OK, so the LZ is working out a few after go live issues, but this was something which I was not expecting. But this is not really that uncommon, as this was the type of work that I was doing at Sun Microsystem, the determination of a course of action after a flaw was found on the build during the Beta testing and after Go Live. It was frustrating as hell at times, but I truly loved that job.
Here is the rumor wire announcement I saw:
Zephyr Fox: no TGIF?
SirGreendown: no
Zephyr Fox: darn
SirGreendown: I can say though today was a lot less dramatic than the past few days have been
Tila Boccaccio: thats good
Sovia: heya zephyr TGIF resumes next wk the 17
Zephyr Fox: And I was looking forward to chatting with the Game Bot.
SirGreendown: guess what Tomorrow we will have a party
SirGreendown: and Game Bot will be here
Sovia: The T.G.I.F party on Fridays will resume in Alpha, AWExpo Club @ 11pm vrt,. Starting July 17th, 2015
SirGreendown: exactly what Sovia just said
Zephyr Fox: Ok thanks
OklahomaTraveler: stupid bot
SirGreendown: on Disneyland's 60th Anniversary
SirGreendown: July 17th
Sovia: also Zephyr tomorrow July 11th, at 11pm vrt will be the AWExpo Celebration Party - held at the AWExpo Club in Alpha ( Rated PG), Music, Dancing, Great Friends along with Acronyms Game -
Zephyr Fox: Ok I'll try to be there, but I may be too tired to chat much.
Zephyr Fox: Hey how often do you get a peacekeeper to SHOUT at the LZ?
Zephyr Fox: I saw that yesterday
SirGreendown: MeL is Peacekeeper 32 btw
SirGreendown: you referred to her as 2 people on your blog
Zephyr Fox: Ok I don't remember the number but I do remember that she was there. And glad to see someone look at the blog thanks.
Alphaworldian: what blog
Zephyr Fox: my web page on the contacts
SirGreendown: it was so quiet, Grenden wasn't even on today
SirGreendown: even Veger was offline for a short period
OklahomaTraveler: I don't understand whac-a-mole.. isn't that cruelty to animals?
Tila Boccaccio: lol
Raven.: its a virus
Zephyr Fox: Ok I really like a festive friday night and this is kinda bumming me out.
Tila Boccaccio: aweee
Raven.: you grt infected ad tskr it put on small animals
Raven.: it originated in a gma rcall ed farmvile
Raven.: Nach is a carrier
Raven.: B
SirGreendown: Nash Grier is a carrier of a disease
SirGreendown: oh how am I not surprised
Raven.: my niiddle name is pestulence
SirGreendown: I looked at Celebrity Disses and it was mostly towards Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift
SirGreendown: which makes perfect sense I can see why
I then got a telegram from OklahomaTraveler:
Telegram from OklahomaTraveler, sent Fri Jul 10, 2015 9:39 PM:
Come to the games area if you want.. it'll give something to do..and I can get games tested. ;)
I attempted to find the games area at the LZ map and went to AWGames thinking that this is what OT was talking about.
» Immigration Officer: Welcome to AWGames! Head north to the Games Portal to play a game anytime!
(whisper from) [KeeperBot]: Hello Zephyr Fox, welcome to AWGames.
I then spent a few minutes looking around for OklahomaTraveler and tried the bowling game but it seemed to be broken:
Zephyr Fox: OK hellow
Zephyr Fox: bob3
Zephyr Fox: bob3
Zephyr Fox: bob3
Zephyr Fox: bob3
Zephyr Fox: bob3
After about 20 min. I went back to the LZ and was about to chime in when my phone rang. Someone was stopping by in a few minutes to look at my unrented room.
» Immigration Officer: Welcome to Alphaworld, the most AWESOMEST virtual world on the Interweb.
SirGreendown: today was a massive relief, I don't remember any major drama occurring today
LizLiz: time for sleep for me LOL
OklahomaTraveler: I got four minutes. LOL
SirGreendown: the only Rumors I've started
Sovia: haha me to liz but usually when im suppose to sleep i stay awake haha
SirGreendown: are directed at Celebrities
OklahomaTraveler: I heard that Liz is sexy.. ;)
LizLiz: I'm always backwards too
OklahomaTraveler: LOL
This prospective tenant then sucked up about 3 hours of my time, and did have a little conversation about the weather and sports:
SirGreendown: I made a build of Madonna texting during a movie
LizLiz: haha cute
SirGreendown: and the say command with that now infamous quote
SirGreendown: "It's for business... ENSLAVER!"
