THE INIQUITOUS FUN FAIR — An OpenSim Story

What a crazy time we live in. The news cycle shows you a town in crisis while HIDING the story which should get coverage. But here in OpenSim, we have a Virtual Town in Crisis; that is... THE REAL STORY... and all of you are invited.

Dismayland exists because of worldly conflict. It was inspired by Banksy, whose art has always held a mirror to the absurd. As an NPC enthusiast, I found a wellspring of ideas to draw from, even without seeing the original exhibit in person. My thought was simple: What if theme parks were truly honest with their customers?

As a Florida resident within driving distance of every major theme park... and well aware of the drama surrounding them... this scenario was too good to pass up. Everything here is fictitious, but loosely based on reality in ways that will be obvious only to those who follow local news. Take that for what you will.

What we have here is a Digital Virtual Novel you can explore. Leave your worries behind. Enjoy a nonsensical portrayal of the ridiculous... because that is what entertainment is. Nothing that happens here influences the outside world, as someone was kind enough to point out. What is a virtual novel without plot twists, corruption and some intrigue?

Enter the Dismayland Scavenger Hunt.

Dirty Helga and I were brainstorming maddening additions for Dismayland. I reject most of what Hollywood produces these days, so I turned to older films for inspiration. I have seen scavenger hunts before but they were far too easy. I wanted something epic.. something outright crazy, yet honestly solvable.

What emerged: a game board that remotely renames objects, a separate script that deploys roaming 'sploder' drones dropping clues, deceitful NPCs, misdirection, MISINFORMATION and a cow being abducted by aliens who holds nothing but contempt for that insufferable game board. All of these elements were already present in Dismayland. I just needed code to make it all work together... and that is where the turpitude of Dirty Helga shines. Nobody knows the lore better than her, and she was instrumental in stitching it all together.

There will always be some politics in OpenSim. My plan is to keep whatever exists here specific to the grid... not reality. When you're ready for your ESCAPE, The Iniquitous Fun Fair awaits.

Most mornings I am at Dismayland sipping coffee with my script editor open. Care to pop in for some coding conversation?
Maybe I can start using the Happy Hour feature.

IT'S FRIDAY and it means it’s that time of the day to join DeeJay Sofee from **6AM to 8AM** (grid time) at the Alternate Metaverse Main Landing Point!

It's time to get you out of your Bed and grab your coffee mug, and teleport over to the Main Landing Point.

Let DeeJay Sofee wake your Friday morning up the Sofee Way and to start your day with a BIG Bowl full of Energy to get your day started.

Come on over and Wake up the Sofee Way and celebrate being alive this beautiful Friday morning!

Lets GET LOUD this FRIDAY MORNING with MODERN COUNTRY MORNING together!!

Thank you to Dorena for creating this original banner! I have taken it and made a banner for my profile. ANTIFA is NOT an organization. It is an ideology. The ideology of anti-fascism. I will be using this as a base. And I will ensure that the art festival supports my political message. Because ART is POLITICAL. It always has been. It always will be.

I have this great review I want to share about Dismayland by Spax Orion https://opensimworld.com/user/Brettson

If you havent checked it out please do. Spax and his cool twisted mind knew what he was doing when he built this. There is no region anywhere like it.

The scripts alone speak for themselves. It is dark, creepy, funny and lots of fun.

I had a chance to check out his new ScavHunt game. The past few days I have spent hours in his region just playing that game and trying to win it which I eventually did. Maybe with a little help lol. It is one of those games that keeps you on the edge.

The region is like walking through a bad nightmare but in a cool twisted way that you get curious enough to check it out.

His mind created things that I would have never guessed you could even do in opensim. The detail, the music, the afterlife the insanity lol. It is a great region.

All I got to say is hats off to Spax and if you all want to check it out, copy the link below and put it into the map.

Trump Orders Use Of Secret Time Travel Technology to Fight Anti-Fascists.

A special task force of FBI, CIA, FDA, FCC, and WWE WrestleMania operatives have looked into the treasonous activities of Anti-Fascists, AKA Antifa. Together, they have uncovered evidence of Antifa activity within and on behalf of the U.S. government. As a WWE Hall of Fame honoree and Commander-In-Chief, Trump has ordered that America’s secret time-travel technology be used to cut Antifa off at its roots, way back in the 1940's, and even earlier.

Have a look at what we are fighting – a woke U.S. Department of War and it’s insidious anti-racism, pro-immigrant, religious diversity, DEI, anti-fascist propaganda. What in thunderation?

Sometimes when you do nice things for people, someone will take notice. Thanks for the article, Hypergrid Business!
https://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2026/04/opensim-builders...

We had our fun.

Dorena was kept very busy with it, and she had a pleasant way to spend the day, seems she loves drama!
I am not particularly impressed by the threatening messages regarding legal action that I received. She has no case.

Unfortunately, knowing Dorena, all of this will not mean that she stops making nonsensical political statements on our OpenSim platform. It seems she is already busy again with an alt account, Sylvester.

My actions were intended to make clear that many people on this platform are completely fed up with her nonsense.
Who knows, maybe she will mend her ways someday ;)

I will follow Bink Draconia her advise and delete the post I did and wish you all a nice day.

HI all, So Wolf Software Systems Ltd owns Wolf Territories Grid. Some time ago, we released some software called WolfStack for running server clusters. It will run on top of Proxmox or any Linux distribution (sorry, not Windows). The website is https://wolfstack.org. It's free to use and has a lively discord group. We actually run Wolf Territories Grid on it.

