I just want to bring up something that really hurt my feelings this spook. It may not seem like a big deal to some of you, but it bothered me, and still bothers me today. If I can't get it out of my mind, then it was more hurtful then I'd like.

During chat when mistress came in to give stuff away, I got a Santa Yoda. When I thanked her, her response was "uh huh" and that was in private chat.

Then I know that BBBG won a santa yoda and explained to her that he already pre-ordered it. She didn't say anything to him but gave him a prize worth more than double in response.
Later, I won a Spike Tiki. In private chat I explained that I already have it. Her response to me was "you being difficult?"

That really stung! I cannot help it that I go directly to sideshow and pay full asking price for their stuff. If they would prefer, I could just wait, and try to win it. But I'm sure they like my money more.

I just feel that it could have been handled differently. I know many of you will back her, or sideshow, etc. And that's fine. Doesn't change that my feelings were hurt. I am lucky to have won, as many people win big and great prizes over the years, not just me. But just because I did win, doesn't mean I should be made to feel bad.

:slap

You won two prizes. Both extremely nice. There is a fat list of people who worked their ***** off a hell of a lot harder, that didn't win anything. At best, I would've accepted the Spike and given him to somebody on that list. At worst, kept him to display two. He was free.

Can't argue with that.

I don't know if they participated more....I swear BG was on there almost 24/7.

I see you edited your post. I will have to disagree with you here...BG worked hard and entered everything. Not saying others didn't too and are equally worthy of winning prizes....but she was very active this Spook.
 
BG, she could have been saying it in jest or maybe she was serious. In chat it's often hard to tell ones intentions, and often what a person says is misconstrued. But, I can see why that comment would sting. I just always try to remember that there is a lot going on in chat and can only imagine what the SSC people are dealing with in PM's and such. It's probably pretty hectic and stressful.

I was there. I know. I'm not saying she didn't work her little tush off, she did, but there were those who worked just that much harder. :wave

Honestly though, I think we need to look at just how much ____ Chicky has to tolerate during spook. Everything from naggy whining from idiots who can't follow instructions but still expect a prize to blatant sexual harassment by 30-something maternal basement dwellers. Everything said by Sideshow VIPs during Spook should be taken with a grain of salt. Sure we might be frustrated we didn't win, or got a smart remark to a question, but we're dealing with a handful of overworked people. They're dealing with THOUSANDS of people, most of which, can't even spell, let alone understand the basic concept of manners. I doubt most of us would be as kind in their shoes as they are. :lol

If you didn't notice Nam, I wasn't complaining about the prizes. I could care less about them. I was talking about the way I felt.

Which was a direct result of a prize you won. So, yeah, you kinda are. :lol

Everybody's entitled to blow off some steam. Sometimes they vent on the wrong people (99% of people have done this. The other 1% are in comas). I think this is a mountain out of a mole hill thing though, with you taking something out of contest and personal, that was intended to be just a fun, sassy remark.

I can agree that it can be tough, crazy, etc. I'm not saying it isn't. I'm pointing out that 2x I felt bad. Whether it was intentional or not, I don't know. I can't help that I'm sensitive.
