Good to know I am not on your dartboard Roger! :)

I actually like (and am amazed at) how realistic this all feels here.

I am not here to win (can't win - it's a rule) - just to play the game the best I can and to learn what we can do later to make it better experience for both for the players and the viewers the next time. As any of the others know, it is very different here - unless you are actually playing the game - you won't know what it is actually like unless you play. I figure I will get to be a viewer later this week after I get the boot and see what it really looks like out there.

Next time, hopefully Big H will have someone to ask questions to for sealing up some of the leaks, gaps, ect to help make this a "truer" experience for the players. I know that there are some holes that need plugging. My first suggestion is I would like to see the next time be where everyone is totally anonymous from each other - just like the show. Like see the applications get emailed in and the selections made and new user names created without anyone in the game or outside of it knowing who is who. Then there would be the added fun of really trying to get to know each other - not just playing the match game with 10 users and 10 players like we did. Would be more interaction that way I think. I feel like people here knew each other from the board - many did, anyways. Being strangers would have another unknown dimension to factor in.

afternoon roger, tali. I don't know why, but I ws up early today, and back asleep by noon. So I just came back on, though yawning as I attempt to "refocus". I stopped by the challenge and see we have a extension. Good I need to absorb the answers and think a bit. I see Arreal got a yes to one of the questions. This is a "stumper" was sure it was a farmer who bought the almanac. Perhaps it was a similar riddle I've seen before. I'm gonna go check out the general discussions, have to post my material possession etc.

Hey Vyk--welcome to the world of the living! LOL

It looks like we are close to having the puzzle figure out. Not a lot of people around yet today--at least not at one time. hehe

I owe a couple of discussion topics an answer--I'm not looking forward to that passion one though, juts because I know how I can get into that! So much so say, and feel so strong about it. Probably too much to read for most--the idea isn't to write a book, although that's what I've got for the issue.

I owe for the perfect mate one as well.

Question answered--it was no, AND host was kind enogh to say we need to axpand the answer. Wow, that ws nice of her!! I'll look for you guys in either place, depending if you want to chat first or work on the challenge first. (personally, I'd like us to deal with the challenge, since host was nice enough to give extension--we shouldn't take advantage of a whole day extension to chat) IMHO

I'll go with the majority on this one though.

Have you seen Luke around? I haven't seen him since yesterday morning. Wonder whats up! Maybe his boyfriend and he reunited. Lol

It was a good question and I remember answering a similar one on the board during BB...

In any profession, goal or in life in general; one shouldn't ever think that there is nothing more to learn. The more you know the more tools you have to work with. Jamie is a beautiful girl with some goals but IMO her intentions are a bit clouded by the 'glamour' of the business. Often when that happens, an actor will make some bad discussions on their way if that is their intention. I feel the true passion and talent comes out once you have to perform. Sure, it takes luck, knowing the right people etc... but no matter how you get there, you must have something to sustain your position. I think this is true in life. A person is attracted to someone but if there is no substance then the likelihood of it lasting is minimal.

On the flip side ... if one takes class or classes and thinks that is enough to make it then they fall into that trap. I know a lot of actors that take class after class and do not understand why they are not a working actor ... well you have to go out and use what you have spent so much time learning!

Back to the question on Jamie ... my opinions on her...I hope she has changed her mind about classes. She will find out soon enough it takes more than she thinks. I still think she will want it though ... her intentions hopefully will change too. It's not about fame & fortune ... it is about working in a something that you love…

Sure ... you have quite a few people out there with those same intentions (fame & fortune) and make it big but if you really look at those actors ... they don't stick around too long. JMO

Thanks for providing your insights, and your personal experience to give me a look at her situation (and that of an approach to things in general--that is one I have thoughts on as well)

My opinions about her and the situation she wanted had no basis to back it up--the most flimsy of opinions---although you know what they say about opinions...

opinions are like ass holes; everyone has one, and everybody's stinks but your own. lol

btw, that last comment was not an indication of your opinion Moon. It's somethng I think of everytime I hear someone's opinion--it helps me to remember not to discount what someone said just because they don't agree with me! Kind of a "everyone else counts as much as I do" perspective.
