Great work Oquijan. Great history lesson and well worth the read to catch up on the goings on since I have been gone. To put it in perspective how long I have been gone Jana H.'s card Californian Suit (#167) was the last new card I got before losing everything I had to a massive OS and HD crash. Great to be back!!

Promotions and special offers.

The way to lure people into a product is a very important aspect for any company. Of course, once you manage to interest people about the product, you need an strategy to turn that people into paying customers. And, once they become paying customers, you have to find ways to keep them interested and spending money.

This little article is not about advertising, though, but rather about some promotional deeds and the proverbial carrot in front of your nose.

The free card move

The people that never get an invitation like that, still had the chance to score a free show through other adult sites that have a promotional agreement with Totem. As mentioned before, you can see some chicks here wearing t-shirts with the "Freeones" logo. If you install the software using the promotion in that site, you get a full show of one of those chicks.

Also, you might have noticed that many one card users have Vicky S's Golden River as their only show. Well, that's because that card is also a promotion in many sites advertising VG, not because everybody is crazy about miss Vicky S. Hum, actually, i am, but didn't get her as a present cause i came here through a damn banner with no price attached to it.


Christmas present

A couple of years ago, the company offered a Christmas present of sorts. The conditions to that promotion are lost in time and under a lot of dust. Despite my inquiring efforts, didn't get anymore insight about this matter. All i know is that it seems that you got an undetermined number of free tickets after buying an undetermined number of tickets of after spending some amount of money.

Not a lot of ho, ho, ho! there, i know, but it was better than coal in the socks,i guess.


Valentine's Day Special

Back on 2008, there was an special offer consistent in a booster pack that included 12 high rated girls for around ten bucks. Not a lot of information about this one in the forums, but seems that it was a fixed booster pack with the same chicks for everybody, so several buyers asked to remove the cards duplicated in their collections after buying the booster pack. I suppose that was a ***** in the... hu, neck for the company.

Anyway, this Valentine's day special is surely the origin of the booster packs as we know them. And speaking of...

Booster Packs

About a year ago, when i joined the site, there was a welcome booster pack, a mix of 12 girls for about 10 dollars. This booster pack is available at least since march, 2008, and only available to users with zero cards in their collections. I recall that i didn't like the mixing and ended up buying a Big Boobs one as my first one. Of course, later i decided to give it a try, but the 12 cards booster pack wasn't available for me anymore and that thing was out of my reach forever, lol. I dunno if that welcome pack is still available for the newbies this days, but i suppose so.

On may 20, 2008, in the thread "Boosters Packs" (where else?), Rex announced the introduction of 5 of current booster packs selections:

"There are 5 boosters packs of 10 girls: blondes, brunettes, stockings, big boobs and bikini that are made of the 10 best remaining girls you're still missing in that category.

Booster packs are displayed randomly in the left column and at the top of the browse girls page."

Also, the Duos Booster pack was added a little later.

Since the booster packs were then changing according to your collection, they became a nice way to gather chicks with a less randomness factor than a subscription, spending basically one buck per card that it is cheaper than buying with tickets, even if you're not very fond of some of the girls included there.

Imho, there should be a link to all the available booster packs, though, cause this random booster pack pop up requires a lot of page refreshing to get the booster pack you're looking for and it is kinda annoying.

As a side note, on October 15, 2009, Rex announced new booster packs to come. Asians, Readheads, Army chicks and girls wearing latex and leather outfits were mentioned as possibilities. Still nothing on that front, but maybe they are waiting to get enough chicks that fit into those categories. I recall i suggested a "Czech Girls" booster pack back then, as a certain way to keep a booster pack always available for everyone.

The Special one ticket offer eviluti... er... evolution

As mentioned sevaral times before (see the above index), there was a cool special offer system that offered you all the chicks "visiting" you in your calendar in the softaware. Due to events exposed before, the calendar was removed on July 02, 2009, and the special one ticket offer was placed in the website.

That special offer consisted in a single card at one time that was replaced by another after a fixed stock, 400 copies, was depleated by users buying the card.

Although the Totem fellows tried to convince the users that the change was for better and that it was "funnier" for the users, the truth is that almost everybody ***** the system. It was boring, frustraiting, repetitive (see page 4, "The reign of Morgane"), and basically pissed off anyone that lacked the ***** philosophy of Saint Therese of Lisieux.

The only "bright" side, if any, was that the new releases were placed as specials on the same day of the release, giving birth to the "camping days", when users waited to fight for one of the 400 copies that, in many cases, were the only specials that the fully stocked members and even midway stocked members had. Very bad days, man.

The VIP status was created as a little compensation to the most dedicated members, ergo the heavy spenders, giving them a partially restored calendar, making the trailers available for those one ticket special offers again and, by that little action, taking the "old timers" off them backs. For a while, anyway. Shesh, don't make start with that, lol. Hum, i'll restart by myself later.


