    Hi I'm currently taking part in the Survivor Boards contest here:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=241965&page=1

    Considering at one stage the contestant powerhousedan was on 5 votes and I was on 14 it truly would be the great escape if I was to survive this round but if I'm going out I want to go out fighting so I'd appreciate it if you would vote for powerhousedan. I don't know if the other contestants have bothered to campaign for your vote but if they haven't I'd really like it if you could vote for powerhousedan.

    Cheers. ;)

    Considering that this was an unsolicited PM and I hadn't got a clue about this tread or the competition... I will now be voting for YOU because of this crap you sent me via PM. Don't ever do that again.

    Mr. Nice Guy:

    No one has set up extra accounts to bad mouth you. The fact that you tried to lead people to believe that it was is just another one of your dirty tactics.
    This guy is using every dirty trick possible.

    VOTE OFF MR NICE GUY!!!

    powerhousedan, it's obvious this is you. You have only two posts and they criticise me and there is no user profile I see. You have used very low tactics and you deserve to be eliminated.

    THIS IS NOT POWERHOUSE DAN

    Don't listen to him.

    This was good,sorry dan but it looks like your gone mate.Congrats to other survivors.

    Well that was scintillating!

    The poll is now closed, unfortunately for powerhousedan - all avenues of surviving have been closed.

    It was of great enjoyment to me personally and unfortunately took some posters offence but hopefully we are all alive and well. OFDM I hope you are enjoying this from prison there!

    As I have said - I'm not disqualifying Mr. Nice Guy as I don't feel that the Survivor rules have been broken. I was thinking that the vote may be mod rigged but unfortunately that didn't happen :p

    powerhousedan, sorry man, there was very little in it initially, if it wasn't you having this battle it would have been one of the other contenders. You showed great promise but unfortunately for you Mr. Nice Guy was just too sneaky for you! He must have a death wish.

    Now, moving on, may I remind the remaining contestants that round 6 will be starting in just under 2 hours at 19:06 Irish time - read here to refresh your memory:

    I dont agree with that you said at all. OFDM even agrees if you see his post in the prison forum. I would prefer to lose than to pisss board users off.
    I will leave with three words
    BRING OFDM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I AM A SURVIVOR! Justice has been done as my tactics were being used against me as well as some other dirty stuff but I managed to come through it all thanks to my supporters who helped me out. Thank you to the people who voted for powerhousedan at my request.

    Reasons why I am the best contestant? How about this:

    1. I kept quiet in the earlier rounds.

    2. I sent each of my fellow contestants a PM asking them to form an alliance with me although only one was interested. Who is that person? Out of respect for the alliance I won't divulge that person's identity. ;)

    3. In round 4 I was in the lead to be voted off until I came up with a humourous "final plea" to stay in where I mocked the other contestants. The result? ro:maaan was sent on his way.

    4. In this round I was behind by a massive amount in comparison to powerhousedan who had 5 votes while I was on 14. If you check out this thread from round 6, Gordon and powerhousedan are making plans for the next round as if my dismissal was a foregone conclusion! :

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=242368&page=1&pp=20

    5. In a last desperate attempt I tried to garner support from Boards members for me so that they would vote off powerhousedan.

    6. I survived attempts by powerhousedan who asked Boards members to vote me off (even though he said these tactics were low he still did them himself anyway!)

    7. I now have a secret alliance with one of the other contestants and am looking forward to the next round with the intention of surviving after my agonising survival this round!


    I have played this game the best all the way through and I would hope even powerhousedan would be man enough to acknowledge that. What I will say about powerhousedan is this:

    He brought the fight to me and didn't lie down. The other contestants are nowhere near as good as he is which is why my ally and I sought to have him eliminated. It was a good fight powerhousedan but the better man won.

    Nice guys finish last. Remember that my fellow contestants. ;)

    Heh, well done MNG!

    BRING OFDM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
    OFDM also said
    First I'd like to thank Gordon for taking over Boards Survivor - he's doing a much better job than I was.
    (I don't believe this to be true incidentally)
    But if you are taking OFDMs thinking on this then logic dictates that you should accept that my judgement is correct powerhousedan.

    Fair play MNG. Personally, I cant see why people are taking so much offence to 'unsolicited' pms :rolleyes: but I suppose some people just love to moan.

    Thanks gimmick. Some people weren't very happy but others were more than happy to help and I came across some very decent people who agreed to help me so that alone has made the contest worth it for me.

    Thanks Gordon for congratulating me. I actually think you handled the last round very well.

    Come on powerhousedan give credit where it's due. I gave you glowing praise in the last few lines of my previous post and there's no hard feelings on my part. ;)

    Glad to hear that you don't have any objection to those of us who don't care/know about this contest receiving spam from contestants. It seems people get banned from the "Shop" fora for less....
