Spooktacular Time with the Soulman!

If you missed our Halloween Ball then you missed a real Spooktacular time!  The costumes this year were amazing.

 Why even a few prisoners managed to escape and come to the ball.

 Some of the costumes were really really hot.

 Others were quite electrifying. :)

 And some even took the phrase "dig up a date" to a whole new level.

 We get all kinds.  Even pirates looking to bone up on a few things dropped by.

And there was even some horsing around going on.

If you missed out fear not, we will have another costume ball again soon.  And DJ Soulman is always at the Pool Deck every Sunday 12pm SLT dishing out the best to touch your musical soul.  Be sure to check out the SS Galaxy website for our full calendar and more!

Fishin' FUN

Every Tuesday at 3pm SLT we have a 7seas Fishing Contest at our boarding gangway.  It is always a interesting time as the fish try to evade our best bait.  Other try to use the patented fish caller, but they ignore the fine print (has been known to call sharks) which always makes for a interesting time. ;)

 Some even bring their own lunch.  Or is that bait?  Hmm this tiny might be on to something.  Now I wonder if all this time we have been using the wrong bait...

Definitely having a barrel of fun. :)

And here sharing a barrel with the current leader of the contest...probably trying to see what bait she is using. ;)

Never know what you will see aboard the SS Galaxy! :)

Monkey Business Aboard the Galaxy!

 You just never know what is going to happen aboard the Galaxy.  Take our jogging track event we just had.

 As you can see, lots of monkey business going on.

Yes definitely more monkey business.  But we were thankful that his brother King Kong didn't show up.  Then we really would be going ape.  And where else would you see a Managing Director, being followed down the jogging track by a monkey? :)

The Galaxy Goes Bananas!

Events are always fun aboard the Galaxy, but as you can see even we "slip up" on occasion (check the photo above). :)  We all had a great time at DJ Eria's set today, she is one of our very a-peel-ing DJ's.

If you haven't been to one of her sets lately then why not "slide" on over Tuesdays 12-2pm at the Constellation Lounge with her great mix of dance music and join the fun.  You just never know what you might see at the Galaxy!  And by the way, we never "split" until the end. ;)

Prim Plague strikes the Galaxy!

 A view from above where the main gangway is normally located, looking towards the ship

Yesterday a unusual occurrence happened at the SS Galaxy.  A event being called by many the "Prim Plague" struck removing 99.99% of the ship.  The 32,000+ prim SS Galaxy was reduced to less than 300.

People came from miles around to check out the devastation.  Some even sailing though where the ship use to be.

Eyewitness accounts said that everything just vanished at about 10:00am SLT.  There was not any odd rezing of objects or a slow disappearance but rather everything was there, then a second later, not.

Linden Lab was called and come to find out the Galaxy was not the only sim to have sufferd this "Prim Plague".  Many sims all over the grid had also been struck.  And a few had been restored only to have it happen again shortly thereafter.

Linden Lab told us at the time it was a server glitch of some sort and rather than restore any more regions, only to have them disappear again, they waited investigating the problem.

Meanwhile everyone teleporting to the ship were falling into the water.  A quick temporary gangway, with signs explaining the situation was constructed to prevent people from meeting up with the shark.  Although then again, the shark was also missing.  Our staff whale was surprisingly still there, and we have renamed her "Lady Survivor".

About four hours after the situation began the Galaxy was restored to all her glory via a full rollback (the first we have ever had to do in 5+ years).  Linden Lab has not mentioned the full details to us as to what caused this in the first place.  We thank all of our guests for their understanding of the situation and apologize for the inconvenience, but it was totally out of our hands.

Great Fashion awaits at Matahari Style

Looking for some cool summer outfits.  Look no further than  Matahari Style.  Here is a couple of the newest summer ones.  The summer polka dot dress is adorable...and who doesn't like polka dots.  It is just the thing to liven up the pool party. 

The new polka dot bikini well that is a eye stealer....all eyes will be on you when you wear this bikini.  LOL  Nothing more needs to be said about that.   And  check out the jewelry and sandals that go with the New Summer Polka Dot clothes....they are so cute and they are just perfect.

One of my favorite summer dresses is Matahari Styles Anniversary Waltz Tea Dance Gown in the color of honeysuckle.   Take a look, see which gown and color is your favorite.  You are sure to find one at Matahari Style.
