As per the usual, I'll talk about various topics of Caledon, with time for questions and comments as we progress through the meeting. |
| 14:03 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Occupancy in Caledon has mostly remained the same this past month. A little up, a little down, about break-even overall. |
| 14:03 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Capitol K - The Cockerel Calls |
| 14:05 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This past month I have been working on building the Calendar systems I think I mentioned last month. In summary, the events posted in Discord, are fed into a Google calendar, and with some programming on my backend, I can parse those events into the events I post on social media, as well as simplified json output for bringing that data inworld. |
| 14:05 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I plan to use the inworld data at new Telehubs for the regions. |
| 14:06 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This URL will change, but this is what I am playing with at the moment. When I am done with it, anyone who's interested can pull data from the new URL I'll make. |
| 14:06 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
For those script savvy folks, I hope you'll be interested. |
| 14:07 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
My hope is to have a list of todays events at each telehub landing. |
| 14:07 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Also using that I am going to have a nice web page for Caledon, and the events. |
| 14:08 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Any questions about any of that so far? |
| 14:08 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
:) |
| 14:08 |
KayCooper |
Sounds great |
| 14:08 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Will anything be done with the current Caledon wiki page? |
| 14:08 |
|
Ali (sungali) nods. |
| 14:09 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I do not have control of that, but I would like to set up a proper media wiki, like we have at The Wastelands. I will need lots of help for that though, as I can't research and author everything that's out there. |
| 14:09 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
If anyone is interested in helping me with this, let me know. |
| 14:09 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Hide & Seek - Missing Boy |
| 14:09 |
|
Katie (katie.canningham) raises a paw to volunteer to help with research |
| 14:10 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
Jorge once wanted to maintain such a Wiki. Maybe he is still interested. Jorge, are you here?? |
| 14:10 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I'll help where I can. |
| 14:10 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I'm writing names down. |
| 14:10 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
i'm a writer and i can help research as well... not that katie will need help :-D |
| 14:10 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I don't see Jorge on the nearby list. |
| 14:10 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
A wiki page is by its nature a group effort, so the more the merrier |
| 14:11 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Yes. I have a few helpers on The Wastelands wiki, and you can get rather lost in all the info there. |
| 14:11 |
|
Katie (katie.canningham) hugs Tora |
| 14:11 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
hugs katie cat back |
| 14:11 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
seriously, the more the merrier! |
| 14:11 |
KayCooper |
I might be able to help depending on the info required |
| 14:11 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
and the more scope |
| 14:11 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
the old wikis have their texts under CC license so far I know |
| 14:11 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
What wiki Wasteland Wiki uses? I am more familiar with Wikipedia. |
| 14:11 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Medawiki is wikipedia. So same thing Elfbiter |
| 14:11 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
https://wiki.the-wastelands.org |
| 14:12 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
yah, elf, it looks and works exactly the same as far as i've ever seen |
| 14:12 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
this is the caledon wiki I know about: https://secondlife.fandom.com/wiki/Independent_State_of_Caledon |
| 14:12 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Yeah, I have seen that one. I'll start working on a plan for that, and I have folks names here written down. |
| 14:13 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
we might want to switch to a wiki source that's not so ad-heavy |
| 14:13 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Haha yeah. I'll host it. |
| 14:13 |
Owlie Fairelander |
There was another Caledon website run by Excalibur as well. |
| 14:13 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
here is another Caledon Wiki: https://web.archive.org/web/20110129075816/http://www.steampunkwiki.com/wiki/Caledon_Wiki |
| 14:13 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I was just messing with my server and SSL certs before this meeting. |
| 14:14 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Beth Gibbons - Beyond the Sun |
| 14:14 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Cool! We'll have to gather all the info and distill it a bit. :) |
| 14:14 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Ravelli, that might have been the one Excalibur set up...not sure at this point...but wow, it still has Snook's ad on there. |
| 14:15 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Old info could be updated |
| 14:15 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
maybe Excalibur still can be reached to get some data in whatever format |
| 14:15 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
And yeah, I don't run ads on the resources I have. Tier pays for that. |
| 14:15 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
ANd of course, maybe there would be history section.... |
| 14:16 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Me personally, I am interested in all the old role-play lore. I remember some ancient stuff, and if I make changes or additions to Caledon, I like to tell little stories based on it. Give it vague reason and meaning. :) |
| 14:16 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I'm weird like that. |
| 14:16 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
How 'bout an "I remember" page that people can add to, as well as a Memorial Page? |
| 14:16 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Okay. OCTOBER. It was both long and very short. |
| 14:16 |
Nyree Rain |
There were some wonderful role-play events |
| 14:17 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
and links to Caledon YouTube videos... |

