F!ND© 2.0 (A New Direction)

noreply@blogger.com (F!ND©) — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 09:38:00 +0000

We put a hold to the Current Construction on F!ND© Island,
Put the Neko City Kaufrausch up for sale, and been around the
table with virtual pen's and papers for days.

We closely looked on all changes Second Life® has been going trough
in the past year, and came to the conclusion. that we needed to change
the basics of F!ND© to be able to maintain our steady growth

we still feel that doing business in a virtual environment is the future
and Second Life® is still the leading platform to make this possible

We have maintained our growth, during the VAT affair,
The Gambling Ban, The Bank Ban and the huge downfall of virtual Land
Value, and the Latest Copyright rules. We fully understand the exodus
this caused for RL Companies out of SL®, sins Linden Labs made most
of these changes without a prior warning.

SL® is Changing, no doubt and most of these changes where necessary
in the development of the platform. F!ND© always believed that
seeing SL® as a game was a common misunderstanding, in fact we
where always looking at it as the new way of browsing the Internet,
3Dimensional help desks, info centers, product presentations and so on.

This will be the new direction F!ND© will focus on, RL and SL® Product
Presentations, The Promotion of new talented designers within SL®,
and advertisement trough our growing multi Sim network

We see a bright future for SL® and F!ND© so all we can say is
stay tuned to our blog feed .. there is much much more to come!

Cash Crash & Party Crasher UPDATE

noreply@blogger.com (F!ND©) — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 14:14:00 +0000

It's a Strange and Paranoid world since Linden Labs™
Applied the "Gambling Ban" within Second life

We as game makers feel this especially, there are no official
guideline about what is considered wagering and what isn't
before we release any game into Second Life® we make sure
it's passed to the official game Linden for consideration,
the last thing we need is months worth of scripting wasted

Unfortunately due to this unclear situation, SLexchange one
of Second life's related market places, decided to remove
Cash Crash and the Cash Crash Party Crasher from their
website .. even tho we contacted the Lindens and had no
objections about the release one month ago

So, as of today you can only buy these two games in world
Visit our Cash Crash HQ to find the vendors

Funky Monnett vs Peter Stindberg - Case Closed!!

noreply@blogger.com (Funky Monnett) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 11:28:00 +0000

Currently there are a number of blog post circling the Second Life
and SL DJ Scene, about a Business disagreement between myself
and Peter Stindberg, owner of Babel Translations.

I don't wanna go in to much detail cause this is in my eyes a private matter, involving miscommunication, hard headedness from both sides resulting in emotional responses.. Yes, Virtual business can get rough sometimes

However Peter and myself have had a long conversation, and all issues,
between us are resolved, up to a point where we continue our business
relation in good standing

Peter has removed all blog post about this at my requests

Unfortunately, like things go in this (small) blogging community,
some people felt the need to copy or comment on this issue in their personal logs (without contacting me, or asking about the other side of the story) and i like to ask this people in particular to remove all content,
regarding this situation.

I like to point out that I am as always very serious about my RL and SL
business, and i regret the incident regarding Peter, we are all human
we all have misunderstandings and react wrongly on them sometimes

I hope with this public post, I have settled the matter once and for all,
so Me and Peter can get on with our business together

F!ND© is always looking for the most talented designers in
SL™ to support and promote. a few months ago we walked
into a small shop called "Lolita", and without hesitation we
invited "Caddy Stardust" to the F!ND© mainstore.
We where so impressed by the designs that we had
no choice and offered her a mainstore in Kaufrausch City

Caddy was already looking for a way to revise and
professionalize her collections, so we combined our
promotion skills with Caddy's design talent
and DO-NUTS© was born

Caddy is working hard on a brand new collection,
so keep your eye on this blog or visit the
Do-Nuts© Mainstore

Here is a little preview from the
new spring 2008 Collection

So.. What are you waiting for .. let's DO-NUTS©
Visit the Mainstore, Or buy on Onrez.com

Cash Crash & Cash Crash Party Crasher

One of the New Directions F!ND© is Moving in,
is in world Game Development and Promotion

Around April 2008 we joined forces with
"Tats" owner and master scripter Flater Baxter
and sat around the table to see what Sim / Shop /
Store owners really needed. The answer is simple,
Visitors, Name Branding, and well ... Money

With Second Life™ going trough major changes,
we realized the "Old" ways of advertisement are
not cutting it anymore. A Changed Search engine,
instability in the Second Life™ grid, Lower
Sim prices, resulting in more and more little
splinter groups of people trying to make ends
meet at the end of each Tier month

So we came up with a solution;
Fun games that not only make you a few Lindens,
are SL™ TOS Compliant but also can be used as
traffic and advertisement tool

Cash Crash Games first release was called "Cash Crash"
shortly followed by the "Cash Crash Party Crasher"

Visit the Cash Crash HQ on F!ND Island

CASH CRASH
(best placed in : Shops, Mall's, Clubs, Arcades, etc)

The aim of Cash Crash is to bring real visitors to
your SL™ Locations while giving you the opportunities
to earn a little money on the side.

