What's a PTTE, you ask?
Well PTTE means "Picks To The End"

Okay... here's the goal:

Post your prediction about the ENTIRE boot order for the season (starting with first booted and ending with sole survivor)...

This doesn't need to have any analysis, although you're welcome to throw anything in that you want... this is fanatics, and this is intended to be fun.

With any spoiler information available to you, coupled with your own intuition, see how well you can do.

The poll won't close, but all votes made after any episode starts on the East coast won't count... the earlier you enter, the less points you may earn, so enter early, and enter often!!!

Scoring: There's been no changes since last season, since there was nothing I thought was wrong with the game... here's the way that the scoring will work:

1) You do NOT want points... they're bad... it's like golf. Every point counts against you in the standings, so try to avoid them.

2) Points will be awarded to every contestant in the game after each episode of Survivor 5: Thailand. They will be awarded as the difference between where you thought this week's bootee would finish and where the bootee actually finished.

For example: If episode 6 of S3 had just aired, and you thought that Lindsey was going to be S3's sole survivor, you would recieve 10 points for the week (She actually finished in eleventh place, you thought she would finish in first place: 11 - 1 = 10)

3) If you do not enter before the first episode, you will start with a score equivalent to 8 points per episode you missed. That means that it's possible to join the game after several episodes and enter in first place, but statistically speaking, you'll have a better chance if you enter earlier.

4) You will be given 5 points every time you change your PTTE... but it's only 5 points, so change it often if you think it will help you out. You will not be penalized for any changes made before the first episode airs. The five point penalties will come into play after episode one.

Housekeeping Procedures:
1) A point total will be posted by me shortly after each episode (unless I'm too busy, in which case I'll post it when I get to it)

2) I have written a computer program that will total your scores, thus please do not edit your post to make changes make a new post instead... once the computer has grabbed your list, it won't know you've changed it...

3) If this thread gets too long, it will be locked, and a new one will be started with the current standings, a copy of the rules, and a link back to this one.
