Oracle's About!
There is an Infinite amount of stuff I think is cool and would like to stick up here but that just depends if I have time, I hope you enjoy taking a glimpse at my Wiki page and the whole Second Life Wiki in general!!
Oracle Weatherwax is personification of me, everything a say and feel, the way I act, the things I do - It's me. I can't help the way I am - I try my best to be a good person but I don't role play or act a character. What you see with me is what you get. I don't believe emotions, feelings, desires and ambitions can be separated between a real life and a second life; although I try my best not to judge others on what the do and feel. I joined Second Life on November 24th 2007 basically down to luck when looking around for something new to do on the internet and was instantly hooked. After I got into Second Life the first thing I realized was "Oh boy, I hate my Last name! What the heck made me pick out the dumbest one ever!", However now I barely even notice it, and my wife even says "there's something about it", Don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing, but I'm stuck with it for now! Over time my SL usage grew from a few hours a day to too many hours to count a day and yeah I'm sometimes on all night (ouch), however this growth was mainly down to one factor, I met the most amazing person I could ever have imagined meeting. On April 16 2008, my life changed - I met my love ♥ Peyton Aleixandre. It started one day at OIP, when I was standing with a group of friends. From then on we became inseparable, and grew closer than anything and learned everything about each others lives. We knew we would be together forever and so were married on the 1st July 2008.
- Been on SL a bit less lately - been trying out some new things with Pey, but always on Skype and still 100% together.
- You can contact me via IM if you need to reach me. All IM’s go to email.

Out and about in SL
Interests
- I love to be social and rarely seem to type - Voice chat Rules!!.
- I love to get involved in as much as I can within SL and to help people when they need it and like to volunteer when i can - Check out the Volunteer Portal. I am a Second life mentor, which is great as it helps show people that your 'here to help' and I try my best to share any knowledge that can be helpful. I was also a Volunteer helping with SL5B this year, oh and kudos to all those exhibitors - There was a lot of very cool, creative and interesting projects there!!
- I like to switch about viewers to see which ones I like best; I am part of the Battery Street Irregulars group and am always looking for bugs!!
- Oh and here is a list of some of the Viewers you might want to take a look at...
By experience I don't like the Onrez Viewer or Cool SL viewer. Oh and silly me - check this wiki page out Alternate Viewers
What I do
I spend a lot of time in Second Life so I do quite a bit, all off my time is spent with Pey as we like to do EVERYTHING together. But here are a few ways we Spend our time in SL if you are interested...
- We Play Tiny Empires... Princess Peyton & prince Oracle :P
- Feel free to become our subjects. (We are part of the Gianfar Kingdom)
- We have dabbled in a little bit of Dark Life.
- I don't as much any more but I used to hang around at OIP, If your looking to learn about Second Life or make some new friends.
- This might be a good place to start, also if you like to use voice chat this place is generally quite chatty. :)
- Also maybe hanging around the new help islands, helping new residents.
Useful Information about Me
- You only fail if you stop trying.
- I try to help people when I can, but I never claim to know everything. So if you can show me something New then I'm open to learning :D
- I only add Friends to my friend list now, not everyone I meet, not everyone I have one conversation with and not people who randomly offer them. If you really need me for something feel free to IM, but don't be offended if I don't offer friendship or decline you offer. I'm trying to keep my list small now for TRUE friend's as I am kind of fed up with a constant flow of "what’s up's", when I'm always busy. But if you need my help, I will Always do my best to help you out!!!
- Don't offer me blind teleports; it is starting to annoy me. If you want to invite me to something please feel free to IM but please don't just Port.
- I'd rather you didn't stalk me, map me, ask to be teleported or anything else to that effect. (That right is reserved for Peyton). And to be honest when your trying to talk or spend some time with someone and all you get is IM's saying TP, TP - It starts to get on your nerves a Little!

How do you edit the Wiki??
As I start writing this section on editing the Wiki, I am only one day into editing the Second Life Wiki but felt I'd start a section on this with helpful links and solutions to the Problems I come across as I start my journey of discovery through the Wiki.
- If you want to see how a page fits together or how something is done - why not go to Edit on my page (or someone else's better page) and take a look!!
- Here is a useful list of HTML color codes and names
- Geneko Nemeth also provided me these useful pages which you might like to take a look at. Formatting help,
MediaWiki Wiki and Useful User guides for Wiki use.
- Zai Lynch also helped me out by encouraging me to look at the recent changes and a page on Wiki .
Let's Stomp those Bugs!!
Lets work together to make SL a better place by finding bugs so they can get fixed! Get started by reporting any bug's you find on the Second life JIRA. Current interest in...
LSL makes the world go Round
(Working on this section soon)
- For now see here LSL Library.
- Oh and check out Script me to get scripts generated for you.
Gallery
- I have now put up a separate Gallery page...
- Oh by the way - Don't be expecting heaps of photo's...yet, as I sort through my Inventory and folders on my hard disk I'll add some more - But that’s it for now.
Also intending to start Using Flickr.
- Instead decided to use Photobucket!
Other's Wiki Pages
First and foremost I encourage you to go check out Torley's wiki page - art if I do say so my self, as with all his work. After starting work on my Wiki page (right here), I got pretty hooked on editing pages and so have decided to work on pages (with their permission of course) for my partner Peyton Aleixandre and my brother Comrade Trenchcoat.
- Although currently these pages are nowhere near completion (and because this is a Wiki never will be), why not check them out as I progress through them.
