I am not a moderator on any Tengaged site but I feel bad when players message me telling me they were banned there.

I am hoping that if players post their links to their accounts that randomize will see there is a problem. Please comment if you are currently banned or were previously banned.

Thank you for any comments and have a great weekend!]]>If you were banned on the Brazil Tengaged site because you were a good player? Please post your link here for me. I keep getting messages from players who were banned or are currently banned by the moderator on that site.

It has to be more complicated than that, right?]]>My stupid question is what exactly is the strategy in a 13 post game? I understand not having to talk a lot. I get that part. I haven't played very many so my question is do you just talk in the pm's and that is how it works?

Thank you to the 255 people who voted and participated in the survey!

Question #1: Who should receive a payout in frookies?

Top 2: 1.5%
Top 3: 1.0%
Top 4: 9.0%
Top 5: 17.0%
Top 6: 45.0%
More than 6: 26.5%

Clearly we see that Tengaged would prefer that the Top 6 gets a payout, but next we'll look at whether they think they deserve a KARMA payout, or just T$.

Question #2. Who should get a KARMA payout from Frookies?

Only the Winner: 2.0%
Top 2: 2.5%
Top 3: 8.0%
Top 4: 62.5%
More than 4: 25.0%

So that would allow the Top 4 to get karma payouts, while 5th and 6th would receive some sort of T$ payout.

Question #3: Do you think the payouts for Frookies are currently too high, leading to an inflation in the monthly karma of the monthly rankers?

Yes: 28.5%
No: 71.5%

This shocked me honestly, since I think +1000 karma on the month is completely ridiculous and it rewards players who play games non-stop but oh well. Tengaged has spoken!

Question #4: If you answered "Yes" to the previous question, what do you think an appropriate amount of karma is for winning?

Due to the ranking system its hard to put a percentage on what people said, but on average these were the suggested results:

1st choice - 15 karma
2nd choice - 20 karma
3rd choice - 10 karma
4th choice - 5 karma

Since just above 20% of Tengaged thinks there should be a reduction in karma, perhaps a 20% reduction in karma to 20 would be appropriate.

Question #5: How much karma should 2nd place receive?

Another ranking system, but here were the results:

1st choice - 10 karma
2nd choice - 5 karma
3rd choice - 3 karma
4th choice - less than 3 karma
5th choice - 15 karma
6th choice - 15+ karma

I could see that, first place getting 20 karma, second place getting half of that with 10 karma.

Lastly the karma breakdown. After reading through the suggestions and analyzing the results, this would be my suggestion:

1st place - 20K + 70T$ (5 karma lower, 10T$ higher)
2nd place - 10K + 20T$ (10 karma higher)
3rd place - 5K + 15T$ (5 karma higher, 5T$ higher)
4th place - 3K + 10T$ (3 karma higher)
5th place - 10T$ (No change)
6th place - 10T$ (No change)

Thanks for reading and voting everyone, hopefully we can get some sort of change in the future!

*update 4/23/2013

After reading the comments and the results of this survey I feel the majority of you are happy with the current payouts and would not like them changed. Regarding the players who do not vote in the jury I think most of you would like that changed. I personally feel that people who choose not to vote should have that option. I think it makes a potential winner think over their strategy towards other players.

I am talking about the twenty people in this game:

http://www.tengaged.com/game/87483

Is this a glitch that randomize doesn't know about? Is it because people are joining simultaneously and more of them get in?

There was a game a few weeks ago where a player was not nominated and then there was the Final 3 and he still had a green check mark under his name. How does that work exactly?

I was just wondering if anyone knew?

I keep walking and I hear this parrot sounding bird squawking and it's getting closer but I couldn't see the bird. I am looking in the air for this thing because I just know there is a loose parrot in this store somewhere. Finally I look down the aisle and see this guy crossing and he has this yellow parrot with a red head that sort of resembles the picture on this blog.

I can't see that this bird is tethered to the shopping cart so I start moving away from the guy. Now the guy seems to be following me down the isle. I politely say to him "A guy with his parrot shopping at the hardware store, huh?". I am moving while I say this because I do not want to get close to this bird. So he says to me "Yes, it's just me and Snapper shopping".

