Jarod Godel[]
Jarod Godel (real name, Andy Burton) joined Second Life in early November 2003, having learned about it from both the Garage Games forums and Epitaxial Playfair's LiveJournal (though, this was actually before Epitaxial Playfair officially joined). Jarod Godel has lived in various sims, and currently resides in his 4096sq/m parcel in Zoe, supported by his Life Account.
Jarod Godel predicted that Second Life would end around April 24, 2006. His prediction did not come true.

2005[]
