The first issue of 2025 is out, the Winter Issue of Virtual Education Journal! The Journal (VEJ) was mainly a Second Life Publication, but the new Editors decided to expand into many different virtual platforms including OpenSim. Which is great for us. Check it out here. FYI, the summer edition is going to be all about OpenSim, so if you want to write an article go to the back page of the journal, all of the submission info is there. https://virtualeducationjournal.com/

Dear Friends of the Virtual Carnival,

What an incredible time we have had! Once again, we were able to celebrate an unbelievably beautiful carnival in the Pangea Grid together. It was a festival of colors, imagination, and pure joy. One of the undisputed highlights was our Rose Monday parade, where creativity and community spirit came together in a truly impressive way.

A huge thank you goes to all those who, with tireless dedication and boundless imagination, built the incredibly creative floats, airplanes, UFOs, and many other wonderful constructions. You transformed the Pangea Grid into a true carnival spectacle and brought joy to countless people!

We are especially delighted that so many external grids joined us again this year, making our carnival an even more diverse and exhilarating event. A heartfelt thank you to Soul Grid, Monroose Grid, Nabila Grid, CCI Bikerworld, SoA.Bad and SINAS.S, HG Safari, and Loru.Destiny from the Grid artdestiny! Your participation has once again enriched and brought life to this Rose Monday parade.

I would also like to extend a special thank you to Abraxas and Lilie Oller, Bink Draconia, Finja and Jason Flux, Tutz, Lampithaler and Reyno Parx, Lilly Topas, Kitty Sarrasine,, and all the many dedicated participants who made this carnival what it was: an unforgettable experience!

As we cherish the memories of this wonderful carnival in our hearts, we already look ahead: Next year, we will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Cologne Virtual Carnival! A very special jubilee that we will mark with even more brilliance, even more magic, and even more enthusiasm. The anticipation is already immense!

With a short video insight, I bid you farewell and say from the bottom of my heart Thank you! For your enthusiasm, your creativity, and your love for the carnival. Without you, this festival would not be the same!

Three cheers from the heart: Kölle Alaaf! Pangea Alaaf! Virtual Carnival Alaaf!

With carnival greetings and full of excitement for next year,

Yours, Marlon Wayne

Liebe Freunde des virtuellen Karnevals,

was für eine grandiose Zeit liegt hinter uns! Auch in diesem Jahr durften wir gemeinsam einen unglaublich schönen Karneval im Pangea Grid erleben. Es war ein Fest der Farben, der Fantasie und der puren Lebensfreude. Einer der unbestrittenen Höhepunkte war unser Rosenmontagsumzug, bei dem sich Kreativität und Gemeinschaftssinn auf beeindruckende Weise vereinten.

Ein riesiges Dankeschön gebührt all jenen, die mit unermüdlichem Einsatz und grenzenloser Vorstellungskraft die unfassbar kreativen Wagen, Flugzeuge, UFOs und viele andere wunderbare Konstruktionen gebaut haben. Ihr habt das Pangea Grid in ein wahres Narrenschiff verwandelt und damit unzähligen Menschen Freude bereitet!

Besonders freuen wir uns, dass auch in diesem Jahr wieder zahlreiche auswärtige Grids teilgenommen haben, was unseren Karneval zu einem noch vielfältigeren und mitreißenderen Ereignis gemacht hat. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an das Soul Grid, das Monroose Grid, das Nabila Grid, CCI Bikerworld, SoA.Bad und SINAS.S, die HG Safari sowie Loru.Destiny aus dem Grid Artdestiny! Eure Teilnahme hat diesen Rosenmontagszug wieder einmal bereichert und mit Leben gefüllt.

Ebenso möchte ich mich ganz besonders bei Abraxas und Lilie Oller, Bink Draconia, Finja und Jason Flux, Tutz Zabelin, Lampithaler und Reyno Parx, Lilly Topas, Kitty Sarrasine und all den vielen engagierten Teilnehmern bedanken, die diesen Karneval zu dem gemacht haben, was er war: ein unvergessliches Erlebnis!

