Welcome to Virtual-Secrets, week 305.
Seriously, people are losing their shit over a camp rp? And people spend time, effort, cunning, backstabbing, money, etc to get into camp with their friends? Jesus what a sorry looking bunch of losers.
Okay. I was ready for the camp secrets. They never fail. This is to those who post them, especially to you my darling #12. Without giving too much information I would like to share my experience with CHK, the directors, and the process in general. Camp registration has a lot to do with luck. I was barely able to register this time, whereas I’ve gone before so the whole comment about favoritism is invalid. I am terribly sorry that you weren’t able to get in. There’s a ton of new faces this season though and maybe instead of complaining about those who did get in you should focus on making more friends who can help you next time. There’s an entire community on Plurk each session that does nothing but try to help get one another enrolled. Don’t be afraid to reach out if you don’t know many people. The kid community is quite vast and expanding more and more. Everyone has the SAME chance to get a place at camp. Golden tickets can be found during certain events or auctioned off. Everyone has the same chance to find or buy these tickets. Camp registration is always the same process. Times are set up to enroll and from there it’s really just who can TP in fastest to click the kiosks. As for the people that run camp. Do you even know the time, money, energy, and patience it takes to set this up? Do you understand the emotional and mental toll it takes on the directors and counselors? Don’t you think that they’d like to open the doors to anyone who wants to register? Sadly, SL has limitations that will never allow this to happen. The number of spots are very specific because with SL’s restrictions, ‘just one more… Read more »
‘Everyone has the SAME chance to get a place at camp. ‘
I don’t have a dog in this fight (or a kid in this camp), but if it really is that oversubscribed then this doesn’t seem very fair to me. Surely being accepted to one session should debar you from the next session, to give other people a chance? If acceptance depends on being able to rally a large number of avatars willing to TP in on your behalf then, yeah, obviously you’re going to get the same set of ‘popular’ people every time. That doesn’t sound terribly fair either. Your answer to not being popular enough is to… become more popular? OK, let’s say you join some kind of syndicate trying to get multiple kids in at once; the only rational response to your attempt to manipulate the system is for the cool kids to band together and recruit even MORE people. I don’t see how this strategy changes anything, apart from reinforcing the clique mentality and crashing the sim sooner.
People tend to confuse ‘random’ with ‘fair’. Lotteries aren’t fair, and by the sounds of it this wouldn’t even qualify as a lottery.
@12
Poor you, didn’t get into camp. So mad that you rage like a pre-teen who was next in line to get Justin Bieber tickets and they all sold out before your turn. Cry me a river.
Not all of us are in the FIC…I have no clue who or what it is about. *shrugs*
Since when is #9 a secret?
HAHAHA opps! I meant #5! Since when is #5 a secret???
Every camp it’s the same thing over and over again with the secrets please do us as a kid community don’t try and go to camp if that’s how you really feel about us as a community we don’t need it. Grow up and get over the fact you didn’t get in,I didn’t get in either and posting crap about Jill and Gattz everytime is shameful.
a grown up playing a kid telling a grown up playing a kid to grow up….LOL
Do us a favor*
