Gronk Seriman |
Heh! |

Gronk Seriman |
You flew up the hard way? |
14:58 |
star (astarynite) |
with icarus wings |
14:58 |
star (astarynite) |
not too bad |
14:59 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(rubs the spot where he hit his head on reality) |
14:59 |
Gronk Seriman |
No, It's not. But I usually cheat and fly from the Atelier of the Sandbox. Gets you most of the way there already. |
14:59 |
star (astarynite) |
I didn't know |
14:59 |
star (astarynite) |
that |
14:59 |
Gronk Seriman |
*or the Sandbox. |
15:00 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There is a TP panel at the chat circle below. |
15:00 |
star (astarynite) |
I knew this building was abov eme but the ladies dressing room surprised me when i slammed into it |
15:00 |
Gronk Seriman |
That's too easy. |

Vesper Lynd (jucastt) |

15:02 |

It comes up to the bronze panel just down the fron steps here (before you fall off the edge) |
15:02 |

Welcome to the Oxbridge Deans' Q&A |
15:04 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
AFAIK, it's a two dean night. |
15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This may be a relatively short meeting. |
15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Carl isn't feeling well. No word that I'm aware of on Brace. |
15:06 |
Agatha Macbeth |
:( |
15:06 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
so there's usually more than two on stage? |
15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes. Most often 4. Sometimes 5. |
15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The various deans are listed on the admin page of the Oxbridge website at caledonoxbridge.org |
15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, did you have anything for today? (Phrynne being head Dean of Commons) |
15:09 |
Phrynne |
Yes, I do -- the Advent Calendar is ready to go! |
15:09 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Yay |
15:09 |
RainyDayRecess |
Yay |
15:09 |
|
star (astarynite) raises her hand |
15:09 |
Gronk Seriman |
Yay! |
15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Star? |
15:09 |
star (astarynite) |
do we make a donation for it? |
15:10 |
Phrynne |
We are going to be giving away a gift a day, Dec. 1 through Dec. 24, in the stained-glass gazebo. |
15:10 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
A new box magically appears every day with the old ones staying present. |
15:10 |
Phrynne |
Star, this is free -- it is Oxbridge's gift to SEcond Life -- though if you want to make a donation you are welcome to do so, but it's not required. |
15:10 |
Phrynne |
All the boxes are available to whoever comes, not just on a specific day. |
15:11 |
star (astarynite) |
ok, thanks, it is a nice gift to do that |
15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Donations are always appreciated. |
15:11 |
Phrynne |
The theme this year is Home -- and we are giving away homes, furniture, decorations and much more. |
15:11 |
star (astarynite) |
are the gifts made bymembers of Oxford? |
15:12 |
Phrynne |
The gifts are made by a long list of people who shall remain anonymous, both from Oxbridge and Caledon and elsewhere. |
15:12 |
star (astarynite) |
ok, thanks |
15:12 |
Phrynne |
I would strongly suggest opening the package you get up on the sandbox. Some of them are small. Some of them are houses. |
15:12 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh my |
15:13 |
|
star (astarynite) grins |
15:13 |
star (astarynite) |
this is exciting |
15:13 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
Copy/mod? |
15:13 |
Phrynne |
I also want to give a huge amount of credit and thanks to Asst. Dean Jorge Serapis, who had the idea for the theme, and who was there working on it with me every step of the way. |
15:13 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) remembers opening a huge chess set in a wrong place |
15:13 |
Phrynne |
Individual gifts have varying perms. |
15:13 |
Phrynne |
I am not going to predict them here. |
15:14 |
|
Agatha Macbeth applauds Jorge |
15:14 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
I suspected that |
15:14 |
|
star (astarynite) giggles |
15:14 |
Phrynne |
All the boxes will be available until the New Year. |
15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Likely depending on the nature of the gift. |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
Some are serious and some are just for fun. |
15:15 |
|
Cpt. Jack Greenfox (jackgreen1) dreams of a tall ship and a star to steer her by... |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
and I hope you will all come and take part . |
15:15 |
Phrynne |
Unfortunately, Jack, I regret to say there are no tall ships in the boxes this year. |
15:15 |
|
star (astarynite) smiles to Cpt Jack Greenfox |
15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Sea Fever, Cpt Jack |
15:15 |
Kara2016 |
Smiles brightly. |
15:16 |
Cpt. Jack Greenfox (jackgreen1) |
aye sure got me good |
15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Perhaps next year. |
15:16 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Arr |
15:16 |
|
Cpt. Jack Greenfox (jackgreen1) can still dream.. |
15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
One can. |
15:16 |
Phrynne |
I am also going to be redecorating for the change of seasons, but that will depend on when the seasons change, so if you see plants moving or objects coming and going, that is probably why |
15:17 |
|
star (astarynite) raises her hand again |
15:17 |
Phrynne |
Yes, Star? |
15:17 |
star (astarynite) |
si the snow will come with the redecorating? |
15:17 |
star (astarynite) |
so |
15:17 |
Phrynne |
I have no control over the snow. |
15:17 |
star (astarynite) |
hmmm |
15:17 |
Alexandra de Thebes (antigonethebes2) |

15:17 |
Agatha Macbeth |

15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anyone else want a copy of the poem "Sea Fever"? |
15:18 |
star (astarynite) |
please |
15:18 |
Phrynne |
The snow comes when Guvnah Shang wills it. |
15:18 |
Rowan Entilles (rowan900) |
yes, sir |
15:18 |

ahhhhhh |

15:18 |

15:18 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Freeze a jolly good fellow |
15:18 |
Phrynne |
I hope to have a skating rink available, as well as various snowmen |
15:18 |
RainyDayRecess |

