[09:06] Lilith Ivory: let me send out a shout in group IM and than I can call this meeting to order
[09:06] Tanoujin Milestone: k
[09:07] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Hi Pip, welcome
[09:07] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi Pip
[09:07] Tor Karlsvalt: Well hello Pip!
[09:07] Lilith Ivory: Hi Pip
[09:07] Tor Karlsvalt: Pull up a chair.
[09:07] Ranma Tardis: Hey a girl Pip
[09:07] Pip Torok: ?
[09:07] Ranma Tardis: take a close look
[09:07] Pip Torok: am i ruth'd?
[09:07] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): i see a normal Pip
[09:08] Ranma Tardis: yes
[09:08] Tor Karlsvalt: Look fine to me, Pip
[09:08] Ranma Tardis: unruthed
[09:09] Tor Karlsvalt: I read someplace that we should not be ruthed anymore. But I notice that FS has a handy dandy Undeform Avatar function.
[09:10] Pip Torok: oh! ... interesting!
[09:10] Lilith Ivory: it´s a sad think the RA archivist has not posted the ammendment of the question hour act yet so we operate in some kind of law free zone at the moment
[09:10] Tor Karlsvalt: Oh and Ranma, America doesn't have politcs, just a Trump reality TV show.
[09:10] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): lol Tor
[09:11] Ranma Tardis: next RA meeting should be short
[09:11] Lilith Ivory: Hi Shep :)
[09:11] Tor Karlsvalt: Hello Shep!
[09:11] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Hi Shep
[09:11] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi Shep :)
[09:11] Ranma Tardis: Hi Shep!
[09:12] Tanoujin Milestone: there is a chair free to my left
[09:12] Pip Torok: Fridays Economist had an amusing cover cartoon of the GOP...
[09:12] Shep (shep.titian): Hello all ... grin
[09:12] Lilith Ivory: amazing outfit if I may say that Shep
[09:12] Shep (shep.titian): awww thanks
[09:12] Shep (shep.titian): Ison
[09:12] Ranma Tardis: Yrs it is great
[09:13] Lilith Ivory smiles and nods
[09:13] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Are we waiting for more people to show up?
[09:13] Shep (shep.titian): How is everyone?
[09:13] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Puzzled lol
[09:13] Lilith Ivory: Rosie said she would come but I think we can start
[09:13] Tor Karlsvalt carefully inspects Shep's outfit.
[09:14] Shep (shep.titian): hahahahaha bad boy!!!
[09:14] Tor Karlsvalt: What?
[09:14] Lilith Ivory: I call this meeting to order and want you to know that it has to be transcripted and posted at the forum
[09:14] Shep (shep.titian): ok
[09:15] Lilith Ivory: as long as we are not just sitting here to gossip I would say :)
[09:15] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): :)
[09:15] Lilith Ivory: only if we get to a point where real CDS relatated question ans answers arise
[09:15] Lilith Ivory grins
[09:16] Pip Torok: one avi's gossip is another avi's business ...
[09:16] Tor Karlsvalt: Can I make announcement?
[09:16] Tanoujin Milestone: our little dump, or gwyn...
[09:16] Lilith Ivory: yes of course Tor
[09:16] Tor Karlsvalt: Ok, this is really informal.
[09:16] Lilith Ivory: it´s a funny idea to call CDS Gwyn btw
[09:16] Lilith Ivory: might lead to some funny misunderstandings
[09:17] Tor Karlsvalt: You might have noticed me working on the shop behind us here on the Quay.
[09:17] Mizou (mizou.vavoom) is looking
[09:17] Tor Karlsvalt: Rosie asked me to set up an manage a Market where CDS citizens could resell their unwanted and extra gacha items.
[09:18] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): good idea
[09:18] Tor Karlsvalt: So pretty soon I will announce it formally and request that anyone wanting to sell gachas join the group.
[09:18] Tor Karlsvalt: It should be a good service and use of a shop not being used atm.
[09:19] Pip Torok: gachas?
[09:19] Tor Karlsvalt: Well pip, apparently we are behind the times.
[09:19] Tor Karlsvalt: Seems SL is nuts over gachas
[09:19] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): totally agree
[09:19] Lilith Ivory leans back and waits for the Gatcha market manager to explain Gatcha
[09:19] Shep (shep.titian): Callie is the gatcha queen
[09:19] Tor Karlsvalt: Basically people take an inexpensive chance on gettign any number of objects
[09:19] Pip Torok: enlighten me please ....
[09:20] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): she is and her shop is amazing
[09:20] Tor Karlsvalt: The stuff is usually of good quality.
