Stereo nacht is putting it on. It ends this weekend with the Newcomers ball |
15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This next weekend? |
15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
As the COU gets donations from it. Caledonian Nights has provided rides and games to complement the event |
15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Yes I believe next weekend |
15:14 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
There are prize games to play, a roller coaster ride, food, and other rides |
15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And from what I saw last night, there's a lot set up. |
15:14 |
Kara2016 |
its going too be a fun event. |
15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
The Castle of the Dead can be seen behind everything in the SSC sim. |
15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I lost a few days to travel this week (at least relative to Oxbridge). |
15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Instructor stipends are paid through yesterday. |
15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Doing the financial through yesterday, It looks like the coins that were out for the fundraiser through the end of October have collected about 26k $L. |
15:20 |
Kara2016 |
WOW! |
15:20 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I would mention that the fund raising tracking has been reset for this new event |
15:20 |
RainyDayRecess |
YAY!! |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Right now, we're at a total of 267k $L with a nominal goal of being back at 300k $L when I next pay tier in early January. |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
That includes paying stipends along the way, so it's more than just the current difference. |
15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oxbridge is remaining stable via having a supporting community. |
15:22 |
RainyDayRecess |
;) |
15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, and Agatha, I'll likely be giving you a hot air balloon by the end of the week in coordination with Star. |
15:24 |
Agatha Macbeth |
OHh great |
15:24 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Balloons a gogo |
15:24 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Thank you sir |
15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It has a mesh base based on a Saki Cup. |
15:25 |
Agatha Macbeth |
How innovative :) |
15:25 |
RainyDayRecess |
:D |
15:25 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:25 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:26 |

Agatha Macbeth loves inspired creation |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I think that's it for my week. |
15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Open for general questions. |
15:27 |
|
Gronk Seriman raises her hand. |
15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Gronk? |
15:28 |
Gronk Seriman |
Is it possible, or even useful to display the Aether Chrononauts calendar somewhere on campus? |
15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There's a link to it on the board to the left of the lecture hall door. |
15:28 |
Gronk Seriman |
It would be a great answer for the eternal question, "Where can I go now" What is there to do in SL?" |
15:29 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ah! |
15:29 |
Gronk Seriman |
I should have looked first. |
15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Low down and just to the left of the class schedule. |
15:29 |
Gronk Seriman |
*first |
15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Asking here is fine. |
15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And there are the two poster boards of what to do in Caledon and what to do in the Steamlands that Tasha and I updated a couple of months ago. |
15:32 |
Kara2016 |
I have them. |
15:32 |
Gronk Seriman |
Yes. Those are very nice. |
15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else? |
15:34 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Oh |
15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, I did encourage some chatting on the COUS group last night, the S being for Social. |
15:34 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh |
15:34 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I do intend for the next COU fundraiser to be more of a group effort |
15:35 |
RainyDayRecess |
Okay ;) |
15:35 |
RainyDayRecess |
You work too hard as it is ;) |
15:35 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'll let everyone know what we are looking at so others can become involved to help us raise operating funds |
15:36 |
Kara2016 |
Smiles brightly. |
15:36 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
looks back at Wordsmith |
15:36 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Agatha, was that merely a reflexive "Oh" or did you have something more? |
15:37 |
Agatha Macbeth |
It was as reflexive as they come sir |
15:37 |
Kara2016 |
giggles. |
15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(smiles) |
15:37 |
Gronk Seriman |
I sometimes wonder if it would be a good thing to try a Caledon Reunion event. Spread the word far and wide, and try to get some of the faces still in SL to come back for a reunion of sorts. |
15:37 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
ooo |
15:38 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
maybe the Christmas event |
15:38 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
fundraiser and reunion |
15:38 |
Kara2016 |
that sounds good. |
15:38 |
Kara2016 |
though they sill would be new too me. |
15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Imagines airships with banners warping into different continents and islands. |
15:39 |
Kara2016 |
giggles. |
15:39 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
a structural integrity field would keep that warping from happening |
15:39 |
RainyDayRecess |
O.o |
15:40 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And Rainy has been working on pins with the rabbit mascot. |
15:40 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

15:40 |
Kara2016 |

15:41 |
RainyDayRecess |

15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

15:42 |
RainyDayRecess |

15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else? |
15:42 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
It's shaping up nicely, the pins, we will have one for both patron levels |
15:43 |
RainyDayRecess |
Is there a sample of the other pins somewhere to see? |
15:43 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
not that i am aware of |
15:43 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
no pressure |
15:44 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There are other pins? |
15:44 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
We had the donation pins etc |
15:44 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) checks his needles |
15:44 |
RainyDayRecess |
Oh, I thought you said you had someone working on the other pins |
15:44 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
but these are new |
15:44 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
no |
15:44 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) checks if anybody has dropped any pins |
15:45 |
Gronk Seriman |
Is there still that nice Patron clock award? The one I envy and can't afford? |
15:45 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
My sound is turned off, I can't here a pin drop |
15:45 |
RainyDayRecess |
So I thought there were pins made by somebody else for the Sponsors and Patrons at higher levels.....no? |
15:45 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Yes, Gronk |
15:45 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
No. |
15:45 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Just yours |
15:45 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There is. I'll be distributing them no that my schedule is slacked for a bit. |
15:45 |
RainyDayRecess |

15:46 |

Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) receives a call from one of the angels at the end of the pin; the need a DJ |
15:46 |
RainyDayRecess |