Katie (katie.canningham) hands Owlie a nice cup of cocoa |

Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
And flying krakens... |

Nyree Rain |
Rampaging robots. |
| 14:18 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Vampire Weekend - Gen-X Cops |
| 14:18 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Elfbiter, if you want to start to compile a list in a notecard, I can make an official youtube playlist of old videos. |
| 14:18 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
Attacking teddy bears. Exploding turkeys. The giant spider that gave out flowers. The volcano multiple duchesses threw themselves into between drinking mai tais. |
| 14:18 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
I actually considered anti-Kraken missiles but decided to scrap the project... |
| 14:19 |
|
Ravelli Ormstein adds a melting polar bear |
| 14:19 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Doesn't seem like Excaliber is in any of the Caledon groups anymore. |
| 14:19 |
Nyree Rain |
My kraken Cthu thanks you for scrapping that project. |
| 14:19 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Have you considered adding a volcano, Neo? |
| 14:19 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This past October, I had to finish up the Community Gateway for The Wastelands, as well as build the annual Halloween event. A lot of RL came at me fast, and my cat also got very ill -- but at least he beat his diabetes. I think it was the hardest month I've ever worked in a few years. Do not want to do it again. |
| 14:20 |
Nyree Rain |
So glad your cat is okay |
| 14:20 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Cat 1, Diabetes 0 - yay! |
| 14:20 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Well done, kitty-cat. |
| 14:20 |

Katie (katie.canningham) |
thankee Magda! |
| 14:21 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
He's still not great, but it is manageable. It did slow me down a lot from what I was working on this past month, but I got most of everything done. |
| 14:21 |
|
Owlie Fairelander is wondering if the cocoa is poisoned like the tea used to be |
| 14:21 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
nuuuuu! |
| 14:21 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
babies come first! |

Sandling Honey |

| 14:23 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This upcoming month I am probably going to work on experience teleporters from the cave in Mayfair to a location in The Wastelands. Role play isn't strict per-se in The Wastelands, but we have canonical lore that doesn't quite jive with time travel. So if you see any Wastelanders here, they're just having a dream after visiting Whambrose; a soon to be new NPC -- solely to knock them out for the visit here. |
| 14:24 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
WHAMBROSE!!!! dyin over here!!! |
| 14:24 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Nice. |
| 14:24 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Luzmila Carpio - Inti Watana |
| 14:24 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Whambrose, formerly of Wham! |
| 14:24 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This past Halloween Trick or Treat event for Caledon and The Wastelands, reminded me I needed to work on that soon. |
| 14:24 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
i KNEW that name was familiar! X-D |
| 14:24 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
You can thank Apo for that name. :) |
| 14:24 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
wham bam poetry slam! |
| 14:24 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
Wake me up before you go go go to Mayfair? |
| 14:25 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Yes Magda. :) |

Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
lmao, I was just gonna ask if Apo came up with that, because words... |
| 14:26 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Ask away. :) |
| 14:26 |
Evey (evey45) |
I'm interested in promoting Caledon as an Education center and a rp sim. I dont know if I'm out of place asking here, but I'd like some info about what we are doing about it cause I have some ideas, but it would require support and participation. |
| 14:26 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
Is this gamelan, Sandling? I like it ... tres soothing. |
| 14:27 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Caledon Oxbridge is perhaps the best source for education, as they have connections with VWEC, the virtual worlds education consortium. |
| 14:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'm quite involved with VWEC, Evey. In the advisory group for the education reserve |
| 14:28 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
As far as I know role play here has kind of dwindled off here, and has been for years. I would like to perhaps reboot it in the future with the same basic rule-set we have for The Wastelands, where it's all optional and opt-in, as being foundational rules. But I think we need a wiki for it. |
| 14:28 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Right now I think of Caledon as a themed community with a LOT OF PERKS. |
| 14:28 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Maybe we could have monthly salons like the Aether Salon? As long as it's not the third Sunday of the month, it wouldn't be competing |
| 14:28 |
Sandling Honey |
It's Bolivian :D |
| 14:29 |
Evey (evey45) |
nods. We need more people, get newbies to come to this area to learn and maybe stay. |
| 14:29 |

