Watch out, SnakeEyes.

Breaking the rules is bad for your health.

It'll kill you in the end.

My PM's don't seem to be playing up. I just received one now from now, Tanger. And I'm not sure if you're aware, SnakeEyes, but there aren't likely to be 15 clues altogether. That would be too easy. Also, I was hoping to help gain the team the maximum amount of points, you know?

So, situation as it stands: Damned if we do, damned if we don't. Shall we go for it and publicly post our clues on the boards? I vote yes we do.

What say ye?

Publicly only.

Then it's first come first served in the rush for the exemption. Makes it fair no?

Fair? In a game where there are no rules?

Ha!

As this seems to have gotten nowhere, and we are now debating on whether or not to post our clues in this thread, I'll throw a vote in for yes.

Getting nowhere surely pleases one of us :)

As for the no rules thing, well sure, but there's fair and 'mole fair'. Lets at least aim for the latter. We are the final 'super 6' the elite few (etc).

And now it seems more than ever, more difficult to make a decision.

Well, we all want that exemption.

We want to make it to the final 2, more than we want the points.

The mole has broken our team spirit, but each of us wants to walk away saying we beat the team also.

Personally, I have never given a damn about the points. If I won the avatar, what would I put on it anyway? No; for me the game is the enjoyment and the trophy is simply being the last man standing.

As a casual observer and yes, it's none of my business, but I see other members posting in here: for such an elite group, you have only managed to accumulate TWO pages of posts that amount to nothing. You are no closer to a game plan today then you were when this started.

I am laughing my bum off over the fact that each one of you state you want to publicly share your clues, yet not one of you has done so. What are you waiting for then? I agree with an earlier post, the mole has already won.

Most likely for the other players that have not responded yet to see what they think, a lot of thought goes into the decisions that have been made in this game so far.

I imagine, sooner or later, we should start posting our clues, but not everyone seems to have thrown in a vote yet.

Indeed. The preparation is key to 10,000 points.

Well since we all seem to be in favour of it, or at least thinking about being in favour of it, here are my clues:

trs007

Dentonite

Die Another Day Forum
[Which has been deleted it seems but that was what was in my PM]

bond111 forwarded his message (curiously he had deleted it and had to ask Matt for it back) and he had two clues:

SnakeEyes

Qwerty

Thanks for clearing that up.

Also the Die Another Day board is, in fact, still present. It is now a sub-category of the Pierce Brosnan forum.

Shall we continue to put all the clues in here, as we have about half of them now...

This game has been going on for a few months, and you needed to sign up before the game started, mattbowyer had a sign-up thread in February or something.

I know it's too late to sign up now. But when's the next sign-up sheet at? Should I ask mattbowyer? This looks like a fun game.

The next Mole game will not be for quite a while I would imagine, as there was quite a few months between this and the last one.

Well...

If a Mole III happens, it will be in the second half of the year. For now, bugging the current players seems to be a sport unto itself.

Yes, I may be away on business the next few days and I wanted to leave my clues with someone and was not going to post in the thread since not everyone has.

Also, I hate to say this, b/c it is going to lead to finger pointing, but one of the clues posted is the same one I have as well. Now, perhaps Matt doubled us up or, someone is not what they seem.

That's all I'm saying for now, as I do not wish to start a war I am not here to participate in. However, if my plans change, and they very well might, I'll be happy to see this through with you guys.
