15:10 | lovejoy2199 | Hello Andrea |
15:11 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Ember, what would you have from Commons today? |
15:12 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | please excuse me brb |
15:12 | Ember (emberell) | I've been busy working on updating and editing notecards for the faculty kit. We're still welcoming new tutor applications - for anyone einterested in working to help newcomers here at OXbridge, they can contact me (or other tutors) about applications. |
15:12 | Ember (emberell) | Commons has been fairly peaceful lately though. that's about it from me. |
15:13 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thank you, Ember |
15:13 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And, now to Andrea, freshly returned. |
15:14 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | We have a fundraiser today as part of our bi weekly fund raisers. It will be in the fabulous clock work ballroom. |
15:14 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | We meet at 4 after the q&a. with dj Sasha as out dj |
15:14 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | not sure what kind of music she will provide for a clock work theme, but i'm interested to see |
15:15 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | the lam |
15:15 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | oops LM Caledon Oxbridge Village (166,230,3598) |
15:15 | Gronk Seriman woots! | |
15:15 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I'll leave just a bit early to go and finish a few things. Been in bed all day....Otherwise we are looking good on funds for the University. |
15:17 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | This time of year we try to put ba ck a little extra due to other fundriasers that start this time of year and RL is still putting a hold on finances for many of us. |
15:17 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Back to you Wordsmith |
15:18 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thank you, Andrea |
15:20 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | I caught up on paying instructor stipends yesterday. We are 67 days into the quarter, which is our liability of 55k $L, We have a surplus of about 120k $L above my nominal reserve of 225k $L. Than basically means we could run for about 3.4 quarters with current funds. |
15:21 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | :-) |
15:21 | Gronk Seriman | Nice! |
15:21 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Thank you to everyone who donates. |
15:22 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | I'm still working on the last few translation graphics for building 2 (avatar movement), doing screen shots and a few text updates. |

15:24 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | I've got one crisis to attend to: This morning I discovered the schedule in the Java scheduling interface was blanked, but fortunately not the lecture definitions. It also appears that a PHP update has clobbered the interface to that on our website. That's likely an easy fix, but is an immediate need. |
15:25 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | Aw cripes |
15:25 | Ember (emberell) | Oh no. |
15:25 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | :-( |
15:25 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | That's how I generate the inworld texture images |
15:25 | Kana Sakuraba (rollingthundercloud) | did one of the hamsters conk out on its wheel? |
15:25 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And what I monitor classes agains. |
