I’ve been asked what my screen resolution is, because apparently someone who knows more about computer graphics than I do thinks it might make a difference.
1280x800.
Color quality: Highest (32 bit)
DPI setting: Normal size (96 DPI)
Anything else? |

MC Banhammer Posted: It can affect text flow, and the position of elements on the page. On my laptop (at 1024x768) some of the things in the collage don’t line up in quite the same way, or there might be a line break in the middle of text that you screencapped as being all on one line. No biggie.
Edit: not that I was the one who asked, but it seems I was thinking the same things. man-man edited this message on 04/02/2010 5:39PM |

I’d been sort of dreading the scoring process until I realized how I can easily do it and let you know which answers were right and which were wrong: The Win/Fail voting bumons on the post!
So when I come in to score things, I’ll be using those. Win = correct, Fail = Incorrect, no action = ignored (edited posts).
Don’t vote on them yourselves, please, so I can ease my judging. |

I suggest you keep an independent record of your marking/scoring… yknow, rather than leaving it to trust that no-one would try to interfere. |

I don’t see why you’d want to interfere now that I’ve told you that that’s how you’re going to know which are right and which are wrong. Mess up my scoring and we’ll see how long it takes me to let you know Log in to see images! |

Apparently some of you players are not familiar enough with the real Survivor game to know the following rule. So let me post it here so there’s no question:
You CANNOT vote for yourself.
Facepalming may now commence. |

Me too. Although I’m beginning to think I may need an editor, keeping the blog straight has become quite challenging (and time-consuming).
Incidentally, when I make announcements like this one, don’t think the timing means anything. I intentionally delay such announcements so it’s not obvious who I’m talking about. |

Here’s another one:
At NO TIME may you use BP to try to buy an advantage for your tribe or for yourself (or a disadvantage from competition). I don’t like games where the people who have real money have an advantage over those who don’t. The real survivors could be a millionaire and a pauper, but on the island they’re all equals. |

Pencils DOWN!
Yes, you in the front, I’m talking to you. Pencils down. And posts made after the deadline will be ignored, but any posts EDITED after the deadline will cost you 5 points. Damn dirty cheaters. |

The results are in!
I expect to hear some flack for this, but the controversial issues all fall solidly under “some very misleading ones — be careful!” Please keep all flack to the tribe forums, as I’m going to be posting the challenge for public play and don’t want the arguments publicized. You will see that even though you may disagree with my call, once you hear my ineffable logic you will have no choice but to see that this decision is correct. It was CLOSE. We ALMOST had to go to the tie-breaker. And if we did, the first tiebreker would have favored Two Girls One Tribe (with zero edited posts as compared to 3 in TribeGirl). The second tiebreaker would have been tough to call so I don’t want to go through it. The third tiebreaker would have gone to TribeGirl because in addition to their descriptions, they actually took the trouble to provide screenshots of the URLs and box off the correct portions, and you don’t get more descriptive than that! With a final score of 13 (19 correct, 3 incorrect or duplicates) vs. 12 (20 correct, 4 incorrect or duplicates), the winning tribe is: Two Girls One Tribe! TribeGirl, I’ll see you at tribal council at 3pm (or sooner). As for the “little something special for the player on the winning tribe who gets the highest individual score”. That was spacekadt, with a total of SEVEN. Great job all around, honestly. I wish I was able to keep this challenge to 24 hours as I originally hoped — many of the pieces weren’t found until well after that. |

Would any viewers like to go behind-the-scenes and write up the episodes? I got kind of backed up when I was suddenly unavailable for a week, and wound up writing Episode 2 twice, and now it’s kind of daunting to edit it nicely and proceed.
The job pays absolutely nothing, but you get to see what I share from the tribe forums and private conversations I’m provided with. You’d use these tidbits to formulate a nicely-flowing story for the viewers, and could even suggest tribal council questions for me to ask. You’d also be involved in resolving any disputes about the game itself, at least to some extent.
In addition you get to see the next challenge or two before-hand (and I’d ask that you help look for potential problems).
Of course anyone interested would have to be approved by all remaining players before they could join. And you’d have to leave you klan for the duration of the game if you’re chosen. And you’d have to maintain absolutely secrecy. |