[09:20] Lilith Ivory: indeed
[09:20] Lilith Ivory: a lot of big stores have Gatcha machines out
[09:20] Tor Karlsvalt: Anyway, one often ends up with stuff one doesn't want or duplicates.
[09:20] Lilith Ivory: with different items inside
[09:20] Tanoujin Milestone: technically spoken cheap copy/trans objects?
[09:21] Tor Karlsvalt: yes, that's right lilith.
[09:21] Lilith Ivory: you pay a few L$ and get one of those items but you never know which
[09:21] Tor Karlsvalt: So this has spawned another craze for gacha resale shops.
[09:21] Tor Karlsvalt: Hi Calli
[09:21] Lilith Ivory: HI Calli :)
[09:21] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): of which Calli is one
[09:21] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi Calli
[09:21] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): lol
[09:21] Pip Torok: and resales of resales?
[09:21] Tanoujin Milestone: we need an additional chair
[09:22] Ranma Tardis: Hi Calli
[09:22] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): hi Calli, you must have heard us speak about your shop?
[09:22] Lilith Ivory: you are exactly the right person for the topic we have already
[09:22] Callipygian Christensen: of which I am one - lol?
[09:22] Tor Karlsvalt: oh yes
[09:22] Lilith Ivory: as we were about to explain to Pip what Gatcha is
[09:22] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): please explain your shop
[09:22] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): the workings of it
[09:23] Lilith Ivory: Tor is a bout to work on a community Gatcha market where all citizens can sell their items
[09:23] Pip Torok suppress a "gotcha Gatcha" ;)
[09:23] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): here is a chair Calli
[09:23] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): beside Shep
[09:24] Tor Karlsvalt: Yes, it will be a service for all citizens who have some gachas.
[09:24] Rosie Gray: hi everyone
[09:24] Lilith Ivory: Hi Rosie :)
[09:24] Tor Karlsvalt: But first we will limit everyone to 10 LI
[09:24] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi osie
[09:24] Tor Karlsvalt: Hi Rosie.
[09:24] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): hi Rosie
[09:24] Callipygian Christensen: gacha started in Japan - it's a 'put money in the machine and get one of a number of possible items at random'
[09:25] Tor Karlsvalt: Rosie is the one who stuck, I mean suggested, that I work on the Gacha Market.
[09:25] Shep (shep.titian): Hi Rosie :)
[09:25] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[09:25] Lilith Ivory: HI Agatha
[09:25] Agatha Macbeth: Hello
[09:25] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Hi Agatha
[09:25] Rosie Gray: sorry to be late, I just got up
[09:25] Callipygian Christensen: in SL there are big events with many creators doing sets of items - they go into the machines as transferable, no copy - so can be traded or sold in an aftermarket
[09:25] Lilith Ivory: we have a government question hour here at the moment but please feel free to join us
[09:25] Callipygian Christensen: and hi everyone
[09:26] Lilith Ivory: I want to mention at this point again that this meeting will be transcripted and posted at our forum
[09:26] Tor Karlsvalt: Hi Agatha, from Arosa.
[09:26] Agatha Macbeth waves
[09:26] Callipygian Christensen: Rosie - take that empty chair - I may have to run at any minute depending on dog or brunch
[09:27] Rosie Gray: oh okay, thanks
[09:27] Rosie Gray: still waiting for rez
[09:27] Lilith Ivory decides to move over and open another table for the unexpected crowd
[09:27] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[09:28] Rosie Gray: I'll sit here too
[09:28] Tanoujin Milestone: so Pip, we should start to buy gatchas to have something to sell, that would be a patriotic act ;)
[09:28] Tor Karlsvalt: welcome back Ranma
[09:28] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[09:28] Ranma Tardis: :)
[09:29] Rosie Gray: lol, that's right Tan
[09:29] Rosie Gray: hehe
[09:29] Rosie Gray: plus it's kind of fun
[09:29] Lilith Ivory: or maybe just buy the ones other citizens offer
[09:29] Tor Karlsvalt: There you go, Lilith.
[09:29] Tor Karlsvalt: Anyway, the stuff can be quite good.
[09:29] Rosie Gray: the nice thing about buying them 'after market' is that there's no chance
[09:30] Rosie Gray: you know what you are getting
[09:30] Tor Karlsvalt: And if it is just weighing you down in your inventory, you might has well liberate it to someone else for a few lindens.
[09:30] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[09:30] Tanoujin Milestone: ah, presents!
[09:31] Tor Karlsvalt: And perhaps it will draw a few gacha hunters to LA.
