Hello everyone ;) |
| 14:58 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thanks Kara and Cal. Every bit helps. |
| 15:00 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Hello Rainy. |
| 15:00 |
Caledon Rasalgethi (saeldurrae) |
Rainy! *hugs* |
| 15:00 |
RainyDayRecess |
Hello Lia, how are you doing? |
| 15:01 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Time to start. |
| 15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome to this week's Caledon Oxbridge Deans' Q&A. This is an open meeting; all are welcome apart from those who intend to misbehave in a disruptive manner. Non-disruptive misbehavior is at your discretion. Transcripts will be posted after the meeting. |
| 15:03 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, can you start? |
| 15:03 |
Phrynne |
Yes, I have two things |
| 15:03 |
Phrynne |
First, I wanted you all to know that Caledon Oxbridge has opened a Consulate in the independent country of Jadida Mondrago. |
| 15:04 |
Phrynne |
This is a place where people can get information on classes at Oxbridge, as well as books (from our library) on travels in the Mediterranean and elsewhere, and references on Steampunk. |
| 15:04 |
Phrynne |
The grand opening has not happened yet, but it will. |
| 15:05 |
Phrynne |
At this point I'm finalizing bits and pieces of the exhibit in the building -- it is two rooms, one for information and one for conference. |
| 15:05 |
Gronk Seriman |
Very nice! |
| 15:05 |
Phrynne |
And when the Grand Opening is scheduled, I'll be sure to let you know. |
| 15:05 |
Phrynne |
The second item is a bit sadder. |
| 15:05 |
Phrynne |
The Exploratorium, a General-rated science museum, is a copy of a museum in San Francisco, created by that museum's creator, who has died. The inworld museum is to be taken down next month. Walk through it and play with optical illusions, solar eclipses, information on nuclear reactors, and much much more. Do it now, before it goes away |
| 15:06 |
Phrynne |
Exploratorium (129,161,28) |
| 15:06 |
Samm Florian |
:( |
| 15:06 |
Phrynne |
It's a great place and you should see it before it vanishes |
| 15:07 |
Phrynne |
And that's all from me for now. |
| 15:08 |
Gronk Seriman |
Wow. How sad. |
| 15:08 |
RainyDayRecess |
;( |
| 15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
That is sad that they are not able to maintain the inworld display. The RL Exploratorium is a great place for some experiential science. |
| 15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thanks, Phrynne. |
| 15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea? |
| 15:09 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

| 15:11 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

| 15:11 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |

| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Will be seeing to an April event soon |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Many thanks |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
looks back to Wordsmith |
| 15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Nothing much from me this week due to RL needs and a minor flu bug. |
| 15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Some minor improvements of organization on translations. |
| 15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, and the CVL-Caledon Sci-Fi short story discussion is this Thursday at 5pm. I'll be posting details on COUG and ISC again. It will be held at the Meeting Center in Southend.. |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
With that, open for general questions, comments, etc. |
| 15:16 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Was it where the last one was, with the yellow overcast thing on the top? |
| 15:16 |
Phrynne |
If you mean in South End, yes, though I think the roof has been raised a little. |
| 15:17 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Ahhh, Okay, Thank you. |
| 15:17 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Still intending to host the Writers' Meeting in Thursdays 11:00 AM.... |
| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yep. I'm going to modify the roof a bit before the meeting. It's been raised by stretching, but needs a mod at the mesh level. |
| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
ty for that Elfbiter. |
| 15:19 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Not earlier, unlikely to be later. |
| 15:19 |
|
Gronk Seriman dances in her bench a little and raises her hands in the "raise the roof" style. |
| 15:19 |
|
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) chuckles at Gronk. |
| 15:19 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Haha |
| 15:19 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
:-) |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Miss Gronk? |
| 15:20 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ho comment, just having fun! |
| 15:20 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
....Gronk just wanna have fu-un... |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Fun is good. The greater the intelligence, the greater the need for play. |
| 15:21 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
Otherwise one goes slightly mad. |
| 15:21 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
On top of the madness already present *laughs* |
| 15:21 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
If one takes oneself too seriously, one certainly goes mad.... |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I thought one had to be slightly crazy to stay sane. |
| 15:21 |
Gronk Seriman |
All work and no play makes Homer a dull boy. |
| 15:22 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
See that's the thing, Word. Crazy has levels... |
| 15:22 |
Sandie Harbour |
It is crazy to be sane |
| 15:22 |
RainyDayRecess |
:D |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The sweet spot is somewhere between total chaos and complete stagnation. |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else for today? |
| 15:24 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
Good luck finding that spot *laughs* |
| 15:24 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Carriages? |
| 15:24 |
RainyDayRecess |
Carriages are done, but still working on the horse, working on it today |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Requires Rainy getting a life back (from work). |
| 15:25 |
RainyDayRecess |
Seriously |
| 15:25 |
RainyDayRecess |
Been working on it today, the animations |
| 15:25 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Wait, we will be able to ride carriages on school grounds officially? |
| 15:25 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
:D ?! |
| 15:25 |
Phrynne |
Not that kind of carriage, Lia. |
| 15:25 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Oh |
| 15:25 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Awwwww |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It will be a set route into Village and back. |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Other matters? |
| 15:27 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
Other than I'm already hating DST? Nope. |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hearing none, |
| 15:27 |
Phrynne |
You and me both, Caladon |
| 15:27 |
Gronk Seriman |
How close are things to installing the translating boards in the Orientation? |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We are adjourned to the Bashful Peacock and the Rose Hunt, etc. |
| 15:28 |
Samm Florian |
The Rose Hunt is goin' on today if you don't already know. |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Sweet Dreams Elfbiter |
| 15:29 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Do we collect them? like how in the caledon quest we have to click the medals? |
| 15:29 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Be seeing you |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
A Caledon tradition Lia. Roses are hidden on each sim (limited edition). |
| 15:29 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Another challenge accepted! |
| 15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And you search, find if you can, and touch to collect. |
| 15:30 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |
One of our very few remaining traditions *grumbles slightly* |
| 15:31 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Understood |
| 15:32 |
Lia (tokyorii) |
Is the meeting over deans? There is a flower at Oxbridge I must go find :D |
| 15:32 |
Samm Florian |
Good luck, Lia! |
| 15:32 |
Caladon Rae'thiel (saeldurrae) |

RainyDayRecess |
Thank you Deans |
| 15:33 |
Sandie Harbour |
thank-you Deans |
| 15:33 |
Samm Florian |
Though I was just thinkin' this afternoon that this might be considered fair game. |
| 15:33 |
Phrynne |
I would say no, it isn't. |
| 15:33 |
Phrynne |
just as I would say that the dressing rooms aren't, either. |
