News from 3D Planets

by Medeusa
I do not blame anyone in charge of 3DP for it going boo boo last nite.(Sunday July 7, 2013) Deighv said it was because the server (?) lost a bunch of ITS servers (I prolly got all that wrong, grrr. ANYWHO... lets try THIS Sunday from 5pm till midnite in the HUB. Those who already have their party favors will not get more :P Posted by Medeusa

No more prezzies?! I might not come back then lol joking. I think we should make Sunday nights a permanent get-together night, just for chat, no need for prizes, games etc. unless its a special event but just to know when you log in others will be about. I mean come on what else is there to do on a Sunday night? Another repeat on the TV or a bit of virtual farming, bleh. reply by Storm on Jul 8'th - 10:00 am

That scheduled party date would be Sunday, July 14th at 5:00 PM EST ---The Editor

3d Planets: Touring Gaia2

You can go to http://3dplanets.com/ yourself, to explore.

Here is our guided tour of part of Gaia 2. The first planet at 3dPlanets we will explore. We have added 8 graphic captures to our Exploration of part 1: Gaia2. We will tour all three planets before deciding where we might choose a home. Each planet will have at least one page devoted to that exploration. so let us begin!

3d Planets: My First Exploration #2

Although I never received an email, I do have access and have begun to explore. Today I saw no one at the Hub (Staff lounge), and no one on Gaia. Over the next several weeks I will take a look at each of the planets within the site. I took a quick trip around looking at all three : Gaia 2, Starhenge, and Planet X. Next I go in depth on each planet to report the findings to our readers.

Next week you will have a report on the four hemispheres of Gaia 2. They are Oceania, Skyhome, Highpoint, and the Asteriod Belt. Their 3D Chat World is Courtesy Of Skippybrand !!! Here is their mythos:

"Imagine a futuristic planet with little dry land. A planet covered in water that has evolved into a nautical and airborne society held together by determination and ingenuity.

The inhabitants of this flourishing planet live not only on incredible floating cities upon the surface of the ocean and in the air, but also deep beneath the waves.

Because of the planet's rotation, axial tilt, and short year, Gaia 2 enjoys a constant climate, there are no storms and the ambient temperature hovers around 75 degrees fahrenheit. A constant light breeze makes this a sailors paradise.
