We're gonna bring you beeyatch's down to Chinatown! Bow down to our shikadee, losers!

Meh. It's not like every member of my team is participating. And I'll be on vacation next week and don't expect to have a temp replacement. You don't need a full team to come up with a good product. It appears as though the black team is concerned about everything else (ie trash talking, member participation) but the task at hand

Go blue.

Damn, that's right -- Haight's probably going to vote for your team, no matter what!

Haight doesn't pick the winner. I like playing games, and I like fun competition. I don't like to play dirty just to win. That's not fun to me.

Oh, so the administrators won't be voting?

It's forum-wide vote.

Everyone will be voting, and everyone will get one vote.

Translation: The black team can all vote for the black team each and every round.

Careful, careful.

Not all are as sloppy as you think.

I still don't really like the inherent bias that favors the "must win" folks from the "want to be fair/honest" folks. (Whoever each might be.)

 

[Tigerlily]

Oh I'm up for trash talk in addition to the gauntlet, but we've reconvened (some members were out due to the holiday) and have been conversing via a private chatroom digest put together.

If only this were a hand-slap fight. I'd so win this.

Probably, I work damn hard to keep these hands baby soft and of merchantable "keyboard" quality.
The nit nurse in high school once told me I had very nice hands (for a boy).

Your fastidiousness is an example to us all.

Pretty boy!!

Why should I have to choose?

 

[Tigerlily]

If this were a thumb wrestling competition I'd so win. I have bionic thumbs, haven't lost a game yet.

i'm not big on trash-talking either. okay, that's a lie, i am, but on this board, i think it's a good way to cause some to go out of their way at voting time to choose someone else's entry just to put an aggressive (in their opinion) trash-talker in their place.

now, i may be wrong about that, but i'd rather not take the chance. it wouldn't be worth it.

 

[Totenkindly]

(Purely theoretical, of course, in light of your team.)

True. Yet another reason to revise the voting process.

^So is there going to be a "team congeniality?"

 

[Carebear]

Go away from a slow moving forum for a few days and suddenly everything happens at once. So teams are closed now?

Well, there seems to be two other people that want to play (ygolo and CzeCze), so if we get one more, we can add one of you to each team.

I don't think anyone would oppose that.
