Has The Winner Of The Game Already Been Chosen Before It's Played Out?
Jana | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 04:27 pm  awww you are sweet Katie...but actually I am on a mission to try to win a t-shirt.....not sure how yet, but you know I always "go girl!" If I ever get one I will mail it back and forth to you and we will share |
Katie | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 04:46 pm  Sounds good to me or maybe we could get Neil to start a contest for the most loyal fan. One of us would be sure to win that one. How about it Neil?? |
Norequerdo | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 04:58 pm  Its all subjective Guru. My view is Luke nd Roger are the most amiable. Does that meant htat the creators of the game will listen to me??? I HOPE SO. I know people are tired of listening to me saying I am new. But I joined this thing about two weeks ago. I made my judgements on Xenia not because I knew her before the game started but because I found her post about the dildo so totally offensive and violent. That is why I voted against her. The implication of that post was horrific and even for me went beyond the bounds. So it has nothing to do with who knew who when. As far as Arreal is concerned I found her to be someone always looking for sympathy. poor litle me. How many times do we have to hear about how she has had to overcome her disabilities. How many times have we heard on posts I am not feeling well, which is followed by all these players posting Arreal, how are you. I hope she is o.k. I am sorry I didn't buy it. Now maybe because I didn't know her before I am harsher, I am seeing it as someone who came in the week the game started. Zeb I didnt like initially but to be honest havent seen him much in the game. Luke, although amiable, hasnt been around much either. Also, I take offense to being compared to Xenia. I would hope that my dialogue, although cutting at times, is not vulgar and does not promote violence. |
Guruchaz | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 05:51 pm  Oh ok...I still don't know what your judgement criteria is, but I agree on somethings you say and disagree on others. Are you even reading their posts? What in the hell is your criteria for judging someone, Nor? |
Norequerdo | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 06:19 pm  Actually I am reading all their posts (believe it or not I have a job too). My judgement on Xenia I clarified above. My judgement on ArReal, I dont want to belabour the point but check the posts particularly the post which said I am not feeling well, she signs off and is not heard from for a while which prompts members to wonder how she is. Luke, I really dont think the guy has been around much. If he wanted to do this competitition he should honor the commitment to play the game. Perhaps I am being simplistic in my judgements, but what have I not been reading that you have??? Enlighten me. |
Digilady | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 06:24 pm  I'm bout as new as you, Nor. I did live feeds only during BB. I literally am clueless as to the HGs, with one exception: May. THAT one I knew from chat. Rest are all ???? to me as well. I've just learned over time to watch snap judgements... they're like turtles. Snap ya in the *ss everytime. |
Norequerdo | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 06:26 pm  hell Digi, I have a tough *ss. I can take it or haven't you figured that out yet? |
Sara | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 09:55 pm  That's because you don't have the sense enough to know when you've been beaten. |
Lafatme | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 10:50 pm  guru, i think you're wrong about pre-concieved opinions. i only "knew" 2 of the BGs before the game started. i had heard the other names but really don't pay much attention to the poster, just the post itself. i was a lurker until tukuul started bashing brit, then i decided to answer each of his posts until he stopped. we finally called a truce. surprisingly, i don't dislike zeb at all and i'm now willing to give tuk a second chance. there's a change of opinion. i "met"kearie 2 days before the game and immediately liked her. no reason, i just do. i believe she's honest and guileless. so i tend to go after the arreal bashers just as i did the brit bashers. sometimes people really are nice and i think brit and kearie are just that. i still can't say who i want to win though, i need to see the rest of the game. i just want to se it played fairly and let the best BG win, that's all. does that sound like my mind is made up? |
Nikkid | Monday, October 16, 2000 - 11:17 pm  Oooh a cool thread! I'm not with the preconcieved voting either. I was afraid I might be, with a few of the players kissing up to the admin before the game. I was pretty angry about it, actually. I found the chatroom with actual people in it two days before the game started. I met dili (who I really liked), Kearie (who I really disliked - but more because of the posting pre-game), and Lance (again a little negative because of the pre-game). Anyhoo... I will most definately admit my choices have changed. There are only two I'm ready to boot - one is gone. My winner (the one who I wanted to take it all) was Mantastic. I adored his posts. Xenia is a favorite, but that is more I sense a kindred spirit (not so much the hate - but the hurt, she seems to have a very hurt soul). I don't expect to see her win. So I guess my dime is on Luke. While some of you say he is amiable, I really like his personality. He sparkles. |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 06:54 am  Add my dime to the pot for Luke. And not because he's amiable (what a pasty, bland desciption). He is open, honest, shows feelings and although some say he likes to avoid confrontation, he's not afraid to stand up and say the bickering and fighting is making him nuts. Above all, when he really has something to say, he's interesting. He's not one demensional. Oh and Nik, I liked Mantastic too in the beginning. |
Bearcatuc | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 07:44 am  I am also new to the boards. I only got on this website to read the live feeds during BB, so I have no pregame opinions about any of the BG's. After reading last night's (and early morning) chat, I find myself being drawn to Roger and Luke. I love the contributions they have both made to the game. |
Digilady | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 10:02 am  Me too for likeable, outgoing, sensitive Luke. He gives a lot of himself to the Game. |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 10:08 am  And as for sharing personal information none can beat Luke. Did anybody else visit the web page he put in his application? There is a photo gallery which shows just how important home, friends and religion is to him. |
Guruchaz | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 11:50 am  Well, if creating a webpage was a requirement for the game, I'm sure they all would have. It's nice that Luke is knowledgable in HTML to create webpages, but that shouldn't have anything to do with what's going on IN The Game. That's just outside fluff. |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 11:57 am  I didn't say it was a requirement,nor was it a requirement for him to share anything personal on his application. My point, and yes I did have one, is that the Luke being shown to us in "The Game" is the "Real Luke," i.e. openness, honesty and unafraid to share his life. If you try debating this then you are just looking for something to disagree with because you are bored. |
Norwican | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 12:13 pm  I'm Lykin Vykin |
Ocean_Islands | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 12:35 pm  This is no place for obscenity, Norwican. |
Guruchaz | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 12:45 pm  Sure it is. You're here. |
Norwican | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 01:13 pm  LOL Ocean, There is a big difference between Lykin (likin') and lickin' |
Nikkid | Tuesday, October 17, 2000 - 02:32 pm  I think it was the Vykin that was offensive... <smirk!> |
