PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Survivor - the Greek Islands: Season Finale Part I" |
Previously on Survivor... The alliance of Ian, Mike, Earl and Aras had been through so much together that doubts were growing, paranoia settling in. Some wondered if working with Sandra, the fearless, outspoken outsider, wouldn't be a better option. With his neck on the line, Aras won immunity by eliminating the last standing players in a Survivor version of paintball. That win meant that other players came under discussion, namely Earl and Mike but, in the end, the tribe voted together and eliminated the ex-two time winner, Sandra. Now 4 are left and they will face 2 immunity challenges and 3 Tribal Councils in a game that can still offer new twists. Who will be crowned Sole Survivor? Mike? The provider who worked hard to keep the tribe happy? Ian? The smart player who kept the ship on course? Earl? The steady hand who communicated his ideas to the group? Aras? The savvy player who made the moves to get him further? All 4 are quite deserving of the title of Sole Survivor but only one will get the crown and the million...hoorays that come with it. Watch as they battle it out tonight!

2. "The Challenge:" |
LAST EDITED ON 06-11-12 AT 09:12 PM (EST)This challenge is called: Fallen Comrades. I will be asking questions about the players in this game and about those in the real game of Survivor. The one with the most points will win immunity. You will have until Tuesday 7:00PM to submit your PM. If we have a tie, the earliest submitted PM will win. If you are on the jury, let me know which player you are playing for (it would be nice to get some variety in your picks but you decide) Q1: In our game, name the Survivors in the order they were voted out of this game (Even when two players were voted out at the same TC, I eliminated one before the other.) 1 point if you get it right. Q2: For another point: In order, name all our individual immunity winners? Q3:In our game, which player received votes in more different Tribal Councils than anyone else? Q4: I will post little known facts for each season that featured one of the Survivors that made the merge. Your job is to identify the season by the anecdote. 1 point if you get them all. (0.1 point per good answer) A- After an episode aired, Burnett had to apologize to the local government for a law that had been broken by a player. B- A player made a fake idol to trick another but then decided he/she couldn’t go through with the lie. C- Talks of a Final 6 cross-tribal alliance collapsed because one player had trouble focusing, still dizzy from a knock on the head suffered during the merge immunity challenge. D- The reaction from a player in this cast as he/she was voted out was often used by a popular talk show host as a go-to scene. E- A member of this cast had once worked as firefighter in Ghana. F- One member of this cast thought it would be a good idea to fake being dehydrated so he/she pretended to collapse during the first couple of days, hoping to get extra water from the staff. G- The family visit was cancelled because of a coup d’état H- The two alternates were actually added to the cast just before the start of the first episode eventhough no one had bailed out. I- One member of this cast later married a Major league baseball player. J- During this season, a survivor was visited by his/her sister and that sister would later “star” in another reality TV show. Q5: What do the following Survivors have in common: Stacey Stillman, Ramona Grey, Jeff Varner, Sarah Jones, Shii Ann Huang (in Thailand), Daniel Lue, Ryan Shoulders, Colby (in All-Stars), Rory Freeman, Sylvia Kwan, Ashley Massaro, Jean-Robert Bellande, Chet Welch, Gillian Larson, Sandy Burgin, Stacey Powell and Bill Posley.
The right answer is worth 1 point. Q6: Would any Survivor in our game join that group? (not you as players but your aliases)(1point)
For 1 more point: If you said yes, who? If you said no, who came closest?

E Borneo: Colleen had once worked as firefighter in Ghana. (page 126 in Burnett’s book “Survivor”)Aye carumba, not that his book is obscure but I should have known that you weren't just scrounging these things off the CBS site. It makes those Survivor quizzes rated "tough" or "difficult" look like cake walks. Well done, no not you, my brain. crispy dood. I'll get you my pretty, and your little dog too.

11. "Challenge Results:" |
I'm looking at your exams and I must say I don't see many A+! Maximum score was 7Kriss: You got the Samoa anecdote right so that gives you the (temporary) lead with 0.1 points! Earl did a little better, getting 3 anecdotes right and a total of 0.3 points. Suzzee, let's look at your exam: You had the order of immunity right and 3 anecdotes for a score of 1.3! You take the lead Georgianna did better though with the boot order and 5 anecdotes for a total of 1.5 points. Her secret survivor now has the lead. So that leaves Ian who messed up the boot order by counting Greg, forgot that Dreamz won immunity and, like others, thought Sandra had received votes in more TCs than anyone else. For the anecdotes, he got 5 right. But then he got the Q5 answer so he got the point for Q6 and named only Chase as one of the 3 players that qualified so that earns him 0.3 points. That gives Ian a total of 2.8 points and: . . . . . . . . . . With that, Ian wins immunity I will be opening Tribal Council at about 9:00PM. That gives Ian a little more than an hour to decide if he keeps immunity or gives it to someone else.