The best way to retain folks is to be friendly, outgoing, and helpful. |
| 14:29 |
Owlie Fairelander |
We are Katie's dream. |
| 14:30 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
Pfft. I'm out. |
| 14:30 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
HAH! |
| 14:30 |
Owlie Fairelander |
HA! |
| 14:30 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
what? you have edibles |
| 14:30 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
I'm curmudgeonly with edibles. |
| 14:30 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
that's okay |
| 14:30 |
Evey (evey45) |
I agree Neo, but maybe we could advertise in the newbies areas? |
| 14:31 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
What do you mean by advertise? |
| 14:31 |
Sandling Honey |
followed by Kate NV - Telefon |
| 14:31 |
Evey (evey45) |

| 14:32 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I do not advise using Des' old Caledon ads. |
| 14:32 |
Ali (sungali) |
'There's the SL Places feature, but I don't know how you get on that. |
| 14:32 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I think Caledon Oxbridge is already in the destination guide and such? Plus we have a spot at the Welcome Hub. I AM going to be slowly working on new telehubs with information about everything. It is on my very short list of things to do, hence the calendar work. :) |
| 14:33 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Ali: There's an application form someplace. I think there's a link to it on the destination guide itself. |
| 14:33 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Also SL places, you mean the place pages? That was kind of a cool project, but LL let it rot and nothing really came of it as far as being useful. |
| 14:33 |
Evey (evey45) |
yes, you need to send the info 2 weeks before the event takes place and get it listed |
| 14:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes, I redid a destination guide entry specific to Oxbridge a while back. |
| 14:34 |
Evey (evey45) |
well there are many things we could do |
| 14:34 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
there's the r/secondlife subreddit, too |
| 14:34 |
Evey (evey45) |
Do you know that there are events like "Weloveroleplay" that show stores in sims. That's a way to get more people interested and this is a victorian steampunk sim too. We have shop and hop too, we could have many more people coming just adding a gift that we could add based on stores here. |
| 14:35 |
Evey (evey45) |
I was a newbie recently and I explore a lot, Im afraid I don't see Caledon advertised in many places and I'd like to change that |
| 14:35 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I have a list of things to help bring awareness. Telehubs to start, the website (and subdomains), and ads. I do try to promote the weekly events as best as I can, I also go a bit further for the bigger events like Steam Meets Scrap. :) |
| 14:35 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |

| 14:36 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
:) |
| 14:37 |
Evey (evey45) |
we are lost in a new world, we don't know how to walk, fly or change our avi. we don't know how to teleport to other places. That's the people we need to get to |
| 14:37 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
A lot of that is on me. This past year has been "The transition year" as I think of it. Mostly just trying to get my ducks in a row and understand them. As well as sunsetting a lot of other inworld projects, and obligations. As of Halloween, for the first time in about 2 years, I no longer owe my time to anyone but the communities I manage. So I can freely pick and choose projects to work on. You will more than likely see me around a lot these next couple months. |
| 14:38 |
Evey (evey45) |
nods |
| 14:38 |
Magda Kameneva (magda.fairelander) |
Oooh. |
| 14:39 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I still have a super part time RL obligation, and they might call me for an emergency, but I should be working for Caledon and The Wastelands full time again. |
| 14:39 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
You'd have to run out to wherever new people get dropped and chat them up, that happened to me a couple times |
| 14:39 |
Owlie Fairelander |
You're also having to fix things that are 18 years in the broken department, and update a lot of infrastructure. |
| 14:39 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
The COU newcomer tutorials path is good for newcomers |
| 14:39 |
Evey (evey45) |
yes and we need volunteers for that. |
| 14:40 |

It would be beneficial if folks wanted to hang out at out Welcomhub Community Expo location. We had a smaller parcel with a lot more traffic, than our current larger parcel that is further away from where our small parcel was. |

how about having a board with tutors online? |

KayCooper |
what if the question-answerer doesn't know the answer? |
| 14:41 |
Phrynne |
We have a lot of notecards for training. |
| 14:42 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
we find out the answer and pass it along |
| 14:42 |
Evey (evey45) |
yep |
| 14:42 |
KayCooper |
I'll think about it, maybe I could help out too |
| 14:42 |
Evey (evey45) |
great Kay! |

Will do, Neo :) |
| 14:43 |
Mari Moonbeam |
Do noobs come in using the Linden viewer? |
| 14:43 |

Some notecards to give people, some to use for reference. |
| 14:43 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I think almost all do Mari. |
| 14:43 |
Phrynne |
And yes, some do come in using the Linden viewer |
| 14:43 |

Unless they are an alt, and have been in SL already. |
| 14:43 |
Evey (evey45) |
yes unless they are invited by someone here. |

