DISQUS

Thank you for this report,,, I went to check this relay for life out after reading this and I must say I was a long long way from disappointed.

And I think the event went a little bit unnoticed by folks and really didn't get the appreciation that it deserved.

It was a terrific effort. There was live entertainment for 2 days, people mingling in camps, great stuff going on, all amongst the tracks leading through hills, in caves, and some of the best scenery in Second Life, and all completely original...

For a collaborative, community event, I think this stands out tops. I haven't seen Second Life used so well for such a good cause, and I really believe they deserve far more honourable mentions than they have been given for pushing boundaries for the second life community.

Thank you very much it was great.... HAd trouble making donations though :( Hope they did ok !

It said something like 1400 visitors when I was there on Saturday afternoon, which isn't all that much....

To add to that last statement, it sure felt like loads of people about... I think that might have been folks that had done the full circuit when I think about it...

You think the event went under reported? Wow. Not to imply that you live under a rock, but we obviously spend our time on vastly different areas of the grid. If first noticed the RFL booths out in February. Yes that's 6 months ago. By the time the actual really came around I was so sick of events and fundraisers that were being tied to it I was getting quite anti-RFL.

That and I was personally getting a little cheesed off that all the funds were going to the American Cancer Society, yet RFL is being co-ordinated around the world by many different anti-cancer groups.
