Last two days Greenies forgot to send gifts to those brave avatars who help to them keep their kitchen clean from the 8-legged pests we call 'virtual roaches'. Our cute extraterrestrials apologise, and wish to say they rectified that error and do appreciate the loyalty of their pest control troops! Making sure this will never happen again, and so you know when exactly you should go roach hunting, here is the list for prizes that will be awarded to the best roach-killer of the day for the month of October:
- Greenies Midnight Hoverboard (Gift Box) - September 29 to October 05
A stylish virtual transportation for those with a need of speed.. and balancing skills. Where the normal Greenies Hooverboard was mostly known for it's speed and racing capabilities, the Midnight Hoverboard has all that and adds a stylefish, futuristic, black with neon exterior to it. Adapting a more human and less extraterrestrial product design, the Greenies design team has outdone itself yet again! - Greenie Tunnel of Light Raver (Gift Box) - October 06 to October 12
Fun looking Greenie with dazzling glow effects that has landed on the Tunnel of Light. The T-shirt has UFO LED display, fluorescent pink earrings and flashy belt. The raver attitude comes with it. - Sandbox Kneeling Greenie (Gift Box) - October 13 to October 19
This little Sandbox Greenie, is playful and utterly cute! With his tiny little bucket and shovel, he shall help you build your house, play together with your child avatars and prim babies and get the neko poo out of your sandbox. From the Prim Greenies Collection. - Sunbathing Greenie (Lavender) (Gift Box) - October 20 to October 28
Complimenting Mr Feel the Green's blue handkerchief, there is Sunbathing Greenie, which was spared from his friend sunscreen-writing on him. Actually, lotion still needs to be put on him, so we included a massage/sunscreen animation, so you can make sure he does not burn his sensitive green skin. Make sure to rezz him on a flat surface, for comfortable lying! From the Prim Greenies Collection.
We've made sure you'll get gift boxes, so you can keep your 'top roach killer' prize yourself, or donate it to a good friend, partner or even virtual mistress. This is also an excellent occasion to honour our Top Roach Killers with excellent Zap Gun skills: Thumper Boucher (2862 slaughtered roaches), Telli GossipGirl (1275 pests less), Ravin Lunasea (zapped down 1035), Desiree Whalen (1002 roaches need a body bag) and Simon Ho (535 vermin casualties). They will all receive a Golden Greenie Teddy Award for Excellent and Extraordinary Achievements in the Fields of Greenieness and Roach Killing. Continue the good fight! For new soldiers, please read the instructions on how to kill a virtual cockroach.

Oh, my... I'm gonna have to
Tue, 09/30/2008 - 23:22 — Ravin LunaseaOh, my... I'm gonna have to kill me some more roaches now! I must say, those are some very highly enticing prizes... the roaches aren't gonna know what hit 'em. Bwahahahahaha! (I will say that I'm always gonna be fond of the classic "roach-on-a-stick"... never fails to gross people out.) :)

Enjoy your prizes! (and don't drop & break them whilst roach hunting!)

Wed, 10/01/2008 - 18:29 — Ravin LunaseaHere's another name idea for the highly sought-after Golden Greenie... what about the Excellent Golden Greenie Teddy for Impeccability in Mitigating the Extermination of Roaches (aka, EGGTIMER)? :o)
Hmmm. Does that one come with
Wed, 10/01/2008 - 22:40 — Vint testing the new reCAPTCHA (not verified)Hmmm. Does that one come with a dictionary then? I definitely need to look up 'impeccability' and 'mitigating'. (But sure those words are interesting enough to learn!)
And an eggtime, isn't that sometime people used in the kitchen before microwaves had countdowns/alarm clocks? :D
(Vint testing the reCAPTCHA)
"Impeccable" = reliable,
Wed, 10/01/2008 - 22:55 — Ravin Lunasea"Impeccable" = reliable, excellent, noteworthy, perfect
"Mitigate" = ensure, help, assist
As for eggtimers, some people still use them... hey, that'd be a neat thing to add to the Greenies' kitchen... an eggtimer by the stove? Maybe make it so that when people turn the timer, the stove turns on or something? Ideas ideas...
By the way (and correct me if this was already done), but did anyone send out any group notices or anything about the new prizes for the roach game? I was the only one shooting at them yesterday as far as I know, and that hoverboard is a pretty nice prize. Those new prizes might tempt some people to drop by and compete a little bit, who knows?

This *just* happened. Out of the blue, I got the genius idea to do so. *coughs* As for the competing, let's see if they can get past you, Thumper & the other top (zap)guns... . =)
I must say though, that for now, I think we always had 'nifty' prizes for the top roach slaughter of the day (ok, except for those few days we forgot to put prizes in. but that's recitified. *blush*)

I agree, I've always liked the roach game prizes. Of course, it's worth playing it anyway just to see that satisfying explosion of roach bits flying into the air... but goodies are always nice. :) I welcome any competition knock me and Thumper and Telli and the others off the top board... but we won't make it easy!
