Picture Me Pictures.

Post by Davimad » Tue May 18, 2004 2:41 pm

Well folks,

We have the pictures, now it's time to guess who's who! :?

Please send your guesses to jperleevt (Jen)

I will have to take a bit of time to study these, it's not easy!

Hopefully, I will have my guesses in by tonight.

Good luck

This is going to sound really, really stupid, but I'm going to say it anyway.

When I opened the photo album, it was like...I can't describe it.

I actually choked up a bit! :shock: :cry:

I saw all your faces, and I felt like I was looking at pictures of my family. :)

It was just like looking though a family photo album and seeing faces that you haven't seen for a really long time. I cannot believe that it affected me that much. I was getting excited, and very curious to see what you all looked like, but it just blew me away!

Now that I've pulled a "Jersey", I'm gonna go blow my nose (allergies, don't ya know :roll: ) and go put the names to the faces.
I'm not as think as you drunk I am...*Hic*

...I'm just a Blonde! :lol:

Well, I love the pictures! It is great to finally get to see some of the family, even tho I don't yet know who's who. I had to laugh when I guessed who was who and then read my descriptions. I certainly can't get them both right, since who I thought someone was after looking at the photos didn't necessarily have anything to do with how I had described them. (I hope I got at least a few people matched up with their photos. And I sure hope I got Pete right, since I hear he's giving out a Dunce award for anyone who gets him wrong.)

I can't wait for the TRUTH to be revealed! I wonder when that will be. I'll be in Chicago for a couple of days this week and out of touch with my computer since I really don't want to haul it with me. I'm leaving early Thursday morning and won't be back until Saturday night, so if we don't get the answers before I leave I'll be on pins and needles and will probably check in with the forum as soon as I walk in the door, no matter how late!

It all depends on how quickly Jen gets the guesses in.

I sent mine last night, didn't want to hang around..........after all, I started this. It wouldn't be very good if I was late in posting! :lol:

Dianna, you cannot go away until all is revealed! :shock:
How will your nerves take it? :wink:

You might see Ol'gramma when you visit Chicago, wouldn't that be great? 8)

PLEASE EVERYBODY, GET YOUR GUESSES IN! :?

Good luck.

Do we email the guesses or PM them, or what? :?

BTW I know I said 6 points for the pictures but how do you work out the scores if you get some right and some wrong :?: :?

Guessing the men was easy peasy, but I don't have a clue with the women :roll: no-one looks like I expected them to, not even me! :shock: :lol:

You can say that again Popo - only so many of us guys... the exception being little jg & his mate - bit more of a challenge. As for the ladies, I'm starting to break into a sweat... are our guesses being made public??? :shock: that could be embarassing...

It might be interesting to also (after the results are in) send in a brief bio much in line with the guesses (ignoring mine of course) to see how close or far out we were.

... and what happened to DG???

Send your guesses to Jen in a PM Popo.

As for the scoring........... you can only get six points for a correct guess.

When all the guesses have been sent to Jen, she will post the results here.

After that, we start giving the points as stated earlier.

As Robbie said, a brief bio on yourself then, the score for each person.

Once all the scoring has been done................ WE HAVE A WINNER!

Maybe we will end up with a few winners! :roll:

Should we have a tie breaker???????????? :wink:

DG must be busy or, away following his sport again!
It's a pity, we all would have loved to see him. :cry:

One thing I must add for those concerned, there wasn't a single blue rinse
to be seen!!!!!!!!! :wink:

So Robbie, do we still all look like grannies? :wink:

Mmmn... amazing what Jen can so with her digital editing... :D
:wink: <- note that this is not a wink - just me expecting to get hit on thie head with a frying pan should I ever show my face in the British Isles...

Seriously though, and I'm sure I speak for those few brave (and male) souls, we're happy to be surrounded by our beautiful girls.

Grannies... what grannies???

Maybe DG can send us one in belatedly.

Forget that question! I was thinking we got 6 points in total not for each pic! :oops: My brain hurts!!! :roll:

BTW is there a picture of Jan on the site, only I thought we were posting pics of our partners later, and I haven't done a discription of Jan. :?

At least we are all having a good laugh Robbie. :lol:

I must say, it's been great fun! :lol:

Don't worry, the British Isles would welcome you with open arms. 8)

I'm sure when DG reads this he will send his pic. :D

cheers

Hi popo,

YES... there is a picture of Jan on the site :!:

I think you will be able to just edit your descriptions post to add Jan - after all you don't know which one she is - OR DO YOU :roll:

Although neither Jan or I are in the competition proper we will award points for any descriptions of us.

I assume this will be OK with Maureen.

:D That we are.

And I'll keep you to that - my sister lives there & is marrying an Englishman in December so my wife & I & our 2 squids will be heading over there for a couple of weeks.

Wasn't Jan in on this???

I don't think my score for the picture guessing is going to improve my chances of winning this...

Popo, I get plenty of days like that. Sometimes, too many!!!!! :roll:

The competition about partners didn't go down so well, I retracted it somewhere along the line. :cry:

I edited my post and added Jan.

Of course it's okay by me Malc, didn't we extend the comp to give you time to get back? :wink:
I extended after that, to allow another member to participate also. I really was hoping for more people to join in. :cry:

Robbie, travel to Scotland and take the ferry over to N. Ireland.
I will have a pint of Guinness waiting for you. :wink:

oooh... probably a pint more than I can handle. I pass out at even the mention of anything stonger than water, milk or fresh orange juice :wink:

I'd love to visit though I don't think I'll get much further than York where my sis lives.

Better sign off now. It's 12:20 (night, not afternoon) & it's time I got my beauty sleep... not that it seems to make much difference.

Night all
Robbie :D

PS Got my guesses in :shock: . Got yours?

My husband will be really, really gutted that we're not doing partners now :cry: NOT!!

Update on contest.....

I have 9 people's guesses in. Still missing:

Salin, Popo, Bina, SharonM, Majic1, littljg, Cat
Malc and Jan are not guessing at the pictures.

Cat sent in her picture and I got it this time :D . I have added her to the website (so go check it out) and sent her the link to the webpage.

I'll give all those who already answered an extra 6 points for her as well as OldPete, that way at least everyone gets one right besides their own. :wink:

BTW - No one has got them all right or all wrong.

I will post the results and answers once we have all the entries.


Any other questions I missed?

Right, I've sent my guesses to Jen, just got to give everyone scores now. :roll:

I know I won't win cos I didn't give personality discriptions for most of you so I won't get points for that. :cry: Never mind, I didn't want to win anyway :P :lol:

My guesses are in - finally! What a job :shock: - a few I thought I knew who they were - the rest??? I had those pictures all over my computer room last night trying to figure it out, kept changing letters (which never did any good) - so most of my choices don't really reflect what I think that person looks like - which shows you how wrong I must be in my descriptions!!!!

I was going to start making a new level last night, but guessing who's who had to be my top priority, so I never got a chance. Well, my work is done, now I can play tonight!!
