My first experience of New Rookies

Dec 30, 2010 by malik0
It was the hare.
I was the tortoise. 

Perhaps it just takes getting used to,  but the game would probably hold up fairly well if it wasn't so fast.  Also perhaps if spam wasn't the only component of HoH, in some way.  I do like the challenges for PoV concept, however one time I was playing WoF (and was doing well!) but since I was nominated, and didn't even know it, I got cut short and was like eh? 
Perhaps all votes aren't so fast, but I can imagine a good amount are.  There just wasn't time to think things over - that's what bothered me.

I'm also concerned with the spam.  Only two people were really consistently spamming the game (and spam = HoH) - even that was hard to keep up with early on.   It must be even more tiresome in a game where everyone is doing so.  Is it really fun to be doing that all the time?
   
I was told our game was a little faster than usual, and normal ones allow a little more strategising, personally, I barely had the time to make a PM.
Although one game is not much to base on, it does seem like the social aspect is lowered, which seems to be the case with the new castings, also.  For a social site, that seems disappointing, especially with the Duel also being a non-social game by nature.   
What are your experiences and views about new rookies?

P.S Congrats Noel

+15 and thanks for the congrats.  It's really not a social game, you're right.  I'm not sure anything is, other than survivor.  Everything's quick quick quick.  TBH, I prefer this over the old rookies, cause I'd rather deal with a couple hours of spam than a week of it.  But I want old casting back!

I think I've learned to accept that most of the games here aren't social anymore =[
I talk to a lot of people in mail and skype though so that doesn't worry me, and every once in a while I message someone random to get to know them

I can honestly say, that game wasn't a normal one, there is usually A LOT more drama.
