Interrogator | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 07:25 am  Do you have a question that you would like to ask the Gamers? Well, you can post them here, and they may be used in either a chat question period, or even in a Red Room discussion. Group questions, something that can be asked of all Gamers, are preferred, but individual ones will be given consideration. As always the questions must follow the rules of the board. Excessive foul language, vengeful and hateful questions will not be considered. |
Twiggyish | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 07:44 am  What question would each one ask of the new president? If each one could speak to famous person, living or dead, who would they choose? If given the choice, what period of history or time period would each choose to live? (They cannot choose the present time) Rosa Parks courageously refused to give up her bus seat to a white man. If given the circumstances, would any of you do something noble, in order to prove a point? |
Wink | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 07:49 am  Nice job Twigg. Any or all of those would also make excellent discussion topics for the BGs . They need to get some discussion going on things other than who is trying to undermine who, here, there and everywhere!! |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 09:08 pm  Why all the comparisons to game I? Why not play your own game the way you'd like it to go based on who you are? |
Maddie | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 10:55 pm  I would like to ask the players who they consider their biggest rivals in the game. I think some of them secretly, or not so secretly, want to know this and want to have it verbalized it so they can implement a strategy. |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 11:35 pm  Maddie, good question. To go along with that, it would be nice to ask them what their strategy is (if they have one) for winning the game. Obviously a RR question. |
Moondance | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 11:45 pm  Good one Maddie & Lance!... ohhh and yes...RedRoom so they will be more open! |
Maddie | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 11:47 pm  Lance, I definitely agree with your question about strategy... it goes hand in hand with the one I raised. Do they have any strategy? Some seem to and others are blowing in the wind. Did they not consider they were entering a game? (with darn good prizes to boot!) or did they just think they were going to fool around and waste our time and theirs? Good question to ask: Do you have a strategy - and if so what is it? :o) |
Tukuul | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 08:05 am  Oh, I think the time is valuable on both sides. It takes a lot more effort in there than out here to keep the flow going. After Game I, I've relaized that they're not gettng paid to be here and shouldn't be expected to work here 8+ hours a day solely for out amusement. I've enjoyed most of what I've read so far. It's just the first week. Be patient.  |
Mishamisha | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 09:31 am  I agree, Tuk, I think they are just still chattering nervously a little, trying to get a feel *cough* of eachother. I expect to see great things in the coming days and weeks! My only criticism of the Hostesses so far is that I think the BGs are getting a little too much outside influence. I was quite surprised that two of their rewards already were being able to get outside info. Honestly, I wish I hadn't been in chat lastnight. I wish someone else could've answered those questions instead of me. Regarding those of us who change our names in chat to flash messages...does anyone else agree that we should try to avoid revealing outside stuff there? I think the less they're thinking about us the more they'll concentrate on eachother. I know, I've been one of the ones who's most guilty of changing names, but I vow to keep it to a minimum now. The last day or two my names have really been changed because of what's going on in the #gamediscuss area, not the actual #groupchat room. |
Mishamisha | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 09:54 am  Oops, apologies to Gator, I didn't mean to get so far off topic. Hey, y'all, Gator needs some ideas. Time to pick the BGs brains (what's left of them anyway). Ask away! |
Tukuul | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 10:04 am  If you were to suffocate one player with a bag until they pass out, who would it be? Would you use paper or plastic? |
Mishamisha | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 10:17 am  Rofl, Tuk, I love it! Gator? Will you use it? Please? |
Maddie | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 10:44 am  Misha, I totally agree with you that the players are getting too much outside information. It seems from reading the chat logs that the name changes account for some of it. :o) |
Soeur | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 11:57 am  Would the players like the viewers to lessen the name changing in chat - what do they think about this? |
Digilady | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:07 pm  I think even the players are seeing the name changes as irritating, at times. Tis hard to have a discussion, with such things happening. NOT posting as Hostess1, for this is just my opinion. I'd sure like to see less of the name-changing, and for that matter, Hostess1 ought to keep HER big mouth shut in there also. Hostess1 will have SUCH a hard time doing that... <snark> |
Moondance | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:23 pm  I swear I cut it down to two... I promise to hold my fingers back! |
Soeur | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:31 pm  Yes. suggest a limit to the #of name changes and also that viewers be sensitive to the ongoing discussion and do not interrupt a thread with the /nick change. When they are just whacking a ball around and are not on any topic it can hardly do any harm (or when they are in a conversational rut)..don't they need to know that we're not cleaning out the garage or at the store?  |
Leap | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:33 pm  It occurred to me that I am using a question book with my Business Ethics students this quarter. I figured I would post some of the interesting ones here and anyone can use them as they wish: Would you vote for a mayoral candidate who was honest, competent, and concurs with your position on most issues if you knew she was also an alcoholic who was sexually promiscuous and three times divorced? If you smoked pot as a teenager and now were filling out an employment questionnaire asking whether you had ever used drugs, how would you respond? You must sign an affidavit swearing to the truth of your statements. If you discovered that your closest friend at work had for years forged records and stolen from the company, what would you do? If because of intolerance you were going to miss a wonderful chance at a promotion, might you lie to hide your religious beliefs? If you went to a store and found it was being peacefully picketed by striking employees, would you be more likely to go elsewhere or to shop there anyway? Why? I got lots of these, tell me if you want more. |
Interrogator | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:36 pm  Thanks for the variety of questions, and the discussion. I will definitely be using some of them, actually I already have used one. ;) Leap, feel free to post more. It means I can pick and choose among them. Everyone feel free to post a question, whether it is a group one or one for an individual basis. |
Soeur | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:37 pm  Leap...keep them coming, reading them is food for thought! |
Moondance | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:40 pm  Leap...those are GREAT! Keep going! |
Noslonna | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:48 pm  *Hostess2 says to Hostess1... there is always the "/mode #groupchat -v" command.
 |
Soeur | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:52 pm  ewww...Hostess2...I'm scared to ask...what is "/mode#groupchat-v" and is it something we are going to find out about? |
Leap | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 12:55 pm  WAHHHHH /Nick Leap will never be /Nick Zzzzzzz again |
