The Mole 2

[chippers21]

Okay so who do you all think the Mole is? This is a pretty tough game to follow. One second you think "that was fishy, maybe ... is the mole", and then something else happens and you change your mind.
If you e-mail me with your guess on this one I will keep a very informal record and see who guesses the right person from the earliest date. It might be fun if we get a few people trying to guess. My guess is a male. Won't say anything else at this point.
As to a prize, since this is an informal, spur of the moment idea, I do not think there will be one, but I will post all over the place if you guess the Mole first (earliest) You can only change your guess when your guess is executed.

Let's try to guess the ultimate winner too. As above, your guess is your guess until he/she is executed and then you may pick a new one.
I will keep track of who picked who and when. Pick #1 who you think the Mole is/ and #2 who you think will win the money (the last person left besides the Mole)

Cool idea, Chippers. I will think about it and email you!

I know who gets executed next since I watched the show the first time it was on. (They showed 3 episodes before it was cut off so there is one more episode that they are going to show before the unseen episodes.)

Hmmm....tough to say who is the Mole. Hmmm.....

[chippers21]

I did a little research and this is what I found:
Al/ 33/ Married/ 2 kids/ Distribution Manager
Bill/ 58/ Married/ 3 kids/ Retired Rear Admiral
Bribs/23/ Single/ Ski Instructor
Darwin/ 30/ Married but no kids/ Attorney
Dorothy/ 24/ Single/ Musician
Elavia/ 26/ Single/ sales
Heather/ 25/ Single/ Account Supervisor for PR Co.
Katie/ 25/ Single/ Teacher
Lisa/ 30/ Single/ Asst US Attorney and Hot Dog Vendor
Myra/46 Single / Airline Pilot
Patrick/51/ Married/ 2 kids/ City Manager
Rob/ 22/ Single/ Videographer

Almost everyone speaks Spanish. Darwin speaks French. Bill speaks German and Japanese. Dorothy speaks Mandarin.

Next week they are forced to exchange journals.

Some of what happened during episodes 1 and 2:

Al hesitated before deciding to wear the lingerie, wasting the players' time once again.

Bill refused to wear the diaper, costing the team extra money for the pot.

Bribs suggested going to the bar, arousing the group's suspicions that he wanted to miss the train.

Darwin cost the team $2,000 by taking his bunny ears off before they reached the hotel.

Dorothy, a known light-eater, got a chance at an exemption by eating the last piece of cake, her second piece of the night.

Elavia convinced Bill and Dorothy that the diapers were see-through without actually showing them how they fit.

Heather complained about not being able to participate in High Card, arousing suspicions that she was supposed to be in the game for a reason.

Katie quickly spread the rumor of Bribs and Ali's fake exemption, causing discord among the players.

Lisa betrayed Darwin, her coalition partner, by luring him to her room during the Blueberry Game.

Myra opened the door for Dorothy to get an exemption by passing up her piece of cake.

Patrick slept peacefully in the train while others fought about Bribs and Ali's fake exemption. Why didn't he care?

Rob went big in the High Card game and bet all the team's gambling money on one losing hand.

Don't forget: if you want to play along with us I need your picks for the Mole and the ultimate winner by midnight tomorrow if the Mole is on Tuesday night.....

[chippers21]

We have four 'contestants' for this no-prize game at this time: me, ShainaT, hattielee, and mkrafala. I will post all our picks just before the show if possible. Anyone else want to try to guess?

[Ttulipss]

Count me in......you've got mail!

[chippers21]

Okay here are the contestants I have so far, and their picks. This is going to be very informal. E-mail me (flag the e-mail the Mole) with any questions or corrections.

ShainaT Mole-Myra Winner of the loot- Al 6/4/02
hattielee Mole- Katie Winner of the loot- Al 6/4/02
rafala Mole-Lisa Winner of the loot- Bill 6/4/02
Ttulipss Mole-Elavia Winner of the loot-Bribs 6/4/02
chippers Mole-Darwin Winner of the loot- Heather 6/4/02

If you have either of your choices executed tonight, just pick new ones and e-mail me before the next show.

I started to edit the post above and then decided it would be better to do a new post. Now that Lisa and Patrick are gone it appears we are all safe with our picks except rafala, who picked Lisa as the mole, so she will need to make a new choice for next week. I almost went with Patrick for the Mole/ sure glad I did not.

This is a tough game. Anyone have a clue who the Mole really is? I chose Darwin because I think he is too cool in most situations and artificially upset at others.


