and I totally agree with you both, Well said. And thank you for standing up for GreenRowan. I am feeling very sorry for Rowan that anyone would ever say anything negative about her or the WS. I mean seriously, she could just not do it! I for one am thankful that she does. hugs all around

I wish people would all just be nice to GreenRowan it upsets me that people are acusing her of favoritism or not being fair. :( I have seen absolutely no evidence of this behavior and I think whomever thinks this must be projecting their own insecurities onto Rowan. I really love this event as it is helping me get through difficult life circumstances that are going in right now. It's so nice to be able to delve into a different world for a little while, so thank you so much Rowan!

Oh and as for those saying it's unfair and bias stuff going on then maybe this isn't the rp to participate in. When it comes to judging it is not merely GreenRowan. There are several people, so you are saying THEY are unfair as well. If you don't like whats going on there is a door and don't let it hit you on the way out. This is a friggin game, don't take it so seriously. Omg so you can't pick a prize first at the end... It's not the end of the world. People have bigger things in life to deal with (me for one right now) then being first place. And if it is kept up I will gladly push anyone off a cliff.

Also sorry I'm cranky and a bit real life upset and it pisses me off that something that is enjoyable to me and gives a small reprieve from what is going on is being tainted. :(

I just now realized there is a number next to my name and it is not the number I sent in. I chose and it says . Unless I am mistaken and the numbers next to out names are not the ones we sent in. If that's the case just ignore me n.n;;;

You know what? I've had it too. I'm not one to speak out on boards. I am a hermit crab. I'll hide in my little shell and sometimes come out. But this is getting absurd. Seriously absurd. I shall like to make several points clear. WS1: My team was at the bottom of the pack through the entire game. Yes we were upset, yes we were frustrated--but at no point did we believe it was on anyone's part, least of all Greenrowan's. W2: near dead last, frustrated and lost several players. What happened? We asked what we could do to improve. Greenrowan went to the judges and asked for a review of our role play. Hell the review was painful to read. Yes, it hurt, but we took the comments and WE worked as a team to fix the issues in their comments. Guess what, we tied for first place. We went from tears to cheers. W3: We haven't been looking for bonuses, we haven't done anything differently other than just be the team we developed in WS2. I have personally asked for a judge review of my avatars because they never seem to be going anywhere.

My point, be the change you want to be. Stop bitching and moaning and ask for ways to improve. Stop giving GreenRowan grief and remember that she is giving HER time and HER efforts into this game. Also remember that aside from donations SHE is giving HER SP and CSC to give YOU prizes. if you are unhappy, well ask how to change and improve.

I'm getting tired of people claiming that GR is unfair. Hey its her game and look how upset some people are making her. Seriously, remember this is a GAME and she's doing her utmost best to bring something to you for your fun.

I have now said my peace and shall wait for people to blast me out of the water. Come one give it your best, let me cry instead of Greenrowan.

, , , and and everyone who has posted in GreenRowan's defense..., AMEN and Thank you!!
I couldn't have said it better.
I know I'm just an observer this time around, but the wayward squirrel is to special to risk losing because of a few people getting nasty because they're panicking over a point or two. Relax, DON'T PANIC and above all PLAY NICE!!!!!! I don't care what the point totals are,... everybody wins at this game. so chill

Hugs, warm wishes, and prayers for both you and your friend Patty. I hope all turns out well for you both.

slow claps for and

Not to mention the fact that doesn't do the scoring and judging herself.. she has a whole team on anonymous judges to makes things more fair for everyone.

Haha, YES.

<3

HA! , You're RIGHT! It's part of our job, to be LAST! We have to make sure every one else is out and safe.

(and yah. so we can sneak off first, to the pub)

HUGS YOU GIRL!

(i miss Freida. I hope she's well soon) and YOU! GO TO BED! you need sleep. or at least, put your feet up.

I'm with you hon, if they want to go after someone let them come at me I am more then happy to take a few people down a couple of pegs. I am a very nice and understanding person. But when people have their head so far up their bum that they can't realize they are hurting someone. Well then my claw come out and my teeth turn razer sharp.

