I was going to frame things by presenting an argument for why both Lori and Mak deserve your vote. I think, though, the fact Lori said she intended to keep posting "Adven Rules" indefinitely if need be in the last challenge and Mak planned to take her alarm clock to bed so she could continue posting on the hour, says all that needs to be said about how deserving both are.

I am not going to drag this out any longer, so there will be no opportunity for the evictees to grill the finalists with bitter, pointed, vengeful questions. Mak has set up a "Reunion" thread for questions, post-game observations and the like, so, Reader, if you want to do your Susan Hawk thing, that's the place to go. Just remember to use the phrase "youze guys" a lot if you do.

Nor will Lori and Mak be required to come and plead their case to the evicted judges. I think they've already done that by the outstanding effort each has put into the game.

Finally, in addition to the 14 evicted players, I am extending an invitation to vote to both Ddr and Miss_Wings, two of my partners in crime. Also to Halfunit. She got four votes as an accomplice and was accused of being the person posting as "Mole" ( she was neither), so I figure she's perfect judge material.
A few former players are MIA or don't post in the game threads regularly anymore and may not find out about the vote in time. I'd like to get as many votes in as possible, though, so if you are in contact with people like Tish, Rabbit, Bonny, Patichou, etc..., could you let them know their vote would be appreciated. Thanks.
You have 24 hours to get in your vote. Choose wisely. As always, adven41@yahoo.ca

((((((Bonny)))))) every one of us has felt that way at one time or another on this board. It's just the way and speed of posts sometimes. I learned a couple of years ago (after 2 years of feeling slighted) NEVER to take it personally because it is never personal!

Thanks, Bonny. Sorry to hear your posts weren't acknowledged. That shirt-ripping one in my folder certainly got my attention, though. Had you pulled that earler, I'm sure Rabbit and Lance would have given you their undivided attention.

My intention wasnt to start a conversation about this. I in no way want to bring any negativity to the game that has been so much fun for so many. Im sorry I brought it up, it was just me checking in so you knew I wasn't "MIA"

Adven--do you want only the name of the person we are voting for, or do you also want our reasoning?

Adven

Friday, November 07, 2003 - 09:48 am EditMoveDeleteIP
Some are just sending the vote and others are including an explanation, Lance. Either is fine. If enough people explain their vote, I may include a general summary of the voters reasoning - without mentioning names - when I post the results.

Bonny, I probably saw your post but didn't think you wanted any response. Sorry. It wasn't intentional.

I have heard from roughly half of the eligible voters and it's close. Very close. How close you ask? Very.

Just out of curiosity, if this is a close vote, how many weeks will it take to determine who Twiggyish actually voted for and will Goddessatlaw be filing her briefs (cause I gotta load more film in my camera just in case)?

I voted, too! I think I am within the 24 hours.

Just popped in, and I am very, very unhappy to see the game wrapping up.

Will it be renewed? When is AGRA2?

It depends on the ratings, Miss_Wings, it's always about the ratings.

Well, with all of the panties with missing parts and bob, I did hear that certain groups were picketing. But I think that just served to drive the ratings up.

I've received 13 of the possible 17 votes, which is pretty amazing considering a few have only been marginally involved in the game. There are one or two others that I'd like to wait on. I'm out the door for a few hours now anyway, so I'm going to give them a little more time to find us and respond. I'll reveal the results when I return.
