Dancing Avatars (Alt Avatar Ball Report)

Dancing Avatars

The Alt Ball is fun because:
1. You get to dance!
2. You get to guess who’s who.
3. Secret identities are revealed!
4. You can win a date with an Oh!
5. You raise L$ so EFF can fight for our freedom online
6. Did I mention dancing avatars?

The Money

Dancing Avatars at the Alt Ball at Club Morpheus yesterday raised L$3,500 for the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) at the Alt Ball. It turns out the EFF has entry level “Silicon Level” memberships for L$6,250, so I kicked in a few more L$ and we made our donation in the form of a Silicon Membership. Maybe next year we could try to step up to a Copper Member donation, which is a mere L$16,250.

The Dates

Oh so exciting! Not only were identities revealed (I’m not naming names HERE! You had to be there!) but peeps won exciting prizes – a date with an Oh! Here are our winners:
1. Blacksnake Nightfire won a date with Bryn Oh!
2. Ardyn Bizet won a date with SaveMe Oh!
3. Aero Bigboots won a date with Agnes Oh Oh!
4. Liv Nirvana won a date with Vaneeesa Oh!

Don’t panic guys, these aren’t “dates” like have dinner and make out! 😛 They’re “dates” like your Facebook “friends” are your real “friends.” They should be called “contacts” but the FB marketing department thought “friends” sounded better. Same with our “dates.” They’re really just 30-60 min meetups. But the Alt Ball Marketing Department thought “Dates” sounded better. Just find a mutually ok time and go look at some art. Or shop. Or dance. Or trade stories. Or how to do stuff. Easy. No stress. But do snap a pix or two and send them to iRez! We like to document stuff!

DJ Agnes

Our host DJ Agnes Sharple organized a super-fun event and she also played a fantastic DJ set. Thank you Agnes! See everyone next time!

Pippi, Agnes & Vanessa dance to the wild dubstep of the SaveMe Triplets

They may be controversial around the grid, but there’s no denying, the SaveMe Triplets mix some jammin’ beats!

Vaneeesa Oh, powerless to stop herself from dancing to the SaveMe Triplets trance inducing beats!
