That's just silly. Wizard of Oz would be better:


Smith = The Scarecrow, talks a lot but no substance
Sandercock = Cowardly Lion on account of bleating already about KR's opening fixtures and his concerns
Clinton = The Tin Man - big barrel chest but no heart
Guest appearances by Clint Newton as Dorothy (shefellover in the poppy field and ultimately there's no place like home)
Justin Morgan = Toto (Newton's lapdog)
Hudgell = Oompa Loompa

That just leaves the Wicked Witch of the West to cast. Oh, go on then.

I've always wanted to be a flying monkey thing.

They were badass. Still a bit scared of them now.

Nil out of three, Darth, me old son. Just blokey boring, end of.

Lets look at the facts of the last three gamesBetting. Bloke orientated and boring. The blokes got us out of the mire whilst us ladies examined our nails.

Stupid blokey electronic game. X-Box and PlayStaion-like. Mind-numbingly boring for girls, but I still provided sufficiently good scores to get though, proving that us girls may have distaste for a thing but can apply themselves to most things regardless.

NFL Predictions Bloke-orientated and reminiscent of the betting task. Applied 15 minutes of female logic to win by five, proving above point again.

Films are also things blokes tend to rave about rather than girls. Doesn't mean we don't like them or appreciate them, just don't go on and on about them or attend seminars dedicated to them trembling naked under Vader costumes.

I just think my suggestions hold broader appeal to the averagely intelligent person, but thanks for your input. And you were so very nice about my World Cup song too

The task itself is a MacGuffin really. That's why I chose something that I thought would not take long (not to mention be seasonal). It'll be like the snotblock thing all over again. The Poms'll spend hours doing something brilliant on MS-Paint or researching Hollywood's great Oscar near misses, while Sean is busy making sure he gets the Aussie vote out.

How about...?

Write the opening sentence to your own novel.

This thread is starting to make me cry a little.

Go on, Sandra. Suggest a task. A Team one for the last. Alive versus Dead teams.

What idea got binned?

What's wrong with the Christmas task? Also the write the start of your novel challenge would be boring as .

Well maybe not binned but certainly not taken up.

A task with forum votes is the way to go.

The most fun we had was when we'd throw four or so names up for eviction and have a forum wide vote. Sometimes we'd get 200 votes as the people up for eviction would PM everyone they knew on every forum, or even just start a thread in the 'fun' forum calling on people to vote against others.

I enjoyed this 'civilized' version of survivor as a game, but it is a lot more fun when it's thrown open for people to con and cheat their way to victory, not that they do, because you make a lot more enemies than friends when you con and cheat in the early rounds.
