Last night was Jasper's Haifisch's
one-year rez-day (like a birthday for the account). We were supposed to
kick off things at the Velvet at 8 PM SL time, but a "hop-scotch"
restart was going around the grid. Every so often, the Lindens restart
the servers that host various sims (regions). So the conversation went
like this:
Isa: Yeah, I think there's going to be a restart soon.
Me: Do we know when?
Jasper: No idea.
Haedon: They're going to make it a surprise.
Me: Well if that don't beat all.
SYSTEM: The region you were connected to is currently unavailable.
Thirty minutes later, Jasper gets everyone on a beach to at least start
the party and then we'll rove from there. I only played for an hour
(precisely!) because we did a sort of "Velvet DJ Sampler" last night.