[09:31] Ranma Tardis: sadly my transfer inventory is old
[09:31] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): so we need to advertise the shop maybe?
[09:31] Lilith Ivory: it would have to be advertised to draw traffic I think
[09:31] Rosie Gray: yes Mizou, we were just waiting until it was ready
[09:31] Tor Karlsvalt: Perhaps Mizou. When we see if we have enough stuff to make it interesting.
[09:32] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): i can add it to the portal for start
[09:32] Callipygian Christensen: Tor, I can give you the information to advertise on Seraphim and how to get into the HUDs available to gacha addicts :)
[09:32] Rosie Gray: that's great Calli
[09:32] Tor Karlsvalt: ok, that would be great Calli.
[09:32] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): yes interesting,
[09:33] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe we even have Gacha Addicts!
[09:34] Mizou (mizou.vavoom) is hiding under the table
[09:34] Lilith Ivory: I really hope this store will fill soon and get used a lot
[09:35] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): the only items we can't add are houses
[09:35] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): and i have some to sell
[09:35] Rosie Gray: not sure if Tor mentioned it or not, but one of the reasons to have this was to create some traffic down here, where Cadence has set up her club
[09:35] Callipygian Christensen: why not Mizou?
[09:35] Lilith Ivory: you can always box them Mizou
[09:35] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): would they fit inside the shop?
[09:35] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): ahh of course
[09:36] Callipygian Christensen: If you are limiting to 10LI, most items will need to be boxed anyway
[09:36] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): wasnt thinking
[09:36] Pip Torok: how about this as a slogan "Come to the only democratic Gacha Store in SL"? ...
[09:36] Tor Karlsvalt: yeah, you could box houses.
[09:36] Lilith Ivory: lol
[09:36] Rosie Gray: there is a gacha script and gacha machine on the MP that is free
[09:36] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): yes
[09:36] Rosie Gray: so you could make your own gacha for it Mizou
[09:36] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): oh? better look that up
[09:37] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): do you mean we could have a gatcha machine inside the gatcha resale shop?
[09:37] Rosie Gray: I don't know... what do you say Tor?
[09:38] Tor Karlsvalt: I donno. I suppose we could. But then every shop owner would want one maybe.
[09:38] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): yes but would that not attract traffic?
[09:38] Lilith Ivory: well it would need to be own creations to be put into a machine like this
[09:38] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): of course
[09:38] Pip Torok: traffic possibly but it cd be passing trade...
[09:39] Callipygian Christensen: ere are in resale areas: creators doing sets of gacha, but also sellers who fill them with a random selection of items from many creators
[09:39] Tor Karlsvalt: Well my limit was just 10 LI per seller. I really had not planned on policing what was put out as long as it stayed out of the isles.
[09:39] Callipygian Christensen: *there are two ways gacha machines show up in resale areas..
[09:39] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): ah ok Calli
[09:39] Rosie Gray: the initial idea was that this was nice for any citizen to be a part of, because even non-creators can have stuff for resale
[09:40] Tor Karlsvalt: ok, well then If you have a machine go for it.
[09:40] Tor Karlsvalt: WE could put the machines up against the wall too
[09:40] Tor Karlsvalt: or out in the covered area too
[09:40] Rosie Gray: we are of course restricted by the numbers of prims available for this shop
[09:41] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): which is??
[09:41] Tor Karlsvalt: Right now about 200
[09:41] Rosie Gray: so it has to be kept to a reasonable level, so that lots of citizens can be a part of it
[09:41] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): maybe have a limit od prims per seller?
[09:41] Rosie Gray: but Tor had a good idea to also make a kiosk with direct tp's to every retailer's shop in the CDS too
[09:41] Tor Karlsvalt: I was thinking we could start at 10LI,
[09:42] Tor Karlsvalt: That might eat up a few LI too
[09:42] Rosie Gray: yep
[09:43] Tor Karlsvalt: Seems we have 199 LI available now.
[09:43] Callipygian Christensen: well a kiosk promoting can sit outside on public land since its promoting estate wide no?
[09:43] Tor Karlsvalt: I suppose if we need more, we could either move the shop, expand the shop, or add some land someplace to the group in order to get more LI.
[09:44] Tor Karlsvalt: good point Calli
[09:45] Tor Karlsvalt: In any case this will be a service open to all citizens free of charge. CDS will not take any fee or commission.
[09:45] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): nice
[09:45] Tor Karlsvalt: If we get some traffic and generate some interest in CDS then it is a win for everyone.
