Last Saturday, a special event was held in Second Life. The Titmouse animation studio, noted for shows such as "The Venture Brothers" and "Star Trek: Lower Decks," held it's "Smash Party" here in the virtual world. The studio had been doing them in real life for almost two decades, but recently stopped. So what was their event brought here like?
For those who don't know, Titmouse is an animation studio "that develops and produces animated television programming, feature
films, music videos, title sequences, commercials, and short films." The numerous shows they've had a hand in include "The Venture Brothers," "Superjail," "Megas XLR," and "Star Trek: Lower Decks." Among the traditions the studio has had over the years is the "smash party" in which various objects are placed in a steel cage (cheap or broken/useless), and someone goes in and pummels everything with a sledgehammer or axe. Company founder and CEO Chris Prynoski would say of the event, "In the 21st century these types of activities are frowned upon. The
Smash Party is a night where one can experience the visceral catharsis
that our cave-person brain secretly desires without the stigma of our
repressed society's judgement."
Titmouse would end it's smash parties in 2019, preferring to end them while they were still popular. But today one such party is taking place here in Second Life, Saturday September 12 at 6PM SL time.
Expect the unexpected at the Titmouse Smash Party ... Anything can (and probably will) happen at this virtual world gathering
where participants are invited to smash, bash and crash one of the
hottest parties of the year held by independent award-winning animation
production company Titmouse ... Attendees of the Lightbox Expo
and the Second Life community are invited to attend this year’s
festivities, which include a combination of music, art and overall
anarchy. At the center of the event is an interactive smashing cage
where attendees can smash objects with a variety of different weapons.
You can also meet and take a photo with Titmouse mascot, Mr. Chirps.
Rumor has it that the region is filled with more than a few easter eggs
so don’t be surprised when you encounter everything that is weird and
wonderful -- all springing from the imagination of the Titmouse team.
Eagle-eyed attendees may see a few familiar faces from the Titmouse
creative team and animated characters in the crowd, too. (Did somebody say Dethklok?)
What’s a party without free swag? Don’t forget to pick up your free virtual gifts as you arrive.

JessicaBelle Dayafter told Second Life newspaper about a special event at the WW2 RP. This battle will be going on all weekend at the New Fallout sim. Both sides are more than happy to take in new players, but it is asked they take a few minutes to check the rules before storming in. Certain equipment provided for free is required to take part. For details on the battle, check Wikipedia. For decades, Russian historical records would not include it, so it became known as one of the "forgotten battles."
