I've already stated my reasons for the "polling of jury" for ArReal so wont repeat it here.

Anyone who voted for Tali and doesn't mind admitting it please reply here - with a quick "why you voted 4 her IF you wish" this is NOT a bash tali thread - a simple reason will do.

I'll go first

I voted for Talisker - because I felt she blatantly broke the rules and did not take responsiblity for it.

(my boyfriend also voted for her but will have him respond himself when he gets home)

I voted for Talisker because she has yet to accept any responsibility for her part in the "scandal".

Bah! I've voted talisker 2 times... Already stated my reasons on another thread.

To clarify - Once on the first vote.
Once on the second.

I voted for Talisker -
1. I voted for her in the first vote because of one very inapprorpiate post and not participating as much.
2. I voted for her in the second vote because of the inappropriate post, her actions surrounding her being caught as a "mole", placing blame on others because she was found out by everyone, not participating as a part of the group but only to the voters.

I realize now the first time she had a very legitimate reason for not particpating at that time, however, the second time I don't know of any reason for her not to participate except that she seems to think others are hostile toward her when in fact they have been supportive of her, possibly because of her previous board moderator role and they like her and there is not a thing wrong with that. (BTW, as Gail the moderator I think she did a great job along with all of the rest of the TVCH/BBFC group.)

This is too much like BB, you can't vote for all the ones that you want out right now. But as far as the one I want to see out the most it was her -the others will just have to stand in line and be voted on next time they are up for banishment.

I voted for Talisker in the new poll. I voted for her in the last poll as well, before we found out she was Gail.

i too voted for her on both polls. i can't remember the first reason but on the 2nd it was because she is playing the victim in this scandal. it wouldn't have happened if she hadn't made 3 bad decisions. 1)to enter the game under false pretenses,2)to invite another BG into a private chatroom, and 3)to tell vyk and arreal who she really is, to the exclusion of the other BGs.

so far she has not admitted ANY responsibility for HER actions, except for trusting someone to keep her underhanded ploys a secret.

i liked her as gail, the moderator, but i'm really having a hard time now. i'm hoping this isn't the real gail.

I voted for her because she's being such a whiney brat about the whole thing... insulting arreal... she made bannishkearie.com, she was battling with her pre-game, she's the one who out of the blue admitted to arreal who she was... really, who's fault is all this? ArRealHeadache, as she called her? No...

Furthermore, I'd expect better behaviour from a MODERATOR than whining and moaning about it... you'd think someone with responsibility on this board would at least act with some dignity on this board...

Oh gawd - Neil will now have to prepare for another lawsuit my S/O Has decided to sue for alienation of effections (guess he thinks he's lost his girlfriend to this site - he holds Neil fully responsible for it) As if Neil costing him his soulmate wasn't enough now he can't even sign ON LOL. I asked him to sign on to confirm his vote - and he's no longer a registered user. I am assuming it's because we are on same computer and same ISP - I mentioned earlier that we'd be more then happy to call Neil on our dime and confirm we are not "one and the same person" :) Neil just don't GET Me going on the phone I talk about 10 times faster then I type LOL!

The first vote was for Xenia (I do not like troublemakers) & Mantastic (lack of participation). When we were allowed to vote again I changed my vote to Tali. She will not accept blame for her actions and she should have known better than inviting other BG's into private chats. If she did not want anyone to know she was Gail the Moderator, she should have kept her mouth shut. I believe Arreal & Vykin were wrong to engage in the private chats, but Gail was the instigator. Also, the banner that flew about it being much ado about nothing was a sham. Does the Host have her head buried in the sand? This is all everyone has been talking about on the Boards for 3 days. Give me a break!!!

I plead the 5th ... LOL. No actually I feel if you want to share who you voted for that's your business, and if you don't that's your business to.

I have decided to keep who I voted for to myself, until maybe after the game is over with. And then only if they ask for this info themselves, will I tell them if I voted for them or not. I want to enjoy the game, and not spend my time defending, or explaining, why I voted for this person, and that person.

Jordon ... I mean Whit, Boy am I going to get it now for getting you two confused, (I was only kidding) are you trying to get a WAR started out here or something ... LOL :)

Hmmm only 8 of the 34 posters have snuck in here and let their presence be known - hope they aren't worried about the big bad moderator - holding it against them when she returns LOL.

If any of the other 24 who've voted are reading this - if you don't wish to post your specific reason for voting for her that's no problem. It would be helpful if you would say if you wanted this Revote to change your vote to Tali - or that your vote had not changed - it was already for tali in the first poll.

Thank's for your time -

MissLibra - no I'm not just trying to make sure that IF ArReal gets banished on Monday - she, I and anyone else who might be as confused by all of this as I am - Will understand why SHE ended up being the one banished do to a REVOTE (one I thought was created because Gail had broken rules here)

I think it's interesting that you are comparing ME to Jordon because I"m asking those who wish too - to share this information with me. Jordon on BB was asking the Houseguests to share who THEY nominated - THAT has already been done and posted. All the BGs nominations were publically displayed for all to see. That's an entirely different issue.

Since you don't care about this issue I am trying to resolve why bother even reading or discussing the thread. Those who wish to help me figure this out will those who don't wish to won't.

Prior to this Revote there were threads going on here regarding who's voting who out etc. The ONLY difference here is this is a REVOTE - caused by one of the players clearly breaking the rules. She's up against someone who'd already CLEARED the first vote. That's the only difference between the other "who did ya vote for" threads and mine. The real issue I think - is perhaps a concern of how it will "look" if out of say 45 voters only perhaps 12 or so mention they wanted to revote and vote ArReal out. That would LOOK bad - I suppose. Perhaps that is the concern here?

