If another SL like game started a beta would you sign up so you could be the new FIC?

I kissed my girlfriend last night, but I didn't kiss you. Does that make you feel short changed?


Dunno. Is your gf a Linden?

Just curious!

Absolutely!

Bub Linden says there is talk at the Linden office that there will be a competitor in 2006.

Can anyone speculate on what that means? Are there any rumors afloat anywhere about any upcoming new virtual worlds?

Necroposter.

And anyway, there are already competitors. SL is hardly the only virtual world.

Just the best one.

"they" might have a head start, "they" could be in SL right now taking notes about un-thought out features and the un-released features, getting a feel for the ppl who play on these things, what they want/like or would like to have, gathering thoughts on how to avoid some of SL's issues (rather it be technical or social)ect...

if there is a new world comming out on the internet it could be a good race

I did not say that there are no existing virtual worlds other than SL.

I did not ask if there are any existing virtual worlds other than SL.

I said that Bub Linden states that the office scuttlebutt is that there will be a new virtual world appearing in 2006 to compete with Second Life.

I would assume that means one that would be serious competition.


Regarding responding to posts which have not been replied to for a while, I think I would accept Jeska Linden's view on the subject rather than Phoenix Psaltery's.

I'd sign up, just not to be FIC...

I'd do it to test it out, be able to reccomend it if it was good, and hopefully got 4096sq m tier free :p

What's this thread about? Saying FIC?
You know you aren't fic unless you produce big shiny objects inworld, that people like and are easy to market.



Big Shiny Fic Logo, can be seen on the 'secret' #Secondlife Plot in Triangulum, in the south west corner.
