Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 06:57 pm  Thanks--see everyone in a little while. |
Arreal | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:01 pm  Hey Moon beam, how you doing today? (((Moon))) |
Arreal | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:14 pm  I like taking pictures also...got my Rebel and I went out and bought a nifty zoom lens for it. The zoom lens comes in handy. It is definitly needed for taking fast action shot of things far away. I often take pictures of my daughter ArReal in her gymnastics meets. 1000 speed film and a zoom. I got a beautiful black and white of her doing a full split leap on the balance beam. Timed it perfectly. She was about 3 feet off the beam and in full split. She also landed the leap perfectly. It was great how the picture captured something so fast and amazing...something the human eye couldn't even fully appreciate. |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:15 pm  Hold on while I start my computer up--I'm on someone else's--mine locked up while in there, and I had this one ready as a backup |
Moondance | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:19 pm  Arreal... I love B&W ... sounds like you have a great camera! Oh Roger is back........ That was FAST! |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:28 pm  Well, 10 minutes went so fast!! Of course my computer locked up (it was acting funny) so I had another ready. Well, it is interesting over there. A number of folks want the challenges to move faster...not give us as long to pick people for rewards etc. They came up with an idea to vote someone into the house....some for, some against. A lot of discussion on that one I couldn't look at. Some folks thought the game wa way worse than BB...some like it really well. All over the borad on that one!! There were comments on how slow it can be, on how people that use (((hugs))) are..well...lame, so to speak. I didn't go into any thread about a specific person with only 10 minutes. There was number of issues with making it better next time---so at leats people are looking at it and thinking in a constructive way. Many thought there were too many posts by us to follow when they are looking only once in awhile (I'd agree!) cont... |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:47 pm  F*uck Nuts!! I had a big ass post about the rest, and my machine locked up as I hit the button to post. Ill go in smaller chuncks--my maching is being weird tonight. here we go again |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:51 pm  Ok, the folks liked the RR posts--or so it would seem. They wanted them posted faster so they were available to look at. I didn't go into anyone's RR posts--I promise! Ther was discussion on the people they thought if voted out would ruin the game--this is because of traits. Soome wanted the high energy folks in, others thought they were a distraction. Lots of posts about sugestions for challenges, so it would seem they follow those along pretty well--although didn't read enough posts to know for sure--just lots of ideas. I think those are usually born out of interest in that portoin of the game. cont.. |

Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 07:59 pm  Ok, this is working better... They root for their favorites like in BB...syaing what they like about one person, waht they don't like about another...they get on each other about the opinions..or at leats it seemed that way as I skimmed quickly. Want to see more or less of---that is all over from one extreme to the other, just as waht is best and worst over all. Mushy posts are hated by some, loved by others. Nice people are seen as anywhere from boring to great. I saw a number of comments about no moderators in future games...I couldn't work through the treads to see how much others wanted to have that.. Think of how we all posted about BB..the likes the dislikes...that's pretty much how it is with us..and they jump on each other just like everyone did with BB...LOL Wec all have fans and we all have folks who would rarther not see our posts..again just like BB There were comments about rooters that I noticed in passing...just like we picked at each other for thinking someone was great or someone was bad--it seems similar there too. Breath Roger... |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:05 pm  I get the feeling of a lot of energy from some of the folks...using caps as I skimmed, using the clipart...that is only an opinion, as I could really tell from specific words..take that with a grain of salt. I saw some frustration with Host/Admin, although some were quick to the defense, as it is something new with bugs to work out!! With the sheer number of posts and the number of topics, it seems claer there are some that have worked through all the aspects of the game and us pretty damn well!! I think it helps that they know us, at least to some degree---there were afew topics about who we were, and I didn't go int those..figured by now they know, so whatever discussion they had was of less value for me to look at than other things--just to let you know it was a point for them to go over though!! Are we liked?? Yes and no--as all the other HGs in BB. Just as I would have figured--no one can be loved by all! LOL! Questions?? |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:06 pm  I'm back--need to hear what you have to say to see if my brain is jogged for anyhing else. |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:11 pm  Oh, one I saw that most of the posts I skimmed was the idea of having a part of the house where 2 people could talk, and no one else was supposed to be able to hear...Arreal--wasn't that your first "we need a..."?? Too many posts to tel if there were folks that didn't like it. AQlso, many seemed to think the house had too many rooms!!! Too many places for them to go trapcing through!! LOL--we had the same thing to say!!! That was great! I just couldn't tell you if we thought of it first or they did (I didn't look at dates) |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:14 pm  Some liked the discussions we came up with--some liked some of them---didn't see anyone say they didn't like any of them, although again, didn't have the time to look at all posts on the threads about that. Oh, for reference time wise, I looked mostly at waht was more current--didn't go back a lot into archives because of time contraints. So, if there was some major thing at the beginning of any topic, I missed it folks. |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:15 pm  Any one here??? |
Moondance | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:34 pm  you did a great job Roger! sounds like a rush... over all what do you think they want the most from us ... the least? |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:41 pm  That one was really hard to tell specifically. So many different views----I think to be entertained...although it is hard for us to do without putting on a show??? The least was even harder to tell---there were lots of differrent things they didn't like....yet fr everthing not liked, there were fols who liked what they didn't. Does that make sense?? |
Xenia | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 08:55 pm  Who had the most fan mail??? Just kidding. Roger it's like you have a photogenic mind. I knew you'd succeed at this. You absorbed a ton of info and reported it objectively. Thank you for putting so much passion into it. |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:02 pm  Xenia, thanks for your comments--having so little time to read so much makes it hard to get specific, although forces one to just go for the "flavor" of things..may we are better off for just knowing that! lol It would appear that I posted to close to an empty house?? I picked a bad time??? Maybe there wasn't that much interest in what is on the outside?? That could be!! |
Zebulon | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:10 pm  That's photographic mind, moron...unless you take pictures of people's heads, Xenia. WTG Roger! Anything specific about me? |
Moondance | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:11 pm  Roger... made sense what you were saying to my question ... over all could you tell if we should be doing anything different to make the game better? Or are we on the right track? |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:13 pm  Not that many will hear it--I just wanted to say that I don't know what Host did as far as hiding how voting is going or if she didn'y hide it at all. I intentionally did not go into the threads called voting polls and voting ???? (the ? means I don't remember what the word(s) was. I didn't want to take a chance on seeing that information. |
Zebulon | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:14 pm  I apologize all for my attitude and I know it's hostile towards Xenia, but I DO NOT abuse women like she suggests. That's the exact thing that is pissing me off. |
Zebulon | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:17 pm  That and her lies about the song not being up for discussion and me taking it over and blah blah blah. |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 19, 2000 - 09:19 pm  Boy, that is a judgement call....depends on how you or any of them defines "better". I get the impression that however we change it, we'd have those that liked the changes and those that wouldn't. Like the mole issue--some hated it, some the opposite. I believe over all they feel we are playing ok. It's hard to play any "better" if you are trying to be true to your charcter/self. One factor is that there is no visual, no sound, or no movement. It's all written, so few senses get used by those watching. I didn't see a post that put in terms like that...don't know if there was one or wasn't--just something I thought of in terms of what people like to "see" (experience) Where is everyone, Moon?? |
