My way of unwinding after a long day tonight was sitting and watching Ratt, Lunita and Pilar fight :)

Trainingnight, well…sort of!
Usually on the Wednesday evenings (22:00 CET) we have a recap of the grouptraining we had on the Monday. Last Monday we practiced for the upcoming CTF against the Yakuza Clan (mid March), which was great fun and very useful. Tonight Ratt had prepared a training in using the ‘specials’ in our swords, specifically when…
A night in the dojo
Some days are less exciting than others….today was a day without any adventures, but some nice chats and fights in our dojo. Oh well, I guess life must have its quiet days as well :)
Getting back slowly
Ahh, I never find it easy to get really back fast into the fighting when I have been travelling. Odd, as I have not been away that long ! Anyway, I enjoyed watching Ratt, Oki and Nikita fight in our dojo, watching spars always relaxes me :) Even if you are not…
ImperiuM Valentine Hearts
Tomorrow it’s Valentine’s Day. The day people celebrate (or keep it their secret) love. As I won’t be home, but somewhere in a hotel, I did some preparations yesterday! I have created a small, modest Valentine’s Day gift for all members and visitors at ImperiuM Island and placed them at the landing point and at…
FFA Madness
Last night we had a full house, ehm…Dojo!, and went for a total mad FFA *Free for All*….great fun with Mellow, Eve, Utakata, Dinah, Oki, Robroy & Ratt!
Private training
A slow SL night, after an extremely busy RL working day! Karelia and I were privileged by getting a training for the two of us by Ratt…..now we know what we need to do all week……practice makes perfect!
A Piercing Heart – by Bert Jedburgh
Today I got a link to a machinima shot in Combat Samurai Island, the home of C:si (the combat system we use), made by Bert Jedburgh.It is a sort of love-story and pretty amazing, specially the soundtrack makes it great! Although the actual fighting that is showed is not really impressive (it is kind of…
An Imperial Picnic
Sometimes, with all my travels through Second Life, I almost forget what a lovely sim ImperiuM Island is! I go to all kinds of places and enjoy the rest of world a lot, but every now and then it is just perfect to sit down on our own sim, chat the night away with friends…
Ultra Violence
Ultra Violence, that is what Ratt calls an evening of total mayhem: fighting with a couple of people for hours and hours and not stopping…when you die, you simply get up and start again..and again. Well that is basically what we (Ratt, George, Karelia and I) did all evening! And it felt good ! W0000t!…
Teengrid merged with Maingrid
Last night Terrence Linden announced in his blog, they were busy transferring the teens and their lands to the Maingrid. A while ago I sent out the official statement of The ImperiuM Katana on teens in Second Life and them being welcome in our Dojo, as we are one of the few C:si Clans that…
A visit to Ishida Clan
Last night, after I finally got a bit more energy and felt my weekend sinking in…I went for a visit to Omi no Kuni, the home of the Ishida Clan. The sim is a bit empty at the moment. Well a bit. It’s empty. But the Ishida Samurai were having some nice fights anyway. Apparently…
Well Crap – 2
Am back in Holland after some very busy days in the United Kingdom. When I returned last night, with a delayed flight, meh, I just did not have the energy to login and see what I missed in Second Life. Today another long and tedious day in the office, hence no access to SL. And…
Meanwhile in the Dojo…
While busy working in RL, I parked Cait on a bench in the Dojo, so she could watch H and Uri spar :). I like watching spars when doing other stuff, it’s kind of relaxing in a weird way. The clinging sounds of the blades, the bloodsplashes..hehe! Of course I was distracted for a moment…
The armed N00bs are coming!
When I logged in briefly this morning in ImperiuM , I saw a little green dot on the minimap. I hopped over (yay, I love double-click to teleport!) to go say ‘hello’ to the visitor! I am not sure if it was a ‘he’ or a ‘she’, the name did not tell it either, but…
Ewok’s Epic Story: Resident Eternal
A few days ago, Ewok was watching me spar with Ellie in ImperiuM . Well, I thought he was just watching…turned out he made another set of very artistic photo’s and put them in his Epic Story, Resident Eternal! (Still have not figured out the storyline, but I do love the pictures..lol!)
