Same here, live4romance. I've been to two FORTcons (2004 and 2005) and have met several FORTers whom I now consider dear friends - HOLLA rosseskid! . What I think is so cool is that FORT was represented by cafegirl and BlondieGal who were basically the two original sleuthers here at FORT, with jelle coming on board a bit later.

And I think one of the main reasons for their success at "sleuthing" is because they've earned a reputation - across the boards - as being trustworthy and discreet (when need be) with whatever 'sleuthing' information they've obtained.

So yeah, I just wanted to point that out because, honestly, I don't think FORT could've been represented by anyone better.

Jason- You are just too great! so happy to hear you showed them a great time ( not that I'd expect anything less from you guys!!) And so happy to hear that y'all had a wonderful time in Austin. It is a wonderful city and the guys are the best.

Oh and jason, might be out in Austin this weekend, if so I'm coming to say hello

Between all of you who met Brad. Is it across the board consensus that: He did find love? and do you think they are still together? And which of the 3 remaining do you think won his heart?
Thanks.
Hi bachlorfan! I can only answer for myself, but I was unsure if there was a love connection until I saw the hometown date. Having viewed Bettina's hometown date, I just could not see her go to F1 from what we were presented ~ thus my thinking that either Jenni or DeAnna would be the F1. I could not see either of those two turning down Brad for either dating outside of the show or a proposal.

The guys were VERY tight lipped and gave us absolutely no clues on the F1/F2/F3, or even if there is a F1. My impression from watching the show, and just getting to know Brad a little bit, I just sense that he and the F1 are still together. He is such a kind, genuine and sincere guy that I do think that he went on the show for "the right reasons" and if it benefits the business, then so be it. That would be a side benefit, not the main reason or intent for him being on the show.

The editing was really throwing me for a loop because I felt that the producers were harsher towards the women this season, more so than any other. I do not know if the producers felt like the audience wanted more drama over a love story, or they just hired people with darker views on life.

Anyway, after watching the show, following the edits, remaining as neutral as possible while keeping my eyes wide open, and reading this message board for everyone's opinion, I have come to the conclusion at this point that DeAnna is the F1. A funny sidenote is that Jason and Brad were surprised that none of us had a favorite this season. Very surprised!

I truly think that it helps to guess wrong about a show to not only learn humbleness, but it helps to keep a better focus on what I might be missing in the clues. I guessed wrong last season, as well as Bachelor 2 ~ wonderful learning experiences indeed.

Lynn7 and Babyface (Jason), my computer here at work doesn't allow us to view jpg's or photos, so I'm definitely going to have to look at the photo that was posted tonight.

Great that some of the FORT ladies managed to meet up with y'all. Good luck with all the bars and hope business continues to do well for you.

Blondiegal, Thanks for responding. As long as Brad came out of this happy, that's all I want to see. He seems like such a great guy and now that you gals have confirmed ,that he is indeed so genieun and real. Then whatever choice he made, I hope he is happy . I think we all want to see a real love connection. I hope we get it..

Re: A few of us from FORT met Brad Monday night!

Hey Jason (babyfacec)
Just wondering if Brad has requested an increase in the bottles of Ouzo ordered?

So Blondiegal, Jelle, Cafegirl Grneyedgirl...no noticeable licorice smell on Brad? Hmmmm
Maybe he is saving it for the FRC viewing. Shots of Ouzo on the house that night perhaps! Should be a he//uva party that night!

Cheers...or OPA!
Thanks
Karey

So any pictures to show for your trip to Austin? I am sure everyone would love to see all the highlights of your trip. Or were pictures not allowed?
