What the records prove

The Mall's website has gotten a whole new look, I hope you like it. Hopefully soon more features will be available for deputies (along with posting news and info on this website!).

I have decided for the time being that there will not be a price cap. In the future this may change, but for right now there are too many problems associated with it. If creators start to upload objects at insane prices this idea might have to be brought back up.

has now been created thanks to the idea of Priar. With the object viewer you can check to see if the object is too large in size, if it will touch the ground in Cybertown, and check the scaling of next to an avatar. In the future I hope to have it check for nodes not allowed in mall objects, so you know to take them out of your object.

Looks like I will be going on vacation again starting July 31st, to August 6th. I will most likely have to end up leaving in RL again for about another week shortly after that. I will have no internet access sadly. I hope everyone understands. And1Dawg and Zelta should do a fine job while I am away.

maximum of two months. After two months someone in the mall staff will pick it up. We will then contact the creator. We will wait 2 weeks before destroying to see if the creator wants to do something with the object, such as us dropping it again. This is to get rid of objects that were mass uploaded, then the creator left the city before giving permission to remove the object.

NOTE: Objects blaxxun made will be moved to 008's house shortly. They will be on sale there for anybody that wants them. They will be there until a more permanent home can be found for them.

A price cap has been suggested. The figures I have come up with do not go in effect as of yet. Please post on message board in mall if you think the numbers should be otherwise. The price cap is as following:

A quantity will go in effect for all new objects uploaded to the mall. The limit is 500. If more than 500 is re-stocked, we will set it back down to 500. If it is done twice, the object will be removed. This is not to say you cannot sell more than 500, just set more than 500 at a time.

A method was designed to drop objects in order they were uploaded. Paden for instance will add "A21" to an object meaning it was checked in the morning of the 21st. "P21" would mean it was dropped in the evening of the 21st. Once the object is dropped in a store this will be removed.

From now on if [X] is not in the object name, it will be understood that it is [RS]. This is to clear up some space for the name field.

I will be out of town, and unable to log-in to CT between July 8th, and July 16th.

Missing objects in the mall could be due to hackers, but can't be for sure. This is something I will look into in the upcoming days.

page has been created so everyone may see all the rules concerning the mall. I am sorry it took to long to make this in the first place, it should have been done a long time ago for all the newbies.

There will be a mall meeting in the main area on October 29th 2000 at 6:00 PM CT time. We will not discuss items being dropped in homes or clubs, grading systems, and hiring you. Please attend if you can!

Antique Shop, Appliance Shop, Aquatics Shop, Athletic Shop, Bargain Outlet, Bedroom Showcase

Car Dealer, Carpet Shop, Collectibles, Electronics Store

Fine Art Shop, Furniture Store, Garden Store, Gift Shop, Grocery Store

Holiday Shop, Kitchen Store, Large Item Shop, Novelty Store

Office Store, Poster Shop, Pet Shop, Toy Store, Weapons Display

I am sorry for the problem with the Remove Board the other day, the button is now fixed. Hopefully we will not have a problem again, but with the recent number of hackers causing havoc, their is no telling. The Mall Staff will try to do their best to keep the problems here a minimum.

The mall is now currently open. For those creators that may have lost objects, please be patient blaxxun is working on it. They have informed me if worst comes to worst, they will give everyone refunds. For more info please read the message on the mall's board Subject "INFO - Good news?? Part I and II".

A mall trivia contest will take place on this webpage right here in the month of December! You will have to go to the mall's message board to

originally sign-up, but after that you won't even have to go to CT.

Everyday you simply come here you will receive 3 points. If answer the question in the pop-up window correctly you will get extra points. The extra points are determined by the date. If its the 1st you will get 1 point, the 10th, you will get 10 points. First place you get 10,000 CC's, Second Place you get 5,000 CC's, and Third Place you get 2,500 CC's.

Good luck to everyone, you can sign-up now on the mall's message board but cannot start playing until December.

I have added the issue on rares being over-stocked. The punishment could even result in a banning from uploading to the mall.

Sorry it took so long, but I finally changed the rules page to reflect the making of the new Collectibles Store. Obviously the rules for this store are now posted there. Thanks to And1Dawg for reminding me to update this :)

As of today no more hold items will be accepted. There is a potential for creators to re-stock hold items when they are buying them out of MD's BP's. This creates a serious problem. For the time being if you have created a hold, you may be able to get it. We have to buy them one by one of the warehouse, and set a price on them individually for you. This is very time consuming, so in no way is a solution to this problem. Anybody with one, please post it on the mall's message board.

There will be a mall auction headed up by And1Dawg, tomorrow, New Year's Day 5 pm to 9pm city time. The auction of course will take place in the main mall area. He has around 100 items to auction off himself, and will let other people auction off other things if they remain orderly. And1Dawg hopes to see everyone there.

Much has been added to the rules page. Reasons to be punished, and ways to be punished are now listed at the bottom. Everything is explained there I think, if not leave a message in my inbox, mall inbox, message board, somewhere.

