For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

1. The challenges are held in a Yahoo Group chat (the link is one the 3rd or 4th page I think). The challenges are given in the chat room, but the challenges are posted on this board, and in other spots (she gives us the link to the challenges)

Really the only way to find out who the Mole is is just by strange activity from them (their point is try to get you to lose as much money as possible). Its based mostly on how you think (its mostly guessing at the very beginning of the game).

Ammer: All of the information needed is somewhere on the thread. She posted about Wednesday or Thursday asking if anyone objected with the time given, and no one posted that they had a problem with it, so she probably figured everyone was fine with it. The challenges are only on the board because there's very few places to put them, everything happens in the Yahoo group (the link is a few pages back, which I skipped over many times as well).

... and I'm going to take over the world! Muhahahahahaha!

Yes, I don't mind people missing, that's what I said. I expect some people not to be able to make it, all I ask is that they tell me. And, I did post several times when the first challenge would be. I said, on the Mole group on Yahoo, that it was 'The very first
challenge is scheduled for Monday at 5pm EST. If anyone has a problem
with that, please PM me and I'll work something out.'. I also said on this very board 'The very first challenge will be at 5pm EST on Monday. If that's a problem for any reason, please PM me and I'll try to work in a better time.', and '2pm NST on Monday. ', and 'And yes, it should be 4pm for you, 1lewysgal', and '5pm EST. about 30 minutes from now'. I made it very plain when we would be starting, and I am offended at the statement that this isn't well organized. I have put up the plans for this since THURSDAY, and have even PMed people who never post on this board. I even posted the rules both on here and on the Yahoo group. You want to drop out, fine, but you didn't miss anything because I didn't post it.

So if I check out the yahoo page I'll be a little more clued in?

the time is kinda bad for me (I have work to do ¬¬)

It won't always be 5pm EST, it's just when this first challenge was. It will be at varying times. And basically, what you need is to read this entire thread, most of the information is pretty spead out through it, and you really can't grasp everything without reading it all. :)

Simply put, if someone has a problem with any time, they need to PM me. I will work out what's best for the group, but if I don't hear anything before each challenge then the time set will stand.

Tue Aug 17, 2004 1:06 am

Yeah, you'd probably get more info there. Or search for the TV show (if you are looking for just what the Mole does, and how the whole thing works.) on Google or something.

She also tries to figure out a time which the most possible people can be on at the same time. If you have any problems with a time that she posts, just post or PM her and it can probably be worked around. ^-^ It is fun though, so I encourage you to join whenever possible.

...and I am going to take over the world!!! Muahahahahahahaha!!!

Tue Aug 17, 2004 1:11 am

I have read the whole thing..or at least I think I did to (my memory is acting funny lately)

Tue Aug 17, 2004 1:43 am

And actually there was a time when only 2 mole contestants were on by them selves with the host for at least 25 minutes waiting ...

Tue Aug 17, 2004 4:03 am

The best advice is just be observant. Try to notice who is acting strangely, or who might be doing TOO good of a job. Just something out of the ordinary that might print someone as being the Mole. :)

eep. First day and you already have the question who is the Mole up. Of course the people on the show had were always present. Mep.

Tue Aug 17, 2004 5:12 pm

lol actually, it's the standard question. Who is the Mole? will always be question 10, as it's kind of a Mole tradition. Pretty much every Mole episode showed some player trying to decide which player they thought was the Mole. :) And don't worry, there is one person who is pretty much guaranteed to go, since I have not heard back from her since she applied. And no matter what, it's always the person who gets the most questions wrong who leaves, so if you get 8 questions wrong but someone gets 9 wrong, you're still safe. ;)

*Edit* Okay, the next challenge will probably be this Thursday, at 6PM EST. (3PM NST) If anyone has a problem with the time, PM me and I will change it to something more suitable. And if the day itself is a problem, please PM me and I will excuse you from the challenge. :)

Tue Aug 17, 2004 10:22 pm

Okay I just realized that I can't go on the yahoo chats because I would have to download something and it's not my computer, so I'm not allowed to download anything..Does that mean I will have to drop out?

Tue Aug 17, 2004 11:14 pm

Seriously, you can't download anything to your computer? weird. I had to download the chat, too, for my computer...... No, I don't think you'll have to drop out, but I'll simply have to PM you with the challenges for certain things instead. And, of course, you'll be able to participate in challenges that use neopets. :)

Tue Aug 17, 2004 11:56 pm

We only have to do this Quiz right? Nothing else?