13. "F4 Tribal Council:" |
Please take you seat as we welcome the members of the jury; Georgianna, Suzzee, Tribephyl, Jbug, Agman, Corvis and Sandra, voted out at the last tribal council.
As you face the jury, who do you think is your biggest opposition to win the next challenge? Who do you think is your biggest opposition to win the jury vote? Do you vote out the challenge threat or the jury threat, or do you vote out the person you feel least deserves to get to the end? If the 4 remaining Survivors could please PM me their answers so that I could post them here for them. Ian, you won immunity, I guess that big smile means you will be keeping it? I thought so. You cannot vote for Ian, the other three are fair game. Please cast your votes before Thursday 7:00PM. (And don't forget your homeworks!)

It depends on what kind of challenge it is. We all have won but the challenges were different. Us 4 have been part of an alliance since the beginning and have no idea what the jury thinks about that... I won't know who to write down until I get to the voting booth...

29. "Scheduling Note" |
LAST EDITED ON 06-14-12 AT 08:53 PM (EST)This is the schedule that I have in mind: Tonight: Final Immunity Challenge starts and will have to end by Saturday morning. F3 vote goes until Saturday night. F2 players get to plead their case in 1 post by Sunday evening. Jurors submit 1 question each by Monday evening. F2 Players answer by Wednesday evening when the voting starts. I will be taking FTC votes until Friday the 22nd at 8:00PM and would announce the winner after that. There will be more details on how to preceed as we get there but this is to give you an idea of when things will happen. For tonight, I am dealing with a situation that could delay the TC results and the next challenge but it shouldn't go later than 9:00PM.

30. "Final 3" |
I was hoping that Spot would reconsider after he had sent me this message earlier today: "I'm quitting, sorry. Personal reasons. Not going to be on the jury either."
Therefore, the thing to do is to consider that Ian had to be medevaced even if he had immunity.
That means that we now have our Final 3:
who was played by: Who represented:
and: the Survivor of: (Interesting to note that all three were volcanoes!) Yes, that is right, I decided to reveal the Players' identity immediately because they will soon have to compete against each other for the most important immunity of the game.

32. "Rites of Passage:" |
As they make their way to final immunity, Aras, Earl and Mike walked passed the torches of their fallen comrades:First we had Suzie, a finalist in Gabon: Susie : Gabon was a damned mess. And I was still next to first. I was first out of this piece of Greek Islands cake. Gone! Caput! Fini! At the first Tribal! What an embarrassment. Then came Natalie from Redemption Island: Natalie T : I just couldn’t find an alliance that would work for me. Next, we had Chase's torch: Chase : Being from the South I thought my easy going ways would charm the ladies and seem non-threatening to the guys--besides I hoped that not being a former winner would keep a target off my back. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out that way. Soon they reached Sophie's torch from South Pacific (the only season without any sort of rites of passage): Sophie : I guess I saw the difference between being included in a solid alliance on day 1 and being in a position where no one approached me. Next came one of my personal favorites: Chris : It’s tough being a previous winner and known to have told a lie or two in the past. The following Survivor was Neleh from Marquesas: Neleh : They still didn’t want to share mints with me. From there, the survivors walked to Kelly's torch: Kelly : I had the first alliance ever when I talked to Richard on day one but I had none this time. And then we had the winner from Samoa: Natalie W : My word! I'm happy to have made it as far as I did in this game…I had won once before, so it's really not surprising that they voted me out. I wish I could've stayed longer, but it's a game, right? It's all good. Soon we saw them approach Becky's torch: Becky : I came into the game wanting to prove that I'm more than just the girl who can't make fire, and I think I did. I strategized, I tried to work hard at camp, but ultimately, we were just outmatched by the other tribe. Then came her big brother who was eliminated in the same tribal council: Yul : It’s harder to play without a hidden immunity idol. They then proceeded to the players that had made the merge, starting with another winner: Danni : I worked so hard to get far but I just didn't make enough of an alliance early on to carry me through. They probably thought I was a too big of a threat to keep. Oh well." Finally, they got to our own players. First came Georgianna:
Georgianna (Dreamz): The game made me feel ... Wowed, weary and wiser. Next we had Suzzee: Suzzee(Kathie): What an eye-opener! This was a terrific game and I am very glad I signed up. I was surprised that mistrust within the Greek Island Association came so soon after forming. I knew there would be sub alliances within eventually. I probably would play something like this again but I would try another type of strategy. Tribephyl(Greg), Jbug(Mick) and Agman(Jenna) haven't left me their thoughts yet but can always do so in answer to this post: So, next we have: Corvis(Todd): I had a lot of fun playing the game and strategizing, making alliances and tricking other people. I think I could have made it to F3 with Spot and Kris, but with the twist in this game, I didn't stand a chance. Belle Book(Sandra) is another one that didn't leave thoughts. There's still time. Finally, we had Spot who could very well have won this game. We have now reached the Final immunity which I will post shortly.

