Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Exile
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/06/exile.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Thursday, June 30, 2005. I'd have to sell land B. To Avatar C,. Before someone else bought up land A. Or something like that. Would the sale have gone through? I thought, booting up my machine, Was the land next door still available? I'll never know, because as of last night, my machine decided anything online, including the internet and Second Life, doesn't exist. That's what it told me. Yahoo? Later tha...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: 09/05/2004 - 09/12/2004

Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Monday, September 06, 2004. The Aquagon (the Goldfish that Crashed Green). If you fly through northern Green you may spot a blue cylindrical building with glass walls. Fly closer and you'll find fish, plants and seahorses within. If you feel like it, take the tunnel to the inside viewing room, have a seat, and watch the fishes. You've found the Aquagon, my walk in aquarium. Then I read the note. Somet...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Scattered
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/06/scattered.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Sunday, June 05, 2005. Ironic that my last post should complain about the chaotic and disjointed nature of Second Life, considering how scattered this post is. Lots of things going on at once. Tayzia Abattoir was kind enough to host my builds in her Crescent moon museum, now located in Montmartre. I unloaded my favorites, including my two recent builds:. I tried putting my dress on a generic bear, but it ...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Chaos on the Continent
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/05/chaos-on-continent.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Tuesday, May 24, 2005. Chaos on the Continent. Don't get me wrong- I love Second Life, but one thing bugs me: the continent layout is as orderly as the spilled contents of a pinata. Builds scatter the grid randomly, with little relation to each other. Only the color of the ground (turf? The road. The result? Local materials and building styles also affect the conformity of RL builds (or used to). If r...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: 10/24/2004 - 10/31/2004

Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Thursday, October 28, 2004. Real and Not Real (at the same time). It's happened at least twice. I'm invited to a (real life) party. I plan to go. I'm looking forward to it. Then I log into Second Life, meet up with some avitar pals (or get involved in an event or project), and end up blowing off the real life party because I'm having fun in Second Life. Is this wrong? Have I completly lost it?

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Fish School
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/07/fish-school.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Thursday, July 14, 2005. My pet fish needed work. Every few weeks they'd get loose and swam off world. Idiots. Recently , I found Surina Skallagrimson's fish in Themiskyra. As Hamlet Linden observed in New World Notes. Surina had posted some tips on how to script fish. On the forums. With this knowledge, would I be able to train my fish to behave? I sense 0 other fish! I sense 0 other fish! More specifica...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Zombie!
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/06/zombie.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Wednesday, June 22, 2005. It started innocently enough. At dawn I was strolling Nexx Yosserian's Skyline Graveyard. The fog and lighting gave it a pretty-but-creepy atmosphere, so I snapped some pictures. Then I noticed something. My avatar had morphed into. A twisted red eyed zombie! A mouse jiggle restored my looks. But a few snapshots later. I was zombified again! What was going on? Once there was this...

Second Life & Times of Olympia Rebus: Meet the Gods
http://olympiarebus.blogspot.com/2005/05/meet-gods.html
Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Thursday, May 19, 2005. I've been a mythology buff since I was a kid, so when I spotted a Sim named Athena. I went to check it out. Great timing, as there was a gathering of the gods. Technically you needed ancient Greek or Roman garb to attend, but my anacronistic garb got a past since I was named Olympia. Wanting to fit in, I threw together a quickie Medusa. Here's who was there:. Messenger of the gods.

Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Friday, October 22, 2004. SL Popularity and Success (or Lack Thereoff). I'd been out of town, and was looking forward to returning to SL. Who knew what surprises awaited me? Surely there'd be IM's, perhaps some "So-and-so has rated you positivly notes." Maybe I'd hit some dwell critical mass over the weekend where everyone suddenly wanted to visit my builds! I wondered, Nah, I can do it. Besides, it's...

Second Life and Times of Olympia Rebus. I shoot my mouth off about what I see and do in Second Life. Thursday, September 30, 2004. The Pull of the Plug. I'd waited some time for an advanced scripting class. When one was offered, I was there. Completely absorbed, I took notes, coppied chunks of transcript, and tweaked two open scripts as the class went on. This was cool! Yes," she said. "I just had my machine worked on and now it's acting funny so I unplugged the cable-". Make things move and do stuff?