LizLiz: I don't believe in slavery
SirGreendown: that Madonna said when she was caught texting during a screening of 12 Years A Slave
LizLiz: it was a good movie telling the truth but I htted it anyway
LizLiz: hated it
SirGreendown: oh and she got in trouble for texting during a performance of Hamilton now
SirGreendown: so she is a repeat offender
LizLiz: big deal I'm surprised she didn't make babies at the same time/
SirGreendown: she was banned from Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas the first time she got in trouble for that
LizLiz: she is so rude anyway
SirGreendown: her Queen of Pop title says it all
LizLiz: no need for all that so called freedome, that's why kids are getting into trouble now
SirGreendown: she acts the part
LizLiz: yup Sir greendown
SirGreendown: Madonna is 56 years old
LizLiz: like a what? yeah for sure
SirGreendown: she isn't a kid
LizLiz: yes but she influences young people
LizLiz: she doesn't act her age
SirGreendown: I see a lot of comments in her new videos saying mean stuff about her being old
LizLiz: well she is almost as old as me and I'm ancient
SirGreendown: she is a couple decades past her prime but if guys can still be popular singers when they are older so can she
LizLiz: well yes for her talent but not to decieve
LizLiz: I culd look like 25 if I wore the right make-up
SirGreendown: people have no issues with male singers when they grow old, yet people have an issue with Madonna because of her age
SirGreendown: that isn't right
LizLiz: it's ok but people should know she isn't a youngster
SirGreendown: everyone shows she is 56
LizLiz: yup
LizLiz: I actually lilke her as a performer
SirGreendown: what I'm saying is people criticize her performing because of her age when people never judge older male singers, there is some sexism against women there
LizLiz: I don't jusge her as a performer but she would look better without alltrhe make-up
Zephyr Fox: I wander if she will ever do another movie? Like Evita?
LizLiz: just a little bit less would make her more attractive
LizLiz: that was good
LizLiz: only she couldplay Evita like she did
LizLiz: isn't she from New York?
LizLiz: Madonna I mean?
Zephyr Fox: I think she was from michigan
LizLiz: the GZ is really dressed up nice now eh?
LizLiz: could be it's been a while since I read her Bio'
Zephyr Fox: I think the new Expo is really well done. Very good work and much talent.
LizLiz: YES
SirGreendown: Sovia is in Human form
SirGreendown: Smaug is in Dragon form
Then I got an AWK phone call and resumed the chat after that:
Zephyr Fox: Hey SirGreendown didn't some ML baseball pitcher loose 2 fingers messing around with fireworks last week?
SirGreendown: it wasn't baseball pitchers
Shannon...: well, glad you have A/C to use, Charley
SirGreendown: it was NFL football players
CharleyO: Couldn't hardly live without it, Shannon.
Zephyr Fox: Was any a QB?
Shannon...: yeah me either
CharleyO: i don't do good with too muvh heat these days.
SirGreendown: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/nfl-players-reportedly-lose-fingers-fireworks-accidents-32322818 both were Defensive Players
SirGreendown: Jason Pierre-Paul and CJ Wilson
Shannon...: sometimes hot weather can make me feel sick
Zephyr Fox: Rather harsh if you have to use your hands for your career.
CharleyO: Right, Shannon ... I much rahter have cold weather.
Zephyr Fox: not so bad though if your an LB
Earendil37: i like the food tv channel
Zephyr Fox: but still you need to be able to intercept the ball
SirGreendown: a LB tackles and sacks are EVERYTHING
SirGreendown: so yeah you need hands for that
Zephyr Fox: kada lowers there draft prospects don't you think?
SirGreendown: Justin Houston lead the NFL in sacks last year, that's who my favorite team's best Defensive Player is, OMG we need to pay him seriously
SirGreendown: obviously I am a Kansas City Chiefs fan
SirGreendown: our defense is better than basically all others
zombiefan: the bill cosby thing has been a big surprise. Never knew he had certain issues
SirGreendown: we have a good offense, lots of elite players
SirGreendown: Jamaal Charles, Knile Davis, that's not one, but TWO Top 10 Runningbacks
SirGreendown: Travis Kelce, AMAZING Tight End
Shannon...: I heard about Bill Cosby on the news, zombie
SirGreendown: and Jeremy Maclin, really great Wide Recveiver
SirGreendown: and Anthony Sherman is the best Fullback in the NFL
SirGreendown: Ben Grubbs is a 2-time Pro Bowl Offensive Guardf
zombiefan: i been hearing stuff about bill cosby too
SirGreendown: not only him, but Jared Fogel too
Zephyr Fox: Didn't you have a kinda shrine for KC at your build?
Earendil37: oh omar sharif is now dead
SirGreendown: I'm gonna build Arrowhead Stadium
SirGreendown: and later Kauffman Stadium
Shannon...: bet that would take a long time to build
Zephyr Fox: wow and are you going to put in some mover action?
