The Tower of Power?

Currently working on the upper tower part of the Towers of Nowhereville.

Had to change it from this original photo because someone complained that their view was obstructed.

CSI : Nonsense

I am currently in the process of stealing the latest episode of CSI:NY (since it has yet to air in the UK as far as i can tell). I just want to see what all this fuss is about….Like those sims, you know the 4 times 103 = 400-something to accommodate all these newbies who must be jumping up and down like a jack russell terrier just to play around in a virtual world…

Maybe it’s just the fact that i am not truly a CSI fan which is why I’m not too excited but more worried about the lag…

Archipelago Speedway Update #1

What is the Archipelago(Fruit Cup as well) Speedway. It is a project first mentioned by Razzap Snookums which i am currently building and carrying out because, Razzap is busy building a city with shadows, Crap is building some temple for podcasting and other people are either pissed off at people in the locations and do not want to help.

So it looks like its up to me to have the fun round here and sort this crap out.

So for the first update -

1. I am currently on Minitrack one which is the BlaksleeWorld Speedway track.
2. The road for BlaksleeWorld has been made now
3. Barriers are still in construction but are taking shape
4. I have bought a Lap Timer/Counter and all that fun stuff for L$5000 from the creator at Domino Designs (his name just this second has gone blank to me, i’ll probably remember soon)
5. The Jack Pitt’s Stop paving is done, I need to now make the areas for the cars to sleep in. The plan is also to have a VIP room for racers only above the Pitt Stop.

That pretty much covers it for the first update of the Archipelago / Fruit Cup Speedway.

Edit - I am aiming to get the track done for this Sunday, so we can perhaps have a BETA test of the track. If not then hopefully we can test on Tuesday, nothing ever happens then.

My Teen Grid Theory…

I have speculated about this idea before in IM’s and general conversation and after hearing about the Adult Verification scheme mentioned once again at SLCC I had the theory pop into my head.

I consider Mature content to be accessible to people who are 16 years old or more. Where as content that is Adult to be 18 years old or more. Therefore PG which does stand for Parental Guidance to be all content that can be deemed appropriate to anybody under 18 as long as a parent approves of it.

How does this relate to teens coming onto the grid? Well as we all know the main grid has currently got two types of sims. Mature and PG. PG seems to be maintained as a clean area where no swearing / sex / mature and adult acts happen. But in a world that is mature in nature and requires the user to be older than 18 (although we all know that can be easily bypassed) seems to be a little farfetched to me.

New Bridge Design…

Yesterday i decided to revamp one of the bridges ready for SL Woodstock and in order to do that I had to get rid of the current bridge design..

Note - This event was not intended to cause offense to the Minneapolis bridge incident.

What about a Podcast Union?

Earlier today i saw a blog entry on SLBuzz from Banana Stein which seemed to cause a bit of an uproar in the community about events. So i got to thinking after reading the comments. Thats when i came up with the idea for a Podcast union. Sort of like how unions in Real Life work. This union would tackle issues within the community like griefers or event clashes and how to solve the issues to provide the best for the community. However one of the problems i have with the sims right now is that they are all spread around and i might be in one sim and blissfully unaware of what could be in another sim at the time. If i could easily fly to those sims without much worry (apart from getting your prim hair on your genitals)…

So I came up with this concept map of what I think should happen and how the sims should be located to each other based on events and styles.

Some Housekeeping to do…

Well lets see what have i been doing this week. Well you could say that i have not done too much this week or have done a lot depending on your definition. So i want to take this time to talk about some stuff that is coming up and what’s been happening.

Take it or Leave it
Just in case you haven’t read the blog “New World Notes” i was recently mentioned in the blog and was very pleased at what was said. I am still sort of modest about my hosting skills but people keep saying that i’m great so im inclined to believe them . Also i am pleased to announce that I will be hosting Take it or Leave it on Tuesdays at Nowhereville at an earlier time of 1PM SLT. This event is really for the Europeans because they never get a L$2,500 game on at that time which is kind of upsetting so I offered to do it. Also I will be hosting at the Audiocourses “ACHUB Spring Festival” on Sunday at 1PM SLT. That will also be L$2,500 top prize so fans of my work have a two for one deal as I will be heading over to Nowhereville pretty much straight after the event.

New Blog Theme
I decided that Kubrick was looking a little old for me now and so i switched to another theme and I am currently in the midst of redesigning a lot of the work to make it more eye-appealing including easier ways to subscribe to the blog.

RL : Eazy Computer Help
Finally, I have teamed up with Louis Ringgold in a blog called Eazy Computer Help. Sure this isn’t Second Life at all but i promised him that I would plug it at places so I thought that I would start here. It is really good if you want some tips although its more aimed at computing novices
