[09:32:33] Maggie Sewell: Q8 8) WHAT IS 'HYGGE'?
[09:32:57] bo Cordoso: rnjoymreny
[09:33:04] bo Cordoso: enjoyment
[09:33:23] Maggie Sewell: WD BO
[09:33:27] Maggie Sewell: TRANQUILITY (IN DANISH CULTURE)
ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF DANISH CULTURE IS 'HYGGE', WHICH, ALTHOUGH TRANSLATED AS 'COZINESS' IS MORE AKIN TO 'TRANQUILITY'. HYGGE IS A COMPLETE ABSENCE OF ANYTHING ANNOYING, IRRITATING, OR EMOTIONALLY OVERWHELMING, AND THE PRESENCE OF AND PLEASURE FROM COMFORTING, GENTLE, AND SOOTHING THINGS. HYGGE IS OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH FAMILY AND CLOSE FRIENDS. CHRISTMAS TIME WHEN LOVED ONES SIT CLOSE TOGETHER WITH CANDLES LIT ON A COLD RAINY NIGHT IS 'HYGGE', AS IS GRILLING A P√òLSE (DANISH SAUSAGE) ON A LONG SUMMER EVENING. THESE EXAMPLES, ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT PRECISELY DEFINE 'HYGGE', CAN GIVE AN ENGLISH SPEAKER AN IDEA OF A DEEPLY VALUED TRADITIONAL CONCEPT OF DANISH CULTURE.

Funded Hosting Opportunities Available

If you are a trivia host, new or experienced, seeking a hosting venue, a couple of opportunities have recently opened up for you.

New Trivia Monkeys

One is probably on familiar ground for most who would be reading this. If you are new and would like to try your hand at hosting or would rather commit to one event at a time than to an ongoing schedule, then this is ideal for you. New Trivia Monkeys has a 6:00 to 8:00pm SLT time slot on Mondays they would like to fill as a rotating hosting position. Honey Potez will fund your game, and you keep all of your tips. Ideally, there will be a different host in the slot every week, depending on how much response Honey receives. Please contact Honey in-world if you are interested.

Arashi Cafe/Lounge

The second location is new to hosting trivia events. Arashi is an arts community and entertainment venue and gallery. Artistic Director Meeko Davi does not yet have specific time slots she would like to fill for trivia but is open to working with interested hosts to develop a schedule. Here, too, the venue will fund events, and hosts keep 100% of their tips. If you haven't been to this location before, please find some time to visit the lovely space and explore the gallery and gardens. Arashi also hosts readings, stand-ups, concerts, DJs, and other types of art and entertainment events. You may also wish to view Arashi's website and calendar on the web: http://www.arashi-do.com. Please contact Meeko Davi in-world.

TriviAid - Fiends With Benefits

Howdy, all Triviaholics! We have an exciting project in the works, and all are invited to take part. Recently, a couple of calls for participation in fundraising events have inspired a number of trivia hosts and players to contribute their time and, most likely, Linden dollars to some worthy causes.

There were two meetings called on very short notice but fairly well attended -- one on Monday evening and one on Tuesday afternoon, SL time -- in which plenty of ideas got tossed around. What we are conceptualizing is a week-long series of trivia events from which all tips or donations will be pooled and contributed to a charity selected for that series and to make a regular thing of it (once every two or three months, we'll see how it goes).

The attendees at the meetings approved the first two projects, and the dates for each have recently been released. Here is the information for those interested in getting involved (it's never too late!):


July 1-15: Benefit to raise funds for the National Wildlife Federation, which is working to save wildlife from the effects of the recent oil spill
It will probably make the most sense to have the trivia week from Monday, July 5, to Sunday, July 11, but we can address that as a group. When we initially met, the charity associated with this project was undecided but the Audobon Society had been put forward. The National Wildlife Federation, however, became the final choice. If this changes anyone's opinion of the project, don't be shy about saying so (thinking of those who approved Audobon Society here). I address CBA below. :)

If you'd like to be involved in ways other than planning the trivia events, please contact Further Monday.

