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."

Did anyone one else have the same problem I had last night? I figured out the code and called in. The voice on the other end of the line said, “Congratulations. You have solved the mystery of Push, Nevada…blah, blah, blah…” Then the voice went on to explain all the rules to me. It said I would need to leave my name, a phone number where I could be reached in the next 72 hours, and alternate phone number, etc. So, I left my name, and the voice played back my voice saying my name to me and then it said something like, “If this is correct, say, ‘Yes.’ If not, say, ‘No.’ Sorry we could not understand your answer.” It hardly even gave me time to answer! Well, it gave me another shot and I kept saying ‘Yes’ into the phone, but it told me again that it did not hear me. Then the voice told me if it did not get an answer I would be disqualified from the contest. I was thinking, “I didn’t come this far to make it to the final 25 people to lose because some stupid machine can’t hear me saying ‘Yes’!” I finally got past the name part of the call and made it to the first phone number. This one went the same way until the voice said something like, “Please hold while we connect you to a live operator.” At this point I thought everything was fine. After about half-an-hour of waiting, my wife called the number on my cell phone and got the message I’m sure many of you heard dealing with the fact that they already had enough participants, and I was still on hold. So I waited, and waited, and waited. After almost exactly one hour, the voice came on and gave me the message that said they had enough participants, and it hung up! Is this some kind of sick joke?! Did I lose on a technicality?! Did anyone else have this happen? I couldn’t believe it. After being on hold for an hour, they hung up on me because their stupid machine couldn’t understand my voice, is what it feels like. Now, how hard would it be to get one person to answer a total of 25 phone calls? That’s all it would have taken! Does anyone have any similar stories from last night?

Who the heck is going to believe me? Besides, I found another person that the same thing happened to. We're wondering if this is part of the whole plan. They have our names and phone numbers. They know how to find us.

They >know how to find us. > Jonathan1 Pretty much the same thing happened to me(as far as the recorder not being able to understand me) except I got transfered to a 'Live Operator". The live operator answers almost immediately(I didn't get put on hold), a woman says "Hello", I say hello and my name, she says "Hello" again, she can't hear me. She says hello about 4 times then says to someone else, "I don't hear anyone" and hangs up. I threw a fit and my phone, after probably 2 minutes I compose myself and call back. This time it takes my information. According to my cell phone, I made my second call at 9:24. This means my first call was between about 9:11 and 9:15. The clue was given at 9:06. The whole situation just makes me sick. I will pray for Caller ID.

If my first call had gone through, I might be real excited right now, but there is no way 9:24 will win. I'm not that smart and a long time went by between my first failed call and my second completed call. The thought of missing out on $1,000,000 because of a phone problem is really disturbing. My wife couldn't sleep last night.

Bebo, hon, have I mentioned how much I admire you? You're such a pretty girl, with such a big heart and such searing wit. When people ask me who I most admire, I tell them, "Bebo, for she is everything I want to be, she is the model we should all live by, she is pure and woderful and magnanimous." So, when you win the money... remember that, okay? Femme