15:18 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
boo |
15:19 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Yay snowmen! |
15:19 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ooo! And a snowball giver? |
15:20 |
|
Phrynne smiles mysteriously |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea already has snow down on her parcels in Village. |
15:20 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) wonders how many people he will end up ejecting this year for snowball fights. |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
One has a small skating rink. |
15:20 |
Phrynne |
Yes, no snowball fights in the plaza... |
15:20 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Aww |
15:20 |
star (astarynite) |
fun |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We might turn an eye if elsewhere if good judgment and mutuality are in place. |
15:21 |
Phrynne |
And also if it is not in the plaza but over in the open area between the fountain and the chat circle |
15:21 |
Phrynne |
or along the waterfront toward Cymru |
15:22 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Da iawn |
15:22 |
Phrynne |
yep |
15:23 |
Phrynne |
Anyway, between the Calendar and the decorations, that's what is going on in Commons. |
15:23 |
Agatha Macbeth |
W00t |
15:23 |
Kara2016 |
smiles brightly. |
15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Perhaps I should change the COLT to a holiday texture (after completing a house, of course) |
15:24 |
Phrynne |
:) |
15:25 |
star (astarynite) |
that sounds like fun |
15:26 |
Gronk Seriman |
Maybe put antlers and a red nose on it. |
15:26 |
Phrynne |
lol |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've nothing much specific to Oxbridge this week., however I have ridden on Jillian this past week (Jillian being a CAT airship) |
15:26 |
Phrynne |
Where is she flying? |
15:26 |
star (astarynite) |
is that the one that is coming back for repairs? |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, good idea, Gronk. |
15:27 |
RainyDayRecess |
One stop is the Iron Cloud |
15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
She's flying out the the Iron Cloud. |
15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'm forgetting the rest of the stops. Actually because of a seating problem, I was playing crazy dean chasing the airship on an aether board. |
15:28 |
star (astarynite) |
lol |
15:28 |
Phrynne |
And no photos? |

Aww |

|
Agatha Macbeth loves to see crazy deans |
15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Controlling an over-powred aether board at altitude becomes ...... interesting. |
15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Something could likely be arranged and then announced. |
15:31 |
Kara2016 |
smiles brightly. |
15:32 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
what is an aether board? |
15:32 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Which reminds me. Kara has her floor back. ;) |

15:32 |

A flying contraption made by Ilsa munro some years back. |
15:33 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Carriages? |
15:33 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
I've found flying ANYTHING to be diifficullt (skybvoxes, security obs....) |
15:33 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) ducks |
15:34 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Ducks are cute |
15:34 |

Still working on them |
15:34 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
disrobing at sim crossings.... |
15:34 |
Gronk Seriman |
No ducks, but we have exploding chickens in the Village. |
15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I figured out where I had one that was not powered up, Elf. |
15:34 |
Kara2016 |
and there is an exploding turkey at tanglewood. |
15:35 |
Phrynne |
there is always an exploding turkey at Tanglewood, and if you are on the train it will chase the train. |

There's also an evil My Little Unicorn in Wellsian that wants to push you into lava. |
15:36 |

Oh that I need to see |
15:36 |

However, I have not seen the exploding penguins in a couple of years, so I hope they have gone elsewhere. They wer emessy. |
15:37 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
that sounds interesting |
15:37 |
|
Cpt. Jack Greenfox (jackgreen1) migrated north perhaps.. |
15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Likely a good time to open it up for questions and announcements. |
15:37 |
|
Agatha Macbeth has fond memories of exploding sheep |
15:38 |
Kara2016 |
ouch. |
15:38 |

Good to hear, that you have better access. |
15:40 |

Anything else? Wishes? Annoyances? Desires (within reason, Sim rating, and mutual consent)? |
15:45 |
RainyDayRecess |
:D |
15:47 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
LL is planning to increase prim allotments for private sims (includes Caledon) within the next couple of months. That will up Oxbridge to 5000 from the current 3750. |
15:48 |
RainyDayRecess |
Yay!! |
15:48 |
Phrynne |
What that means, among other things, is that I will not have to juggle trees quite so carefully as I do now. |
15:48 |
Rowan Entilles (rowan900) |
most excellent! huzzah! |
15:48 |
Phrynne |
And it opens other possibilities as well. |
15:48 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Although watching Phrynne juggle trees ... now that's a demo. |
15:48 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
I suspect it willl be like highwways - no matter how wide they are, they're stilll too small |
15:49 |
Gronk Seriman |
I wonder if that will apply to their Crummy Linden Houses, too. |
15:49 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
yes!!! |
15:49 |
Phrynne |
It's more about the LI than anything else. |
15:49 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
i have a whopping 115 LI! |
15:49 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
175 |
15:49 |
ღ Mαyα ღ (mayaserenacenedra) |
It did. The limit on mine is already higher |
15:49 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) juggles oil tankers filled with leprecauns tattooed with scenes from the Water Margin. |
15:50 |
Rowan Entilles (rowan900) |
does it apply to LI in general? |
15:50 |
star (astarynite) |
does that mean more people can be at Caledon at one time? |
15:50 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It seems to be a result of sim hardware and software improvements since the original limits were set. |
15:50 |
star (astarynite) |
say oin the New Resident area? |
15:50 |
star (astarynite) |
in |
15:50 |

I haven't heard anything about avatar limit changes |
15:50 |
Rєη Ɗяαgσηѕєєкєя (lvddawter) |
that would be nice.... but I suspect not |
15:50 |

ok |

Cpt. Jack Greenfox (jackgreen1) wonders if there are builders clubs or guilds, that take the intermediate and advanced classes further? |
15:52 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We've had building office hours before. |
15:54 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Could find someone to do that if there's enough continued interest. |
15:54 |
