[09:28] Lyr Lobo: it is such fun
[09:28] Lyr Lobo: they worked on lag last year
[09:28] Lyr Lobo: and optimized the track
[09:28] Lyr Lobo whispers: T1 radion created a HUD
[09:29] Beth Ghostraven: oh awesome!
[09:29] Lyr Lobo: T1 radion created a HUD
[09:29] Lyr Lobo: that you wear and don’t have ot use the radio station
[09:29] Beth Ghostraven: Lag was a lot better at Fantasy Faire this year too
[09:29] Lyr Lobo: as it lags you when you cross regions
[09:29] Lyr Lobo: and the radio shifts
[09:29] Lyr Lobo: this is a no /low lab tune fest
[09:29] Lyr Lobo whispers: any questions?
[09:30] Lyr Lobo: any questions? *grins*
[09:30] Lyr Lobo: The event is free and the goal is to take a stand. While fundraising is desired, we met our goal
[09:30] Lyr Lobo: for this year
[09:30] Rhiannon Chatnoir: great
[09:30] Lyr Lobo: we’ve raised 256,962.87  and the goal was 250,000.00

[09:31] Lyr Lobo: yes
[09:31] Lyr Lobo: that’s the reason we feature it here
[09:31] Lyr Lobo: in addition to fighting cancer
[09:31] Lyr Lobo: RFL is a great rolemodel
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: for social good
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: in Second Life and how to manage over 1000 volunteers
[09:32] Buffy Beale: Lyr, are those real dollars or Lindens?
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: and pool the creative efforts
[09:32] Lyr Lobo whispers: good question, I suspect USD
[09:32] Buffy Beale: kk ty
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: I suspect usd
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: because we raised over 68,000 in Fantasy Faire in USD
[09:32] Lyr Lobo: and had 4 months of fundraising
[09:33] Buffy Beale: Amazing
[09:33] Lyr Lobo: many of the teams had $1,000 goals

[09:35] Lyr Lobo: Haven’t hushed up yet *winks*
[09:35] Gentle Heron: Relay involves so many people and is spread out over the whole year, really. Has anyone ever figured the funds raised per volunteer hour spent on fundraising?
[09:35] Lyr Lobo: I lost my entire family to cancer
[09:35] Lyr Lobo: including aunts, uncles, great-aunts, grandparents..
[09:35] Lyr Lobo: friends
[09:35] Rini Hathaway: Oh no
[09:36] Lyr Lobo: and I was born with it after excessive radiation prior to birth
[09:36] Lyr Lobo: so it is a labor of love to fight for a better future for our children
[09:36] Valibrarian Gregg: sorry to hear that Lyr – your work is inspiring
[09:37] Lyr Lobo: as many of you know, my sister of the heart, Delightful Doowangle fights non-hodgkins lymphoma for her third wave of Stage 4 cancer

[09:37] Lyr Lobo: as did my other research partner with his stage 4 cancer last year
[09:37] Lyr Lobo: so we struggle together
[09:37] Lyr Lobo: and stay strong together *smiles*
[09:37] Lyr Lobo: any questions on the relay for life?
[09:37] Lyr Lobo: once we go there, it is easy to get distracted, so my thoughts were to let you enjoy it free without listening to me *grins*
[09:38] Lyr Lobo: I have to watch the lu8minarias
[09:38] Lyr Lobo: the little bags on the side of the road
[09:38] Lyr Lobo: to figure out which way to walk or run *laugsh*

[10:10] Siri Vezina: but our popup is set up in the side yard for sleepouts
[10:10] Siri Vezina: We may yet get out camping somewhere, but we both prefer places where the bathrooms are open and have showers.
[10:11] Lyr Lobo: yes
[10:11] Lyr Lobo: she must be away
[10:11] Lyr Lobo: i tossed a dollar at her
[10:11] Lyr Lobo: when my students accidentally put me on block or ignore
[10:11] Lyr Lobo: only money talks *grins*
[10:12] Siri Vezina: LOL
[10:12] Lyr Lobo: so if you ever see me pelt y ou with $1 bills, it just means that I am needy

[10:12] Lyr Lobo: i also used to pay them for answers
[10:12] Lyr Lobo: i’d ask a queston
