Since I'm pretty new....I do see people releasing on alts....to go for something else...or hold a property and create/upgrade an alt to find something better. The wonderful thing about Second Life is we can each enjoy it how we want because you can create your own reality space in a virtual world. It is a beautiful thing and pray that everyone finds what they are seeking in Second Life. And more importantly.... I pray that each of you remains healthy & safe as the world "battles" COVID-19.

Nika Talaj Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) Pretty Bingo was also released this afternoon. I believe all parcels are taken currently, but there are many folks in the region looking around, so some may become abandons. (erm, the region is named Bingo, not Pretty Bingo, lol) Edited April 10, 2020 by Nika Talaj 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) I just caught and released the last one available in Bugaboo. It went pretty fast! ETA: Oops, I take that back, I see a couple more available (possibly abandoned). Edited April 10, 2020 by Sylvia Tamalyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika Talaj Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) I don't know why folks would abandon Bugaboo, it's a great region. I just spent a try on it now, but got a different region. It's pretty, but also, from anyplace in Bugaboo, you can "jump" a boat to either the water in the loop it's on, or in the BIG LAKE to its east. That lake is quite sail-able. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, it has a rez zone in it too, so you don't even have to save the LI for your boat to rez on your parcel. OOps, looking at the map again, I don't think Bugaboo has a rez zone. Edited April 10, 2020 by Nika Talaj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they the little islands here and there that will be converted later to re zones? I've yet to see one in the log home area, I've been looking around quite a bit there this last week. Do you know where there is one ? Cheers Edited April 10, 2020 by Ethereal Silvercloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika Talaj Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 They are really hard to spot on the map. If you look at those 6-region river loops, there is always a rez zone in the upper rightmost region; so I'm sure there is one on Dallarna, but I would be surprised if there is one on Bugaboo. Jon Ree has already put out a notecard listing rez zones in "East Bellisseria"; that is, LogLand. Look in Bellisseria Citizens group notices. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither was on water, and this alt I'm playing with is looking for one of those great lake spots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eirynne Sieyes Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Four alts hunting mercilessly for days and not getting anything special (i.e. water). And then BAM! It was inspiring! Two of them got beautiful riverside log homes in Woodchuck and Windsock on the same day. Fear not weary traveler! Your homes exist and are looking for you! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did this happen during daytime SLT releases or are they abandons? I'm trying to figure out when is the best time for my alt to be out and about. She's been striking out at night for the most part.

Marianne Little Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) When Patch Linden started his update of available homes, I think it was 47 Traditionals there and maybe 10 Victorians. I should have taken a screenshot, but I did not know he would only edit the single post. So it is no way to go back. I think those Trads and Vics were the "tail" of those who abandoned when Log Land opened. Now that has cooled down, and it is mostly alts who play GoH. Those have already abandoned their Traditionals and Victorians. I am sort of happy with my Log cabin. I do not think I can use another model of them, since they have their large windows facing the mailbox. I do not like that. The last and big cabin has so many rooms, I do not know what to do with them. Very many Log cabins around the loop lakes have this setup: Road - mailbox -water. The side of the house facing water is the most boring side for 3 house types. So I have Overlook, the only model that I can use with the setup. That is not very different from the Traditionals, where I prefer Winchester. I think that the landscape are darker and more depressing around the cabins, but that can be a reflection of my RL mood. I should be careful and don't abandon now, because I may regret it later. I regret that I abandoned Humansville very much. That is the only regret I have. It was a stupid move. At the moment I have one Traditional in Hammond Park, one Victorian in Red Hook and one Log cabin in Artagan. If I decide to downgrade, it will be the alt who has the Artagan cabin.

Bugaboo has some of the best Log cabins locations on the strip of land between the loop lake and the big lake. It is so open and fresh there. The part of land that border the great lake is too narrow for new cabins, so it is not going to be houses blocking the view later.* Only trees and other landscaping. *I can't be 100% sure of course. But it looks very narrow. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get one of those few homes on the strip, alas, but at least I got to try for one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
