Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 02:38 am  I don't know. Optics is totally new too. Never appeared before the game! Is he another host? Maybe Neil as Kearie seems to suggest? |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 02:42 am  The question is, weren't we told that moderators couldn't play this time? |
Misslibra | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 03:21 am  I don't know Katie about the moderators not being part of the game. But I have a strange feeling that some people who weren't picked to play the game, might have something to say about it ... if it's true. |
Ocean_Islands | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 04:23 am  I thought it was very suspect that some people wanted to banish Vykin when nobody knew who he was, and it turns out it wasn't Tukuul, who everyone wanted to banish at the beginning. |
Lafatme | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 05:15 am  gail posted out here on 10/8 so if she is actually talisker, she broke the rules and came here as gail. in her post she also said she'd been out of town for a few days. hmmm. this mystery has really got me hooked. i did some research on posters and subjects etc. i think optics/vykin is flint. has anyone seen flint since the game began? he's super canadian. he started the thread about the prime minister dying (trudeau) which ties to his political interest. any other ideas? |
Ocean_Islands | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 06:52 am  I don't think it's Flint. Here's what he said after he was not selected for the game: "Even though the Flintman was not selected to plat the game, he would like to offer his condolences, err he means congratulations to those who he will torment, err he means watch play. "I am sure it was a hard decision to pick just 10 out of all the applications. The Flintman will still be around for the second round or any other. " Also, Oct 11: "Some of us are still around, just lurking. Or in my case, due to injury and time constraints not posting as much as we used to. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with not being selected. "For my part, it is actually a good thing that I wasn't selected. My arm is still injured, and I recently decided a pinched nerve in my neck would go along well with a crushed nerve in my arm. So I would be spending even less time online. At least less time typing. Add to that an uncle visiting, and an upcoming trip. So my time online is sort of limited. "If I were in the game I would feel obliged to be more prolific than I have been in regards to posting. Personally speaking, I say that because it doesn't appear that some of those selected feel the same way, if I were in "The Game" I would feel obliged to be there, posting because I would have made that commitment. "Mind you I did get a consolation prize of sorts in the clip art. That is just my attempt at evloking sympathy, err I mean ... My 2 cents." ======= It doesn't sound like the voice of anyone currently on the board. He should have said he was Canadian because that would have helped his app. |
Whit4you | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 06:57 am  Well I don't think Tali is Gail - I don't know if ArReal is even telling the truth. Talisker clearly knew that having a private chat outside of "the game" was against the rules based on her trying to drag Roger into a private chat, he told her then that it was against the rules and refused her repeated attempts to get him to go. So, Tali broke the rules by going private and telling them that she is Gail. Anyone who'd be willing to break the rules - to this extent would also be willing to lie. This to me isn't a little rule - the entire game is based on "no outside contact regarding the game" and she knew that was a rule. I only wish I could change my vote. To late now. But unless she out and out denies it even happened (then it's her word against ArReals) I think she should be replaced by someone who is willing to play BY THE RULES. Whit |
Azriel1104 | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 09:01 am  I read what got posted after I went to bed last night and now I don't feel quite so confused anymore. I confess that last night I did think that Arreal was wigging out. I understand now why Vykin wouldn't back her up. He was wishing she would shut up because he knew they had broken the rules and he didn't want her to say how she knew Tali's secret. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about all of this right now. It all seems weird and I still don't feel that I have the true picture. I'm going to withhold my judgement till I get a more information and hear what Neil has to say about all of it. |
Digilady | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 09:41 am  Let me get this straight. A moderator is in the game, which I think I heard wasn't kosher? In that a game would be set up later for just moderators? An illegal private chat was held, which is definitely against the rules. The players all know this and are upset. They shouldn't have to deal with this, IMHO. So, what's to be done to keep the game fair? Any ideas? |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 10:43 am  Well I don't think Tali is Gail - I don't know if ArReal is even telling the truth. She said it was confirmed by Lisa. Was it in writing? |
