15:02 | RainyDayRecess | I know right/ |
15:02 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | something at 5 i think |
15:02 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Anything new to mention, Carl? VWBPE? |
15:03 | Carl Metropolitan | I have to create our build for VWBPE next week. Should not be a problem. |
15:03 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | good to see you carl. |
15:03 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | VWBPE? |

15:03 | Carl Metropolitan | We always attend. |
15:04 | Carl Metropolitan | And have a display |
15:04 | Carl Metropolitan | Which we then recycle for SLxB :) |
15:04 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | One of the better looking displays, I might add :) |
15:04 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Nice to see you here, Aevalle. :) |
15:05 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Great to be able to be here :D |
15:05 | Carl Metropolitan | Thank you. |
15:05 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Phrynne, you had nothing new (although the apple blossoms seem to have passed)? |
15:06 | Carl Metropolitan | Oh. Trees. I forgot. |
15:06 | Phrynne | No, they should still be there. |
15:06 | Carl Metropolitan | BRB |
15:06 | Phrynne | We have apple and cherry blossoms, as well as some bluebells by the side of the railroad station |
15:07 | Phrynne | the apple tree is a little slow to rez sometimes, though |
15:07 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Phrynne is both Dean of Commons and within that Landscape artist. |
15:07 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | wb carl |
15:08 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Anything more now, Carl? |
15:09 | Carl Metropolitan | Not from me. |
15:09 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | hi gronk |
15:09 | Carl Metropolitan | Hello Gronk |
15:09 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | hi Gronk |
15:10 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Nothing really from me this week -- been buried in data analysis. A side-effect from that may turn into Q&A transcript summaries. |
15:11 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Holly and Caissa, both due to showing high responsibility and high presence, have been given powers to freeze and eject. |
15:11 | RainyDayRecess | Yay! |
15:11 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | thank you |
15:12 | Badass Fae (larkylouz) | yeah! |

15:13 | Carl Metropolitan | Thank you Holly, Caissa |
15:14 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | no thank you |
15:14 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Phrynne posted a TP sign above the schedule kiosk outside of the lecture hall, that takes one to a set of teacher tutorials that Doug Threebeards contacted us about. |
15:14 | Phrynne | (Dodge) |
15:14 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thanks Phrynne. |
15:14 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Dodge Threebeards. |
15:16 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Several of us did a review of a communication class Orange Planer has proposed. Which looked good. |
15:16 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Yes it was. |
15:16 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | So, I expect that to go live soon. |
15:17 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Sandie Harbor is taking a break for now; going to be traveling internationally. |
15:18 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Sounds fun :) |
15:18 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Wendyslippers is going to have Caissa sub for her for the role playing class. |
15:19 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | nice |
15:19 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | sitting in on that making faces in the back |
15:19 | RainyDayRecess | hehe |
15:19 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | That's it for me. Andrea? Aevalle? Kamilah? Anything you want to toss in? |
15:20 | Kamilah Hauptmann just takes out the trash around here, be they avatars or prims. | |
15:20 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | ppppffftttt |
15:20 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | I hear there are pounds around and about |
15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | There will be a live night at the Dockhouse in the Oxbridge Village on Tuesday night, the 28th @ 6.. Keeba Tammas and the Tiny Maniacs then we will have Mamaa saiz. Both are live on the parcel steam. Many thanks to everyone who came to the Annual Caledon Oxbridge University Ball last night.