I just smile and walk away from him. It is taking forever for me to find these little things I am looking for and he comes up behind me again. So I walk away and just watch him until I realize this guy is not buying or looking for anything. He is just giving this bird a ride on this shopping cart!

My conclusion is that people will do anything to make their pets happy:)

He can look under the hood of a car that won’t start and easily see the spark plug that popped out or the fan belt that came off.

He knows how to change a flat tire and how to check the oil and jump start a battery.

He can use a skill saw and has an electrical tester and knows how to use it.

He likes animals and is kind to all living creatures. This applies to the ones he doesn’t really care for too.

The perfect man is never rude to a waitress or waiter and he is gracious even when he receives the wrong order.

He also knows to tip 20% of the bill no matter what type of restaurant it is.

He is always compassionate to people who are less fortunate in life and does it willingly because it is the right thing to do.

The perfect man will get my input before making a decision that affects both of us.

He knows how to hang a picture and how to find a stud in a wall to put the nail in.

The perfect man is not afraid to try something he hasn’t done before and tries it just for the sheer joy of learning something new.

A man who doesn’t talk badly about the previous relationship he had and this applies to family members he doesn’t like too.

The perfect man does not argue with people for the sport of it and can freely admit when he has been wrong about something.

I probably left out a few others that people would find important, but these are a good start.

Tyler (http://www.tengaged.com/user/Bamold1999) is banned because he posted a link on Tengaged that someone gave him in a skype conversation. This link eventually sent the person who opened it to a porn site.

I feel bad for him because he did not intentionally send a porn link to Tengaged. Hopefully either randomize or Tengaged_Moderation can talk to him and remove his ban.

After reading the conversation he showed me from skype it looks like one person contacted him with a name he was not familiar with and persuaded him to look at this “safe” site that looked normal to him. I believe that this “unknown” person was actually a player from Tengaged who wanted him to post that link.

The purpose of this blog is to remind players again to NOT POST ANY LINKS on Tengaged. 

This means don’t send it to your friends either! This is how people hack your accounts and it is also how people get you to be banned!

If you don’t want any viruses on your computer? Don’t ever click a link! The person who sent it to you may not even be aware that it is a virus. I don’t open any links anyone sends me. Unless it is on a secure computer then I just automatically assume it is a virus. When my friends send me those cute pictures of something funny? I don’t look at them!!

If your computer is running slow? You more than likely have a virus. Run a scan on it often. You will be surprised at how many hackers have wormed their way into your computer.  Some viruses can be really nasty and be impossible to remove if you are not careful. They can work themselves through your entire computer without you even realizing it!

The next time you are in a Skype conversation with anyone? Remember that they may not even be the person they say they are!

Now let’s all join hands in a circle and chant that http://www.tengaged.com/user/Bamold1999 is able to come back to Tengaged and never posts a link again!

Thank you for your time it took to read this!]]>Here is what seems like the 10th time I have warned players about these links that get people banned!

Tyler (http://www.tengaged.com/user/Bamold1999 ) is banned because he posted a link on Tengaged that someone gave him in a skype conversation. This link eventually sent the person who opened it to a porn site.

I feel bad for him because he did not intentionally send a porn link to Tengaged. Hopefully either randomize  or Tengaged_Moderation  can talk to him and remove his ban.

After reading the conversation he showed me from skype it looks like one person contacted him with a name he was not familiar with and persuaded him to look at this “safe” site that looked normal to him. I believe that this “unknown” person was actually a player from Tengaged who wanted him to post that link.

The purpose of this blog is to remind players again to NOT POST ANY LINKS on Tengaged. 

This means don’t send it to your friends either! This is how people hack your accounts and it is also how people get you to be banned!

If you don’t want any viruses on your computer? Don’t ever click a link! The person who sent it to you may not even be aware that it is a virus. I don’t open any links anyone sends me. Unless it is on a secure computer then I just automatically assume it is a virus. When my friends send me those cute pictures of something funny? I don’t look at them!!

If your computer is running slow? You more than likely have a virus. Run a scan on it often. You will be surprised at how many hackers have wormed their way into your computer.  Some viruses can be really nasty and be impossible to remove if you are not careful. They can work themselves through your entire computer without you even realizing it!

