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."

"Survivor: Tocantin Summary Sign-Up Thread" |
LAST EDITED ON 01-13-09 AT 05:25 PM (EST)Because if you've looked at the cast list and don't hate them all already, you must be new here. Here's how it works: 1. We have sixteen contestants. This should mean that we're back to a standard thirteen episodes plus the Reunion, giving us fourteen total summary slots. (Whoever gets the finale takes the summary up until the announcement of the winner and first reaction shots: the Reunion transcriber takes over from there.) The mandatory Recrap episode is traditionally not summarized unless the moderators really need a punishment detail. 2. In order to write a Survivor summary, you must have completed a summary for any other show first. No total rookies, please: we need you to have taken a swing at someone and incurred at least one lawsuit. (The exception is the Recrap. If anyone for some deity-forsaken reason wants it, just say so. I'm sure your estate will understand. By the way, this has never happened of anyone's own free will.) 3. After the episode airs, the summarizer has to compile a version of the events filled with hate, disgust, complete contempt, and as much snark as they can personally stand, then let the public bask in their venom. (Again, looking at the current contestant group, this shouldn't be a problem.) Summaries are posted in the Bashers forum and must go up within 72 hours of the episode's airtime. Any resemblance between the summary and the actual show should be at least vaguely coincidental, for a really generous definition of 'vague'. As a general guideline, it helps if we can at least spot who was voted out. 4. Anyone interested in writing a summary must apply on this thread: just reply to the post. If you have any dates which you cannot work with, let everyone know in advance: we'll (the imperial 'we'll') try to accommodate people if we can. The season premieres on 2/12, so you must sign up by 11:59 p.m. EST on February 3rd to be considered. 5. Should there be more writers than summary slots, one of the moderators will conduct a random draw to see who gets the episodes. Feeling motivated yet? Is the rage starting to boil? If not, go look at the cast list again. There you go. Now channel it into something destructive.

I'm in! Does self-loathing count as a prerequisite, or just give me a head start? Do I have to finish watching the tapes of last season? I had to be institutionalized after my summary of Ep. 4 (or was it 3?). Would that constitute aversion therapy? I still can't tie a bow-tie, but I saw a good instructional piece w/ drawings in the LA Times recently. (See, that rag may be good for something after all.) I'll have to find a panoramic shot from Mt. Arboreal in central Brazil.

LAST EDITED ON 01-19-09 AT 12:22 PM (EST) is there a word limit? If not, I guess I'm in...but not March 31-April 12thish because I'll be in Europe and I made that mistake once before. It's hard to write a summary when you can't see the show. Kimmah Says --shamelessly following in the footsteps of the weasel since like 2003 or something.eta--I prefer a later epi, or the first one but will take whatever. In the first show, it doesn't matter if you know their names, which is a big plus for me.

OKie dokie, then. I watched what was on tape (god forbid I use CBS' free re-views with the commercials), and survived. So Bobby Bowtie won w/ Randy-loves-his-dog-more-than-people's vote. Susie imploded, Suga gave it up for the experience (was is as good for her as it was for me?). All's good in MBworld. Nice how the shark has been jumped fer sure. Admitting $-po'boys and casting on the street via CBS casting connections and the regular application process. Are we DIVERSE ENOUGH!? for this season? Some black ho says "I'll swallow", so maybe. Someone should make a FutureWorld remake of RealityWorld. Or is that redundant? I even read the cast spoiler thread with some pictures! And there's a casting call (or was) here in LA for the next next one.

LAST EDITED ON 02-04-09 AT 03:49 AM (EST)I was up anyway. I'm initially posting these by episode number because of the March Madness factor: you can never be sure if CBS will push an episode to Wednesday, take a week off, or both. Given that, we're looking at a list of: #1. Frisky #2. Samboohoo #3. Snidget #4. AliciaBBrown #5. Kircon #6. Michel #7. Bebo (non-elimination episode) #8. Spanky #9. Vince3 #10. BuckeyeGirl #11. AnotherKim #12. MattBen #13. DeviousWeasel Reunion: Estee Recrap: MaxHeadroom (He practically begged for it.) Should anyone be unable to do their summary, please let me know (at least) a few days in advance and I'll arrange a pinch-hitter. Welcome to Survivor: Millionaires vs. Models. You? Have already lost.

Because of the first-ever lime helmet given out for two summaries written for the same week by Bebo (following her scheduled Episode 7) and Spanky (jumping the gun and posting an Episode 7 summary masquerading as "Episode 8"), we now have a situation that needs to be solved.Spanky - are you planning to go ahead and do another summary for tonight's actual Episode 8? Here's the episode list again with 1 change in summary writers, and with dates added in: Done: #1. Frisky - Feb 12 #2. Samboohoo - Feb 19 #3. Snidget - Feb 26 #4. AliciaBBrown - March 5 #5. Kircon - March 12 #6. Michel - April 2 #7. Bebo - April 9 (a summary was also written by Spanky) To come:
#8. Spanky - April 16 #9. Vince3 - April 23 #10. BuckeyeGirl - April 30 #11. AnotherKim - May 7 #12. grit - May 14 #13. DeviousWeasel - May 17 Reunion: Estee - May 17

Spanky will still be doing a (real) Episode #8 summary. That's almost punishment enough. Most of the rest of it will come in installments, every time we remind him about this. And we will, we will...He may also be on permanent Recrap Episode Duty. We'll see what his parents say during tomorrow's conference.
