Jenhavins | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 12:26 pm     Hi all! Just a Naked Plank Walker stopping in to Wave Hello and grab a Rum Runner! I am not so sure that nakedness and Rum mix very well this early in the day |
Wendo | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 01:40 pm     Ah, I see I got on a fun team! Yeee haaawww! Who cares if we win, as long as we're having a good time, right!? LOLOL! Whit, don't worry about letting the team down at all. This is just a game and it's just for fun. I've never been very strong at these games, but it is fun to play. (Well, I did win one of the games, for TAR#3, but it was total LUCK.) Good to see Lumbele, Redstar, and Immikeswfe here! I see you all are ready to par-tay. Lovin' all the pictures you all found. Maybe I'll make some to post here. (For those who don't visit the BB4 forum, I like to play and make pics sometime. Here's a link to what I did this year, if you're interested: http://home.earthlink.net/~wsjenkins/ I like that second ship picture too, looks like everyone is having fun. And, that's what we're going to have here. Yipee! Oh, and to answer some questions: 1. I am only on this team, the RR's. 2. I have played Deadpool before as well as Puttergirl's poll. 3. I, too, have watched them all. Some more intently than others though. Just three more hours until the show! Get excited! |
Alaginger | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 01:57 pm     Couldn't resist showing this to you guys!!!

Redstar | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 03:35 pm     Wendo, I loved the baby pics when you first posted them! (Of course, that's back when I was still trying to be interested in this edition of BB...) I hope you bring some of that TAR luck to us! |
Spitfire | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 03:50 pm     Hi Rum Runners!!! I'm just stoping in to pick up my drink before I walk the plank nekkid.  |
Redstar | Thursday, September 18, 2003 - 03:57 pm     My secretary gave me a bottle of my favorite rum (Tortuga Gold) to celebrate the start of a new Survivor series! It should be just enough to have one drink each episode. Tonight - Tortuga Gold and orange juice. Yo ho! Yo ho! A pirate's life for me! |
Redstar | Friday, September 19, 2003 - 09:00 am     WHOOOOHOOOO! We're not in last place!!!! Don't hang the jib, Mateys! Thar still be plenty of points booty to be had, and by thunder we shall get our sea legs yet! Don't strike the colors yet, Mateys! Week One team summary by Rank/Points: Rum Runners 28/429.54 Wendo 28/141.33 Redstar 28/141.33 Immikeswfe 94/49.63 Lumbele 99/49.08 Whit4you 103/48.17 Our team goal for next week: Move up to 25th position. |
Redstar | Friday, September 19, 2003 - 09:16 am     I encourage everyone to check out the spoilers, especially screen and vid caps. But always remember that spoilers are wrong as often as they are right, and in the end you must use your own best judgement! How I made my decisions for this week: The screen caps appeared to me to indicate pretty clearly that Drake won immunity. Three in particular swayed me: one of jubilant looking people beside a cannon with blue bands, one of dejected people with orange buffs, and one of people with blue bands in front of an axe with a skull (speculated to be the immunity idol). The Vote Off was a little riskier and based on rumors posted on another website by someone claiming to have visited the location right after filming and getting info from a boatman. In fact, two contestants were mentioned, and I debated a long time between the two. I judged not only the likelihood of the rumor not being a hoax based on its presentation but with how well the rumor was being accepted by other boards/sites. Once I had decided who was being voted off, I then tried to pick someone to Stay On that I thought fewer other Deadpool players would pick to maximize my percentage of points. But once again let me say that it seems to me that you must rely on your own instincts first. Spoilers are often wrong, and the show is edited to make guessing what will happen more difficult. I'm not holding myself up as an expert (good lord, I couldn't live up to it! - this is my first Deadpool!), just sharing how I made my decisions since I had a good week. I hope that when each of us "gets it right," we share and learn from each other. Wendo, since you have the most experience of any of us in a Deadpool, do you have any further suggestions/tips? |
Lumbele | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 11:24 am     Thank God for Redstar and Wendo, or we'd be scraping the bottom of the barrel with that nekkid lot. Who pickled little Spitfire in rum? Poor thing ended up with minus points. Shame on you! - NOT!LOL I have a lot of sympathy for her, since I occupy that last position in Puttergirl's game. Ah well, nowhere to go but up. Redstar, I appreciate your tips, but I will still stay out of the spoiler threads, they take the fun out of the show for me. If I am going to shipwreck it will be on my own intuition or rather lack thereof. Just hope my stubbornness won't bring the team down. I promise to vote early, so I'll at least bring in those points.LOL |
Wendo | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 02:09 pm     Redstar, no further suggestions, that's pretty much what I do. I read the spoilers here, scour the net for some, as well as see what the prevailing opinion is. And, I also go on gut feeling. Honestly, I won TAR that year because of luck. No one thought that the two who won would win, so I picked them. LOL! Luck. Lumbele, we all participate, no shame in scraping the bottom of the barrel. Shows we have fun is all! LOL! |
Whit4you | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 04:04 pm     Well luckily I didn't believe the spoilers when I watched the first show but they sure turned out right didn't they? If the next set of spoilers turn out to be as accurate i won't be reading spoiler threads after that becuase Surivor is my favorite show - if they had Survivor live feeds - I'd spend 100 bucks a month on em without a 2nd thought... So we will wait and see I'm not disappointed that the first spoilers were so right cause they didn't effect the show for me since I had no proof they were. Nornally the spoilers aren't right on - hopefully they won't be this year either. Because I do enjoy those threads when they aren't 70+ % accruate. If they end up being really accurate it'll make it harder for me. I think this year's show will be really really really good. I'm excited! Few more Q's... W 10 - Who was the sexiest survivor ever and why? W 11 - Which three from TVCH whould you pick to be on Survivor and why? |
