    From Patch Linden inworld:

    The inspiration was German, specifically prototyped after the village of Helen, GA in the northeast Georgia mountains ...

     

    I googeled Helen Georgia and it is not German but what Americans imagine to be "German" - a sort of Disneyland version.

    I cannot understand why they didn't model these Chalets after REAL German (Bavarian) or Swiss or Austrian houses instead of making an imitation of an imitation.

    They don't need to travel there, just look in the web: if you google "chalet" you get masses of them. The loghomes resemble them more than these buildings.

    Just noticed the names, found 4 different types so far

    Matterhorn
    Alpenrose
    Reizend
    Edelweiss

    Funny selection of names!

    Being German I look at this "German style" with a bit different eyes. Anyway Matterhorn is a mountain, Alpenrose and Edelweiß are flowers, all of them found in Bavaria or the Alps in generall ... but why "Reizend"?

    You would write that with a small letter as it is not a noun but an adjective, meaning something like lovely or charming. Noone would name his house "Reizend" even if he thought it to be so

    Straight from the horses moth .... or rather the mouses ... ;)

    ...[05:26]  Selina Brandenburg: Any news about the Stilts?
    ...
    [05:27] Patch Linden: No, have you heard anything?
    ....
    [05:27]  Selina Brandenburg: No or I would not ask
    ....
    [05:27]  Selina Brandenburg: So another day of WAITING
    ....
    [05:28]  Patch Linden: Oh, I haven't heard either....
    [05:28]  Patch Linden: My best guess is it's going to be more than a days wait though  ;)

    ...


    [05:30]  Patch Linden: The release will be so big, that I do not thing people will have an issue with getting a home like last time.... at least not initially until we run out again.

     

    ...

    [05:38]  Patch Linden: The release will go like prior recent large scale release, all the regions will be tossed into the pool, from there Skynet takes over and we have no idea what will come out as it chews through the queue

    ...

    The trads popping up today are good ones! I've caught two on the water so far, one in Passwall and one in Wood. I'm almost tempted to click that camper, it might be the best one ever! 😂

    Well now the Stilts are coming nearer they throw their pearls on the market again to get ready. I decided NOT to pick up any more stuff even if it lasts some more days. I have three VERY good Traditionals and a VERY good Victorian - all on the seashore and VERY unlikely to be topped - so Vic and Trad are done with. Loghomes and Campers are not for me so only a very good Houseboat (better than the one I have in Sandflea) could make me spend my tries.

    And when the stilts come there will be Houseboats too ... better than most of the old ones.

    I put an alt on watchpost and go about my business in RL. Every full hour I look what she sees or doen't yet see.

    As long as we cannot even zoom into the stilt regions or fly over them we will certainly not find them available at the landpage.

    Also she has the Belli- Chat open which I scan every full hour for the word "Patch" or "release" ... I must keep to that full hour for otherwise I tend to checking every five minutes or so ;)

    PS: just now she got hollered at "... run for aborean ..." or so. Faraday has restarted so she fled home in terror.

    ...If things go really well on Monday, maybe Patch & team will muscle through and find a window for a release in the 1st 3 days of the week, or maybe LL will decide it's best to wait.  If they are not able to release the stilts next week, they may decide to do it after the Expo, in mid-Dec.  Either way, personally I'd kinda be surprised to see a release Monday. 

    Not that I haven't been surprised by LL before!

    I have been foolish and bought one month of Premium for two of my basis- alts on the 15th because I was SO convinced they would release the stilts then! I have to blame myself for that. Noone (no Linden at least) had promised they would be.  When they really ARE released maybe I have only some days left! - next time I will be more cautious and wait till the first new homes really show up on the LP before I invest in more Premium months.:(