John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
I can't remember what I did, and it was only 4 years ago |
| 14:44 |
KayCooper |
I'll talk to Ember about it in the near future, and I'll see if I have enough time in world to be useful |
| 14:44 |
Ali (sungali) |
Being RLed 30 minutes. |

Evey (evey45) |

Also, just a reminder if you have friends outside of SL, and you want them to land IN Caledon with our Community Gateway, send them here : https://join.independentstateofcaledon.com This will have them land at Oxbridge, auto-enrolled in the Oxbridge group (for help), and they can go through the oxbridge turotial. |

NeoBokrug Elytis |
Let me scroll back, I feel like I missed a question. |
| 14:47 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
With 15 minutes to go, does anyone have any questions for me about what we've discussed so far? |
| 14:47 |
Evey (evey45) |
nope |
| 14:47 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Are you doing forced telehubs on the regions? |
| 14:48 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Which regions? |
| 14:48 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Not against it just wondering. |
| 14:48 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
If anyone is new or feels new please contact KayCooper and Ti Stereo - we've got the Newcomers' Balls happening too this weekend |
| 14:48 |
Nyree Rain |
If you are speaking about upcoming events, next week, Wed. Nov. 13th at 6:30 pm is the annual Autumn Splendor Ball in the Dragon Ballroom at the Rain Estate. |
| 14:49 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Your regular divided regions for parcels. |
| 14:49 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Sandling, the music! |
| 14:49 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
*:-.,_,.-:*'``'*Yayyyyyyy!!!!*:-.,_,.-:*'``'* |
| 14:49 |
KayCooper |
Yes, I am the official Newcomer organizer! There is still time for newcomer's so message me and send any newcomer's you may know in my direction :) |
| 14:49 |
Nyree Rain |
Today, the music died.... |
| 14:49 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I won't do region wide forced telehub landings. I may have some parcels with landing points. |
| 14:49 |
Beasil (beasil.roundfield) |
Noooo |
| 14:49 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
Good, I need several days notice if I'm going to have to be splendid |
| 14:49 |
Evey (evey45) |
ok gotta go and change for next event. Hugs everyone. See you al soon! I'll send them to you Kay! |
| 14:49 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
TC Evey! |
| 14:49 |
KayCooper |
Bye Evey :) |
| 14:50 |
|
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) waves to Evey |
| 14:50 |
Sandling Honey |
Sorry there |
| 14:50 |
Evey (evey45) |
Bye ! |
| 14:50 |
Sandling Honey |
my internet collapsed |
| 14:50 |
KayCooper |
Newcomer's ball is th 16th |
| 14:50 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I think generally commonwealth land, will drop people off at a telehub. But owned parcels can land folks anywhere. I am actually on the fence about this; haha. |
| 14:50 |
Sandling Honey |
Should be back again - weird that I didn't log out of SL |
| 14:50 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
yesh! |
| 14:50 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Ahh yeah, last 10 minutes, we better open up the floor for upcoming events discussion! |
| 14:51 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I did notice Tam with telehubbed. Makes sense to have those landing points on commonwealth so visitors get dropped at your info points. |
| 14:51 |
Nyree Rain |
I certainly hope owned parcels are not forced to use a telehub. That would make it difficult to get to events. |
| 14:51 |
KayCooper |
very |
| 14:51 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
If you see the Harvest Festival poster anywhere, click for details! |
| 14:51 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
And those who have events; please get in touch with me on discord so I can give you rights to post events there, which get put on the Google calendar, which will eventually get put on the inworld telehubs. If you don't have permissions yet. |
| 14:52 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Sludgefest Chipmunks - Eye of the Tiger |
| 14:52 |
Owlie Fairelander |
You'd have to set the telehub on your parcel with how LL has the land functions set up...I mean it can be rerouted/set at region level but most land barons don't do that. |
| 14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
It makes sense in some cases, but I kind of hate it for other reasons. |
| 14:53 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Exactly. |
| 14:53 |
|
Katie (katie.canningham) hopes to continue to be able to land in Caledon sims outside of telehubs |
| 14:53 |
Mari Moonbeam |
having all the CW telehubbed is a hassle if you are roaming , miss the parcel and back at the start |
| 14:54 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
It is probably worth my time to consider that if you land on a path, then you're telehubbed. Grass = no. |
| 14:54 |
SupposedToPurr (rob.niosaki) |
xD |
| 14:54 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
IDK! We'll find out. |
| 14:54 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Is it time to start planning for Founders Day? |
| 14:54 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Probably but everyone waits to the last second around here. |
| 14:55 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Again I forget - when is Founder's Day? |
