Carl Metropolitan |
Hello |
15:01 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
hiya carl |
15:01 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hi Carl. |
15:01 |
Phrynne |
hello Carl |
15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And Miracle of miracles, both Phrynne and Larky are returned from the PC incapacitated. |
15:02 |
RainyDayRecess |
Yay! |
15:02 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
**cheers for working PC's** |
15:02 |
Phrynne |
And working software |
15:02 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
You were out, too, Phrynne? thank you Word |
15:03 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Did I say "hello" when I sat down, or am I that out of it. |
15:03 |
Phrynne |
I did battle with the latest version of Firestorm on both computers for a week. |
15:03 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
Huzzah for pirates winning the battle! |
15:04 |
Phrynne |
Had to delete all my settings, so now I have to remember what they were. |
15:04 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
ack! ack! |
15:04 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Welcome to whatever we are doing now. I'm really kind of out of it so I'm not sure. I think it has something to do with you all asking questions. |
15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This triggered by FS blocking it's fourth back version. |
15:05 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Hello everyone. so sorry, I'm not sure what this is about, but I saw the notice and came because I have an hour to kill. Am I supposed to be here? |
15:05 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Yes. Welcome Darrwen |
15:05 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) tosses gummi worms in welcome to Dar. |
15:05 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Ok thank you :) |
15:05 |
Carl Metropolitan |
This is the weekly Q&A with the Deans |
15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It's a very open meeting. |
15:05 |
Carl Metropolitan |
We answer your questions about Oxbridge, Caledon, and Second Life in general. |
15:06 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Oh wonderful, thank you :) |
15:06 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Ignore my joking about not know where I am :) |
15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, did you have anything despite the battles? |
15:06 |
Phrynne |
Yes, a couple of things. |
15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(notices that Agatha has changed room polarity) |
15:07 |
Agatha Macbeth |
?? |
15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(from one side to the other) |
15:07 |
Phrynne |
I've continued to dress the campus for fall, with a few bushes here and there. It's hard to find bushes in a good clear yellow leaf for early fall, but some of them I can tint a bit. |
15:07 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh aye sir |
15:08 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Phrynne, if you need to get rid of my old scuplty trees, feel free to. |
15:08 |
Phrynne |
I am also working on the periodic overview of all parcel bans at Oxbridge -- who's banned, why, since when, and whether it's a good idea to unban them. |
15:08 |
Phrynne |
No, Carl, your trees are fine. |
15:08 |
Phrynne |
I haven't found anything better that I can afford. |
15:08 |
Carl Metropolitan |
You know Oxbridge Mint is supposed to pay for those? |
15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've told her that. |
15:09 |
Phrynne |
Most of what I put out are duplicates of ones that I had before I became Dean. And Oxbridge Mint has paid for one or two things. I need to send a bill for the new bushes. But the really good trees run 800-1000 L or more, and I don't see spending that at the moment. |
15:10 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Okay. That makes sense |
15:10 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Have you tried Dysfunctional Designs? They have some stuff that's very reasonably priced |
15:10 |
Phrynne |
I hadn't tried them. |
15:11 |
Phrynne |
Thing is, the technology has progressed a bit. I'd like to get more trees that are not only seasonal but move a bit. Oxbridge paid for the apple tree that is where the skating rink will be in the winter, for instance. That's one of the newer kind. |
15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Plant's with borderline variety disorders........ |
15:12 |
Phrynne |
The one that hangs over the carriage drive is another -- both from Hayabusa -- but that one is one of their freebies. |
15:12 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) ponders her eggplant-ness and wonders if it borders. |
15:12 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Okay. Sounds good. |
15:12 |
Phrynne |
The ban list is divided by category -- griefers, oversexed, general mischief and so on. |
15:13 |
Agatha Macbeth |
:P |
15:13 |
Phrynne |
However, in the midst of the computer software problems, som eof my notecards on bans have disappeared, so I will be sending a note to tutors and deans asking if they know anything about some of the people on the list. |
15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
General PITA's |
15:14 |
Phrynne |
I have very little info on some of them -- the database we keep to organize what we know has very little also -- and I would hate to unban someone who would turn around and grief us. |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
But overall we do not have a huge number of people on ban lists on the various parcels at Oxbridge. |
15:15 |
RainyDayRecess |
Maybe ask them? :) |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
Those who are minor pains are unbanned regularly. |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
Rainy, probably not a good idea. |
15:15 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Oh. I noticed that the vampires have moved on to NCI apparently. |
15:15 |
RainyDayRecess |
:) |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
good to know. |
15:15 |
Carl Metropolitan |
And are getting an equally warm reception there. |
