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."

"State Of The Spoiling -- Volunteers Wanted" |
I am looking for volunteers to help with our official State of the Spoiling (SOTS). What's that, you ask?Well... each week, we will publish a thread that tries to consolidate and refocus all of the spoiling for the week... the goal of the thread is primarily to inform, but it also acts as an index of the active posts in spoilers and encourages focussed discussion of the theories that have surfaced each week. We are looking for volunteers to put together this thread on a week-by-week basis... the job is a one week commitment, and here's what it entails:
- Make an attempt to read all of the active (ie: unlocked) threads in Spoilers between Thursday Night (after the show airs) and Tuesday Night for a week (actually... only five days).
- Assemble a summary, including links back to the original posts, of the various spoiling theories, to be posted sometime Tuesday Night or Wednesday Morning
I've found that this can be a mildly time-consuming task... it typically takes me about an hour to summarize and link everything in Spoilers, but may take you more or less time, depending on how organized you are... I've also found that the best approach is to take notes throughout the week as you read the forum, so that when it's time to post the SOTS, you already have an outline of what's been happening in Spoilers for a week. Here are a few examples of previous SOTS (yeah... they're all mine... so sue me ): Survivor 3, Episode 2 Survivor 3, Episode 5 (The Twist) Survivor 4, Episode 2 If you are interested in volunteering to take on SOTS for a week, please reply to this thread, and indicate any dates that you are not available... also, if you are interested in doing the first episode, please say so, since this one is usually a bit more time consuming. Tentative Schedule for Survivor VII: E1 - Thurs., Sept. 18 - SOTS to be posted Tues. afternoon, Sept. 16 (or Wednesday morning) E2 - Sept. 25 - SOTS Tues., Sept. 23 E3 - Oct. 2 - SOTS Tues., Sept. 30 E4 - Oct. 9 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 7 E5 - Oct. 16 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 14 E6 - Oct. 23 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 21 E7 - Oct. 30 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 28 E8 - Nov. 6 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 4 E9 - Nov. 13 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 11 E10 - Nov. 20 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 18 E10.5 - Nov. 27 - RECAP EPISODE (No SOTS Required) E11 - Dec. 4 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 2 E12 - Dec. 11 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 9 E13 - Dec. 18 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 16 Here's the deal: I will leave this thread open for about a week, before beginning to assign SOTS. I will probably assign only the first half of the season at this time, and request additional volunteers later for the second half. (Although if you are interested in doing a SOTS in the second half, sign up now, and you'll still be considered). People selected to do SOTS will be notified via e-mail with additional information and posting guidelines... the full list of those selected will be posted here, whenever I finally get around to making the selections.

Count me in if you need me. One caveat: I can't do week two. I'm summarizing Weak One, and the burns on my fingers will need time to heal. These reality show contestants need a reality check!

LAST EDITED ON 09-25-03 AT 01:49 AM (EST)For the first time ever, we had enough volunteers to schedule the entire season from the start. Thanks to everyone that volunteered. Writers -- please note that you have been assigned an episode number, NOT a date. While I do not anticipate the dates to be different from what is listed below, writers should be prepared to follow their episode number if it should air on a different date than is listed below. Here is the schedule: E1 - Thurs., Sept. 18 - SOTS to be posted Tues. afternoon, Sept. 16 (or Wednesday morning) - SurvivaBear E2 - Sept. 25 - SOTS Tues., Sept. 23 - mistofleas E3 - Oct. 2 - SOTS Tues., Sept. 30 - strid333 E4 - Oct. 9 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 7 - Sunny_Bunny cqvenus E5 - Oct. 16 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 14 - Devious Weasel E6 - Oct. 23 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 21 - Brownroach E7 - Oct. 30 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 28 - TeamJoisey E8 - Nov. 6 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 4 - Bebo E9 - Nov. 13 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 11 - Markopolo100 E10 - Nov. 20 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 18 - Az_Leo E10.5 - Nov. 27 - RECAP EPISODE (No SOTS Required) E11 - Dec. 4 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 2 - buckeyegirl E12 - Dec. 11 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 9 - PepeLePew13 E13 - Dec. 18 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 16 - ????

