I just went there... and now it's nothing but open water!

I dont know what the actual answer is.. I just know LLs response was at best...flaccid. That's a very good way to put it, and now I know why we still haven't seen the promised blog entry... ...the Lindens are still waiting for their shipment of Lie-agra to come in to firm up their flaccid reasoning. |

Magellan's Camp Info
04-16-2008 13:31
Ok, here's the skinny...
The camp site is in Gaeta 5 (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Gaeta_5_reg4/214/156/162) and consists of a dead fire, some firewood, an empty canteen made by Kim Anubis and dead rum bottles made by Osprey Therian for Harry Linden long ago. There is also an atoll style walkway used as a jetty suggesting a boat, but none we could see. There are some pictures here on my flikr site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/headburroantfarm/ One last thing - the parcel is owned by Mag and the "About Land" check contains this message: "Let those follow me who can"... A challenge? _____________________

OMG, I just saw him a few minutes ago! When I saw the news here, I snuck away from RL and went to look around. I ran into Osprey and HeadBurro and saw the camp, then went to check out a few other dots in the area.
While I was closer to the mountain part of the continent, I panned back to check out a couple of dots on the beach-- one was Pygar and the other was Magellan!! He disappeared again before I could get a pic. This is so exciting! Seems like it's just a matter of time now before he returns. _____________________

I SAW MAGELLAN LINDEN!!! Just several minutes ago... I'm so excited I can hardly type I was visiting Gaeta - for the second time since it stopped being shadow land. For the first time it was completely abandoned, which was kind of impressive when you set up draw distance to maximum... today there were trees on the beach. I teleported near the first green spot, it was Guy Linden. I stayed in a different sim, not sure what to do - coming to him and asking "Hi, we are looking for Magellan Linden, haven't you seen him recently" just seemed stupid at that moment. I TP away and after a while I just tried look at the map again - and there were two green spots. I TP'd near the second one - and it was Magellan Linden!!! He was in a busy mode, terraforming or building or whatever... And I ofcourse absolutelly didn't know what to do. I was just trying to set up my snapshots to capture interface and names, when he dissapeared, apparently noticed me... But I managed to do one photography! I just have to find out how to upload it here...So good new is he is alive and probably alright... not so good new is he dissapeared after he spotted me... but he doesn't know me after all, maybe Salazar or Osprey should try to contact him? HURRAH! Excellent field work, Miss Chernov! Magellan accepted the things I sent him recently at 11:12am SLT today! Good to hear he is alive. I will get out to the new continent as soon as I am able. Good job everyone! |

It was very exciting to see him in person after hearing so much about him! (my cheeks hurt from grinning...) |

Congratulations everyone involved in searching for Magellan, it's your belief that you could find him that has brought back to the world.

One of the bottles on the beach has a message in it.. Ooh, good work! I totally missed that... I'm assuming 'O. Flytrap' is Osprey's brother Ozymandias, since the Photo Studio is mentioned... don't know what he might be referring to, though. Curiouser and curiouser! _____________________

Just dawned on me that I didn't check the creator on the bottle/note. My map is now all screwy and I can't get back there - maybe somebody else could check the createor of the note prim before anybody puts much thought into what the note means....
edit: created by Osprey.. Sorry - false alarm..  edit edit: or.. maybe it does contain something else.. I only read the note that you can see in the bottle.. |

Dog of war...
04-16-2008 23:09
Last I heard Ozy was / is a mercenary - this could be a coded message... what has Magellan got himself wrapped up in? Could this mean he is hiding rather than exploring?

I'm curious about what he wanted the flowers for. Not that it's any of my business, of course. Just sounds like there's probably an interesting story there.

Magellan's Expanding Camp
04-16-2008 23:28
Well, our man has been busy over the past few hours - his camp is expanding and it appears he must have crashed on this new land (he'll never get insurance if he keeps having prangs) as the camp is stitched together from old bits of an airship:

Flowers of war
04-16-2008 23:32
I'm curious about what he wanted the flowers for. Not that it's any of my business, of course. Just sounds like there's probably an interesting story there. In my limited experience, if Ozy wants something its best not to inquire to much... O_o _____________________

Message ina bottle...
04-16-2008 23:40
One of the bottles on the beach has a message in it.. Dunno what, if anything, it means though.. I couldn't find this one, but I did find a clear glass bottle with the following message in... oh my aching heart... "16 April 2008 Dearest Magellan, I am searching for you on the new continent, and I hope you are all right. About the last time we met - it's all water under the bridge now. I hope you understand. Let us never mention it again. Please come back. Your loving Os" See it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/headburroantfarm/2419856561/ It's so unfair... sigh /me logs out and goes to work with a very heavy heart and an aching bunion... _____________________
