How is it fishy she needs help figuring out skype? SHE'S 70! lol I think her biggest problems are going to be her cataracts and her arthritis flaring up from so much typing. I hope this old broad goes all the way! Was just thinking that the easiest way of proving whether or not she is an alias was conveniently not an option and that if the excuse was ongoing that something is really fishy. If she was legit, I am sure she either had relatives, or relatives of friends who could help her set things up - or if she was in a retirement home, there are staff members who would assist her in the matter. Either way, that is all moot now that we know for sure that it was an alias...

Well it was definitely an alias, but now she sent her "real" pictures, and it's another old woman. They didn't come up in google reverse image, however. And she said that everything she put on her app was true to herself...
I mean at least she's online all the time, so she'd be active. Haha.
And couldn't the fact that she's at least willing to Skype be a good sign? Like, sure she "doesn't know how to use it" but if she was an alias she would probably be like "oh no sorry my computer is from the 1980s and doesn't have a microphone."

It is a good sign, but remember how Wesley joined the finale Skype conversation? We still (mostly) don't know who Wesley really is/was. So there is that... I am just trying to offer some thoughts on how to determine who this applicant really is, that's all.
I am 100% hoping that Janet really is an old lady ready and willing to play some iSurv1vor. I would be especially interested to see what would happen if the old lady were to end up in the same tribe as underwear boy somewhere during the game and how they would interact with one another.

Funny that we mention Wesley because the kid randomly Skypes me all the time.
I'd say yes to Janet but I'm just getting a weird vibe from it atm.
And does anyone know smart places to advertise? Anyone currently in any games where we could advertise?

I have to give my respects to Janet for applying!
Alex has been around facebook orgs, so he will try to lead as usual.

Oh and Skylar's application was cool especially his dance routine at the beginning.

All this hoo-ha about aliases! Megan was one in Bermuda/HVV and it didn't do her game no harm. It would be disappointing if its somebody who has played before and doesn't want to wait for the next AS or maybe somebody doesn't want their face out there.

I don't mind aliases as long as I know about it tbh. If someone doesn't wanna reveal their identity, have at it, but I'll warn them it'll probably be difficult. If 'Janet' really wants to pull off a 70-year-old lady charade, lol okay then?
I just don't want it to be someone like Sam in the end.

I love T.J. the guy knows what he's doing and there's an air of Malcolm from Philippines about him. If he gets far, it wouldn't be surprising if he makes the finals, win and make All Stars. There's my call.
Michael is another Tengaged player, it's going to be interesting to see him shift from that stupid website onto something long term and much more challenging.

There are longterm ORGs on Tengaged which are pretty much just like proboards - just everything takes place there. Depending on the host, they're pretty legit. Just after a while, you start playing with the same familiar faces.

I am pretty new around here and have to get used to some of the personalities of the folks who weren't on the allumni last season

That would be so like him. "iSurv1vor is rigged, but don't take my word for it... Ask this innocent old lady!"

The issue with his game, and one of the reasons I voted him out the only time we played together, is that he tries to control TOO much. Like he tried to control which way the vote was swinging on both tribes in our game. For that, and other reasons, I voted him out. If he can be a bit more subtle with his approach and remain charming, I'm sure he'll do fine.
