Hi Ember. GTSY |
| 14:37 |
Ember (emberell) |
Hey Word. Nice to see you, too! |
| 14:37 |
Ember (emberell) |
Happy birthday, by the by ❤ |
| 14:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
ty (grins), says the scriptosaurus |
| 14:38 |
Ember (emberell) |
Did you see Marion's email? |
| 14:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Just got back from Columbus OH last night |
| 14:38 |
Ember (emberell) |
Oh! Welcome back, hey! |
| 14:39 |
Ember (emberell) |
Take some time to settle in to home again soon. It's good to have you back |
| 14:40 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I did, I need to send out a reply, but I'm too out of it today (every major muscle is sore from lugging a pack back and forth all week, and a even heavier pack while traveling yesterday. |
| 14:40 |
Ember (emberell) |
Yes, for sure |
| 14:40 |
Ember (emberell) |
Focus on RL and recovering from travel |
| 14:41 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I capture statistics similar to what Marion was doing in what I have on the webpage. |
| 14:42 |
|
Ember (emberell) nods |
| 14:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
But both underscore there isn't much of a stream of newbies |
| 14:43 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I noticed while away that Oxbridge isn't listed under the communities on the VWEC website. I'll talk with Val about fixing that |
| 14:44 |
|
Ember (emberell) nods |
| 14:44 |
Ember (emberell) |
I can confirm from my time in the plaza - newbies are few and far between |
| 14:44 |
Ember (emberell) |
We most often deal with oldbies wanting to learn |
| 14:44 |
Ember (emberell) |
We still get a steady stream of that crowd, though |
| 14:44 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Right. That shows up in the statistics |
| 14:44 |
|
Ember (emberell) nods |
| 14:44 |
Ember (emberell) |
Your statistics show that, I'm glad they do |
| 14:45 |
Ember (emberell) |
it's a better picture of our 'real' learning traffic |
| 14:46 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
As does the age histogram on the wall behind us |
| 14:48 |
Ember (emberell) |
Welcome, LJ! |

What do you have for us this week, Ember? |
| 15:02 |
Ember (emberell) |
This week I've mostly been focused on campus work, changing out a few things for the summer months, and sorting the new finds that Mr. Serapis has so kindly found for our groundskeeper |
| 15:03 |
Ember (emberell) |
I have my infocard project on the back-burner for now, as RL has been a bit more than busy of late, though I hope to geet back to updating those soon -for staff and guessts both. |
| 15:03 |
Ember (emberell) |
As always, Oxbridge is looking for new tutors, or other folk who are interested in helping out. If you want to get involved, pelase feel free to reach out to me, or any of the other staff here, and we can get you involved! |
| 15:03 |
Ember (emberell) |
That's it from me this week |
| 15:04 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Ty Ember. Parts of that are never ending. |
| 15:04 |
Ember (emberell) |
Yes, SL is an ever changing creature. |
| 15:04 |
Ember (emberell) |
So much to see, so much to do. |
| 15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Makes me think of a T-Shirt with "Stop Continental Drift" with a picture of Gondwanaland with a tack nailed through it. |
| 15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea, what announcements have ye for us? |
| 15:06 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Our next COU fundraiser dance should be next Sunday. I will be contacting DI Sasha this week on theme and place |
| 15:06 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
, |
| 15:06 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'll be working open to close every day this week by myself. so i may not be in sl much |
| 15:07 |
Ember (emberell) |
If you'd like any help managing things in SL this week just wave, Andrea |
| 15:07 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

Ember (emberell) nods |

| 15:08 |
Strandwind |
Thank you Ember and Andrea for your work. |
| 15:08 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
after this week. i am going to look at what we are doing and what it is brining in. And ther emay be some changes to what we are doing now. |
| 15:08 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Caledonian nights is prepping to have others host the events on some nights |
| 15:09 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
and we may start doing the same with some of our COU events. our G-rating will still apply of course |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Feel free to IM or conference IM me |
| 15:09 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I will |
| 15:09 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I hope to transfer a buch of items for sale to Mint this or nect week and set them for sale somewhere. the money will go to the COU |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
mostly sholderpets |
| 15:10 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And off of Oxbridge proper, you can use the moderate rating. Those at Oxbridge because off the G-Rating can't come to moderate sims in any case. |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
