15:03 | Gronk Seriman entered chat range (17.79 m). | |
15:03 | Ember (emberell) | With that said, I'm going to go ahead and open the floor to questions from you all! |
15:03 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | Hi hi. |
15:04 | Ember (emberell) | And welcome, Gronk! |
15:05 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | i have a 'lil question actually, on the subject of events; is there a board for that, similar to the class schedule boards? has one been considered, or would that be work to upkeep? |
15:05 | Ember (emberell) | Actually, Caledon has a calendar of events that all are welcome to peruse. Let me get you a link, Spike. |
15:05 | Larky (larkylouz) | There are several. The Aether Chrononauts Calendar, The SL Events Calendar. I also put events and classes on Facebook and Twitter |
15:05 | Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) | A couple of notes: Tonight's movie in the Goblin Cave is "Puss in Boots", but I'm not sure which one, as there are two or three |
15:06 | Ember (emberell) | https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=59h3ei5al27kcfi6ojgs1dht40@group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Chicago |
15:06 | Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) | And don't forget Andrea's Caledon Nights dances every Tuesday at 6 |
15:07 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | ahh okay okay. thank you! i get curious what's going on sometimes but i thought there might have been something on-sim somewhere. x) |
15:07 | Ember (emberell) | This calendar specifically talks about Caledon events - as Larky said, for a more general list of events, there is the SL event calendar, which hosts a wide variety from every source, as well as other calendars like the Aether Chrononauts calendar as well |
15:07 | lovejoy2199 | Andrea: Do you know where your build at SL20 will be located? |
15:08 | Larky (larkylouz) | Aether Chrononauts is specific to steamlands events |
15:08 | Ember (emberell) nods | |
15:08 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | shrugs, not sure it is going o happen now. they still have not assigned a plot |
15:08 | Ember (emberell) | IF you need any help putting that together, Andrea, just holler |
15:08 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | i will be getting busy with other projects |
15:09 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | so if they wait to late. |
15:09 | Ember (emberell) nods | |
15:09 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | i hope it pans out. SL20 could be a massive advertising opportunity. |
15:09 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I mauy not worry about it. Linden labs has let me down before |
15:09 | Ember (emberell) | I hope they don't this year, your displays are always lovely |
15:09 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | The SLB is a Caledonian Nights display |
15:10 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I ws thinking Word was doing one? |
15:10 | Phrynne | if so it is just COU |
15:10 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Or was tied up on the new university regions |
15:10 | Ember (emberell) | I think he intends to do one for Oxbridge, but I'd need to double check with him |
15:10 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | nods |
15:10 | Ember (emberell) | Other questions? |
15:11 | Ember (emberell) | Oh, and thank you, Liska, for listing the movie tonight! |
15:11 | Larky (larkylouz) | Second Thursdays, 5PM Word co-hosts a Sci-Fi Short Story reading and discussion. Details pending |
15:12 | Ember (emberell) nods | |
15:12 | Ember (emberell) | I'll prod him, see if he won't let me announce it here |
15:12 | Ember (emberell) | As for my announcements, I usually only relay the ones people have consented for me to relay - I'm open to folk reaching out if they're hosting events in CAledon they want me to let people know about! |
15:13 | Ember (emberell) | And one minor announcement - LL reports they are working on the friend list bug that people have been complaining on, though they haven't reported a solution to it entirely, they have put out a guide for those looking to fix it |
15:14 | Ember (emberell) | You can find these announcements and other status issues here: https://status.secondlifegrid.net/ |
15:14 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | it does seem to be intensifying...had a number of friends appear online when they said they'd logged for the night. |
15:14 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | and vice-versa. |
15:14 | Ember (emberell) | Yes. While the solution presented isn't perfect, it should effectively refresh the issue with the list. |
15:14 | Spike Rose (spike.bloodrose) | really appreciate the link! |
15:14 | Ember (emberell) | Er, refresh the list itself so the issue isn't present |
15:15 | Ember (emberell) | Hearing no questions - anyone? Any question is welcome! questions, comments, announcements... |
15:15 | Ember (emberell) | If we have no more I'm tempted to wrap up early today :-) |
15:16 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | hopefully we will see you at the stage at 4 |
15:16 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | Some group profiles also show empty members lists |
15:16 | Ember (emberell) | Yes, that's a separate issue actually - members lists may appear empty until loaded. Sometimes to make them load you need to be a part of the group |
15:16 | Ember (emberell) | Though they can load in after a time. |
15:16 | Ember (emberell) | they don't show that they're loading very well, or when they've failed, so it can be difficult to know if they're not showing due to an error |
15:18 | Ember (emberell) | With that said, I'm hearing no further questions. So I'll go ahead and let you all go for the day! thank you all for coming, and for the questions ❤ |
15:18 | Gronk Seriman | Thank you, Deans! |
15:18 | Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) | Thanks Ember and Andrea |
15:18 | Ember (emberell) | As always, I'll linger a time just in case any last minute questions occur on the way out. And remember! Oxbridge isn't anything without you all- staff, students, and guests all, we appreciate you all |
