Thus I, Milen, have beseeched the heavens so that I may come to you with divine insight into the problems that will beset you in the near future and *must* be remedied before it is Too Late! (The actual divination procedure I used is very technical and requires at least three consecutive PhDs in the mystical arts to understand fully, but it involved drawing lots, Ouija boards, astrological forecasts, a deck of ESP cards, dartboards, a bowl of Campbells' brand Alphabet Soup, a stale fortune cookie a friend of mine didn't finish a few days ago and a statistical plot of the career of Tom Arnold. Trust me; you don't want to know.) And so the Wisdom of the Ages has come down, and our source of most dire peril is: The gesture. (I think it's F7.) Yes, I know what you're thinking. "Milen's been off chewin' locoweed again." And my answer to that is, well, yes, just a little. But it does stand to reason. Take a look at its most common uses: "I don't know. " "I don't care. " "I care but don't know. " "I know but don't care. " "I neither know nor do I care. " "I don't know about caring. " "I don't care about knowing. " "I don't know about not caring. " "I don't care about not knowing. " "I don't know about knowing. " "I don't care about caring. " "I GOT A TURF! YAAAYYY!! " (seen when someone pressed the wrong key) and "" (Most often used right before the phrase "Fujitsu WorldsAway has detected a system error.") So, as we can clearly see, at the very least is responsible for Weird Milen Editorials. But, more seriously, there is sometimes confusion between the most common meaning for , "I don't know," and the second most common meaning, "I don't care." Think about the possible confusion if someone asked you something important that you didn't know the answer to, but got your reply misinterpreted. Most people in WA use gestures pretty indiscriminately; most of them are just plain *obvious* (it's difficult to mistake a or a ) but shrugs just aren't obvious except through context. This is because shrugs in real-life are more subtle than the other gestures represented in WA, and are sometimes used to communicate finer shades of meaning. There's the "I don't know" shrug, the "I don't care" shrug, the "What did you say?" shrug, and the "I don't get it" shrug. In WA we only have one, the catch-all, all-on-one-rug shrug. My point? Simply, don't abandon the , but don't use it unless you're sure of it's implied meaning. If you wish to reply to this editorial, send your response to TGEGI,ESIG. What, you didn't catch that? LATE BREAKING ADDITION: It has come to my attention that Indigo was taken into the hospital Tuesday night. While she wasn't in a coma, as was reported at Worlds of Fortune that night, and while she appears to be stable at the moment, the condition was still quite serious. Indigo possibly has more friends than any other single person in WorldsAway, and I am extremely proud to be counted one of those. The way the math of it works out, even if there's a tenth of a percent of a chance that Indigo could be taken from us forever, that is reason for very great concern indeed; she is quite literally the sweetest person I have ever met, a feeling some who were at the Gathering have no doubt caught as well. I speak for myself and I suspect most of Phantasus when I wish her a speedy and painless recovery. Thanks for everything, Indi... you're the best. * Milen --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Letter to the Editor --------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Clarion Editors, On Friday when Turfs opened (3am to us poor Europeans), the person who I was supposed to be moving in with was still asleep (Chief PI Cyber Penguin), so that posed a problem. I met a duck who was using the same vendo as me (Turf Sprays). I went to buy something and he moved it on, and I bought the wrong one! At first I was irate, but then I got to know him and found out he was a great person. I then went to the Opening and waited for 1/2 hour. By that time we had decided to move in together. After a while, I was added to the lease and moved in. Unga-Bunga (the duck) went out of his way to help me. I didn't have a chest to put my stuff in, so he gave me *A RARE HEART CHEST* worth 2,000 tokens plus to contain my things. He even said I could try on and use his 3 rare rose heads, worth over 4,000 tokens each. We decorated the Turf together and had a great time. This proves that there is a shred of decency left through all this crime! He is a prime example of just how generous and trustful a person can be. A true friend. Chief PI Banana Lord EDITOR'S NOTE: It sounds like Unga-Bunga is a quality individual. We are grateful to you for letting us know of his selflessness. Thanks! * Millennium Century, of the Hidden Glade -------------------------------------------------------------------- // SPECIAL REPORT: Awakened Avatars Gather in Pennsylvania by Acolyte Rosaleah -------------------------------------------------------------------- With the promise of fun, frolic, games and prizes, over 50 Kymerians awakened last weekend to find themselves brought together from around the country ... and beyond ... to gather at the Harrisburg Holiday Inn in Pennsylvania. The VC-in-3D opened early Friday evening and rocked almost into the wee hours even as the new Apartment Manager at the turfs building opened up for business. Would being awake keep us away from this momentous occasion in our Homeland? No, indeed! Sunray Ann, having brought her magic sleepdust, in the form of a desktop PC, logged on to let the assembled Kymerian multitude watch the Grand Opening and cheer on the deghosting avatars in the Manager's Office. Saturday morning after breakfast and registration -- at which everyone got an allotment of spiders, tokens, and perhaps a pair of golden handcuffs -- Sunray Oliver took on MC duties as we all did what Kymerians everywhere do: we played KYMER!, hosted by SunRay Ann. Wert P Gumby, who was later to show us a demo of his latest fuzzie-racing game, Cyberdowns, didn't win at KYMER, but six other avatars did: ** KYMER! BINGO WINNERS!! ** Game 1 - Fawn won a Smiley head Game 2 - SunRay Jyoti won an appointment book Game 3 - SunRay Kethrey won a large pet spider Game 4 - Duckolyte Davey Joe won an atlas on a CD-rom Game 5 - Mrs. Wert won a Frog head Game 6 - Duckolyte Askani (a real redhead) won a mousepad and screensaver combo Then it was off to lunch! Piemur and the Duckolytes present were happy to see that froglegs and roasted duck weren't on the menu at the local Pizza Hut, where Oracle Uni was our pizza ordering hostess. Extra special thanks go to Sabertooth, for using up his stash of tokens to pay for the delicious fare! More talk! Presentations by Codemaster John D and by Wert P Gumby! And another game, this one hosted by Sunray Render! ** WORLDS OF FORTUNE WINNERS!! ** Game 1 - Shamrock won a smiley-face necklace Game 2 - Duckolyte Davey Joe won a skull head Game 3 - Fawn won a set of glow-in-the-dark lunar pencils Game 4 - Grace Sunshine won a dreamcatcher Game 5 - Sunray Kethrey won a 'compu-chip' key chain After a panel discussion about crime, ethics, and a discussion of community growth, it was off to cocktail hour, the banquet (at which Duckolyte Longwalk appeared in appropriately- colored shirt and pants, duck feet, and a blue bow tie), and more prizes! ** WHO LOOKS MOST LIKE THEIR AVATAR? ** 1st Place, male: Duckolyte Brains (Brains: 'I look like a duck??' avatars: 'Yes, you exude the Duckolyte spirit!') 2nd Place, male: a tie between VIQ and Vini Vidi Vici 1st Place, female: Acolyte Indigo 2nd Place, female: Duckolyte Askani (did we mention she's a real redhead?) ** WHO TRAVELED THE FURTHEST TO BE WITH US? ** Gorthaur the Cruel, who came to the Gathering all the way from England, won a world atlas on CD-rom to help him find not only his way back home but his way to future Avatar Gatherings! And, of course, it wouldn't be an event without a few door prizes: ** DOOR PRIZE WINNERS!! ** Sunray Love won Championship Chess Passion won a CD-rom titled The Exotic Garden Fawn won a voodoo 'stress' doll Ael the Tigress won a Duckolyte windup doll Hunter Brown, SysOp, won a pair of golden handcuffs Acolyte Rosaleah won an appointment book Codemaster John D won a large pair of golden handcuffs Fleke won a week-at-a-glance calendar book Pal Joey won a Sunray banner Dessert included a birthday cake in honor of Sunray Mula's 14th birthday, who received a 'heart chest' of chocolate while the assembled Kymerians sang happy birthday. The highlight of the evening was the raffle drawing for the beautiful Oracle Bear provided by White Rose, who had sewn the Bear's green robes and provided him with a proper Oracle Book and Staff. Everyone held their breath as White Knight shook the canister full of raffle tickets, Oracle Uni reached in, and drew out the name of * * * A M A N D A * * * The whole room cheered as VIQ held his grinning daughter high! Was the bear bigger than Amanda? Yes, the bear was bigger than Amanda! But, oh so huggable (both Amanda and the bear)! And oh so joyous (the bear, Amanda, and the entire roomful of Kymer citizens)! The partying went on past midnight Saturday night ... but did we