October 4-10: Mind Out! to raise funds for the International Mental Health Research Organization
This one is off into the future, but the backstory is that there was some controversy with the running of the recent Black and Blue Fashion Fair, which was meant to raise awareness of mental health issues. A number of designers pulled out, and so some dedicated individuals have decided to organize a different type of event for a trusted international organization, the IMHRO.

If you'd like to be involved in ways other than planning the trivia events, please contact Cyclic Gearz.


Other stuff:

The name TriviAid was suggested by Tezcatlipoca Mistwood, and everyone who was present at the Tuesday meeting or who responded when I posted the name to Plurk has given it a vote of approval. This is a name for the project, not for a specific group of people. We are not planning to create a new group at this time, since many people have an excess of trivia groups already. Instead, we plan to use the Trivia Fiends group as our primary means of in-world communication. Joshua Schism has fitted the group out with tags that read, "Fiends With Benefits."

On a different note, an important concern that has been raised is to remain aware of the cultural impact of the charities we choose to support. We have an international community among us at trivia events. Simultaneously, however, many charities that gain high profile support in Second Life are based in the United States, and I recognize that the National Wildlife Federation is no exception. Nonetheless, the oil spill and the imperative to support its cleanup ultimately affect all people and creatures in ecosystems around the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, and our second project will specifically benefit an international organization. Because this is conceptualized as an ongoing project, we will have more opportunities to continue extending an international reach. That is to say, I know that the choice of NWF for the first project might evoke some red flags, but it allows us to connect with a larger project on the first go. And we will have more chances to diversify our scope.

We will announce future meetings in Trivia Fiends, most likely with more advance notice than the previous ones. If you want to be involved, please just jump right in. :)

Typos of the Week, May 24 to May 30

Honorary awards:

Thorn wins the award for sheer mass typoage for asking a question that the winners all typoed and everyone else seemed to copy in their own creative fashion.:
[10:52] Thornton Writer: Q16) According to Norse mythology, at the end of time, Odin will be eaten by a giant wolf named what?
[10:52] Juke Badger: femrins
[10:52] Thurina Susa: fenrir*
[10:52] Lou Netizen: Fenfris
[10:52] Sinnamon Sands: fenris
[10:52] Maxx Serendipity: fennir
[10:52] Chaddington Boomhauer: fenris
[10:52] Lotus Ceriano: fenrir*
[10:52] Honey Potez: fenris
[10:52] JoshuaStephen Schism: fennir
[10:52] Cully Andel: fenris
[10:52] Lette Ponnier: fenrirs
[10:52] Billy2Times Krams: fenris
[10:52] Thornton Writer: ANSWER: FENNIS
[10:52] Thornton Writer: JUKE THURINA LOU WITH BILLY AS CABOOSE
(Editorial note, 6/4: "Fenrir" and "Fennis" are evidently variations on the same name, so Thurina and Lotus's answers aren't actually typos. It's still an amusing instance of typo copyage for ten other people.)

There had to be one (seriously, why is this country so hard to type?)
(plus irony award to Lou and Chadd)
(oh yeah, and the question was worth repeating, too):
[16:49] Honey Potez: In what country can you find window-peeing squirrels?
[16:49] Lou Netizen: caqnada
[16:49] Chaddington Boomhauer: canada
[16:49] Olmstead Fanshaw: canad
[16:49] Lette Ponnier: canad
[16:49] Lette Ponnier: a
[16:49] Honey Potez: WD LOU AND CHADD!

And the word of the week:
[13:05] Lacey Lukas: Taurus, Camry, Highlander, Avalon
[13:05] JoshuaStephen Schism: taulurs
[13:05] Lette Ponnier: taurs
[13:05] Lacey Lukas: YAY JOSH .. TAURUS .. IS A FORD.. REST ARE TOYOTAS

[20:20] Dakota Carson: 20. If you want to see the Crab nebula, at which constellation should you point your telescope?
