Sorry folks, busy weekend - I shall tot up the scores this evening.

No need to Sean18's out, that's all that matters.

That was a tad tedious.

However it did prove that it was not a sexist task, as the only XX that competed led the field.

Worminhand - 22.
Sean18 - 17
Tom155 - 14
Chicken Hunter - 12
Barham Red - 8
dum-dum, roopy, sandra - 7.
Barista - dns (cnba, presumably).

So that leaves the 3 gents on 7, looking to take the last place in the final. I'll just double check the scores for you 3. If it is still tied, I'm going to expand the bonus point thing to 4, then 5 and so on, until the tie is broken. If it gets beyond 6, you're all dead.

It wasn't sexist, just inclined to appeal to boys' natures rather than girls', and tedious. Didn't realize the vote was imminent or would have gone for the Paint thing, as you know.

Easy, too. Just a matter of seeing which team had won the most matches out of each scheduled game and putting them to win. If the teams' victories were fairly even, pick the Home side. The stupid game tends to score in multiples of 7, it would appear, so used that as a rough guide to margins. Took about 10 minutes of logical thought.

Still. As Marfa says, they got beat by girls, they got beat by girls.

You did all get 7.
You each got within 4 points for 1 game (dum-dum - the Texans, Sandra - your avian friends the Ravens and roopy - the Saints). Sandra wins it on the second tie-break, getting within 5 on the 49ers and Jets.

So the final 6 are Wormy, Sean, Tom, Chicken Hunter, Barham and Sandra.

Details of the final task, which will decide the who is our Survivor champion, will be posted tomorrow morning.

Still waiting for evidence of Chicken Hunter voicing anything other than a home win, the +7 was seemingly manufactured.

Also, I had it that I got 7 games right and one within 3pts, I don't understand your sums to make my score only 7? If the bonus are just in event of a tie, How did WiH get 22 with just 14 games.

I've not checked other people's predictions but you've added mine up incorrectly.

He never posted on the forum ....
This game is sooooo bent!

What happened to players being resurrected ?

He was off to Thailand, before the details of the task were released. Generously, I gave him an arbitrary margin for each game.
Which game did you get within three points? I checked twice and didn't see it. If I've made a mistake, I'll rectify it.



That was the stick baseball game - none of the 'dead' posted a legit score. iirc, you said the 'new' scorecard that dum-dum posted for either you or Mrs B, was Mrs B's.



You may doubt my integrity, but you will respect my prideofeasthull survivor game umpire authoritah!

Thanks for the game MR.
Good luck to Sean, Tom and CH in the final.
It's been a good way to pass the time for a bit of the off season.

Sandra should run the next one - it wouldn't be very fair, but it would be a lot of fun watching him get himself into tangles.

Thanks billy for everything you've done!

Bye dum-dum

No I do not moan and believe me I come across stuff that would make the average person moan!....I am not shy at complaining though when some-thing is wrong or the goalposts have been moved.

Final task...

Christmas - the midwinter festival adopted by Christians as a convenient time to celebrate the birth of Jesus, adopted in turn by corporations as a focus for mindless consumerism, gluttony and unsustainable levels of personal indebtedness. Dystopian capitalist nightmare - I daresay there's an app for that.
