Survivor: Boards.ie - Round 5

Gordon

Boards Survivor is back!

Ro: maaan! has been evicted from the Survivor island, hard luck maaan. And as a strange turn of events our Survivormeister OFDM has also been evicted, from boards no less. See the Prison forum for more details. Therefore, I have been passed the buck... I mean torch, and I am continuing the proceedings hereonin etc.

The standings are: Nobody has immunity in this round, all contestants are available for being eliminated in the poll above. Please note that this poll is now a public poll which means that everyone can see exactly who votes for who. I thought this might add a bit of spice to the event, and also check up on any possible vote riggers (/me looks at a certain survivor contestant ).

I have PMd the latest task for contestant immunity. The first person to post up a picture (or url) of a specific person will gain immunity from eviction for round 6. The clues to the person lie in a cryptic message. (well it's not that cryptic, it could be very easy, I have no idea).

Good luck everybody, you have 48 hours.

Eh, I havent been following this at all... wtf is goin' on?

tovalee

tovalee

lady olave

funky penguin

Holy Sh1t your fast.

On a side note Gordon, is tba now the latest contsetant...........?

Gordon

Bravo tovalee! Olave Soames is the mystery woman. Glad to see it was a bit tricky.

tovalee, for the second time, you have immunity in the next round, Round 6! I was expecting one of these pictures http://www.abarroso.pages.iron.com.br/historia/olave_01.jpg so I didn't recognise her at first.

For anyone wanting to know the challenge:
His first cryptic name is EaMy
His second is a musical Plant
One would bathe his third in German
His last namesake would be the state of an old secretary.

The man in question was Sir Robert Baden Powell.

Well done!

Gordon

funky penguin, I posted a small challenge on the last thread for anyone wishing to join and nobody took me up on it (except WWM!) so I didn't add to the contestants.

I just noticed now that tba has posted on the previous thread.
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=2570821&postcount=67

I'll add him in to the next running.

Interesting voting going on btw, looks like a bit of ganging up happening

mayordenis

Tovalee

i dont understand . . . .
so dont vote for me . . . .
thanks

funky penguin

Yah, well done tovalee.

tovalee

thanks

Gordon

In case the answers weren't obvious for Sir Robert Baden Powell:
His first cryptic name is EaMy (Use the previous cryptic round to decipher this)
His second is a musical Plant (Robert Plant is the lead singer in Led Zeppelin...)
One would bathe his third in German (Bathe translated via German online translators gives Baden)
His last namesake would be the state of an old secretary. (ex Secretary of State of USA namesake: Colin Powell)

funky penguin

So simple, so ingenious, so filthy gorgeous. I like it.

Seriously, I'm kicking myself on those answers, which I suppose is the sign of a good cryptic.

Gordon

OK I've got an idea for the next round and you're going to hate me for it (I hope).

I'm posting now to give you all fair warning. I will be also PM'ing you tomorrow to warn you again, and I'll post up the challenge tomorrow as well. But the next challenge does not actually start until a minute after this poll closes. 06-04-2005 at 19:06

It is very important that you all know the rules of the next challenge before this poll closes as I you may be kicked off Survivor for it.

When this poll closes you must not post on boards.ie unless you know the rules of the next challenge


A clue for you curious people:
It will be an endurance round that solely involves posting on boards. (It will not involve spamming or acts that will get you banned*). But I can guarantee it will be extremely annoying for you. And it won't be a private task like before, the general boardsies will be able to help out if they wish.



*well I hope not...

sounds like fun gordon. Looking forward to it

What does that have to do with the woman though?

Gordon

Duh, sorry, I didn't post that part up on this thread, I only pm'd it to the contestants.

They had to post a picture or url of the wife of the cryptic clue guy - Sir Robert Baden Powell.

Mr.Nice Guy

Tovalee

Why am I yet again in the lead to be voted off? I have given the people of Boards a video of a monkey beating up two lions, an African American lady beating up her boyfriend and much recently this Langerland cartoon:

http://www.langerland.com/cartoons/brits.html

What have the other contestants given you? Nothing useful.Here's a few home truths about my fellow contestants:

funky penguin - funky penguin is a closet feminazi who believes all men are pigs. She advocates that all men who like sex before marriage be castrated!

powerhousedan - powerhousedan slagged your ma.

Tovalee - Tovalee tried to get St.Patrick's Day banned so that it would be replaced by a day honouring Crazy Frog. That ain't patriotism. That ain't right.

Mayordenis - Mayordenis is responsible for getting Quantam Leap cancelled.

Mr. Nice Guy belongs in this competition. The others are an absolute disgrace. Keep in Mr.Nice Guy by voting out the others!

Let the Nice Guy finish first for once.

ermmm who will get my vote. think it might have to by Mr Nice guy considering you voted for me and all

I summed things up nicely.I just need the people to believe in the nice guy. Without me this contest would be dull...more so.

Cheers for the support, Caesar.I'm doing it for the fans.

Tovalee

All right nice guy . .
enough
As a mayor i think its safe to say public polls are somewhat of a speciality of mine.

I dont claim to be able to lower taxs but anyone who does vote for me will definately end up on the wrong end of a spamming.
I havent seen the pictures of those im against but i can only assume that i am the most attractive in the bunch.

Cant really see why anybody would let any of these chumps win out over me an absolute disgrace.

