2014 Fall Fishing Festival

The 2014 7Seas Fall Fishing Festival runs November 14-17, 2014. Come visit us at the Diamond Synthesis/Triple J Fishing fishing spot where you can catch a Whisper Lanyard and check out our new Tally Board, which tracks both high and cumulative scores from multiple fishing contests and broadcasts results to a contest pot.

The Whisper Lanyard is a SUR custom catch. It will be easiest to catch on Friday and will become harder to catch each day.

Stay baited and keep casting!

Whisper Lanyard

(DS) Whisper Lanyard reports 7Seas fishing contest leaders, remaining contest time, and your score. Also, it warns you when you are low on bait. The lanyard lets you follow a contest by looking only at the chat window. The lanyard chats in local chat to only you.

The Whisper Lanyard is only available as a custom catch at the 7Seas Fall Fishing Festival, November 14-17, 2014 at the Diamond Synthesis/Triple J Fishing fishing spot.

The Whisper Lanyard improves the  "seahorse" Whisper by showing either that you are on the leaderboard or how many points behind the leaders you are.

Usage:

To add your photo to lanyard badge, rez the lanyard on the ground, then drag your photo to the badge where it says "Drag Photo Here". Take your lanyard back into inventory.

To use, wear (DS) Whisper Lanyard. The default attachment is "chest".  You can resize the lanyard by editing.

To change the color of the lanyard, touch it to get the menu then click "Next Color".

You must be wearing the lanyard at the beginning of a contest to get remaining contest time and your score.

If you do not want the lanyard to chat, click "Whipser Off". To resume chatting, click "Whisper On";

When a contest starts, the lanyard automatically locks to that contest board. At contest end, the lanyard automatically unlocks.  To manually unlock, click "Whisper Off" then "Whisper On".  Do this if you leave a contest before it finishes and go to another contest.

See Monster Scorekeeper.



The (DS) Monster Scorekeeper shows the top 5 scores during a fishing contest and works with either the 7Seas Fishing Contest Board or a compatible board such as the (DS) Blackboard.

The script for the scorekeeper is FREE and can be obtained at Diamond Synthesis Pots & Buckets (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Blung/234/31/21). However, you also need a hippoTELL v2.6 Noticeboard, which may be purchased at the Hippo Technologies Store (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hippo%20Technologies/114/151/44) or at Diamond Synthesis Pots & Buckets (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Blung/234/31/21).

You create the Monster Scorekeeper by copying the (DS) Monster Scorekeeper script into a HippoTELL v2.6 board.

The Monster Scorekeeper is similar to the satellite board provided by 7Seas, however, it keeps track of ties and works with the (DS) Blackboard.

MENU

After assembly, get the Monster Scorekeeper menu by clicking the board. TWO menus will pop up. Click "Ignore" on the hippoTELL menu and use the scorekeeper menu, identified by "USE THIS MENU TO CONTROL SCOREKEEPER".

You can turn the Monster Scorekeeper text on and off using "Display On/Off" on the menu. This does not effect the operation of the scorekeeper.

At contest end, the final scores persist. The Monster Scorekeeper resets automatically when the next contest starts. Optionally, you can reset the scorekeeper by clicking "Reset" on the menu.

You can lock the Monster Scorekeeper to a particular contest board. Note that this is not necessary if you are only using one contest board at a time. To lock the Monster Scorekeeper, click "Lock" on the menu. To lock to a Blackboard, click "Give Key" on the Blackboard menu. To lock to a 7Seas Fishing Contest Board, use "Plug-ins/Broadcast" on the 7Seas menu.

ASSEMBLY

Rez and edit a hippoTELL v2.6 board.

Copy the script (DS) Monster Scorekeeper from your inventory to the Content tab of the hippoTELL v2.6 board.

Rename the hippoTELL v2.6 board to "(DS) Monster Scorekeeper". Pick up the scorekeeper so you have one in you inventory.

After rezzing a scorekeeper, hippoTELL information may be displayed. Touch the board and click "Reset" on the scorekeeper menu to get the scorekeeper display.