have enough of gaming? Noooooo way! ** SUNDAY'S KYMER TRIVIA WINNERS!! ** Piemur won a Frisbee Acolyte Rosaleah won a Mario Bros. plunger (to help improve her rather poor gaming skills, no doubt) Biker Steve won the last of the bugs And then it was time for pictures as the resident paparazzi assembled ... whole crowd ... Duckolytes ... Sunrays ... acolytes ... for a snapshot-fest. Followed by tons and tons of {{{{huuuuuugggss}}}} and as we said our goodbyes ... till next time in Phantasus ... ... and if you missed this one but would like to make the next Gathering, watch the message boards for a promised Gathering West in San Francisco in September ... -------------------------------------------------------------------- // Menolly's Puzzle Corner by Menolly -------------------------------------------------------------------- Answer to last week's problem. This was one for the geniuses! I hope somebody managed to solve it. There are actually several possible answers. The smallest number is 64. However, 104,144,184 etc.also work. I'm not going to explain how to work it out, as it involves algebra!!! This weeks puzzle should be a bit easier. It's a logic puzzle so making a grid should help you. "Cupboard Love" A wily old alley-cat lives on an estate where he has convinced 5 sets of residents that he is "their" cat. Each has a different name for him and each feeds him every day. From the clues given below, can you say: 1) Whose garden he visited at what time yesterday? 2) What was he fed there? 3) What name is he known by at that address? Clues: 1) Breakfast scraps are always on offer outside one resident's back door at 7.30 am. 2) The Kindley twins feed "their" cat at 5pm. when they get home from school. They did not provide yesterday's saucer of warm milk. 3) "Scruff" was fed on cat biscuits yesterday at the next port of call after Miss Allhart's house, which he did not visit at 12 noon. 4) It is Mr. Goodcheer who refers to our feline friend as "Top Cat" 5) It was under the name of "Sweep" that the 9.0am meal was eaten. 6) The cold meat on yesterday's menu was provided by Mr. Fildish, who does not call our hero "Tommy". Residents' names: Times: Food: Miss Allhart 7.30am Breakfast scraps Mr. Fildish 9.00am Cat biscuits Mr. Goodcheer 12 noon Cold meat Kindley Twins 5.00pm Pet food Mrs. Lavish 9.30pm Warm milk Cat's Name: Catkins Scruff Sweep Tommy Top Cat Answer next week. --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Turfs and Thievery by Milen of the Hidden Glade --------------------------------------------------------------------- Aaaa... it seems that the thieves have been working overtime to make life miserable for those in Phantasus who just wish to be left alone. (It makes one wonder if, in fact, these people have what is referred to by some as "a life.") However, the fact is, turf owners have been given the tools to prevent this. Unlike the real- world, a properly defended turf is nigh-theftproof. Here are some ideas for making your turf secure.... - NAMES. Contrary to what some believe, it has been discovered that turf names are *NOT* hackproof. Merely having a secret turf name does not make your turf secure. Turf names are *not* a password. It still is a sensible precaution to name your turf something *other* than the default, if just to prevent no-brainer thefts. - PERMISSIONS. There are two "levels" of security in a turf, per-turf and per-locale. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE! If you lock guests out of your turf NO ONE can get in who's not an owner, but guests who are already in have free reign. If you lock guests out of a locale then it's like a wall in the middle of your turf that no one except an owner (or someone already in the room when you set the permission) can pass. Turf owners are lockout-proof on their property. By the way, default permissions are to ALLOW guests, so the very first thing you should do as a new turf owner is TURN GUESTS OFF. Also note that setting the entry locale of your turf to Guests Off is almost as effective as disallowing them in the whole turf. - NUMBERS OF AVATARS vs. NUMBERS OF GHOSTS. In addition to straight-forward lockouts, you can also control the number of avatars and/or ghosts in each locale of your turf. A room set for zero avatars forces all non-owners to ghost upon entry, in effect creating a "sealed", look-but-don't-touch zone. A common sense approach is to set the back room of your turf for No Guests, No Avatars and No Ghosts and never change them. That gives you a safe zone in which to keep valuables. - WHO'S IN HERE. Something that's fun that I'm surprised more people haven't picked up on. If you click on yourself and get a "Who's in Here" (check the Status menu) while in a turf that you own, you not only get the names of the avatars in the room BUT OF THE GHOSTS AS WELL! Try it! - GUESTS. All this having been said it should also be said that each and every measure designed to keep out thieves keeps out guests as well. One way to handle guests is an "airlock" strategy: 1. Set the second room of your turf to No Guests and the first to zero avatars. 