Second Life's been growing fast -- very fast -- but the nightly Dwell Pool paid out to the owners of popular locales in Second Life hadn't been matching that growth.
So we doubled it.
What had been a relatively modest nightly pool of L$12,000 ballooned last week into a vastly more satisfying L$24,000. And there's more -- it's going to keep growing based on the number of active users. That means more money for more top attractions. Keep up the good work -- and we'll keep rewarding you!
A Note About Dwell: Dwell is recorded anytime a Resident spends at least five minutes at or over a bit of land. Dwell is weighted against the total amount of time a Resident spends in Second Life. So every Resident has the same influence whether they are on 5 minutes or 24 hours within a 24 hour period. The reward for the landowner is based on the portion of the dweller's day they spend at a given place. By the way, the dwell of the landowner does not help.
