After many months of keeping this project a big secret, it was a big relief to be able to reveal TAG! Gacha to everyone at the start of this month. And before we knew it - the event is nearly upon us and the Gacha Keys are coming in at a steady rate.
Gachatopians spoke... and we listened. All our beloved events had a major flaw in common - and that was having a server capacity that was way below the demand of the consumers. (i.e: the dreaded message: TP cannot be completed because region is full) This is of course not the fault of the organisers but the limitation of the platform that is Second Life. In addition, lag for these crowded events was usually brutal. Again... related to the huge performance demands on a server that was heaving with avatars and lots of goodies to be bought.
For TAG! Gacha we tried to circumvent this problem by spreading the server load and what better way to do this than to bring customers back to the main stores of creators. From Booger's giant nose to Olive's giant um... Olive... From surreal landscapes to fantastical ones... From humble little rabbit holes to spectacular architectural achievements... when you are hopping from store to store and discovering new ones, you'll be wondering why you never visited earlier.
Halloween is our favourite time of year and from what we can see, TAG! Gacha creators seem to think so too! The quality of products on offer is simply outstanding. We have new up and coming brands amongst established and beloved names.
Keep an eye on our TAG! Gacha Flickr feed where you can look at pictures specific to TAG! Gacha. If you have gacha photos to submit, please do so in our Gachatopia flickr group.
TAG! Gacha tip: If the region you are trying to get into is full, you can skip it on the HUD and visit it again later.