15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
.lol |
15:15 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Something new to get their teeth into |
15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I do keep the notecards I've been sent Phrynne (always helps if the name is in the title of the notecard) |
15:16 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
sees torches and pitchforks |
15:16 |
Phrynne |
though a few of their friends still show up here occasionally |
15:16 |
Phrynne |
Some of the names on the list are old, pre-database. |
15:16 |
Phrynne |
It's possible the accounts aren't in use now, but no way to know. |
15:17 |
Phrynne |
Anyway, that is what I have been doing. |
15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(makes a mental note to put database management updates on his todo list) |
15:18 |
Phrynne |
I have some ideas to make it work more easily -- I'll write them up and get them to you. |
15:18 |
|
Agatha Macbeth applauds the pirate cat |
15:19 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I think Andrea has an announcement about an upcoming Art Show that will benefit Oxbridge. |
15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've got stuff like better searches and being able to delete from the interface on my list already. |
15:19 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
oh not ready yet |
15:20 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Okay |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Carl, did you have anything? |
15:20 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I know someone asks this every week, so I will ask it this week, Wordsmith, how is CAT coming along? |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I need to get back to it. Have to start mapping. |
15:21 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Okay. I have nothing. |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I think there's a law of conservation of things to catch up on. |
15:23 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
So there is a fundraiser event for the COU planned the 1st of October at 7. PM. It will be a Masquerade ball steampunk Victorian with DJ Poppy. The location is the art show that is being put together. Submitters needed. Please IM me and check the ISC group for a notice with details. |
15:24 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
And a Irsih dance at the pub in the Village, see isc group and Caledonian nights group for a notice with details. |
15:24 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Oops Irish |
15:24 |
Dar (darrwen) |
That sounds fun. |
15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Which implies Irish music. |
15:25 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
renee is on board so hopefully we will have some our photography calss involved |
15:25 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:26 |
Phrynne |

15:26 |

Agatha Macbeth applauds |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
She keeps that up and she'll have more rezdays than she is old. |
15:26 |
RainyDayRecess |
YaaaaY!!! |
15:26 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
She's not here! |
15:26 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
I was thinking the same, Wordsmith. |
15:26 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
and thanks to wordsmith and rainey here. the public swimming pool is coming along nicely in the village/ |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
She doesn't have to be here. She can read the transcript later. |
15:27 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
True |
15:27 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
Swimming? nice! |
15:27 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
I hope it iw warm, for the winter months. |
15:27 |
|
Badass Fae (larkylouz) is a wimp |
15:27 |
Carl Metropolitan |
We had a strangly cool summer here in Texas |
15:28 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
No strangles. |
15:28 |
SecondGoldy |
hello all.Sorry I am late |
15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |
May just be local. |
15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Hello Second |
15:28 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) hides her gummi worms from the strangles. |
15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Well, I'm modeling it roughly after the historic Santa Cruz Natatorium (aka The Plunge). That opened about 1906. The heated the ocean water up to 85 deg F. |
15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Okay. We are open for questions. (I think). |
15:29 |
SecondGoldy |
i'll sit as soon as the bench rezzes.I am a lil Laggy today |
15:29 |
Agatha Macbeth |
These benches always seem difficult to sit on... |
15:29 |
SecondGoldy |
do i need to enable voice? |
15:30 |
Phrynne |
no, we manage in text here |
15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
No, we're doing it all in chat. |
15:30 |
SecondGoldy |
i think its just me agatha. |
15:30 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
::grins at Agatha:: I got sitting on the bench right the 1st time today! Not like my first time where I nearly gave up. |
15:31 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I think most of us dont' even have voice turned on. |
15:31 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Any questions? |
15:31 |
Dar (darrwen) |
None from me, just listening. |
15:32 |
SecondGoldy |
same here. |
15:32 |
Agatha Macbeth |
There seem to be a lot of events in caledon next two weeks |
15:32 |
Agatha Macbeth |
C* |
15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Caledon is so inherently social that events have been colliding. |
15:33 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh my |
15:33 |
Phrynne |
We try not to be boring. |
15:33 |
Carl Metropolitan |
That's normal. |
15:33 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
:-) |
15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Even now, Q&A versus live hammered dulcimer |
15:34 |
Dar (darrwen) |
I don't get out much due to classes and studies, but it would be nice to come to something here at some point. |
