Here is a new game, what room is this, and what else
« on: May 13, 2007, 10:38:31 PM »
Here is a new game.  The main room in Seaview reminds me of three different other rooms  at least. Two of them are in a different time. Think of the windows.  I tried to take a picture but couldn't , a good picture is in 298.

The room is used at the Collinsport Gaol in 1795, when Vicky meets with various people.  I know I've noticed it somewhere else, but I can't remember when.

I was trying to think of something for this Games board, and getting nowhere, so it was neat to turn on the computer and discover this new idea.  I've got another room in mind that always interests me, but I'll save it for later.

The windows remind me of Angelique's PT1970 bedroom, at least from what I remember what they look like when I was in Seaview way back in the '90's.

The main windows in Algeliques room believe  were stained glass?  Tjere was also a window seat?? But I think there might be something like the fireplace and the doorway.

I believe Lori is referring to the Seaview set on DS (as in the house Vicki fell in love with and Burke wanted to buy) and not the real Seaview that is used as Collinwood.  :)

Oooooh!  Oops!  Well, in that case, ignore my previous reply.  The house Vicki and Burke were interested in reminds me of a cottage my aunt and uncle once owned in northern Wisconsin.  I loved staying in that place as a kid.  My aunt always fed us a ton of taffy there.

If anyone could help post pictures that would be great. I am not able to take screen shots from the DVD's, is there anyone that wants to help out. Then it could really be a picture game.

Are there any rules about posting a "screen shot"?  I know there are rules on this board about posting photographs and materials that are copyrighted... so I'm wondering about the screen shots...

I just use the alt + print screen button and it makes a screen shot of the active window - resulting in the "Real Player" logo and player controls showing...  I could crop each picture if necessary, but wouldn't go to all that trouble if it isn't necessary.

Please let us know.  Thanks...

Posting screen captures from the DS episodes is allowed.  ;)

While working on today's Robservations and captioning captures, I saw that I have these two captures from Ep #298 that seem to show off the room well:

Thanks, MB.  That was Roger's office at the cannery.  And I remember it from 1795 sets; does anyone else want to name one or both of them?  One of  those 1795 rooms, I'm sure, many DSF cousins have wished they could pay a visit to.  ;)

i believe the set was used as barnabas' bedroom. ;)

also as someone pointed out it was sort of an antechamber outside of vicki's goal cell.i can't recall a third use during 1795.

in the present the set also appears without explanation as the office of collins family lawer frank garner.


here's my personal favorite...

when burke devlin returns to collinsport in 1966 he takes a suite of rooms at the inn(which maggie sarcastically refers to as the "presedential suite".)

what number room is this?who else resides in this space over the years?

I think the Seaview room was also used in 1795 as Joshua's office.  I haven't seen Roger's office at the cannery.  Would it have been the same, 200-year-old room?