2. Tell your guests to come on up. 3. After they are all ghosts in the room set the locale for No Guests and get a Who's In Here. 4. Eject anyone who's not expected to be there. 5. Go to the next room and Allow Guests, then go back and tell them to come on in. 6. Instead of having them exit via door, eject them (with their permission of course) or see if they'll log out. 7. Rearm the airlock after everyone's left; Disallow Guests in the second room and (if you wish) Allow them in the first. Don't set the number of avatars in the first room to more than zero. This is just one security plan. If you have ideas for your own, feel free to send them to us and we'll include the best in an upcoming issue of the Clarion. - EMERGENCIES. If you suspect that someone managed to somehow slip through your defenses then EJECT ALL GUESTS! This method removes everyone who's not an owner. If there were other guests in the turf ESP them and apologize, but turf security is possibly one of the few times when this rudeness is acceptable. If someone has slipped through and already picked up an item there is nothing you can do to force him to put it back. - FIREPLACE AND MANTLE. The fireplace and mantle are not safes. Anyone present in the room as an avatar can remove items from them. They are for display only. - WATCH YOUR CO-OWNERS. Don't go halfsies (or thirdsies or fourthsies, etc.) with anyone you don't know. No security measures at all will work against someone else on the lease except changing the name, which doesn't always work so well. And, if you have a questionable personality on your lease nothing stops *him* from changing the name on *you*. I'm not so sure how difficult it is to get a co-owner thrown off a lease, if it's possible at all, but you can be sure that if there's a way, then your co-owners can do it to you as well. Forewarned is forearmed. - EJECT GUESTS ON EXIT. This is just a common sense precaution. It should be on whenever you have no guests. Even if you have guests it may be a good idea, though that is, of course, up to you to decide. "Exit" means ANY exit, including crashes. (Though a word of warning; some crashes cause the system to think that you are still in-world for a few minutes. Likely guests won't be ejected until the system cleans up and removes you from the world. So this isn't foolproof....) - ABSOLUTE SECURITY. If everyone else on the lease is completely trustworthy and follows safety procedures then you have no reason to fear for your turf while it is unoccupied. Before any guest can enter a turf an owner must go before. Other points related to turfs: - TOKENS. Soon before turfs were introduced I cleaned out my ATM account. I wasn't in-world for much in the days up until I got my turf. Then I went in and went through my chests. For hours. I spent most of Sunday going through my stuff. When I checked my ATM account I found it had 540 tokens, enough to account for at least nine hours of use. I consider this proof that, indeed, you do earn tokens while in a turf. - QUICK EXIT. Want to get out of a turf quick? Don't beg the poor owner for an ejection! Just log out! When next you return to the Dreamscape you will find yourself outside of the first Elevator. This does not work for turfs you are on the lease of. - PRIMARY HOMES. As of yet no method has been discovered of defining a turf other than one you created *yourself* as your Primary Home. Having a Primary Home is beneficial because you can merely select "Home" from the Elevator menu to go there, saving you the trouble of typing in the name. Because only the person who first rented a turf can have it as their primary residence, that means no turf can have more than one Primary Occupant. Also, of course, if you buy two turfs and choose to make them both your primary home the second one supersedes the first. * Millennium Century of the Hidden Glade, Agent #006 --_^+^_-- GAMES AND GAMING --_^+^_-- --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Information: The Storm Watch by Christopher Storm --------------------------------------------------------------------- Heya Gamblers.

