I was editing my Tiki Pavilions when I received an invite from the God of Rome, mikeD Streeter, to watch the Beast versus Gladiator Tournament at the Colosseum. He teleported me to where he was which at first I didn’t know where because everything was rezzing (appearing/loading) slowly. Well, The Roman Empire sim is a very active sim with lots of people coming in and out so it’s not surprising to experience some lag from time to time. Anyway, I wasn’t able to take snapshots of the Beast versus Gladiator Tournament but, fortunately, a second tournament quickly followed it. It was a standard Free For All Tournament with a total prize of 5,000L$.

Hmmm, wait, it wasn’t just your everyday Free For All Tournament. You see, a big hole was opened in the middle of the Colosseum’s arena floor. Wow! That was the first time I’ve seen it and it was really big. Now, the fighters must fight around the hole’s edge and if they fall in they’re dead, at least for that round. Just like the Platform and the Cage, the Hole adds a another level of difficulty to the fight. If I was down there fighting, it will force me to enable rendering objects which I usually turn off when fighting. Now, fighting with objects visible adds to viewer lag which is bad for me because it lowers my frame rate. […continue reading Fighting Around a Big Hole!]

I was at my place working on a new Candy Cane Rod when I received a rare group notice from The Roman Empire group. The notice was for a Free For All Tournament at the Roman Colosseum. What got me interested in this Free For All was that participating fighters or gladiators will fight inside a Maze. It was the first time I’ve heard of such thing so I went to The Roman Empire sim to check it out.

Before leaving for The Roman Empire sim, I activated my *ROMAN GLADIATOR* tag and wore my Gladiator outfit. In the Colosseum, a huge maze that covers the entire ground of the Arena greeted me. Some Romans were already there but I avoided them by climbing up on the third level of the Colosseum. […continue reading Maze Fighting]

I went to The Roman Empire today to possibly participate in their Free For All fight but I was a bit late because when I got there the fight was already over. I stayed for a few minutes to look around the Colosseum and while I was looking around I saw a female avatar with a pair of really big boobs. I’ve seen hundreds of female avatars with really big boobs but hers were the biggest that I’ve seen so far.

Anyway, this past few days I noticed that I was not getting any Group Notices from The Roman Empire. At first I thought that maybe one of the officers had kicked me out of the group but that was not the case. I am still a member of the group SL Roman Empire. I did notice that my Roman Noble title was no longer in the Title Drop List and that the titles available to me now are *ROMAN GLADIATOR* and *ROMAN PLEBEIAN*.

Today I was able to enter Nippon’s weekly 7Seas Fishing Contest. Fortunately, I wasn’t doing anything important which allowed me to spare sometime to go fishing. I don’t enter that many fishing contests these days because of my new real life work and the competition now is very tough. That’s why I just do most of my fishing at home. In fact, if you come visit my place, 3 Stars and a Sun, you’ll be able to get some 7Seas Fishes and Gears for FREE.

I went immediately to Nippon after getting the group notice. I was in such a haste that I was not able to change to my fishing outfit. I went there wearing my Gladiator outfit complete with DCS Meter and swords. The only thing I wore when I got there was my Phantom Fishing Rod and to make it more weirder, I drew my Hellfire sword and kinda used it like a fishing rod. So, I was in Nippon in my Gladiator outfit with my DCS meter and Roman tag active fishing with my Hellfire sword. LOL! […continue reading Fishing at Nippon (11/09/2008)]

Last week after raiding the land called Scythia, the King of Medieval England returned home to find his Castle in flames. The King and the citizens of Medieval England can do nothing except watch the flames as it engulfs the entire Castle. The flames were so big that it can be seen at a very far distance, even as far a the wharf.

If my understanding is correct, the flames were started by Scythians who sneaked inside Medieval England’s defenses while everyone were busy raiding their home land, Scythia. This terroristic act angered the King of Medieval England and immediately ordered a second raid on Scythia. […continue reading The Castle in Flames]
