MMO Calendar shuns Second Life

The MMO Portal, a site that covers MMOs including Second Life, has created a MMO Calendar for 2007. I saw this posted on our parent site Joystiq and was excited to see what image they used to capture the feeling of Second Life. I was also wondering what month Second Life would have gotten. I can imagine images of the Winter Festival in December, maybe pictures of avatars dressed up for Halloween, or possibly some adult fair to bring in Valentines Day in February.

So, what image/month did Second Life represent. Sadly none. While the calender's sales go to benefit the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and it seems a high quality and interesting calender, why was Second Life left out. With a line up of the following:

  • Dark Age of Camelot
  • Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach
  • Eve Online
  • EverQuest II
  • Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising
  • Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar
  • Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided
  • The Chronicles of SpellBorn
  • Ultima Online
  • Vanguard: Saga of Heroes
  • Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
  • World of Warcraft

    Who should we have bumped? What month should Second Life represent? What image would best represent Second Life?

    As a side note, the calendar does seem very nice and I do plan to purchase one, as I need a calendar. Also I love it when getting something I need can benefit charities like St. Jude. It's like having all of the personal reward of giving with none of the sacrifice.