Makes no sense for your concern to be that I am asking those who wish to - to share their votes and if it they wanted this revote to change their vote. Why would that concern you? Why would it make you want to refer to me as "Jordon" (implying I assume that's a bad thing.

You've already suppled the answer I am looking for - in aknowledging you voted - and you don't wish to share that vote. Thank you. (Since you are not interested in the results I am gathering there's no need for you to bother with these two threads anyomore - see ya on the other threads! )

(bet you peek in later to see the results <grin>)

I had not cast my vote yet in the first poll. At the time I was wavering between ArReal and Tali.

I made my decision to vote Tali this morning after I continued to read her cutting snips in reference to ArReal. It just struck me as being so immature for Tali to do this. I was able to vote immediately.

I have been out of the loop for a few days and am getting caught up. I voted for Xenia and Mantastic first round (Xenia didn't seem like she was having a good time at all, and Mantastic wasn't into the game). I voted for Tali in the revised round because plain and simple, I feel the rules were broken. Xenia seems like she has loosened up a little and I feel she had some great input for the 4th challenge).

It is true that I had my favs before the game started, and as the next couple sets of noms come into play, It will be much harder to decide. Tali was easy this time.

Ocean perhaps you are right. Gail is a moderator on this board, she's good friends with a whole lot of the folks here, and especially the other moderators and the host. To assume that the revote was a level playing field in any way shape or form - was an error in judgement on my part wasn't it.

We have a Revote with a poster and a moderator with alot of support behind her. I guess it should have made alot of sense to me that the revote wouldn't have been for folks wanting to vote Gail out for breaking the rules - but to vote ArReal out because that is what Gail wanted.

But then we knew that before the game ever started didn't we? She told ArReal before the game even STARTED that she was going to get her banished.

I have no idea why I thought that the revote might be played fairly LOL - it's been made very clear - that breaking the rules is ok here. And the vote is clearly showing that the posters here agree with it and THAT is all that really matters isn't it?

I have to wonder why you even CARE about this thread why your even READING it? Nothing better to do - then read a thread about something you have no interest in? Or spend your time - telling me I am wasting MY time.

I am simply trying to adjust to this beta test - and the ongoing process of a game with no real ethical boundries.

I am getting there quickly - I only wish I were on the INSIDE - I'd have MUCH more fun over there once I totally accept their are no ethical boundries expected here LOL.

I am sure most here just want me to let this drop, let this gal get voted out because of a revote that would have never taken place had Gail not broken the rules here. I guess the difference between me and some other people is that I care about people and their feelings - so it's harder for me to just let it go.

The BGs want to let it go (based on the information they have) Those on the outside apparently want to let this go since nobody is stepping forward to say they agree with what I am doing here regarding the revote.

I'm sorry if I wasted any of your time - I was doing what I thought was right, no harm intended to anyone here.

Everyone enjoy the rest of the game!

Hey Whit, I just wanted to add my two cents. And perhaps some people feel the same way I do about not wanting to say who they voted for, which might be the reason your not getting all the responses, you may like.

The Jordan thing was a joke, I told you. It's like one of those things you can't resist saying. So I said it. :)

People changed their minds for what ever reason about Tali, and Arreal. If you think about it to long it will drive you CRAZY !! :) Who knows why Arreal is in the lead for banishment now. I'm afraid that you guys will probably remain confused.

I have a question for you though ... why don't you wait, and let Tali or Arreal ask this question themselves ? Who knows Tali, and Arreal may not even want to know, who voted them out.

I know these are only polls, but as you can see people are giving explainations as well, which could actually end up doing more harm then good.

Whit,
I personally agree with asking the questions you are asking. I think they are interesting and I have no problem with you asking them. I have no problem with anyone asking any questions. We all have the right to not answer if we wish.

I haven't responded because I haven't voted yet. I am still thinking about it because I am still open to change.

I thought the revote was to give everyone a chance to change their vote if they wanted to after the revelations of the Tali-Vykin-ArReal situation.

For God's sake, Whit, get a grip on yourself. Like Jenhavins, I was away for the weekend and thought I'd spend a few minutes getting caught up. WRONG! I spent the first half hour reading through a few of your encyclopedic posts. I spent the next half hour scrolling rapidly through even more of your encyclopedic posts and I have spent the last half hour trying to find something, anything, not written by you. I appreciate that you wish to share your viewpoint, but when you do so ad nauseum and in mind-numbing detail you defeat your own purpose. Leave a little to the imagination.

Katie, just read the Friday the 13th thread. Glad to hear things are okay. I spent Friday evening hiking on a mountain in one of the national parks here in Nova Scotia. There are a lot of moose up there: one too many, if you ask me, since one of them came crashing through the woods about 20 feet from where I was walking and scared the crap out of me - not a difficult task, I admit.
Annagator, you are making me feel guilty. Actually, you aren't, but if that were an emotion I was capable of, that's how I'd feel. There's a reason I won't go in the chat room - besides fear of enclosed spaces. If you're curious, e-mail me.
Be forewarned, though, the reason will shock and amaze you.

I'm a Patriots fan, Katie, but when they aren't doing well I pull for the Vikings - which pretty much makes me a Minnesota supporter.

Well I am a Viking supporter and have been for years but sometimes is it hard because of where I live. For a few years I was living in the middle of Packer territory when they were in the superbowl. I am such a Viking supporter that I order the NFL Sunday ticket from my satellite provider just so I can watch them here on the west coast. I would hate to miss a game.