35. "Final Immunity: A Question of Balance" |
This challenge is reserved to the Final 3 players. I ask the jury not to post anything here or to send help to the players via PM. I also ask the players not to use the internet to help find the answer. You wanted to play Survivor which means no ressources! I’m not sure the answer is even posted somewhere but it very well could be so please, play fair.So often, the Final 3 IC winner faces the toughest decision of the season so I decided it would be a good thing to do it like they do it on the show: The F3 IC winner will be the only one to vote, deciding whom he will face in front of the jury. This is what you will be using for the challenge: You will also receive 12 coins (I seriously suggest you use real coins to keep track of your tries) 11 of those coins have the exact same weight. 1 is different. Your job is to find a way that would always reveal that different coin in no more than 3 weighings on that tip-scale. You will have to account for all possibilities. Your answer will therefore be in the form: 1st weighing: You put so many coins on one side and that same number on the other: What happens? What do you do next depending on one of the possibilities of the 1 st weighing. What do you do next depending on the other possibilities. I will allow each player to send me 3 PMs. I will answer your first two attempts, telling you where you went wrong if you did. That will not only give you an idea of what form your final answer should have but it could also give you hints on how to proceed. If no one solves the puzzle by Saturday at noon, I will have to determine who came closest. (See, I’m hoping this will be the toughest challenge yet!)

49. "A Question of Balance - Solution:" |
LAST EDITED ON 06-16-12 AT 09:24 PM (EST)Weighing #1: Put 4 on each side: 2 possible outcomes 1) They are balanced => The different coin is in the 4 left out while those 8 used can be seen as standards A) Weighing #2: Put 2 of those coins originally left out on one side, put one on the other and add one of the “standards”: We now have 2 possibilities; i- They are balanced => The different coin is the one that had been left out once more. Weighing #3: Put it on one side and put a standard on the other and you will be able to tell me whether the different coin is lighter or heavier. ii- They are unbalanced => Weighing #3: Take the two unkown coins that had been on the same side and split them into their own side: We have now 4 possibilities: a- If the two coins had been on the heavy side but are now balanced then the unkown coin that was left out is lighter than all the others. b- If the two had been on the heavy side and are now unbalanced then the one that is on the heavy side is heavier than all the others c- If the two coins had been on the light side but are now balanced then the unkown coin that was left out is heavier than all the others. d- If the two had been on the light side and are now unbalanced then the one that is on the light side is lighter than all the others 2) They aren’t balanced (Here is the tricky part! There are different ways to go about it but the trick is the divide those 8 coins into a 3-3-2 arrangement) B) Weighing #2: Put 2 from the heavy side and transfer one possibly light coin on one platter. Transfer the 3rd coin from the heavy side and put in on the other platter with one of the 3 remaining from the light side and add a standard (any of the 4 coins that had been left out in the 1st weighing). This leaves 2 coins from the light side and 1 from the heavy side off the scale. i- The scale is now balanced => The different coin is among the three left out of weighing #2. Weighing #3: Split the 2 light coins on the scale - If they are balanced then the coin left out is heavier than all the rest. –If they are unbalanced then the one that is on the light side is the different coin and is lighter than all the rest. ii- The scale is now unbalanced BUT it is heavier on the side where we have 1 heavy, one light and 1 standard. That means that the different coin is either that possibly heavy one or the light one that had been put on the other side. Weighing #3: Weigh the coin that is possibly heavy against a standard: If they are balanced then, the coin left out was lighter than all the rest but if they are unbalanced then the coin that was on the heavy side is indeed heavier than all the rest. iii- The scale is unbalanced BUT it is heavier on the side where the two heavy coins had been left. We have only 1 weighing left and the different coin is either one of those two heavy coins or the light one that had been left on its original side. Weighing #3: Compare the two heavy coins: If they are balanced then the coin we thought was light is indeed the different one. If they are unbalanced then the one that is on the heavy side is the different one. After receiving different entries the one that contained the solution although not quite complete belonged to... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mike! Mike wins immunity!

50. "Congratulations Krismiss!" |
By winning the F3 immunity challenge Mike has given you the obligation to make the toughest decision yet: Deciding who will face you in front of the jury.You can post your decision here and you can do so immediately or after talking to the other two finalist. I ask that you do NOT to talk to members of the jury however. Once Kris' decision is known, the eliminated player will be asked to leave their brief final words. Others can also say goodbye in answer to that post. I will be opening a Jury thread shortly where the procedure for the final vote will be explained.
