LAST EDITED ON 02-19-11 AT 05:45 AM (EST)

PTTE was born September 28, 2001, during the S3 Africa season. sleeve created this fun game for RTVW’s enjoyment. Today, I am posting the 20th version. Happy Anniversary to me! I am hosting my 10th season of Survivor PTTE. Where has the time gone?

PTTE: The longest running game at Blows!

Are you ready for some PTTE?

What's a PTTE, you ask? Well PTTE means:

"Picks To The End"

S22 PTTE: Redemption Island

Welcome Back!

It’s time for a new season of Survivor.
The 22nd to be exact.
Can you believe it?

We are still in Nicaragua
A country full of incredible natural beauty
volcanoes, beaches, cloud forests
and now a Redemption Island.

There are 18 Survivors trying to win a million dollars.
Who do you think will win?
Who will be the first Survivor kicked off the island?
Who will survive Redemption Island?

Those are a few of the questions of this game.

To start this game you will need to

post a list that reflects your prediction about the ENTIRE boot order
for the season.

Starting with the next castaway (#17)
& ending with the winner (#1).
Unless you play the Teal game.

This doesn't need to have any analysis,
although you're welcome to throw in anything you want...
this is a game and is intended to be fun.
How well you can do?

Here are the divisions:

Regular PTTE

– Lowest score wins

Post your prediction for the ENTIRE boot order for the season
Starting with next booted (#17)
and ending with Sole Survivor (#1)

Medium Teal PTTE

– Highest score wins

Post your prediction for the ENTIRE boot order for the season
Starting with the Sole Survivor (#17)
and ending with next booted (#1)

Green PTTE (Spoiler-Free)

– Lowest score wins

This is a game for those who want to play spoiler free.
I will run all information through PM’s
You will not need to visit this thread again.

Please do not post your list in this thread

Click above for Green PTTE Entry]

Send me your prediction for the ENTIRE boot order for the season
Starting with first booted (#17)
and ending with Sole Survivor (#1)

To keep you spoiler free
I will allow you to change your list, after the first show.
Considering this is the first you’ve seen most of them.

But there is a bonus to posting a list (any list) before the show starts.
And I would like to know you are playing.
You do not need to provide a list until the start of the 2nd episode.

Most people who play a non-spoiled game score in the middle.
So don’t worry about a low score.
The LOWEST score wins.

For the first time this season I say

Now on to the Game:

The first castaway who had their flame extinguished in S22 was:

Francesca Hogi

Read what RTVW had to say about it Here.

I guess we won’t find out if this attorney was the perfect combination of salty and sweet.

Now on to the scores:

Place – Name – Score on current list

15. dabo - 17

Welcome dabo and congrats on holding the Teal’s first place.
I will post dabo’s list and the green players below.

Okay... how do you play:

SCORING:

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,
unless you are playing the MEDIUM TEAL game.
then you want all the points you can get.

2) Points will be awarded to each boot, after each episode.

They will be awarded as the difference between
where you thought this week's castaway would finish
and where the castaway actually finished.

3) You will be given penalty points every time you change your PTTE list.

+5 points for regular game
+5 points for green game
-5 points for medium teal game
+8 points for All-Stars
]+8 points for Green All-Stars
-8 points for All-Star Medium Teals

4) There will be several tie-breaker questions.
Check back to catch them. I will also send out a PM to alert you.
I have used several tie-breaker questions the last few seasons
to break ties and even determine a winner.

5) The game will be open for anyone to join at anytime.

Entry is free for the first two weeks.

If you do not enter before the 2nd episode, you will start with a score equivalent to 8 (-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.

If you would like to do a little more research check out CBS

If you have any questions post them in this thread or PM me.
(Private Message located top right on page, larger envelope icon.)

Post your list and number them from 1 to 17

Sit back and enjoy the next show of:

S22 PTTE: Redemption Island

You must post your list by,
7:59 pm EDT on Wednesday, February 23, 2011.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

Have a question on editing. Does an edit mean you can change your whole list or just one person? Also why not just do scoring when a survivor is really booted off the show? Thanks Kircon.

Free Edit means you can change your entire list or just one person. Whatever you feel will help your scoring. I usually give a free edit to those who enter the first week. I have no clue if I will give another. As for the scoring I will deal that another time.
