Dear Bob,

Don't you have e-mail?

Did you see we're getting good ratings now? And don't ask me, "compared to what"!

This sniping between Jodi and Kelly is good, good, good. We're gonna see if we can get a catfight through the house and into the pool to boost ratings further. It worked for Dynasty, didn't it?

Look, we CAN'T cancel SO! I mean, do YOU want to have the distro dept. try to sell a 5-day-a-week Simple Life? I rest my case.

And just how the heck did Tyra get her own show, anyway?

Regards,
Jon

Now, on to more important matters. What haven't Rhonda and I tried lately?

Besides working, of course.

ADMINISTRIVIA:

I’ve decided this will be the make-or-break week for this game.

Those of you who have participated have done well. But is the interest wearing off?

We need more from the HOUSEGUESTS (esp. the current ones) in Be The Houseguest for it to work! We haven't heard enough from you playing the HGs, not to mention interaction between them and the LCs.

Remember to use your sigs, or at least sign off as your characters.

If you want to join in as a RECURRING character, please sign up in the signup thread before posting.

SEVERAL CHARACTERS ARE NOW AVAILABLE by virtue of their players not having posted in the first couple weeks. They are:
Allison
Bethany
Kim
Dr. Stan
Towanda
Sommer

First come, first served in the signup thread. That's where you'll find your sigs also.

The Confessional Chair is a bit swamped IRL. It's okay not to post if you'll be away or unavailable; just let me know. Otherwise, I can only assume you're uninterested, which isn't fair to someone who might want to play.

At this time, the following characters are claimed:
LCs: Rhonda, Iyanla
Season 3 HGs: Christie, Christina, Jodi, Lisa, nuLisa, TJ, Jill, Buffy, Kelly
Previous season HGs: Maureen, Andy
Others: Bead Shop Owner, the SO Car, the Universe, Garden Buddha, the Confessional Chair, the Self-Portraits, the Kitchen, the Refrigerator, Box of Tissues

Inanimate objects who wish to change to unclaimed HGs may do so in the signup thread.

Do NOT post as a character that's been claimed. Thanks.

You can post as ad hoc, one-time characters WITHOUT signing up. If you intend to reuse your character, please do sign up...thanks!

And HAVE FUN!

Non-players: THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD. Discussion-type posts may be removed. BUT . . . You may address or ask questions of the role-players as their characters.

E-mail or PM me with any problems.
