G'Day everyone.
So far we're about 80% there to connecting the Avatar Toolbox to the GRID ('Live').
And we're about 45% through linking previous accounts to their new accounts.
Foundation Residents? We're getting there as fast as we can, please note the Avatar Toolbox going live needs to be completed first. But I can patiently say it is still on track for today.

So I'm confused. Are we all pawns in a scheme to buy in early as land owners of this grid? Is that why we're all rushing to join?
Allow me to further explain. I thought that by Foundation Resident, it would be like an exclusive little beta club similar to the oldbies of Second Life. From what you are saying now, Foundation Resident seems to mean something similar to a Charter member, when Linden Lab announced a special (limited time) lifetime premium offer before coming out of beta.
From what I see, OLG is still very much in beta. As I explained it to a friend, it seems as if we're on a free trip to Vegas courtesy of a timeshare pitch presentation. However, I don't see any gambling, shows, or liquor. I do believe that the strippers will still be present, though.
I guess what I'm asking is what our purpose is for being there. Are we beta testing? Are we supposed to buy land in order to stay? Do we have to buy land? Will the prices raise after this? Will you be closing access after this "pioneer landgrab" round?