Und während wir diesen wundervollen Karneval nun in unseren Herzen bewahren, richten wir den Blick bereits nach vorne: Nächstes Jahr feiern wir das 20-jährige Bestehen des Kölner virtuellen Karnevals! Ein ganz besonderes Jubiläum, das wir mit noch mehr Glanz, noch mehr Magie und noch mehr Begeisterung begehen werden. Die Vorfreude darauf ist jetzt schon riesig!

Mit einem kleinen Video-Einblick verabschiede ich mich und sage von Herzen Danke! Für eure Begeisterung, eure Kreativität, eure Liebe zum Karneval. Ohne euch wäre dieses Fest nicht dasselbe!

Dreimol vun Hätze: Kölle Alaaf! Pangea Alaaf! Virtueller Karneval Alaaf!

Mit karnevalistischen Grüßen und voller Vorfreude auf das nächste Jahr, euer Marlon Wayne

Hey guys, I have some exciting great news about the E Grid, and some semi-bad news. Well it isn't really bad as such, more of a heads up.

So the semi bad first: From the 11th to the 24th of March, the Grid will be completely down, as we install and work on upgrading new regions and doing massive multiple backups. They are BIG backups, and it can't do them correctly with the grid running, sadly.

As you already see, Builds Ahoy seems down for the most, due to the crash at Osgrid.

We are backing up and then backing up again.

The good news:

We're going to be back fully, with most or all of our former regions. We have a new Server situation and its going to allow us to do this.

I will be adding lands today here, bear in mind most will be up 24/7 but not all. We have a good amount of large lands, and in order to do this, at times a few will be offline. Again please remember we'll be down totally 11th to 24th this month. We're doing this to safeguard ALL our assets in multiple places.

Have a great day and please bear with me as we bring back E Grid fully :)

Hi There :D

We are the Savannah Sister's & we would like to tell you a little bit about Wolf Territories today.

We've been talking up a storm with Bobby our very own personlized AI!

Bobby is available to talk with anyone who desires all types of information, Especially about Wolf Territories!

If you own your own region, you can own your very own Bobby!

Bobby! Only available on Wolf Territories Grid! :D

We asked Bobby to give us some interesting facts about Wolf Territories Grid and he gave us lots of information.
Here is the first & formost one! :D

Besides the popular regions, there are hidden gems like the Sci-Fi regions in the east, which include Europa—a must-visit for any sci-fi enthusiast.

Europa is owned, built & run by the ever so loved & popular Jimmy Olsen!

Not only has he built this massive sci fi region but he's also built our new Welcome Center that's hardly 2 monthsold yet, and we are so close to becoming #1on OSW, with only a few more votes needed to get there! :D

That's penominal, to say the least!

Won't you kindly help us out in getting some more votes?
We so appreciate & enjoy the company of everyone that comes to visit Wolf Territories Grid! We will always have something new & different to offer you!

The grid hosts a wide range of events, from spiritual gatherings at SoulRising over on Wolf Mountain to lively music sessions at Tropical Illusions where the mastermind of muzik, DJ Illusions plays his own music that he produces & composes on his own! There’s something for everyone!

One more fun & oh so important fact about our never ending growing grid is this:

The grid was started by Lone Wolf in 2020 and has since grown into a vibrant community, with Lone Wolf often being showered with ‘Wolf Snacks’ for his contributions.

Lone Wolf is the one person that's been keeping this grid on it's toes. Lone works tirelessly making Wolf Territories Grid run smoothly & efficiently. Lone is gifted with a superb mind in the technical area. So of course Lone is in the perfect positon to manage this ever growing grid. The more people that become members here, the more servers he buys to keep our Wolf Territories Grid running & kept in top notch condition! :D

The Savannah Sisters will be back again to give you more of Bobby's knowledgable fun & interesting facts about this fun loving grid that we all so adore! :D