That is all for now. |
| 15:10 |
Ember (emberell) |
When you do so, could you let me know? I can put it in a notecard for folks interested in supporting Oxbridge and include it in the FK |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
well it is possible we can have some of the dances here in the COU |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
or other G-rated regions |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I did not realize that we have a issue with that |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
or possibly setup a relay remote |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
for those with a G-rating only |
| 15:12 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Only affects 16 and 17 year olds, that can go to a G-rated sim but not a M-Rated sim. |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
It is something for discussion then |
| 15:12 |
Ember (emberell) |
We may be able to add them in to the cafe by the train station, but we can find a spot on campus for them if not |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
ok, back to you Wordsmith |
| 15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
ohoh |

Nice to have her in a Caledon venue. |
| 15:14 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
yes it is |
| 15:14 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
just saw her at Wootstock |
| 15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
nods |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
back to you Wordsmith |
| 15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Not much from me today, since I've been away at a conference and just got back home last night. |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
ah, are your arms tired |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I did come in and pick up our SL20B build last Tuesday. Need to sort a few things out for filing in a large enough sandbox, but nothing is lost. |
| 15:17 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
nods |
| 15:17 |
Ember (emberell) |
It was quite a lovely build |
| 15:17 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I rezzed mine in the village |
| 15:17 |
lovejoy2199 |
Yes, very nice |
| 15:17 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
it will be there another few days |
| 15:17 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
perhaps you would like to rezz yours there next |
| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Ember pointed out to me that the Donation coins arent' showing totals right now. That has to do with me shutting off a Google apps-engine project that had ceased to function correctly. I'll be working to fix that. |
| 15:18 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
ty I saw that, but keep forgetting about it |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The coins still process donations, they just can't get a number of total donations for the month right now. |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've got some catching up to do on transcripts, timeline plots, and statistics, but nothing extreme. |
| 15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And Dean Emeritus Marion Questi has retired from sending out reports for first-day and first-week avatar counts. I do have something quite similar in the statistical summaries on our website. |
| 15:23 |
Ember (emberell) |
They will be missed, quiet as they were. |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Nods, and they were useful to compare with what I collect for Oxbridge visitors |
| 15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And that's it from me. Open to general questions, comments, and announcements. |
| 15:24 |
Ember (emberell) |
And, lacking those, puns are welcome :-) |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Elfbiter is still running a writers' workshop at 11am SLT on Thursdays |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hearing nothing new brought up...... |
| 15:27 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
If you are in the caledonian nights group. Keep your eyes open for notices this week. i may be asking the active members questions about what may be the future of the nights group. |
| 15:27 |
Strandwind |
Are there any News about "Advanced Building" with Samm Flories? |
| 15:27 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
I still post notices to ten groups :-) |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'll ping her Standwind. |
| 15:28 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
do you need your own group mr eb? i can help you with that |
| 15:28 |
Strandwind |
Thank you Wordsmith! |
| 15:28 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
No, actually. |
| 15:28 |
Ember (emberell) |
a group would make it eleven groups he needed to post to |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Samm hasn't sent me anything new, but new college terms start in August |
| 15:29 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
I actually post to a group I used when I was hosting in the Book Island... |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And I need to pulse our scripting teachers also. |
| 15:29 |
Ember (emberell) |
