Got a call from Victoria at Buzztime while I was at the bar last evening.
She told me I was Buzztime's Player of the Day for Monday.
Does anyone know anything about this silliness?
Is this the Random Acts of Buzztime thingie from the ad screen?
I also wonder if I was the first BT POD to win the premium game that same day. If so, I hope she calls again next week. :mrgreen:

Did you have Caller ID confirming that the call was from Buzztime, Carlsbad?

See, Buzztime is using email exclusively to notify winners of "Random Acts of Buzztime," I've not heard of this "Player of the Day" thing, I can't find your name or handle at the Buzztime page or the Buzztime Facebook page, and the best player in the nation might attract a spoof or two.

Just sayin'.

Even if it is a prank, I didn't get ANY call from a woman named Victoria today... :(

Ooh! I love a good spoofing.
This one was pretty boring, though.
All she did was congratulate me and talk about how it was on BT's FB and Twitter sites yesterday. I don't play on those, so I couldn't confirm it.
I can't imagine somebody spoofing someone this lamely.
Well, maybe except for Bran...

Awesome. Praising another stat manipulator who never plays a premium game. He's actually quit games at trivia get-togethers in order to protect his average.

It's sad BT dumped what works in the old fourm to give "Attaboys" on social media instead.

Now, now...
There's nothing wrong with not playing premium games.
Since STC got killed, none of them are particularly worth
getting worked up about from where I'm sitting.
If I didn't need an excuse to keep performing my habitual Monday night routine, I wouldn't even be making the effort on SIQ.
Of course, the fact that I'm living in one of the worst premium game team trivia cities in the free world might be coloring my judgment a smidge.

Why didn't Victoria just call STEVE and have him kick you in the leg?

Anyway, Congrats, you non-drinking bat rastard!

You're welcome to move South. I haven't even multiboxed for eight months as I don't want to scare away anyone who might sign on, much less play team....

That and the fact the premium games get you irked that you don't want to bother with them anymore (at least as far as Six is concerned). ;)