The next time you are in a Skype conversation with anyone? Remember that they may not even be the person they say they are!

Now let’s all join hands in a circle and chant that http://www.tengaged.com/user/Bamold1999 is able to come back to Tengaged and never posts a link again!

The first one would be blogs . He is funny, witty, sexy and a smoking hottie. I have talked to blogs often and it’s hard not to be attracted to him. He is sexy in so many ways. He also happens to be a very sweet and sensitive guy. You would have to know him off of Tengaged to know the real Ben aka blogs .

Next would be wwemrpeeps . Doug is funny and always looking out for people who need help. I remember when I first met him and he would always say he wasn’t voting or he would promise me red lips back when I really wanted red lips. He joins a bunch of charity games to help people and he always looks out for the person while he is in their game. I like this about him!

My first crush on Tengaged was FrOntIeRpSyChIaTrIsT . Dav hasn’t been on Tengaged for a while and I miss him. I met him in a Castings game where two girls were fighting over him.  I read some things he wrote on a site and his wit and writing style attracted me to him. His sense of humor is off the charts and I never know when he is joking or not! There is just something about smart guys that is irresistible to me.

I could see myself with NexusCain . This guy has such wonderful insight and smarts. He has impressed me more than once on this site. He has a rather uncanny ability to hone right in on someone and figure them out. He also doesn’t have any fear of other people. I like that in a man! We have been friends for quite a while and I would really miss him if he left Tengaged.

Next is one of my favorite people on Tengaged and that would be wumblebee . I met him when he copied one of my blogs. I started reading his blogs and for a while actually thought he was the multi of someone else. His blogs are funny and most of the time he does these little short ones that I have no idea what he is talking about! We have been friends for a long time and he knows how much I like him!

My next person I could see myself with would be autobahn aka as @Shane. I still remember the first message he sent me asking if I was a guy or not. He also let me know that BengalBoy and FrOntIeRpSyChIaTrIsT were both straight just in case I was really a guy. His blogs always get right to the heart of things. I asked him one time why he keeps getting banned and deleting his blogs and I don’t think he even knows why he does it! I just know I would have fun with him in real life if I had the chance!

Last but not least would be BengalBoy because he is just flat out charming in every way possible. I have liked him from the first time I met him. I think I must have a weakness for these smart guys from the UK and their wonderful accents! He has always been there to talk to me. I won’t even go into the times he has tried to pull one over on me. I still like him in spite of those times!

I have a list of 20 more guys and I will add them in a future blog!

This is my blog for today and I hope everyone has a good Thursday tomorrow!]]>The following players on Tengaged are guys that I think I could have a relationship with in real life for different reasons. This would be imagining that we were the same age, the guy preferred females and we lived close to each other.  I am only naming a few because I don’t want to list every guy I have met on Tengaged and y’all don’t want to read through a long boring blog anyway! These are just guys who I think are interesting for different reasons.

Is it the first person who posts high that sets the pricing for everyone? If that is the case then where does it say the next person has to post in that price range or lose their shop if they are competing?

I know it has to do with what Tengaged is willing to pay. I personally am not willing to pay over 500 T's for a design anymore.

If the prices get reasonable again? Someone let me know. If someone desires to be gifted something? Let me save you the trouble of sending me a message for designs that cost more than 500 T's.

This is my blog for the day and I hope everyone has a great week!]]>Why exactly is it necessary for the designs you post to be priced so high?

It’s like a little neighborhood of friends that you just have to check in with each day to see what is going on. I have met so many wonderful people on this site from all over the world.

I can honestly say I have learned something new from each and every person I have had contact with on Tengaged.

I also have gotten some great advice for technical things regarding computers. That advice was free and always helpful. The computer I am on right now was recommended to me by a Tengaged player.

Some of the apps from my cell phone I posted on this blog. I have too many obviously and some strange reasons for having some of them. The ones with the animals are apps I used to make some raccoons I had in my attic be quiet. I finally got rid of those raccoons.  I need to delete those apps but I use them sometimes to annoy people with. I just called my sister and used the barking dog app because she wanted someone to wake her up because she has to go somewhere. I could have just walked up the stairs but barking at her from my cell phone was more fun.

