Hi-de-ho teammates! :D Ya'll ready to win this thing?!

So, what should we name ourselves? Here's what I've thought of so far, none very creative, but I'll keep thinking on it.

Red Hots
Red Hot Chili Peppers (dig that band)
Hot Rods
Read Devils / Red Devils
Code Red
Read Every Day

The Firecrackers of Doom!

The little red books of Chairman Mao!

The Scarlet Letters!


Oooh I'm so ready to win. Are we trash-talking? Bring it, non-primary coloured teams, and blue and yellow (everyone's least favourite primary colours)!

*Reminder to self, ABANDON the coffee cup BEFORE popping onto SOS threads...my PC will be so grateful*

Now that I've wiped the coffee off the keyboard, I must say you've got some hilarious ideas, O Doomed Firecrackers!~oops, something happened to the order!

I will have you know that pink is the color of youth, health, vitality, and romance...

...that, and the color of George Michael's socks when he was still part of Wham!.




Hhhmmmm...perhaps that wasn't the winning arguement that I originally thought it to be. ;P

The Scarlet Letters is cool! Good luck Moss! (you'll need it *snicker*)

haha, bring it lesser spectrum! The coffee was deliberate sabotage, Judithe. Mind how you go, or we'll get bookcase next.

Pink, pft. Red-wannabe.

LOL! The coffee is 'cause y'all make me laugh so hard! And as one primary to another, bring it on! *grr...I want that shelf now! Just can't wait for this to REALLY get rolling! 29 hours till Sunday midnight...not that I'm counting, or begging Steph to stay up till the wee hours of the night or anything like that ;D *

What? Steph sleeps? *gasp* Is that allowed?

...Erato consults Chapter 6 paragraph 13 of the 'Mod Handbook' and it specifically states that "All states of rest, be they slumber or general relaxation, must be tempered by the volume of challenges at hand. The needs of the many, outweigh the need of Steph's REM sleep."

It's not me! the book said so! ;)

BTW, pink is the new red. LOL!

J tiptoes away, fearful that *someone* might come round and start heaving that hefty tome...this could get dangerous!

ROFLMAO!!!!

Lucky Steph has stepped out for a night on the town .... otherwise the whip might come out ... hahaha

*shudder* flying books, cracking whips...Really Evil Dominatrixes...*sneaks off again*

I'm partial to The Little Red Books of Chairman Mao.

It has a good beat & you can dance to it.

Hello all! Great suggestions! I like "Read Devils" & "Really Evil Dominatrixes". I don't have anything to add right now, sorry. I'm currently making shweet love to my coffee.

Hey! Don't dis the yellow. It's a very important part of the color spectrum. It's bright and sunny, and most importantly, the color of daffodils. Doesn't red mean stop? LOL.

Good luck guys.

Yeah, stop or we'll plow ya over. Eat out dust! ;)

Hi, Scarlet Letters! Or is it Rarely Evil Doms? Or True Bloods?

Back from partying the night away. But, not sure how long I'll last since it's a bit after 2a here.

Really looking forward to the game!

Hellllllloooooooo out there .... can anybody heeeeaaarrr meeeeee? >;)

*Ouch* You've got a real set of lungs on ya!

he he he...let me go tell my team the odds are looking pretty good for us!

I just hope you're all this busy when we start playing.


yo!, Jade Dragons!... prepare to crush some red-riding-hood readers butt!

We are READY!

Just checkin' where everyone lives and what the time difference is between us all.
Here's the scoop:

I'm in Japan - 13 hr ahead of EST (US)
Moss' in NZ - 3 hrs ahead of JST (me)
Crystal's in AR - 12 hrs behind JST (me)
Lethal's in NC - 13 hrs behind JST (me)

So at least Moss and I can chat while the lovely Crystal and Lethal snooze and visa versa. :)

Would someone like to *cough*Lethal*cough* keep a list of our reads throughout the game? Or be our team's poster for the chip placements? ;)

I'll be keeping up the overall game spreadsheet, as well, if you're ever interested and wanna take a peek, you can view it here.

Oh, and here's who we're battlin' on Game Board #1 - Game faces on, Ladies! :D


BLUE
Judithe
Jen (jlkish)
Amanda
Laura

GREEN
AH
Cindy
Lili
Alyssa

ORANGE
Shelleyrae
Nici
Kristen
Vivian

LOL! Ya'll get outta here! Unless you can find some Red Robins to pull in with ya next time! ;)

Hey Ladies, they're tryin' to gang up on us! I'm doin' the best I can to hold 'um off, but .... damn it! someone's snagged my whip!

LMAO! Who's trying to gang up on us? I've got a replacement whip if you need one, Steph. ^_^

Would someone like to *cough*Lethal*cough* keep a list of our reads throughout the game? Or be our team's poster for the chip placements? ;)

Hahaha! I'd love to keep track of our team's reads! As for the chip placements, I don't know about you but I'd like if it was rotated. That way everyone gets a chance-& the pressure is put on everyone as to where the chip will be placed. Hehehe.