The first person to get ANY FIVE of the ten numbers called on one card wins the lottery. The prize will be the sum of all ticket sales that round, or on occasion rare items. At the end of every month a special round will be held with a high ticket price and even BIGGER winnings. Tickets for this special round will be available all month long.

We'd like to invite you to the races there every Monday at 5 PM WAT, and every Friday at 11 AM WAT. The turf will be open for guests once the host or hosts are there. The first room of the turf, the entry, is where the races will be held. For our guests convience, the second room of the turf (to the keyboard Right) is set as a changing room. Only one avatar, other then the turf owners, and NO ghosts, will be allowed in that region. So please, feel safe to rearrange your pockets if needed to allow you to store any prizes won. We hope you all will have many pleasant Ghost Races and CHAOS, Inc. games at our place. Winners of last months races are SR Mage CyberMage and Julie S. They both received some specially colored, engraved Tulip heads. We hope to see you all in May, when we will return to a regular schedule, after the CLOUD RACE SPECIAL on the 29th. See you in Dreamland. --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Information: Cloud Racer Special Coming! by Acolyte Serena --------------------------------------------------------------------- By Acolyte Serena On May 31st, at 11 AM WAT, the Ghost Races will hold another Cloud Race Special. For those who read the file GHOSTG.TXT in the forum library, Worlds Away Life Section, they will know what this means. The Cloud Race Specials will also be held at the new Ghost Racing turf, named Dreamland. For those who haven't read GHOSTG.TXT: "What is a Cloud Race Special? It is only open to all those avatars who have not won any races during the month. If you won just one race, at a Sunday, Friday or Monday race, you can not compete in these races! Only the Cloud Racers for the month can race. There will be the traditional number of races, but the limit will be held to a one win limit. If there are less then 11 avatars present at the end of the race, then after all of them have won at least one race, they all can race again for a second prize. In no case shall the racers be eligible for more then two prizes. Instead the races will end after all have two prizes." This will happen every time there is a fifth Monday or Friday in the month. Thank you all for your support, and hope to see you there. --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Report: CHAOS,Inc By Marianne G --------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION CHAOS, INC GAMERS! - Games will now be held in the turf named Dreamland. Game date, time is still the same, every Thursday at 5 PM WAT, or whenever I get there to open the turf :D Due to the constant crashes that have been encountered lately by some systems, we won't be hosting any of the races around the city during the upcoming month. So you can expect to have some down home, word and mental games to keep you alert. Now, as to the results of the game on April 25th..... As normal, it was a Chaotic game, as we introduced Alphabet Phrases to the dreamscape. It will need some fine tuning, but all new games seem to. Winning at the game were Moonlight Knight, Piano Man, SunRay Render, Grim Reeper, Aunt May, Wart, Anais, Necrolyte SKY TOWER, Mage Windancer, and Melancholy.

