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."

"S12 Office Pool Sign-Up Thread" |
LAST EDITED ON 01-18-06 AT 08:27 PM (EST) Come one, come all -- it's time to sign up for the Survivor 12 – Exile Island Office Pool! After my first season as your Office Pool Hostess, I have learned a lot and will continue to keep this game as simple and easy as possible, but mostly, more like the Office Pool! Although I will stay true to last year’s format, I have also planned on adding a few of my own little twists along the way. So be prepared! So come on in friends, gather round the Office water cooler, and let me explain how the Office Pool is played. The Rules: 1. Every week in the entry thread you must put a survivor's name in your subject line. If you do not get an entry in before 12 NOON EST the day of the show, you will be penalized -50 points and will be assigned (at random) a survivor from the remaining survivors by the Host. If 16 are playing the game, than every survivor can be picked only once during a week. If 32 are playing than each survivor may be picked twice during the week. 2. You may NOT pick the same survivor two weeks in a row. Ever. Under any circumstances. 3. Scoring: You will get points if your survivor wins a team or individual Immunity; wins a team or individual Reward; is selected by the Reward winner to share in the reward; finds a hidden Immunity Idol; delivers an elimination vote; and for every confessional your survivor has. You will receive an additional bonus if you correctly guess the number of confessionals your Survivor has each week. This bonus shall be called the “Hit the Nail on the Head Bonus.” When counting confessionals, the Hostess counts each time the survivor is shown talking directly to the camera (with or without their name shown). You will also have the opportunity to win or lose Bonus points throughout the season. You will lose points if your survivor gets votes without being eliminated, has no confessionals or is exiled to Exile Island. You will also get negative points for NOT putting your Survivor’s name in the Subject Line of your post. Please note, the Hostess is prone to use hidden clues for random additional bonuses, so it is imperative that players be on their toes at all times. 4. If your survivor gets voted out, you are eliminated from the game. Always. There will be no Immunity. 5. This year, to keep everyone on their toes and to let everyone have an equal chance of winning, I will post the entry threads at random times sometime before 12 noon on the Tuesday before each new episode. The picking will be in a musical chairs-type fashion – first come, first pick and so on. ALL PICKS MUST BE MADE BY 12 NOON EST ON THE DAY THE SHOW AIRS. If you must be out of town for some reason and cannot make your pick, please pm me in advance with your top three pick choices and I will make your pick for you. 6. Points and Leaderboards will be explained and posted each week by yours truly in a prompt manner. 7. This game can only be played in numbers of 16. However, learning from experience, I will accept up to two alternates. If, for whatever reason, a player goes awol, then I will contact an alternate to enter the game at that time. Alternates cannot play unless they are invited to do so by the Hostess. I repeat, All players must pick their Survivor by 12 noon on the day the show airs. The first 16/32 players to sign up will play the game. 8. Occasional discrepancies or oversights in scoring are few and far between, but sometimes can occur. If you have a concern or question about your score, kindly PM the Hostess. You will find me very open and agreeable. These are the rules. Welcome and Jump In! List of official Survivors to Choose from each week:
Dan Barry Aras Baskauskas Austin Carty Terry Dietz Danielle DiLorenzo Cirie Fields Misty Giles Melinda Hyder Bruce Kanegai Courtney Marit Bobby Mason Ruth Marie Milliman Shane Powers Tina Scheer Sally Schumann Nick Stanbury Lastly, I would like to once again formally thank my good friend Tribephyl for the spectacular graphics for this game! They couldn't be better! Thank you, my talented friend and Game Host Mentor!! And in The Office Pool Creator OhmyHeck's words ... "Why is it official? Because I said so." In the spirit of the game, I will do my best as Hostess to make this fun and fair! Let the Office Pool begin! First 16/32 people to sign up in this thread are in the game. First come first serve. Please note this is NOT an entry thread, just a sign-up thread!
The Tribe has spoken!

I think there's still only 30 people in the pool. So there should be room for you kingfish.The most recent tally for available survivors is here. Of course, this is all without knowing what Scarlett will deem appropriate. So make sure to check-in in the entry thread and ask for sure. But, I feel confident it'll be okay. You have till Noon today to put your swimtrunks on and make your survivor choice.
