Survivor Contest - Pick the winner - NO SPOILERS

LAst season was fun and the winner is enjoying her very cool t-shirt. I asked a few weeks ago how people wanted to runt he contest and a majority wanted to pick before the first show. I agree and like the idea of picking off the pictures on the cbs website. This season I will leave the contest open until the survivors run out or the start of the second episode (8:00 Thursday EST).

So everyone who wants to play, pick out a survivor. Whoever's survivor pick makes it the furthest in the game wins the prize. Each survivor can only be picked by one person, so make the name the subject of you post. First person to post a survivors name gets that survivor.

I plan to pick up another T-shirt as a prize. The cbs store always puts the old t-shirts from last season on sale very cheap. I will see what I can get but no promises.

I'll wait til Monday to make my pick to give others a chance. You don't have to pick now though, I will leave it open until next Thursday. There is is that the person you want will be chosen by someone else. So if you want someone badly, take that person right away. No switching or trading later. One pick per person. Have fun.

ALSO - Please NO SPOILERS in this thread. I don;t want anyone saying they know what happens. I don;t want to know what happens. I just want to pick someone to win and watch the show. Thanks.

With Dan's credentials he looks like he would be considered a major threat by the others if they find out and voted off ASAP but I'll go with him anyway.

...Misty Giles. :thumbsup:

:thumbsdown:

Sorry

Hard to judge just from the bios but I'll give this guy a shot.

Thanks for forming this new contest.

Last time I picked the young Brian. this year I think I will go with experience. I was leaning toward Dan Barry, Cerie Fields and Terry Deitz. Since the astronaut is out, I'm going with the former navy pilot. Though I think Cerie is a great pick and someone should grab her soon.

don't know why, and Terry is taken (I think he's the best bet, if the others aren't smart enough to kick his butt off the island)

Not a good sign

She likes to swim and fish, which can't hurt if you're on an island!

For no reason other than I didn't see her on my list earlier.

First pick and she is out. However, the contest is still open until Thursday, so you can try another in my book. I don't mind. This is not a very serious contest, so I don't think anyone will protest. Why not take advantage of the rules that the contest is still open until the start of the second episode on the east coast and pick another survivor.

Farewell to Tina. Who used to work about 20 miles from here lumberjackin.

My pick lost the first challenge!

Maybe next year.

Lets see how the season goes.

Drinking that wine pissed off too many people. He may have stayed. He never really seemed to play the game though.

When I saw how lazy he was. Oh well, good luck to all those still in the running.

lpbk2713, you made the first pick, and it was the pick I would hav emade if you did not. Dan was a great player. If they would have gotten some food, I think they would have done far better. Dan was startign to look sickly for the lack of food.

HE joins the ranks of my all time favorites. Good bye to a classy guy.

Bad playing. I thought the immunity idol should have been used last night to oust shane.

I took the liberty of making up a list of who is still in the running for the t-shirt.

Bruce...MaineDem
Terry...dr.strangelove
Danielle...Patiod
Cirie...Suich
Aras...ernstbass

I wish they would get rid of Shane. I can't figure out why he's still there. Terry is looking the strongest. If he uses the idol he found on Exile Isle, they "re-hide" it. (Read that in TV Guide!)

no way he pulls off three more wins in ICs. I think Aras and Cirie are the final 2. I bet she turns on the other girls. Plus I think Aras secretly hates Shane. I think Aras has this thing locked up, I bet the other girls want to turn on him and Cirie Shane and Aras off them.

I hate seeing players have to leave due to illness. I will always wonder what would have happened had Michael not fallen into the fire. His tribe may have gone into the merge up 6-4 and then Colby and Tina would not have been in it.

Here it has less of an impact since Bruce appeared to be the next one to go, but who knows what would have happened.


As for DU Survivor, here is what is left:
Terry...dr.strangelove
Danielle...Patiod
Cirie...Suich
Aras...ernstbass

I don't think I have much of a chance, no way Terry wins out immunity. I think it is Daniell and Aras' game to lose. Cirie is in that group, but I suspect Ara and Danielle would stick together over her. I have a feeling there is a spark between those two.

I hate Shane and hope he goes next.

I only watch the second half of the show this season, since my SO tapes "Smallville" on our other TV, and I watch "Everybody Hates Chris" at eight.

I've watched some seasons religiously, and missed others (Africa) entirely.

Is this the most bizarre group they've ever had left?

Cirie, who has no survival/outdoorsy tendancies whatsoever
Bruce the "sensei"
The fire-dancer chick
and Shane, whose neuroses defy description.

Terry, Aras and Danielle seem relatively normal in comparison.

I was wondering, from the previews, who got sick.

It'll be interesting from here on out. I can't imagine Shane lasting much longer.

showed he is soon to go.

ernstbass. Congrats to you and Aras. Your cool T-shirt will be on the way this weekend.

I had picked Cirie but Aras did much better on the challenges.

:hi:

I was just able to finally watch the finale last night (although I did find out who won earlier). :woohoo: I was rooting for Aras towards the end.

And congrats to ernstbass for winning.
