sittem 4186 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Jerry Springer Show Guest" 10-17-03, 05:09 PM (EST) "ABPABC results Oct. 16/Oct. 23 Entry" LAST EDITED ON 10-20-03 AT 11:29 AM (EST) LAST EDITED ON 10-17-03 AT 05:13 PM (EST) The complexities of entering the ABPABC showed themselves in our first week of competition for S7. Only 4 of the 12 players managed to avoid choosing an ABP who wasn’t eliminated during the LC AB game. Normally that would mean they have been eliminated from the ABPABC, but this is a game that has to scramble and think on it’s feet. If it’s going to survive as a game, then executive decisions need to be made and rules have to be bent. After consulting with MB, I’ve decided to keep all the players in the game for the first four weeks. However, the penalty for choosing an eliminated player from the AB player this week was 25 points. Now, in another complexity that JP consulted in, it has been decided that gathering negative points in this way during the first four weeks WILL NOT go toward deciding the battle for last place – more on that later. The big winner of the week is lozengeoflove with 72 points. Close behind is sittem with 69 points (maybe because I actually understand this game!!). Tribephyl and buckeygirl also managed to stay away from any penalties for choosing an eliminated player. In what appears to be a situation where echogirl couldn’t decide whether to play for positive points or negative points, she now stands tied for next to last. Djandy managed to come in last this week WITHOUT choosing a booted ABP – that was quite a feat, and in the revised rules for the game djandy actually holds a 27 point lead for last place (if you don't understand that ask - I'll explain it seperately if necessary0. Other notable scoring happened in the bonus areas. Seven players each received 10 bonus points for naming ABP’s who said the Secret Woid “immunity” somewhere in their ABC post. The most popular ABC named was sleeeve by 6 players. Echogirl was named by the other one. Several other AB players would have given you points in this area and I'll let you look them up - just look for the secret word in their AB posts. Thanks to all who cooperate in the Secret Woid from the ABC – it makes reading their posts even more fun. Both the BS and WS came from the red category. Seven people received 7 points for getting the BS and five received the points for WS. No one was able to predict that guessitrains would receive the best score in the PTB contest so no points were awarded there. Of note, lozengeoflove, sittem (based on echogirl who posted after him choosing sleeeve as her Secret Woid player) and PlumBlossom each received 24 bonus points for each getting their Secret Woid and BS and WS picks correct. The Standings below come in three colors. First, those in black were able to avoid picking an eliminated player in the ABC. Next we have the color orange. These people did pick one or more players eliminated from the FABULOUS ABC and received a 25 point penalty. Finally, djandy is red for scoring a “pure” negative score this week. Great job!! As I mentioned above, those players receiving the penalty will not be in the running for the worst overall score unless they are able to gather enough negative points without choosing an eliminated player. (Game note – for players eliminated I counted their score for the week as 0 as it applied to your overall scores – the 25 point penalty was subtracted after your overall points were totaled.) 72 lozengeoflove 69 sittem 50 tribephyl 22 PlumBlossom 21 JohnMc 16 buckeygirl 13 ejm92 11 froggy446688 -5 FarmBoy -13 echogirl (sorry you've gotta be orange!) -13 Nash -15 djandy OMH - in the original posting I forgot to give you the three groups for picking your BS and WS!! Here they are: Bebo, KermittheVixen, Lolly, bubbastan, SurvivorManiac, 321Jump, rwj3eb, RudyRules, Thaibeach, PackMan, djandy, echogirl FesterFan1, LeftPinky, LozengeofLove, GuessItRains, Punkin, sittem, bengapol, ulalame, DracoMalfoy, GTmike, magic_star railfan, Corvis, TeamJoisey, sisyphus, sleeeve (maybe he'll be blue next week), thstein, PepeLePew13, yensid, I_AM_HE, managerr, forehead Anyone can still enter the game whether eliminated from the ABC or not – anyone entering now enters with a score of 0. As you can see, judicious use of your picks could give you a lot of points quickly and if the frontrunners stumbles in the next three weeks you could be a leader quickly. The rules remain the same this week, EXCEPT, choose a maximum of 11 AB players. Also, this is the 2nd of 4 non-elimination weeks. I won’t even say what the penalty will be yet for picking a booted player – probably 25 points, but running this game is like running through the jungle while in an Immunity Challenge – sometimes you just have to make a quick decision and live with the results. One other note – watch what your AB players do late in the day Thursday if possible. With the better spoilers not posting their picks until Thursday a number of players take the LC late penalty and change a pick to stay in the game. Lozengeoflove and several other players made changes in the ABC to avoid elimination. Others didn’t and that led to their demise. This is a game where you’ve got to watch what the AB players do. And, in a shocking twist in the AB game, if you have been eliminated from that game you could actually gain re-entry if S7 returns a player from Loser Lodge to the real game. See the LC post here:http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID4/1944.shtml Finally, go to this link to get the rest of the rules of the game: http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID4/1934.shtml 2002 IceCat Originals, Inc.

"RE: ABPABC results Oct. 16/Oct. 23 Entry" LAST EDITED ON 10-23-03 AT 05:37 PM (EST) Thanks for the late clue. I am changing again to see if I can improve my score. You'll have to let me know sittem if I'm starting to get it. Now that the boards are back up, I figured I'd try this again and see if I can do better than 2nd last place or even worse. My AB Picks are Bebo, Lozenge of Love, FesterFan1, railfan, KermittheVixen, Corvis, Left Pinky, SurvivorManiac, bubbastan, sisyphus, TeamJoisey, SW - bubbastan BS - green WS - red PTB - Guess it Rains   Top

Also, you can come back and edit up until showtime without any penalty.