Enter Hustlergirls

To date, the Hustlergirls site is a mystery to many. Well, back on January, 2009, some users spotted an identical site to VGHD, but under the name of the famous porn brand Hustler. Many thought it was a cloned site of this one, but it was actually a promotional agreement between Totem and Larry Flint's company. The site was identical to VG for all purposes, except, and that's why i'm talking about it here, that site used to run a different special offer.

Yup, installing both softwares gave you the chance to buy in both places and actually making the special offer a two options choice. Not a big deal, but better than one.

But, at some point, they settled down the special offer to be the same in both sites so it was back to square one.

VIP users with both softwares installed had twice as much trailers to chose from as specials.

The Half-Price Holiday special

On December 18, 2009, the company runned a really successful promotion. The whole VG girls collection was offered for one ticket instead of two. After all that time with a single card as an special, it was a rampage not seeing since Alexander The Great sacked the Reign of Persia. People went from almost nothing to platinum and even VIP in a matter of hours.

It was so good that the Half-Price Holiday special was still available after some time into the current year and the company manifested the intention to make the one ticket for all you wanted a permanent thing. At the end, they didn't, but after all that goodness, returning to the single special offer would had been a little less than ***** to the users, so...


The Eight cards a day one ticket special offer

On January 14, 2010, Celine announced the arrival of the current special offer. A selection of 8 chicks everyday in the website for one ticket each.

Once this offer was in place, the cards in the Hustlergirls site were different again than those in the VG site, so there were in fact 16 cards available for those with both softwares installed. And, as before, some time later the cards were made the same for both sites and we were back to square two.

Spoiling the VIP status

Not too long ago, the once exclusive VIP special offer was handled to everyone and their uncle, making the red star users as important the next freeloader (i told you i would be restarting by myself, lol).

Despite several promises made by the company to implement a new deal for the VIPs, it has been more than 6 months now and counting waiting for the before mentioned benefit.

Last news about this topic are that the topic was to be discussed in a monday meeting like 18 days ago. Guess we shall wait now till the world cup is over, and then after the VG2 remakes are done, and then after Godot finally arrives and it will surely be announced to be implemented the very next day after the world expires on December, 2012.

That's it, fellows. Thanks a lot to Starryk and Cartref for the time and info provided to me in this occasion.

Until the next time. ;)

Excellent reading as always, Thanks Oquijan:)

Your detailed historical account is not only great reading for new and old members but is highly entertaining and interesting. What I really enjoy about it is that is educational,, and you know how I enjoy anything educatonal:) What suprises me is how it has remained virtually "spam" free especially of utube garbage. Unlike most of the forum. Of course one has to remember that those spammers do not have sufficient attention span to read something this detailed:)

Since you are nearly catching up to the present with your history I am wondering what we might expect next? Possibly Totem current affairs editorials or even maybe some predictions into the future of Totems plans for the sites? Possibly for the latter I could be of some assistance since I have previously made some predictions that a few even have come to pass:) I'm still waiting for my DB one but feel confident it will:)

However, don't despair Oquijan, you know that it is now nearing weeks end. So with all my usual confidence I can almost assure you that your VIP specials and many other ideas are currently being written into Next Modays Totem Team Staff Meeting. Of which we will hearing the results of in the same prompt fashion as always:)

Thanks, titilate. Lol, well, i still have some old stuff left to post in here, but certainly i could use your clairvoyance skills to help me to clarify some obscure quartets by Nostradamus. This for instance:

"The small band and sect that delight in the spam
Will be sieging the palace where the naked czech dance:
Bringing company from the nearby site of tubes of self,
Will lay boredom and dull jokes all over the place."

Hum, if that one is hard to figure out, this one is even more enigmatic:

"Deep night, sky filled with red stars of fading light
Ghostly shadows in transit through empty halls:
The french lord of the idol secluded behind walls claims to listen,
his court on mondays discuss but nothing will come or be released."

Dunno, those feel related to this place somehow, but their meaning still evades me. ;)

For the fans

I was saving this chapter as the last part of this little thread of mine. I have some material yet to explore and post, but it is time to bring this to an end. So...

Well, we're all here for the girls, i suppose. We have more that a 100 models now in VG, yet the interaction between the models and their fans has been rather scarce, to say the least.

Still, a few of our favorites have some presence in the forums, mostly through Stanzeflasher's mediation, but some as very special star members of the community. Here a compilation of the traces of our beauties i have found while digging in the past of the VG forum. no particular order, though.

This gonna take sometime to post, so please wait before adding comments.

Enjoy. ;)

Carmen Gemini

The first picture was posted on 03 25 2008, in the thread Carmen's Party.

