Congratulations! The thing I'm concerned about is who picks up phone calls from unknown numbers? I mean you obv, but not me. So uhhh anyone know if they leave voicemail? Or email?

i wasn't at my phone when they called on wednesday. i switched on my phone about 30min after they did, saw the missed call and vm from culver city, and that gave me some hope. i listened, and lo and behold they said they wanted to talk to me--nothing about making it or whatever. i called immediately, left a message for them saying 'hey, returning your call, can talk whenever', and they called back around 1p yesterday

niceee. I definitely always answer voicemail, just don't pick up randos. I was on another game show, and when they called I picked up on the first ring, but that was a more innocent time when you got like 1 spam call per week and not 5 per day

Raskolnikov38 posted:from my audition they said they will basically pull a liam neeson from taken on you if you get selected from the pool Yeah, when I didn't pick up my phone call (I actually was away from my phone) they emailed me basically straight away telling me to call them back. Congratulations, Abel! You're probably going to be on either a week or two after me, then, assuming you're doing either the October 9/10 shooting, or the week after, since we were all told that after our shoot October 9th is the next filming date.

They do an online test about once a year, but for the last few years it's had a ton of technical issues, so redoing it has messed with the schedule. I think it used to be in the winter, but this year's was March.

There've been a lot of technical difficulties and all that.

Also, the audition cycle is a bit off from the testing cycle. I auditioned in March in DC, right before this year's online test, based on the results of last year's online test.

Something has been bugging me since the start of the new season, why is September 21, 2001 showing up on the opening? Alex shaved his mustache that episode Truly the worst thing to happen that month.

Anyone else watch the team draft live? I think Team Julia will be tough to beat: her, Ben Ingram and Seth Wilson is a pretty solid combination. Though Colby looks pretty good too with Pam and Alan, and can't count out Brad with Dave Madden and Larissa Kelly. Austin got Roger Craig and Leonard Cooper too, so that might go far. For posterity, Ken got Matt Jackson and Monica Thieu; and Buzzy picked Alex Jacob first and then got Jennifer Giles last. Can't wait until February when these episodes air!

I think team Buzzy/Alex/Jennifer is going to be the winner.

"A big gaming story of 2018 is "Fortnite:" this genre of game where the winner is last shooter or last team standing" the response they wanted was "battle royale" but it seems weird to call that a genre I wonder if the judges would have conferred and accepted "shooter" if someone had said that snack eater fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Sep 28, 2018 |

"Shooter" doesn't imply the last person standing wins. Battle Royale is the accepted name for that genre now. It's kind of a weird question because Fortnite is more than just that one mode, but the second part of the question is enough to remove the ambiguity.
