Are we seeing the true personalities of any of the BGs? Are we really getting to know these people or do they have "game" personalities? Some of the personalities have changed so much that I can't decide which is which.

That is a good question. To some extent, I do agree about "game" personalities. Then again, it appears some of them are opening up and I think they are being real. For example, Guru is showing a more human and more mature side to his personality.

I agree, Guru has proven that he is human!

But a few players still seem one dimentional to me. For example, I don't feel I know any more about Miss Libra than when we started. When Spammie tells people off is she "game" Spammie or "real" Spammie?

The world may never know!

Cammie beat me to it--glad someone wanted to discuss this besides me.

I was the first one to say that I wanted Guru in the game, if there was going to be one (and I still said it after it was decided to have Game II). I actually challenged him in a thread to participate in it--since he had so much to say about the first one. (and for al the other things I've seen him say up to now).

When he gets out, I hope that he reads this post. I didn't want him to go in so that I could rant about him and say how bad he is. If I wanted to do that, I'd have started from day 1, and not stopped till he was out of the house. Sure, I've so far said some tings I thought were wrong, although I also think I've said something about the good things. I haven't decided what he's really like--I have stated that I don't think you can become a new person in 1 week (it's been two now).

The reason I challenged him to "put up or shut up" about playing was because I had one of those intuitions. (I know--shock, I have feelings) I thought that if he went in the game, I figured he would experience those very things he wrote about. He mentions it's never happened before on his computer...and I think that is what us from Game I walked away with as well--it was something that was really intense, very emotional, very deep if you let go, and filled with lots of different feelings (and damn addictive). I was hoping he would get to experience it is he could understand and know what we went through, especially being someone that had so many judgements of others about something he hadn't felt.

It wasn't just Guru--I really believed that anyone who played would most likely go trough those things--I have always said openly that it was the most wonderful experience I've ever had playing a game.

In reading his post, I still hold I don't know what kind of a person he really is, however IMHO, I believe he is really experiencing what he says is happening. I don't believe you can describe it all, in the way he did, without experiencing it. Yes, just MHO, not trying to state it as fact, or for anyone else but myself.

I hope everyone gets that from it. The game takes time and energy....and if you are going to put it into the game, I hope that person gets those things out of it.

Well said, Lance!

We are really learning about Guru. He's had to put his money where his mouth is and we will all benefit from THAT!

Lance, you described the experience very accurately and poignantly. You are so right.

And this whole Game experience really does stay with you even after it's long over, doesn't it?

Wendy!! Will you be staying with us a spell?

So, it stayed with you for awhile?? After stepping away and now being back, did your perspective of the game change over time?

Wendy......OMG!!! I was just asking about you last week. I wanted you to be the Gator in this game since Flint was not interested in the beginning. Wish you'd been around when we were making that decision. How the hell have you been? Have you been lurking all this time? I'd love to hear your impressions of this game. LMAO!! Glad you're back.....don't be such a stranger.
