The Last CDS Anniversary Events



For the past month, the Confederation of Democratic Simulators has thrown several events to celebrate their community's fifteenth anniversary. Last weekend were the last of their events. On Saturday October 5 at 12 Noon, Maggi696 sung for an audience of both local residents and friends. Shortly after 1PM, she was followed by DJ Patricio.

The Raglan Shire duo of singer, maggi696 and her partner, DJ Patricio will join us for OKTOBERFEST 2019 (They were kind enough to step up when our scheduled performer fell ill.)

Both the local residents and their friends, notably some tinies from Maggi and Patricio's home area of Raglan, enjoyed the show. There were also a few wisecracks. "Try to avoid stepping on anyone." While there was food and beer available to the side, the tinies asked, "How about wootberry juice? And waffles?" "Waffle, on a stick!" "If I don't get a waffle right now, I swear to God, I gonna start pulling someone's fur!" "Make waffles, not war."


On Sunday at 10 AM, a game of paintball, or "Get the Chancellor" as CDS Chancellor Kyoko Furse-Barzane (Samara Barzane) musingly called it, was scheduled. Rosie Gray was the winner of the match. "She is brutal," Kyoko would say. A few minutes after Noon was the "Party on the Platz." It turned out the original performer's computer wasn't working, so DJ Jonesy stepped to to provide the music.

Alas, but Calli's streaming computer has fallen ill. So she will not be able to DJ today for our OKTOBERFEST Party on the Platz. But never fear! Calli found us a replacement DJ who has confirmed. His name is Jonesy (bo130). He doesn't do "oompah", but we can provide our own with a yodel here and there. Please welcome him warmly!


The people there danced to the music, snacked on the food available, and chatted some, "One time my friend was talking about a sausage fest in real life.  I laughed.  She said no it's really a sausage festival. (laughter)." There were more tinies dropping by, "Oh my goodness, a hedgehog with beer." "It is funny to hear hedgies yodel." There was also a contest for "Best Dressed for Oktoberfest" with 1400 Lindens as the prize. A number went in traditional Bavarian outfits. One man just went as a droid, then changing to a "Mars Attacks" alien.

The Oktoberfest party went on to about 2:30PM, a happy moment for the CDS.