Redstar | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 06:18 pm     Just so you know, Lumbele, I have no problem with anyone deciding not to read the spoilers and going on intuition! I promise I won't keel haul anyone for bad picks! LOL This game is just a bit of fun - and intuition may very well do better than trying to figure out if the spoilers are true! I am selecting my TVCH Poll picks before reading the spoilers, just to see where I do better. |
Redstar | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 06:40 pm     Good questions, Whit! Sexiest Survivor: Hard question - ain't none of 'em looking too good when they leave, and it's hard to get that image out of my mind! But I'd have to say Alicia Callaway of the Australia series, followed by Gina Crews of Marquesas. TVCH Noms for Survivor: Bastable - a smart troublemaker is always good viewing! Goddessatlaw - does not suffer fools gladly, but fortunately she wouldn't have her gun! Spitfire - Gotta have someone clueless to mourn the dead critters. LMAO |
Urgrace | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 09:33 am     <urgrace sneaks over the ships rail and into the booty then stealthily slips overboard into her waiting dinghy with a barrel of rum and rows away to the island> |
Lumbele | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 03:24 pm     Does anyone know which team Gracie belongs to? Maybe she'll rescue us from last place, too by pickling her crew mateys. Hey, this rum biz could turn out to be quite the cat's meow.LOL |
Redstar | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 05:43 pm     Lumbele, she's on Islandrums. I've already given barrels of rum to the top three teams and advised them to drink up before making their picks! LOL |
Alaginger | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 07:12 pm     To Redstar and the Rum Runners Team: The Scallywags graciously thank you for the offer of a barrel of rum, but we are all very much used to receiving "CHAMPAGNE"!!! However, the thought was very sweet (Yeah, Sure!) |
Urgrace | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 07:27 pm     Lumbele, we are already 'rummys' and very used to having plenty to consume, so if you would like to 'donate' some more come on over! (heh heh heh) |
Redstar | Wednesday, September 24, 2003 - 10:01 am     Wendo and Whit4you, don't forget to vote by 9:00 p.m. tonight for maximum bonus points! (I know, I haven't voted yet, either, but I will.)
 |
Wendo | Wednesday, September 24, 2003 - 03:51 pm     Redstar, I'm voting now! Thanks for the reminder. I know I'm not posting much yet. Once BB4 is over I'll definitely be here more often. By the weekend for sure. Neat GIF Redstar! |
Redstar | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 08:25 am     I have been contacted by Whit4you, who promises to vote from now on. |
Lumbele | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 11:02 am     Atta girl, Whit! We need every little point we can get. There isn't a whole lot of room for us to slip.LOL |
Redstar | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 03:02 pm      |
Lumbele | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 - 05:24 pm     Love the logo, Redstar. |
Redstar | Wednesday, October 01, 2003 - 09:07 am     Rum Runners, I have had the following correspondence with Whit4you: Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2003 09:06:32 -0700 (PDT) From: "Red Star" <red_star_7@yahoo.com> | This is spam | Add to Address Book Subject: Re: Survivor Deadpool To: WhitInWa@aol.com CC: Red_Star_7@yahoo.com Whit, I hope you get this message. According to the Deadpool rules, I cannot vote for you unless: Part A: In general, each player must make their own picks before the start of the show each week. Team members will not be allowed to place last minute picks for other members that have forgotten to vote that week. If you are going to be unable to post picks for one or more weeks, let me know who will be posting picks for you. It would help if the picks were posted early to avoid any last minute posting controversy. It would also be preferable, but not required, if the picks were posted by someone that is not on a team with you. Part B: I will allow teams to make other team members Walk The Plank if they are not voting. All I'll ask is that the team decide with a majority and post in the discussion thread before the next show begins. A booted player will still compete in the individual game. Part C: Anyone that wants to drop off a team can be replaced with another player by posting in the discussion thread. The team just has to make sure the replacement is not on another team with anyone on the team they are joining. I am very sorry that you are having such a rough time right now. I will try to get Bob to accept your email below, but if he doesn't and if you don't vote by 4 p.m. board time today, I'm afraid we'll have to replace you. You will still be able to play as an individual. I don't want to do this, so please vote! We would like to keep you on the team! Regretfully, Redstar WhitInWa@aol.com wrote: Howdy ya last week was really really bad for me - I'm currently dealing with evicting friends (for real life..) through the courts.. I realized a few hours after responding to your msg that I'd missed the deadline... I don't plan to this week.. but if I do... (if these are not in by Wed morn please post this) Here's my votes (I'm asking red to post these for me since I'm not able to access a computer) Voted off: Jon Stays - Trish Immunity - Morgan (I plan to post these myself but I'm in exile from my own house for the next week so it's not definate... please post these if my vote is not in before the deadline... Thanks) Whit I know it was a bit presumptuous for me to give her the deadline, but I feel that we need to take action if she doesn't vote. Please let me know if I was okay to do this. |
