After being in the game as long as we have (lord knows, it feels like forever :) ) I was wondering...

Is there anything you regret after being in here? (i.e. not having a strategy, playing at all, etc.)

If you could change anything, what would it be?

I don't think I have any regrets yet. If there are any regrets it is that I am spending way too much time playing the game than doing other things I should be doing. Besides, you know I am here for the experience, and don't have a strategy.

One thing I don't like that I would change is that there is no private place BGs can talk with each other without other BGs listening. In BB, there were always rooms you could sneak off to, knowing the others couldn't hear you, but also knowing the cameras were still on.

I would love to have about 15 minutes alone with one other BG just to talk about what is happening without the others knowing, even though the outsiders would see it and probably judge it harshly.

And I bet Juju and Merlin would really like to have a REAL secret room.

i'd like that too... 'cuz sometimes I get mad about something and I have NO ONE to talk to about it... I guess you could go into chat, but it wouldn't be logged

And going into chat without being logged would be cheating!

Also, in general, I am dying to talk and discuss issues and personal stuff in here, but it doesn't seem to be happening. Hell, I am ready to be an open book, but somebody has to read me.

I am getting so bored that I have started going back to the Game I archives and trying to figure out what made them so exciting. And so far I have found those guys were really messed up. Either they never should have been locked up together, or we are an unusually stable bunch of people.

Guru said something interesting in chat last night during the big fight. He accused New of never asking anything about him to get to know him better. I think a lot of us (except MissLibra maybe considering her hot tub talk last night) want to talk about ourselves and learn about the others, but we are too scared to start, and too scared what the consequences on the outside will be.

But if we don't, it will just get more boring in here.

well, yeah... it's only cheating if you talk about the game, and that's what you'd be doing :)

ROFL I've been doing the same thing, elit :)

Great question, Spam (as always).

Obviously, the first thing that came to mind was to have not become involved in trying to get everyone together for challenges. Or rather, approaching it differently. I came into the Game because I was interested in the teamwork aspect of it. I still am. And as long as I am here, I will be. I also thought that I wouldn't have shared my prize to avoid the conflict. Upon re-thinking it, I would have done it again. I feel good about it, and that is all that really matters.

So, in a nutshell, I've been pretty happy with the entering the Game and confident in the majority of my decisions.

Elite, I agree with you. It would be great to have had an area for private chats. I can see a few people getting paranoid about that suggestion, but it does help making getting to know each other better when everyone isn't posting around you in the chat room. Good call, Elite.

I have tried starting conversations on the Game and strategy and stuff, but usually hit a brick wall.

I am starting to do all the things that people despised in the players in BB, but I just can't help myself.

Maybe I will get nominated this time and go off on a Jordan or Karen tirade and it will make me fell better.

Well, paranoid shmarinoid - who knows who's cheating in here! A private chat isn't that big a deal... they were going to have one, but it would be too much work... BUT i bet if you emailed dig, told her what you wanted, she'd make groupchat invite-only, log the chat, and allow only you and your invitee's in

EH DIG??
