SIGN UP NOW!!!
Hey guys, I created a Trail Talk Fantasy Survivor League on Yahoo. Don't delay, sign up now!!!

Just go to http://tvgames.yahoo.com/survivor/

After you've registered, chose to join a "private league":

Group #: 109
Password: hike

The way it works is you divy 100 points among how ever many cast members you want. If that person gets booted, you win the amount of points you allocated to him or her. Bonus points are awarded for guessing which team or player wins immunity. Whoever has the most points at the end of the season wins.

I look forward to kicking all your butts!

Well, being the naive person that I am, I assumed that this was not associated with the TV program. My mistake. I will not be participating if that is the case. Excuse me, please.

Well, it's not so much that Survivor sucks, which it does, it's more that I watch little TV and wouldn't be able to keep up.

Dunadan - None of us watch tv - we are much too busy with our meaningful lives (and listening to "All Things Considered").

That being said - Bring on TT Survivor!!!

LOL sassy & tilt!
isn't it enough that we're all addicted to this infernal message board? this is obviously a clever ploy by artex to take advantage of our pathetically addictive personalities and controll us......










besides, if there's no hotties in bikinis, count me OUT.....

OK. Here's my promise to all of you. I will make the picks that will win and you will wonder how I did it. So will I. After I win this rediculous contest, all of you can go back to watching re-runs of Gilligan's Island.

i know, bitpusher, i was totally hoping we could get your butt kicked out of here!! too good to be true, i guess... ;-) i would sign up, but for some reason that's one reality show i've never seen.

I watched about 5 minutes of Big Brother last night. I might have seen a tribal council or two of Survivor.

My favorite "reality" show has always been Road Rules, even if my wife does mock me for watching it, lol....
bitpusher

oh wait, Dunadan's doing it? well maybe i'll have to play after all, just for the chance to beat him.

i pretty much like any reality show you sit me in front of, sadly enough...

Lyra, I thought you were a Southern Belle, not WT.

This year it's guys against girls from the start. The only thing that would make me happier than a new year of Survior would be the return of Survior sucks.com.

Here is a question. Is there any reality in these reality shows?
Dunadan
8:15:15 AM

Did they shut SurvivorSucks down, Sass?
bitpusher

I'll say it again.
TT is my reality show... my computer screen has replaced my TV.

If you believe the theoretical physicists, there's no hard reality anyway, so the networks are guilty of massive marketing fraud selling us these "reality" shows!

bit, if you look for it you'll end up at some "hanky-panky" site "as seen on the Howard Stern show". Same thing last year.

Bummer. I really enjoyed that website. So deliciously ironic.

A big cheer for listening to "All Things Considered!"


What? No Cheer? Where's Pepper? I know she's on my side.

So where am I gonna find out who to pick for the first episode? Who knows the best sites detailing all the irritating character flaws of the survivor nuts?

The season begins this Thursday! If you haven't made your picks yet, you need to soon! :-)

Thanks for the reminder Artex. Screamin' Semen is gonna take it because I'm a fantasy GOD!

Yeah, I know. I have no life.

I've heard the "bit's" on Cbs.com, read the bios and am ready! Birch is holding me back! I may have to ditch him and make all the picks myself. ;)
Sassafras

ohmigosh, i'm so unprepared!! has Survivor even started yet? we're supposed to pick by Thursday, but it looks like the first one of the season is on Thursday...unless i'm missing something, which isn't at all unlikely. do we just make a totally random guess the first time?
lyra

Random or go to CBS.com and look at all the garbage they've got on the new contestants.
Sassafras

okay, cool! i just wanted to be sure it hadn't started yet and you guys didn't have a leg up.
;-)
actually, if this is on at the same time as Jamie Kennedy, there are going to be big probs. hehe!
lyra
7:52:32 AM

Yep, Thursday is the premiere. I'll give you a hint if you're totally clueless as to who to pick for the first week.. the obnoxious, ugly person usually gets voted off first! The meek tend to last a long time, so long as they don't muck up any challenges. :-)
Artex

A few of you still haven't made your picks yet.. don't forget! Just one day left..
Artex

okay, i've made my winning picks. ;-)
and by the way, who the F is "Screamin' Semen"?? LOL!
lyra

Picks, as in more than one? I thought only one person at a time was voted off. I put all 100 on the correct pick, and I've never seen this poor excuse for entertainment.
Dunadan
7:44:24 AM
9/19/02

Yep, you can divy the 100 points among multiple people if you choose.
Artex

Wait a second, how do I make my pics? I've clicked on everything on that page, but I can't figure it out! HELP!

i had a hard time, too! i clicked around for awhile, then noticed an "edit" that you can click on, over on the left-hand-side... then click beside this week.
lyra
8:07:47 AM
9/19/02

well, i made one choice too, Dunadan, but then realized you can split up the points, so i felt i had to do that. i did put 50 pts. on my original choice, though! i'm already severely repelled by him, and i haven't even seen him in action, LOL! i'm not easily entertained by betting either, especially without instant gratification, but the thought of beating you keeps me going.
;-P

Whew, I got it done. I was nervous for a while.

I put most of my points based on my "ratings system" see BB's How to Pick Em' on our group site.

Yeeeeeeehawwww beeeeytch!

I've ditched Birch...I've done the research and selected the most annoying female and male.

I will put all y'all to SHAME! (and I can't even watch the stoopid show because I'll be at work =( )