[09:46] Tor Karlsvalt: And if someone really wants to buy this shop, we can move the market.
[09:47] Rosie Gray: absolutely
[09:47] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): So CDS is well and alive by the sound of it
[09:48] Rosie Gray: the rumours of our demise are greatly exaggerated
[09:48] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[09:48] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): :)
[09:48] Rosie Gray: yes we are in fact doing very well
[09:48] Rosie Gray: always could be better, of course
[09:48] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[09:48] Lilith Ivory: and I am glad to announce we already have 3 candidates who are willing to run for a seat in the 26th RA
[09:49] Tor Karlsvalt: yay!
[09:49] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): yeah!

[09:49] Lilith Ivory: deadline to declare is nov 2 so you all have still time to consider running too
[09:49] Rosie Gray: what is the timeline for the election?
[09:49] Rosie Gray: aah
[09:49] Lilith Ivory: moment

[09:53] Tor Karlsvalt: b
[09:53] Tanoujin Milestone: wb
[09:54] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): wb Tor
[09:54] Ranma Tardis: This means the 22-October meeting of the RA will be the last of the 25th term and I will take a knee
[09:54] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe, an American Football reference.
[09:55] Tor Karlsvalt: Means run out the clock.
[09:55] Ranma Tardis: am an American
[09:55] Rosie Gray: aah... was just going to ask what that meant
[09:55] Pip Torok: me too
[09:56] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[09:57] Lilith Ivory: as I have been asked about that too I would like to mention that by being appointed into the SC Coop has become a forum moderator too automatically
[09:58] Lilith Ivory: and I think it is good to have a moderator who actually has the time to do some moderating
[09:58] Tor Karlsvalt: Good to know.
[09:58] Tor Karlsvalt: He has long been a dedicated student of the forums.
[09:58] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Congrats to Coop
[09:58] Tor Karlsvalt nods
[09:59] Callipygian Christensen: ok..dim sum is calling my name - I'll be around this evening and maybe a bit this afternoon Tor, if you are around
[09:59] Callipygian Christensen: If not, I'll leave you some info in message
[09:59] Lilith Ivory: see you Calli :)
[09:59] Tor Karlsvalt: ok Calli
[09:59] Tor Karlsvalt: see you later maybe.
[09:59] Tanoujin Milestone: bye Calli
[09:59] Rosie Gray: bye Calli
[10:00] Callipygian Christensen: enjoy the day or eveing or whatever everyone :)
[10:00] Pip Torok: tks calli
[10:00] Tor Karlsvalt: Rosie, as the proposal to disband the CDS has been withdrawn, I believe, perhaps the CDS should issue some official statement.
[10:01] Tor Karlsvalt: There has been a bit of a flap in come circles.
[10:01] Tor Karlsvalt: It was discussed on the Calendon chat and I know St. John was informed that we were closing.
[10:02] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): News travels fast
[10:03] Rosie Gray: there was never anything official out in the first place, just a notice through the group announcements
[10:03] Lilith Ivory: not a very good advertisement for CDS I´d say
[10:03] Rosie Gray: and I made another notice through the group announcements to say it wasn't true
[10:03] Tanoujin Milestone: phone , sorry
[10:03] Ranma Tardis: My intent was to shake the tree, it never had the votes to pass and the SC interfered again with the RA
[10:03] Rosie Gray: so yes... Lilith is correct, it's not a good idea to dwell on it
[10:03] Lilith Ivory raises an eyebrow
[10:04] Rosie Gray: lol, or maybe I misunderstood what you meant
[10:04] Lilith Ivory: the SC as a body never told you to withdraw or do anything
[10:04] Rosie Gray: but my thought is that you do not want to emphasize any negativity in your advertiseing
[10:04] Lilith Ivory: and for the record no single member of the SC has the right to speak officially for the whole body
[10:04] Ranma Tardis: that was my impression as LRA
[10:05] Lilith Ivory: of course like many other citizens some memebrs of the SC were not very happy with that proposal and voiced it
[10:06] Tor Karlsvalt: Ok, let's hope people take notice that we are still here. I know CDS has friends in other estates who have already acted on countering the rumors.
[10:06] Lilith Ivory: it is not the job of the SC to approve or disaprove a RA agenda
[10:07] Ranma Tardis: shrugs I announced my intention not to stand for reelection before the "shaking of the tree"
[10:07] Lilith Ivory: we only have to watch it is published in time and there has been enough discussion before there is a vote on something
[10:07] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): should i dd to the welcome page of the portal??
[10:08] Rosie Gray: add what, Miz?