Stanzeflesher: "Carmen sent this picture for all her fans...thanks Carmen, we love you...!!"

The second picture was posted On March 16, 2008, in the thread Printemps, by luckysmart.

The third picture was posted by Carmen Gemini on 03 27 2008, thanking the luckysmart's artwork.

Carmen: "I love it ;) thanks"

The same day, TotemLocks8 posted this: "We love you Carmen!
I've just added you 50 tickets for your active participation in the forum ;-)"

Carmen replied almost one month later:

"TotemLocks8 : wow thanks a lot, now I can watch so many naked girls :)))yupiii"

Well, guess Totem gonna need a little more persuation than that to make the models more willing to hang around, lol.

On September 02, 2008, in the thread Carmen Gemini & Mina Duo, by Rex, the following was announced:

"We are going to produce a duo of Carmen Gemini and Mina on September 11th in our studio in Paris. Needless to say everyone is VERY excited here as we are preparing the last details.

If you have fantasies about what they should do or what they should wear, this is the right time and place to express yourself :)"

So, the enthusiastic users posted multiple suggestions.

Four days later, Carmen posted to give her opinion:

"Hello everyone.
I really like Boorloms outfits (blue and black sexy underwear)I wish I could have it for the duo.
I know Mina unfortunately doesnt like girls so it makes me little bit uncomfortable :(
kiss from Greece
Carmen"

This picture was posted by her along with her greetings.

She posted one or two times more, but that's pretty much all.

Jununger:
"Hi Ariel! Is the image from your club in Prague?"

Some more wondering followed to the initial question. A day later, Ariel replied to the inqueries and posted the third picture that you see here.

"haha... I was long time thinking about your question where is the girl.. After 5 minutes and reading all posts I know what you mean and I was really smilling to your question - ok you were right in your second post.. I was just triing to look on the photographer :-)

"Hello my friends..!! coming back in Paris with 3 new great outfits.. sure you'll appreciate... xoxo all, I love you. Euufraaatttt..lol."

On separate dates, of course, a couple of beauties were pictured with the chalkboard. The second picture belongs to Chems, the third to Morgane. The morgane message was addressed to a female user, by the way.

There is another one, with Miss Roxx, but that one is located in the casting forum and can't be reposted here.

Ice cream in Paris.

Here's a picture of Gwen having an icecream. As you can see, is the same icecream stand as in the Ariel's picture. Dunno if Stanze takes all the girls for an icecream, though, cause two pics hardly makes a patron. Cute pic, nevertheless.

The one in the second picture is Lorena in Paris, with a classic tourist style. Dunno if Stanze is the photograph, but Lorena looks pretty. Also i dunno if she had an icecream before or after the picture was taken or who paid for it, lol.

"I noticed Aria Giovanni is a new member with her blue Totem staff star. So whoever wants to can now extend to her a gracious welcome and actually potentially have her read it. Thus the purpose of this post."

One day later, Rex posted this:

"Aria is in Paris for a few days. I had dinner with her a few night ago and we talked about her posting here. I created her profile, let's all cross fingers and wait for her to show up :)"

Dinner in Paris with Aria Giovanni? Now i know why VIPs have no privileges, Rex got all of them, lol

Aria left this message on February 9, 2009.

"Hello everyone! It is nice to hear that you have enjoyed my striptease's I have done for Virtuagirl. I haven't had a chance to look around the forum but hopefully will be able to soon. Thanks for all of your support...xoxox"

Is she had a look into the forums at all after that, remains as a mystery.

Angelique

On June 11, 2009, in the thread "Angelique in the VGHD-Community?", by Starryk, the lovely french girl was spotted:

"It might be a fake but it could also be that our new Vgirl also joined this community today"

A long time later, on january 8, 2010, Angelique presented herself there:

"hello everyone!

mariahnyc20 is the REAL me!!

wish u all a happy new year!!

take care"

The user name that Angelique gave didn't match her profile, so she came back to clarify:

"SO SORRY!! my pseudo is angienyc20 on Virtuagirl
I ve got ***** as mariahnyc20 is my pseudo on another website^^
I should have created the same^^
really sorry about that
but as you may have seen, my profile picture is a not profesionnal one, that can garantee u that it's really me ;-)

take care"

The second picture was posted on 2010 05 06, in the thread "vote for Angelique!", by SexyMakeUp. We got this message:

hello to all members and specially to the Angelique Fans,

i received an e-mail from Angelique and she asks me to send it to you:

"hello everyone!!

I need your help to be elected the french bunny of the Month on Playboy.fr
I need you to vote!!!! Just fill out the form with your email adress then "valider", you will get an automic email to confirm your vote.

A lot of us went there and voted for this beauty and actually helped her to win the competition, but Playboy France cheated and made her opponent the winner. Bad boys!

i'm the photographer of the vghd photographer! ;-)"
