Can this be joined at any time, or was it necessary to be there from the beginning?

Welcome to the forums! You need to join up before the game actually starts... but there'll be another game this coming summer. And there are a variety of quick games in the "Games" forum.

[Crookshanks]

Alright, thanks!

[baumer]

Alright, thanks!

 

But you can play the weekly questions.  They are fun and they will be in the "baumer's summer game" forum.  Try them, they are fun.

[Goffe]

I really tempted to go for all five questions in the SOTM2

I'm still tempted to try as I am so far back it really doesn't matter if I lose 20K at this point.

That's what I did during the whole of BSG as I was basically last of the people that were playing each week.

 

I have idea of the correct tactics for my current position of 3rd, but if I remember correctly from BSG, isn't the preferred tactic of fronts runners to just be a pussy in every SOTM and abstain from anything they can get away with right? 

[Plain Old Tele]

Aside from a few abstains, I think I'm the only one to get SOTM #2 (first question) right.

You think you're so fucking cool, don't you?  

[laguy03]

[grey ghost]

I've never been so grateful to score zero points.

[Olive]

Yeah, 0 points for me too.

[Plain Old Tele]

I think I'm at 6,000 for SOTM #2 so far.

[baumer]

-20,000 for me.

[Plain Old Tele]

It's gonna be neck-and-neck between me and bcf26 for nailing CF's OW. (I think he wins unless it's able to hold up this over-performing).
