Wanna See My Weapon: LK&M Weapon


And what role play sim wouldn't be complete without an extensive weapon mall next door. LK&M (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Nemo/124/32/54) is a weapon shop. Find your own BFS (Big Sword) or BFG (Gun) complete with exotic name. I was almost tempted by the little black wrist crossbow. Brought back memories of David Gemmell's Waylander books. However, mall overload is kicking in again so time to move on.

Help Me Obi Wan: I Have a Role to Play


Travelling east from Freebie Heaven I came across some interesting looking scenery. Popped down to check it out. And yes it's a role play. Dromund Kaas - Massassi Sith / C (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Soye/82/240/50) is a role play sim. So for starters Elvis had to go temporarily and I donned my Jedi cloak. RPers can get awfully upset if you don't play along with the game :). I'm not really into these but there are a ton in SL if you want to dress up and have fun with friends. In essence there's usually a combat system (for example, DCS 2 is a popular one) that lets you see your health and has all those Dungeons and Dragony attributes. To be honest, I've never really seen the point of RPs in SL (I'd be happy for someone to enlighten me in game by the way). I had a serious World of Warcraft addiction so if I'm go to bash your head, it will probably happen in Counter Strike or WoW. Still all good clean fun (at least if it's a Star Wars role play). I once served some time in a Star Wars role play sim but it was too much like being in the territorials/national guard for me. Lots of training etc. But hats off this sim is small but pretty.

Heaven I'm In Heaven: Freebie Heaven


I saw a pile of green dots on the map and though ok that's a sex joint. But no. Pleasant surprise it was Freebie Heaven http://slurl.com/secondlife/Sooseunhwa/55/98/69. Everyone in Second Life loves free stuff and this is a sim full of it. Loads and Loads. Including a free Evil Bunny Avatar, Star Trek stuff, clothing, vehicles, gadgets, avatars, etc, etc, etc. More etc, etc, etc than the King of Siam.

Post Apocalyptic Poser: 5ifth Order


Sometimes Second Life is like a 3d comic book and I've often seen post apocalyptic and dark urban landscapes while travelling. 5ifth Order http://slurl.com/secondlife/Ahndang/94/80/36 has just that look. It's tougher picking through debris than through a conventional mall/shop sim but I saw poses, shapes, etc all in the Reality Under Siege theme of the sim.

Beasty: Ecstacy Island


Couldn't last could it. I knew that diner was going to be an oasis. So next stop I found is sex. But hey combine the mighty creative powers of SL residents and what do you get? Beast sex. It is worth a look, once, but there are some really funny things like dogs, horses, unicorns, gorillas. SL is an experiment so why not experiment with ur sex? Anyway Ectasy Island http://slurl.com/secondlife/Dongmoon/76/68/500 is up in the sky - no wonder.

Play Trivia: Sharon's Diner




Phew. Not everyone is sex obsessed (well not all the time). I found Sharon's diner http://slurl.com/secondlife/Doldari/107/122/67 which was running a 9am trivia event. Nice soundtrack, nice atmosphere, friendly folks. Just well nice. Especially after the run of hot spots that lie to the north and east. A little oasis of nice.

Lonely, Need Company, Got Lindens? : On Duty


So you're a Linden guy (or girl) with loads of money but no time to socialise. Or you're a talented and beautiful avatar who can't craft, can't sing or play music but you still need to earn a buck. What do you do? Escort of course. Ok so now the problem is do I have to hang out in some sleazy escort club. Hoot no! On Duty http://slurl.com/secondlife/Jeongam/216/197/53 have just the concept for you. How about a free personal organiser penis? Ok maybe I'm over selling it because there's no calculator function but this free penis HUD has a built in advert that shows all the online escorts on the On Duty network so that you can get in touch with one. Might give this a whirl next time I come across a sex sim ;)
