subtle squidsheet there, Wormie.
I’ve been in a relationship that lasted longer than three months.
At least he didn’t black us out … or delete us from existence entirely! sob
Well, we’re just wild ‘n’ crazy gals, ITD … we’ve done it all.
I’ve been in two that lasted longer than three months. My (former) marriage, and my current relationship.
You’re right-- we are! We should wear our elimination with pride!
or something like that.
Whatever floats your boat gals… whatever floats your boat 
I’ve been in several relationships that lasted longer than three months.
I’ve never been in a relationship that lasted longer than three months. Though not for lack of trying.
And since Worm was wondering, I’m exactly 32 years old.
I’ve been married to the same wonderful woman for two months shy of 38 years. Does “marriage” count as a relationship?
Hmmm. I protest this scorekeeping, as inherently unfair… not to say silly. Since I go in 10th place, seems to me that I don’t need to (get to) make a third round statement at all, regardless of earlier outcome.
Also, since people drop out in mid-round 2, they have no points left to give those whose turn is later in the round. That is, the people who went first were able to get squids from the late lamented Ivory and Ellen, but since I’m last, I had no such points from them second round.
Live and learn. Next time this game is offered, if I don’t have an early position, I ain’t playing. I’m not happy with games where the person who makes the first play, wins. Borrrrrrring.
A more fair and reasonable scoring system would be to (1) allow people to go negative, (2) give positive points for round 3, and (3) just track total points at end of game rather than having people drop out.
Protest duly noted, I agree with it, and it should be given due consideration for next time. It’s the same way it was played last time and I just didn’t think that much about changing the rules with regards to that.
[bold]Chronos[/bold]. No offence meant with my question, just wondering.
Oh, none taken. I’ve just led a very sheltered life in some ways.
Ok, let’s keep going. Still with the original rules.
Next game, let’s use **CK’s **suggestions as it makes things a lot fairer!
But now onto Mahaloth:
Never have I ever believed in Santa, even as a small child.
And I must say the same. Icelandic christmas customs didn’t really include a Saint Nick wearing red. So I just got my gifts from the ordinary places
It looks like I’m the third to fall after the last question.
Being Jewish, no, I never believed in Santa… nor ever had any parent try to tell me otherwise.
I wish I could answer that one- Also Jewish, no Santa. In fact, i used to tell teh mall Santas that I didn’t believe in them.
**I’ve somehow managed to be in a couple relationships that lasted more than 3 months
I fervently believed in Santa for a while**
Is there a link to the last time the game was played that might explain what all these numbers mean in the squidsheet? I can’t figure the logic or the pattern. Are high scores better than low scores? How does the number of squids correspond to the numbers in each box, and the different colors? Am I the only girl left? Are you targeting the girls for elimination? Why are people getting eliminated?
**
Yes, I believed in Santa when I was a little kid. ** Don’t recall exactly when I stopped believing.
As a kid, I had solid empirical proof of the existence of the Tooth Fairy, and I figured if she existed, Santa was a lot more plausible than her anyway.
Go free, my little squiddies! Swim out to deep waters, and be happy!
I never believed in Santa. My mother was a horrible liar.
