To All That Read This Post:
I hope I am not being too forward here, but I would like to try and enhance our viewing pleasure for the next season of Suvivor, especially since it is an All Star Season. I know I don’t have a lot of postings here on this Message Board, but believe me when I say, I have watched every season of Survivor, and I will probably watch every season that follows.
Which brings me to my point. On the Big Brother Message Boards here, there was a Poster that held a speculative contest for all message board members to play. I enjoyed it so much that I want to play again. Problem is that Big Brother wont be on for a few more months and The Big Brother Message Board already has a contest.
Last season of Survivor, I noticed there was no such game being played on the Survivor Message Boards. So I have taken it upon myself to adapt a similar game for those of us who watch Survivor. Then I took it to the next level and made it very simple for all who wish to play.
I spent over 2 weeks developing this, and worked very hard in hopes that you would play and enjoy. If you are playing and know other people that watch Survivor, please tell them of this contest I have devised and lets see how many of us we can get to play before the season is over.
To start First click the Reply Button Below, then simply click the Click Here button below. You will not be directed away from the Message Board. You will simply be able to start playing my contest.
ARW presents: Home Survivor - Message Board Game
The Survivors: Tyson Apostol, Randy Bailey, Rupert Boneham, James Clement, Sandra Diaz-Twine, Danielle DiLorenzo, Colby Donaldson, Cirie Fields, Russell Hantz, Amanda Kimmel, Jessica Kiper(Sugar), Stephenie LaGrossa, Jerri Manthey, Rob Mariano(Boston Rob), Parvati Shallow, James Thomas, Jr.(J.T.), Benjamin Wade(Coach), Tom Westman, Candice Woodcock, Courtney Yates
Fairly simple enough choose the Survivalist you think will win Survivor season 20, Heroes vs. Villains. Do so correctly and you could be the winner at home.
Each episode I will ask usually the same questions. As the season progresses some questions may be replaced to suit the shows current situations. Answer any one of them correctly and win points for that question. The more questions you get right the better your score. Points are added from week to week until the final episode where I will determine the final winner and post as such here on this message board. I offer no prize more than bragging rights. Sorry but this is not one of those contests where you are going to get a trophy, ribbon or trip to some exotic island in the sun. What you will win is a one of a kind graphic you can use anytime you want to post, showing off your keen ability to pick the winner. (Basically a virtual trophy, still in design.)
Each week you can earn up to 5 times this many bonus points if Your Pick hits all the bonuses perfectly, and depending on Survivalist’s performance with the number of weeks you have stood by them. That could increase your points by as much as 5,000 points or more, by the Final Tribal Counsel.
For the most part the questions will not change from week to week, unless a tribal merge has happened or circumstances allow a new set of questions available for me to use. I will not make the questions complicated, just simple yes/no & tribe a/b type questions. The points I use for each question will vary depending on what I consider is the difficulty.
When the Final Tribal Counsel has given their votes and a new Sole Survivor is crowned, I will quickly set to work and get all the results updated so all who played or enjoyed watching us play, will know who the top 3 contestants are and where they themselves ranked.
To Whom will I get the honor of crowning, The Message Board Home Survivor? Good Luck to all of you.

I have so very few rules but I do have them for a reason. So here they are:
1. You MUST be a RealityTVWorld.com member to play. I am not taking Email Applications. This is a Message Board Game. In order for you to play you need to post your replies here. Therefore you need to sign up now if you haven’t already, and then you may play.
2. You may begin to play at any time during the season. Even those of you just finding out about this game, I invite you to enter and play along. You don’t have to ask permission to play, just simply fill out the form below and repost back here in this group.
3. All entries must be entered 2 days before airdate. I reserve the right to change this rule. All entries that come in late or not at all will be considered null and void for the week (No Exceptions)
4. YOUR PICK and the bonus points system: YOUR PICK is the ultimate choice for which Survivalist you are rooting for to win as the new Sole Survivor. Once you have chosen a Survivalist you will start at Level 1. If for the next elimination you don’t change your mind you will be at Level 2, and so on for each elimination you don’t change your mind. If at anytime you wish to change loyalties for a different Survivalist you may do so, but you will by default go back to Level 1, and start over on the bonus points system. Should there be more than one elimination, you will get bonus points for both eliminations, provided of course YOUR PICK was not eliminated.
5. Once your entry has been submitted I ask that you don’t edit your post in anyway. If you decide you must absolutely change your mind: -- A. Your change must be before the 2 day rule or current deadline rule in order to be considered. -- B. If any changes are made after the 2 day rule or current deadline rule, all entries will be null and voided for the week. -- C. Go back and Edit the posting you want changed; You can do this 2 ways. **** 1 manually scroll through the information and manually change the problem. Or **** 2 you can go back to my original post, do the questionnaire again, copy the new information, then re-edit your post from earlier by first erasing the all of the old information and then pasting (Ctrl + A, and then Ctrl + V), the NEW information in the message box and reposting. -- D. Please don’t make a brand new post. This will help eliminate confusion.
6. I, AvidRealityWatcher, reserve the right to play along, and anyone of you may check to see if I am playing it straight.
7. Give me time to post the scores. I am human people. It takes me time to watch the show a few times so I can get all the facts and score all your entries properly, and then post them on here for all you to see. Thank you for your patience in this matter. As I post the scores, the Questionnaire will also be updated and ready for another weeks worth of speculative guessing.
8. Congratulate one another when you see others doing well.
9. Have fun, don’t take this game too seriously, and please enjoy watching Survivor.
YOUR PICK BONUS POINTS: Which survivalist do you think will be told, they are the new Sole Survivalist? This is YOUR PICK. This is where the bonus points come in. In order to get higher bonus scores you need to make YOUR PICK choice and then stick by them for as long as you can. Every elimination YOUR PICK survives is a higher bonus value. Example if you choose Survivalist A, and you don’t change your mind for 10 eliminations, your bonus points by this point in the game will be 100 points (or 550 total bonus points collectively). If you stick by them for 14 weeks you will get 250pts (or 1200 total bonus points collectively). If that Survivalist does well enough you may even get double or even triple the bonus.
You may change your answer to this question anytime you like, especially if that person gets voted out, until there are only 6 players left. Your Final YOUR PICK choice must be decided before there are only 6 players left in the game. This survivalist will be your Final YOUR PICK choice until the conclusion of the game.

Thanks you know right after I posted this, for whatever reason it was at that time that I noticed that. For 4 months now, I never noticed that part. Thanks I think I will post there too.

Hey Michel, Are you interested in playing? I have posted this info on the games site you pointed out. Been wondering what your thoughts are on who you think will win.
Please join in. I am hoping to have a lot of fun with the game this season. And for those reading this too, please you may post either here or on the Survivor Games treads.
