PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Shakes....A humble suggestion.........." |
LAST EDITED ON 05-22-01 AT 09:23 AM (EST)Shakesvivor is an awesome thing. Many of us old-timers remember how the board all but died after the final episode of S1. This time around you have single-handedly sparked an interest that will last for weeks to come. Suppose just for an instance your cast of characters actually competed, actually voted, actually won immunity... For example; Weekly random announcement of Immunity challenge..could be something as simple as an internet search to find the answer of a trivia question...or even (post merger) pick a number from 1 to 10... He who responds first correctly wins Immunity... Weekly vote: Contestants e-mail AK or you the vote...to keep it anonymous, y'know? Non-participants votes don't count and most likely they will be the initial bootees anyhow.. I know that there might be a concern that it just turns into a big popularity contest, but hey, you've got some big guns in here....and we're all friends, right? ...or you could just write your stellar summaries. (Why do I have the feeling that your response will be to highlight this line and post "Thanks! I think I will!) It's your show clowny. It's just, as I said, a humble suggestion.... *Prepares himself to be the first bootee*

4. "RE: Shakes....A humble suggestion.........." |
Shakes, please consider Supes' ideas. I thought we were going to get to play. Just being picked and put on a team gave me a lot of insight into the Survivor dynamic and the kinds of insecurities that come into play immediately. Yes, and it's even more like real world in some ways, because alliances have formed before it even starts, but still, it could be really interesting--especially if it's a game of wits and humor and there is immunity to throw a monkeywrench into the alliances.Please consider letting all the contestants who want to play contribute with their own very entertaining voices, and then you get to take that material and bend it into your hysterical twisted summaries. Really, your summaries will be funnier if you are commenting on real interactive material, just as with the Survivor summaries. After all, Mark Burnett could have hired people to act out his lame scripts verbatim (I know, some would have it that's how it works), but it's that little bit that's not under his control that makes the show worth watching, spoiling, bashing.
If people don't want to play, they'll just get voted off early. I don't think any of the participants will mind that! I only ask that we get a window of time to get our responses in. I would even like to play in real time if we could get a time when everyone could log in. You really have created a phenomenon here. Play it to the max! "ONLY A PAWN IN SHAKES' GAME" (adapted from bobby zimmerman) PS. Dear Clown Creator, please let us know if you're even listening to our prayers, er.. I mean reading this thread.)

Oh yeah, I've got a real life pic of you so I know you're not a blonde! I still think Bubbles so perfectly fits your personality. You are sweet and kind and cute on the outside, but when your feathers get ruffled...ooo doggies look at Lisa go!
I've decided I want to be a combination of you and Dalton when I grow up!

10. "do you really think he cares?" |
you guys are living is a dream world if you think this
asshole actually cares what you people think! Haven't you seen the way he operates on the boards? The guy is nothing but a tyrant!I saw him with my own eyes reading this thread and ya know what, he was laughing! And that caused me to laugh, which was a big mistake cause rule #1 here at the Shakes Compound is that never, under any circumstances are you allowed to laugh AT the clown! So, you know what he did when he saw me laughing.....he came over and threw a steaming hot tall double mocha latte with skim milk right in my face! And then he wouldn't even let me leave the office to go to the Emergency Room! And you think he is actually gonna listen to YOUR suggestions! Why?! Cause you are part of the cast??? Do you think that makes you special? In the dickhead Clown's mind, that means that he is gonna treat you worse than the regular people on this board.....he was laughing in the elevator yesterday about how he is going to ruin all of your lives and have you hating each other by the time this whole charade is over! Do yourself a favor and get out while you can! Oh BTW, I see that some of you still don't believe that I have actual inside info so tomorrow night I am going to post the name of the first bootee.....that ought to silence all the critcis.

Hey, you!!! Yeah, YOU...
> So, you know what he did when he saw me laughing.....he came over and threw a steaming hot tall double mocha latte with skim milk right in my face!
*** That's a dirty lie!!! Shakes would *never* do that! I'll bet it was your own stupid fault - you probably inhaled the foam and passed out into the latte, didn't you??? > And then he wouldn't even let me leave the office to go to the Emergency Room!
*** Again, blatant lies!!! I know for a fact that at Shakes Burnett Productions, he has a crack team of clown paramedics on hand at all times!! Of course, 20 of them arrive piled into a tiny little ambulance, but that's besides the point! Hey, "shakes wannabe" - ooops! - I mean, "NOT shakes!" Did you downgrade this thread to a lower rating, you weenie??? Because *I* rated this with a ten this morning! I hope to meet you on the island, wimp boy! I'll throw a kangaroo in your face and hope it knocks you into a pit of monitor lizards! Pppphhhttttttttpppp!!!!!! **************************************

17. "This is so sad..." |
What a pathetic cry-baby.He lives a meaningless life of drudgery, dominated by a ClOWN for god's sake, and to top it off he puts skim milk in his latte! What a wimp! His only hope is that he will get some attention by posting on these boards, but his inept social skills cause him to be an outcast right from the start. And it's too bad, because it would be nice to have someone to rely on for some dependable spoilers - but this guy is such a loose cannon, how can we trust him? Listen, buddy, I'm sorry that your life sucks, okay? But if you want to be accepted and listened to here, you'd better adjust your attitude mighty quick. You're dealing with the upper-eschelon media whores of Shakesvivor, not some second-rate losers from a show like Fox's Love Cruise, for cryin' out loud.