So here is where we stand for next week:
ShainaT Mole-Myra Winner of the loot- Al 6/4/02
hattielee Mole- Katie Winner of the loot- Al 6/4/02
rafala Mole-_Al____ 6/11/02 Winner of the loot- Bill 6/4/02
Ttulipss Mole-Elavia Winner of the loot-Bribs 6/4/02
chippers Mole-Darwin Winner of the loot- Heather 6/4/02

I was really impressed with how smart Al played the game, and with how intelligent Dorothy appears to be. What do you guys think?

[hattielee]

Boy good thing I didn't have to do those brain teasers!! LOL

It was impressive how Dorothy got those answers in the last few seconds. Did make her look suspicious though.

Does anyone think they have seen any of the clues they keep telling us to look for?

I haven't seen anything I can figure out is a clue to the Mole's identity.

[chippers21]

I guess you have to start making assumptions somehow about these folks. Dorothy seems pretty smart to me, and could have gotten those word puzzles quickly because that is the way it works for me sometimes, you input the problem into your brain, and the answer may just jump out at you at an unexpected time. I do that with scrambled 10 letter words in the puzzle book I subscribe to. On the other hand it does remain suspicious that she got those two puzzles at the last second. And she was willing to lure people into her room and she ate the last piece of cake, even tho she has a small appetite.
On the other hand I am more inclined to think the Mole is someone who is still flying under the radar, like Myra, Bill, or Heather or Rob or Darwin (my pick)
Al is just to out there doing stuff. Katie and Elavia are always on the edge. And I don't think Bribs is smart/mature enough to be the Mole.
As for the hidden clues to the Moles identity, I have never been able to solve Muder She Wrote mysteries so I am not surprised that I have no clue what they might be so far.

[rafala]

now you see why i wasnt a big point winner in survivor or amazing race my mole gets eliminated the 4th game

missed the first part of the 3rd show, and portions of the 2 shows last week so i dont have a great feeling for any them.

they seem to go to al alot to hear what he has to say about people.

katie seems real whiney but she could be a good actress???

dorothy seems real smart, too smart???

i like bill a lot, i hope he does make it to the end and win the money.

myra is quiet and is a possiblity for the mole candidate??

the others i dont have a good feel for so cant comment on them. will have to do some research and get my new vote out there.

[ShainaT]

I don't think that Dorothy is the mole. Otherwise she would have messed up one of the questions so they wouldn't have won the money or had anybody get immunity.

Katie is becoming my least favorite player. Anyone that splits 3's when playing blackjack isn't too bright or doesn't know what they are doing. Also, why does she think nobody else should get exemptions but her? I don't think she is the mole though. I don't think she could pull it off.

[Ttulipss]

Okay, I tend to think back to the first Mole and that it was a woman......would they have the Mole be a woman two series in a row??

If you watched the first one, on the last show they mentioned how there were clues in the opening. It was interesting to see, but I never would have figured it out. Has anyone been watching the opening closely to see if they think they have any clues? It's almost like you'd need the contestants' biographies and tape the opener and watch it over and over and over to pick up on anything.

Last year I knew that the Mole was Katherine by the 4th or 5th episode. This year, I really have no idea so far. The only possible clue I've seen leads me to think that the Mole could be Bill. Maybe. In one of the episodes, the camera panned to a pisces zodiac symbol that was part of the carpet/flooring. I looked on the official Mole 2 website, and Bill is the only pisces.

One of the best discussion sites for reality shows is [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] When Big Brother is on, they have posters who watch the live feeds and post what's going on 24/7. I just looked and there is a spoiler thread on their Mole boards that brings up obscure clues that only someone with a good VCR and way too much free time could find. Click on "topics" near the upper left corner to find the boards.

Also, [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] has detailed recaps of all kinds of shows, including The Mole. In the upper right hand corner there is a "Pick a show here" menu. For some reason I missed most of the second episode but know exactly what happened because of their 11 page recap.

Reality TV addict? Me? Yup.

[chippers21]

It is not too late to enter our little no-prize contest. Just e-mail me your picks for the Mole and the ultimate winner. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]
Rafala needs to send me a new pick for the mole. Everyone else who entered last week is set for this week. New contestants will have the date 6/11/02 on their picks. (If you choose someone who has already been picked as mole or winner you will lose because someone else has an earlier date for their entry)

I am going to study hard this week to try and see any "clues" as to the Moles identity. Good luck all! Liz
