Wednesday, 5 August 2009Best Pet: Dusty The Concealer Of Bears
Topic: Best Pets
Posted by ohryankelley at 5:58 PM EDTThis week's Best Pet comes to us from Gamesviller Janet1951 of Indianapolis, IN. Meet the head cat of her household, Dusty! Distinguishing Personality Traits Janet1951 says, "I rescued Dusty from an alley when he was just a kitten. He is now 4-years-old and is the head cat of our household. If his sister Tabby or brother Rocky attempt to get my attention when he's near, he smacks them. It's like if he's telling them, 'No! My mommy!'. Now we have a 4-month-old Lab/Shepherd mix. When Dusty was a kitten, I gave him a little stuffed bear; he's hiding it right now so the puppy won't get it. Dusty's favorite spots are on my computer table beside me, on top of the cabinet, and on the refrigerator as shown in the photo."

Topic: Spam Bag
Posted by ohryankelley at 5:26 PM EDTFrom time to time we get a lot of weird requests and spam mail in the GV Members Inbox. We decided the best way to deal with all the spammers isn't to just "Send To Trash" but to share in the fun of openly mocking them with you, the GV community! Today we received a very lucrative offer from Mrs. Comfort... ______ My Dear,Please let this letter not to bring confusion to you. I know that we have not met either before but hear me from the dept of your mind. It is circumstances that made to send this to you. I will introduce myself first to you. My name is Victoria, I lost my mother a year ago. She was poisioned to death by her associate in business. She formed a company by one Mr. Brown who poisioned her only to take benefit of the multi million venture. I got through the records of my mother account books three weeks ago I discovered that there is a huge sum of money she deposited in a bank, which is $9,800,000. All I need from you is to do all you can to help me to get this money out of the bank. I have been to the bank where this money is deposited immediately, and confirmed the account most deligently. The bank told me that my mother informed them that the money was to be remitted to her company's costumer account abroad, which her costumer will provide to them but since then they have never heard from her nor the costumer. 1. I want you to provide an account where the money will be remitted into as my mother's costumer. 2. Make arrangement for me to leave here as soon as possible 3. How much commission you will take for rendering the assistant? Best wishes, Victoria ______ Hello Victoria, Thanks for the letter. While that certainly does sound like a lot of money that could be spread around all our free game shows we've got some questions of our own. First, with this type of transaction it seems odd that you'd have to reach out anonymously for help, why not hire someone within your country for assistance? Secondly, do you have proof that Mr. Brown was indeed responsible for the death? We'd love to help but this all sounds a little like a game of Clue to us. For all we know it could have been Colonel Mustard in the parlor with the candlestick. Good luck with your escape plan! Best, - Oh! Ryan Kelley Have some funny spam mail?

Topic: Members
Posted by ohryankelley at 3:35 PM EDTLast month Gamesviller Futuresfaith of Columbia, SC won $136 (a DOUBLE JACKPOT because she is a GV Gold Member) in Quick-Draw Poker. We caught up with her to ask a few questions about her big win. What was this mother-of-three's moment of victory like? And what is the meaning behind her Gamesville member name? Find out below... Gamesville: Congratulations! What was it like when you realized you won?First I would like to thank god and my fans... Oh, sorry that's my academy award speech. I had just said goodbye to hubby who was on his lunch break and was multitasking around the house. I was doing three or four things at once--paying the bills, taking ingredients out for dinner, hollering at my teen to answer the phone and playing Quick-Draw Poker. When I had a rhythm going I went to click 'Deal' and saw a 'Congrats!' screen. I screamed, ran into the bathroom looked in the mirror and started doing the running man. What will you spend your winnings on? What do you do for a living? If you were stranded on a desert island what items would you bring with you? What is your most treasured possession and why? What does your Gamesville member name mean? Thanks, Futuresfaith - and congratulations again on your win!

Topic: Weird Wire™
Posted by ohryankelley at 5:08 PM EDTThe chemical Brilliant Blue G turns lab rats blue in tests Researchers have discovered that the food dye that gives blue M&Ms their color can help mend spinal injuries. Tests on groups of lab rats concluded that the compound Brilliant Blue G blocks a chemical that kills healthy spinal cord cells around the damaged area. In the tests, rats treated with BBG were later able to walk, although with a limp, and rats that did not receive the BBG solution never regained the ability to walk. On the downside however the treatment caused the skin to temporarily turn bright blue as shown by the photo above. Learn more about this recent discovery at Boing Boing...

Topic: Best Pets
Posted by ohryankelley at 11:38 AM EDTThis week's Best Pet comes to us from Gamesviller Andra8803 of Mesquite, TX. Meet her sneaky pal, Socks! Distinguishing Personality Traits Andra8803 says, "The best word to describe Socks is 'ninja' because he is only seen when he wants to be seen; I was lucky to catch him off guard long enough to get a photo of him. Socks is 14-years-old and is still the most nimble cat around. He can jump onto our six foot tall bookcase with ease, but as you can see he prefers the toilet (as both a chair and water bowl, but not a litter box). He is an indoor cat, but will sometimes slip out the backdoor and immediately jump over the fence and walk into the front door, just to show you he can. He acts too cool for people when the whole family is together, but if he finds you alone in a room he will walk over to you and lay down for a good snuggle."

We decided the best way to deal with all the spammers isn't to just "Send To Trash" but to share in the fun of openly mocking them with you, the GV community! Today we received a very lucrative offer from Mrs. Comfort... ______ Good day dear,This message might meet you in utmost surprise however,it's just my urgent need for a foreign partner that made me to contact you for this transaction. I am a banker by profession from Accra Republic of Ghana in west Africa and currently holding the post of auditing general, I discover this deposit in our auditing course.I have the opportunity of transferring the left over funds $36.700.000.00 Million United State Dollars belonging to the deceased client who died in the charter plane which crashed on mount Kenyan in the Kenyan city of sumburu on 21st July,2003 to any foreign account. Hence,i am inviting you for a business deal where this funds $22.700.000.00 United State Dollars can be shared between us in the ratio 60/40 if you agree to my business proposal. Eagerly waiting for your urgent response please. - Mrs Comfort ______ Hello Mrs Comfort, Thanks for the note and for thinking of us regarding your lucrative situation. While I'm sure you're aware that we could put this money to good use here at Gamesville your eagerness and grammatical prowess (or lack thereof) gives us pause. Considering how you acquired the money, in a fashion that includes a charter plane crash, we're a little cautious with how this could play out in the media. I can see the headlines now, "Gaming Site Does Dirty Deal With Shady Lady" or "Gamesville Caught In Tailspin Of Controversy". I just think this deal might just be one we take a pass on. Best, - Oh!