I have decided the punishment page will be a private page for deputies instead. This page will really help us keep track of people in the mall breaking rules.

This is the final increase for Mall Trivia Prize winnings. Angel wanted to increase it so the winners could buy some of those nice new homes. The winnings are now as follows:

Good luck to everyone in the final days of the contest!!

I have created another page for those creators breaking one of the mall rules. More will be posted shortly to spell everything out for everyone. I think everyone knows the rules, but I will try and put every fine little detail in black and white for everyone.

Basically you do not want to be on that page, because then you are in trouble. This will help us keep track of creators making problems, and everyone in the city can see it as well.

I now have made a whole separate page for the cleaning schedule for easy access, and everyone to see.

I would like to apologize for the error I made with having no question. It was obviously my fault, and I am sorry for this. Everyone should be able to answer the question, even those that came once already today. 3 points were deducted off those that came here once, none for those that haven't. There should have been no way anyone could have gotten the blank question right, but if someone did, please tell me. If you have less points that you did yesterday for some reason, tell me as well. Once again, I am sorry for this happening, everything should be back to normal now, and running smoothly.

Holds can now be uploaded again. They must be done through the special Hold Uploading function. You can get there by click on the Remove Request Board button on the mall's message board, then by clicking on Hold Upload button. Please do not bombard the hold upload function by uploading to "preview" your object. All objects that were accepted and rejected as holds will be posted. If the object is later rejected because of technical reasons by paden, that will also be posted.

I suppose the money just couldn't stop growing. And because some people asked for it, and to mention there will most likely be over 200 people playing soon, I have added a 4th and 5th prize. Thanks to perplexing the prize money is as now follows:

We should all thank Perplexing for the generous donation that has sent the prize money soaring!

Since there are many people with having trouble with loading the pop-up window I will give you a direct link. First let me tell you this link will only work once a day, so don't even try. The direct URL is :

http://www.mpsl.net/cgi-bin/news/mall/other/malltrivia.pl?task=question[DOWN]. Any more problems contact 008.

I know everyone will be disappointed to hear that the prize money has gone up even more for the Mall Trivia Game!! People just keep on donating. This time a special thanks to Klutz. and woodb3kmaster. The prize money is now as follows:

Once again good luck to everyone playing.

Well the prize money has gone up even more. The prize money is now as as follows:

Well should all thank some__guy for the generous contribution that raised the prize money!!

In case you are experiencing problems with trying to get the pop-up window to show up here are some tips for you. First is that if you signed-up in one browser, you have to play in that browser. If you want you can sign-up in both and use them

interchangeably, but you must sign-up in both. Second, if you delete your cookie,

knowingly or not, you MUST sign-up again. This will not effect your game, but it is very important you do this to continue playing. Last thing you may want to try is refreshing your browser. Once again, good luck to everyone!

Information on the MOE2 Awards is now posted. This page can also be accessed by the MOE2 icon to the left below the main navigation.

Everyone please remember all the new rules set in place today:

If on your thumbnail, you say you will making 75 or less of an object, all but 5 you are planning to sell must be uploaded. Meaning if you say you are planning to sell 1/60, 55 must be uploaded. If you do not announce it on the thumbnail, any amount can be uploaded

initially, and any amount can be sold. If you fail to follow these rules, your object will be deleted.

Also, you cannot put on the thumbnail that you are going to sell less than 10 of an object. If you want to sell less than 10, do not put on the thumbnail, make it unannounced. If you put 1/7 on the thumb, or something like that, your object will be deleted.

First type of hold is one for a Colony Event or game. The first thing that must be done is that your CL, CD, or NL must put a message in my inbox telling me who will be creating objects for an event, and what the event is. If this does not happen, you cannot get any holds. If a CL, CD, or NL does inbox me, you can get up to 30 objects at 10 CC's price per instance. Nothing special needs to be on the thumbnail, and where the object ends up, doesn't matter. I would like that you put 0 CC's on the object's thumbnail though.

The second type of hold is a personal hold. A personal hold will cost 1000 CC's per instance. Up to 10 instances allowed. You do not need to put any special markings on the thumb, and where the object ends up does not matter.

Yes there actually is a Mall Deputy position open. And if you have 2000 exp. points or more, you can apply. Application and more info

Just in case you missed the MOE2 awards, I have posted all

. It has all the winners from this year, and all those from last year on that page. Once again thanks to the many people that made this possible, and congrats to those people that won. I hope everyone enjoyed this as much as I did!

Remember the MOE2 Winners will be announced Sunday, March 18th at 3:00 PM CT time.

In case you missed it the MOE2 Judges were

Its voting day!! Go cast your votes for the MOE2 Awards. You have until the 15th to do so. VOTE NOW.

I would like to take a moment to say goodbye to a great deputy, and a good friend, Angel_is_a_Lady. She unfortunately had to leave us. She was a great worker, and a good overall person. If you would like to see Angel she is the Mall Manager at Goonie Town now.

