Ok....unless anyone has a problem I would like to invite these people
(see front page of vday.org into SL. Especially for the performance. I
would appreciate someone writing an appropriate letter/email in this
group...not a notecard saying how much we would like to share what we
are doing..etc. and we will put ToryLynn's name at bottom. I'll find a
way to get it to these people (hopefully) and if they decide to come
in-world we can get someone to get them up and running (like Sloan or
whomever) Please reply with letter and approval to go

SALMA HAYEK, OPRAH WINFREY, JANE FONDA, EVE ENSLER, JENNIFER HUDSON,

you may wonder about some of these but they influence those we don't
reach and hopefully can.

(Ada when you get this on a spreadsheet let me know...and if you can
send it (i don't have xcel on this machine) so we can have all those
we are all contacting on a list (may want to put name next
to ,....like Lauren, Tory....etc....so we have some idea if they get
in touch who gave them the notecard even though they will contact
Tory. I havde started giving out a folder with Sponsor card, Volunteer
Card and audition card)

great....can you teach me how to do this Ina (Ada can you list the ones I gave you before). WE are going to rokk SL and firstlife too.

As you all know.....as this goes into production I will fade back. I am serious. This is an important work about a critical subject and I don't want someone to belittle this project because I am such an easy target.

Since doing my show I have had some horrendous accusations about me cast both inworld and on the net. Although untrue, there are those who are powerful enough in both worlds to influence others. I would even hope when the programs get done etc you will either decide not to list me or if so put my name in the most inconspicuous location.

I may be loud and wild but my heart is soft and caring. It would hurt me if this production suffered in any way because of me

all you do is open up the page and edit it... there is a drop down
menu that lists the revisions.

also, i would wish that you stop making such a big deal out of being a
male on a female avatar. people like zha ewery who head the
architecture working group and is basically IBM's diplomat in SL are
also like you. a number of other major company executive officers also
have this thing with guy-in-RL playing as girl av in SL

i would assume that your problem had to do with RL people being
unaccepting of an RL man playing as a female avatar. i cited several
cases where it is virtually common knowledge that respectable males in
RL had female avatars on SL, but i agree, you have a special case ^.~.

VDay rules say men can help, and you're helping A LOT.  That your avatar and theatrical persona is female - well, f#$%'em if they can't take a joke, or, even more, some of the serious messages you've been putting out there on sex and gender.  I'm also adamantly opposed to trivializing the purpose of VDay, and you're have never done that, on the contrary.   Controversy, on the other hand, is valuable, I think - if you're starting conversations it's a good thing.  Plus I have a hard time imagining you in 'fade back' mode, lol.   You get to say how you want yourself in the credits.  I also prefer that my producing role be in the background.

Ok...I am overwhelming. And I will have the Oprah contact by Monday. We will need to have something concise, cogent and commanding to send by email to Oprah's producer. We probably should invite her to come into SL if she wants (someone can make her shape, look etc if she says yes). Also invite her to broadcast the play (either live or taped) and/or attend the performance.

ToryLynn you are our leader....what is your email address. You will be the only one with access to her producer's email address. Also when you send your email and package etc (which we should all approve the content prior) you should also list your phone number etc. If this is a problem for you, someone will have to do this that can be firstlife and secondlife. We need to be ready by beginning of next week to send this out.

OK girls.......we are going BIG TIME now..........are you ready to kick some ass?

Hugs
Lauren

I am not sure what the procedure for the lists is really or where to
post suggestions, so I put it down here :-)

I approached a friend of mine today who runs a big mall in SL, gave
him the sponsors' notecard - he said he will read it later. Maybe he
is interested in putting up a donation box, the name is Dirk Klees and
he owns the Lionheart Club, Lounge and Mall.

Furthermore I wondered if we could approach the designers like Simone
or Blaze (and the others of course like Sherona ...) ? I know Simone
has been very involved with CSI - maybe she is interested in this
campaign, and Simone as well as Blaze have big shops where they even
could put up donation boxes. But I have to warn you, Simone Stern is
hard to get a hold of, she seldom answers on IMs. I could ask her in
Group IM if you want me too.

Morgue...this is a great place to post. We have a particular discussion group for PR. CallieDel is head of PR. And yes to everyone. (make sure they haven't been contacted before...check group Files....and the obivious one lists those already contacted...Callie is making a spreadsheet. And no one has reached anyone you mentioned before. GO for it. We should have all one million SL members....wanting to come, donate or be a part of this

How does the sponsorship work? Do the SL sponsors pay an amount in Linden in advance
of the production , or after ? And how much money would be expected to be donated to be
classed as a sponsor? I am thinking of asking a friend to sponsor but need to know if it is
within his means..

Dear Rowan your question can best be answered by ToryLynn (Tory Please get in touch with Dancoyote Antonelli. He will be a sponsor. Needs to talk with you etc).

But, we have an avi that is just for the purpose of collecting funds VDayAccounting Telling (it is a ToryLynn alt.). All records are also checked by Ada Radius and all funds will be converted to $ and given to the vday.org. We are also working on having a rl donation spot at www.vday.org so SL and friends can donate and they will attribute to us.

We have two types of sponsors. Tory can explain. Money is collected and we believe (ask Tory) that we can provide something to help as a charitable deduction (but I don't know if all the details have been worked out), Obviously we believe the show will be on Feb 23 but some money is just being donated because of the cause....not because of our production.

Hope this helps....at this point. I think our Vday sponsor promotion kit is explanatory...I will give you one in world now

Thanks Lauren, the question is answered in the Vday pack sponsor card, I though I had read everything
but missed that.

Lauren- This is great. I want to get started on Nazz's idea of
contacting major clothing designers to design costumes for auction
after the show. Do you mind if I add a list of the groups/designers
contacted to this list?
