Mugu for muyoh! He roh!

Elitist you're getting just about vague enough to start reminding me of some horoscopes! Next thing you know you'll be telling our fortunes!

Hmmm Ocean - that might be more profitable now that you mention it.

Look for your horoscopes here soon.

As promised here are the scientifically derived horoscopes for you guys:

Spam - Saturn is at equinox. Your future and past begin to meld into one. A friend shows another side that you were not aware of. Pleasant things come to you when you release negative energy. A playmate remembers you fondly.

Guru - Uranus is showing. Your true self knows no bounds. Trust those that you have not trusted before - in the next week they will suprise you. Practice self-control - remember to inhale then exhale at all times.

Juju - Pluto is missing. A favorite pet will do something that amuses you - realize its significance. Those around you notice that you are becoming less hirsute. Your energy will destroy you if not released.

Merlin - Mars in conflict with Venus. A past lover and many new lovers soon make their feelings known. A secret is out and may cause you much pain. Rely on your wisdom, but remember even the wise have to defecate.

Joni - Mercury is declining. A recent trip has exhilerated you to new heights. Focus and conserve your momentum for the coming week for it will be a challenging one. Another trip is on the horizon but is likely to be postponed.

Ocean - Neptune rising. Be alert for the signs of friendship - those that you think oppose you are actually your friends. Grab for the golden ring, for though it eludes others it is within your grasp.

MissL - Venus in retrograde. A burst of creativity stimulates your sexual life - try being even more creative for even more fun. A rival in love may not be a rival, only jealous.

Newa - Jupiter rising. Good things come to you if you strive hard enough. An acquaintance you thought would mock your actions becomes intensely interested to the point of obsession. Do not be afraid - all will work out well in the end.

Azriel - Gaiea influences all. Your maternal instincts will be stretched in the coming days. Remember that you love all your children equally. Do not do any wash this week - leave it and be suprised at what happens.

Elitist - Luna is full. Keep cryptic writings to a minimum - at this time they may sound crazy. Apologize profusely at all times - you never know who you may have offended. Both friend and foe are out to get you so realize you aren't really paranoid. And don't forget to smile.

(Note: Sorry Gu, but I couldn't resist the Uranus joke and it would have seemed trite if I gave it to New)

Elite, I like your ramblings less and less, I've gone from a to doing the laundry. Hmmmph!

Moon, can we arrest Elite for practicing astrology without a clue?

LOL Az - what is the punishment for practicing astrology without a clue? Do they lock you in a cell and make you listen to Yani 24 hours a day? Or make you go on a Ramtha seminar for the weekend?

Naw I guess not - astrology is a lot older than New Age - probably something like simple chains, hot pokers, and the rack. Which reminds me of one time at band camp...

Another winner, elitist, and this one finally makes sense. Keep your day job, but keep honing those creative instincts.

Alliances. Even if the banner is not true, it is pretty clear that the nomination voting went pretty much down party lines, the parties being grassyknoll and tidalwaves.

But apparently someone jumped ship, cause MissL and Spam both got 4 votes and/or there are two votes unaccounted for. So who didn't get their memo?

Elitist, I used to think you were crazy. Now, I think you are merely daffy You might be onto something with those missing votes, but then, you know Hostess just slaps them into the Excel spreadsheet wherever they look pretty anyway.

OR, Hostess only announces the top four, so perhaps Ocean and Merlin each got one of the missing votes, or Guru got two. They still would not make the top four. <Juju2bigdog takes pencil in hand and start ciphering cube roots in excess of 125>

Any more brilliant theories being offered?

Leadon, oh kinky turtle.

Roar on, Ocean, roar.

(first line is a Sunday school hymn)



Um, Elite, can you work up some theories? Juju at the liberry right now.

Actually I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to Ocean. It is something I should have done a long time ago, but I had wanted to do it in one-on-one rather than here.

At the first of the game I proposed and espoused a theory that was in malicious fun, however was taken too far, and I believe hurt both you, Ocean, and Moon. I did not realize the consequences of my actions - meaning that I may have caused hurt to you and Moon, and when I did I did not do anything to alleviate those consequences.

This has caused friction between us that may not have been there if not for my actions. I apologize for that and any other words or actions that I have said or done that might have been construed to result from this.

Could you please elaborate on how it is that you know you have hurt Moondance with your comments?

Your comments and theories did not hurt my feelings.

Your recent nomination of me again makes your apology a bit hollow, I'm afraid.

Elitist

I did not say that I knew that I hurt Moondance - I said that I believed I did.

If my comments and theories did not hurt your feelings, then that is my mistake.

As to your nomination, I had my reasons this time, as I did the first - though they may have been different reasons. Just as you have had reasons for nominating those you have nominated.

I believe there is a better breakdown for all of this (if there truly is one):

You have the Intellectuals, the Creatives, the Socials, the Baiters, the Funners, the Posers, the Realists, the No Nonsensers, and the Lurkers.

Everyone here is comprised of two or more of the above characteristics. Now, the greatest experiment would be to evaluate each person on these characteristics as you see how they come across in their posts and in chat. Then, see exactly who they group with and compare the personalities to see if there is some common bond in a particular characteristic or multiple characteristics.

I don't know who would want to turn this board into an experiment, but there's one laid out for someone to jump on. Have at it!

Well tonight is the night for our final nominations.

Since we have to nominate two people, we all will most certainly have to nominate someone we would rather not.

So the best of luck to you three, I hope at least one of you will be exempt from banishment. Please don't take this nomination personally, because this one is the toughest of all. I know I won't.

You can say that again. This nomination round sucks so you three please don't take it personally. I like each and every one of you.

This is so hard. People just don't understand me at all. I am at such an intellectual level, most people just can't reach it, and it is so lonely up here.

And now all but one of the females are gone, and I have this case of condoms and haven't used one of them.

So I am going to go shave my chest and lift some weights.

Well I was trying to find a song to parody today, and I guess the banner was right - Big Funk.

Everything I thought of was so melancholy that I would start to write and just realized how horribly down it sounded, so I would try to find something else. No luck - seemed to just get worse.

So I am just going to hang around and think about what I will do if I am banished, and what I will do if I am not. Sounds like fun. Wish somebody else were here to join in the revelry.

E, don't cave in on us man! I truly thought you, M and AZ would be the last three here. No matter what happens, I'm very thankful to have had the extra time in here to get to know you a little more. It probably would have taken forever or maybe never happened on the outside. I overlooked a lot of important characteristics of many people before coming in here. I certainly won't forget the last month in here.

I am not caving - just expressing Middle-Aged White Man's Angst. :)

It has just been a downer day, thinking that I might be gone (again) and trying to come up with something that would lighten the mood in here.

So far it has been a complete failure :)

This thread has served its purpose.

It is funny that of the final three they represent the three alliances I first proposed:

Az - Mystics
Gu - Funners
Merlin - Technics

Though you may not agree, that is how I saw it.

The final votes will now be cast - I wish you all luck.