I have always appreciated the fact that players have answered so many questions I have asked them about different things. Where else can you do that and get a personal reply and not feel dumb for asking the question?

Have a wonderful Sunday Tengaged!]]>Players ask me often about my reasons for being on Tengaged. Some of them are the same reasons most of you have for being here and probably for staying here!

You can eat them, smash them, microwave them, deep fry them or roast them on a stick!

You can also make Peeps pop art out of them like a topiary tree! I read about them in the newspaper today. They even mentioned Peepshi. That’s sushi made out of Peeps!

I was going to tell wwemrpeeps about these but I figured people have been telling him about Peeps every year around this time :)

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!]]>Did you know that those little marshmallow chicks called Peeps that we put in Easter baskets are 60 years old today?

Part of the reason for this is that it seems some of you can't remember the email address you used when you joined Tengaged. This is the hard part for me to understand. Maybe it's because I have a personal email and a business email and I don't understand forgetting either of them!

Your email address is what identifies you on this site as being the person who joined. If you click the link to reset your password and you check your email and don't find the link? You may want to check your spam/junk folder. If you have a filter on your email to block unwanted spam that is where I found the message from Tengaged to be when I reset my password.

If you have been logged on to Tengaged for a long time and haven't had to log back on it is easy to forget what password you used! If you have changed your email address a bunch of times than that just adds to the problem. My advice is to write down your password somewhere and the email address as soon as you join this site so you are able to log back in successfully.

If you still have a problem I would say to send a message to Tengaged_Moderation and to this link from your new email address and explain what happened:

admin@tengaged.com

That is the first address on the Contact link at the bottom of every page on Tengaged and it goes directly to randomize who is the owner of this site. I hope this helps some of you who are having problems.]]>I was trying not to do more of these kind of blogs but I keep getting messages about players who can't log in because they forgot their password and they can't get the link that resets their password.

FORMAL WAY

When I have to sign my name just one time on a document that possibly is important I use the nice neat signature. I also use this nice signature if I am only having to sign one actual piece of paper. My previous blog picture is an example of my neat signature.

NORMAL WAY

I am a real estate agent and sometimes I have to sign just one contract thirty times. This thirty times includes a bunch of initials also. I have to sign and the buyer has to sign so we both are signing every page of these huge documents that have lots of disclosures. When I have to sign this kind of contract my hand is usually tired by the end but the signature still has to be readable. Both of us have to sign exactly the same each time as to the complete name. This gets complicated for people who don't usually sign with their middle initial all the time.

MESSY WAY

My third signature that I call messy is when I am irritated that I even have to sign something. This would be like when you have to sign for something on one of those machines or if they are asking for a signature that also has my printed name by it. They always accept this signature no matter how crappy it looks even if they can't read it.

My hand drawn printed name is probably the easiest to read. That is the one on this blog. If your hand printing is difficult to read? You should know that I got a job once based on the printing on a job application.

Have a great day everyone!]]>I have three ways of signing my name! I think most people do too. I call one the formal way, one the normal way and the third one is the messy way.

I always thought it was a bit of fun to think of something every day to blog. Most of my blogs were just boring little trivial blogs about stuff that happened to me the day before or later in the day. When I looked back at these blogs I realized it was like taking a little journey back in time through the last almost 3 years I have been on this site.

I also thought I would probably delete all those blogs if I ever left this site. Now, when I look over the blogs of some of the players who are no longer on Tengaged I know that I won't delete them. The blogs left by the players that have left this site are like having a conversation with them even though they are no longer here.

This is my blog for today. Talking about designs and whining about things are not the things I want to read about if I look through my blogs again one day:)]]>When I first joined this site I would get up and check on any games I was in and then I would post something before I went to work. If I was in a rush I would post a blog after I got to work when I got a break.

This is a picture of my hand on Tuesday with the bandages on it. It feels better every day and I get the stitches out in a week.

Thanks again to everyone who sent me a get well message. I appreciate it!]]>I had surgery on Monday to repair two tendons in my left hand. I injured my hand when I was standing on a couch doing something and lost my balance about a year ago.  When I braced my fall I bent my hand back too far. Thankfully I am right handed!
