SL 12 Birthday cat question

[Petronilla Whitfield]

I got the blue SL12B cat, and it's lovely.

I noticed that the cat has Hamlet's famous soliloquy written all over it.

Do the other colors have it too?

[Kayla Woodrunner]

my friend's green one has the same text as my blue one

[Petronilla Whitfield]

Ah, then they probably all have the same text. Thanks for replying!

Here is the text of Hamlet's soliloquy:

To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep--
To sleep--perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprise of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action. -- Soft you now,
The fair Ophelia! -- Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remembered.

my question is... are they advertising this thing somewhere?
I keep running into cat fans that have no idea there is a KittyCatS SL birthday
sim up and running, or that there is a FREE cat available.

Oh and...SIT ON THE SHARKS HEAD!

To make things more confusing, there is another giver for the free SL12 Birthday Cat in an area for Gifts on the main SL12 Birthday Sims:

No, you can't get another free kitten - KC knows everything, including whether you already got one!
But it's a good place to hunt around for other stuff. ;-)

But, yes, I've only seen it in the contest announcement and discussions here, and the announcements in the Addicts group which have been kind of confusing. The last one mentioned the free birthday hats that are now also available on "pirate island" but didn't have the LM. If you didn't know the theme for the KittyCatS SL12 Birthday SIM and decorating contest is "Pirates of the Caribbean", you might not know where they meant. And I think the theme was only officially specified to those of us competing.

Is there a notecard or announcement somewhere on the SIM for visitors regarding the theme and voting rules?

Speaking of which, for anyone reading this and wondering where to go, it's here:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Ki...B/26/79/22

- Free random SL12 Birthday kitty (one per account)
- Free wearable-by-your-avatar birthday hats (wear the KittyCats Addict Group tag)
- PLEASE view and vote for our exhibits, which are on the rafts along the walkway.
(I think you can vote for as any as you want, but I'm not sure.)

Come get a slice of Pirate Birthday Cake from my exhibit while you're there!

And be careful, *teasingly points up at Winter* sharks don't give rides! LOL!

There has been notices for all and was not confused.
There is a SL12B KittyCats free, as gift in the KittyCatS SL12B Celebration SIM.

There is a BIG HUNT, runned from the official SL12B Organization, is kept in the SL12B Sim (and it's the slurl you've spoiled at first)

The theme of the contest was not Pirates Of Carribean. The KC sim have the Pirate set but the Pirate theme was not mandatory (also because the SL12B Theme is "Dreams")

And you can vote one time only for every decoration set you like, also all.

[MsMagick Resident]

Glad that you are all knowing, but a lot of people have been confused about the hunt - where it is and what it is for - versus the free cat and the KittyCatS Birthday SIM, and some of them have asked me. I wasn't sure myself about how the hunt worked or if I wanted to bother with it, until one of the friends who asked me figured it. I also made sure that I gave the main landing point for that gift SIM, not the direct surl to anything.

Yes, technically the theme for the island is "Pirates of the Caribbean" and anything "cute" is also okay, but I think only contestants got that information.

[Lixy Byron]

well, i had just read the KC notices (and since when i'm offline everything go capped have to check each day when log in).
about the theme of SL12B is written in the SL12B site, and was not a "what a geek!" thing discover because each time i log in with firestorm there is a link that bring me there,
about the theme for the KC contest, as contestant too.., we did receive a notice in june 16th, but the theme is not mandatory
and the hunt has been annunced only two days ago, with a link to the SL12B site that explain all

[MsMagick Resident]

When I first went to the SL12 Big Hunt tab on the SL12 celebrations website ( http://www.slcommunitycelebration.info/t...2big-hunt/ ), there wasn't any info in the main section of the page. Instead, I got an error that it wasn't found. I just had it happen again and had to reload the page before I saw anything, so maybe that's my browser/internet acting up. Personally, I had stopped when I didn't see any info there, until friends brought it back up.

[Lixy Byron]

that't not the link posted by Equi
she posted this one: http://www.slcommunitycelebration.info/sl12big-hunt/ . and works

i don't think KC made confusion, maybe sometimes we are tired, or in rush, or else and read too quick or bad.

that's all
