Dozens of Robot Waiters Attack Maybe at Hobo Island

Ultimate Weapon Deployed

Determined to have peace and security, Parktown Officials today announced the deployment of the X-47-SL Ultimate SecondLife Security Weapon.

Boyd Doghouse and Dr Mortimer Hoof install the X-47-SL
device on the border between Hanja and Parktown.

A combination device developed by Dr. Mortimer Hoof (using alien Gurbux technology), the X-47-SL listens to, orbits, and if necessary kills avatars.

Listener:
With an effective range of 9,000 meters, the X-47-SL not only listens to and records all private and local chat communications on SecondLife, it also picks up all communications sent by MSN, Yahoo, AIM, Skype (including video conferences), Tiny Chat, Facebook and Email.

Orbiter:
With special attention to the ever-present threat of invasion by drunken Scotsmen, the X-47-SL can orbit any drunken limey to a height of 11,000 meters almost instantly. Benevolent Scottish person, Jasmine Hancroft agreed to get drunk just so we could test this function of the weapon.

Alt-Detection:
Although Linden Labs allows users of SecondLife to have up to five alternate accounts per household, Parktown Officials considers this a particular threat and designed the X-47-SL to detect all alts ever used by a SecondLife avatar, as well as picking up any accounts or screen names they might use on WoW, EVE, IMVU and Steam.

Armageddon:
In the unlikely event that all else fails, the X-47-SL can guarantee the security of Parktown Residents by detonation (as a final option) killing all avatars in a 29,000 meter radius. We have made arrangements with the Lindens to test the detonation option next month, with test sights in Ahern and Waterhead.

The device is programmed to begin playing music by Swedish Supergroup Abba 30 seconds before detonation, so if you hear Abba in SecondLife, RUN LIKE HELL!

Strange New Neighbors

I'd given up all hope of ever renting lot 13 in Parktown Shiot.  Located between Megan Bathgate's abandoned sex hotel and Astin Miles' Urban Grunge store and above the city's sewer and catacombs, Lot 13 wasn't very attractive to anyone.  It was the bad side of Parktown.

I really only acquired the parcel to link north and south Parktown Shiot and bought them at the lowest price possible from the Lindens, as they original owners mysteriously disappeared leaving all their belongings.  With no hope of renting the parcel I resolved to turn it into a station house for our proposed rail system, when one day a new user contacted me saying he was interested in the lot.

His name was Mortimer Hoof, and he was very eager to see the lot.  Absolutely disinterested in the surface area he'd be renting, Hoof only wanted to see the underground catacombs and sewer beneath the lot.

He was a very curious looking person: very short by SL standards, and with something of a pot belly.  His skin was pale and yellow and his sideburns grew completely out of control.  Most curiously, Hoof carried an umbrella with him wherever he went.  "I don't like the sun", he said.

Despite the rats and sewage he saw underground, and rumors of ghosts above ground, Hoof was absolutely delighted with lot 13 and eager to rent it.  His grandmother had seen it in a vision and Mortimer and his new bride decided they must have it.

I mentioned a price and Hoof pulled out a fat roll of Linden Dollars and paid for six months on the spot, giving me another ten thousand linden dollars to design and build a house for him on the lot.  "Victorian" he said.  "My wife and I are a bit old fashioned."
