Welcome to the final challenge, NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK. The final challenge is a pretty grueling task. Listed below are 63 facts pertaining to 63 of the 64 Survivors from seasons 1 - 4. One is missing. Your job is to identify which Survivor does not have a fact about him/her listed below.
In order to do this, you'll have to go to the CBS websites and look at each bio, and hope to find one of these facts. All the facts listed below are from the CBS websites. To make things slightly less challenging, I've included four links to the four CBS Survivor websites that you'll need in order to complete this challenge.
In order to win this, you must reply to this very post with the name of the Survivor who is excluded from the list of facts. DO NOT EMAIL ME THE ANSWER! I'm not even going to check my email. Please remember on hit the "reply button" to this post and not any other ones in the thread or it will not count.
You are allowed 2 tries. If you are wrong both times then you are automatically out. You do not need to wait for me to tell you if your first guess is right or wrong before you move on to the next one. If you are first to reply and your first guess is right, even if your second guess is wrong...you will still be the winner. So it's probably a good idea to guess twice just to be safe. And you must put your 2 guess in TWO SEPERATE POSTS. Like I said up top....all answers must be in reply to this very post.
I do not want the names of the Survivors next to their facts -- those are just the clues you need to go by to discover who is excluded from the list.
Here are the links:
Survivor 1: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor/survivors/
Survivor 2: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor2/survivors/
Survivor 3: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor3/survivors/
Survivor 4: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor4/survivors/
Listed below are the 63 Facts. Good luck to Kermit and Lion. Survivors Ready?
