Week 2: Exploring SecondLife
13:40
The second week of this module was spent getting to grips with the SecondLife environment.
The first place I visited was Something Estates Shopping Centre, where I played a game called Gridberts which made absolutely no sense but I was given a Ray Gun which I was quite content with.
I think the objective of the game was to shoot other avatars but I couldn't find any so I just shot the little ball-people.. things. They started to shout at me so I promptly stopped. Lesson learned.
Next, I visited Dublin in SecondLife. There wasn't much going on in Dublin or many people roaming about to talk to so I didn't spend much time there. Also, I was disappointed to find that there was no iconic spire. Shocking stuff.
Curiosity led me to the Adult Land Portal, where I was dropped at 'Fun Girls Extraordinary Strip Club'. I thought I might find a crowd here but all I found was a solitary dancing hooker, who kept trying to make me pay her to dance for me. After declining the offer, I went and floated in the pool for a while. Admittedly an odd sight while still carrying the Ray Gun.
After that, I decided that exploration was best continued at a more appropriate time to suit other time zones and logged out after a tiring and fun-filled day on SecondLife.
