Ok, I forgot SL was going offline for 2 hours, and got logged out in the middle of some really deep serious IM'ing. Sigh.

Well, it's time for more....
TEXT-SL!

If you haven't played before, you will pick it up pretty quick.


/me tries to login to find that there is a compulsory new version of TEXT-SL she must download first.
/me sighs because it takes an hour to download at peak times. "So little time..."
/me finally logs in to find inventory half empty, best friend has muted her, and no-one got back to her about an article she wrote for SL magazine.
/me smiles - TEXT-SL hasn't changed a bit...

/me waits for others to login and join her.

/me logs in as my alt to find that no-one is online in TEXT-SL except me.

/me talks to /me and has a very interesting discussion, that at no point includes any of the following: "how old r u ?" "where are you from" "can I f*** you?" "how do you get lindens plz?"

/me revels in the low lag caused by a complete lack of anyone else in this sim.

/me is IM'd by an angry Nina Stepford. "What do you mean no-one else is online? Am I just a prim of scotch mist, or what?"

/me spends time in humble apologies to Nina

/me pops in and sits on Tid's sign.

Hi, Tid!
Text SL is the only way to go, don't you think?
No lag, no crashes...

/me looks around

Hey, where have all the griefers gone?
Long time passing...

/me frowns

What do you mean, you don't like my singing? I have a beautiful text singing voice!

/me logs out and resolves to finish at least one of her many overdue projects.

(It was great working with you today, BTW).

/me logs in and looks around.

Nic Writer: Wowee! Almost zero lag!

Nic Writer: Not much for graphics, though, is it...?

/me feels content that the person she was sitting next to at Orientation Island just before logout, has now logged into TEXT-SL to say hello.

/me looks anxiously around - yes, where are the griefers??

/me huddles into her waldorf Bing loli-punk outfit and waits for griefers to appear...

lovely tune that, by the way, Lindal - was that the original or the 90s Westlife remake?

*** TEXT-SL BLOG ***

TEXT-SL will be taken down for essential maintenance from 10 am PDT - T-SL time. We apologise to all our residents and hope to inconvenience you. (Was there something supposed to go after 'you'? ---- no, I'm told not.) Ok, message ends.

Keep an eye on the Blog, so we can make you think we are about to update it at any moment.

/me is smug to know that TEXT-SL has attracted attention from griefers at last. (YAY! We are on the map now!)

/me suspends Deandra until... 9:59:59 am PDT T-SL time, and waits for her alt to appear..

/me discovers that Dytska Vieria is an anagram of Deandra Watts (well, close enough), and promptly bans the "alt" until 9:59:59...

The first thing to do in Text SL is to strip naked, put on a horrible prim attachment 3 feet long (regardless of gender) and run around screaming for sex. Other people level by killing you. Thanks for playing.
