Game of the Hot Potato - Results!

Welcome to the return of the forum-based hot potato game! Here's how it works:

- I start off passing the potato to someone.
- The person then passes the potato to someone other than the person who gave it to them.
- You must pass the potato within 2 minutes or it gets dropped! If it gets dropped then I'll pass the potato on.
- Pass the potato until I say "STOP!" at a predetermined random time.
- Whoever's holding the potato when the game ends is the winner! :D

'Two minutes' is calculated as two full minutes from the time it was passed to you, rounded up. So if you were passed the mimic at 5:15, it would be considered dropped with a timestamp of 5:18 or later.

To pass the potato to someone else, make a post with your name and the person you're passing it to in bold. For example:

Janalee to Sushidragon

The game starts at 5:00pm PDT, and ends after five back-to-back rounds. The prizes will remain hidden until the end of each round, but will range from items, to pets, to a Sam! In addition, everyone who participates in the game, be it by passing the potato or just coming in to chat, will be put into a random draw for a lovely Firebird!
So come, have fun, and see you on Friday! :D

Alas, I will be out for a special birthday dinner right at 5 on Friday, so no potato passing for me~ Best of luck to everyone, though! I look forward to seeing all the prizes and their winners! :3

So wait, will there be a list of people who'll be here, so we know who to pass to orrr is it random names?

No, there won't be any lists this time- everyone is free to come whenever they can! If you want to make sure the person you're passing to is there, you'll have to look at the 'Who is online' box on the front page. :D Since the potato drops automatically after two minutes though, you could really pass it to anyone you wish!

And sorry to hear you won't be around Blue! Though, a special birthday dinner sounds like a pretty fantastic reason to miss it. *grins*

*shoos her curious sams away from the potato* No, you can't eat that! Go bother sams that aren't in songs yet, flirt or whatever!

I have salt if anyone wants some... (I really do, it's great with my pot pie.)

We should slice it into french fries and have multiple potatoes flying around at once!

And now my mouth is on fire in a different way than if I'd bitten into the potato... Unfiltered ginger ale is tasty...but it's got some bite to it! Especially when you're drinking the part that's mostly ginger puree...

Mmmm, ginger ale bubbles are so awesome and SHARP. I just have snap pea flavor lingering on the tongue.
