Thanks for posting this! I was wondering what it said, but having a hard time reading mine.

No, you can't get another free kitten - KC knows everything, including whether you already got one!
But it's a good place to hunt around for other stuff. ;-)

But, yes, I've only seen it in the contest announcement and discussions here, and the announcements in the Addicts group which have been kind of confusing. The last one mentioned the free birthday hats that are now also available on "pirate island" but didn't have the LM. If you didn't know the theme for the KittyCatS SL12 Birthday SIM and decorating contest is "Pirates of the Caribbean", you might not know where they meant. And I think the theme was only officially specified to those of us competing.

Is there a notecard or announcement somewhere on the SIM for visitors regarding the theme and voting rules?

Speaking of which, for anyone reading this and wondering where to go, it's here:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Ki...B/26/79/22

- Free random SL12 Birthday kitty (one per account)
- Free wearable-by-your-avatar birthday hats (wear the KittyCats Addict Group tag)
- PLEASE view and vote for our exhibits, which are on the rafts along the walkway.
(I think you can vote for as any as you want, but I'm not sure.)

Come get a slice of Pirate Birthday Cake from my exhibit while you're there!

And be careful, *teasingly points up at Winter* sharks don't give rides! LOL!

Thanks for posting this information. I'm in the silent kittycats group and there are no announcements past June 16. I figured there would be a SL12B kitty, though, so I got mine.

Glad to help.

Yes, when I first started breeding KittyCatS, I first joined the Addicts group, but when I saw how much chat it had, I briefly joined the quiet one. I looked at the announcements on both of them and realized that while neither one had announcements for all the recent events (New Collections, Q&A sessions, Fishing Events, New Traits Discovered, etc.) , the addicts ones had much more and the quiet one was missing important stuff that I would not want to miss. I'm not sure why all the announcements (minus a tease or two) don't just get copied to both groups. When I have been in charge of marketing for an event - whether in RL or SL - I've had a list of groups and places that I was supposed to list it, and also made up my own list of the details that needed to be included (who, what, where, when (date, day & time), etc.) so I wouldn't forget anything. Hmmm...I wonder if KC needs an SL social media person. :-)

Being the last person that ever hears of anything,
I always appreciate more data!

I wonder why they have a Twitter link on the web site.

If you think the quiet group misses information, take a look at their Tweets! "What Tweets," you ask? Exactly.

thank you for the reminder!! Smile

i'll make sure we make sure to do that!!! (on important announcements if we have missed them)

one reason we don't do the other group as much is that since they prefer "quiet" we just do things that seem less 'social' like announcements that affect how the cats work, etc.

my question is... are they advertising this thing somewhere?
I keep running into cat fans that have no idea there is a KittyCatS SL birthday
sim up and running, or that there is a FREE cat available.

Oh and...SIT ON THE SHARKS HEAD!

I need to sit on the Sharks head!!!! Tongue

Sure, Callie! And thanks!

Ah! I didn't think "quiet" meant introverted or non-social. I thought it meant all the important announcements without a lot of extra stuff... for busy people, those who don't log on often, etc.

But it is true that in SL, that's usually one of the big differences between selecting to get group IMs, and only getting group notices. I had the Addicts IMs turned off at first, but friends told me that it was very informative, and it is. And I enjoy the community there.

On YahooGroups (yeah, I know - it's been around for almost 15 years), I own and moderate an announcements-only group for a specific type of events, and we have a sister group (owned by a friend) which is for those who like to chat. Most event and news announcements usually go to both groups, but discussion about them is on the other group. So I was thinking it was more like that.

Congrats on that too, BTW!
And thanks for the great party, as well as the cat and other gifts!
