All--
Due to a large number of requests, we are re-opening applications for SL6B for 3 days. Starting now, (Friday June 12, 1PM SLT) you can submit a new proposal if your first was not accepted, or submit for the first time. Here are the rules for re-entry!
1: DO make your exhibit anything you like - AS LONG AS YOU ATTEMPT TO ADAPT IT TO THE THEME. We're asking you to share with us your vision of the "Future Of Virtual Worlds" as you see it applied to you. If you make pet animals, that's fantastic, stick an astronauts helmet on them! Explore the concept of animals in the future, have fun with it. Don't be afraid to play the game. Use the theme as your springboard, make the future what you want it to be.
2. DO explain what you intend to exhibit in your application. Not asking for a three page proposal justifying the necessity of every prim you rezz, but tell us what your vision is. Use the text space you've got! Don't simply say "Content I've created..." what is the content? If you have trouble explaining in English, please supply links or slurls to examples of your work.
3. DON'T utilize the Exhibit Info space to tell us all about YOU and nothing about your exhibit or your intentions. Your Exhibit info is not your bio. While we'd love to hear your life story, there is a dedicated section for that. The Exhibit Information section is not that place... unless you're exhibiting you and you alone as some form of Life art.
4. DO make sure where it requests your name to put in the name of your Avatar - not your real name. We don't need that info because as much as we like you, you're not on our Christmas card list in real life. We cannot contact your virtual self with your real life name. We can't drop you relevant notecards or send you an IM when the name does not exist in Second Life. By the way, if per chance you're getting odd inventory offers on your real life avatar, see a doctor about that immediately.
5. DON'T offer to put up a stage and invite musicians to sing. We have music coordinators who have gone to great lengths and invested great amounts of time to create a musical schedule on three stages for 24 hours of the day for the entire 7 day duration. If we let everyone have a stage to invite their favorite performers to sing, your neighbor with the Octo-Alien frog on his 512 beside you would be shooting death rays from his eyes at you and your 40 friends who have lagged the region to a standstill, and used up the entire allotment of avatars for the region.
6. DON'T tell us that the only space that will accommodate your vision is a half a sim. While bigger is always better honey, unfortunately the reality of this event and the magnitude of participation doesn't allow us the leisure of handing out full regions to anyone who asks - or anyone at all for that matter. We've tried to give you a diverse selection of plot sizes to accommodate as many ideas and installations as possible. Feel free to request the largest we have to offer, but make sure you justify the necessity! If you request a 2048 and your tell us your exhibit is simply "Cats." Well, that might not be a guaranteed sell.
7. If you choose to disregard these suggestions because you have to have a replication of Ma and Pa Kettle's cabin in the woods, I urge you to remember that a panel does review these applications and an application does not guarantee a parcel.
8. DO remember: This is ONLY a 3 day application extension in consideration of the many, many inquiries we've received. There will NOT be another. This is your last chance to participate. No further extensions will be made this year, there simply isn't time. Rest assured we want you here!