We have called the fumigator and we should have no problems with this week's session. Be seeing you.... <<<>>> ** <<<>>> POETRY & STORIES <<<>>> ** <<<>>> --------------------------------------------------------------------- // The Lost Avatar: Part 4 Twen, Turfs, and a Beast by Christopher Storm --------------------------------------------------------------------- The images swam around Twen, playing before him as if on a blurry screen set to slow motion. He was in a familiar place, a room filled with odd looking equipment and computers. A large mechanical device filled most of the room, and was covered with all kinds of blinking lights and unreadable gauges. A bang from behind caused him to turn around, the images blurring completely for a moment. When they refocused he was looking at a doorway as a beautiful woman crashed through it. "Twen!" she called, her voice distorted as if coming from a great distance away. "Twen, they know! They're coming, Twen! We must hurry and... NOOOOO!" There was a bright flash reflected in Twen's horrified eyes, a flash that became an all encompassing bright light. "Twen! Twen wake up! Wake up Twen! Twen!" The voice pulled him from the dream, and Twen blinked the light from his eyes. He was lying on a couch in the V-Mart, looking up into the concerned face of his unicorn friend, Kintarra. "Wha..." Twen stuttered, "what happened to me? How did I get here?" "We were at the ATM," Kintarra replied, "and Headhunter Chieftain tried to get past us. He knocked me into the fountain and attacked you. I came up out of the fountain just in time to see you on the ground, your eyes... well they were glowing with an intense light. Me and about a dozen avatars on the street could only watch for a moment before the light became to bright. It practically exploded out of you. And when it faded, Headhunter Chieftan was gone. I jumped from the fountain and ran over to you, but whatever you did it left you completely drained. You collapsed there on the spot. We brought you here." "We?" Twen coughed as he made the effort to sit up. He was still pretty weak, but he could feel his strength slowly returning. "Yes." Kintarra answered, stepping back so Twen could see that he was with a young woman. "Twen, I'd like you to meet Indigo. She's an Acolyte who was on duty at the time you... well did whatever it is you did." "Pleased to meet you Twen." Indigo said with a warm smile. "Kintarra tells me that right before the attack you also mentioned something about having seen turfs. Is that true?" "Yes... well, sort of. I have this distinct image in my mind of what they looked like. It wasn't as if I was actually inside of one, rather... well I think it was a picture or something I saw of them." "Can you tell me what the picture showed?" Indigo asked. "Sure. Lets see... there were three or four people standing inside a room. It looked sort of like an entranceway or lobby. The walls were a nice pastel color, and there was a nice statue in the center surrounded by wild orchids. Just on the far right side of the picture there was a strange door... perhaps to an elevator or something. Thats pretty much it." Indigo and Kintarra shared a worried look. "What?" Twen inquired. "What is it?" "Twen," Kintarra replied, "after I told Indi about you thinking you had seen the turfs, she arranged for an Oracle to show it to us. It had been slated to open tonight, and the Oracle said it would be no problem to give us a little advance glimpse. What you just described matches the apartment building's lobby exactly. Except for us and the Oracles, no one else has seen them." "But I remember..." Twen said with a puzzled look on his face. "waitasec, you did all this while I was unconscious? How long was I out!?!?" "Four hours," Kintarra replied. "Whatever it is that you did out there must have really drained you. Couldn't wake you up until just a minute ago." "Which brings me to my next question," Indigo stepped in, "What exactly IS it you did out there. You displayed abilities... well to be honest I've only ever seen Oracles show that kind of power before. And for that matter, WHAT did you do to Headhunter Chieftain?" Twen sat for a moment, trying to think. His expression when he replied was full of uncertainty and concern, "I don't know." ***** "AAAAAAARGH!" Headhunter Chieftain roared, wishing desperately to vent his frustration on something but finding nothing. His skeletal face contorted with anger as he floated in the vast expanse of nothingness, his eyes blazing with fury. He had been voided again. Clenching his bony fists he tried to calm the rage inside so that he might