As usual, these meeting are for talking about our respective communities, now with the inclusion of New Toulouse; our neighbors to the south. |
14:03 |
|
Zahra Ethaniel claps |
14:03 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I will generally be sticking to "categories" of discussion with time for questions in between |
14:03 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Feel free to ask your questions at any time, there's a bit less structure here than in The Wastelands, and it sort of works out. I will have to scroll back to address them |
14:04 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
This past month occupancy in Caledon has been stable. Folks moving in, folks moving out, generally the same. Still very high for our community. We're doing really well. |
14:05 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
YAY!!!! |
14:05 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
New Toulouse came in to my hands in pretty bad shape as far as occupancy is concerned. However, this past month has seen explosive growth now that parcels are available to folks. I thought I'd be paying out of pocket for a very long time; but the place is almost already self sustaining. Once I make the lands publicly available, it should shore up within a week. |

KayCooper |
My brain auto-corrected anyway |
14:06 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Until Monday Morning, sales of land in New Toulouse are still a private affair. Only folks who are from New Toulouse, Caledon, or The Wastelands may purchase land there. |
14:07 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Kind of a special perk. I did give folks in NT a whole week headstart to pick up land. Many folks have returned, or picked up more land there. Then Caledonians and Wastelanders started filling in after that week. |
14:08 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I think communities understand communities, and that is the best course of action for now. |
14:08 |

14:10 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Oh, any questions about general land stuff before I go on? |

Speaking of Phrynne, she let me know that she came down with covid last week |

oh no |

she's slowly getting better tho |
14:11 |
Zahra Ethaniel |
oh good to hear |
14:11 |
Nyree Rain |
That is why she has not been on. Last night she contacted me to say she is a bit better, some symptoms over, but still tired. |
14:11 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
Yes, covid is that way. |
14:11 |
Nyree Rain |
But that would be why she hasn't been around. |
14:11 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I got all of my boosters at the start of November. I don't need that sort of downtime. :) |
14:12 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Not corporal or major or private land stuff? |
14:12 |

Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) had COVID once, was not fun |
14:12 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
major general? |
14:13 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I have a lot of info about Caledon Quest, and I do know that I TRIED it when it was active ~ but I've really forgotten a lot about it. For now I am just going to get the base systems in place. No more reliance on an outside database, all inworld part of the KVP system. Once I get the base framework imported from The Wastelands, purposed for Caledon, I'll help get the new quest structure set up. |
14:14 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
The trains, boats, CAT, are very high priority for me as well. So when I get tired of either or, I'll flop to the other so we can still have progress on both. |
14:15 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
Smiles brightly. |
14:15 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I spent 4 hours on a door script on Thursday, only to learn I discovered a new bug (I think). And while I really would have liked to have flopped to a different project, it had to be done that day. |
14:15 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Bjork - Hunter |
14:15 |
Mari Moonbeam |
that will be great, I'm really enjoying the barges in Taloo |
14:16 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
They'll get an update, as well as the Trolleys there. |
14:16 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
We have plans for a ferry back and forth, but I would need to finish the Tides of time. |
14:17 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I do hope you can make the quest more then it was. |
14:17 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
For that, there's the automated route where you're a passenger. Or an alternate route you can sail there with -- which will be far less cool. |
14:17 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Any questions about any of that so far? |
14:17 |
Francesca Alva |
hi Tyger |
14:18 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Do you plan to just do the same old idea with the quest or to add into it? |
14:18 |
Tyger Freenote |
Hey Fran, Hey Boss |
14:19 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Perhaps now the Quest could include NT and Wastelands? |
14:19 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Caledon Quest has a few unique challenges. While I don't plan to ever shut down a region, I know how disruptive it can be to the quest -- and if I am not mistaken, that is the reason it is offline now. The quest systems I have in The Wastelands, that need to be adopted, are much more freeform. We can add and remove components pretty easily -- so things can be adapted to when we get more spaces to explore, or less. |
14:19 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I want to keep it a Caledon Specialty. |
14:19 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Boards of Canada - White Cyclosa |
14:20 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Caledon is already very big, and having new folks try to navigate can be hard. |
14:20 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
ok |
14:20 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
The Wastelands has its own quests to help people explore. :) |
14:20 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
That's what I am bringing over. :) |
14:20 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
cool! |
14:20 |
Owlie Fairelander |
The whole point of the quest was to be a Caledon History lesson **and** to get new folks out to explore what existed in Caledon. But Marion skipped all that for the easy route. |
14:21 |
Tyger Freenote |
I've come in mid-conversation but some events/quests in NT would be great once you've got all of your ducks in a row with the infrastructure, rentals and whatnot |
14:22 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I will have to poke Marion for some assets, or ask folks to make some. |
14:22 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
The Quest was how I got to know Caledon. |
14:22 |
Francesca Alva |
yes, we used to have Hunts that were popular |
14:22 |
KayCooper |
same here Kara |
14:22 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Probably be better to get new stuff from folks, rather then involve Marion. |
14:22 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
and can again! |
14:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes it was sims disappearing that broke the quest. And part of the update problem was then where to place medallions that would have meaning for explorers. |
14:23 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Tyger: Yeah, I typically leave it up to the community to host events, I just spread awareness. Once we have folks there, we can explore if anyone wants to host anything. |
14:23 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
and when someone asked me where to find the coin in KittiWickShire..I told them to jump in the lake.. |
14:23 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Nintariman - Hands Across Antarctica / Trista |
14:23 |
Sandling Honey |
Thankees :D |
14:23 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Which is a much better clue for it, Kara, then what was there. |
14:23 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
yep |
14:23 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
It may be best to rebuild it from scratch, but I want to understand what it was better before I do so. |
14:24 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I will probably leave it in the hands of Caledon Oxbridge folks to manage once it is done. |
14:24 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Thorough documentation as I go along. :) |
14:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Exactly right Kara. find the Linden tree (not as in LL), turn south and jump in the lake |
14:25 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
O.O |
14:25 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Haha! |
14:26 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Basically one just went around finding medallions, and provided 'pieces' of a flying chair to battle an air Kraken on Middlesea, at the end the 'chair' was 'put together' and one had to battle the Kraken to 'win' the quest but 90% of newbies couldn't win the battle, got frustrated and never finished. |
14:26 |
Nyree Rain |
I liked the flying chair |
14:26 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Fortunately I already have all the code needed for that. |
14:26 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
literally all of it. |
14:26 |
Tyger Freenote |
Hey RMarie =) |
14:27 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Hi Tora! |
14:27 |
Sandling Honey |
Thx Tora :D |
14:27 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
yvw, hon! :-D |
14:27 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Well, Wordsmith would be ideal for the actual follow-up with the ongoing quest once it is completed. |
14:28 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
For now, my immediate attention is to stabilizing New Toulouse. Once I finish there I'll work on transportation and the quest. |
14:28 |
Sandling Honey |
\o/ |
14:28 |
Owlie Fairelander |
But the quest should offer more then just finding a medallion...it should give snippets of what Caledon is as well. |
14:28 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
and bits of history |
14:28 |
Owlie Fairelander |
That was the original idea, Katie. (I know...it was my idea). |
14:28 |
Nyree Rain |
Are you volunteering to to write those bits of history Owlie? |
14:29 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
that was a good idea |
14:29 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Pfft. Neo can ask folks to submit stuff as well...shouldn't rely on one person. |
14:29 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
Smiles brightly. |
14:30 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Ok I will stop hijacking the meeting. |
14:30 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I've started the Desmond Shang summoning ritual, so that he appears on Founders Day here in Caledon. My question for those who are here, is ... do we want the events to just be a free-for-all for the week, or some organization? I certainly don't want to step on what is normal for Caledon. I am just used to planning 2 months in advance for The Wastelands. |
14:30 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
X-D! |
14:31 |
Francesca Alva |
the legend says you look in a mirror and say Des three times |
14:31 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Would be interesting to have a go at some organizing with folks for the anniversary and see how it goes. Could create more events and such. |
14:31 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
and when is Founders day? |
14:31 |
Owlie Fairelander |
02/26 |
14:31 |
Nyree Rain |
Feb. 26th |
14:31 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Skee Mask - Via Sub Mids |
14:31 |
Nyree Rain |
I will be having a ball that night. |
14:32 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
Sounds lovely |
14:32 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
What I am used to, is planning for a 3 day weekend, the weekend after Founders day -- non-stop events. |
14:32 |
KayCooper |
Things I recall happening around Founders Day are the ball, rose hunt, and parade... |
14:32 |
Mari Moonbeam |
but what about us, you're always having fun Nyree ;p |
14:32 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Sounds like what I remember from last year. |
14:32 |
Nyree Rain |
:) |
14:33 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Well, and that's the ticket, Neo...could let folks do events on the day of, like they always do, and then also have a weekend of events. More folks could offer events and such. |
14:33 |
Whystler Foxtail |
Is there a website, or an info depot where all the events are listed? |
14:33 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Tell yah what. Let's let folks submit their events to me like we do now. I will do my best to be at all of them. |
14:34 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Sometimes newer folks to a place don't want to step on toes to offere their own new idea of an event and that would open up the ability. |
14:34 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
and the rose hunt lasts about a week |
14:34 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I post them in group notices every week on Thursdays, and to bluesky as well, soon to be part of our domain name. |
14:34 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
or more? |
14:34 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
And discord as well |

Nyree Rain |
Rose Hunt is likely to be well after. Samm has been moving it to her Spring Break instead of around Founder's Day |
14:34 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I am very vocal about what people do here. :) |
14:34 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Rose hunt falls to Samm now. So it' really depends on what Samm decides for the length of time on the Hunt. |
14:35 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
New Toulouse has a Founders Day coming up in March... 8th? |
14:35 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
(sorry I am still absorbing things) |
14:35 |
Nyree Rain |
No reason there couldn't be some other type of Hunt around founders Day if someone wanted to run it. |
14:35 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
'right round Mardi Gras |
14:36 |
Whystler Foxtail |
<3 which is the best group in SL for Caledon for a new person to join? |
14:36 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
I'll get with Fransesca soon about that. Maybe we can plan a few things. :) |
14:36 |

I think before I open up this meeting to upcoming events discussion, I am just going to say I am going to avoid scooping up other themed communities for my own sanity -- but no promises. I took on Caledon because I knew Des really well over the years, and he was my mentor. I took on NT, because I had occasionally been there, and it's been around almost as long as The Wastelands. I think themed communities are the lifeblood of SL -- and losing any of them makes SL less. I really hope that all themed communities can carry on strong, but I know that it is sometimes hard, and hard choices must be made from time to time. The community is the magic sauce of any long lasting estate. Losing that community, those folks may never come back to SL. |
14:46 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
But now, an open floor for event discussion and planning. Maybe role-play ideas if you're feeling adventurous. |
14:46 |
Sandling Honey |

Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Just don't pick up any Game of thrones places, they tend to implode |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Wonders if Katie is going to pop |
14:47 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
oh my, you're such a gas! |
14:48 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
Adventurous sounds good. |
14:48 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Hah |
14:48 |
Tyger Freenote |
Sandling loving the Warp-y setlist |
14:49 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Sandling makes music too! |

This fits, although i wasn't thinking about Caledon when I thought it ... a movie night with vintage movies on a big screen in the sky (like a drive in for personal flying vehicles). There are some cool turn of the century (19th-20th) public domain movies .. and some are intriguing - stop motion things. Apologies is this is off the wall, as I'm not familiar with your community completely yet :) |
14:49 |
Owlie Fairelander |
I am redecorating the underwater area of Rose, and Neo has added some atmosphere elements to it, so use the shared environment setting when exploring for best seeing of it. |
14:49 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Caledon hosts a few movie nights already. |
14:49 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Sounds like a good idea Whystler |
14:50 |
Nyree Rain |
My Wed. dance next week the theme is to bring a pet. It's all decorated for Valentine's Day (lots of purple) and everyone can love a pet. Free pet prims available as always, and there will be 3 new styles. |
14:50 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Oh but not always vintage movies. |
14:50 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
True! |
14:50 |
Whystler Foxtail |
That's cool Neo - are they monthly ? |
14:50 |
Sandling Honey |
Yeah, 't is a winter themed IDM set today ;D |
14:50 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Weekly I think? Andrea hosts a bunch of movies / themed show nights. |
14:51 |
Whystler Foxtail |
Oh that's exciting. Thanks for that info. |
14:51 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
wastelands also has movies twice weekly? |
14:51 |
KayCooper |
Usually the Movies/TV Shows are relatively modern...but vintage, public domain stuff could be cool |
14:51 |
KayCooper |
especially in the sky.... |
14:51 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Perhaps let Andrea know, or if you wanted to host your own stuff -- that'd be cool too. :) |
14:51 |
Tyger Freenote |
There is (or was, Fran may be able to confirm) an old movie theatre of sorts in NT, might be worthy of a reboot |
14:51 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
one of our local scholars reads from something like - right now - phantom of the opera - and then he shows movies |
14:51 |
Whystler Foxtail |
The electric Hotel ... Gerta the Dinosaur ... |
14:52 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Cynthia does a movie night as well. |
14:52 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
It is still there Tyger, very small. |
14:52 |
Francesca Alva |
next to my place - the Bijou |
14:52 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Cynthia has movie nights on Sundays |
14:52 |
Whystler Foxtail |
nice |
14:52 |
Owlie Fairelander |
Caledon used to have a grand theater but it went down with the original Penzance region. |
14:52 |
Tyger Freenote |
I really should just walk around the town more |
14:52 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
I think Andrea has restarted her scifi midday Sundays and I know she does mystery/spy tv shows Thursdays |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
There's also showings in the Goblin cave. |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Cynthia and Shockwave show there. |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Thursdays I believe. |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
5pm |
14:53 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
original Penzance - not to be confused with current Pensans, yes? |
14:53 |
Whystler Foxtail |
excellent |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
No, Tuedays |
14:53 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |

Caledon has a lot of events, lets put it that way. :) |
14:54 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
yes! Monday nights, 7:30 pm SLT, in the Reading Room |
14:54 |
Sandling Honey |
np: Ochre - Dendronaut |
14:54 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
some even come to Writers' Meeting |
14:54 |
Nyree Rain |
I thought that Grand Theater burned down. |
14:54 |
Owlie Fairelander |
yes, Katie, but it's the same location, the original Penzance had a huge Penzance sign like the Hollywood sign, used to have a Hollywood movie set, etc..shopping district. |
14:55 |
Nyree Rain |
I remember something burning down. |
14:55 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
Elf's writers' meeting, Reading Room Thursdays at - 11am? |
14:55 |
Francesca Alva |
isn't that where the machinima of Putting on the Ritz was made? |
14:55 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
*ears prick* "shopping, you say?" |
14:55 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
ah! |
14:55 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Caledon also has a discord server, which is getting more traction as the months wear on. It's a good place to talk with friends when you're offline, or on the toilet. It also has the events there that folks have let me know about: https://discord.gg/u6bZFaCG4y |
14:55 |
Katie (katie.canningham) |
honestly, I think the current Pensans would be a great place to have a big ol' pirates festival |
14:55 |
Owlie Fairelander |
They might have burned it --there used to be an RP firefighter group in Caledon and they would do burning RP's of places that were being removed or changed. |
14:56 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
i LOVE that idea, Katie! go Pirates! |
14:56 |
Hope of Ar (hope.dreier) |
Well we do have a Major General |
14:56 |
Kara of the bright smile (kara2016) |
We are already dicussing the Spring Fling for Caledon..its coming up..on Discord.. |
14:56 |
Tora the Explorer (toraonna.thane) |
HAHA!! |
14:57 |
Tyger Freenote |
I need to come to Caledon more (my bad) but mention of Penzance reminds me of an old airfield, a giant telescope and some other bits. I'm sure much has changed. |
14:57 |
Owlie Fairelander |
They did the same for SSC when it was being remodeled --RPed some sort of griefing/bombing/attack to the original build and exploded the place during a huge party. |
14:57 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
I have heard rumors of somebody wanting the Iron Cloud back. |
14:57 |
Mari Moonbeam |
yes , great airfield |
14:57 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |

Tyger Freenote notes the NT Discord |
14:58 |
Owlie Fairelander |
If he brings that back hopefully he doesn't bring his griefings with it. |
14:58 |
Mari Moonbeam |
ditto |
14:58 |
NeoBokrug Elytis |
Haha |
14:58 |
Tyger Freenote |

Any last questions for me about anything? I have to head out at the top of the hour to help someone here in SL. |
14:59 |
