Hells bells. Apparently it isn't enough for whomever at NTN Buzztime selects the generally mediocre Player of the Week to generally pick other than well established, accomplished players. The most recent selectee had as part of his blurb...

"...he's been playing for over 2 years and scores perfect countdown games regularly."

Bull-fucking shit, according to his most recent 6 months play. http://www.buzztime.com/profile?pid=14594258&tn=trivia Image

I guess over two years is quite an accomplishment in the world of Buzztime.

His total number of games is less than a LILJOL weekend.

Awesome BT devotee! 5300 P+ points and no action in the last 6 months. The perfect demographic.

"Lunchtime Trivia is her favorite game, which she has scored perfectly on in the past".

Let us see shall we.

https://www.buzztime.com/profile?pid=15 ... tp=gh&d=88

One perfect game in 6 months. While the statement is technically true, one may read it that she should have a lot more perfect Lunchtime Trivia scores.

"Stacy has also scored perfectly on Countdown".

Let us see shall we.

https://www.buzztime.com/profile?pid=15 ... tp=gh&d=87

She may have had a perfect Countdown long ago, but she has none in the past 6 months.

Another bad example of Player Of The Week. Can't we get a lifelong player whose perfect scores and Players Plus point total actually be true.

Has anyone on this site sent in a picture to be POW?

Only person I know was MITOM, who was at 'palooza last year and was POW months back.

I've never tried to be POW.

Well, hell. Seems that someone at NTN Buzztime is still checking things here, given the somewhat disingenuous qualifying phraseology of this weeks POTW. :roll:

That said, the descriptions of these past two (if not more) POTWs could be seen as false advertising. Image

It's not like that's enough incentive for me to go on Ffacebook.

I had a friend send one in of my toddler really playing (I will probably never win any of the random Bullshit from Buzztime, me being so critical of them and all.) He hit the number I told him, so he was actually playing. He played pretty well, even sandbagged us on one.

I keep reading this topic and think you folks are flaming on the Bergdahl story. Can we please start referring to it as POtW?

Well, hell. IMO that other story is better discussed elsewhere than here.

Assuming that my increasingly decrepit, fragile lil mind can remember to do so, the next time I feel like venting on those ohsocrazysexycool mediocre playing ilk, I'll call them POTW instead. No disrespect was meant to POWs.

The newest POtW has a whopping 33,600 lifetime points!

It almost seems a requirement for POTW is that one must have under 200K players plus points.

I'm guessing that POTW is randomly chosen.

As for the better-looking ones, has anyone noticed that NTN Buzztime prefers young (20's and early-30's) models/actors/actresses to appear in their ads? Most of them have probably never even heard of NTN before, let alone played a game on the playmaker. I'm guess their looks (and not P+ points or how long they've played) is a reason why they are chosen.

Well, hell. Yet another mediocre player (DRSIBE, Countdown average <10k, Lunchtime average <5k). :lol:

I know Mike (DRSIBE) since i started playing NTN.....I know his point total and averages don't refect the 20+ years of playing, but he is an excellent player and considered the third legit player to be named to POW.

Well, hell. Looks like Buzztime Southern California is getting into this act on their FB page. :roll: What looks way more than a lil strange is that they identify the site of those POtWs, but don't identify the players. :lol:

Looks like now you can enter into the Player of the Week and post a picture of someone else like what SUE/bbw1671 did. Hell, maybe I should enter and post a picture of the latest Playmate of the Month. Think I'd win?

And he has scored over 10,000 on Countdown. Wow!