The Cash Crash game boards are connected to a server,
the server is linked to the Cash Crash Website
and to the Free Cash Crash HUD who show the locations
of all active boards, All a player has to do is set a strategy
teleport to the landmarks, enter the game and win!

Benefits for Cash Crash Players:

The opportunity to win Linden Dollars™
Discover new Shops & Interesting Locations in Second Life™
Get Paid even when your off line or off sim

Benefits For Cash Crash Owners:

Real people visiting your locations
Your landmarks in the Cash Crash HUD and Cash Crash Website
10% profit from every game played (80% goes to the Jackpot)
Entertainment value to your location

Cash Crash Party Crasher
(Best Placed in: Clubs, Busy Area's)

The Party Crasher is very Similar to the Cash Crash
boards, It has all the same features but with 1 difference

The Crasher was made with a traditional
(and now illegal) sploder in mind it requires a minimum
of 10 people to enter before the jackpot will pay out,
unlike the Cash Crash boards you can only enter in each round once
if you make a second entry 100% of your bet goes directly
into the jackpot, this feature was created so club owners
can up the stakes when the party is booming

the Party crashers also connect to the website
and the Cash crash HUD and show their location
to the potential players / visitors

Benefits for Party Crasher Players:

The opportunity to win Linden Dollars™
Discover new Clubs & Interesting Locations in Second Life™
Get Paid even when your off line or off sim

Benefits For Party Crasher Owners:

Real people visiting your locations
Your landmarks in the Cash Crash HUD and Cash Crash Website
10% profit from all unique entries
All multiple entries go 100% into the jackpot
Entertainment value to your location

As Kaufrausch City grew, We felt the need to offer
more then just Urban Styled Designers and Products,
We wanted to bring the "Uptown" feel of the old
F!ND Store back into Kaufrausch, with the help of
JADOR a brand new store got created

Uptown Kaufrausch (F!ND Mainstore)

The City Grows fast, more designers jump on the F!ND© train
and people start to discover the sim, we realized that we needed
some entertainment next to the shops, quickly the idea of an arcade
was born

"The First Kaufraush Arcade"

we started with a few games of Zyngo, Hokus Pokus,
A Pipz, Quince and Shrooms

Today the Arcade is moved into the Cash Crash Building
and the game collection had an update with Games Like
DMC, King Bing, Deal and our own joined Releases
Cash Crash and The Cash Crash Party Crasher

Visit the Arcade in Kaufraush

The Concept Worked, and the "Known" Second Life (tm)
Brands and Designers found a place @ F!ND©

Some Of the First Brands at the Bourbourton Store:

B&G, WRONG, Moonlight Animations, Mia D.
Beautiful Sin, Jada Style and Primitive Design

After about 4 months we became aware of the problems
mainland gave us, so it was time for the next step

"Kaufrausch City"

The idea of turning our store into a real urban city became
reality, We adjusted our brands a little to suit a more Urban
Styled public, we grew tails and ears and jumped into the
so called "NEKO" Hype

Needful Things, SAHA, Folgies, House of Eyes,
Crazy Bitch Design, iNFLiCT, TonkTastic, and
Puli Animations Populated our
Pirate Neko, Harbor Hangout

It's almost a year ago now, June 2007

Two Second Life Avatars met in a Virtual Bar.
One was the manager of the Pink Pyramid Strip club,
the other DJ in his own SLDJ Lounge
They Started talking about Second Life,
Business and Making Money inside a Virtual World

They closed their Clubs, and started a small mall in a
Mainland sim called Bourbourton, they had one rule;
everything sold in Their Stores should be quality products
by Serious or Professional Designers, No so called Freebie Sellers,
Rip Off Artists or People that Sell Virtual Trash

They Also Needed Powerful Brand Name,
and put their virtual heads together and started playing
with their Second Life names

Funky Monnett and Deeka Hold ..
Funky & Deeka .. F & D .. FND ..
and so F!ND© Was Officially Born.

You Found it @ F!ND©, the Best SL Products and Designers