Now now... it's just some healthy bit of teasing before we start.

You know Steph, you could make it stop if you just told us what the first two categories are.
I'm just trying to help you keep us busy and the mayhem at a minimum........

I'm HEEEEEEERE!!!!! Hello teammates! So glad I'm not on the pink team. I hate pink. LOL. I love red though! *whispers* (Steph, I think you have my time zone wrong up above. If NC for Lethal stands for North Carolina, I'm only 1 hour behind her, not 3. I'm in Central Standard time zone. ETA - AR is Arkansas, not Arizona. Is this the problem?) However, I concede that I could be wrong, cause I'm exhausted from a busy week at work and my brain can't think right now. I do work evening shift too so I hold later hours than normal people. I'm almost like a vampire. I'm even pasty white. LOL

No opinions about name. Code Red makes me laugh though cause at work that's what they use for a fire. You'd be shocked how many fires there are at a hospital. But I don't have any opinions otherwise.

Damn! Lost my post. :\

HELLO TEAM 'O MINE!! :D

@Lethal, YAY! Thanks for trackin' our reads. You did such a beautiful job w/BSB. I was thinking we could decide as a team where to put our chip and have one person post our choice on the board thread. Ya think? I suck at strategic thinking, so I'd rather not be solely responsible for deciding.

@Crystal, I probably miscalculated. I fixed the time differences post. Thanks. Also, from now on, I'm going to picture you as a vamp. ;)

Here are the names we've got in the running:
Red Hots
Red Hot Chili Peppers (dig that band)
Hot Rods
Read Devils / Red Devils
Code Red
Read Every Day
The Firecrackers of Doom
The little red books of Chairman Mao
The Scarlet Letters
Read Devils
Really Evil Dominatrixes
Red Reading Hood LOL!

Anyway, guess we should come up with something before tomorrow's announcement. So, get those creative juices flowin'. :D

Thank you very much, Steph! ^_^ I like your idea of the whole team deciding. The only problem I can see is what if the whole team doesn't have a chance to come in & agree upon a placement? It's first come, first serve when teams decide where to put their chips, right?

I like Really Evil Dominatrixes, Read Devils & Red Reading Hood.

I love the names! But doesn't matter what you choose, Team Orange is ready to kick some reading toosh! ::makes a mental note to work on the trash talk::

LOL Vivian! Yeah you need to work on that. I plan to stomp all over your team's eyeballs and then drink your liver out through a straw. Of course I hope we can be friends afterwards and share book lists. Mmmm...liquid liver.

I quite like True Bloods, was that yours Steph? But I don't care what we're called really, as long as we get internal organs. Game face!

I like you Moss! Even if you are the competition.

BTW Steph - Lili has returned your whip. I'm bringing my cat-o-nine-tails in to keep ya'll where you belong.

Heh thanks Cindy. See you on the battlefield!

You know Steph, it's officially Sunday here in the antipodes, so technically it's okay to lay that post on us.

ETA: Of course everyone else could get it tomorrow (your Sunday), which would also be okay.

*starts putting on some protective gear*

This could get messy.....

Good idea Alyssa (places book inside extra large zip lock baggie). Clothes can be washed.....books get protected first!

*starts throwing red berries at the red team*

Fruit is good for you! Mwahahahahaha!!!

*runs back to green team thread to hide*

Oh geez, I'm outta my league here. *looks behind her for back up* where are the teammates when you need them?

Vivian wrote: "where are the teammates when you need them? "

I ate them.

And then she had Chocolate Mint Cupcakes for dessert!

They were baked with love! I offer cupcakes and get hit with juice and ivy. Beware those Dragons, they be a little shifty

Dragon shifters are the best!

Moss wrote: "I ate them."

ROFL!!!
Ladies, we have a winner!!!

Jade Dragons... fullback!
You have made me very proud (and scared too) so you get an A+++ on this assignment (and whatever else you want!!).
They still don't know what they're up against, this was just a little tease and we've made our point. Now it's time to plot *cough!* spend some quality time as a team before Steph shows up.

To everyone else... enjoy the calm before the storm!

So truce for now? Because this one woman team is exhausting!

*bites nails and paces nervously, hoping Moss was bluffing*

Don't worry Vivian - Moss only ate the innards.....

Cindy (eclecticfirefly) wrote: "Don't worry Vivian - Moss only ate the innards....."


LOL!!!
I bet that will make her feel soo much better!

As long as they can still read, we're good to go! Orange team is tough, we'll bounce back!

Well - if you prop them up with rebar and 2x4's at least they will LOOK like they can still read.

Oh man, y'all are scaring off my teammates! No one's gonna want to be on team orange anymore :(

LOL!
