The Twilight Zone

Okay, I know this is sort of a pointless post. But something interesting happened today down in the Cavern I felt that i had to post somewhere, so, all you critics out there, you might as well get over it.

I was down in the Cavern today, and in Uru Obsession's Neighborhood, and there was an arseload of people there. Like twelve or so, and I was weirding out because I didn't see a single one of them, like out of an old Twilight Zone episode. I could hear them, but they sure weren't there. I mean, I apparently walked right through DaytonaKit at one point up by the podium in the Community Room.
And Jacuru and her both sent me some pictures to which I showed them one of my own:

DaytonaKit's KI Image

They are, annoyingly, a bit small, but if I make them any bigger, just a bit, they get ridiculously fuzzy on Blogger. But, if you can't tell, the first one is me in my Indiana Claybourne get-up all alone. The second one, taken just moments after I sent the first picture to her, is from DaytonaKit's KI. I'm in the same spot, just turned around a bit, you should be able to spot me if you really look.
It's probably some sort of Neighborhood Instancing malfunction, two people linking to the same Age at once, who knows. But I thought it was pretty nifty. Adam_Reith, whitesparrow, and Fah linked in at their respective times after me, and I could see them, and they could see everybody else, which poses more questions.

But, as it is, I thought it was pretty cool.

In other news, it's also the anniversary of the current opening of the Cavern. Today, it's been exactly one year since it was reopened. But, ofcourse, the DRc were still around then. It's kind of hard to believe actually, and I still don't have all of the Calendar Sparks..

Under the Christmas Tree


Well, I decided to try out Tweek's nifty KI Serial Code, and it seems to have turned out pretty good as far as I can see, though this is something of a test post, it's not why I'm posting.

Someone seems to have decorated Sharper's office in the City, kind of curious as to who, considering the DRC have all up and left, whether or not they're coming back. The menorah, Christmas trees, and such. We've all resorted to Sardines, Survivor etc. just to survive the boredom, and I see a lot of people vanishing. Honestly, I'm pretty impartial either way, I was gone for a couple weeks nerding out too, so.
Tonight our little Christmas thing-a-majig's started up, starting with Under the Roots Christmas tonight, with Ktahdn playing Christmas tunes till the sun comes up (Or as close as it gets, anyway.). Not to mention scaring certain someones about not having Little Drummer Boy in the playlist, ahem.

Anyway, it's shaping up to look like a good Christmas this year, both above and below the surface, even though my roomates are going to round most of the Christmas money up for a second computer, I'm still setting my eyes on finally getting a bloody iPod..