15:20 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | the campus, I mean |
15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | oops last week |
15:21 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | YAY!!!! |
15:21 | Kamilah Hauptmann | There, a bunch of them on the stage, get em while htey're hot. |
15:21 | Carl Metropolitan | There are pounds on the stage. I just got one. |
15:21 | Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
15:21 | Phrynne | click on it, pay 0 Lindens, and 'take' |
15:22 | Carl Metropolitan | Every year, Kamilah creates a commemorative Caledon pound highlighting some element of Caledon's culture or history. |
15:22 | Kamilah Hauptmann | Maybe one day I'll script something, or not, I'll keep making people know how to use the SL UI. |
15:22 | Carl Metropolitan | If you want to see a full set, I think she has them all on display at Lionsgate. |
15:22 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Is that the train depot in Vic City on the new one, Kami? |
15:22 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | not seeing anything |
15:22 | RainyDayRecess | Thank you Kamilah ;) |
15:22 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Lionsgate was lost, Carl :( |
15:22 | Kamilah Hauptmann | Lionsgate is no more, but there's a museum uner development in sout VictoriaCity. |
15:22 | Phrynne looks forward to the museum | |
15:23 | Carl Metropolitan | Oh. I'm sorry. |
15:23 | Kamilah Hauptmann | Des mad eme an offer I couldn't refuse. |
15:23 | Carl Metropolitan | What sort of stuff will the museum have? |
15:23 | Carl Metropolitan | Other than a collection of Oxbridge Pounds, clearly :) |
15:23 | Kamilah Hauptmann | It would have hasd the no copy stuff I forgot to pick up from Lionsgate. c: |
15:24 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Did the dirigible make the move? |
15:24 | Carl Metropolitan | Can you rez lionsgate on a sandbox sim to grab some of that? |
15:24 | Kamilah Hauptmann | Kendra Bancroft police helmets, Cavorite Mine paraphenalia, Mndserrat orchid set. |
15:24 | Kamilah Hauptmann | LL would need to respawn the sim. |
15:25 | Carl Metropolitan | All the good stuff I've had related to Caledon has been auctioned off over the years to support Oxbridge I think. |
15:25 | Carl Metropolitan | But I am certain if you put out a call, there are a lot of collectors who would love to help. |
15:25 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Larky did you have anything? |
15:26 | Badass Fae (larkylouz) | No. Just finally almost healthy again. Maybe next week. |
15:26 | Phrynne | Glad you're feeling etter! |
15:26 | Phrynne | or better! |
15:27 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Essentially, Larky can resign all she want, but can never leave. |
15:27 | RainyDayRecess | :D |
15:27 | Carl Metropolitan | I tried to resign and they would not let me go. |
15:28 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | ::P |
15:28 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | It's like Hotel California |
15:28 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Hotel Caledonia |
15:28 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Okay, open for general questions. |
15:28 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | O.O |
15:28 | RainyDayRecess | Hahaha |
15:28 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | haha |
15:28 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | has some steely knives |
15:28 | Phrynne | but our beasts are friendly! |
15:29 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | oo that's a thought, a hotel in caledon called hotel caledon. entrance but no exit |
15:29 | Phrynne | hmmm |
15:29 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And many thanks to Andrea and Patty for running the fundraiser. |
15:29 | Carl Metropolitan | Like the Roach Motel |
15:29 | Phrynne | I'd be interested to see the scripting for no exit |
15:30 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | we have visitors lol |
15:30 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Carl, what's our current patron count? |
15:30 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | hides face |
15:31 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | (I generally get asked mid-week) |
15:31 | Carl Metropolitan | I don't know. I need to check the records and see who is contributing versus who I have on the books. |
15:32 | Carl Metropolitan | Please email me if I don't do that by wednesday. |
15:32 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Okay. |
15:32 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | If there's an open spot, I can contribute. |
15:32 | Carl Metropolitan makes a note of that. | |
15:32 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | ty Aevalle (bows) |
15:32 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | yw :) |
15:33 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Oh |
15:34 | Phrynne | oooh |
15:35 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | That's a nonfunctional (yet) mesh schedule kiosk I'll be bringing up. Note up to 5 buttons on the bottom for different venues. |
15:35 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) facepalms, as she at first read "Salsa Verde" at the bottom | |
15:35 | RainyDayRecess | :D |
15:35 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | A salsa venue with salsa verde? Might be able to arrange that. ;) |
15:37 | Badass Fae (larkylouz) | :^) |
15:37 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | This will allow scheduling of multiple classes at the same time (but not in the same place) |
15:37 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | awesome :) |
15:38 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | so the photo salon class has changed? |
