O&M Party

[Softpaw]

For all of you SL members, I'm hosting an Ozy & Millie Fans party at my place on the 3rd at 5:00pm Pacific Time (GMT -8). IM me (Felix Uritsky) for a teleport or landmark. Hope to see you all there!

You mean you got a new computer?

[Steve the Pocket]

*sigh* I guess this is as good a time as any to come out of the closet: I went and signed up for that thing a few days ago, more to see if it would accept my PayPal account than anything else. It did. But I knew this computer would never be able to play the thing, so I let it hang. Then last night it occurred to me to try downloading it onto one of the eMacs at the library! It worked, and even ran! So I took the tour and found Felix's place (empty of course) and then visited a place I'd heard about, and then the computer crashed. So I didn't get to do much, but I at least know that I can use the thing from somewhere on campus.<br><br>Incidentally, it just so happens that the library closes promptly at five on Saturdays.<br><br>"And isn't it ironic, don'tcha think?" <!--emo&--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/cry2.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='cry2.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I tried to get into it, raelly I did, but MMORPG's just ain't for me. I prefer fast action.<br><br>*continues playing Call of Duty 2*

[Blue Blur]

Guh, dial up. Really, I like some MMORPGs, such as Runescape, but my internet sucks so bad, well, I dunno...<br><br>But it sucks.

Where does the money come from?

[Richard K Niner]

Dwell. It's a payment from Linden Labs (made in Lindens) that reflects the traffic your parcels receive (from people who stay for at least three minutes).

[Burning Sheep Productions]

Is this real money or game money?

[Softpaw]

Game money, although I do receive a discount on the monthly land fee (in USD) for having a large amount of traffic to my land.
