Midnight Madness - May

The next round of Midnight Madness starts May 6th @ midnight SLT. That's 12 am Friday night into Saturday with the second round starting May 7th at noon (12 pm SLT) Midnight Madness boards have a gift limit of 1500L and run for just 12 hours each.

Something a little different about this round....

After each round comes to a close (no later than 12 hours after going live) the "Last Chance" vendors will go live. This will be the very last effort to pick up the gifts only, unlike the Midnight Madness boards, the gift will then be discounted anywhere from 25-50L. These vendors will be limited to just 250 items. These vendors will NOT go live until the MM round of that particular board turns off after 12 hours of the event.

So.... if you missed out on a midnight gift you really wanted. Be sure to be at the store by noon SLT when the Last Chance vendor goes live!

    1. They are vendors that will turn on at the end of the 12 hour MM board. This will be the last effort for people to pick up the MM gifts, but then at a discounted rate of anywhere from 25-50L.

  5. Do we need a HUD for this one and if so, where do we get it?

    1. You do not 'need' it per say since each store will have a participants board but there is one available in the group notice history of the Monthly Midnight Madness group.

  7. Thanks for another great round! I appreciate the efforts made to make it easier to get into the event, such as lower sim limits and efforts being made to educate people about reducing render weight and script counts. Hopefully after this round more people will take care of their own avatar and stop shouting at people in local chat at the different sims.

  8. I have a question, I went to clef de peau last night and could not find the boards, naturally i just thought i wasnt rezzing the boards and finally left after several attempts ... however, i went there again earlier this morning while the sim was empty and couldnt locate the vendors still... can someone tell me where they are located please? I know there is a mens dept and a womens, but i saw them in neither building.

  9. I understand the need to try to reduce lag for these events. However, the ARC of 50k is virtually unattainable. I and a few other friends were completely alpha'd, no HUDs, no attachments, and STILL we were getting TP'd home repeatedly. The aggravation of trying for a solid 10 minutes to get to a store, FINALLY have it rez, then get TP'd out 30 seconds later when there's little more you can do? It's frustrating to say the least. And the ARC reduction didn't seem to improve rezz time or reduce lag.

    1. Im just curious which sims you had trouble with? knock on wood, i have yet to be sent off a sim. I keep my scripts & weight low, but im by no means alpha'd out and Ive had no issues, could it be a computer thing rather than a sim thing? I have seen people wearing so much crap, Im amazed they can move (plus its a little rude lagging everyone so inconsiderately) i think if more people went alpha'd out that would help overall ... I think I may try that next time, for consideration sake.

    2. Hi there, 50K is actually a very reasonable amount and having this restriction makes a HUGE difference in lag and in the boards. A perfect example would be Jian today. The store was operating with out the orb an the board was extremely slow. His board was at 400 while others were over 1000. This was all due to lag. Stores with even more people there bug with an orb were still operating faster.

      The issue is that a lot of people "remove all" or right click and detach things and think everything is off. It's not. And depending on what you have left... maybe it's just a ring... but that ring has high res textures and there for raises your ARC tremendously.

      It completely depends on what you're wearing. The Maitreya body only costs 10K ARC but meanwhile a mans beard could be 50K alone. However, my main point is that it IS achievable and many were getting their ARC to 1000 or less.

      With out the orb or agent restrictions the event would not run smoothly and would be more of a frustration then it's worth.
