name suggestions..
06-20-2004 22:10
in keeping with my thoughts that the name Celina needs to be changed to keep from the bad connotations, i'm listing a few suggestions:
Charon - (Latin/Greek mythology) - ferryman on the river Styx.
Danake - (Latin/Greek mythology) - the coin placed in the mouth of the dead to pay Charon.
Tartarus - (Latin/Greek mythology) - the final dwelling place for those who had been wicked in their mortal lives. It was said to be as far beneath Hades as heaven was above it.
Lamashtu - (Assyro-Babylonian mythology) - a dread female demon also known as 'she who erases'.
Unwaba - (Zulu myhtology) - a mythical chameleon that was send by the sky-god to tell humanity they had eternal life. Because the creature was so slow, humans and other species became mortal after all. The color of a chameleon changes from green to brown, this because it mourns the fact that Unwaba was too slow.
..the heck with it, i'm done for now. worked on these names for a few hours.. lol
if nobody likes them, no problem.. they're just a few ideas to get the ball rolling..

Name it, and your first child, Flipper!
I'll help out wherever I can... I think my best use might be as garbageman, IE, figuring out ways to keep the place operating smoothly and not bogging down. I'm by no means the end all, be all expert on eliminating lag and other problems like this, but have picked up a few tricks or the trade!
Regards,
-Flip

From: someone Tartarus - (Latin/Greek mythology) - the final dwelling place for those who had been wicked in their mortal lives. It was said to be as far beneath Hades as heaven was above it. Im voteing on this name, it a accurately depicts what I want this city to be, a gritty hell on earth. So Tartarus would fit perfectly with this game.

My vote:
06-22-2004 15:08
Out of the names i previously suggested: i like the meaning of Unwaba.. seems befitting of cyberpunk to have to do with immortality and such... BUT, the name isn't all that cool. my vote for best meaning as well as 'cool sounding name' would have to be the same as yours Ryen, Tartarus. Cool and fitting meaning and it sounds cool as well.

Woot, this sounds very intriguing. I've actually just joined SL, so I probably won't be much help as of right now, but hopefully I'll be able to be of more use in the future. I've always been in love with the Cyberpunk genre, books, games...anything, you gotta love grit. I'm only around two days into SL, so I haven't really even got my feet wet, but I've started mingling around with clothing creation, texturing in SL. If you're willing to let a good-for-nothin' newb in your group, give me an IM  Also on a totally side-random sorta note, I think the name for the city (not the project) should be really optimistic and happy, because after all, nobody plans for a city to be crap, eh? |

Houai - we dont want to lie and call this place Happy,Texas (great movie >D). Its not, its a piece of shit city that looks as if it survived a nuclear strike. Thats what we are going for (Please note, piece of shit city doesnt mean shitty arcitechure, it means gritty look  )

Where's the SIM?
06-28-2004 10:18
Hi Hi Ryen and Celina crew How is it going with SIM acquisition? I was going to ask these questions InWorld but I think since alot of information was posted here, it would be good if others new the answers as well as they may have the same question I see that you already accepting investors paying in at 2k and 10k with benefits awarded for early investment. Here are my questions: 1. Is the Celina team pooling their resources to acquire a sim as a group? 2. Is the Celina team looking for an investor to purchase a SIM for the project (If the answer to Question 1 is "no"  . 3. What is the incentive for a person to investment the money to purchase a SIM and join the project? 4. If Celina does wish to obtain a private sim investory - how are the finances going to be settled as far as 'shares'. What benefit does the SIM owner have - specifically what is the financial arrangement looking like? 5. Financially, where is the early investment money going? Just curious. I think anyone who can get a sim would like to know the answers to these questions for considering future investment. Thank you! Briana Dawson |

Briana, anwers to your questions 1.no 2.no 3.none 4.none 5.Being dispensed throughout the group(atleast it will be heh). We have already obtained a sim, but it is simply private at this time. We wish to build the sim first and then release it once we are done

This is exactly what I would like to work on. I've been playing Neocron for two years and still play to this day. I'm good at building and fairly good at texturing. I LOVE cyberpunk style and industrial music. I'd love to help with building in any way.

Ryen,
It sounds like you already have a group all setup, but if you still need/want help I'm a scripter, and am very interested in this idea. I'll shoot you an IM next time i'm online.
If you have scripters already dedicated to this project then I am willing to do one off's if you ever need it.
