And I hadn&#8217;t realised how affordable Second Life land was in the rolling auctions &#8211; for about L2500 (approx USD10) I got a simple 512m sq plot (my land tier limit) on the side of a mountain by the seaside. Seemed like a good kickstart for practicing some building and scripting. I don&#8217;t know if thats a good price in the <a href=\"http:\/\/usd.auctions.secondlife.com\/\">Second Life land auctions<\/a> since I haven&#8217;t watched the numbers for long, but it seems reasonably affordable as the startup cost to embark on this game.

I mean, obviously, it can be really hard to find our precise plot on the mountainside if there isn&#8217;t some giant spinning psychedelic flower floating over it. And so we sat on top of the giant flower on the mountainside and admired the view&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><b><a name=\"whyhello\"><\/a>ALSO&#8230;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-930\" src=\"https:\/\/dbbd.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/8618892623_9b2e41014a_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"490\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2013-04-04 at 3.42.07 AM.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dbbd.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/8618892623_9b2e41014a_c.jpg 800w, https:\/\/dbbd.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/8618892623_9b2e41014a_c-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dbbd.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/8618892623_9b2e41014a_c-768x470.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>OH and we also met our hunky tattooed neighbour, who is probably going to start up a chain of sexy nevada-style casino brothel skyscrapers next to us.
