I IM'd a linden about this and they said they were closing it down due to lack of interest.

Let's Lobby them to re-open it :)

if it's lack of interest it might be cause they didn't push it very hard. i barely heard of it a couple times and still don't know what it's about. neat name though.

Vive La Evolution

Hey everyone,

Thanks for your comments. It's good to hear some people liked the contest. We're rethinking what types of incentives work for referrals. Unfortunately, I don't think there was much interest around Vive. If you have any suggestions about referral incentives, either post it here or email [email]vive@secondlife.com[/email]. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Btw, we just picked a winnner at the end of last week. I was waiting to hear back from her before I posted her name. She replied over the weekend. Congrats to Persephone Phoenix.

Thanks!

Catherine

I think increased $L incentives are always a good motivator. Also...I am no longer able to see my referal link anywhere on the website. If people can't find their referal links it makes it tough to use......

In one of the previous Vive contests we were told we would get shirts for refering 5 members. Myself and several others I know did refer 5. We never got our shirts, even after posting in the forums about it. I would like a shirt, however seeing as I got burned before, I wasn't very motivated to refer anyone this time around.

Congratulations Persephone!!

T-shirts

If you think you have referred 5 people or more to Second Life (and they've actually signed up), please send your size, SL name, real name and address to [email]vive@secondlife.com[/email] and we'll put your t-shirt in the mail this week.

We don't automatically send out t-shirts and frequently Residents think they have referred 5 or more users and actually, when we check, they haven't. However, I've been known to make a mistake (or two)...so send me your info and I'll get back to you with a confirmation and send your t-shirt.

Thanks,
Catherine

p.s. last time I looked we were running dangerously low on Large t-shirts. Keep that in mind when you send your size. Bub wears a Medium and it fits him quite nicely!
