It's Deja Vu All Over Again

Well the cast has finally been revealed. There are some old and new faces in the mix. Some of them have shown that they're serious about playing the game, others not so much. Will the first execution be everyone's favorite "inactive player" elimination? Do bears **** in the woods?

In other news, the results of this first episode do not bode very well for the rest of the game. Maybe when the inactives are all given the boot the team will finally start to make some cash monies.

It is OMC tradition to kick off the game with a live trivia challenge (except in OMC 4 when the entire game was non-live). It is also OMC tradition for not all of the agents to show up to this challenge. Congratulations to Mike for getting 11 answers and earning that exemption. But did he only now those answers because... HE'S THE MOLE??? Who knows? (A: Ryan and the mole.)

The blog-o-sphere challenge was a particularly sad affair. Al Gore invented the Internet as we know it today a long time ago (right before he invented global warming) - get with the times, people!

The truth & lies challenge was interesting in that only one player (Padraig) chose to lie. It's adorable that you're all so truthful.

In other news, here's how I judged this week's MP challenge

1. http://omc5padraig.blogspot.com/ - Oh Padraig, how I've missed you. Thanks for putting in the extra effort by making that "welcome agents" graphic.

2. http://moleexterminator.blogspot.com/ - The title of this blog puts it up top.

3. http://omc5ryan.blogspot.com/ - I enjoy the classy look of this blog.

4. http://omc5keith.blogspot.com/ - Nice and readable with a big picture.

5. http://omcaaron.blogspot.com/ - Interesting color scheme, though the purple text against a black background is a little hard to read.

6. http://elitebeatfred.blogspot.com/ - I admire the initiative to create your own template, though the lack
of content otherwise concerns me.

7. http://amithemole.blogspot.com/ - Nice and colorful, but dark green text against a black background is also hard to read.

8. http://www.omc5brent.blogspot.com/ - Pretty damn plain.

9. http://omc5andy.blogspot.com/ - Wow. Way to use Blogger's template and do absolutely nothing else.

10. Heidi... WTF, what's goin' on here...
