Derrick Linden in SSPE226, to the right of Porthole and below Beluga. Heads up! (He's with 2 invisible people.)

Every time I get close enough to kick him in the ankles he moves away.

Yup, currently in Porthole. But, he's too thin!

There's an invisible person in Porthole - s/he should be immediately to my left (west) out in the water, but the green dot doesn't show in the local map. Stay alert!

Re-sent it! About 6:30PM SL time.

Something's gone very wrong with Bellisseria! Just kidding! Saw this upside-down house 'attraction' on the Brighton (UK) seafront today, and thanks to my recent househunting obsession couldn't help but think of you all (but especially Sugary Bard and her broken house in Edgar). Best of luck to all who'll be trying for properties in Beluga Sound and Porthole (sigh - I really do love Porthole) on Friday!

I've just sent out a lot of invitations in-world to the Belli Home Hoppers group. If I've hit some of you a second time, my apologies - I couldn't find my list from the first tranche of invitations. Please don't feel compelled to join if you're not interested! (From this point on, I will only send invitations to those people who explicitly ask me to.) Good luck grabbing homes on Thursday and/or Friday!

Congrats to the new Gangwayers (and anyone who is newly inhabiting a home elsewhere)! Came home intending to log on and keep an eye open for invisible Lindens, only to discover that it was an early release. Those of you still trying - in my opinion the best (Porthole!) is being saved for last! (yes, Beluga Sound is really nice, too!) Keep trying!

I expect the remaining regions in this area will go this week, especially as Porthole and Beluga Sound are both so small.

Well, just as I was taking a photo from the front someone rode by on a horse. So there is some fauna in the neighborhood. (Pun not intended.)

View of your place's back garden.

No, they appeared when I did, after securing houses; 5 minutes earlier there was only 1 person there.

Where? In sspe264 next to Porthole?

Will have a look and attach a photo here. Still looking! Found it - on suburban-looking street with no view of the water, but interesting back garden (nicer than mine). View looking from the front door.

Looking at the 23 people currently in Walrus Beach, I don't see any familiar names

And, coincidentally, that invisible person is gone!

Just got one in Walrus Beach! View from front door. Will stick with it - Porthole's close enough!

Just got and released an abandon in Kirbee. Belli showed up as the first choice in the menu. Waiting for re-start next time

25 minutes later, the invisible person is still in the same spot in SSPE264

That's not how databases work - if there were a connection between the two logins, then as soon as you secured a house you could/would be notified in-world. Likewise, if the databases were connected you'd see in-world if someone replied to one of your comments here. A system where all these different facets of SL were linked would be overly cumbersome to operate, with the potential for a lot more to go wrong. (See the interconnection of FB and IG for an example with recent outages.)

There's an 'invisible person' in SSPE264, to the left of Porthole and below Limevale. Can see the dot almost next to me on the large region map, but nothing appears on the local one.

But you still need to click on the link on the web page to teleport to your particular house before abandoning it. As long as you're somewhere in-world, yes, that'll save you a minute or so. But my point is that you gain no advantage by being in the particular region you want in case it's released.

Although it does help if someone is in a region that is about to go offline as a klaxon sounds along with the restart warning. I've never heard a klaxon during a normal restart.

My response just a moment ago to someone else's post: I still don't understand why people think being in a region as it's released gives them an edge. I'm here flying from one region to the next just to see if there's any activity that would serve as an alert to an imminent release. The login to be in-world would be quite separate from the login on the house registration page.
