Congrats on the NOBS winners  :clap1:

You know, at first glance, this sounds like a 'fair' hunt.  But I'll tell ya.  It seems like people know WHEN the host is going to show up...and WHAT they are going to say ahead of time.  I've read that some of these people are all linked up on Skype.  Probably on IM, too.  I had a round I lost that a host said something...and a person who had followed a bunch of people into the room just before the host showed up won almost immediately!  NOBODY CAN TYPE THAT FAST!  Flame is a wicked-fast typer.  I wasn't even close.  This is ridiculous.  Still looking for the 'fun'...

Flame, report it.  This is ridiculous.  I agree 1000% with you on what you said above ^^.  I have to go and read some more now, lol

I personally have almost given up on Host Hunts.  I clearly cannot compete with these kids cheating.  Nor do I have the patience to sit, and watch it happen.  They are obviously finding loopholes, and using it to their advantage.  There is no fun in that for the remainder of us.

What they are doing is teaming up and helping each other win repeatedly.  Not against any rules...because there really are no VFK rules when it comes down to it.  If I report it, VFK will just blow it off.  An unfair advantage that takes away wins from people who play for themselves, only.   :uhuh2:

I'm sure that happened in many rooms.  It sounds like these people travel in groups to the next 'spot' where the host will be.  Nice, huh?  Unfair advantage.

If that's the case, then perhaps Host should change the word each and every time they go to a new room.  At least the typing part would be more fair then.

It should be changed each and every time or else keep it regular Host Hunt where we all say the same.

Yes; except if we all say the same thing each time that opens it up again to those using the "auto thingys' to cheat

It also seems apparent that some people have figured out the hosts 'pattern'.  This needs fixed.  The host should be RANDOMLY visiting rooms.  Ned Kellys.  Then the Space Shop.  Not Central Square, then Merlin's square, then Merlin's, then the Blacksmiths.  Spread it out as much as possible!  Sheesh...do I have to think of everything?  :hmm:
