| 15:08 | Ember (emberell) | No harm done |
| 15:09 | Ember (emberell) | As an aside, if anyone in Caledon has events or such they run and would like me to include them in my announcements, I am very open - please just send me an IM. ❤ |
| 15:10 | Ember (emberell) | I will say, if we have no questions I am tempted to call the Q&A early. No use keeping everyone here if there aren't questions to answer. Anyone? |
| 15:10 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | When is Caledon Dream going away? [Ed note: It isn't; it just got moved.] |
| 15:11 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | Is the owner ok? |
| 15:11 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I was unaware that it was leaving |
| 15:11 | Ember (emberell) | Hm, I think it's staying on, currently. It wasn't in the others that left |
| 15:11 | Ember (emberell) | The sims that were set to sink have currently, none others are going away that I know of. |
| 15:11 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | oh I thought I saw that was on the list last time |
| 15:11 | Larky (larkylouz) | I understood that Dream was to replace Kintyre |
| 15:11 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Dream was going to move. then it dod not |
| 15:11 | Ember (emberell) nods | |
| 15:11 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | oh ok |
| 15:12 | Ember (emberell) | That may be the source of the confusion |
| 15:12 | Ember (emberell) | Welcome, Katie! |
| 15:12 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | Katie! |
| 15:12 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | /waves |
| 15:12 | Katie (katie.canningham) | Hi Ember, thanks! |
| 15:12 | Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) | That was the original plan, but instead they moved COU and COV |
| 15:12 | Katie (katie.canningham) | Hi Sasha! |
| 15:12 | Katie (katie.canningham) waves back | |
| 15:12 | Ember (emberell) nods | |
| 15:12 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | good to know |
| 15:13 | Ember (emberell) | I am hopeful things are stable for the foreseeable future |
| 15:13 | Ember (emberell) | Other questions? |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | They should be Ember |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | til next year |
| 15:13 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | Who does the rose hunt? |
| 15:13 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | I was going to make a suggestion |
| 15:13 | Ember (emberell) | Prof. Florian is often one of the people majorly involved |
| 15:13 | Ember (emberell) | Reaching out to her would be a good bet for getting involved |
| 15:14 | Ember (emberell) | Samm Florian |
| 15:14 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | I was hoping maybe they could put the roses for sale to help Caledon a bit? |
| 15:14 | Ember (emberell) | I think that would cause more of a stir than not, honestly. The roses are well known for being one time prizes |
| 15:15 | Ember (emberell) | But it might be worth seeing if that might be a thought for future hunts |
| 15:15 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | ah |
| 15:15 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | Yea I missed it due to busy times |
| 15:15 | Ember (emberell) | Welcome, Foxy |
| 15:15 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | Or have a gallery of all the roses ever made? |
| 15:15 | fluffyFoxy364 | Hey |
| 15:15 | Ember (emberell) | I think there is a list of past roses on the site |
| 15:16 | Katie (katie.canningham) | I thought I saw a display of them somewhere, in my wanderings |
| 15:16 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) | oh that'd be excellent |
| 15:16 | Ember (emberell) | http://samm.nfshost.com/Rose/rose.cgi |
| 15:16 | Ember (emberell) | I believe there may be a display of them in Victoria somewhere also |
| 15:16 | Katie (katie.canningham) | I thought at first it was a graveyard, but each pedestal had a different rose on it |
| 15:16 | Ember (emberell) | But it has been some time. |
| 15:17 | Ember (emberell) | Well, it's definitely a good excuse to explore SL again :-) |
| 15:17 | Ember (emberell) | SL and Caledon, that is |
| 15:17 | Katie (katie.canningham) | yes! |
| 15:17 | Ember (emberell) | Other questions? |
| 15:18 | Sasha Prismara Featherlight (sashaveiloftears) smiles | |
| 15:18 | Gronk Seriman | Has the cannon out front been fixed? |
| 15:18 | Ember (emberell) | Oh I will make a minor announcement - thanks muchly to the hard work of Shetty Aretheus, the trains and the CATs seem to be in motion again. It might be worth taking some time to send a thank-you their way |
| 15:19 | Ember (emberell) | I adjusted the cannon a bit after the Q&A yesterday, so it should send you off the platform again |
| 15:19 | Katie (katie.canningham) | *:-.,_,.-:*'``'*Yayyyyyyy!!!!*:-.,_,.-:*'``'* |
| 15:19 | Ember (emberell) | if it gives more trouble just let me know, Gronk |
| 15:19 | Gronk Seriman | Great! |
| 15:19 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | I doubt mini-subs are coming back.... |
| 15:19 | Ember (emberell) | Yes, especially with the waterways as they are now |
| 15:19 | Ember (emberell) | But, hearing no additional questions.... |
| 15:20 | Ember (emberell) | I'll go ahead and call today's Q&A adjourned. thank you all for coming, and for asking questions. :-) |
| 15:20 | Ember (emberell) | As usual, I'll stick around and answer any last minute questions that occur |
| 15:20 | Gronk Seriman | Thank you, Deans! |
| 15:20 | Katie (katie.canningham) | yes, thank you! |
| 15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I do plan to add a mini sub rezzer to the public docks |
| 15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | with sail boats and canoes |
| 15:20 | Ember (emberell) | that would be wonderful, Andrea |
| 15:20 | Katie (katie.canningham) | cool! |
| 15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I need to check the depth of the channels around the regions |
| 15:21 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | and a steampunk flying machine |
| 15:21 | Katie (katie.canningham) | ooooooooooooooo! |
