Tukuul | Saturday, January 13, 2001 - 06:07 pm  I think everyone is starting to arrive now. Being on the outside is going to be a blast. LOL! Also, has anyone noticed that Gu changed his pic? |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 01:47 pm  A couple of observations that may be of interest---or may not. In chat Spam said that she was starting to feel like she's in the house and the rooms. She said that it was an eerie feeling. Does any of the other players from Game I remember that feeling besides me? Merlin and guru and starting to interact in such a way that their appreciation for each other is on the rise. Spam and Merlin are getting some bonding going on. Merlin can slide into the listening/dad mode pretty well...he's had a lot of practice though. Misslibra got into the idea of the Internet Cam quickly, and she even realized it was happening. |
Moondance | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 01:49 pm  Lance ... funny isn't it... I am writing about this in my Memoirs! |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 01:51 pm  It will be interesting to see what other things change by the time a week goes by. IMHO, this game can sure have a big affect on things. |
Gail | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 03:48 pm  i think it is interesting from a past game player's perspective to watch this. the players in game 2 have it a little easier then we did with the "virtual house" already done, chats when they want, access to other parts of the board, etc. lets them start getting to know each other quicker than we did. i will enjoy watching this unfold |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 04:16 pm  Gail, all good points about what was learned from the first game. Hey, it was nice to be a pioneer for the others so it could get a better head start. I think each game will be different from the others (if more are played) |
Mishamisha | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 04:27 pm  I really question Guru's actions lately. One day he's flaming, posting fast furious responses to Spam, and then as soon as they're sequestered he's all nicey-nicey to everyone. It doesn't seem normal for someone to have such violent mood swings. I think only one of those two distinct personalities he has is the real one, and the other one is a front. Now, if I could only figure out which one is which... |
Tukuul | Sunday, January 14, 2001 - 04:41 pm  I remember someone saying the same thing about me. LOL! If you notice, he does bring up situations where people are forced to confront themselves. That's why the arguments are so massive. I also like what he did with Elitist. Elitist told us more about what he does as a career and so forth from the question Gu posed. I don't remember him ever talking about that. I'm sure there's a method behind the madness but I don't think he's evil or anything. He's a catalyst. At least, that's what I see. |
Tukuul | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 08:31 am  Bump Using this would probably clean up the discussion area. |
Hostess1 | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 09:14 am  Red Room is now open! Gator has done his thing. |
Dilligaf | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 09:32 am  Hostess, are you going to enforce the rule about posting a REAL picture of themselves? I noticed most everyone has already, but I'd love to see the REAL Ocean_Islands!! |
Tukuul | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 09:41 am  I don't think Juju can post one because he/she/it is an ex Navy Seal. Oh, I mean ex government spook. I saw that in the posts yesterday. By the way...Tabloid Trash has been updated. LOL! |
Hostess1 | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 10:19 am  Pickle: I think he DID but when their logins were changed for the GAME area, their photos got hosed. He emailed about it, and I told him to post another one. |
Lancecrossfire | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 12:02 pm  Hostess 1 and 2; instead of changing the board so they can't go into the other areas (tis is their request, not ours), just tell them not to go there if they don't want to. I'm not sure why they should ask you to stop them from going to places they say they don't want to go. Seems like they are asking you to take the responsibility out of their hands, and at some level of effort in changing board parameters. |
Gail | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 12:26 pm  Just tell them to take areas they dont want to read out of favorites in profile so they dont show up. Simple enough. |
Digilady | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 12:32 pm  They already did that! LOL |
Tukuul | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 04:18 pm  Ok...I was reading some of the posts and I have an observation about Spamgirl. She says she runs companies from her home (whatever that entails). She also takes pride in telling people what to do. I seriously think she has an issue where she feels like she needs to take over every thing that happens in the game (challenges, discussions, etc). I think they have established that Elitist should post the final answer to the puzzle and I know Spamgirl is just itching to post it. She definitely has some powerplay issues and feels like she has something to prove to everyone. She's very touchy and boisterous when it comes to validating her own mental acuity. |
Enbwife | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 04:33 pm  Tukuul - you are right about us saying the same kind of things about you when you were a player in Game I. Everyone thought it was trouble having you as a player, then we all got to know you differently. That was cool! I think the same will happen with Guru... surprise, surprise Should be interesting. |
Moondance | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 04:38 pm  Tuk...She is young ... she is really going to hate to read this! But I really think all of that levels out when one gets more comfortable in their own skin... BTW I have been on the receiving end of one of her tirades but know that she has a good heart and means well it's that other stuff that gets in the way. It also sounds as if she has gone through a lot of pain with her family ... acceptance and validation. When this is lacking it leaves the spirit to have to prove more to others and leaves a feeling that she is not enough when in essence she really is. |
Lancecrossfire | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 04:40 pm  I notice Ocean wants to be able to see the other threads. Will he still be allowed to do so? btw, interesting that he seems to be the only one...I would have thought at least one or two more would have wanted to see the threads--just thinking of how different they all are. valid point about it being distracting, and valid point about wanting to still see things. Just depends on personal likes. |
Enbwife | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 04:52 pm  I love the Red Room submissions! Gator always does such a great job on those, and it really gives you some insight into who these players are. |
Gail | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 05:08 pm  lance, i think guru wants to see the mole and temptation island posts too. i will reserve commenting on guru for now. it is still too early to comment on any of them. takes a while to "settle" in to game playing mode. |
Tukuul | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 05:20 pm  I see what you're saying Moon. I haven't really talked to her enough to know about her personal life and family. It's just obvious that she feels some sort of need to always be in control and try to outdo others when she should be trying to outdo herself. |
Tukuul | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 05:22 pm  I just noticed that Gu painted OI in a corner with a post. That should be interesting. It's in the Astrology thread. |
Gail | Monday, January 15, 2001 - 05:31 pm  i agree zeb - should be very interesting. let the games begin! |
