  1. GOHA's six regions used to mean I had a winter spot for 3 months. That's now gone.

    Hello Holocluck It's definitely not gone! In fact, based on some great suggestions during the week, we are starting a project to add more fun stuff. One great addition is already underway. The maze will be coming back out where the ski jump is now, with the ski jump moving to Breakaway (the sim to the west) so it can hold more people. We're going to continue many regular activities, and hope you can stop by again.

    Thanks again to everyone who attended, the fantastic Winterfest planning crew, GOHA, and Linden Lab for all the fun!

  2. Hey Morphy I had a lot of comments on the maze and it was quite popular, so my intention is to find a permanent place for it out there. The area behind the rink wasn't ideal for long term. We're doing some remodeling of the areas based on feature requests and suggestions. For instance, the ski jump is extremely popular, and we're going to move it to an area that can accommodate more people (the sim it's currently on, Offsides, is a homestead connecting to the mainland). There's some other fantastic suggestions we're looking into seriously and expect to add in the near future.

  3. Winterfest is wrapping up tonight. Thanks to all who attended and helped celebrate the season! The best part was meeting so many SL residents. I don't always get out much and forget sometimes how many great folks there are around. I'm glad to have had the chance to meet so many of you and hope you all enjoyed it.

    I want to publicly thank some folks who helped make this a fantastic time.

    Winterfest organizers Katia Ixtab, Ashlene McMinnar, Marjan Tomba, Dyz Warburton, Kalita Magic, Tangle Giano, Lobo Rodriquez, Janieke Blanchard, and Anhayla Lycia for helping organize the many activities such as the Ski Jump, Scavenger/Puck Hunt, Snowman Building Contest, musical acts, scheduling, new player training, and building at the sims.

    A big thanks also goes out to Linden Lab and particularly Blondin, Courtney and Delby Linden for this opportunity. We had a blast. Special thanks also to Michael and Torley Linden who assisted with some sim troubles. The Linden/Resident Snowball Fight was a highlight of the week and I thank all who attended, I did not even catch all the names.

    We had an incredible lineup of fantastic live musicians. Thank you for adding so much to the experience: Mankind Tracer, Noma Falta, Guitar Zane, Andreus Gustafson, The Follow, Reggie Sunset, Jimmyt49 Dukes, CCTV Giant, Tamra Sands, XanderNichting Writer, Skye Galaxy, Jean Munro, Keiko Takamura, Phemie Alcott, CraigLyons Writer, TwinGhost Ronas, Louis Volare, Dann Numbers, Lance Rembrandt, Buckley Moonwall, Maximillion Kleene (original GOHArian!), David Csiszer, Mimi Carpenter, and Edward Kyomoon.

    Thanks to Marjan Tomba for the popular new ski jump, and Lancelot Skytower for the fantastic balloon tours across the sims.

    Live DJ Bonfire parties were a great relaxing end to several evenings and I want to thank Ashlene McMinnar and Merrik Caproni, and DJ Mac Ronas from The Underground (my favorite club in SL!) for providing these.

    The Puckettes cheerleaders and manager Kayden Piers for fantastic performances and for coming out to cheer on the teams during the Open Hockey games.

    Lobo Rodriquez for organizing a fantastic All-Star's Hockey Game, Merrik Caproni for making uniforms, and TreetTV for yet another professional filming job.

    Thanks to all the sports managers who came to the Meet-and-Greet to help promote sports inside SL. Hope you will all keep in touch!

    Most of all, for all GOHA members, thanks for all the time you spent helping to greet and help visitors, assisting me with various projects, and participating in all the events. You guys agreeably put off playoffs for this event, came and helped, and once again showed that great team spirit.

    The Chamonix area will retain current activities and add even more to the winter activities. We had great suggestions of additions we could make from residents and appreciate that. Hope to see you again in the community!

    The snowball fight today was so packed that we all briefly killed a sim! So, we've adjusted the plans to actually hold it on 3 sims. For tomorrow's snowball fight at 8AM please try the following SLurls. Try using the map as well, because there were numerous scattered fights going on all over.
