I just spoke with PetGirl in World. It is 8:10 am Linden and 1710 or 5:10 pm where she is. That would make it at 7pm Linden, it would be 4am where she is. I don't know why the clock said it wrong, kind of weird.

Thank you for spewing sense into this thread.

The most successful software company in the world does a piss-poor job on all these points. Particularly the first three. Why do you expect Linden Labs to do any better?
Yes, it's true, I have a blog now!

Methinks the site forgot all about Daylight Savings Time. :D

You and I must make a pact, we must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I'll be there

I'll reach out my hand to you, I'll have faith in all you do
Just call my name and I'll be there

I'll be there to comfort you,
Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, well that's all I'm after
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be there to protect you, with an unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I'll be there

If you should ever find someone new, I know he'd better be good to you
'Cause if he doesn't, I'll be there
Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah
I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name, I'll be there

(Just look over your shoulders, honey - ooh)

I'll be there, I'll be there, whenever you need me, I'll be there
Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah

I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name, I'll be there...

I think they chose a really bad time, 3-5AM for Europe on a weekday morning? They might as well have declared it open to North Americans only.

Well I know there were some Euro & Asian - time zone who managed to stay up for all or part of the event.

I would think that SL time Saturday 2 - 4 pm might be more likely to get a larger portion of the world population involved. The Asian side would be at the severe disadvantage then, but again, putting it in the middle of a weekend should help most folks make it.

It woulda been really cool if the tote board that the Lindens handed out had functioned, but nevertheless we partied our butts off in Batak! Altruima managed to stop by at the height of the frenzy.

Aw, heck a buddy of mine who hadn't logged in for over a year managed to get online for this! How's that for draw?

I think even 24 hrs earlier would have increased numbers.
