I think I don't believe you...I think this is something one has to actually see to believe. :D

@Oryx: I hadn't thought about that, right-so if you have an eye on the post numbers in the respective threads and offer a new one now and then that's fine!

Alyx, dear Alyx, I tell you I did see it. with my own eyes. It was hours ago, but I am only now recovering from my turning into stone.

Hey guys,

Not quite sure where to put this, since the hangout land thread got buried, so I guess I'll just throw it up here.

I wanted to contribute something to the project, and when I mentioned shoutcast hosting it seemed to pique a few peoples' interest.

So.

Does anyone think the group would benefit from our own shoutcast stream? People may not be able to broadcast at 192k, for bandwidth reasons, but we could still have people share their music, maybe do open mic events, things like that, from time to time?

Anyway, I'll throw in a 30GB/month streaming plan to be included in the jukebox lineup, if people will actually make use of it, and generally think it would be a worthwhile contribution. :)

I'd like to apologize for leaving a river of blood behind when I crashed last night.

Worst. Period. Ever.

Seriously, I've given half a dozen people the commands for the river. I'm not posting it in the forums though so that we don't get a million new people flashing it constantly.

I'll pull that script after halloween.

How extremely generous of you.

We were hoping to do that but it got tabled initially as being more technically difficult that we wanted to manage at the time. We also were lacking a benefactor to provide hosting.

I do have SAM but never learned to use it. As we already have M.C. Marty in da house, there is someone to help get the ball rolling. I presume Sobq has some experience there also.

Should this become well used, I'll throw some ducats at Sobriquet for additional server capacity. You might even get the mellifluous vocal stylings and widly eclectic mixes of Mr. Petunia, because he knows that Phillip Glass, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Isolrubin BK, and Sqonk Opera are *big* crowd pleasers.

I've set out the Hangglider Party Rezzer on the empty land next to the roadhouse. To use it, just right-click and ride the glider, then press page-up to gain altitude. A new glider will be rezzed so other people can hangglide at the same time.

The gliders are programmed to disappear when you dismount, but that doesn't happen when you crash while flying (either complete crash, or getting tossed when crossing a sim border). If you can find the glider, try riding it again, which usually makes it disappear. :)

Why do you all sound like it has been a kind of...scarring experience? POOR Chris! Men are so...sensitive about "these things"

@Ava: Cool! I managed to crash Raymond's glider into the border of his neighbour's sim on the first try, maybe it will work better the second time!

I like that idea, Sobri. I'll have to learn more about it, as I know nothing about that stuff. Sounds cool though! Chris Norse is in charge of the jukebox up in the building. He's the goto guy for that stuff. :)

Doesn't bother me a bit Alyx, I know once these poor girls see the perfection that is me, they are ruined for all other men.

Come get your piece of pie today...and if you want your dreamy pie-in-the-sky thought bubble...just IM me.

What are you waiting for...pick up your pie!

If their designer likes pie. They like pie. In my particular case...my designer craved it with an unwavering passion.

However, HAV units aren't suppose to eat. Catch 22?
