Second Life MBA Class


I have been drafted in to sort out some odd little technical quirks with the simulation in Second Life. It is now being used by the current MBA class. Nice to see that the edicts that students should not appear as non-humans are being ignored. We seem to have a rich collection of furries... plus a robot, who I think is Japanese, so no cultural stereotypes here!

The simulation is set up with high inventory and low resource utilisations, just to make sure it does not spiral out of control while students are getting acquainted with it. But this means it takes time for sales managers to realise that cutting prices a bit will start to increase sales and thus get the factories running more efficiently.