Thanks you boardsies,
Denis.

tovalee

But im doing it for the LOVE OF THE GAME. You cant vote me out. Im out here,sweating these challenges, forsaking all social life ,not for money or glory but because i love the thrill of competition,the chance to work the grey matter. So keep me in.. please. ..your turn funky.....

funky penguin

Hmmm, its interesting to see the public vote has caused a low turn out, and hence tightened the gap.

I entered for the chance to be given abuse by those who wish they were playing.

And, next round will be personal now my bruv is taking part.

mayordenis

Tovalee

you see tovalee you need the immunity thats why i let you have it. . .
my position is safe and i pretty much have this competition wrapped up.

Gordon

Something tells me that your tactics aren't working Mr. Nice Guy!

Well, it looks like I'm gone unless loads of Boards members decide to vote for powerhousedan. I can't believe people would rather see me eliminated when I am the funniest guy in the contest and frequently post entertaining and humourous threads. Consider this my final plea to turn my situation around. I give you the five reasons why you should vote out powerhousedan instead of me:

1. If you vote out powerhousedan it would be the biggest most shocking turnaround in the Survivor contest so far!

2.powerhousedan thinks you're too scared to vote him out.

3. powerhousedan hates The Simpsons and says if you ever laughed at something Homer Simpson did, then you are a loser.

4. powerhousedan supports the reintroduction of the monarchy into Ireland.

5. powerhousedan insults your ma, wants to beat up your da, sleep with your sister and slap YOU across the face with a giant piece of salmon. Are you gonna stand for that?

Vote his whisker biscuit monkey a*s outta here!

Mr.Nice Guy

Tovalee

I need 9 more votes for powerhousedan if I am to survive. If powerhousedan goes, I will post on Boards the funniest clip you have EVER seen.

This clip will leave you in stitches. But you must keep me in first.

Its just a bad state of affairs when you have to ask people from UCD to vote for me.

Hey UCD may be a sh*te place but the people are OK and have votes just like everyone else. I'm onto your evil tactics powerhousedanniella. Lying low and hoping you can just coast through. You are too dull just like the contestants on that fourth series of Big Brother. I wouldn't be surprised if you are really from the Orkney islands and your name is Cameron.

Lump

mayordenis

I voted for Mr. Nice Guy, purely for the fact that he sent me a pm asking that I vote some one else off.

John

OfflerCrocGod

Tovalee

I don't care he sent me a PM asking to vote for someone, because my time is worthless and therefore I voted as he asked Lump must have better things to do

with regards to Mr.Nice guy with the other people in this round
i post a message from Mr.Nice guy to try and vote ye guys out but i decided to ignore it.

Yeah, it's called playing the game the right way and it's exactly why I belong in the game more than you powerhousedan!

Lump, the fact that I value your vote means I care more than the others. Cheers for voting for powerhousedan, OfflerCrocGod. I am playing this game the best and it would be a shame if I am voted off. There's still time for me to survive if powerhousedan gets more votes.

It was something like 5 votes for powerhousedan and 14 for me not too long ago but the gap is closing. If I survived it would be remarkable!

PowerHouseDan

mayordenis

I not even going to have this convo with you ya swear your life depended on it and if it does. i will say a pray for ya.Good luck and let the best man win.

Gordon

Asking people to vote for you isn't against the rules. Spamming Pms tho.. hmmm

Mr. Nice guy needs a third of his votes to go to powerhousedan, it looks very unlikely but with a little canvassing may be possible.

Just remember though, you've got under 24 hours, more like 19 if my time difference is not wrong.

Gordon

Crikey it was 16-11 when I posted that, now it's 17-14.

Mr.Nice Guy

Tovalee

powerhousedan, I feel I've played the best game all through. Here's why:

1)I've actually asked people for votes which no one has bothered to do.

2) I have used humour to my advantage as opposed to others who have just sat back and kept quiet ie you powerhousedan (I notice you are keeping your head low yet again judging by your post above ^ )

3) In a very sneaky move, I did indeed try and forge alliances with my fellow contestants and each one was sent a message whcih asked them to forge an alliance and keep it secret. Did anyone agree to a pact? I'm saying nothing.

Overall, I have played this game the best, right the way through and everyone else is just stayin quiet and trying to coast through just like those guys on Big Brother. You might as well call powerhousedan Shell.

It will truly be amiracle if you go powerhousedan and I stay but if I am to go out of this competition I'm going out fighting.

Wow someone's getting very personal. The gap has closed significantly. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to those who have voted for powerhousedan to keep me in. If I manage to survive it would truly be the great escape considering not too long ago powerhousedan had 5 votes and I had 14!

I will personally thank each person that votes for powerhousedan.

PowerHouseDan

For people who mrniceguy who hasnt pm which is not alot :P because clearly he doesnt have a life which you would almost feel sorry for him vote for me. At the end of the day i've been a board member longer which counts for alot:P i am not going to be desperate and pm ppl.

Insult me if you must but leave the people out of this. So much for you playing the game fairly and having "the best man win". Clearly my supporters and I have you rattled because if I were to survive it would be the biggest shock in this Survivor Contest.

At one stage it was powerhousedan 5, Mr Nice Guy 14

Now as I write it's powerhousedan 19, Mr Nice Guy 17.

Keep voting for powerhousedan please to cement the greatest shock in Survivor history. As I said I will personally thank the people who vote out powerhousedan.
