The Games Have Begun — Microsoft Island Launches

Published on Friday, May 11th, 2007 by Reuben

Wow!¬† After some small audio glitches, the opening night party for Microsoft Visual Studio is drawing to a close.¬† We had 55 avatars on the main island and 25 - 30 on the overflow sim.¬† And the games have begun with people donning their scoring wristbands (specially designed with 10 lights, one of which ignites as you find each successive egg on your quest to discover the secret inside the blimp).¬† So far we’ve had 7 people find the first egg and 2 find the second one.

Unscramble this clue to find the 1st egg’s location for the brainy folks searching the land,. . . . “A LOBE PLOT”.

Happy Hunting.
