"The 20 Best Characters Ever - A Definitive List"
Send in your list of Survivor's 20 best characters by 8/15/05! Read below for more details.

...

Hi everyone.

I would like to compile a list of who we all think are the 20 best Survivor characters ever.

By "best characters", my phrasing is open-ended. Whether it means who's confessionals were most enjoyable, who's gameplay was the best to watch, who's drama/accident/success/downfall was the best to witness, who had the coolest arc, etc. It's your choice. Don't just strictly judge it by how well they played the game or how much you like them... try look at the whole picture. Take into account suspense, entertainment, looks, personality, strength/weakness, ... anything!

So the task is to rank in order the 20 who you think were Survivor's best characters. Feel free to include any reasons for your picks, or any in-depth analyses on particular people as you see fit - but they are optional.

This is to be a private survey... PM me your lists by 8/15/05. Then post below to indicate that you have PM'ed me. Any Top 20 lists posted below will not be counted.

The lists I have by the deadline will then be tabulated, and I will then countdown the top 20 characters with an in-depth look at all of them and reasons why you guys picked them for that overall ranking.

Get your lists in!

I know Scout was one of the worse (if not the worse) in the challenges ever, but if you compare her to the other old hags that have been in the game (Kim J, Granny Jan, Sonja, Maddog, and all the others), she was the only one NOT to just let the others use her and actually tried to win the game. Shouldn't she at least be number 18 or 19 and not number 1...Just a thought...

So far the stats are looking pretty close.

There's also a chance I may extend the deadline to get more votes in, to make the data a bit more meaningful ... and not just base it on like 10 people's opinions... we'll see.


In my job, I now get to utilize all the BS-ing skills that I've accumulated in the past 9 weeks to write a paper the size of a phonebook. Be jealous.

Oh big deal. So the Lawyers defeated a pansy with a bruised ankle, a metrosexual triathalon coach, and a guy who decided to cook himself in a fire.

Though Deena finally did get her rematch against Alex.

It went rather well. Now though my last obstacle is writing a massive scientific paper pretending that what I did was actually important and that I actually did independent research...

I repeat: can't wait to be done and can't wait to switch my major when I get back!

I know how that goes. I had to write a research paper that was supposed to be based off two months of research I didn't do. Instead of doing said research, I spent two months playing Yahoo pool and IMing people. And I watched a lot of Conan reruns on Comedy Central.
Needless to say, that paper was the biggest pile of BS ever written.

Good luck.

Seriously, I can't even remember the last time my standards for myself have been THIS low. But I guess the best part about aiming low is that I can still feel like a loser when I fail to even meet those standards.

The best thing for you about this whole experience is that you know you definitely don't want to do it as a career and that you've only spent a few months figuring that out, rather than a few years.
And are some more people going to make lists for this thread or not??

Yeah if you want, Incog, if other people wouldn't mind, you could post up who actually voted for who in this. Because we don't seem to remember. It would be quite funny if you asked us all to write another top 20 list now, how much it has changed in the last month.

I'm not sure who my #1 would have been either. But knowing it was a month ago, about when TAR7 finished here, I'll say it was probably Amber. And Rob M would have been in the top 5 somewhere even though I don't really like him.
Oh derr I just kicked myself. #1 would have been Colby of course. Amber would have been #2.

I've gotten a lot of lists, but I want more so that it's a good overall assessment of all of our opinions.

I'm extending the deadline - you can PM me your lists til September 1st. That way we can still get the Top 20 countdown in before S11 Guatemala starts, and I'll have a more stable non-dialup internet connection to post the stuff up.
