PTTE: The longest running RTVW game!

Are you ready for some PTTE?
What's a PTTE, you ask? Well PTTE means

"Picks To The End"

Talofa
Welcome Back!

It’s time for a new season of Survivor.
The 19th season to be exact.

We are on the island of Samoa
in the heart of the Pacific

There are just 6 Survivors trying to win a million dollars.
Who do you think will win?

How far will this Evil go?
Does it have any more tricks?
Will it triumph?

Did you know you could love evil?

Is there anyone to fight against it?

Keep watching to see.

And while you are waiting why not join this game.

To start the game you'll need to

post a list that reflects your prediction about the ENTIRE eviction order for the season.

Starting with the next (#6) to be eliminated and
ending with the winner (#1).
Unless you play the Teal game. (see below)

This doesn't need to have any analysis,
although you're welcome to throw anything in that you want...
this is a game and is intended to be fun.
Use any spoiler information available to you,
coupled with your own intuition, see how well you can do.

Dave Ball was the 11th Castaway to be voted out.
He was the 13th to leave the game.

The sock puppet seems to know where to find those points.



It is time to shorten the rules.
If you need an explanation, check out last week’s post.

Here are the divisions:

Regular PTTE – Lowest score wins

To make changes:

Post your prediction for the REMAINING boot order for the season
Starting with next booted (#6)
and ending with Sole Survivor (#1)

You will be given penalty points every time you change your PTTE list.

+5 points for regular game
+8 points for All-Star game

Medium Teal PTTE – Highest score wins

To make changes:

Post your prediction for the REMAINING boot order for the season
Starting with the Sole Survivor (#20)
and ending with next booted (#15)

You will be given penalty points every time you change your PTTE list.

-5 points for medium teal game
-8 points for All-Star Medium Teal game

The game will be open for anyone to join at anytime.

If you do not enter before the first episode, you will start with a score equivalent to 8 points per episode you missed. That means that it's possible to join the game after several episodes and enter in first place, but statistically speaking, you'll have a better chance if you enter earlier.

This week you will start with 64 points.

PRE-SEASON BONUS:
To reward those who keep their original list I will again offer a
"Stick With Your List" Bonus this season.
The longer you keep your list (without changing it), the more points I will add or take-away.

Keep your list for:
3 weeks = -1 point or +1 point for teal
7 weeks = -1 points or +1 points for teal
11 weeks = -2 points or +2 points for teal
Final week = -2 points or +2 points for teal

If you would like to do a little more research check out CBS

If you have any questions post them in this thread or PM me.
(Private Message located top right on page, larger envelope icon.)

I will make a copy of your list one minute before the start of the show.
7:59 pm EDT on Thursday, December 17, 2009.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

KIRCON’S RAMBLINGS

The blizzard produced 18.9 inches of snow.
It was beautiful because I had a husband who snowblowed and dug our cars out.
The next day he cleared our son’s (in southern Iraq) drive & sidewalk.
And then the next day he shoveled our roof.
The answer is to prevent ice jams and damage.
