Good job Roger. I hope the BigHost doesn't count off for spelling!! :) (just teasin' ya)

How will we know if we got it right or wrong? What do we win if we get it right? How will we be punished if we get it wrong?

Everyone, please check what I posted. The clock on the post shows 11:55, so it was posted on time. I would like to thank everyone who helped with this challenge. I'm not going to say "good luck", because I don't think we got it by luck!

Tali--I left out the part about the cows you included based on 2 things--1) input from the others, and 2) believing it didn't make a difference in the answer being right (if we hadn't included the mine isue I think we would not win), and somehow figuring that extraneous information could/would be used against us.

If it comes out that including that information was needed, I will take responsibility for that, as I made the post. And you can believe 100% that I would feel like shit for it. (just so you all know that I'm willing to take responsibility for my posting action)

Hey Roger, we're all in this together. There will be NO fingerpointing if we get it wrong! But I admire you for being willing to take the blame. What a great sport!

May--I don't look at it as blame. Probably a splitting of hairs by me saying that. It's an attitude I guess I have. I wrote it, and I see it that I made a specific call since we did not have 100% agreement on exact wording. With every action comes what goes with it. I'm that way about everything, at least for myself. just wanted to let you and the others know that I will not "blame" anyone else for what I wrote down, even though it was a group answer. (and in this case, the group should be recognized for taking part in this.

I think we will all experience times when the amount of contribution will vary with each person, depending on the time they have (real life does affect how much we can play) and what we know. I fully expect ther will be challenges where I'll be fluondering.

To be honest, I had one goal concerning this challenge-- For US to WIN!!

Me too! Wooohoooo!! When do you think we will know if we are right or not??

I don't have a clue on that one. I haven't seen any messages from Host indicating when a verdict will be reached. I don't remember anything from the rules that covered it either.

Hey anyone---has you heard anything to indicate when we could expect an answer??

Inquiring minds want to know! LOL

Roger, no problem on the cows . . the only reason I mentioned them was because it meant the area was capable of supporting life.

God damn, the anticipation is killing me.

Tali--thanks. I can get pretty anal about the wording used by Host. We never did ask if the clear area had been sterilized of animal life. That would have been a good question too--like others that were thought of after Host closed questions. LOL

Given long enough (probably the rest of yesterday), we could have asked questions to the point of having only one choice without even having to weigh anything. I'm guessing that is why Host closed us out--we were heading that direction. lol

Xenia, I feel your pain! lol

I too would love to know how we did. I checked out the rules (3rd bullet, first page), states that challenges won't have a time limit. I understand them giving us one for this challenge though.

It sounds like we are all anxious to find out--I like that. it's great to work with people who want to win! After all, isn't that why we are in here to begin with!

Congratulations to us for figuring it out! Oh, yeah, host, thanks for the reward, I think?

Well, it's cool we won the challenge.

The reward sucked though.

Yes, Xenia, I agree! Like to know the name of the guy who did those implants! Ha! Host, how about next time a reward that we can all enjoy? Like maybe Haggis for everyone!

I'll preface this with a proactive potential response--I have no desires to hook up with any of the people in this house, so if you were going to be concerned about any motives for support I give to any BG, don't bother going there. I give out agreements or disagreements based on what I feel (either factual based, ot strictly from HMO).

Agreed the reward was an indication that Moon has a rooting club. Not sure why it sucks to know that. I hope that we all have supporters out there. (You can figure if any one of us doesn't, the outcome will be clear)

Tali--LOL about the haggis--I still liked it.

In looking at the rules, I noticed that challenges aren't usually associated with rewards. Also, it's possible that "rewards" won't always be positive. aFter all, it's the Host who is calling it a reward. It is Host's job to stir the pot. Oh, btw--I'll take my martini shaken, not stirred.

Xenia/Tali--I hope you guys have a fan page as well--you both have great qualities that warrant lots of support!! (in the event you think I'm just BSing you, then you would be wrong)

The Host didn't pick slackers--we all have something going for us, don't you think??

LOL Tali ... wish my breasts were as big as Linda Carters! (my face obviously super imposed)

I am looking forward to seeing everyone elses fan pages!

Thanks Roger for being the team leader!

Xenia--that new banner was rough on you for sharing your opinion. Must have some folks out there who can't handle someone being honest about how they feel??
