Alt Party!!!!

*slaps head*

Rather obvious.

Well Brann suggested having a couple of those contests. If someone else is willing to judge and award then its fine. Just, please, dont fill the place up with hundreds of those stupid voting boards!

in case you did not notice I put a big smile in my post
I was speaking tongue in cheek

I had a feeling someone would take it the wrong way

I do not really care what ppl post about, just find it ironic that ppl do not much care anymore

Edited to add...

long tradition? just what do you consider long? hehe
the cartel is not that old to be considered a long tradition

Oh I dont know,i think having a few contests would be a good idea. More people can win money that way.

lol, try confusing your whole family by calling your parents the 'rents' or 'rentals'. At one point I had an abbreviation/nickname for every member of my immediate family.

OK, I'll send you a notie with the deets. Do I still tally the pleebs here?

Different categories for prizes would work well.
Some of us might not get there until later, giving us an unfair advantage over those who've been there a while and have been more closely examined for any and all resemblance to mains.
And, with people coming and going, you might not get to meet up with everyone. I like "shiniest av" - no doubt Crazod has a pinball AV somewhere...

I'm convinced. More categories (cats?) is cool.

Well, dang. Everyone knows Mumfuzz already. I'll have to come up with someone new. Newb gear sounds fun. Unless I get sent out of town again, I'll be there. March 7! Can't wait.

Wheee - I HAVE to go to Canada this weekend. Sigh. As much as I love going to Canada (I really do. Despite the fact that I goof on Canada a lot, it's a great place) I wish it wasn't mandatory and I didn't have to work all weekend while I was there. I need a vacation.

All work and no play make Trout ANGRY.

Come as a chick...then you can rate yourself.

Thank you for making that sound like a 3-year stretch in Alcatraz.
Except for the miserable weather ranging from mildly melty to perfectly polar (usually within a 5 hour time span to give the highways that extra special slickness we enjoy so much), Canada is really a very spiffy place.

If ya wanna. I think it would prolly be best to keep it a bit quieter, but if ppl wanna tally, sup 2 them.

I don't know if I I'll be able to attend, but I'll pony up a grand on behalf of the Cartel Founders.

lol - I'm sorry. That's why I put the disclaimer in. My objection is being sent to Canada on business and having no choice in the matter. I LOVE going to Canada. The fishing in BC is phenomenal, the people are nice, the atmosphere is really cool. Canada is a wonderful country. In fact, I'll probably go back sometime in the next few months on a long weekend just for fun.

Unfortunately, my great Canadian adventure this weekend involves a lot of meetings, wearing a tie and looking at the inside of a conference room in some stupid hotel. I might get taken to a nice dinner, for which I will, no doubt get stuck with the bill, and I'll be lucky if the turkeys I work for will reimburse me anytime this year. As much as I love Canada, I'd really rather be doing something else this weekend.

I am the Alt and rather than create another account, maybe I could send my Main. Though lots did meet her at the hangout a long long time ago, she has a totally different life and style and personality -- and I think only 2 or 3 actually know she is me - or I am her - or however that goes.

Yosef is looking for you, LM...

Huh? How did I miss this thread?

Count me in! I'll add $L1000.
So not only do we come as an Alt, but we have to look newbie? Hmmm... So many choices, so little time. Maybe I'll unleash my inner whore. Heck, I might even wear some heals, Yikes!

What's all this wagering about then? Does the money go to the first person to recognise Drivin Sideways in a throng of newbie alts purely on the quality of the chat-up lines?

I'm puzzled. Someone help please.

It's called The Forum Cartel and is free for any and all to join.

I MIGHT be at the party. I might be out of town, so we'll see.

MAx, I'm flattered.


The primary winner is the least-guessed alt. I think the ladies have other prize categories in mind.

Prize categories... "pricats"? I'm trying to learn to speak Clairese.

And the most matched....me thinks

I'll definitely be out of town. That's the weekend before my RL birthday, so I'm running away to celebrate.

That part is something of a downer for me. I have to look like a newbie. And everyone else would look like a newbie? How . . . grand.

That's the trouble with five-page threads. By the time you get to the end, it's covered in pie and other things.

You don't HAVE to, Soji

B.

This is actually still the second page on my settings. But everyone else will look like a newbie.
