LIFE ON TWO GRIDS

Some people on Second Life have expressed regret that Elf Clan left, stating that it left a void in their virtual life.  We too regret that step was necessary.  But Linden Lab just kept raising prices to the point that as a group we could no longer grow.  They constantly put their corporate profit line ahead of customer welfare.  Eventually they drove us to seek greener pastures where Elf Clan could thrive.

That doesn't mean people on Second Life still can't be part of Elf Clan.  It just means setting up an avatar and visiting our "new home" on Inworldz--where we've been since May 2010 (we're currently celebrating our 8th anniversary here).

Elf Clan spans more than thirty seven regions on Inworldz, all owned by individual members.  That's quite an increase from the very-limited two single-owner regions we had on Second Life.

 

JOIN ELF CLAN AND RECEIVE EVENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

We aren't limited to only "belonging" to one grid.  Elf Clan members can join multiple grids and travel freely between them.  If you would love to own land but can't afford the outrageous prices of Second Life... come to Inworldz.  Elf Clan has a special arrangement that provides us full-size, 45,000-prim regions for only $40 a month.   It's a creator's paradise. 

Even if you don't purchase land, you can sign up with the Elf Clan group on Inworldz and receive our event announcements.   Our events are as unique and interesting as ever.  

Gain the best of belonging to two grids.  Come join us at Inworldz and see what Elf Clan has been up to for the past eight years!

 

DUAL CITIZENSHIP

Inworldz and Second Life are not mutually exclusive grids.  One can enjoy activities on both.  Many of our Inworldz members regularly visit Second Life to see old friends or attend events-- especially those in the Tiny community there.   We don't have to delete our avatars on SL to join Inworldz; we can enjoy DUAL CITIZENSHIP and move freely between the two grids.

 

WHY VISIT INWORLDZ?

Because Elf Clan is here.   Visit Inworldz.com, set up an avatar, come and visit us.   Here is what you will find on ElvenMyst,  our group activity center:

* Huge sandbox and fantasy market

* Pirate Cove re-born in all its glory, and better than ever-- with four rezzable ships and an entire sea sim right next door that connects with three other regions.  Sail to your heart's content!

* Salty Dragon Tavern... our best tavern yet.

* Our famous Drum Circle... the original drum circle and Elf Clan's oldest event.

* SEVEN (yes count them, seven) high-sky Star Trek environments including starships, bridges, K-7 (the Trouble With Tribbles space station), and the planet surface of the Guardian of Forever.

* THREE sim-size race tracks, including the new Giant Spider Races-- a huge dirt track where you can choose a giant spider, slug or housefly as your racing vehicle.

* CRITTER BALL has returned!  Yes, the game of tiny soccer with a monster-size ball-- and it is fully automated for 24/7/365 fun.

* Fully automated DRAGON FIGHTS with free dragon avatars. 

* ARCHERY RANGE with three automated target systems and free equipment.

How are we able to get all of this on one region?  Because on Inworldz our lands only cost $40 per region-- and have a 45,000 prim limit.  There are no link limits (we built a space ship 105m long, 1,000 prims, all one object-- and it flies like a leaf on the wind).

Not only that, but on Inworldz there are no upload fees.  Many people come here to design and test their products and then import them into Second Life at greatly-reduced development cost.

All together there are twenty-three activity / event centers on ElvenMyst region.  Well worth a visit!

 

THEN THERE'S ELVENSONG

ElvenSong is the home region of Elf Clan.  It contains our main castle, DragonForge Merchantile, the Elven Grotto, the Crystal Museum of Elf Clan History, the beautiful Elf Clan Gardens, Cinnamon's Glen and the mysterious Dwagon's Keep... home of the notorious dwagons.

In high sky there is the hallmark REPLICANT CITY, a region-size science fiction exhibit and multi-theme museum with areas dedicated to Star Trek, Doctor Who, TRON, Portal, Firefly, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Steampunk and much more.   You can spend hours or even days exploring Replicant City alone.  Eight years in the making and fully interactive.  Replicant City is a widely-known major attraction on Inworldz.

Fleure's Enchanted Corner regularly hosts live music events several times a week.  There is no shortage of music and dance in Elf Clan.

 

SO COME VISIT!  Join Elf Clan on Inworldz and get the best of both worlds!

ELF CLAN PATREON- WHY and HOW
Category: Elf Clan News
Tags: patreon elf clan reasons

IMPORTANT:  When settinng up your Patreon account please use your Elf Clan avatar name. 

 

THE PATREON CONCEPT

Elf Clan members have mentioned wanting homes on group lands, but begin unable to afford entire regions. 

Historically in most societies Patrons have sponsored the arts and public events.  People like Elf Clan events... so we need Elf Clan Patrons.

   

WHY WE NEED YOU AS A PATRON

Patrons pay a small amount that can collectively add up.  Such funds provide us with the finances to pull a couple of very neat tricks.

There are members who would like to live on Elf Clan's family-friendly lands but can't afford an entire region.

 

In addition, people have told us they enjoy Elf Clan's event revival.  But events cost money and require event hosts.  

So it occured to the Eldar we could kill two birds with one stone by using Patreon.

* If we can get at least 8 to 16 Patrons, we can purchase a special residential region.

* That region will provide land for homes... both to Patrons (if such is desired)  and to Elf Clan members who host at least one event per week.

 

THAT'S RIGHT, FREE LAND TO EVENT HOSTS

Can't afford land?  Can't afford to be a Patron?   Just host one event per week (or more if you're able) and you will be provided nice piece of Elf Clan land.  The more events you host-- the larger the piece of land!

 

IT'S A WIN / WIN

With Patreon, Elf Clan members can own a home with Elf Clan for as little as $10 a month...  and at the same time help Elf Clan by providing funds to host events and offer incentives to Event Hosts.

A region costs us $40.  If we have just 16 patrons at the $10 level, that's $160... which will provide us all the funds necessary to host numerous events and pay for the residential region required.   Even reaching our minimal goal of $80 a month will provide us with residential lands and essential event operating funds.

All Patreon land funds will go to land Eldar Peter Lioncourt.  What is left over will go to our group funding avatar for event hosting costs.

 

WE GET TO TEST IT NOW, RISK-FREE

The great thing is you aren't charged for Patreon the moment you sign up.  Our first billing will be June 1.   We must have $80 in funding by May 30.   If we do, everyone is billed on June 1 and monthly thereafter.   We will purchase lands and hand them out to our new Patron residents.

If we don't get enough Patrons, no monetary loss occurs.  We simply shut down Patreon May 30, June 1 comes and no one is billed.  On the other hand if people generously become Patrons... Elf Clan can host regular, weekly events and our society thrive and prosper!

 

WOULD YOU LIKE WEEKLY EVENTS?

Do you like an active Elf Clan?  If you enjoy Tavern Nights, CritterBall, Dragon Fights, Giant Spider Races, Star Trek events and much more we have in mind-- we need your help in sponsoring such.  If we're going to hold events we need both the funds to do so... and event hosts to run them. 

If you want good events, different events... the kind of activities for which Elf Clan is famous.... We need Patrons.  : )

Remember:  no money is involved up-front.  You can sign up for Patreon now... and your first payment won't be due until June 1.  Please go to Patreon now and pledge your assistance to Elf Clan.  The entire group will benefit.

Please visit the Elf Clan Patreon page and see if you can assist.  All it takes is a relatively small donation per month to assist our group in a major way.
