Please excuse my misbehavior - I will not post in the forums again. I forgot that they are only for a select group as well.

Thank you, Hendrix for that list - my internet provider is Wave in the Pacific northwest area of the US, and is not even on the list. And we pay extra for a higher data usage, so that adds to my frustration. Oh well, I am relearning how to live without SL and the internet - and others will have a better chance at getting good locations if I am not able to be online to claim any when they are released

Put me down as another who is starting to not care about when the log cabins will be released. Or perhaps I am trying to convince myself I do not care as my inworld time has been cut back to almost nothing because of poor internet performance. Even though I live in the center of a town of about 20,000 people in a former first world country my internet is only usable early in the morning and by 5pm goes away completely only to return sometime after I go to bed. This is partly due to load on the system, sub-par cable in our neighborhood and rather heavy internet usage by my husband. But I have an agreement with hubby that he can have the meager bandwidth currently available in the hours when we are still able to connect for his use if I can have first dibs on it once the new homes are released. But if I need to be inworld to know when that is going to happen or to know when to watch for an announcement then I will miss the release if the houses go as quickly as the houseboat or camper releases did, as the official announcement usually does not show up until after the homes have been released. I don't want to hijack this thread - but have been wanting to ask if other people have been experiencing problems with lower quality or non-existent internet connections?

So many windows to wash, too! And all that yardwork was more than my poor internet connection could handle I had 6 coastal Victorians at one point, but after reading articles about hoarding I realized how foolish it is to have more than I can use so have been abandoning them and will keep just one. I have two more to leave sometime but not sure when as my internet connection comes and goes lately.

It was a gorgeous spot, but I have too many houses so I am leaving some so as not to hoard them!

Just released a Victorian in Dimanche http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dimanche/0/173/23 still in maintenance as I type this.

More houses than I want to admit here - because I am using my rl hubby's land alts after he sold a large mainland parcel! The way I decide what to keep and what to leave when a new theme or new regions are released is to make note of which home or homes where I spend the most time. Also I check the performance in the region using Control-Shift-1 keys to help choose the place with the least lag.

Treehouse or mountain chalet would be my guess from this picture - most likely tree house because the view out the window appears to be up in the trees!

What do you mean they have just as much fun?! I think we have way more fun!! Confession of a Reformed Home Hopper/Game of Homes player - I made the mistake of adding up what I spent on premium accounts in the past year, both yearly and monthly - and it was approaching 4 digits when I stopped and deleted that spreadsheet Good news is I don't have to purchase linden dollars for shopping

My alt is going to be leaving this Victorian house with green grassy waterfront on Carville - http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Carville/76/191/23 at 9:10 SLT

Plus LL is using way less scripts in the new Victorian regions, so that helps with script lag! Until people add a lot of items to their parcels....

There are 10 inland regions of Victorians that have not been released yet - they have been releasing regions slowly all day!

Looks like Lockwood released as I was making the list! Most homes seem to be claimed since 7 SLT.

These are the inner regions that have not been released yet, as of 8am SLT today: (not guaranteed to be completely accurate) Wolfsbane Price Lockwood Fjord The Mews Zwischen Pickford Rumpole Abbey Little Sandsbury Queens Arch Middle Totting New Farthing Easton Priory Southkeep Lissome Morgall Plus all the regions that did not have names yesterday.

This - no "helping" unless it is requested. It is really the person behind the avatar that matters.

Thank you If he can't find Jason hair, maybe he could get some Conall hair

Would this be a good place to ask for ideas about where to find men's hair like Jason's? Asking for a friend...

The campers are appealing to me because of the smaller parcels and lower prims, as well as all the beautiful landscaping. There is more space between the parcels and it is less likely people will stuff their land with high prim items full of scripts to lag out the region. There are usually 15-20 houses or houseboats in a region or 20-24 campers, I find campers to be the best deal if you want to avoid lag! When land is abandoned without items being removed, everything is returned to the owner(s) as coalesced objects. These can be rezzed at a sandbox to find individual items.

Something that people from colder climates know and people in warmer places may not understand is that snow is NOT a decoration - it is weather or environment, a fact of nature or whatever you want to call it but it is most definitely not just a decoration.

*$#%&*@FACEBOOK!

Could they be SF Victorians or Seattle craftsman style houses to go with the house lots outlined in SSP602-605?

Looks like it could be - can anyone else see the faint outline of squares along the mysterious pieces? They look rather close together and have 12-18 per region, so maybe urban lots?

Hi neighbors! This is a great parcel and it was abandoned, the house is sideways to the shoreline, but that makes a very private backyard with a nice view of protected land along the coast. Maybe some day I will have a picture to post....

Forum readers who do not post much are on Well Spring, too

My house on Badger Beach http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Badger Beach/198/59/27 will be abandoned at 7:20 - good luck!
