I AM A NAME, NOT A NUMBER!

Does the the TV series "The Prisoner" mean anything to you?

I had a triplet in vv2 with names Obi, Wan and Kenobi. They disliked running. But they were three of my favourites since they were soo cute (especially when playing tag).

I want to show off with my triplets. My favourites are these:



I also like these:



And these are the last borns:



But my favourite villager is in one of my newly started tribe. He is a redhead; dislikes thunder; likes fire, running AND learning .

One of my Chiefs had Unibrows, So I named him Chief Bushy Brows.

lol, I had this villager whom I found particularly ugly and when my friend was playing with my villagers she named him H. Gayforth, M.D. (he was a doctor) then later she told me the H stood for hideous
He was NOT one of my favorite though.

I have been reluctant to post this up until now because I have been ridiculed for it for over a year now by my kids.
I first discovered VV2 and was completely hooked within minutes. My very first tribe had a little girl named Cape who was about 7 years old. She loved running (I hadn't grasped the significance of that yet) and looked like one of my favorite literary characters - Ramona Quimby from the Beverly Cleary books (or Scout from 'To Kill a Mockingbird' if you don't know and love Ramona).
I watched that little darling grow up, have babies and master every task I gave her with ease. I saw what was coming and I slowed down my game speed, just to keep her a bit longer. Then one day, I logged on to find her skeleton laying there and I burst into tears. I literally sobbed for a long time and truly grieved her loss. My kids laughed their heads off at my sappiness and my husband probably considered having me committed.
I don't know - is that so crazy? I mean, if I were watching a movie for two hours and cried at the end when the heroine died, no one would think anything of it, right? Why should it be ridiculous that I would care so much about something I invested DAYS of my life to?
Can I get an "Amen" from someone here and shut those brats of mine up?
I still log in to VV2 on occasion to check on my 106 ants scurrying about, and I always get just a little lump in my throat when I see Cape's totem.
I guess I really AM a big sap!

I'll give you a big...

AMEN!

...on that one. EM

That's awesome. Sounds like Cape had a good 'virtual' life under your care, so don't feel too bad ;). I personally remember Ramona, btw, and loved those books.

People have been sobbing their hearts out for over 60 years when they see Bambi's mother get killed*, and she's just a minor cartoon character. I'm sure that Cape was much more real to you than that.

* I don't mean that they've been sobbing non-stop, just that it's been 66 years now since Bambi was first released.

My favorite villager was a female named Tita she was my first EE & Joat She passed on at the age of 66

THE SECOND SCREENSHOT!!! THE BLACK HAIRED TRIPLETS!! They all look exactly like Jem! I will now call them (If you don't mind) The three Jems.
