Well, this is how I saw things from inside and out.

Elitist is paranoid. He's trying to hide that by being especially cocky at times. He's very shaky, and I think his self esteem is on the line right now.

Factors for being banished: IMMUNITY - not up for banishment BUT... his paranoia, his comments about TVCH, feelings from before the game/bias, his whining about losing puzzles, his overcockyness at times, his rudeness to other players (reminding New that it was his "first win", etc.)

OI is also paranoid, and I think that's why he was a little whiny about immunity. Being nominated by everyone hurt, but not as much as it could have. I think he never felt like he fit in in the house, and that's why he made so many attempts at doing things on his own (his "project", the lab, etc.)

Factors for being banished: Really not a part of the group, not around as much as others, a little whiny about the challenge, seems a little withdrawn since being nominated by everyone, maybe the technics will get him? :)

Azriel is really basing a lot of her emotional stability on this game, and the friendships she made there. She's extremely fragile, and let's hope the others are mindful of that. It's a shame that she's putting so much into the game - I think most of the stress she is bringing on herself is undue.

Factors for being banished: Seems like the game is REALLY getting to her (she really IS Karen!), her whining at times is a little much, I have a feeling she is MISERABLE and some may want to euthanize her

Guru seems to repeat himself a lot... possibly he is trying to convince himself of something? He seems to be full of explanations, but he really doesn't look like he's putting much into the GROUP. He does post, a lot about himself, and he does one-on-one's beautifully... the only problem is that he seems to make little effort (he says because he doesn't have time) at joining in the topics. This could be a factor in voting during this banishment.

Factors for being banished: People holding grudges from before the game, people not buying into the N&IG (New and Improved Guru), his whining about not having time to post much, his lack of connections within and without the game

Merlin is trying to get close to some, but may "stick to his guns" at times that it is inappropriate. It can be said that he doesn't know when to quit, and to stop hurt feelings from being completely mangled. May not know as much about the human mind as he believes. Deep down, I think he's here to win, as his strategy is beginning to creep through.

Factors for being banished: not up for banishment BUT... his out-of-game activities, his RR which was viewed as sexist, his not divulging as much information about himself as others have, the view that he can be a little "holier-than-thou" at times, some people feel that he thinks he knows more than he really does

Juju is hard to gauge. I think there is something more to her we don't know, and that is something beyond what she looks like.

Factors for being banished: "Slim pickins" theory ("no one is up who I want banished, so I have to pick 2 anyways..."), her privacy (some feel it's more like secrecy and doesn't have a place in the game), some feel she is "hiding something", her previous nomination of guru

Can we evaluate you now, Spam? Can you take it?

Addition to Juju - her coment to Azriel during the "debate" (some see it how Az saw it)

I was asked to do this by Twiggy, and that's why I did it... I didn't not ask for your evaluation, Tukuul... you've shown it many times on your own.

besides, there was a reason for my behaviour... and those who cared enough to ask what it was when I came out know what it is...

Spam, thanks for coming back to the board and posting all of this. Obviously, you have insight that many of us do not.

I have another question - how do you edit your post after you post it?

Tukuul

Yeah, it looks like you really care by the way you talk about them.

Cool, I figured it out. Forget my question, Spam

You click on the little pencil and paper beside the time of your post, Leap.

Where exactly have I said anything bad about the people I care about?

It's a shame that the truth hurts, Tukuul, but it is still the truth.

Also, I think some of your evaluations are outdated and biased. LOL!

Sound familiar?

They're as accurate as other posts available for reading here... and, just like those posts, they're just opinions based on what is happening in there...

Gee whiz, if you've all been doing it this long, I'm pretty sure it's ok for me to do the same... I'm just following your lead, Tuk.

Besides, Twiggy ASKED for my opinion... I never stated this was a report, quote, or fact.

I absolutely agree on your take on Juju..
Tuk.. let's let Spam have her voice. I think this is well written.

A GREAT read!

Tuk you have your tabloid. This is Spam's Flash!

Take a deep breath Spam. If you would slow down a bit instead of taking everything personally hurtful, all this will eventually smooth over.

That is, if you want it to.

Good lord, Tukuul... do you honestly think I'm being hurt by what you're saying? Opinions only count if you let them.

Now really, you are the one who's been sitting out here jabbing at me... every time I post jumping on the opportunity.. so which one of us really needs to slow down?

OK, as this has degenerated past the point of no return... you hold your opinion, I'll hold mine... and let just ignore each other like civilized people

Whatevuh. I certainly don't agree with you 100%. Sorry you are not pleased.

Spam... a good friend of yours (Vitresse) jumped all over me for giving my opinion about you. She wanted to know what facts I had to back them up. I had prefaced my post by saying I had no proof, just a feeling. And now your saying it's OK to give opinions about people not based on fact... which is it?

I am sorry Spam..
I asked her for her opinion, because I know she has a sense of humor and is a good writer. Let's give her a fair chance.

Any questions to her can be emailed.

Back to discussion..
"Azriel is really basing a lot of her emotional stability on this game, and the friendships she made there. She's extremely fragile, and let's hope the others are mindful of that. It's a shame that she's putting so much into the game - I think most of the stress she is bringing on herself is undue"
I see her that way, too.
But, I also think the others respect her.

Twiggy... I am not trying to inflame Spam, but when you give your opinion about someone you have to expect some flack... there are people in here that are friends and will defend each other...like vitresse did for spam... I wonder where vitresse has been lately....and how I would for moon... it's human nature.

Twiggyish

I think Spam knows that and she knows how we feel about Moon, too. It took a lot of guts for her to post this.
We have room for more insight into the house! They have been entirely too quiet and complacent in that house, lately..lol

People have jobs and not everyone works at home and can post throughout the day. Plus, everyone is getting along without all the "sandpaper" conversation.

I wish they would post more reading material myself, but overall I think it's great what's happening in there.
