おめでとうございます。
江戸でお正月を迎えてから10年以上になります。この神田明神の奥が私の家だった。
A Happy New Year! More than ten years have passed since I celebrated a new year at Edo. My house was situated just next to this Kanda Shrine.
江戸め組の組頭として（全員そうだったんですけどね＾－＾）初詣に来られる方のご案内をしてました。
絵馬の奉納が出来て、参拝者は自分のSSをアップすることが出来ました。
プリムの自由度がある江戸ならではのイベントでした。まだスカルプとかない時代で、上の神田明神は8000プリムくらいあったのでないかな。
As a chief of Edo Me-Gumi (everyone was a chief though), I was working hard as a guide for guests coming for New Year’s visit to a shrine. It was possible to dedicate votive pictures with snapshots that the guests took. This could be only possible at Edo which has ample usable prims. At that time there was no sculp structure, so the above Kanda Shrine could have more than 8.000 prims.
江戸12SIMがオープンしたのはその前年、江戸城だけで4SIMをフルに使った巨大構造でした。
The Edo 12 SIMs were opened the year before. It was a huge structure that contains the Edo castle using 4 SIMs only for it.
オープンしたころの江戸12SIM。め組になってから地図作って覚えて、、どこでも案内できるように＾－＾
五重塔はあとで浅草寺の左手に移動し、跡地は江戸博物館になりました。家賃30L$の長屋はまだ出来ていない。
The EDO 12 SIMs at the start. I made this map to guide guests to any place. The five-story pagoda was moved next to the Sensoji Temple later and the Edo Musium was built at the vacant spot. The row house with rent of L$30 was not built yet.
毎月一度、お祭りがありました。ライブだけでなく、いろいろなアイデアが！
スポンサーのセカンドコア社、RLのコアプランニング社が豊富な資金を提供していただいてた＾－
There were festivals once a month. Not only live shows, there were many various ideas. The sponsor a company Second Core, Core Planning in RL, was kindly providing abundant funding.
プロの歌手の方々も出演し、トークもある本格的な「ライブ」でしたね。
The live shows were full-fledged ones with professional singers and talk shows.
お祭りの度に楽しいグッズが配布されました。
乗って飛べる鯱、キツネが沢山担いでる神輿、ラーメン早食い競争（優勝賞金10,000L$!)ではラーメン型のバイクなど＾－＾
遠くに、まだ名前がついていない新東京タワーが見えています。
There were interesting free goods at every festival, such as flying golden dolphin, a full-scale portable shrine with many foxes holding it, or Chinese-noodle-bowl-shaped bike at noodle eating contest (the prize was L$10,000!). Far away, there is the new Tokyo tower that did not have the name yet.
合同結婚式も。結婚したカップルには江戸市内に住居が無料提供されました。
このうちの一組が、その後お隣さんになってずっとお友達のToshihikoさんと465Junさん。
6人家族でしたね。ずっと一人だった私を家族同様に扱っていただいた＾－＾
There was a joint marriage ceremony. The married couples were provided with a free house at Edo. One of them was a couple of Toshikiho and 465Jun who became my best friends later living in the house next to me. They are a family of six, and kindly treated me like a family member.
め組には早速応募して、神田明神の隣に社宅？をいただきました。
実際に火事の消火をしたのは2度だけで、仕事は主に江戸市内12SIMの見回りと案内。
放置オブジェクトをリターンしたり、無断で住み着いた外人さんを報告したり、長屋の夫婦生活で大きな声を出すカップルにIM使うよう注意したり＾－
週報で毎日の活動を報告、寄り合いにも参加し、お給料をいただいてる分の仕事を一所懸命＾－
I signed up for the Me-Gumi soon and got a company housing next to the Kanda Shrine. Me-Gumi is a fire brigade at Edo, but did firefighting only twice. Daily jobs were to circulate the Edo 12 SIMs, to guide guests, to return uncontrolled objects, to report persons living without authorization, or to advice couples to use IM when doing private action in a row house. ^-^ I wrote weekly report describing daily activities and joined monthly meeting, was working hard to be worth my salt.
毎月新しいイベントを企画された方々、ありがとうございました。
RLで連絡オフ会議があり、め組からも代表が参加していました。
Thank the officers for making various events every month. There was a liaison conference every month at RL, and a representative from Me-Gumi also attended.
このころはメイン会場のすぐ裏手に住んでいたので、出勤も楽だし、自宅にいても誰か来るとわかった。
海外から団体で観光にこられた方々もありました。通訳が役に立ってた時代＾－＾
At that time, I was living next to the main stage, so it was easy to commute and to realize whenever guests visited. There were several sightseeing groups from overseas. My interpreter skill was effective for that.
江戸のイベントは、毎回の賞金も大きかったんですね。
企業としては些細な金額でしょうけど、企画実行の工数が大変だったと思います。改めて感謝！
The prizes for monthly events at Edo were not small. As a company, the amount was not so serious but the labor for planning and managing should be important. Thank you again!
1年近くたって、やや低調になってきたかな、という感じ。
SLもピークを過ぎて、急激に落ち込んでいたころ。江戸を訪れるお客様も減少気味でした。
About one year passed and it became somewhat stagnated. SL passed its first peak and was getting down at that period. The guests at Edo tended to reduce.
越年祭といっても、江戸の忘年会みたいになってしまった：：
集まったのは江戸関係者と住人だけだったようです。それでも楽しい忘年会でした＾－＾
It was called a festival but actually it was a kind of a year-end party for Edo officials and residents. But it was really joyful one.
春には江戸一周年記念祭、これもイベントというより内輪のお祝いといった感じ。
最後は恒例の花火大会ですが、参加者がそれぞれ手筒花火を抱え、水平撃ちまで出てきて大喜び！
結局これが最後のお祭りになってしまったようです。
その翌年には江戸SIMは閉鎖になりました。SLの最初の繁栄期の終りで、参加企業のほとんどが撤退。その後第二のピークが来るのですけど・・・
At the spring, there was the first anniversary. Also, this was rather not a festival but an inner party. The finale was fireworks as usual, but this time hand-held firework tubes for everyone. Someone started to shoot horizontally and made a joyful mess. As a result, this was the last festival at Edo. Next year, the whole Edo SIMs were closed. That was the end of the best days of SL, and many corporations moved out. SL hit the second peak after then though…
これは最後の夏に行われたささやかな盆踊り大会。
広い江戸の中に設置された会場がちょっと寂しげです：：
This is a Bon Festival Dance held in the last summer. Comparing with the huge Edo SIMs, the site seems a bit lonely…
私にとって江戸は青春時代だった。キスされそうになったらどうすればいい？ 目は閉じるの？
ひょっとして結婚申し込まれたら？ オフ会へ行ったら素敵な方で、交際が進展したら？
なんて夢を見てましたが、どれも実現しないまま、年月が経ってしまった・・・
前にも書いたように、今のSLは、何かする場所ではなく、何か作る場所になったみたいです。
メッシュボディやアニメッシュが流行してますけど、それ使って何するのかな、っていう感じ；；
今年はSLにとって新しい良い年になりますことを！
For myself, the Edo was my vernal years. How should I do if I were going to be kissed? Shall I close my eyes? What shall I do in case I were proposed? How would I do if I were attended an Off-site meeting and met some cool guy and asked to see privately? I dreamt of so many cases but none of them came true and time passed… As I wrote before, now SL has become a place to build something, not to do anything using it. The mesh bodies or animeshes are popular now, but I wonder what they do using them? I wish this year will be a new good and one for SL.