SirGreendown: I started Arrowhead last October, it was like the first thing I started in Phoenix City
SirGreendown: it still has a long ways to go
SirGreendown: and is stalled because the OY and Teen GZ are my #1 priority
Zephyr Fox: I know that you put in some effort on the dance floor at the AWteen. Nice work.
Earendil37: sir green and because fire in western canada in usa you have a blood moon
SirGreendown: I know James lives out in Alberta
SirGreendown: now I'm really worried
Earendil37: in quebec i'm ok

Earendil37: western usa the weather is hot
Earendil37: and for estern the weather is cold
CharleyO: Cold in the East of USA?
Zephyr Fox: it was not to bad here in Las Vegas today only 90F
Earendil37: yes i read this
CharleyO: it was 98 here in NC today .
CharleyO: I wish it was cold ... lol
Zephyr Fox: It got tough breathing 110F air last week. But lucky that there was not a record set.
Earendil37: sir green do you like alex jones?
Smaug: jeeze only in the mid 70's here yesterday
SirGreendown: no, crackpot conspiracy theorist, him
CharleyO: Hi Smaug
Earendil37: yes sir green lol
Smaug: hi Charley

CharleyO: how you been doing?
Smaug: not bad
Smaug: u?
CharleyO: Hi jann970

SirGreendown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hPMmzKs62w
SirGreendown: that's what I'm listening to
SirGreendown: notice Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, and Kanye West in that video
Here I fell asleep at the keyboard. I finally woke up then went back to my build to end up falling asleep at the keyboard again. I then went back to the LZ when I awoke in the morning and had a very good chat with SirGreendown:
Zephyr Fox: hello everyone
SirGreendown: hi Zephyr Fox
Zephyr Fox: Hi SirGreendown
SirGreendown: I was talking to myself for nearly a half hour
SirGreendown: that's still 6 hours less than Silly Putty
Zephyr Fox: I actually fall asleep at the key board sometimes. Awful.
Zephyr Fox: I'll try to be at the party tonight.
SirGreendown: yeah definitely, I'll be there too
SirGreendown: the Game bot is aalready there
SirGreendown: hi Game Bot
Zephyr Fox: Hey can I have a game bot in my maze?
SirGreendown: 11:39:06 AM VRT [Game Bot]: Glad to see you, SirGreendown
SirGreendown: I9 think if you pay for bot rights you probably can
SirGreendown: but I don't use bots personally
SirGreendown: when you leave AW the bot goes away and a build could be broken'
Zephyr Fox: I want to do things that are currently free so I can tell others how.
SirGreendown: that and they cost money
Zephyr Fox: It is better if you can show newbies how they can work in Alpha for free.
SirGreendown: yeah definitely
Zephyr Fox: wow musical notes.
Zephyr Fox: very Kool
SirGreendown: the musical note textures were brought here from AWTeen, AWTeen has had them for years
SirGreendown: AWFX originaslly had the bmg textures
SirGreendown: AWTeen has had them for a long time
SirGreendown: AlphaWorld just got them
Zephyr Fox: I was just looking at the PE. Very Nice.
SirGreendown: they are for Particle Emitters
SirGreendown: there are a couple hundred PE textures in the bmg sets
Zephyr Fox: I was chatting with MeL and she said that she was able to get I think Ken to up load a bunch of textures for the first time in many years.
SirGreendown: the new AWTeen texture yard has all the ones available in AWTeen
SirGreendown: you mean Rick
Zephyr Fox: Ya Rick that's right
SirGreendown: Rick uploaded new textures for the first time in a few years yes
SirGreendown: I also asked him to upload them to the AWTeen OP as well
SirGreendown: we'll see if he does
Zephyr Fox: Hey would you be will to do a beta run through of my maze level 1 at the end of the month?
SirGreendown: yeah
Zephyr Fox: So far it is base on the Maze Runner, but the next level will be Monte Python themed
Zephyr Fox: then Wille Wonka
Zephyr Fox: then Toys
SirGreendown: I think right now, I want to work on my Grand Teleport Hall, so I'll be in AWTeen
Zephyr Fox: then Perhaps Star trek
Zephyr Fox: not asking for help. just a run through eval of the first level to flush out flaws
SirGreendown: I know
Zephyr Fox: Each level will have a different theme with different Maze monsters.
SirGreendown: I'll see you later
Zephyr Fox: See ya thanks for the chat
SirGreendown: that maze sounds really cool
Here is a photo of Club Alpha at the LZ:
I will put some time into the planning website this morning as I wanted to do last night.
