Bamagirl | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 08:03 pm  Yes he left fast..maybe he will come over and join the watchers. |
Nancy091158 | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 08:04 pm  let's hope so ;-) |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 08:06 pm  I bet he could give us some great insight. |
Nancy091158 | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 08:10 pm  i would love to hear what he has to say...being he was so new to the boards..and in the game t'would be interesting to get his prospective...He was brave to even apply and while he wasnt doing a lot of revealing he seemed to enjoy his stay for the most part... ;-) |
Lancecrossfire | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 09:57 pm  Nancy, you make a good point about him applying to begin with...same for Joni. (and all the others that applied) People talk about losing and losers in less than a positive way sometimes. Yes, most all of us like to win..although a person can neither win or lose if they don't play to begin with!! |
Joni | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 10:03 pm  There has been alot of talk that I was a newbie here at the site.. Some of you might remember me posting back on the BB site.. I was a lurker after the game ended posting here and there when something caught my eye.. I even tried out for the first game |
Lancecrossfire | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 10:09 pm  Joni, sorry for not remembering your posts. I have a feeling there are quite a few I wouldn't remember. Old age and one heck of a lot of people! If you could play again the next game, would you? |
Joni | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 10:39 pm  I would definatly do it again in a heartbeat. I know that I have made atleast one friend out of this and that makes it worth it. The few days that I was in there were so fun. I know I wasn't able to post as much as I wanted to but I always looked forward to seeing what was new. I was just learning. There were alot of things that I didn't know and I think that hurt me a little. I thought that the only redrooms that we did were the ones that were sent to us. I didn't know that I was suppose to send them in every day. I completely missed the puzzles and official topics and I think that hurt me too. I started to open up alot in the personal thread. I think that if I had more time in there I would have made more of an impact.. |
Lancecrossfire | Tuesday, January 23, 2001 - 11:02 pm  Joni, keep your head up! There can't be any tougher way to play the game than being an alternate. You are the first to try it. Look at it this way--you got to experience something that one 20 others in the life of this board have been a part of. And in doing so, you will have an understanding of things than the others who haven't played won't be able to feel. Not bad for them, for whatever reasons they didn't want to play, or weren't chosen for those that tried out. You can provide us a perspective that hasn't existed before (alternate). |
