15:03 lovejoy2199 Hello Liska
15:04 Ember (emberell) And lastly, Oxbridge will be having its fundraiser following the Q&A here today - all welcome to attend. Today's themed dance is at the D&D build, which I'm happy to distribute LMs for to those interested
15:04 Ember (emberell) Welcome, Arien
15:04 Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) Tonight's movie is a classic, "Airplane"
15:04 Ember (emberell) Oooh. That'll be fun, Liska
15:04 Ember (emberell) With that said, those are the general announcements. So I will open for questions now, if we have any!
15:04 Ember (emberell) Questions, announcements, general curiosities... or even puns, if you have them
15:05 Ember (emberell) How can I be of assistance today? ♥
15:05 Katie (katie.canningham) What do you think of the recent condensing of Caledon?
15:05 Ember (emberell) It's always sad to lose regions here, but in the end it's for the best - by losing a few regions the remaining regions can be stronger.
15:06 Ember (emberell) It does however cause some issues that some are seeing with the SL URLs today
15:06 Ember (emberell) Welcome, Serena!
15:06 Katie (katie.canningham) 'tis true - have you seen Port Caledon? It's practically bustling now!
15:06 Ember (emberell) Yes!
15:06 Ember (emberell) I think in the end it'll encourage a tighter community too
15:06 Katie (katie.canningham) ships at the piers!
15:06 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) It is due to lack of tenants.
15:06 Ember (emberell) nods
15:06 Katie (katie.canningham) I will fiercely miss Kintyre though
15:06 Ember (emberell) Yes
15:06 Ember (emberell) Tanglewood, too.
15:07 Ember (emberell) And kittiwickshire
15:07 Ember (emberell) WEll, all of them :_)
15:07 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Some of the older tenants have left both worlds.
15:07 Katie (katie.canningham) I'm kicking myself - I thought I had a few more days to go take pictures :(
15:07 Ember (emberell) nods
15:07 Ember (emberell) One good lesson in SL - always take pictures
15:07 Ember (emberell) You never know when the last time you'll see something is
15:07 Katie (katie.canningham) or someone
15:07 Ember (emberell) nods
15:07 Ember (emberell) Other questions?
15:08 Ember (emberell) Oh, following up on that question - Caledon's world map will be out of sorts for a few days as it updates
15:08 Ember (emberell) so don't be surprised if things look a bit off from that view
15:09 Ember (emberell) It'll fix itself soon
15:09 Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) Also, be careful at certain sim crossings, like from the Village to Southend, until the roads are realigned
15:10 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) badgerofzen gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:10 Ember (emberell) All questions are welcome - regarding SL, Caledon, Oxbridge... so long as they're generally appropriate. If you're concerned or would rather ask in private do feel free to IM me here
15:10 Ember (emberell) That's a good point, Liska
15:10 Ember (emberell) Thank you for the donation, Badger! Every bit is so appreciated.
15:10 badgerofzen :)
15:10 Katie (katie.canningham) Badger Of Zen!
15:10 lovejoy2199 First thing I will do is check the 'train Stations'. See how many times I end up in water.
15:10 Ember (emberell) The train system is going to need to be completely redone
15:10 Ember (emberell) as is the CAT system
15:11 badgerofzen hullo katie
15:11 Katie (katie.canningham) smiles and waves
15:11 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Lots of rescripting to do.
15:11 Ember (emberell) Yes
15:11 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Don't pester Jorge too much about it.
15:11 Ember (emberell) It will be some time before it is available again.
15:11 Ember (emberell) Yes, please give them time to work :-)
15:11 Ember (emberell) Well. I am hearing no more questions. Anyone?
15:11 Ember (emberell) I'm tempted to call it early, but I do want to make sure everyone gets a chance to ask whatever might be on the mind
15:12 Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) Is Andrea not feeling well?
15:12 lovejoy2199 Too bad we are not part of SLRR
15:12 Ember (emberell) Andrea needed to lay down and recover a time before the fundraiser
15:12 Katie (katie.canningham) I saw her at the Salon earlier
15:12 Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) OK
15:13 Ember (emberell) So I'm taking some time to give her space to rest.
15:13 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) She was in Oxbridge earlier. At least one of her
15:13 Ember (emberell) I'll be at the fundraiser later too for the same reason
15:13 lovejoy2199 Is she feeling any better?
15:13 Ember (emberell) MAybe now that she is resting
15:13 Ember (emberell) I hope so
15:13 Katie (katie.canningham) crosses her fingers
15:13 Ember (emberell) But that is a good reminder - everyone is welcome to join us at the dance at 4:00 :-)
15:14 Ember (emberell) Hearing no further questions, though, I'm going to go ahead and call today's Q&A session here. I'll linger, as always, just in case anyone has any final questions on the way out.
15:14 Katie (katie.canningham) many thanks Ember!
15:14 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:14 Ember (emberell) as always, thank you all for coming. Oxbridge is nothing without her students