consider his situation. How had that scrawny little punk managed to send him here. Only Oracles had that kind of power. Could it have been an Oracle in disguise? Or was it something else... something new... something Headhunter had to get his hands on. "And I can help you with that," the voice rumbled from behind. Headhunter spun around easily in the nothingness that was the void to come face to face with an enormous avatar. As black as the midnight sky, muscled limbs covered with fur, and luminous green eyes, the creature was like none Headhunter Chieftan had ever seen before. At his obvious startled reaction, the dark avatar smiled a toothy grin. "You encounterrrrred the mysterrrrious one," the creature growled, "and now you wonderrr how you can gain that powerrrr forrr yourrrrself. I can help you with that." "And just how do you intend to do that," Headhunter Chieftain asked suspicously. "It looks to me like we're both stuck here in the void." "Appearances can be deceiving..." the dark voice rolled over the creature's tongue. "I assurrre you I did not come herrrrre underrr any powerrr but my own. And that is how I shall leave. You may come with me, or stay. It is yourrrr choice." Headhunter pondered his options for just a moment before replying to the deadly looking creature. Steeling his wavering voice for his reply, he spoke, "I am with you." "Goooooooood," the creature smiled, displaying his razor sharp fangs. "Let us be off then hunterrrr of heads." With that the dark avatar turned away from the Chieftan and raised a midnight hand. Five silver claws extended from the hand and the beast sliced them down in an arc in the nothingness in front of him. The claws ripped the very air apart, rending and twisting reality to reveal a shimmering gateway out of the void. On the other side a dense jungle awaited. "Who ARE you?" Headhunter Chieftain asked as he stepped through the shimmering portal to elsewhere. "A frrrrriend," the creature rumbled, "but you may simply call me..." "... the Shadowbeast." >> TO BE CONTINUED! <<<<<<<++++++>>>>>>> ADVERTISEMENTS <<<<<<<++++++>>>>>>> --------------------------------------------------------------------- //// //// WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENTS //// --------------------------------------------------------------------- // Wedding Announcement Sparhawk, SrK-CGK and Sunray Aisha --------------------------------------------------------------------- This evening, I asked SunRay Aisha, Chief Golden Knight if she would marry me and in words of one syllable, she said YES!!

I mean, you have a quick chat with someone, they say they have to go and log off. You would like to meet them again but have no way of contacting them. You don't have their UID, and just logging inworld and ESPing seems a pretty hit and miss affair. So I came up with the idea of a 'Poste Restante' service in Kymer. Wouldn't it be nice if you could leave a message at a known point for another Avatar - by Avatar name - that they could pick up the next time they came inworld? I thought so. So I thought about it some more and could see a way in which it could work, and I got some Software together to help out and tested it and its looking good. It works like this. The Poste Restante service will have Avatars on duty at a particular spot (outside the Library for instance) at predefined timeslots. These timeslots will hopefully cover most Avatars normal times in WA. Any Avatar can leave a message for another Avatar with the Duty Operator (or MAilMAster). When an Avatar enters WA all they need to do is go to the Poste Restante and inquire if there are any messages for them. The MAilMAster on duty will then give them any messages being held for them. Simple really - and I hope a really useful service. The Software takes care of receiving, storing and handing out the mail (so the Operator doesn't have to do much except be there) and as it is all handled by ESP you don't even need to be in the same location as the MAilMAster. In order to launch this new service, I need a core of Operators who are willing to take on a Timeslot (not necessarily every day, maybe once a week for say half an hour). If anybody is interested, could they please contact me. Initially the service will be free to test it out and get it going, but eventually we may charge a nominal sum - say 5Ts for each deposit or collection. This money will go towards reimbursing the operators for the time they spend being MAilMAsters. I would be interested in any views on the service, and especially would like to hear from Avatars (or Organisations) interested in being operators.

First Independent Turf Agency // deutscher Text folgt // Hi friends and visitors of Kymer, today it is a great pleasure for me to announce the foundation of a new agency in Kymer. As you surely heard, TURFS will soon be to released in Kymer. At this time, nobody knows exactly, how turfs will appear In-World, but some abilities are already published. So it will be possible to share a turf with some other avatars (up to 16 owners). And of course to share the rent as well. This agency is established to make things easier. Do you want to share a turf with somebody and don't know with whom? Do you look for a special time, being alone in a turf with a friend? Do you look for a special interest group, coming together in a turf? Do you want to cancel your lease agreement? This new agency will help you. It's not sure, how turfs will be distributed, but if you want to be on the FITA queue, email me. To be as flexible as possible for the agency, it is necessary that the price for entering the queue will be about 100T. This is, in my opinion, a really fair price which also newbies can afford. I don't want to make any big profit, so if in any reason, the FITA couldn't keep that promise you will get your money back (promised). Your email should include your avatars name, a suggestion to meet and pay, and a short description of your interests In-World, so I could make a good selection in joining shared turfs. The other possibility is, to meet me In-World. I will be present during the week at 11:00am till 1:pm and on weekend/eastern perhaps longer, but no fixed time. On the other hand, I'm looking for some partners, to help me in FITA. I'm calling from Europe, so it will be useful, if some avatars from USA and/or Down Under will join the FITA. your sincerely Baghira, UID: 100541,2735 German translation ------------------ Hallo Freunde und Besucher Kymers, es ist eine gro e Freude fuer mich, heute die Gruendung einer neuen Agentur in Kymer anzukuen- digen. Wie Ihr sicher gehoert habt, werden bald Wohnungen/Appartementes in Kymer zur Verfuegung gestellt. Im Moment weiss zwar noch keiner wie das mit den Turfs werden soll, aber einige Moeglichkeiten sind schon veroeffentlicht worden. So wird es moeglich sein, dass mehrere Avatars sich ein Turf teilen (bis zu 16 Bewohner). Natuerlich wird dann auch die Miete geteilt. Diese Agentur ist gegruendet worden, um Dinge einfacher zu gestalten. Weisst du nicht mit wem du eine Wohnung teilen sollst? Moechtest Du zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt mit einem Freund/Freundin allein in einer Wohnung sein? Moechtest Du in Deiner Wohnung Leute treffen, die aehnliche Interessen haben? Moechtest Du Deinen Wohnungsanteil verkaufen? Diese Agentur wird Dir dabei helfen. Zur Zeit ist noch nicht bekannt, wie die Wohnungen verteilt werden, doch wenn Du auf die FITA Warteliste kommen moechtest, sende eine Email an mich. Um moeglichst flexibel beim An- und Vermieten von Wohnungen zu sein, finde ich es notwendig, dass der Preis um auf die Liste zu gelangen 100 Tokens betraegt. Dieser Betrag ist meiner Meinung nach sehr fair, und auch von Newbies aufzubringen. Ich moechte mit dieser Aktion keinen grossen Profit machen, darum verspreche ich, dass jeder seinen Beitrag zurueckerhaelt, sollte ueber die FITA die Wohnungsvergabe nicht wie geplant stattfinden koennen. Deine Email sollte deinen Avatarnamen, einen Zeitpunkt InWorld zum Treffen und Bezahlen, und eine kurze Beschreibung Deiner Interessen InWorld enthalten, damit eine harmonische Zusammenstellung von Wohn- ungsgemeinschaften moeglich ist. Eine andere Moeglichkeit ist natuerlich mich direkt in Kymer anzusprechen. Ich bin normalerweise von 21:00 (Telekom Billigtarif) bis 23:00 (11:00 bis 13:00 WA) in Kymer, am Wochendende und Ostern wahrscheinlich laenger. Allerdings habe ich keine feste Uhrzeit.