| 14:55 |
Mari Moonbeam |
February |
| 14:55 |
Owlie Fairelander |
2/26 |
| 14:55 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
February 26th |
| 14:55 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
26th February, but wasn't it named differently? |
| 14:55 |
Nyree Rain |
I usually do a ball, but I don't do any planning until January (now that I've quit making new outfits every year) |
| 14:55 |
Nyree Rain |
They've been called Anniversary Balls too. |
| 14:55 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
That falls on a Wednesday. If you all want, we can plan to do it like steam meets scrap, and have a big all day party the weekend before or after? |
| 14:55 |
Ravelli Ormstein |
yes, Anniversary i do remember |
| 14:56 |
Mari Moonbeam |
hung over groundhog day? |
| 14:56 |
Owlie Fairelander |
It's the anniversary. I mean, it's technically Founder's Day cause Des rented out the parcels of the original region before it even existed so they were all 'founders' |
| 14:56 |
Nyree Rain |
We used to have both an afternoon dance and an evening ball, but it's been some years since that's happened. |
| 14:56 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
Does Mr Ormstein need assistance? |
| 14:56 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
The Harvest Festival committee has done pretty well, I think - maybe keep on and become the Founders Day committee? |
| 14:56 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
that last steam meets scrap was SO much fun! |
| 14:56 |
Nyree Rain |
The Catgirl Birthday Bash also happens that night |
| 14:56 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
After the main ball, though! |
| 14:56 |
Nyree Rain |
yes |
| 14:56 |
|
Katie (katie.canningham) looks innocent |
| 14:57 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
I used to look innocent, but the years caught up with me |
| 14:57 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Aeval prefers to have her dance to be the last of the day. |
| 14:57 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Next meeting is December 14th. We can probably table it until then, or even January. |
| 14:57 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
It takes practice, but it's worth it |
| 14:57 |
Nyree Rain |
We also used to hold the Rose Hunt that week, but the past few years Samm's been running the Rose Hunt much later (when she has vacation time to do it) |
| 14:57 |
John Laughing (thesoundofonemanlaughing) |
Nah, the conversation is boring when you're innocent :) |
| 14:57 |
Nyree Rain |
Aeval likes to do midnight fireworks. |
| 14:57 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
But I know for a fact, that if we don't start planing RIGHT AFTER Halloween in The Wastelands; we're going to be in for some hurt. |
| 14:57 |
Nyree Rain |
Also Des gets on late |
| 14:58 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Would like to see more events for the anniversary, Neo. So I like your idea of having a party the weekend before/after. |
| 14:58 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
one isn't innocent, one just LOOKS innocent - huge difference! |
| 14:58 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I can pull some strings from the regulars if that's what the Caledon Community wants. |
| 14:58 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Everyone seems to love Rapa Tone. :) |
| 14:58 |
|
Nyree Rain looks... well at the moment not so innocent, but I'm trying. |
| 14:59 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
hehe |
| 14:59 |
Owlie Fairelander |
We have the traditional events now but nothing saying we can't start new traditions. |
| 14:59 |
|
Ravelli Ormstein votes on celebrating the anniversary the weekend after the Wednesday |
| 14:59 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I'll send out a group announcement for more feedback. |
| 14:59 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
or the Wednesday AND the weekend |
| 14:59 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Stone Giants - Stinson Beach |
| 15:00 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I still haven't cleaned up the steam meets scrap area, because I haven't had time. |
| 15:00 |
Nyree Rain |
Is the day falling on a Wed. ? |
| 15:00 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Probably the traditional events would still happen on the Wednesday and the newer events on the weekend. |
| 15:00 |
Nyree Rain |
What Owlie said. |
| 15:00 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Sounds like a plan. |
| 15:00 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
we may end up with a whole week of events |
| 15:00 |
Nyree Rain |
That actually used to be the case. |
| 15:01 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
or month of weekends |
| 15:01 |
Owlie Fairelander |
We could. Heck one year we even had the Caledon Games. |
| 15:01 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Okay folks! Top of the hour. Thanks for coming. |

Owlie Fairelander |
I think have pics of the running of the Cavorite Torch somewhere. |
| 15:01 |
KayCooper |
Thanks Neo :) |
| 15:01 |
Nyree Rain |
I remember the Games. And.... destroying the badly set up Hunt, as I was the first to do it. |
| 15:02 |
Sandling Honey |

Nyree Rain |
That is, in fact, how I ended up working for the Baron. |

Owlie Fairelander |

Nyree Rain |

Sandling Honey |

Nyree Rain leaps gracefully down from her platform. |
| 15:03 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |

Sandling Honey |