Writers -- you will recieve an e-mail at the address listed in your profile with additional information (and instructions, Sunny_Bunny ) approximately one week before you are scheduled to post your SOTS. Thanks again for volunteering and I look forward to reading your summaries. PS: Just so no one thinks that I'm avoiding Yogi, I recieved a PM from Yogi requesting to be left out due to unexpected conflicts .

If you've been admiring the work of mistofleas and SurvivaBear and thinking "I'd like to help, too", then please volunteer to help by responding to this message. I am looking for a replacement for episode four, only. Please read the initial post to this thread, then reply here if you're interested. Assigned writers for past or future episodes are welcome to volunteer to write episode four as well . Thanks in advance !

In an ideal world, you will hear from someone who has not written a SOTS, or is not presently assigned one.But if no one else sticks their hand in the air, I'll do it. P.S. It's easy. Write down everything Krautboy says, and call him a genius. These reality show contestants need a reality check!

Just so everyone knows... I'm trying to figure out what to do about the fact that we now have an Episode 7, Part 2 that will need a SOTS. I'm going to assign the SOTS and adjust the schedule soon... in the meantime, if there are any other volunteers, please keep responding.

54. ""New" SOTS Schedule - Writers, please respond again!!!" |
OKay... thanks to this two part deal (damn you, Mark Burnett!) we're going to have to change things up a bit. In order to minimize the headaches, what I've decided to do is keep people on the same dates that they were originally assigned, and switch the episodes around to fit that schedule...Here is the updated schedule with the new episode numbers. Writers... you have been assigned a new episode number, and if this schedule should change, please follow your episode number to it's new date. If the episode numbers change again, we'll deal with that later. Writers -- please respond to accept your "new" assignments... for most of you, this will not affect the dates of your summary... just the episode number Predicted Summary: E7A - Oct. 30 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 28 - TeamJoisey E7B - Nov. 6 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 4 - Bebo E8 - Nov. 13 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 11 - Markopolo100 E9 - Nov. 20 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 18 - ExInterper E10 - Nov. 27 - SOTS Tues., Nov 25 - rose E11 - Dec. 4 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 2 - buckeyegirl E12 - Dec. 11 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 9 - PepeLePew13 E13 - Dec. 18 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 16 - ???? Please note four things: 1) I have assigned E9 to ExInterper and E10 to rose. The two of you need to respond ASAP to verify that these assignments are alright. Also note that E10 may air on American Thanksgiving (meaning that SOTS would need to be posted on the Tuesday before)... if this is a problem for you, rose, do NOT accept your SOTS (also check out #3 in this list). 2) Traditionally, the finale SOTS is compiled by one of the blue people... we don't know which one of us will do it yet, but that's why it says "????" beside that date. 3) There is a possibility that there will still be a recap airing on Nov. 27 (Thanksgiving). In that case, the end of the season will probably look like this: E7A - Oct. 30 - SOTS Tues., Oct. 28 - TeamJoisey E7B - Nov. 6 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 4 - Bebo E8 - Nov. 13 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 11 - Markopolo100 E9 - Nov. 20 - SOTS Tues., Nov. 18 - ExInterper E9.5 - Nov. 27 - RECAP EPISODE (No SOTS Required) E10 - Dec. 4 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 2 - rose E11 - Dec. 11 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 9 - buckeyegirl E12 - Dec. 18 - SOTS Tues., Dec. 16 - PepeLePew13 E13 - Sunday, December 21 - SOTS Fri., Dec 19 - ??? Since this may potentially affect the SOTS compiled by rose, buckeyegirl, and PepeLePew13, please let me know ASAP if this potential date change will not work for you, so that we can start trouble-shooting now. 4) mistofleas - You're my backup in case there is anything that cannot be worked out with this change of plans... since you've already done a SOTS this season, I'm trying to give everyone a chance, but stay tuned just in case, and thanks for volunteering to help out!!!
