Seasons greetings to all our Moguls and VIP Members – a quick roundup, to end the year in style 🎅
Greetings Gents,
This update is a bit late, due to some technical issues on the site. We have some groovy news for Moguls, so let’s get to it…
DESERT STORM
At the time of writing, Shantal is still shooting with us, and Project Desert Storm is just about finished. Maybe a few days left to go finishing up a few Custom movies, then the Lady leaves us, extremely well bred. Our Ladies get through a lot of dog loving during these project shoots, it’s nice to know we could all make it happen for the Lady.
So, with Christmas around the corner – plus editing, processing and uploading, we are expecting Chapter 1 of Desert Storm to drop mid to late January. A little something to look forward to. ILZ is getting the hang of doing teasers and shorts now, so you’ll have something to wet your whistles in the meantime. Those will be posted in the VIP Telegram Channel – more on that in a moment.
Usually the price of Desert Storm would increase when the shooting is complete. However, due to the site problem setbacks, we did not have much time to warn everyone in advance. So, to give you last-minute Moguls a chance, the price of Desert Storm will increase on:
1st January 2025
That gives you a couple more weeks to join the project, so you don’t miss out. Get your skates on, and get in touch.
BOAR CORPS.
The very long awaited Boar Corps. Project is finally coming to a close. As mentioned in the VIP Channel last month – the main project has been finished for some time. The problem has been the bonus movie. It seems Pumbaa has become a bit aggressive and hard to deal with. As you can see from Chelle’s poor bum below…
Ouch, I think I need to kiss that better. These pigs really are a handful.
Since it’s only the bonus movie holding things up, what we’ve decided to do is go ahead and continue releasing the project movies. That then gives TheSenor more than a year to either:
A. get Pumbaa under control
B. get a new boar
C. for us to seek out an alternative boar owner and we are speaking to some – or worst case scenario
D. not do the bonus movie on this project, and refund some of the payment to all Moguls on the project.
I gather we probably won’t need to do D. as there are a lot of bits and pieces from the project that will probably make for a nice bonus movie. But however we do it, it will at least get the project moving, and allow us to start releasing project movies. We are expecting Chapter 2 to be released around Christmas – it’s already edited, and ILZ is busy exporting all the versions now. That will give Boar Corps. Moguls something nice to watch around the festive season. Frankly, I will be glad to see this project finished and out of the way – compared with straightforward, smooth-running projects like Desert Storm, these experimental projects are a lot of hard work.
Also before I forget – the price for the Project will increase around the same time as Chapter 2 is released. Let’s say January 1st to give latecomers a bit of time, the same time as Desert Storm will increase.
PROJECT EXTENSIONS
As you know, our Moguls and VIPs are very trusted Members who have exclusive access to certain things. I’ve just updated the VIP area on the site to explain this more clearly. A new thing we will be doing, is Project Extensions.
How this came about – we have several unclaimed Custom Movies with Raven; the Members in question paid the deposit, then disappeared without returning to pay the balance and collect their movies. We have money tied up in those movies, we’ve waited a while, but we can’t wait forever. Instead of adding these titles to our existing portfolio of private custom movies, we’ve decided to do something new, and make them available to a select group of Members.
Moguls on Raven’s original Project are eligible to purchase Raven’s Quest X1, and any further extensions to that Project. Moguls with 2 or more Mogul Projects under their belts are also eligible. We have to make it 2 Projects, because of course, undesirable characters can always join 1 Project before we kick them out.
We are starting to implement a new Trust Level system for Moguls and VIPs – VX2 Level means you are a Mogul who has supported 2 Projects. VX3 is 3 Projects, and so on. VIPs who have funded our work in other ways, such as Custom Movies, Personal Services and such, your VX Level will reflect the support you’ve provided.
As mentioned in the Project Extensions page Gang – whether or not there are Extensions on a Project, and if/when they will be released, will be a closely guarded secret. So please don’t ask 🙂 Some Projects will, some won’t – some might have Extensions much later, if we do a few more shoots with a Model for example. All the more reason to keep your Member account in good standing, which the vast majority of you do.
So then Gang, for everyone clamoring for more Raven, we are delighted to announce Raven’s Quest X1. Go check it out, if you have not already..
VIP TELEGRAM CHANNEL
When we first opened the VIP Channel, it was intended just as a way of sending out occasional news to our Moguls and VIPs. I did not want to drive everyone mad with constant alerts. As such, we kept it fairly quiet.
Well we’ve done a 180 on that, by popular demand. Now have recruited Mr C13 who is helping us to post tasty treats in the channel daily. Mostly daily 🙂 Also by popular demand – ILZ has found some time to start putting out some teaser trailers and video shorts from Mogul Projects (and anything else nice that comes along). We do allow our VIP Group to share those pics and vids, so you might seem them somewhere else. Or, you might not. So if you Moguls want to be absolutely sure, please do join the VIP Channel.
It’s the quickest and easiest way for us to get Project news to you – for example, I posted the Boar Corps. update in there back in late November. It takes much longer to do a site update, so if you are not in that channel, you will be waiting around a bit longer for news.
I went through and counted around 30 Moguls who had requested an invite link, and did not use them. Or, they did not use them before they expired. So don’t be shy – if you are a Mogul or other VIP, and you would like to get into the VIP Channel (and it’s useful for us too), please get in touch, and we’ll either send you a new invite link, or we will reactivate your old one.
SEASONS GREETINGS
That’s about everything for this time, so all that remains is for everyone here to send a big festive thanks to all our Moguls and Patrons for supporting our work and helping us do the things we do. The new year is just around the corner, and with all currently active Projects largely out of the way – bar a bit of editing and emailing – we can look forward to fresh fun and frolics. Here’s wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and speak to you soon 🙂
