What would you build if you had all the money and time in the world?

Has anyone seen the Narnia/Christmas Carol sim? (A search for "Dickens" will help you find it.) It is a very well put together place. I think it is a fine example of a literary sim.

No - please list the SLurl. Sounds wonderful.

... if i had all the money and time in the world (and let's not forget skill), i'd definately build a life sized animated Johnny Depp bot.

not just any old bot mind you - he'd be scripted to adore me and only me. He would be able to do stuff like dance in a non-dorky way, pay me random compliments, give me low prim bunches of flowers and boxes of choccies. He'd be an expert masseuse and love the music i love. He wouldnt need to say much (minus the compliments above) but he would need to be fairly competent in all things romantic ... yes even jiggy jiggy.

Ah ... tis all but a dream ... a great dream nonetheless :)

if you have time, you don't need skill, you can learn it along the way....

Actually, if I had all the money and time in the world I'd spend it establishing a permanent and profitable industrial base on the Moon and in the Asteroid Belt.

I am at work now, so I can't get in-world, but I'll try to post it later today.

Sorry, this took so long, but I have searched over and over and I cannot find this place anymore. I found it the first time by searching Dickens. I hope they didn't shut the sim down. =(

If I had the time and money, I'd set up a frum Jewish area within Second Life. Frum Jews are observant. I hate the denominational name, Orthodox. Currently the only Jewish group I found within Second Life does not keep Shabbos (concert scheduled for after sundown on Friday!) I dropped it like a hot potato.

I would build the main gathering spaces, something simple and not too photo real. I'd do some of the landscaping since I love making trees, flowers and plants.

I'd give away parcels of land to those who wanted to settle.

I'd also set up the rules, dress code, rules about nasty language etc.... I'd ask residents not to login during Shabbos in their time zone. We might get some trouble from the charedi/haredi, but most of them wouldn't go near Second Life anyway. Conservative, Traditional, and some Orthodox Jews might try Second Life though if we had a community that catered to our needs.


Sounds wonderful - would the sim allow non-Frum or non Jewish visitors?

Aww. Well, perhaps it was seasonal. Thank you, so much, for trying.
