At the Relay

 As this is being posted, it's the middle of the Relay Walk, the 24 hour event that is the high point of the Relay Weekend.

Following the Opening Ceremony, the various teams gathered onto the Track.

While cancer is  a serious subject, there's been much funnery on the Track. Team Ragtag poked fun at the "Pokemon GO" craze by putting a pikachu on their camp.

 At the American Cancer Society sim, there was a spontaneous gathering of people.

When Stingray Raymaker went AFK, people decided to poke fun at him by rezzing things on and around him. Then Maddona, with her cockroach arms after her "Nightmare" challenge decided to stand behind him so he was between me and the camera ...

Poor Stingray. He never gets a break.

That's all for now from the Relay. Stand by for more.

Madonna's "Cancer's Worst Nightmare"

So what would you do for the Relay? There have been no shortage of things that have been done to raise money from the "Bid Me Bald," to wearing a different type of avatar for a while, to being a color you told everyone you loathed. But Madonna Daehlie's "Bid a Nightmare to End a Nightmare" took things to a whole new level. Inspired by a scene from a horror movie, the DJ noted for her rubber suit was sporting a look that no doubt will "bug" her fans.

Read the story in Events.

Announcement: Bid a Nightmare to End The Nightmare

Madonna Daehlie has never been one to shy away from a challenge for the Relay for Life. Known for her rubber suits, DJ Madonna  certainly stands out as a unique personality among the Relayers. But if anyone thought she was scary before, they should see her now as she resembles a human/spider hybrid as part of a fundraiser: "Bid a Nightmare to End The Nightmare That is Cancer."

Madonna has been injected with something awful and it gave her spider arms like from "Nightmare on Elm street." What was the mad woman in the sweater said? "Live a nightmare to end a nightmare like cancer."  So 20K for each week you wanna see Madonna bugged out!

The kiosk one can donate to for Madonna's "Nightmare" challenge is at Silver Creek (213, 199, 3301)

Petition To Save An Island

People don't always think about what happens to their items when they die. In real life, courts often rule when there's no will or one or more items owned by a deceased individual aren't covered by one. But what it the item in question is virtual and used by a number of the deceased person's friends?

My friend Madonna Daehlie of the Relay for Life told me about Helgi Island, also known as "Miss Lucie's Land of Fun & Fantasy". She asked me to get in touch with a Gordan Ninetails, whom told me the sim's owner had passed away and the sim was facing deletion by Linden Lab. "It's a bdsm themed sim, but its focused more around having fun than anything else. It's open to anyone to come and hangout, aslong as your over 18 and not a child avi. We regualy get over 9000 traffic, going upto around 15,000 when we have a dance at our club."

What to do? Rather than just let the place die, the fans of the location started a petition to try to convince Linden Lab to transfer ownership to a group which can keep up the teir payments, "Its up to 73 signatures in 6 days."

So will the petition suceed? Time will tell. In the meantime, Helgi island remains up until the tier is normally due. There are games people can play, and a balloon ride.

Reader Submitted: "Concert For Caprice" Raises 76,140 Lindens for National Kidney Foundation

But she came to the Newser with a tale that began with a sad event, the passing of a friend: Caprice Darkrose, who died of complications of kidney disease. In response, her friends held a fundraiser in her honor for the National Kidney Foundation: the "Concert for Caprice."
