Attention Houseguests:
After an abysmal showing in the POV Competition where only 5 of you made an honest attempt at the POV, I have some bones to pick with you.
First of all, I don't care how lazy you are, at least give me, as a host, the common courtesy of making a post and posting one name on a list. I, as a host, have spent 54 days slaving over you guys making sure the game was fun, challenging, and interesting. All I ask is for a LITTLE bit of effort on your end, not all competitions are 5-second True/False competitions, as ORGers you should know that.
Furthermore, you are all ignoring my penalty promises. The rules are CLEARLY stated. ONE DIARY ROOM ENTRY PER WEEK! That does not mean "Post a Diary Room whenever the fuck I feel like it and not actually try" That means, ONE Diary Room Confession per week about something game-related! Do I have to have a novel from you for your DR's? No, but I want participation. One DR per week is not overkill. For those of you that have kept up, thank you.
Also, one of you blatantly told me they don't like posting confessionals and don't want to. Well, guess what......I DO NOT CARE what your preferences are, rules are rules, and if anyone speaks back to me like this person(you KNOW who you are) did I will give you 2 strikes. Strike 1 is a warning, strike 2 is expulsion. Rules are rules, I don't care how busy your lives may be, you can sign on for 30 seconds and make a quick post about what is going on in your head.
I have stacked this game with secret powers, twists, and great competitions, and the majority of you are spitting in my face. Do I realize this is probably bad hosting etiquette to call you out publicly? Yes, but maybe this will light a fire under all of you!
For those of you that have been keeping up with everything required, it means a lot and you nwill be the first choices for All-Stars!
The rest of you, step it up! We have been in this game now for 54 days, you can't possibly tell me nothing has happened to you yet. I don't care how busy your personal lives may or may not be, you can commit to this because I can despite the fact that I am doing the following things on top of hosting:
1. Taking 17 collegiate credit hours
2. Trying to bring my grades up in some of my classes
3. Spending a good 3 hours a day making sure everyone is keeping up with the boards
4. Playing two All-Star Games at once outside of this
5. Working on my Season 2 Board
6. Hosting an independent radio show
7. Chasing after all of you to do the competitions
So, don't give me the "I'm too busy to post a Diary Room" crap! You're not, because I'm not too busy to meet my deadlines and make sure that you're all taken care of!
If you don't want to put full commitment into this game, fine, that is your prerogative, I just expect a bit of respect for the game I am putting on for you.
If you have any complaints/comments, post them here and I will gladly work them out with you.
