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."

"S1 Gufu Award: Eps 1, 2, 3" |
Friends, it is time to begin the process of determining which gufus from S1 and S2 will join the S3 winner (Silas' Strategy Proposal! from S3ep4) and S4 winner (Rotu 4 Reveal Boot Order at IC8! from S4ep8) as Ultimate Gufus! How this will work overall, I'm hoping to have all the nomination/voting threads up by mid July, and the voting will remain open on all of these threads until the Final Vote threads are started sometime in August. Each of these nomination/voting threads will cover three or two episodes, so I would also ask that animations and sigpics be kept to a minimum (not saying don't use them, just requesting that you not use a multitude of them on these threads).Okay, the Gufu Award was established to determine the dangdumbest game move in Survivordum. You will have two nomination/votes per episode (which may only be used for that episode). So, refresh your memories by following the links supplied below, and take your time if you wish (this is a summer project, don't worry about beating the deadline, let's have fun!). Very Important: Do Not Reply to This Post! I will be starting three reply posts, one for each episode covered in this thread, and you should reply to each of those posts only with your nomination/votes for that episode. Actually, if you have any questions, post those as replies to this post, that's cool, but please have a little pity on der Gufumeister here by keeping things clean and neat for me. It's okay to respond in reply to what others post if you have any additional observations you would like to make, but remember please that none of this stuff is worth fighting over. Okay, the links: episode 1
episode 2
episode 3 And if anyone would like to volunteer to help out in this project (by posting a nomination/vote thread or two when I cannot, in order to keep this project on schedule), email me please.

LAST EDITED ON 06-07-02 AT 11:11 AM (EST)First, Sir E, you didn't need to remove your sigpic, but thank you for the consideration. I don't want peeps to not use their sigs, I just want to have them limited (ie. people like me with a collection should please limit their usage on these thresds; it's mainly a question of download time). Second, I had a tough time picking only two gufus for this episode, such a good batch to select from! Vote 1: Hatch Goes Out on a Limb. He had the entire situation misread when he climbed out on that limb and tried to implement his strategy (which was smart but ill-timed) and then when it became obvious it wasn't working instead of getting into the program with the rest of Tagi by throwing in to do his share of the work, he stayed there trying to rethink his game plan. He got damn lucky not to be the first one voted out, lucky that Sonja messed up at the IC and made a target of herself, lucky that Stacey's chicks alliance didn't work for Sue, and lucky that Stacey tried to target Rudy instead of himself (which Sue might have gone along with). Honorable mention to Stacey's chicks alliance; pretty good idea that alliance thing, but she blew it by making it gender-based rather than weighing individual merit and potential contribution as the criteria upon which to base who to cultivate into an alliance. Vote 2: BB's Stubborn Leadership. The guy hit the ground intent on proving himself an indispensible workhorse who knew what he was doing, and it took him no time at all to essentially isolate himself within his tribe by messing up at the social aspects of the game. Sure, he knew what he was doing when it came to constructing the hut, but why wouldn't a construction guy from the mountains be willing to listen when someone with some beach experience tries to clue him in about that all important location location location! Still, I liked and admired the guy, so kudos to him for keeping it in check when the Pagong of Five decided to act like the whole thing was pretty much a vacation.

14. "RE: Episode 1 Nomination/Votes" |
This is the only episode of Survivor I have never seen, so I'm going on the summary here. I'm also having problems (like in my S2 gufu votes) deciding because knowing the outcome really changes my perceptions. Didn't think it would, but it does. That said, here are my two nominations:1. Richard makes himself a target by not helping set-up camp, and by trying to act like a 'facilitator' instead of a peer. 2. BB's stubborn insistance on where/how to construct the shelter, & brushing off advice--especially Gretchen's.  Swami

LAST EDITED ON 06-06-02 AT 10:45 PM (EST)Vote 1: I support Pepe's vote of B.B.'s laundry thing. Vote 2: B.B. makes his tribe work, calling them lazy. Built up resentment in his tribe, who just wanted to chill. It doesn't matter who was right or wrong, because ultimately it is the group who decides. edited to remove sig pic ======================= Survivorerist - Oh where oh where did my sig pic go?

Vote 1: BB Implodes His Own Game Plan! The guy just couldn't handle it that he was stuck with a bunch of vacationing slackers, he should have just let it slide off his back. His strong suit was that he liked to keep busy, he should have just settled down and played to his own strengths, but instead he just got fed up that the majority of Pagong weren't following his lead, and he started acting up. Dumb dumb dumb.Vote 2: Gervase's Performance at IC2! Not a bad strategy trying to be the life of the party and so on, but Immunity Challenges need to be taken seriously in this game, that's no time to screw around. A million bucks on the line and you make a spectacle of yourself because you don't like what's on the plate that's been set before you? Well, okay, they were bugs, but sometimes in life you do have to just steel yourself and choke it down. A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, as the Duke used to say. (That said, it was pretty funny to watch, though.)
