==== Setting up your land

====

To begin, decide where the key points you want traffic are at.

  in a shop
  near a sale sign
  leading to a land feature
  on a dance floor
  at a tp point
The options are only limited by your imagination and what your goals are



Next, decide what style of coin placement you will use

  scattered everywhere - all coin types and gems mixed in a big jumble
  lesser valued coins scattered with higher value gems hidden
  hide them all
  strategically placed
Have fun with the set up.Hunters enjoy a little bit of challenge in the game so don't
be afraid to create one


What to expect when you rez a coin

Rezzing a coin creates a debt permission request. For the coin to do its job you need to respond with a yes. It simply gives the coin permission to use the lindens you will put in it and to distribute them to those who click the coin.

   granting debt permissions gives you the ability to add a budget to the coin
   adding a budget to the coin  makes your land appear on the hud and on our website land list
   it also makes hunters appear at your land very quickly

   for this reason I suggest the following
  

If you plan on rezzing a bunch of coins and hiding them and or taking time to place them as you like..go ahead and rez the coins but dont grant debit perms yet. Finish rezzing all the coins and getting them set just right THEN go back and grant perms and fill the coins. This way youre not interrupted in the set up process by hunters.

In placing your coins keep in mind that they must be click-able from no more than 9m away and a method of reaching them must be provided. Hiding coins is encouraged but a small portion of each must be visible. They cannot be placed on restricted portions of your land and no group can be required to access them.

You can find more information about the gold hunt game rules according to our TOS here  https://www.bitofgold.net/social/page.php?i=view-post&id=49 in the section of 1.0 - Land Owner Rules

If you have made sure everything is as it should be , go ahead and fill your coins. Now you can either start a rush with the gold hunt rush station or leave the coins as they are for hunters to locate as they come to explore your land.

To qualify for the ability to start a gold rush you will need

  A. 10 silvers and ten gold and any other denomination you wish
  or
  B. 5 of each coin denomination
  

Either way is fine but they must be filled to cause the station to count them as qualified. You may, of course,place more than the needed amounts.

How Land Ranking works

The following page explains how your land will be ranked and what determines its placement in the land list

http://www.goldtokens.net/blogs/625/gold-hunt-automated-land-ranking-algorithm

Land Points are reset monthly & always the most hunted Gold Hunt Lands are promoted on TOP.

Coins give following points to LANDS when collected:

2 p Scrap
3 p Iron
4 p Bronze
5 p Silver
6 p Gold
7 p Emerald
7 p Ruby
8 p Diamond

Setting your budget and goals will help you decide which coins/gems to use. Tthe following table details what each coin is going to do

COIN       Re-Collection Time             Re-Spawn Time
Scrap         1 HOUR                              15 MINUTES
Iron            3 HOURS                             1 HOUR
Bronze       6 HOURS                             3 HOURS
Silver        12 HOURS                             6 HOURS
Gold          24 HOURS                           12 HOURS
Emerald    24+ HOURS                           1 DAY DELAY RANDOM
Ruby         24+ HOURS                           1 DAY DELAY RANDOM
Diamond   24+ HOURS                           1 DAY DELAY RANDOM

Gold Hunt Landowners can now let us (mods or Wili Clip) know to set their GH Land as no COIN2COIN teleport allowed.

It informs all hunters in a GOLD RUSH notice & also after each coin is collected about no coin2coin tp!

Disrespecting this land rule leads to all GT games BAN.
