Hostess1 | Thursday, February 01, 2001 - 12:19 pm  ~~ Elit's PRIZE ~~
" Mass Debaters Invade 'Our Town' " Last night, what was to be one of the prime events of Game II and one of our biggest coverages of the year instead turned into an online version of a classic play. It started out with contestants being divided up into two teams: the Tidal Waves (appropriately named, it seems, after a member prayed to the porcelain gods) and the Grassy Gnoll (which we all know is a smaller version of a Lawn Troll --- well, close enough). The original object of the game was to insult as many people as possible and cause a total text riot by provoking members of the opposite team until they slowly left in disgust. Those who remained would be the champions. Unofficially hailed as "The TVCH Smackdown", the event took an unexpected turn. Specatators were enraged by the placidity of the contestants. Instead of pummeling each other with verbal acumen, they served each other tea and cake and talked about their families (mainly their mothers). Some players even held short "personal growth seminars" on Anger Management, Teamwork, and Effective Communication. As the stadium quickly emptied of disgusted viewers, the contestants ended the evening by snugly tucking each other into their beds and expressing their love for one another. What I would like to know is what would Thornton Wilder say about all this? I'm sure he'd be pleased. |

Juju2bigdog | Thursday, February 01, 2001 - 01:56 pm  <Juju2bigdog leaps into air with wild ecstasy, landing askance on ponderous tail, wobbles to feet and comes up applauding and whistling> Love your prizes, Elite. That might have been even better than a big bowl of Alpo. More puzzles for Elite!!!! (Thanks, tukuul, you seem to have a way of putting it into persepctive, warped perspective, that is)
