I love the idea!! Its way better than trying to gather up some people to
play paintball with. I think it would be a great hit. (no pun intended)
hehe. Personally I prefer to play something to try to beat my own score, not
compete against a lot of other people. Who knows? This might turn out to be
bigger than AWBingo!! Well maybe (shrugs). ;-"D

Maybe have tournaments once a month with prizes for the biggest trophy fish
caught or for bagging that elusive 18 pointer???? Eventually perhaps allow
tourists to play which would bring in much more business, similar to the way
Mutation lures them in. No prizes tho for the tourists, but they could
recieve recognition if they won a tournament? Default avs can be wearing
hunting camo. And disabling fly and shift to give it more handicap. Just
throwing some ideas out at ya. ;-")

Love that idea. Hoping AWI loves it too. It doesn't seem too costly for the
company. I wonder how easy it would be for them to set something like that
up and keep track of though? (In addition to everything else they have to
keep track of) Wouldn't they need someone extra to keep tabs on all that and
issue the prizes in a timely manner? I can see that idea taking off and
becoming a handful for the couple of people running AWI. Any thoughts or
suggestions?

But perra isn't spanish hon. I doubt he knew what the spanish translation
meant. ;-")

and.... to the best of my memory (had 3 years of spanish classes in high
school)...... the word "perra" simply means dog. Not to be confused with
"pera" which means "but". Although there IS a high probability the word
"perra" means something completely different in another language. Has anyone
bothered asking him what made him select that name with that spelling? I
doubt it. ;-") Just as I'm positive he didn't realize how offensive
that url might have been to some people.

Are we so shallow as to judge others based on the innocent mistakes they
make? In that case, I'm sure I am doomed since I make plenty of them
myself. And if we are judging others by innocent mistakes, what does that
make us as a community? I'm sure if Perra was someone who reads the
newsgroups (not many do) he would apologize and would probably be VERY upset
by what others are saying about him behind his back.

I've known Perra for 5 years now. He is NOT the kind of person who goes out
of his way to post offensive material like some others I've met. Nor would
he choose a name for himself that would be deliberately offensive. Unlike
some people here, in these ngs, who I've seen do some pretty mean things to
people either in chat or posting here.

Not mentioning any names or pointing fingers but you all know if you did
something deliberately mean or nasty to someone or made a simple mistake
that was not recieved well by someone else and was judged harshly. Please
remember what that felt like before you go saying things like this about
someone who isn't here to defend themself. If we HAVE to comment on other's
actions, let's please keep it in whispers and grams, instead of smearing
their reputation in the public ngs behind their backs. How embarrassing for
that person!

I mean jeeeeeeez........ how many of the Gor people also built religious
things within the Gor worlds over the holidays??? I am just guessing, of
course, that someone out there did something like that... I'm sure somebody
would have done something as thoughtless as that. And yet I don't see anyone
complaining about it here in a public forum. (Go ahead and flame me... I
don't care)

Sorry CP....... I wasn't directing all of this to you specifically. It was
intended for some of the others who either started this thread or agreed
with it. However I do recall when you first started in AW as a tourist and
some of the antics you did back then were pretty annoying, to say the least.
But nobody singled you out to complain about how you acted.... in the
newsgroups.

That would be so great Ry! I know of a few people at the Gate area who live
in either NZ or Australia and some of them don't read the ngs. Perhaps if
you spread the word at the gate often enough (like at different times of the
day so you can catch them all), you'll get a decent response or even someone
would be willing to put it together for you or work with you on it. I'm sure
there are some folks in AWTeen and Junodome who would also be interested.
Best of luck to you. I'd like to see you all get together sometime. ;-")

Ya know... I've been asking for a particular object for years now and so far
nobody has come up with this... Some people, including myself, use the
hot air balloon object to create large sculptures. However that silly basket
always gets in the way! And the balloon part has angles on it. When using a
color code, the flat planes of the balloon alter the appearance I'm trying
to get. (ask me about the problems I had making muscles and the face for my
Sphinx!) The large boulders aren't quite large enough or smooth enough. They
have all kinds of bumpy surfaces or flat planes on them. They're impossible
to use in a "mirror image" when trying to achieve a symmetrical design. I
know there is a sphere object in the OY but it comes with a square shaped
base below it which gets in the way. I know there is a dome and dome shaped
objects in the OY, but they have flat planes on them and not large enough.
If someone could possibly create a large sphere, the size of one of those
hot air balloons, (or larger) it would be sooooooooo awesome!!! And if that
object could possibly depict a color code or texture code correctly, it
would lead to some MAJOR works of art. A few different sizes of perfectly
round, smooth spheres would be so great. As it is now, I find that to get
the look I'm trying to achieve, I have to use a lot of miscellaneous smaller
objects to get the curves or shape I want in my builds. I'm sure the B.I.
would be most grateful too. ;-")

Another thing that would be neat to use in alphaworld would be avs. Not just
the tourist avs but the nice looking ones. Perhaps some animals? I've seen
animal objects in use in some of the other 3D universes so I do know it's
possible. (Not just sprites).

