It is ok to have opinions..but this thread was about tough nominations and not about someone in particular. So when Something said that about Moon , it caused trouble.
If that was his purpose, I don't know.
Lucky, you have valid points, too.
Something, back up what you say with facts or at least an opinion. You seem to have "witty" remarks, so let's hear what's behind them.. It just seems like an attack otherwise.

Tukuul, you roh! (So does your twin)
Oh and we have our own opinions and are not Moonies..lol

If you have nothing good to say, don't say anything... right? So when a thread has something positive in it, what use is there in bringing negativity to it? As someone was mentioning toxicity, bringing such toxicity (such as a negative post) to a thread which is healthy otherwise is pretty mean.

Don't just dish advice, take it.

And besides, aren't we all free to state our opinion here? Whether or not someone else likes it, it's our truth, and as long as we present it as such (and not as fact or quotes) AND IN THE APPROPRIATE FORUM AND AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME, there is no harm done. If we add it to a forum for no better reason than to hear ourselves post, or to make a conversation revolve around ourselves (gee, I don't even have to be here for that), or to make a conversation which is positive turn negative because of our own biases, then that is in appropriate.

The point here is - don't tell people not to be negative by using negativity. It's pretty redundant.

I have not really been able to get a good idea about who each of the "BG's" are. Part of it is because all these new reality shows are premiering at the same timeand i've been preoccupied with that. I vow to spend the weekend catching up on their posts so I may have something intelligent to share with the board. From what I HAVE seen they are all cool people that I would like to get to know better once they are on the outside.

I don't get your post Spam, but welcome back anyways. What my post meant was to back up statements (negative or positive). Otherwise, it looks like a slam or flame.
As you can see, I was explaining to Something why we posted back.

BTW Twig, be sure whoever you referenced in "Something, you twist words like someone else who is no longer posting here" took offense to it.

But I agree, your last post is not what I was referring to.

Spam, what made you think I was referring to you?

Go start a thread on your take on the remaining players. You would have a different take on it, sort of give us some inside information.

I didn't say that, twig. I said whoever it was took it offensively... none of us will ever know who you really meant, of course.

I know I don't twist words, it's just the minds that read them are twisted.

"The point here is - don't tell people not to be negative by using negativity. It's pretty redundant."


Does this also apply to you, Spam? I'm not trying to be nasty but why should everyone all of a sudden come to smooch your butt and make up for the things you've said? Just curious.

Did I ask anyone to smooch my butt?

Really?

Anywhere?

Nope, don't think I did.

(Besides, my post was positive... not negative)

Getting back to the topic, I agree that nominations are tough. Well, before I go any further, I better find out what the creator of the thread had in mind. Twiggyish, do you mean nominations as in what the gamers provide, or do you mean our vote to banish someone??

I understand the term to be what the gamers provide, although want to make sure before I give my opinion. (by the way, asking to make sure is my own choice, and not intended to be the approach of anyone else, or saying what anyone else is saying)

On this thread I meant our having to choose. It was for us outsiders.

I think it's pretty easy to choose at this point... with 4 up, it isn't too hard...

Now, next time it's going to be tough!

Twiggyish, thanks for clarifying.

Yes, it is getting tough---at least for me. (that's all I can speak to as far as fact) It may well be getting tough for others, and maybe others have their favorite picked already.

I don't have mine picked yet. IMHO, everyone in there has added to the game in positive ways. Everyone in there has also had some areas for improvement. All the folks left are established posters, at least established in recent history by number of posts or type of posts. Some funny, some insightful, some supportive, some antagonistic. At least for me, when I see these 6 names, I don't think to myself, "who is that again??"

In my opinion, as the number decreases, we have left the folks we think are playing the game the best---whatever that might mean to us. So by nature, it seems to follow (just my opinion, not speaking for anyone else) that we can relate to all of them in some fashion.

The watchers are part of the game, and yes, the game seems to be getting tougher for us--well, at least for me.

Getting tough is an understatement! The only round that was easy for me was the first one.

It's been hard for me all along just to vote. I'm a pushover, must be.

But now I feel I know these people even more. Can hardly stand to see anyone go. I'm afraid I'm going to cry this time.

I cant even think about being in there and having to nominate two people now!!!

I'm just trying to figure out what is being accomplished here. It doesn't look much like redemption which is what Spam should concentrate on.

So, is Spam the only one here that can evaluate people? I find that hard to believe.


Anyway...

Tuk, I love your evaluations - don't ever stop. In fact, the longer your posts, the better.

Ah Tuk, why don't you give up already?

If I felt I needed to be redeemed, I'd work on it...

Just a thought... I believe no one WANTS to be nominated or voted off, but do you think that maybe once they are back out here that they are relieved? And then they can join in the fun of analyzing, complaining, B#tching, about everything going on in there...I think both places have there pluses and minuses...
