If I had to insert someone, I'd have to say its Ocean or Adven but I would hesitate because they seem to be connected to one or more houseguests but I like their range of posts so they'd be good contributors in the house. I think with only 30 days, we should keep to not growing the house but getting to the end so we can do a good review of this beta test. Otherwise, if we keep adding people we'll be doing this at Christmas Eve and the kiddies will get coal in their stockings.

Vasix doesnt matter what you think it is the players who decide. Would it be good if they picked Ocean, you bet. I don't know if they know him. My guess is they will pick some person who will just go in the room and say we love you Roger, We love you Luke, Vykin is a •••••••. That will be the level of the dialogue you will see.

nor are seven red dots good or bad in this world?

I'm not sure a new HG would have much affect and may get backlash from the posters for being an imposter.

The host suggested that someone be invited in for ten minutes only. This is not a new house guest. Just someone who can go in and tell players whats going on in the world. I think Ocean would be a great person or even Guru. It sure would make things interesting. He certainly wouldn't pull any punches.

What, to me is so wierd, is there are many posters who seem to want a very vanilla type game. They don't want anyone who posts anything negative and want everyone to agree with everyone. That seems pretty dull to me. Where is the excitement of the game???

Vasix - thanks for the support for insertion (sounds kind of weirdly sexual, doesn't it?). I don't think I'd be the best choice and wouldn't go in, anyway. I just don't follow the day to day happenings in the Game itself closely enough and, thus, don't feel I have the information base required to go in and contribute effectively.

Norequerdo - I actually agree with you (surprise! surprise!). Those who have been frequenting the boards the longest - Arreal, Moondance and Roger, for instance - will tend to select posters they know quite well and like and the rest will probably just go along with it. I don't think that's a bad thing, though. Someone like Jana, for instance, who I think stands a good chance of being selected, isn't confrontational, but she's a wealth of information when it comes to this board,is likable and stands her ground when she sees something she doesn't like. And, if you're hoping things get a little edgy, she doesn't appear to be too happy with Xenia, either.

Noslanna would be their best bet. She or Sandy have done the live feeds all this time.

IMHO, if tis news they want, get one of those two. Then again, I doubt they know who is doing the live feeds (unless Roger takes a quick peek on his 10 minute ramble, and why should he?)

May I asked what you think someone is supposed to do in the house for only ten minutes?

If you are going ahead with this, how about presenting the BGs with a list, some people they might know, others not? It might add a little spice.

well if someone is picked to go into the house, and this is just a suggestion. create a folder where each person here can possibly pose a question, or give info to a favorite, and the person chosen will sit and type their little buns off in the red room I guess or internet cam room. They could start by saying to the HGs, greetings from the outside, everyone got together and would like to ask a question or make a comment. you could answer questions in your posts.

Norequerdo - I like that suggestion. Ten minutes will be wasted on small talk if there isn't some sort of organization of ideas out here.

Well my original idea here wasn't to have someone go in for 10 minutes and share outside information. Just for them to have a visitor. A guest, someone who comes in from outside and joins in their convo's for the weekend - laughs with them, jokes with them, perhaps offer them some ideas / suggestions on how to make it more fun for those on the outside to watch. Giving as little "outside" information as possible during the visit. Enough will come out inadvertantly that there'd be no point in giving it intentionally.

They really do feel like they are "seperated" and it would really feel like having company over to them. It would be alot of fun to see the chat after the company leaves. Etc. :)

I'm not saying I don't like the 10 minute idea - it's just a different concept then the one I mentioned here - was hoping a few would give feedback on the "weekend visitor" idea and if it's a good one or bad one etc.

I didnt realize the host said it was for a weekend, maybe I am confusing things with Roger. I thought it would only be for ten minutes or so. I am not saying anyone should give outside information although I am not sure what information is out here that they can benefit by. I am just saying if it is only for ten minutes I dont think it should be wasted with "kisses roger", "I love luke" "I love Vykin", etc., or even that it should have negative posts (and you know I could think of plenty). If the hosts are allowing outsiders into the game for ten minutes I am sure they have thought it through and want to add another twist to the game. As I said the posts could be in a folder and the hosts can review it and can approve or disapprove posts. It was only a suggestion.