Ocean_Islands | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:34 am  This has now appeared in the Game: --------------------------------- The ClubHouse: The Game - Play Room: General Discussions: Topic #5 - What do you think about Talisker? --------------------------------- Players, you have realized that Talisker(Ryder) is actually Gail, a TVClub Moderator. Discuss what you would like to do about it if anything. After you have discussed this issue, a poll will be conducted over the weekend to decide if you would like Talisker booted out of the Game. Majority Rules in this respect. ------------------------------------------- Himay10ns Friday, October 13, 2000 - 10:46 am -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey, new topic.....Hmmmmmm, gonna have to think about this one first! |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:36 am  Looks like an admission to me! |
Lafatme | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:42 am  in the RR, tali said "ijust don't want to be used for someone elses pleasure" that's how i feel folks. everybody IN THE GAME, and OUT HERE should be operating on an equal level. no secret identities. i am who i say i am. i have no second name, i have no secret alliances with anyone, and i want the same from everyone else. admin, please investigate the possibility of "aliases" being used out here. if any are found you should live up to your promise to remove them, or at least alert the rest of us who we're dealing with. thank you. |
Noslonna | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:44 am  LOL. Gee I thought I just started a rumour but truth is stranger than fiction as they say. Katie, Optic was around before the game. He was hilarious and fun then too. I never thought about him being Flint. I agree with Ocean. Optic/Vykin openly discussed going into the game right up to the time it started. |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:48 am  Here is something interesting. The BG asked a question and host gave an answer. Is Talisker actually Gail? Yes, See Discussion topic #5 in Discussions area |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 11:49 am  Check just when Optics started here and how many posts there were. Do a word search and check it out like some of us did last night. |
Noslonna | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 12:05 pm  Katie ya just got to learn to keep secrets. |
Lafatme | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 01:24 pm  nos, optics posted twice-how can he have been funny? also, ya gotta learn to keep secrets? from who? me? is this game visible to all or are some members "keeping secrets" that only a few privledged few can be in on? i am feeling left out. it may be fun to those on the inside, but it's not fun, or fair, to me, or the others who aren't in on the secret. |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 01:28 pm  That is the way I feel too. I feel cheated. Who know what in this and why can't we all know the same things on the same side of the wall. The players should all know the same things and we all should know what they know and what the rest of the watchers know. |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 01:31 pm  Did a word search and Laf is right. Optics only posted twice before the game. |
Noslonna | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 02:11 pm  Katie I was referring to being in chats with Optic and others before The Game started. |
Vasix | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 02:39 pm  omg I didn't realize that you had to be a regular TVCLUBHOUSE poster to join TVCLUBHOUSE. Man, that really tripped me up. See I thought that AFTER you found the site you could start posting. And APPARENTLY to some people the only people allowed to be players are longtime tvclubmembers. What's next? Posting quota? Neil, are there more deserving members of TVClubhouse than others? How many posts do I have to make to be considered not suspicious? That's it disqualify Vykin because he hasn't spent half his natural life listening to Xenia threatening people... |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 03:02 pm  Vykin is more then one person. That to me makes me doubt him. |
Kpritch | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 03:04 pm  Vasix, I agree with you! Because Vykin/Optic's only posted twice while BB was on, he is now suspicious? I didn't read that the "game" was only open to high numbered posters. Where is the logic in that? It's too bad that some posting on this board feel that others that were lurkers do not qualify to be here supporting their game player. If there is another game after this, please specify that we aren't wanted on here in the rules to alleviate our having to defend ourselves. Thank you. fan |
Katie | Friday, October 13, 2000 - 03:11 pm  WHO is VYKIN??? We are told he is more then one person. How can you support someone when you don't even know who they are. That is my issue with him! I did support him until this came out.Also is it fair for more then one person to be playing against one. Vykins as two or more playing against Roger as one for example? |
