Residents from around the Second Life virtual globe have until precisely 1700 hours SLT/PST on Wednesday, July 28th to enter a completely random drawing for one golden ticket of admission to the first in-world meeting with founder and interim CEO Philip Rosedale along side the elusive double-C BK - COO and CTO Bob Komin - to talk about the future of the candy factory.
Based on bits of insider information, I mean rigorous investigative blog work replete with innuendo and speculation, reports are emerging that there are plenty of surprises planned for the event including a few clues to the back to basics mystery. Reported to be among the major announcements are:
The introduction of the Linden Endowment for Vermicious Knids (LEVK) dedicated to filling large voids of space with egg-shaped non-mega prims.
A revamped Linden Prize of $25,000L for the most non-tearful and productive use of the latest Everlasting Newbstopper (aka Viewer 2.X).
A dedication of new mainland territory called Loompaland; wherein land is designated as strictly Residential only and tier is paid in cacao beans, or magic beans if the cacao bean market fails. (Note: it is still uncertain if musicians will be forced to reside in Loompaland until they have perfected Goldie Pinklesweet in the original key.)
The colocation of the Lab to a single main factory consisting of transparent glass-walled Invention Rooms dedicated to the development of fewer but better confectionary delights such as:
- Laffy Search & Seizure Taffy
- Invisible Chocolate Community Linden Bears
- Emerald-colored Bi-focals
- Sophmore Sweet and Sour Spots
- Mushy Modal Mesh-mallows
- Red Hot Burning Bots 2.0
- Fizzy JIRA JuJubes
- Marketplace Never Melt in Your Mouth, Just in Your Hand Mints
And finally, the MOST SECRET announcement rumored to be released on Friday.. [drum roll]..
Lag-reducing Spotty Powder!
What is this intriguing concoction you ask? Sorry, that's embargoed until Friday!
Is it raining? Is it snowing?
Is a hurricane a-blowing?Not a speck of light is showing,So the danger must be growing.Are the fires of Hell a-glowing?Is the grisly reaper mowing?Yes, the danger must be growing,For the rowers keep on rowing,And they're certainly not showing,Any signs that they are slowing!