15:34 |
Phrynne |
vs the Tea Dance at the Bashful Peacock |
15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So 3 concurrent events. |
15:34 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
I'm missing out on Live Hammered Dulcimer? pffft! ::chomps a gummi worm to make up for it:: |
15:35 |
Phrynne |
yes, a concert at the Renaissance Faire by Earl Ghostraven. He's very good. |
15:35 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
[15:28] Nyree Rain: We have about a half hour more of music at Earl's concert. Come join us at the Renaissance Faire to hear hammered dulcimer played live! Mieville Shelley (222,187,22) |
15:35 |
Dar (darrwen) |
that sounds fun. |
15:35 |
Phrynne |
Live concert, btw, not recorded. |
15:35 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Oh nice. |
15:35 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
::sigh:: And I thought I was being good, by logging on to be here. Well ... darn! Maybe he'll play elsewhere and I'll catch it! |
15:35 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
You will be forgiven if you run off to that (although we might pout) |
15:36 |
Phrynne |
He plays inworld two or three times a year, I think. |
15:36 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
That would be wrong, and I'd get lost. ::sigh:: I'll watch for his name. |
15:36 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) makes a mark in the transcript to find it ****** |
15:37 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Is there anything we can help anyone with? Any questions we can answer? |
15:37 |
Dar (darrwen) |
yes, what happened to all the gummy bears.. (Just kidding) |
15:38 |
RainyDayRecess |
:) |
15:38 |
SecondGoldy |
well i couldnt add someone to my friendlist today.Kinda why i got late too |
15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Things you want to see or do? |
15:38 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Carriages? |
15:38 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) stands up and pireouttes (spelling) to show off the 4 (count 'em 4) gummi worms in her maw. |
15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Linden Lab implemented the gummy bears as avatars, Dar. |
15:38 |
Dar (darrwen) |
heheh |
15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Now called Jelly dolls. |
15:39 |
Dar (darrwen) |
yum |
15:39 |
Agatha Macbeth |
If they grief you just eat them... |
15:39 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
::chomps:: |
15:39 |
Dar (darrwen) |
hehe |
15:40 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Looks like a short meeting today. |
15:40 |
Carl Metropolitan |
If that happens, try logging out and logging back in. That often fixes such problems with Friends lists. |
15:40 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I had the same thing happen to me recently. |
15:40 |
SecondGoldy |
it's happened before.I still cant add that person after over 3 weeks |
15:41 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Still working on the carriages. Partly texturing the horses. |
15:41 |
RainyDayRecess |
Yes, that's taking me the longest :( |
15:42 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
There has been reports of system not recognizing that friends are inworld... |
15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
You're sure the person hasn't blocked you? |
15:42 |
SecondGoldy |
nope, i cant add even if i get a request from'em |
15:42 |
Dar (darrwen) |
wow |
15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Or just isn't responding to a friend request.? |
15:42 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Odd that |
15:43 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
file a jira? |
15:43 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Even with different viewers? |
15:43 |
SecondGoldy |
with FS group? |
15:43 |
SecondGoldy |
is there are LL support for non premium members |
15:43 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
Sure, if it's the FS viewer, or go to FSE chat group. |
15:43 |
Carl Metropolitan |
No, there is not. |
15:43 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
But you can file a jira with LL for the SL viewer too. |
15:43 |
Dar (darrwen) |
I had that problem before and it was the viewer and I had to redo it. |
15:44 |
SecondGoldy |
they couldnt help in FS chat group |
15:44 |
Carl Metropolitan |
You could try the LL viewer to see if the problem is in that viewer too |
15:44 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) nods |
15:44 |
Carl Metropolitan |
And if it is, you know it is a server problem. |
15:44 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
Or try Singularity and see if it happens with that viewer. |
15:45 |
SecondGoldy |
ok but others i can add it's just one person and than today. |
15:45 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Sometimes problems are account-specific for some reason |
15:45 |
SecondGoldy |
ok |
15:45 |
SecondGoldy |
well i'll try another viewer. ty guys |
15:45 |
SecondGoldy |
and lady. |
15:46 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
With the LL viewer, LL is more likely to consider it as their problem to solve. |
15:46 |
SecondGoldy |
ok |
15:47 |
Dar (darrwen) |
Seems like after to decided to let go of the premium membership, it seems like things keeps going wrong.. maybe it's just my imagination...heheh. I wonder.... |
15:47 |
SecondGoldy |
how do you file LL jira? |
15:47 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) dangles a gummi worm into her nearly empty cocoa cup. |
15:47 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
Gah, I don't remember SecondGoldy, and I don't have my LL avatar up. |
15:47 |
Carl Metropolitan |
It is probably not that. |
15:47 |
|
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) hangs head in shame. |
15:48 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The viewer under help has a "support portal", likely just a link to the SL webpage. |
15:48 |
SecondGoldy |
no worries.i'll just google it and call me goldy,everyone does |
15:48 |
Fidget (fidgetswidgets) |
I'll forget, but I'll try! Thanks goldy! |
15:49 |
SecondGoldy |