We've put RCBot's OSFest 2026 Dates poll in the polling channel on the OSFest Discord server. If you are not on Discord and want to vote we can vote as your proxy. The choices are Aug 17-31, 2026 or Oct 12-26, 2026 - here to help if needed! Most OSFest Events will be on different grids scheduled via the updated OSFest Calendar application. The poll will be up for the remainder of April 2026 so everyone has a chance to vote.

Best of Bad Event Ideas: #1001
The Best At Tough-Guy Talk

Listen up, Mr. Smell-fungi and Ms. Mun-dungi. We’re having a “Best At Tough-Guy Talk” event, and we need more losers like you to attend. You know, the kind of person who shoots someone in a dream and wakes up to apologize. Someone who is as scary as a ruthless spelling bee contender. People who think they are a main character but are only an extra their own movie. You know the kind. Bald coot, bananaquit, leech-eating, plain-wandering stinkbirds. So come on, Mr. and Ms. Niny-Hammer of Noodles. Join all the other barbers, tailors, panders and procurers, parasites, and lick-spittles for an evening of real tough talk. Or are you just a facetious pettifogger?

Why is The Best At Tough-Guy Talk a bad event idea? Some people will take the insults seriously, like they do with OSW posts.

MAZE VIEWER MAJOR UPDATE KDU 8.0
I am extremely pleased and excited to announce that I have obtained a license (and yes for those of you that may know this, I confirmed it today for sharing with the community--which is YOU , as an amateur) for KDU. For those that don't know what that means...it is well-- some of you said firestorm still looks a bit better than my work..well it is because of OpenJpg having to be used in opensim. The story is extremely long, it falls like star wars..long ago in a galaxy far away..I don't mind chatting with you about it, though, so say hello if you want to. KDU is the texture library firestorm uses. I wrote them and got the license for 150 dollars! I also added a zoom to whatever object is selected for editing. While it is selected just choose ALT+Z or in Controls in prefs choose your own. In Blender (.) zooms to selected so I duplicated the idea. https://maze.bz/mazebzviewer.zip

Coffee Fixings - free to copy/buy for 0 in the Harris Hardware Store with the other coffee items. What can I say? I'm a details junkie:)

In the contents you can get all the separates too so you can arrange them in other ways. And the bowl is from Sketchfab and credited in the description.

Let me reiterate for everyone: If I belonged to a radical terrorist wing of the autonomous movement, would I be posting here? They keep to themselves and would kick my ass if I posted so openly. Besides, they also have the hacking capabilities to track down fascists online. Okay, I'm somewhat skilled at that last part, but what good would it do me? I abhor violence, and what I can't achieve verbally here wouldn't change anything if I were face to face. My language is sometimes very harsh and comes across as violent, which is also due to my despair at how brutalized and right-wing society has become, not just in Germany, but worldwide. And when I then see such incredibly stupid comments on my posts, it doesn't exactly reassure me. And yes, I am Antifa in the truest sense of the word. Anti-fascism. To those confused minds who think left is the new right, all I can say is, the earth is flat. *lol* The fact that I was even kicked out of an art event on a well-known German network yesterday because of who I am doesn't bother me. I already have a more lucrative offer that promises significantly more reach. Have a good life, everyone.
..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Nochmals für alle Leute: Würde ich einem radikalen terroristischen Flügel der Autonomen angehören, würde ich hier posten? Die halten sich im Verborgenen und würden mir den Arsch versohlen, wenn ich hier so offen poste. Zudem verfügen die auch über Hackermöglichkeiten Faschisten im Netz ausfindig zu machen. Gut letzteres beherrsche ich ein wenig, aber was hätte ich denn davon?? Ich verabscheue Gewalt und was ich verbal hier nicht erreiche, das würde auch nichts beim Gegenüberstehen ändern. Meine Wortwahl ist mitunter sehr barsch und kommt gewalttätig rüber, was auch an der Verzweiflung liegt, wie verroht und rechtsorientiert die Gesellschaft geworden ist, nicht nur in Deutschland, nein weltweit. Und wenn ich dann noch so unsagbar dumme Kommentare zu meinen Beiträgen sehe, beruhigt mich das auch nicht wirklich. Und ja, ich bin AntiFa im eigentlichen Sinne des Wortes. Gegen-Faschismus. Zu den verwirrten Geistern die meinen, Links ist das neue rechts, kann ich, nur sagen, und die Erde ist eine Scheibe.*lol Das weil ich bin, wie ich bin, gestern sogar als Teilnehmerin bei einem Kunstevent eines bekannteren deutschen Grids herausgeflogen bin, stört mich nicht weiter. Ich habe bereits ein Angebot, welches lukrativer ist und bedeutend mehr Reichweite verspricht. Habt alle ein schönes Leben.

It's World Puffin Day and Fianna Rua has some kick ass Puffins. There are free to copy/buy for 0 birds on the South West side of the lighthouse on the rocks. There are some others that are simply to be admired:)

There is a wooden Puffin statue in the Old Bridge Inn up on the shelf that's also available. And these fun Punk Puffin tshirts in the clothing shop at the corner of Merchant and Mermaid's Lane. The Puffin graphic on the shirt comes Pixel Labs on Pixabay. The shirts are for Classic Avatars but textures are included for BOM users.

Puffins are charasmatic birds; sometimes nicknamed the clowns of the sea. While globally they're not classified as endangered they are vulnerable to extinction they suffer declining populations due to climate change and food shortages related to overfishing. It should be noted that Eurpean Puffins are listed as endangered. Pollution, oil spills, hunting and invasive predators are all factors in this.

Love Puffins today:)
