Okay, so... it's my first post here. I'm interested to see what goes on next in the game (once I'll have the time and energy to start another one).
I've done two games so far. I enrolled in really bad times. Had tons of studying to do. The second game was a big big mistake to enroll. At least that mistake got me to be in first place. haha. At least that.
It was interesting to see how people gradually grew more open, and how I grew more open myself, as the games started drawing to a close. I think that in the last game I played, ( 8326, I believe) I managed to get lots of my allies to the finals. Five out of the final 6 were members of the same alliance. The sixth was a nice guy who I was forced to fight against, by circumstances, but supported him toward the end. He got 2nd place and won it fair and square. I assume that because so many of us were friendly, and so little backstabbing was going on, that we were all so comfortable opening up about the 9 game days we've gone through.
I'm fascinated to see how I might be able to turn these casting games into games where the feeling is more similar to the feeling of housemates. How all 20 of us, or 18 of us (since it's hard to connect in the first 12 hours)will feel as if we're a part of the same house. I want that despite the necessary alliances, and necessary secrecy, that on some level we'll all talk to one another, through some common thread or team. I got a few ideas. Guess when I'll have time to play again, I'll go for it.
Knixuk... what do you mean by the negging? There was negging on both games. There was a lot of negging in the final four on both games. In one of these games I wasn't even ON the final four.
Hey, Pablito. I bought the yellow. But i dunno if I wanna try the rookies yet. I wanna watch seasons in the US version in which they actually have these rules. So far, I've watched season 1. DO NOT GIVE ME SPOILERS!
Anyway, I've watched 2 evictions, and the rules were not the same as I understand they are now.
