Leora Greenwood Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 The March of the Houseboats continues! This is a 4-Mole Day: Adora, Abnor, Lulabell and Moonstruck are hard at work. So exciting! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leora Greenwood Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 This is fascinating to watch!!! Like standing at a hole in the construction wall watching a building go up, LOL. Lots of houseboat piers being placed and a tunnel between Judge Knott and Alpen Springs being built. All so cool! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hoping this won't turn into another Gaeta I, waiting, waiting for this "shortened" route from the Blake to Sansara and on to Heterocera... What are the Moles waiting on? I'm thinking possibly a connection to a new theme area extending further north and eventually joining Newbrookes? We know the Moles are not allowed to make regions that don't pay for themselves with Linden Homes or something that adds real financial value to SL. Since the Premium Plus people want their 2048 parcels and they're paying considerably more than other accounts to get them, we should expect those to start popping up in the next few months. Where though? I think the void in the middle of the the Newbrooks would be a good spot, since it would put these parcels close to the prized Blake Sea route. Another potential area for a whole new theme would be the space about the Log Homes and to the West of Sakura, which would likely make the Northern Log Home coastal route more likely too. The North-Western Newbrook coast might be able to wait for a bit, since people now have the river between the Chalets and the Newbrooks. On another note: Who else thinks we need names for the River through the Chalets and the River between the Chalets and Newbrook? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If money is the issue, that is, recurring region server expense, I would derez the coastline of Fantasseria and reallocate the servers to the northern coast of the logs, giving residents a very nice water route from old Belli to the Stilts.

I really like "Magellan's Passage" for the passage through the Stilt Homes to the SW, the big river through the Chalets, then the passage up the East coast, the deep channel through the Houseboats, and over the sea to Chrife beach. Mole River sounds good for the passage between the Chalets and Newbrook, though Sleepy River has a nice ring to it, as does AbnorMole Channel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanFroggy Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Mole River, wider than a mile, I'm crossing you in style some day...

diamond Marchant Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 It just occurred to me that SL doesn’t have rivers. Water does not flow or change altitude, excepting stream decor which is not navigable. Lindens favor the terms strait, sea and canal. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leora Greenwood Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Wow, a 6-Mole Day so far; so exciting! LOL, I just discovered that a group of Moles is called a Labour of Moles. Well, they certainly are laboring (labouring?)!! Moving so fast, working so hard, I can't even get them to rez, LOL. No matter; exciting day and week!

Persephone Emerald Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 What's with the hidden islands around the Houseboats? These have been here for months, so it's not a failure of the map in updating. Are these private island regions that LL can hide from neighboring regions so it looks to us like there's just open water there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When no new region is placed in a space, the ghosts can stick around for a long time. You can tell because when you're zoomed in enough to see the region names of active regions, these ones have none. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are in SSPSolomon Reef and SSPThunder Quay. This a really attractive Newbrooke area and style. The region is showing yellow. Is that a slight clue about when it may be available? If I was Premium Plus, what colour would allow a property reservation request? Thank you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4lice Cerise Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 On 7/12/2022 at 1:58 PM, 4lice Cerise said: There is another such void area nearby, between regions SSPObladi and SSPJosie Banks — also as big as 24 regions, but in a very different shape, marking the southeast boundary of Newbrooke. We've seen similar “holes” on the grid elsewhere throughout this fantastic adventure that the Bellisseria development has been. They have been eventually filled up And it eventually was! Thank you, Moles!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
