Ember (emberell) |
Hello, friends! I've been catching up on my backlog and getting campus a bit springier. Besides that, I don't have much news. |
| 15:05 |
Ember (emberell) |
As usual, Oxbridge is always looking for people to get involved and help - whether as tutors, or in other ways. If you or anyone you know is interested, do always feel free to reach out to me, or any of the other staff here for how to get involved at Oxbridge. |
| 15:05 |
Ember (emberell) |
We can always use more hands/paws/fins/etc :-) |
| 15:05 |
Ember (emberell) |
That's all from me |
| 15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you, Ember. |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oxbridge remains in excellent financial shape. Over the last two weeks, our surplus decreased by 1804 $L, which is expected during Relay for Life Season, and is among the reasons Andrea has and does work hard to do our fundraising. |

Another reason is in Caledon itself. Caledon is losing three sims plus a homestead, which will break the trains, airships (CATS) and the Caledon Quest, at least for the immediate future. |
| 15:11 |
lovejoy2199 |
Not the trains again? |
| 15:12 |
Gronk Seriman |
Oh, Geez! |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Dream will be moving into Kintyre's spot. so it has to be in place before the trans can be re routed |
| 15:12 |
Gronk Seriman |
That's a loss!! |
| 15:12 |
Subaru Arun |
Which sims are going? |
| 15:12 |
Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) |
Who usually handles the trains and airships? |
| 15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
To my knowledge, Kintyre will be gone, so now's the time to ride the trains and CATs |
| 15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Marion Questi maintains the Caledon Quest for Oxbridge. The difficulty comes in finding interesting waypoints within Caledon. |
| 15:16 |
Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) |
And they become fewer |
| 15:16 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
I could be talked into doing some scouting for waypoints. Should I email Questi? |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I talked with Marion last night and promised to help with finding places of interest, on or very near commonwealth land, in general. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes, Liska, they keep getting fewer. |
| 15:17 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
kk, i'll send you any suggestions I come up with. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
wb Felecia |
| 15:17 |
Ember (emberell) |
When you have the waypoints set, let me know - I'm happy to redo the clues |
| 15:17 |
Felícia Ferraz (jucastt) |
oh hello |
| 15:17 |
Felícia Ferraz (jucastt) |
bisous Words |
| 15:18 |
Tora the Explorer (toraona.thane) |
wb hon! |
| 15:18 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Lack of tenants |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
That will be helpful, Ember. Marion mentioned both finding waypoints and writing new clues in last night's discussion |
| 15:19 |
|
Ember (emberell) nods |
| 15:19 |
Ember (emberell) |
I've taken to keeping them cleaned up for tutors and available as needed (on a one by one basis) |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Des is planning to move another homestead into the current location of Kintyre, btw |
| 15:20 |
Felícia Ferraz (jucastt) |
well, i have to get going |
| 15:20 |
Felícia Ferraz (jucastt) |
good night to all |
| 15:20 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
Dream is very pretty, but I did love Kintyre! |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The other sims going are Kitti, Tanglewood, and Cay. Cay, as of last night, was just water. |
| 15:20 |
Felícia Ferraz (jucastt) |
and have a good week everyone |

where a fine time is had by all! |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, Linden Lab has implemented an Estate Management control that allows one to not allow known bots into a sim. |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
With all that said, open for general announcements and questions. |
| 15:24 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |

SL20B! Will we have an exhibit? Will Caledon? |
| 15:25 |

i must swim away to another commitment. thanks lovely peeps! and thanks, Word, for your all species inclusive environment! X-D |

Tora the Explorer (toraona.thane) |
waves and poofs!! |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I wold like to do one for Oxbridge. I don't know about Caledon at large. The theme is (opens the envelope): "Our fantastic future". |
| 15:26 |
Gronk Seriman |
I wonder who maintains the displays and maps in the Hall of Caledon. |
| 15:26 |
lovejoy2199 |
Sounds right for VWEC |
| 15:27 |
Phrynne |
Carl was maintaining that before his break. |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It does, Lovejoy |
| 15:27 |
Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) |
Tonight's movie in the Goblin Cave is "Tank", 1984, with James Garner |
| 15:27 |
lovejoy2199 |
I should have asked if VWEC is going to have one. That way we could tie into it. |
| 15:28 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
Did it 'tank' at the box office? |
| 15:28 |
Liska da'Lantros (liskadalantros) |
I dunno, haven't seen it |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Oh, this Thursday at 5pm will be another Sci-Fi short-story reading. This month, partly due to RL craziness, Heinleins's "The year of the jackpot". |
| 15:28 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
just punning around, Liska ;^) |
| 15:28 |
Gronk Seriman |
Tanks seems to be a theme tonight. |
| 15:29 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
at VWEC? |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I think Val wants to start at VWEC and then jump to the meeting center at Southend |
| 15:29 |
lovejoy2199 |
No. If VWEC has one, it could also redirect to ours. |
| 15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(that's for the sci-fi story) |
| 15:30 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
Keep me posted, please, Word. I'll put it on the calendars |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
5pm this next Thursday, and I'll share the notecard with you, Larky |
| 15:31 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
how long is the event word? |
| 15:31 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
thanks |
| 15:32 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
One hour, Andrea |
| 15:32 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
i'll move tv night back a little bit |
| 15:32 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
give time for folks to finish there |
| 15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Almost always , the second Thursday of the month, unless Val or myself have a conflict. |
| 15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And I'm still pondering how to map Oxbridge to "Our Fantastic Future" (grumbles about ambiguous themes) |
| 15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else? |
| 15:34 |
Ember (emberell) |
Steam-powered is the future :-) |
| 15:34 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
i'm doing the 3030 build from Burning Man |
| 15:35 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
maybe a futuristic look at steam punk |
| 15:35 |
Ember (emberell) |
CAvorite might be involved |
| 15:35 |
Ember (emberell) |
Everything floats in the future |
| 15:35 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

Oxbridge offers a shining future to new residents of SL. |
