Souer:

Just tried Bejeweled. great game. Colorful. Certainly addictive. Similair to another game I have on Gamboy COlor (can't recall name) but with the Gem colors this is far more appealing. Love it. Thanks!

Guys, now that I guess I have rejoined the pack...I have a confession to make....Lance's comment above brought it back to me...I never did understand the GAME....granted that after BB concluded I like many I guess really had no choice but to clean up the overflow of work we may have left pile up at the office ... (how do I explain that I couldn't do something on time because I was transcribing realtime BB conversations? I mean no one would have beleived me for one!).

So Lance I can't share your appreciation of the GAME...Now I see there is a GAME II and still I don't understand...I know Zelda was one of the players...and you right as well...Fruitbat too, right? but what did the non players do?

Yeh yeh, I know, read the section on Directions...Admin, Max etc...I did for the first GAME...still didn't get it.

Maybe I just need to be able to TAPE...I mean I still have tapes of BB...started to tape over for the MOLE... saw George crying in the redRoom...when there were only 5 of them left...

Ah those days.

Scribe, just to make sure that Lance sees your questions about the game you might want to move the message to a game/discussion folder...I may try and answer about the game but would rather see what someone who knows what they are talking about says first.

So glad you like bejeweled (it is a good one to play while waiting for the players to make new posts ). My son has pokemon gold and he has been teaching me how to play it ;-)

Scribe--Fruitbat wasn't in the first game. The other you said were indeed in there.

What did the nonplayers do? Well, actually it would be best for one of them to answer. I will try to answer though. First, a number of them spent a fair amount of time bashing some of the players. Then bashing each other took place. There was quite a bit of diswcussion about the game--it seemed to go in streaks though.

Looking at the posts after getting out, it seemed clear that they had some passion about what was going on. One disadvantage of this game is no visual. Think of BB with no visual--wouldn't be worth doggy-doo. On the board, it's small enough and people knew each other that the lack of visual still allows for people getting into the game.

Hi Scribe! I left you a messege in your folder...Welcome Back! I was in Game I Zelda/Moondance and had the full experience! Kind of felt like I lived part of BB... It's a bit overwhelming to go back and read it now but it's not too late for Game II :)

Thanks guys for your responses...

Soeur: I loved the game...took it to the office...never have anytime but ocassionally I rationalize that a Puzzle Game is exercise for the mind and so I take a break...I mentioned Pokemon well because my own son who has given up video games for girls .. finds his Mom mildly amusing, not only playing but beating every Pokemon version to date...Only game that ever captured me like that was the old handheld version of PacMan (got me through a number of very tough exam periods back in __ school.

Now Lance. Thanks for finding my "comment". I remember after BB was over and the Game was created, I just couldn't get into it..and have now confirmed why that was...No video, too internal to the actual players...I lost focus and drifted away.

Again, thanks. (now the avalanche clipart has No signifigance but i just like it; I like the angel too and beleive me I have no connection to that clipart either!!! :-))

Right now it's Game II here on the board.

Scribe, have you checked it out this time around?

Another installment of The Mole and "Relationship Train Wreck" (a.k.a., Temptation Island) coming our way this week. Looking for some good Reality TV.

The local paper has a brief tech column on Sundays. Yesterday, they hyped Bejeweled and commented that you should never start it late at night or you never get to bed.

Chess and Poker are the only "real" games.:) The rest are just timekillers and antiboredom devices, in my opinion.

I remember many years ago I had the board game Othello, I loved it. Now I spend alot of time a pogo.com. I love to play Poppit and Turbo 21. If you have never been to pogo, it is really cool. They have a wide variety of games and you can chat while you play. You can also win prizes, even though I never have.

My grandfather played a dice game when I was young that I play now. It's called 5000.

Much fun!

Why O Why are you pasting in addictive games like bejeweled to this site?

Do you think we're not addicted enough to the internet already???
