Somewhat amusing is the fact that Rite, who is aparently taking a hiatus from the site, said that he wouldn't be leaving entirely, because how could he abandon his game of Balderdash....

I think mathcam just wants me to disappear so that he can catch up to me in the blessed game 8)

[Kerplunk]

Vote: B

Sure hope this is the right one.

[shadyforce]

If not, someone's going to get a shitload of points.

[MeMe]

(yay!)

[Talitha]

Hmmm... I'm sure that MeMe is just excited in anticipation of the round being over once mathcam has his turn, right?

-bump-

[mathcam]

Sigh....if it

is

MeMe's, at least I wasn't going to catch up to her anyway. I hope this is either correct or MeMe's....

Wow, getting 6 players to take your definition

and

getting it right yourself is unbelievable. More points in one round than other players have scored in total.

[Kerplunk]

Very nice job, Sugar. Congratulations.

[mathcam]

Ouch.

Cam

[MeMe]

Bah, Cam. I thought I could at least divert

your

vote from B. "Balcony." Hmmph. (Nice job, Sugar)




Alright -- final word of the game is

Personally, I was thinking "I hate winning games. I sure don't want any points this round." I'm glad to see my plan worked out entirely.

Cam

[mathcam]

Stupid plan...*grumble, grumble, grumble*