[10:08] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): that we are still alive
[10:08] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[10:08] Lilith Ivory laughs
[10:08] Rosie Gray: lol
[10:08] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): in big bold letters ? lol
[10:08] Rosie Gray: I think that we have a new web design is evidence of that
[10:08] Tor Karlsvalt: We could change our motto, "Old but still kicking!"
[10:08] Rosie Gray: hahah
[10:08] Pip Torok thinks:"must learn the difference between the earth moving and a tree shaking..."
[10:09] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): lol
[10:09] Rosie Gray: what does everyone think about the suggestion on the forums now about giving ourselves a 'nickname'
[10:09] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): touche Pip
[10:09] Rosie Gray: something easier than The Confederation of Democratic Simulators (CDS)
[10:09] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): why not
[10:09] Rosie Gray: which indeed is a mouthful
[10:09] Tor Karlsvalt: hOWLERS?
[10:10] Rosie Gray pokes Tor
[10:10] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): A:LIVE?
[10:10] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[10:10] Pip Torok: good idea but much hangs on th actual name ... e,g, kate's freedonia
[10:10] Lilith Ivory: never ask a german to find a SHORT and nice sounding word :)
[10:10] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[10:10] Tanoujin Milestone: Kaff is nice and short
[10:10] Lilith Ivory: hehhe
[10:10] Ranma Tardis: In Caledon we call the CDS Neufers
[10:11] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): lol
[10:11] Tor Karlsvalt: How about Minervans
[10:11] Tanoujin Milestone: thats nice too
[10:11] Tor Karlsvalt: oh Neufers, hehe
[10:11] Rosie Gray: there are some points brought up on the forum by Kate and Bags that are important to think of
[10:11] Tanoujin Milestone: i like Neufers for the people
[10:11] Pip Torok: make sure its a Short name .. and snappy
[10:11] Rosie Gray: what do you call a person from >>>>>>>>>>>>> is one
[10:12] Tor Karlsvalt: um, I know Coop would like um.... Confederates.
[10:12] Rosie Gray: but also spelling ease, and how it would work with our brand is very important
[10:12] Rosie Gray: I would NEVER go for that suggestion Tor!
[10:12] Rosie Gray: egads
[10:12] Pip Torok: agree strongly Rose
[10:12] Rosie Gray: makes me think of the KKK
[10:12] Lilith Ivory: Owltown
[10:12] Ranma Tardis: ouch!
[10:12] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): haha
[10:13] Shep (shep.titian): agree also ... hell!!!
[10:13] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): The Owls?
[10:13] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): Owl sims
[10:13] Rosie Gray: what would we call people form the Owls... Owlers?
[10:13] Tanoujin Milestone: as if we were a soccer team, - no!
[10:13] Rosie Gray: right!
[10:13] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): joking
[10:13] Rosie Gray: it needs to have a bit of dignity ;)
[10:13] Tanoujin Milestone: ;9 sure

[10:13] Shep (shep.titian): Tylluan is welsh for owl .. grin
[10:13] Tor Karlsvalt: I donno, I am an Alpine Meadower. hehe
[10:14] Tor Karlsvalt: I don't know what you all are. hehe
[10:14] Lilith Ivory: I wish asterix the galliard was better known in the US as those comics remind me a lot on CDS
[10:14] Rosie Gray: really there is a problem if we introduce another moniker, in that we would have to integrate a new name into everything
[10:14] Tanoujin Milestone chuckles
[10:15] Tor Karlsvalt: Actually Neufer is probably good.
[10:15] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): really Lil?? lol
[10:15] Tor Karlsvalt: it has tradition behind it.
[10:15] Lilith Ivory: don´t yu think Mizou?
[10:15] Lilith Ivory: I always see us gathering nicely hidding our fish when a visitor waks by
[10:15] Tanoujin Milestone: want a fish? ;)
[10:15] Mizou (mizou.vavoom): hmmm yes some cionnection
[10:15] Lilith Ivory grins
[10:15] Rosie Gray: fish?
[10:16] Tanoujin Milestone: oh, the fish shop gets it fresh ffrom paris, while they are at the coast
[10:16] Ranma Tardis: まぐど?
[10:16] Shep (shep.titian): islanders?

Re: Gov't Question Hour Sun Oct 16 - Transcript

Post by Kate Amdahl »

I object! This transcript mentions Shep's "amazing outfit," but there are no pictures! RA, can you make a law that whenever someone mentions how great someone's outfit is in an official CDS transcript that they have to take a picture and include it? This is important stuff.

I loved some of the naming thoughts. Off to post in that discussion.