15:38 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Tali already did a scheduling interface that allows specifying "location". Once I cut over to scheduling via that, the rest will fall into place. |
15:39 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Oh, don't read the actual schedule on this. It's not current. |
15:39 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | shew |
15:40 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | (southern for thank goodness) |
15:40 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Right. I just put one up I had at the time. Mesh kiosk with 5 button areas - 1 LI |
15:40 | RainyDayRecess | Nice work! |
15:41 | Kamilah Hauptmann | And made by Wordsmith so I don't imagine it will disappear into a jumble of triangles as you move your camera back. |
15:41 | Carl Metropolitan | Yes. I have to redo an unfortunate mesh item I made for the main hall that has that problem. |
15:41 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | No. It won't. |
15:42 | RainyDayRecess | LoD Physics shapes ;) He knows all about them |
15:42 | Carl Metropolitan | There are still plenty of unclaimed Caledon pounds up on the stage |
15:42 | Phrynne | Yes, the stage doesn't have freckles |
15:42 | RainyDayRecess | ;D |
15:43 | Kamilah Hauptmann will have a shame scoreboard up fo rwho takes the most. | |
15:43 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Rainy, you wouldn't happen to have a horse with carriage prototype you could rez for a minute? |
15:43 | Badass Fae (larkylouz) | 0.0 |
15:43 | RainyDayRecess | I think so...... |
15:43 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | The campus will have horseys again??? Yay! |
15:43 | Carl Metropolitan | Oh that would be wonderful |
15:44 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Very nice horseys. |
15:44 | Phrynne | oh, great horse! |
15:44 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) puts a bid in for griffins or gargoyles as next on the wish list | |
15:44 | Gronk Seriman | I miss the cloppa cloppa of hoves in the Village. |
15:45 | Phrynne | that's a great carriage, too |
15:45 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | It is! |
15:45 | RainyDayRecess | Ty ;) |
15:45 | Carl Metropolitan | That is beautifucl |
15:45 | Gronk Seriman | Ooo! |
15:45 | Carl Metropolitan | ful |
15:45 | RainyDayRecess | :D |
15:45 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Will these be able to be dressed up for Yule? |
15:45 | RainyDayRecess | Probably |
15:46 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | \o/ |
15:46 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | She's also animated the horse in Blender, which I now need to translate into scripting. |
15:46 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | O.O yay rainy |
15:47 | RainyDayRecess | Hehe, thank you ;) |
15:47 | Kamilah Hauptmann | Rig it with Bento and con a noob itno an RLV viewer to serve as the horse. |
15:47 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And we'll include a nice clop clop clop ........ |
15:47 | RainyDayRecess | Hahaha |
15:47 | Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) | lol |
15:47 | lovejoy2199 | BTW: I have been taking 'pod' rides around SL. I have always wonder if there was not a way of adding that here. |
15:48 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Should we record that using coconuts? (of course they are tropical and this is a temperate clime) |
15:48 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | The horseys and trains used to be our "pods" around Caledon. |
15:48 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | But losing sims broke several of the routes |
15:48 | Phrynne | But if we have swallows, they might bring coconuts. |
15:48 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | They ..... might. |
15:49 | Gronk Seriman | African or European? |
15:49 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | trains are back up mostly, The CATS, and soon the carriages in the vilage |
15:49 | RainyDayRecess | Yay! |
15:49 | RainyDayRecess | Almost back to normal! |
15:50 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Anything else? |
15:50 | Carl Metropolitan | That was one of my trivia questions. The only correct answer was "African or Eurpoean" Any other answer got you ejected. But some people thought it was not funny. |
15:50 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Normal's a relative term :-D |
15:50 | Phrynne | depends on who your relatives are :) |
15:51 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Seems like time to adjourn. |
15:51 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thank you all for coming. |
15:51 | RainyDayRecess | Thank you Deans :D |
15:51 | Carl Metropolitan | Goodnight |
15:51 | Aevalle Galicia-Constantine (aevalle.galicia) | Thank you :) |
15:51 | Kamilah Hauptmann had a big red button labeled Do Not Press that banned people fro 5 minutes. I'd get all caps rage NO FAIR IMs. | |
15:51 | Carl Metropolitan | Still pounds on the stage. |
15:51 | Gronk Seriman | Carl, I hate to report that the parachute dispenser at the edge of this sim no longer gives [arachutes. |
15:52 | Carl Metropolitan | Hmm... It was Brace's wasn't it? I wonder if it broke. |
15:52 | Badass Fae (larkylouz) | You all emptied the parachute toy! um uh uh uh |
15:52 | Carl Metropolitan | No |
15:52 | Kamilah Hauptmann potters off to drop in briefly on OTenth's thing. | |
15:53 | Carl Metropolitan | I will see if it is fixable, but it looks like it is run by remote script from a server. |
15:53 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | hi red |
15:53 | Carl Metropolitan | Hello Red |
15:53 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | bye all |

15:55 | star (astarynite) wonders who the masked figure is at the entranceway |
