Waiting for The Guild

So I thought I'd get a jump on the action by showing up THREE hours early to Copper Robots interview with three of the members of "The Guild." Read up on the event at Massively, and get your avatar down here! Seats are filling FAST.

Rissa Moonstone has created avatars for them that combine aspects of their Guild characters with their real features, such as Zaboo...
Three hours early, and there's already 12 people camping here....

I'll be taking photos and hopefully capturing all the chat, that is, if the SIM doesn't go down. I expect a mad rush around 5pm. Updates below as they come in....

Update - 3:59 PM, SL time: There's a Ustream Channel if you want to watch us live!

We're still two hours out...

Update - 4:11 pm SL time: Just learned this will all occur in voice chat. I couldn't imagine trying to do an interview like this in text chat. That means anyone watching on Ustream will hear the actors' actual voices, not just typing sounds. YAY!

Update - 5:05 pm SL time: Still an hour away from start. There are now a few superheroes and fairies here as well. I have switched to Pirate garb in homage to the Guild's visit to the Renaissance Fair yesterday.


Update - 5:29 SL time: The interviewer is here. Soundcheck done. Ent arrives. Excitement builds!

Update - 5:41 SL time: Zaboo arrives! Technical difficulties with scripts ensue.


Update - 5:50 SL time: Felicia arrives and can't see anyone. The Ustream just went live.


Update - 6:15 SL time: Finally, all their glorious textures have rezzed.

Update - 7:18 SL time: They have derezzed! They stuck around to answer many questions from the audience, and despite the sound problems, told of many cool projects and plans down the road. I do hope they come back and explore SL some more.
