I like Rum Runners or Scurvy Dogs for team 24. That makes the vote: 2 votes Rum Runners, 1 vote Scruvy Dogs. Whit, Lumbele, Wendo, what strikes your fancy for a name?

Maryk: Do you want on another team now, or should I put you on a list in case we need to finish a team just before the show on Thursday night?

Marcie_B: I'll get you on a team soon. If you have anyone in particular that you would like to team up with, get them to post over here and join the fun! :)

Remember to vote by Wednesday 9:00 PM board time to get 30 bonus points (you may still get 20 or 10 after that time).

Howdy Red ... I like Rum Runners... I was thinking it'd be fun to be called "Winners" then whenever anyone refered to us, or we refered to us we'd be refered to as The Winners..hehe. But unless that idea really stricks others fancy.... I'd like to go with Rum Runners.

Oh and Wendo - sorry wasn't ignoring you didn't see your post this morning when I was listing team members... :)

Wendo

I'm fine with whatever team name you all want to choose. But Rum Runners sounds good since it's in the lead. Let's do it. Looking forward to playing.

Didn't think that at all Whit! :) Looking forward to playing... bring on Survivor!

Bob - you need a folder for you (so we can make comments to you and thank you etc....)

Comments for Bob (or something to that effect)

Yoohoo Bob, can I make a suggestion? Can we have a rule that if someone on your team has not posted a guess by an hour before show time that the other team members can agree upon and submit a guess for them? This way teams would not be overly penalized by someone that joined a team and then dropped out or by someone that just gets sidetracked by life and can't get to the board to submit a guess.

Also, if someone hasn't made a guess in 3 weeks can we make them walk the plank and sign up a replacement team member?

Bob: Is there time for one more player? Looks like team 25 is filled up.

I have my votes already and just need a team. I'm ready with my eye patch and parrot, just need other swashbucklers. THANK YOU.

Hi

I'm new here ... saw the thread on the BB4 discussion page and thought I'd hop on over to play with everyone! ;)

Are there any teams available?

Cooki

I would like to join a team as well if there are any spaces available. Thanks!

I have never played, but I would like to join if there is still room.

Hi Ladydewtal, Cooki and Prism72. I'm new at this game too. It seems like a simple game.

I think Bob2112 will write to us tomorrow morning and get us on a team. Have fun and good luck!

Hi Pannie :)

Thank you! This looks like it'll be a lot of fun.

Ahoy Bob2112: I hope that to earn 30 bonus points is for voting by Wednesday 9:00 PM board time is Pacific standard time. It appears that way to me. I live in California so PST deadline works best for me. Thanks.

Prism72: can you believe Survivor starts in 2 days!?!?! yeah! Got your vote selections in mind?

Here are the latest team names and player additions .

Rum Runners
Whit4you, Lumbele, Immikeswfe, Wendo, Redstar

Team 25
Webkitty, Polypody, Redpen, Marcie_B, -----

Team 26
Pannie, Prism72, Cooki, Ladydewtel, -----

Pannie: Yes, board time is Pacific standard time, so you should be all set!

Whitney: Thanks for the thought about the thread, but posting any comments, complaints and/or compliments in this thread is good enough.
Thanks to all who have made this game fun, even beofre the first episode! I think we have exceeded the limit on threads for one game!

Maryk: I'm still holding on to you in case we need a player at the end, but if you see a team with people you want to team with, go ahead and tell me to put you on that team. Otherwise, you may get on another team at the last minute Thursday or you may not. Just let me know. :)

Azriel: There are 2 issues with letting others place a players vote at the last second, if they forget.
  1. If you vote poorly for the person, they could get a negative score that week and it would affect their standing in the individual game. Some weeks you will end up worse off than if you didn't vote. Ack!
  2. Many people are are several teams, so which team would be allowed to place their votes?
For now, I'll ask that each person make their own votes.

As a consolation or compromise, I will allow teams to make other players Walk The Plank if they are not voting. All I'll ask is that the team decide with a majority and post in this thread. A booted player will still compete in the individual game.

Also, anyone that wants to drop off a team can be replaced with another player by posting in this thread. The team just has to make sure the replacement is not on another team with anyone on the team they are joining.

Good ideas, Azriel. Hopefully team members will always post or remove themselves from the team ahead of time. :)

2 days! Yipee! I'm so looking forward to some GOOD "reality" television. :)

Oh boy, better go make my picks...

No problem, Pannie!
Welcome to the otherside of the board (assuming you were BB only before now).

Rum Runners: You now have a team folder.

Teams 25 and 26: Start thinking of team names.
You should each get a 5th player before too long! :)

Pannie

to Team 26: When I think of pirates, I think of the parrot on the pirate's shoulder. What about a team name like Parrots Beak, Parrots Rule? Ok, those aren't clever. What are your ideas?

p.s. Scurvy Curvy just came to mind since we are all gals, right?

Polypody

Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 09:31 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Thanks Bob for all your work!

Team 25--anyone have a name for us?

Prism72

Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 09:34 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I like Parrots Beak; it has a nice ring to it. Actually, I think it is very clever.

Polypody

TEAM 25-----still thinking-not good at this--

Pieces of Eight or Plank Walkers?

Any suggestions?

Add my name to team 26. I would love to be part of your team!

Pannie

Oh, you are too kind! <blush> It sounds like parrot's speak a little. Wonder how we connect with Cooki and LadyD? Maybe they'll check this out tomorrow, and reply.

Hi KnightPatti: Welcome aboard! How can we save you from the hurricane heading you way??

What are you thoughts on team 26's name? Do you like Parrot's Beak for a team name?