I second that. I get very defensive for friends or people I feel are being bullied. I honestly, have zero tolerance for bullying. I've been a little afraid to post because my team is in the lead and its easy for people to claim I have nothing to be upset about because we are in the lead. Well I have plenty to be upset about. And my friend upset is one of those.

-hugs-

I don't even know my teams standing and to be honest I don't care, this is a game hell Rowan can attest to the fact that the last two years I have refused to get prizes till everyone else had one. An even then it was only because she twisted my arm. I do this event because it's fun and I like eing able to get to know people through it.

hehe I still didn't claim a second prize from Nusty lol, so I totally understand. I love role playing. I love my rp Raven to the point she's my forum, siggy and current avatar lmao. The point is to have fun. People are loosing sight of this.

I had made one for Lirien a while back so i know what you mean

so I dont add to greenrowans large amount of pings, I have to 2nd, 3rd whatever everyones positive thoughts to here, yes its a game where in the end everyone wins, through these events I have met some great friends that I know count as close friends and without greenrowan and her events I would never have got to know.

I apparently missed someone being ignorant and for that I am thankful,Normally I have fun during the WS events but it's hard to do so when someone keeps persistently being a giant asshole. (Sorry GR but I just can't even anymore.) Eventually the negativity gets to everybody and slowly drags everyone down with it,I have been avoiding the event for reasons,One of them being that I just can't handle the incessant negativity. It's like man if you can't actually contribute something productive then just don't...Don't be the jerk that ruins it for everyone else.

Wow I'm not sure what went on, but really guys this is just an online game where the prize is something virtual that doesn't even exist in reality. If the game is frustrating you that much to where you need to focus your anger on others then please, by all means, quit playing and go find something else to do. You're just ruining this for everyone else and placing the rest of us at risk for there not being an event like this after this year. Personally attacking other won't merit you further points or cause anyone to give you a pat on the back. :( (Now if the prize was a couple of million dollars to where I could quit working or a harem of cabana boys then I would personally chase Rowan down until she gave me these prizes so that I would stop pestering her. lolol :D ) *hugs *

There were messages. Basically something about if I ate these treats (Brainy cupcake and cookies. hahaha!!! :D) it would rejuvinate my brain and restore the obvious lack I am experiencing. SO made my day. :D

You rock. <3 I totally don't know if we're loosing with style or taking the cake. But having fun is definitely what it's all about.

Yup. Throw ice water on us. Give us a thump on the noggin. It's a GAME. We gotta chill. :) AND IT'S SO FUN even if I loose. Which is entirely possible. My poor team is likely dragging me through the motions as life tries to punch me in the stomach right now.

So we love you, even when we seem like we don't. <3

and Well said. Whoever feels like this event is unfair can take a hike. GR puts so much time and effort and love into this event and for anyone to be harassing her like she's been harassed is absolutely unacceptable. She never shows favoritism. If you're doing badly, it's you and your team's fault, NOT hers. She doesn't judge contests, she doesn't score these things alone. She has a team of people doing that for her. It's complete bullshit that she's receiving grief AT ALL. This is an event that she freely gives her time, energy, sp, csc, and patience to hold, and she has for the past 3 years. DO NOT TAKE OUT YOUR PERSONAL ISSUES, ANGER, AND FAILURES OUT ON SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T DESERVE IT. Go punch a pillow or something, but get your negativity out of here and away from GR.

Oh, and I saw the scales. Duly noted!

Oh good Lord, what the hell have I missed trying to sleep?

big hugs to you

I have only known you to be an honest, caring human being that goes to a lot of trouble to put together these amazing adventures each year. Hang in there.

hugs and prayers to your friend also

Sent numbers to you.

Thank you guys. I just hope people chill out or i will snap

I think it is total BS that people are throwing a fit over a game that GR keeps even with her panel of judges. and i agree with what said!

stop bitching and complaining about WS and how its run because i have done a few of them and they are not unfair to players that are not friends of GR.

Grow up it is a game meant for fun which all the rest of us seem to be having
