Bartle Bees are native to that town Mel Brooks and Mel Blanc retired to. You know, Melville.

This is indeed an inauspicious beginning for you, young Dana.
Sorry! I read fast to try and catch up and just voted for what sounded best. I didn't know I had to keep a balance!

Don't feel bad! I didn't read anything and just voted, so that could have very easily been me.

Well, the first three I thought of were:

1. When Yossarian declared he had to consult with his "teammates" in thread in his first game ever.

2. When Mongoose PMed me in Bioshock targeting someone who was not in the game.

3. When my team (In my first game ever) had a one-time recruit and we recruited the person who was gunning HARD after me (Dom) and it was a total disaster.

I'm sure I could think of more.

OMG who did I try to target who wasn't in the game? I totally blacked that out.

Was it Vomps? I bet it was Vomps.

Wow, I'm suddently pretty proud of my first game.

True story:

When I was young, we'd frequent the park. There was this one kid on the merry-go-round, and I was of the age that I had to do the spinning more than the riding. So like a roid-raging Pat Sajak during the final puzzle, I hurled those kids as fast as I could. They whirled and whirled over the sand like a UFO over Death Valley.

Well, this one kid I mentioned had a runny nose. Both nostrils. The produce of which started dragging in the sand. After several revolutions, this child had arm-length snot lines covered in sand protruding from both nostrils.

I think that moment was the one in which I stopped being a child. Because ew kids.

I would have been amazed at his apparent superpowers.

Heck, I still would be.

Kate, but to be fair, you were playing two games at once, and Kate was in the other game, and Bioshock was crazy complex.

How about when Mr F was on my baddie team in Beatles on LP for his first game and came in the thread and announced he was gone for a day and came back to fourteen PMs. And still survived half the game!

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 1:50 am**

Lol, I loved that game, Daisy! Being the Walrus was so much fun even though a lot of people thought I was a baddie.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 1:51 am**

EBWOP: And I forgot about Mr. F until you brought him up just now. He was always interesting, haha.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 1:59 am**

Haha MR F. He got lynched in Beatles Mafia, rabbit's game and Last Man Standing 2 (his first 3 games) on the same day. Great stuff.

Man - beatles was fun except I kept suspecting all the wrong people and giving mr f the benifit of the doubt.

You know this walk down memory lane is making me question why I play a game I'm so bad at. Lol.

For teh lulz obviously.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 5:58 am**

In LOST:Revolution I cross posted in those chatrooms a bunch of times. It was a sockpuppet game, and the baddies had multiple sockpuppets on top of the regular sockpuppets, and all of those embedded Chatangos (and remember the green lights in Chatango, that lit up in any chat you had ever been in so people knew you were online), you had to be SOOO careful, and I could not handle it, lol. Careful thy name is not me.

Anyone who has ever been in IRC or a chatroom with me knows I do the &/7 thing like always, and I posted in a chat as Dragon Knight (my regular sock) and Chris saw it, and did the "Hmmm", then I did it AGAIN as Ethan Rom (my role) in front of him again, but I think he did not catch it that time, my teammates posted on top of me to scroll it up. I also accidentally posted a post meant for the baddie chat in one of the game chats, too. No one noticed it, and teammates posted it over again. So those infernal chats were a curse but a blessing too, they were so confusing, but you could hide errors, which you can't do in a thread.

Those chats were so awesome. They turned out to be our undoing in the end but they were one of my favourite game mechanics ever. The hatch chat was great.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 6:36 am**

That game was in my Top 5 for sure. It was literally an Epic game, there were, what, 50 players? It needed 4 hosts, lol. And it must have been a ton of work for them. Had it ended, I doubt we would have won, I was flailing badly when Rabbit disappeared. But we lynched a lot of civvies that game, and had an awesome chatroom, good times

So tonight, if this challenge is anything like the SURVIVOR challenges, we need as many people here as we can get. Challenges were fun in that game, but they required teamwork.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 8:18 am**

LOL, yes, Mr F has had some crazy antics over the years! I miss playing with him; I wish he'd come back.

I know, right? Lol. But it was my first game, so that's my excuse.

S~V~S caught onto us the moment we recruited him, haha. I miss IAHAP too, she was a lot of fun!

Hey.

I either make the best coffee in the office OR everyone else is too lazy to do it and so they pretend I make the best coffee in the office in order to trick me into making it.

Ha! What they don't know is I am everyone's Jewish grandmother and am always trying to feed people anyway. We had a Mexican potluck on Friday and we have all this Ro*tel dip left over, so I made one kid a grilled cheese using the congealed Ro*tel dip as the "cheese." It was disgusting to make, but he seemed to like it.

The cafeteria special today is Thai Red Curry. I'll probably have that after yoga (they offer free yoga classes in our corporate center four days a week).
