Hey Makosi! Thanks for being a viewer again.  Hopefully there will be a few more people in here to keep you company by the time the game starts. |

I'm so glad this series is back. I thought it died and that is the last thing I wanted. I cannot wait to watch because, even though I've retired from ORGs, I am still interested to see how things will play out.
HOPEFULLY the applicants are strong this season because Pearl had INSANE houseguests and I just prefer watching crazy gamers.

I thought it died too, honestly. But then this summer I randomly felt the urge to revive it and now I'm really excited to get it back up and running. And I think it kind of works out because Storm was in 2010, Curve was in 2011 and Pearl was in 2012. So even though it wasn't intentional I guess we're following the 1-per-year pattern.
I haven't been involved in ORGs at all since Pearl ended so I'm hoping to see a lot of applicants I've never even heard of before, which is the case so far. As always some seem strong and others, not so much. I'll probably post them all here once we get closer to the start date.

I am so happy I clicked on that link because I didn't recognize that it was this series, and I'm not playing any ORGs anymore. I'm in an all-Stars now, and once that's done I'm done. (Although I amde a favorite for another game that'll eb in god knows how long.) (And of course I'd come back for this.)
But I have no clue what possessed me to click the link, but I saw the logo and I'm like OH MY GOD IT'S BACK!!!!
And I'm the very first quote in the very first episode! <3
I'm soooo happy you're hosting again!

I'm glad you found us! I know it's harder to identify this series since the name changes every season. And yeah, let me know what you think of the Pearl eps if you decide to look through them. I'm sorry they're so late!
Would you like me to bring over your Pearl avatar, btw?

Actually if you can find a new picture of him that would be sweet: keep things fresh, but if not then I'll take the old one.
And I've read the first few and I do have one concern:
How DARE there be no mention of the Sexy Back alliance! It would have been hysterical for me to be like "I AM RUNNING SHIT!" and then Dino/Ragan to be like "Yeah, Brian made a gay guy alliance and we're kinda stuck with it. :/"

Is it okay if I help advertise?

I'll find you a new one There's so many random little alliances each season that when I do the eps I kind of have to cut out the ones that don't end up being relevant for simplicity's sake. Otherwise I just feel like it's way too confusing to try to make a coherent storyline. And yeah, I'll take any help I can get! And if any of you are in contact with any other past players, feel free to invite them to be viewers as well. |

I'd invite some to come here but I am in no contact with anyone from this series and forget who most are, to be honest.

How many apps do ya'al have so far? When do you think you'll start?

We have 16 apps right now. Which isn't great compared to past seasons but the vast majority are decent and I expect a couple more to come in so it's okay. The dates are already set. Apps close July 1, Estelle & I will choose the cast July 2, checkins will be July 3-5 with the game beginning on the July 5. We didn't want to start until after the 4th of July because having a day off so early in the game would be annoying.

Hopefully more will come along.
