Before anything I'd like to thank all of those who have come out in an overwhelming response to the event. I am a strong believer in honoring my peers and making note of their achievements. That ethic, shared by many, has always been what has made the SL community so strong. This event has given me the spectacular opportunity to do that again, and open the venue for everyone I share this limitless virtual reality the same opportunity. As a result, it has afforded me and countless others the opportunity to meet many new friends we might not have had otherwise. Ultimately, every effect of this event has incurred positive results, and I am so delighted that so many have rallied behind it to support the powerful manifests of our fellow participants.

Because the community response has been absolutely overwhelming, I believe it is important to make certain as many people as possible have the chance to utilize their voice and vote; it is the people who have brought this small idea to fruition and whose interest has made it a success. To ensure everyone has a chance to vote I am extending the voting deadline until March 19th. Then the results will be tallied and construction of our auditorium will be finished.


Prior to this event, I had remained primarily in the hermitage of my own world. The sheer size of it is both fascinating and a little overwhelming. When the nominees were revealed I decided to visit the sims that the community noted, and It was great to see so many campaining in good spirit, displaying their nomination package (Which each nominne recieved personalized) spreading the word of the event and giving their visitors, patrons and friends a chance to cast their vote. I was in awe of many of the new places I had seen; and am *so* glad I didn't miss- which, again, was a direct result of this event. For that I'm very grateful.

It's been so wonderful watching everything evolve and come together, and I could not think of a more worthy effort within my capabilities than one to celebrate Second Life and it's people.

So far, people have said they'll be arriving my limousine, helicopter, even one horseback. They will walk the red carpet, schmooze with friends both old and new, and hopefully enjoy an unforgettable evening.

I'm always open to comments, questions or suggestion. I urge anyone to feel free to contact me if they have an inquiry. Or, simply feel free to say hello!

If any are still uncertain of location, just look for the big MVA sign on your map in the Zim Zoe. Poof, you're there. I'll be there too!

Warmly,
PF
