A Clue To A Future Story

 

 There's a lot going on, and just a little time to write about it. And for one subject, there's a possible time limit. So what's going on here? If you can't wait until Monday, head to Hau Koda (98/9/31) .

Patch Linden Offers Hints of Mobile App On Flickr

 

 

 Patch Linden will be on the Lab Gab later today to talk about upcoming things from Linden Lab later this year. But he's been dropping hints about one thing that will be among them. On Wednesday March 8, he posted a picture on Flickr of him next to a barn, but there were some unfamiliar-looking buttons at the bottom, "What is this place and thing I'm in?"

Then the following day, yesterday on Thursday March 9, he would post a short video on Twitter showing his avatar moving, "And now we walk." The picture showed arrow keys on the screen.

By the looks of things, it seems Linden Lab's been working on a mobile app. Many of the people in Flikr and Twitter thought so too, "I look forward to SecondLife's return on iPad."

So how soon will it be ready? Patch may have a date today on Lab Gab.

The Winter Swaginator Hunt: Clue to Gift Four

This is the fourth week Linden Lab's Winter Swaginator Hunt has been going on. And for a couple days, the clue for gift number four has been up on the Linden blog. But for those whom had a hard time with the previous week's clues and were hoping for something easy, sorry to say that this one is the most vauge of them so far.

It’s winter-y, fun, games and a series of quests. Can you find the gift hidden in the magical chest?  http://bit.ly/2SIOpp1

The link takes you to Portal Park. I guessed the gift was somewhere around Winter Wonderland, and an initial quick search proved fruitless (no, it's not near where the first gift was). Eventually, Gemma Cleanslate found it. So where is it? We can't tell you just yet, but we do suggest keeping a careful eye out. It could be right before your eyes, and you still might not notice.

The location will be revealed this weekend. And next week, the final gift (unless you have a Premium account, in which case there may be one more).

The Winter Swaginator Hunt: Clue to Gift Three

It's the third week of Linden Lab's "Winter Swaginator Hunt." And there's a new gift out for it. The clue posted on the Linden blog goes as follows:

Among sparkling crystals and dangerous rocks, the treasure is hidden inside a magical box! In this Realm, look high, look low. It's hidden nearby a tree that glows.

This was followed by a more direct comment, "Head to Linden Realms in Portal Park!" - https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Portal Park 1/128/128/23

So where in Linden Realms is it? We'll have the location this weekend. But take note Linden Reals has a new obstacle: "air blobs." They appear out of nowhere and knock your character out. So be prepared for a lot of setbacks.

Addition: When I checked later in the evening, the air blobs were gone. There were fewer people in the Realms at the time, so maybe this particular obstacle appears when there's more than a certain number of residents at the time. So maybe check for the present when there aren't so many others around.