In the interim, when I haven't any students I sometimes offer workshopping/building advice on more advanced topics you'd be welcome to attend |
| 15:30 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Come to listen to Ember's wisdom... |
| 15:30 |
Ember (emberell) |
I'm not as adept in box-fu as Samm, though :-) |
| 15:31 |
Strandwind |
I will try, Ember. - Thank you. - It's just that I am not a beginner in building... |
| 15:31 |
Ember (emberell) |
Yes, I understand |
| 15:31 |
Ember (emberell) |
Sometimes you want to discuss the more advanced topics and prim twistings |
| 15:31 |
|
Strandwind nods. |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
anything in particular you are interested in Strandwind? |
| 15:32 |
Strandwind |
Thank you, Wordsmith and Ember, but at the moment I don't know what I need. It's just seeing what I need. |
| 15:32 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Show compassion to the prims..... |
| 15:33 |
Strandwind |
I don't know what I am missing, but I always learn more. |
| 15:33 |
Harperlass |
and the meshes? |
| 15:33 |
Ember (emberell) |
Don't make a mess of mesh |
| 15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I used to teach "Making a Mesh". |
| 15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Might again |
| 15:35 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And, if you run into particular questions you and IM Ember or myself. |
| 15:35 |
Ember (emberell) |
Always |
| 15:36 |
Ember (emberell) |
I'm always happy to answer when I'm able |
| 15:36 |
Ember (emberell) |
Prim problems can be fun to tackle :-) |
| 15:36 |
Strandwind |
Thank you Wordsmith and Ember, I will ask you. |
| 15:36 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Any other topics? |
| 15:37 |
Strandwind |
Nope, but thank you! |
| 15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Of course :) |
| 15:37 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Nikki (nikkivorsoisson) gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:37 |
Ember (emberell) |
Thank you, Nikki, for your donation! ❤ |
| 15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
ty Nikki, much appreciated |
| 15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hearing nothing else brought forward...... |
| 15:38 |
Ember (emberell) |
Oh, I have one small thing |
| 15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(grins) Ember? |
| 15:39 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
It wasn;t me, I didn;t do it. no idea how tht prim got there |
| 15:39 |
Ember (emberell) |
LL announced just recently that they'll be adding a bit to what a region can do with EMs - both expanding the number of EMs that can concurrently be allowed, as well as adding to the ban list total numbers |
| 15:40 |
Ember (emberell) |
It's a small, but handy change - EM numbers going up to 20 from 15, and ban list going up to 750, from what I understand |
| 15:40 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
pulls out her bann hammer from sub space and give sit a quick polish |
| 15:40 |
Ember (emberell) |
rats, here I was trying to get the link to that |
| 15:41 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) polishes his ejection boots |
| 15:41 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
True, but many bans are temporary. As in comply or forget us. |
| 15:41 |
Nikki (nikkivorsoisson) |
Duh... What is an EM? |
| 15:41 |
Vanessa Hamer |
Estate Manager |
| 15:41 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Estate Mangager |
| 15:41 |
Ember (emberell) |
Estate Manager - someone who can manage the ins and outs of an estate, including parcels, ban lists, access, etc. |
| 15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Well, not always parcels |
| 15:42 |
|
Strandwind thanks Nikki for asking, because she did not knew what EM means. |
| 15:42 |
Ember (emberell) |
yes, it depends on the estate |
| 15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
EM powers and parcel powers are separate |
| 15:42 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'm sorry every paws. I have a gig that was moved up a hour from the usual time. I gotta get moving.Be well alls |
| 15:42 |
Ember (emberell) |
take care andrea! |
| 15:42 |
Strandwind |
Be well Andrea! |
| 15:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It depends on whether the parcel is group deeded and whether the EM is a member of the group with a role that gives land management powers |
| 15:43 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
tc Andrea |
| 15:43 |
Harperlass |
take care Andrea! |
| 15:43 |
Ember (emberell) |
It's quite possible to get lost in the permutations you can make of conflicting roles, ahah. |
| 15:43 |
Ember (emberell) |
but that's it from me |
| 15:44 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The issue of parcel level powers was an issue with the Oxbridge library parcel for some years. It's sorted out now. |
| 15:44 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Other topics? |
| 15:45 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hearing nada.... |
| 15:45 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
We are adjourned. |
| 15:45 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you all for coming and participating. |
| 15:45 |
