Sylvia Tamalyn Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 There is a fourth parcel (in Maddequet) that is purple on the map, so keep an eye on that one as well if you are looking for Bay City auctions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabid Cheetah Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Welp, we each need to frequently evaluate the cost/benefit analysis of "owning" virtual "land". For some, it's priceless. And that's just fine. Let them have their expensive eccentricities. For others, it's as alien a concept as blowing real money on NFT's. Personally, I recently (well, two months ago) re-evaluated all the money I've blown on Linden's "land", something I never once touched with my own hands in the fifteen years I paid for it, and realized I could've instead bought a heck of a lot of groceries in the real world with that money, or several months of a really for real roof over my head. So I quit. I don't miss the virtual world one bit. All I miss is all that money I wasted on it. So yeah, for me, I DID act silly with my money vis-â-vis virtual "land" these past fifteen years. Did I have fun? Sure. But was it worth it? N.O. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet by tomorrow morning they'll get bid up an order of magnitude though It's unpredictable. I've seen some Bay City auctions go for amazingly low (for Bay City) prices, although that's rare for sure. It's all down to how many land flippers are interested in the parcel, and I don't know if Brewster will draw much attention. Those parcels are all on the west side (G rated), so will probably pull lower bids than parcels in the M regions, so there's another factor.

The all 3 parcels were around L$8K, each, at 9:40pm EST. Less than 10 minutes later and all 3 are north of L$22K each. And the auction still has a bit over 40 hours left. 😲 Edited February 18, 2022 by BrainFart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say they eventually go for L$50/m2(boxed in/barely protected)- L$92/m2(waterside).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin Jerrold Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Oh I'd so love to own part of Bay City. 100.002L$ for 912sqm Edited February 20, 2022 by kevin Jerrold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 If you want to own a parcel there to keep it for your own use, I saw one of the auction parcels for sale this morning for less than that amount. If you are hoping to buy in order to sell it for a profit, well.... there is a lot of yellow on the map there already. Parcels often take a long time to sell there, so it's not an ideal place for land flipping unless you have plenty of time to wait it out. It's not a "quick profit" type of place, generally speaking. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedric Brown Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Again, for people with money its a very affordable hobby. It gives them joy and maybe they profit a little. ...Now, I got a kick out of a live stream on youtube today, the Draxtor channel. He and another SL resident were celebrating their rez days by walking in-world, from one home to the other's home.. Might have been 15 regions or so. Just goofing off, observing mainland. Nothing expensive needed. Made me appreciate second life. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ineffable Mote Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) Once again, it's time for the annual Hot Bay City Nights. This weekend, with main events being scheduled Sunday. All invited and welcome. The pageant is also open to all avatars, be it women, men, or not even human. Wear what you like, but vintage clothing(1940-1965) is preferred, including for the swimwear contest. And we all know beauty isn't just about looks, so there are pageant style questions for entrants as well. Should you win, how you choose to use your role in the best city by the Bay is up to you.

I recently bought land in Bay City (finally giving in to a long smoldering obsession with all the early SL sims) and want to get involved in community life! But I noticed the BC Alliance group was closed enrollment. I also looked for signs of a rumble but guess I did it too late in the day both times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
