Damfino

Welcome to the DVDTalk Survivor Game no. 20 for the Fall 2018 season!

The season premiere is Sept. 26 and this time it's David vs. Goliath





The jist of the game: For an entry fee of just $5, everyone chooses one Survivor to latch on to before the reunion show. That is your guy. You root for that Survivor. If that Survivor ends up going all the way, then YOU will win a $100 Amazon.com gift certificate. 100% of the entry fees will go to the prize fund.

This season will once again be winner take all!

General rules:

This will be the contest thread for the entire season.

We will be using the first to post method on draft night (Tuesday Sept 25, 9 PM EDT, 6 PM PDT). You may post 1 and only 1 name during the draft. This is strictly first-come-first-serve. Anybody posting a list will only have rights to the first name in the post. If that name has already been taken, you will need to post again.

This season's 20 Survivors are...

David Tribe:
Bi Nguyen
Carl
Christian
Davie
Elizabeth
Gabby
Jessica
Lyrsa
Nick
Pat

Goliath Tribe:
Alec
Alison
Angelina
Dan
Jeremy
John
Kara
Mike
Natalia
Natalie

Post now if you want to play and I will contact you with my PayPal information by PM.

All payments must be made via PayPal by 3 AM EDT Monday Sept 24. If you haven't paid by then, your spot may be released to another player.

Bopper Rule: If for whatever reason, an announced Survivor contestant that you drafted is replaced by a substitute during the show, you will get the substitute in place of your original pick.

Please do not edit or delete posts during the draft, if your pick has already been taken or you were too early, you will need to post again. Screen captures will be taken during the draft and anyone caught deleting or editing a post will be given the last pick (AKA the Quack play) as a penalty. This rule will be strictly enforced.

The Borg are not a species.

Love Connection is a game show.

Please, please, please! Include your DVDTalk screen name in a comment with your PayPal payment! This is necessary so that I can match people up with their payments. Also, please use the "Send money to a friend" option as this will avoid seller fees.

If the contest doesn't sell out and an unclaimed Survivor wins, the prize will go to whoever has the highest finisher.

The draft will be held Tuesday, Sept 25 at 9 PM Eastern (6 PM Pacific). The DVDTalk timestamp of your post determines validity. If you are too early, you will need to post again.

A second draft will be held a half hour later if the game doesn't sell out and anybody is interested in drafting another player.

Good Luck!

Draft night advisory:

Forum rules require posts be at least 3 characters. This means that if you want to draft Bi, enter her full name or just Nguyen will do.

Please note that we have a Natalie and a Natalia this season. I am generally not a stickler for spelling on draft night, but for these 2 make sure you are using the right spelling.

dino88

I'm in... and payment sent

gryffinmaster

Hey, guys! I'm in.

Goldberg74

I'm gonna sit this round out... I'll be traveling during the draft and have a busier teaching load this semester so I'm gonna watching this show delayed on either OnDemand or DVR.

Enjoy!

I'll be back in the Spring.

Damfino

Above are in (except Goldberg74) and payment info sent.

I neglected to update the hall of fame, so I posted an update to the first post.

Cusm

I'll take a spot if it is available.

chowderhead

Yes, please add me if there is a spot.

Cusm

Payment sent. Now I guess I get the D20 out and figure out my contestant choice.

Damfino

You’re in and payment received.

Damfino

Gotcha, and it’s always great to have new players.

JuryDuty

I'm in, of course! Sending cash now.

And I'll take a second pick on draft night if we're short.

EDIT: Wow, you know you've played a lot of DVDTalk games when Damfino appears at the top of your "Pay by PayPal" list...

gryffinmaster

Same here.

Damfino

I hadn’t thought of that since I don’t send money to myself. But I have gotten to where I recognize people’s real names when I get the “you’ve got money” emails.

Quack

Add me back in please!

Quack

Payment sent!

Damfino

Got it, and you’re in!

8 spots are still available.

Silly Burrito

Here for my semi-annual $5 donation.

And wow, we've had 20 of these? Makes my round 5 win seem so, so far away.

Just did the math, and we have five two-time winners: Damfino, Davidh777, JuryDuty, Navinabob, and Quack. And our Sandra winner, lwhy? with 3 wins.

Now I want to be a two-time winner.
