Yahoo Apprentice Game
« on: January 06, 2007, 01:15:29 PM »
Every year I play the Yahoo TAG.  But there can be teams, like the Fantasy Survivor.  I was wondering if anybody would want to play as part of a team.  I've already signed up to play.  Do you want to be on my team?  I can create one.  Please let me know.  :js:

Yay!  A third player!  But you must have a Yahoo Account first.  Ok...Here's what to do:

Go to http://games.tv.yahoo.com/trump, click on Sign Up, follow the instructions there, and then click on "join a private group".  When you do this, it will ask for the group # which is 839.  The Password is refaforu.

If you have any other questions, RJ and I will be glad to answer them.

YAY  Tanny for joining :jumpy: :jumpy:

Okay, one question I'm wondering about.  Between TheCinera and I, our score is 140.  So why aren't we showing up on the leaderboard??  ???  Can somebody help me find out please? :(

It looks to me like they are only listing the "individual" leaders. Individually, you are at 70 each. The cutoff is 126.

That doesn't make sense....why would somebody be able to set up a team and then not show a teams score?  I've played individually over there before, but never as a team.  Thought it would be fun.  Maybe I can try to see what I can find out.

In the meantime, we'll just have to keep track of our scores...aaargh :-\

Hey TC (do you mind me calling you that or something else?), yeah I need to submit my picks but don't worry, I will.  I was having computer problems this week.  I was hardly able to post here.  I was able to log in but for some reason I would try to get into this folder or the Anything & Everything folder and it told me there was some error and had to abort.  I know it wasn't the site cause I saw others posting.  I think it was our server and/or router because all of us in the house were having a hard time.  Anyhow, now I'm here....YAY :woohoo: :dancer:

I'm in the process of making my picks.  But Tanny, do you think it's a good idea to post our answers here?  I mean in case others see it and copy off you, then they may get ahead.  Does that make sense?  Just wondering. :js:

A suggestion:  maybe they can be posted over at our teams site.  What is everyones thoughts on this? ???

Hmmm, hadn't thought of it that way. We have been posting our spoilers and speculation here.

Do you think someone would come here and steal an answer from me? Good luck to 'em, because I ain't sure about nuthin'!!!  :lol:

I'm not sure....could be wrong on this.  But during the Survivor Fantasy game, didn't we at some point suggest we go to RFF's chat room and talk about our possible answers?  I know I saw s1 and TheCinera there often.  I think it was for the same purpose...so our team could climb back up to first or as close to it.  A lot of people come to RFF for spoilers.  The answers may still have been posted.  I can't remember.  So if I'm wrong, sorry. :js:

BTW, I sent you a PM ;)

Hey TC (do you mind me calling you that or something else?)
Doesn't matter to me.  If you want to call me TC or Cinera or Mark (my first name), I don't care.

I don't think that posting our answers anywhere is a good idea.  I was thinking that the three of us compete for the top spot in our group (or tribe...or whatever it's called).  I post my answers right when they come out in order to get the bonus.  Any other thoughts?

Since we cannot win a team thingy at the Yahoo game, (there are only three of us anyway) it would probably be fun to compete against each other.

But if one of you guys gets in the top 50, I am willing to help you any way I can!!!  :dancer:

gee, wish I'd seen this sooner.  Didn't know anyone would be interested in the Yahoo game!  I've played it, just on my own a couple times.
I'll ck it out and might start playing...

Yes, it was suggested to go in Chat, but I've wondered...can't anyone go in?  If so, our answers can be seen.  If we want to keep our answers between us, it should be done in IMs, PMs, or EMs.  Right?

Hey team, I joined RJsTribe awhile ago.  I'm trying to find where to make my pick for The Apprentice, but maybe I can't do that until the new questions are posted, huh?  ???

Hey Tanny!  :yaya:  Thanks...looking forward to competing with you too!   :tup:  I'm sure I'll follow thru with this game...unlike my bailing out of Football Fantasy!  :groan:
Btw, who is Chuck?  ???  An RFF member??  Maybe I know them already?
