Fifteen brave souls congregated in the digital hinterlands to participate in
Sherwood Forest Community Experiment
Day One on March 24, 1996. The focus of this day was to see how easy it would be to have
a multi-avatar meeting complete with discussions, a flyby of the site and walkthrough of
its features and to begin to form our rules of conduct, methods of cooperation and some
semblance of a culture of the community.
Sherwood Forest was laid out by members of the Contact Consortium using the
same avatar and citizen ID. The Consortium then assigned lots to skilled builders
and uncovered their portions. This allows simultaneous construction of one site by
several avatars!