LAST EDITED ON 05-22-01 AT 05:31 PM (EST)Okay, I don't mean to get all serious here, but I promise, promise PROMISE - I *do* understand that this is just a game, we're only playing and killing some time till S3, and that we can't expect too much from Shakes as he does have to work! And that any double-crosses or bad things that happen to me on the "island", I will *not* take offense to, be angry, etc. - I know we're just playing around and this is just for fun! And I know that this "Not Shakes" guy is one of us playing around, and that we're all acting and re-acting to the predictable "I worked for Mark Burnett and here's what happened" Unclecameraman types! We'll keep it all in fun, won't we, you guys? And Shakes - we love ya! Thanks bunches for coming up with something to keep us occupied and the boards hoppin' till S3 gets in gear! You only do what you can, okay? We'll be here!

I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!!! While I understand the "need" to make what seem
like perfectly good suggestions.....and perhaps
pitch a hissy fit over the weirdness of it all...
there really is nothing to be done!!! It is a game going on in the Clown's head and he
is going to write summaries about it that have
a lot or absolutely nothin to do with nothin cept
making HIMSELF HAPPY!!!! But in the meantime....ItzLisa all us snotty Arses on
my team would appreciate it if you would STOP
assuring DK a spot w/Supe/Vamp/Lisa AFTER the
Merger....DUH!! I like DK and if she gets booted
for a backstabbing traitor for the "enemy team"....
well, it will be ALL your fault!!! Also, check your back Itz....with the MEN on your
team ya should have gone for "Ditzy Blond w/Bubble
Brains". Might have been the "smart move". LOL. Anywhoooo, I figure Shake's way will save me scads
of time....I'll just read his Summary every week
and not have to watch the teevee show at all. Dalton

25. "RE: I can vouch for that..." |
>Yeah, that's all true. And
>I do have a life,
>but I love games. Hey OutFrontGirl, I am so glad you are posting over here on Off Topic. For those of you who don't know, OFG, RR and I are old players from Survivor Market where I think we all got our start on this board. I can tell you that she is a fierce competitor and I wouldn't overlook her potential. By the way OFG, Have you noticed that skierdude13 is remarkably similar to ski4speed44 the notorious cheat from our glory days on the Market? You are on the same team as he is. Do you think Shakes is planning a real 'beef jerky incident', and setting you up to uncover the cheat? Kismet
P.S. I know none of the 'cool' people(except Erist and Koko) played that game but a quick glance at the Suvivor Market thread "The Scarlett C" will explain what I'm talking about. Yes I AM too lazy to link to it!

27. "SurvivorMarket" |
Kismet, as OFG probably remembers, I played SurvivorMarket at first (she used to drive me crazy by offering to sell shares for 25 cents less than my price -- no matter what price I set!). Then the people at MarketEcho were revealed as a bunch of weasels (I won't go into the details here), and I stopped playing -- I didn't want to help their site. Too bad; I had a bunch of honest shares of Tina as the winner....

28. "RE: SurvivorMarket" |
Hi Kismet--I'm happy to see you posting too.
You should have been drafted for your bull-shirt story alone; that was so funny. Shakes' loss. Oh, that's right, you didn't want to betray your husband. Good for you!You know, I wondered about the skier doubles at the time. Both using numbers, too. Ski44 once had the nerve to post on Market echo to find out why he didn't get paid off on Jerri for the RC.
When he was cheating so hard and being flamed in an adjacent thread, too. I don't know, our skierdude doesn't seem that scheming, but he could have an evil twin. AyaK, I'm really sorry I frustrated you with the .25 thing, although then Kismet was doing it to me, vice versa, and several others, and the rest of us talked about it on a thread. Truly though, that was because we were competing to sell our worthless stock that we got as marketmakers (or what we thought worthless, not always the same), and you have to have aggressively competitive pricing to sell stuff that will shortly become of no value whatsoever. I never undersold the stock I believed in--thus I ended up with a lot invested in Tina too. That's interesting to hear they were weasels at ME. I didn't hear anything about it until they closed down. I'm just hoping Shakes isn't about to pull a Market Echo and shut down the show in midseason. If you can't finish it, you shouldn't get people into it (mmm, that applies to so many things).

31. "RE: SurvivorMarket" |
AK I'm sorry I didn't include you in the 'cool regulars' category. I remember seeing your name, but you never posted in the SM treads during the fiasco so I forgot. IIRC, You and Webby stopped playing at about the same time, was it because of ME? I wish you had posted about the 'weasel' aspect. OFG-Ski4speed actually posted on the Closing down thread. He was complaining that it was shut down and he was #1. I responded with my first and thus far only flame. It was like therapy! (No, I didn't report it in the news guide, that would be a conlift of interest. I am glad you liked my 'bull-shirt' story. I am also glad I am watching from the sidelines on this one. Much more fun to watch report the madness than participate in it. I'm rooting for you girl! Kismet Got to go Buffy is on!

Remember: the "summaries" will only be an incomplete, biased accounting of events on a heavily edited "show". There is far more activity taking place outside of the summaries than in the summaries!
