Ok, everyone, this is going to build off an idea that Merlin started in the Members area in November of 2000.

This is your chance to post your "outside looking in" assessments of the Game II participants. Don't be shy and please be honest. This should contain assessments based on everything you've observed from us. You should know most of us fairly well by now.

If you make a comment about a specific person, please type their name with a colon like this so everyone can be seperated:

GuruChaz: blah blah blah...

This should contain the positives and the negatives that you feel we should work on or that you feel are lacking in some way.

For those in the game that don't care about being assessed from an outside view, you may not want to follow this thread.

Lurkers are most welcome to chime in, as well.

Have at it folks!

Azriel
Seemed very cautious going in. As Game progressed, she loosened up. Then came the great Misunderstanding, and she laid herself bare. I personally don't think Azzie was "playing" after that first short while.

Merlin Who knows the mind of a Magician? He stayed true to form all through the Game. He's a listener, an analyst. Did we ever get to really know the man behind the wand?

GuruChaz WOW. What can I say. He started out agressive, true to form himself. His bouts with Spam were a sight to behold. Slowly a change took place. He began to relate more to the others, and so help me, I think he forgot there was a Game being played.

Elitist Mr. Ego himself! I don't think he expected what that Game brought him, at all. He intended to play to win, this one. And he came very close to being in the Top 3. I'm still not sure what happened, but something unsettled him. He too quit actively "playing": in fact, he showed us a side of himself that I, personally, could not believe he would divulge.

Juju2Bigdog A Player, this one! Always the humor, and gorgeous stories. We never truly saw the nature of the beast, though. (Which could well have to do with the nature of the beast's work!)

MissLibra ML was, IMHO, ML. From beginning to end. Perhaps I wasn't paying attention (duuh! had a few other things to do) but again, I didn't see a whole lot of who she really is. Could just be that I missed a whole LOT of stuff there! When banished, she showed a calm graciousness that was a delight and made me wish I'd seen more of her in the Game.

Ocean_Islands What can I say? He sure surprised me. He seemed like Mr. Calm before the Game, Mr. Humor himself. I'm thinking he too ran into a situation that surprised him, and he reacted strongly. There was sure never a dull moment with him in the house.

Spamgirl Spam is Spam, inside Game or out. She might have gone into it thinking she was going to "Play", but again, I think she became SpamGirl. And that's what we wanted to see. (I did, anyway: I wanted to see who they really are, and not who they wanted us think they were.) Spam is nothing if not real.

Newamush A mystery. Where did he come from? Aside from the gay discussions, who was he, really? We didn't have enough time to find out.

Joni Again, Mystery Fun girl. Had she been there from the beginning, I feel we would have seen a lot more of who she really is. As it was, she was hilarious and brought quite a spark.

Next?
