Yesterday, the elections of Miss Belgium Second Life 2007 took place at the New
Mardes Club in the Belgian Sim.
As expected, a lot of people attend the show, or at least tried to attend, as, you
can imagine, the lag was terrible.
I was asked to sit in the jury, which was an honour for me, together with
Spinneke Jewell, owner of the Spin Lounge Club, and Ron
Curtes, of the
Mardes Club.
As I was sitting on the stage, I could see everything from the first row. That is what I thought. But as soon as the crowd was getting in, the lag was enormous. Ron did crash several times, and I even missed the first part of the show, I did not even knew how many contestants there were.
I could not move, could not take any picture, and even
Spinneke did not want to talk in
IM, afraid as she was for crashing in the middle of the show.
When
AnnSophie, organiser of this event, asked to start voting on the
contestboard, the board crashed, and everyone had to vote with a
notecard.
Nevertheless, we may say, that it was a major event in the virtual history of Belgian's Second Life, with a great success and a beautiful winner.
Everyone will have to take his lesson after such an event, to take precautions, when possible, for the lag, and certainly forbid the repeatable gestures, which were very annoying some times.
Congratulations though to the organisation, because it was a very beautiful event, and congratulations to all the contestants, but especially to the winner,
Ninake Benelli, miss Belgium Second Life 2007.
You will be able to see all the pictures of this event at my
flickr stream, in the set of Miss Belgium 2007.
Some time ago, Ninake Benelli won the Miss Belgium contest in Second Life for 2007-2008. Amongst the prizes, she won also a photoshoot. It took a while, but here it is, the exclusive photoshoot with the one and only Miss Belgium Second Life.