In case you haven't been paying attention to anything or anybody, the mall is having another contest. Who can find Lucky??!! And who will stumble upon his golden nuggets??!! If you haven't heard,

I know its a bit late, but I guess its better than never. Have been forgetting to update the website. Congrats to Tiffers, and Musicat the newest deps. BTW, in the next few days some info on the Leprachaun hunt should be posted. So if you haven't heard about it yet, check back soon!

Should have posted here a link time ago, but I DO NOT know when it will be fixed. I have no idea

what's going on honestly. You may think otherwise since I am the MM, but I haven't really been told anything. Please be patient while they are trying to fix it.

tomorrow, so be sure to come to the mall to answer the question!!

A red line was added in the 1 z+ direction so that users can know that their object cannot be passed that line.

You remember the contest we did here on this website in December. What would you think of doing it again with questions about all of CT, or even questions from real life?? Please post what you think on mall message board.

I'm really sorry this time guys. I can't believe I did this again. I thought I had an updated question for today, but it was one from last time again. I'm really sorry about this. Like last time everyone will collect their 3 points, and get no additional points. I promise I will double-check from now on, to make sure this doesn't happen again.

By accident, there really was no question for today. That was left from the last mall trivia. To be fair, all those that answered the question correctly will get those points deducted because I said the questions would be on real life. Everyone that came to the website, will still keep their 3 points for coming to the website, whether they answered correctly or not.

I understand some of you may be experience problems with the trivia, and cannot contact me. So I have set-up a temporary e-mail at

So if you have any problems, just write to me. Can be about mall trivia, or mall in general.

You can now play the Mall Trivia game!! Good luck to all contestants. I will try to get a good variety of questions, and not just "american" questions. The movie category will be hard, and may contain mostly american subjects. Sports will contain questions on a wide range of sports, some obviously american, some not, and some world games (Olympics, World Cup, etc). History questions will contain very little to no american questions to balance everything out.

If you are having trouble to get the thing to pop-up one day, try refreshing. If that doesn't help, click on the play button for the mall trivia contest (Its the first button). That should get you going.

I would first like to thank the more than 180 people that played. It was you that made this fun, and possible.

But moving on, here are the winners. There are 4 first place winners, but no 2nd and 3rd (sorry.). All 4 people will get 1,000,000 CC's. The winners are:

I will be contacting red_5 about transferring the money to your accounts from the Mall_Funds shortly. That way 100 objects will not have to bought. Thanks everyone for playing, and congrats to those that won.

Before announcing who the new MD is, I would like to say I do not like choosing a person like this. If I could, I would hire everyone. I don't like leaving people out. But hiring 80 some people is not realistic either. At any rate, I hope you welcome the new MD, and do not feel like I do not like you because you were not picked.

Everyone please give him a good welcome, and do not chase him away. Lanneret, you should be receiving an inbox from me shortly. And to those that applied, many of you were closer than you think.

The Mall Wants You....to be a Mall Deputy. As a MD you would do anything a current MD does (including drop.). If this sounds like the job for you, Sign-Up.

Please note the requirements are that you have at least 3000 exp., and that you can go in 3D. (Sorry, you have to be in 3D to drop correctly.).

Good luck to everyone that applies, only apply once. Do not inbox me about it, or harass me in the mall, if you applied on that page, I will see it.

Version 2.0 is finally out!! This time around this one should work with everyone's computer. (If not, of course inbox me.). I completely re-did the 3D of the checker, and updated the "quick check" and gzipper since you last saw it. I hope you like the new version. The following was added:

Ability to change between large and small object modes (gives you a 3x3 grid, or 10x10 grid.)

Ability to change background color in the checker

Ability to change the color of the platform

Ability to show/hide pieces of the platform

Yes MOE is back. Go to the updated MOE page for more information.

Its official, the MOE3 Awards will take place at 3:00 PM CT time, on March 17th, 2002. I hope everyone can be there!

I think its time that I announce the judges that helped me in the MOE Awards. Unfortunately only 3 judges, actually submitted the information. Luckily though, that is more than enough. Here are the three that helped me.

Once again, thank you guys for helping me.

Its time!! You've all been waiting for it, now you can do it. MOE3 Voting. Vote for you favorite objects!

Don't forget a week from today the city will go to vote on their favorite objects in 19 categories.

Also 2 weeks from today is the MOE Awards! So be prepared!

So everyone knows, soon I will be putting up a voting feature so you guys can vote on some new possible store names. Don't get to excited yet, just want to see what you guys think would be the best idea in case the time comes for new stores.

If you are having trouble with seeing my flash movie, try upgrading to

I added this so hopefully all the links someone would need could be found there. If something is missing, please inbox 008.

Website Modified (Behind Scenes Only.) Became to difficult with files everywhere, and links everywhere. Finally got a good system down.

Store Voting is now Up! Vote for the stores you want to see in the mall. The ones that receive the top 5 votes will become actual stores.
