A Mole, A Winner and a Porn Site Administrator

I have promised to write sooner but I have been TERRIBLY busy. I will try to write as much as I can in the coming days, but definitely I'll finish writing what I intend to write. There's a lot of stuff that I think people would want to know about.

First off, I'm Ross D the guy who was playing as Ginger for the sixth season of Online Mole Challenge. Currently, I live in the Philippines but I am slated to move to California early next year (my immigration papers have been approved). I am currently finishing my Master's Degree in Computer Science and am planning to find a career in games or teaching.

I was invited by one of the previous players Yves/David whom I met playing Spies 3: The Collective (hosted by another former OMC player, Sam). I watched the fifth season of the Mole and followed it heavily by donloading from torrents and I really enjoyed the show (although I knew pretty much who the mole was) and since I wasn't part of any game at that point, maybe I'd give it a try. I applied and everything else is history.

Now that introductions are over, I'd like to first congratulate Jill the winner. You have taken a huge pot home and I think you deserve it. You were never boring but at the same time you never compromised you game, keeping most people guessing whether you were the mole or not. As a player, you have made it a very worthwhile and fine experience for your competitors. You deserve every penny of it.

Next, to the mole I never caught -- Elise. You have mastered the art of manipulating people and I appreciate the fact that you really made it challenging for me and several other players. You were also entertaining to watch and compete the entire game, as you rarely kept your conversations or confessionals dull. I think you went in and you achieved what you tried to achieve -- to be both formidable and pleasant to each of your victims.

As for the runner-up Blaise, you did a great job too. You were my second pick as the mole. I still congratulate you for a job well done.

And finally to the host, Travis: congratulations for a very well organized and successful game. Few online reality games make it to their final episodes with most of their cast intact and attending the reunion, and for that you should be proud of yourself. It may have not gone as perfectly as you wanted to be but I believe your tenacity, discipline, judgement and creativity has helped create this wonderful game to be appreciated by many players. I'm sure you have learned many lessons from this pet-project of yours and I hope you remember that you will continue to get better. Again, my thanks for hosting this game and congratulations!