How bout some marble statues for our gardens and/or fountains? Not the ones
with lumps and bumps and flat planes, but smooth and tempting to touch.
Perhaps if we had human or animal av objects that accepted a texture code?
Wouldn't it be neat to have a posed human av that we could assign a texture
like marble or goldcurt or stone to? (Not referring to the CY av! LOL)
Sorta like a Roman statue or Rodin. Something classical..... graceful.

And something I've been trying to achieve through the use of masks, coronas
and other commands is gems. Wouldn't it be awesome to have sparkling jewels
adorning some of the builds throughout alphaworld?? Perhaps something clear
so we can add a color command to it to add more pizzazz? Smaller clear glass
panes (without the trim) would also help.

Also it would be great if we had larger columns. Ones that DON"T have the
square shaped ends on them and can accept texture and color commands easily.

I often wondered why we don't have simple, basic shapes in various sizes to
add texture or color commands to, especially now that we discovered how to
fool the B.I. with remotes. For instance if we had a rectangular object, in
the shape of a bookshelf, that accepted a jpg ..... imagine the
possibilities! Or spheres that accepted jpg's! If we already have objects
that one can assign a picture to, why can't we have simple basic shapes that
allow it? Not just for furnishing a house, or creating a wall..... but
perhaps making a huge marble sculpture for instance? That would be so
inspiring for people who have lost interest in building. (speaking for
myself LOL)

Of course you are probably referring to objects you can make for world
owners and not for alphaworld. But I'm hoping that perhaps ENZO or someone
from AWI will read this and do something simple to improve the object
selection. I know we have a LOT to choose from already and its silly of me
to suggest simple shapes. But I truly feel that if we had those to use, more
people would build, more tourists would get inspired to register, and AWI
would have something that nobody else online has to offer (more incentive).

Ok, that concludes my wish list for objects for now. (Steps down from the
soapbox) Gram me if you need any more ideas. hehehe.

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Any of Arden's RL family if they see

opportunity to meet him about a year ago. We had such a delightful
conversation about our families. He was a very down to earth person, full of
wit, charm, humor and integrity. You can't ask for more than that in a
friend. I, myself, am truly sad over this, in addition to being shocked
since nobody mentioned to me that he was ill to begin with. Funny how we all
plunder along in AW not even thinking there are seriously ill people there
too and that one day we may lose some dear friends along the way. He will be
sorely missed. AW has lost another of their "Great" ones. ;-"<

tried to use Yahoo as the company requesting and the first time someone
actually had the gonads to ask me for my CC # and pin. hahahahah!!! X

[View Quote]

Feb 12, 2005, 12:49am

Well the thing that cracked me up the most is that Yahoo has no interest
whatsoever in my CC #!!! I don't pay for anything with them. I don't have
any kind of "paypal" acct on there or whatever they call it. I never
purchased anything thru them whatsoever.

I did, however, forward it to security at yahoo and also to a federal
organization that investigates ID theft and attempts at it. So, we'll see
what they have to say.

Interesting thing about whatever code they used... when I copied and pasted
it onto notepad I got these funky looking symbol thingies in the middle of
most of the words, making it very difficult to read. Is that what they refer
to as Uni-code?

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Bittie and

the time to do AW events because of RL commitments. I know it must've been a
difficult decision for you to come to. You both have my prayers and my
blessings. I do hope everyone can understand why this had to happen. In my
opinion, if someone isn't happy about it, then perhaps they can take it over
and deal with all the demands and energy that is involved in pulling it
together to please everybody. You have done an outstanding job, both of
you.... You poured your hearts and souls into it and for what? Criticism and
nitpicking. Unfortunately there aren't enough people interested in it to
help do it or take it over. Best of luck to you both and God bless. We still
love you both. ;-") (Wonders now if some people will still be
putting all their creativity into their builds 0_0 . I hope so!! )

I am profoundly impressed with you Mark. I had no idea you were this
interested in the Cy's and am very proud of you my friend. = ) With all
the valuable contacts you have around AW, you have managed to organize what
is needed within a very short amount of time. I am not sure of what I can do
to help, or the time I can contribute, but I hope there is something I can
do. Again... outstanding in your efforts! Glad someone could find the time
and energy necessary to pull it all together. It would be great to see Cy's
continue. = )
