Survivor: Boards.ie - Final Round

    Welcome to the final round of Survivor: Boards.ie!

    This is the last Survivor thread in the present season and the winner will stand to win 25 euros in vouchers. This will consist of 4.50 euros in CD Wow vouchers thanks to OFDM and 20.50 euro worth of vouchers or credit that will be negotiated by the winner and myself. I've upped the prize from my initial 15 euros, and OFDM has upped his vouchers from 50 cents. Thanks OFDM.

    In this thread - all you need to do is vote for the person that YOU WANT TO WIN. The contestants tovalee and mayordenis do not have to take a challenge or write a stupid essay with missing words or stand on their head while gargling water. The rule is - whoever gets the most votes: wins.

    I'm making this poll private unlike the previous few and I'm setting it to close in 5 days time. Please adhere to the rules of boards or you may be disqualified. If you have any questions about this don't hesitate to PM me.

    Good luck to you both! You've done sterlingly to get this far. Mayordenis has kept his head low, won the last vital challenge and forged alliances and tovalee has won many challenges and remained neutral and 'Ghandi'esque in her attitude. Thanks to you and the rest of the contestants I think a fairly large number of boards users have been entertained so 'at the end of the day' you are all winners. Therefore if you come second you will still be a winner in my books.

    And if you believe that, you'll believe anything.

    :D

    Vote well and prosper!

  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,654 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    Well this is it i guess,
    And while its been a laugh it will be bitterly disappointing to lose it all now,
    Saying that i do wish good look upon tovalee.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    You want tovalee to win mayordenis? Is that a forfeit?
    :p


  • Posts: 16,720 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Hmmm. Unsure about my vote.

    How do you both plan to spend the prizes?

    Out of mostly spite I haven't voted since I got kicked out. But I'll have a vote now seeing as it's the final an' all. I rather enjoyed it while it lasted.

    What happens if THIS round ties Gordon?

    Presumably the winner would be the guy who finished third. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,866 ✭✭✭Adam


    Is it too early to apply for the next series Gordon? I would much like to be a contestant :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee


    i can't wait to watch the game from the other side of the fence. I will provoke and poke contestants with pointy sticks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    I think if this round ties then we'll put it to a vote from all past contestants like they did in the one on d'telly I saw. We'll see I guess.

    Sure we can do more Survivors after this if there's interest. There won't be a prize this time unless someone wants to cough up.

    It looks like it will be a close one eh?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    Achooo!

    Dying or surviving: either way the poll will close and the battle will be won.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    and lost.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin

    It's a stealth bump.

    I voted for the Mayor as I like his cool dry wit.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee


    I know that up until now, i've been very neutral in my game strategy.And i've said i didnt want the prize. But it occured to me today that i do infact,want it quite badly. Please vote for me. I will ask Grdon that the prize go here or to a similar organization in the name of the boards.ie community.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,592 ✭✭✭Ro: maaan!


    This is a crazy see-saw of a race! Who will be in the lead next?

    So tovalee does have a dark side! I knew it! OK, let's see some controversy in this final round. :D

    That seems possible except for the CDWow vouchers.

If i win, i will make an additional personal donation in the name of boards.ie to the research of Cystic Fibrosis.help fight 2 diseases with one little click. vote for tovalee!!!!! ;)

    I'm going to ban spammers from After Hours permanently.

    This includes non-commercial spam, PMs and other types of spam. Let's consider it under *Stupidity* for the craic.

    tovalee, I'm looking at you.

    hi, if you were referring tothis post i put in the accessability/mobility/ disablity forum, i apologize, i didnt mean to offend anyone. that is the only forum ,and in fact the only mention of survivor i've put anywhere outside of the thread itsself and only thought it might be an appropriate forum to raise awareness to the fact that I honestly am intending to donate the money to researching genetic diseases. again i apologize for any misunderstanding, i only titled the thread "spamming for a cure" as a sort of tongue in cheek gesture but apparently it was not taken as such. :(


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,654 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    Well until this tovalee i really thought you were a good competitor but this has been silly,
    I could go on to another forum and tell people about the money i've given to charity's but i wont because it is not in very good taste.

    As many a parent has said "i'm not angry, i'm disapointed"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    If my mother or father said that I think I'd be scarred for life. I can handle an angry parent, but not a disappointed one.

    Who knew tovalee could be capable of this?

    yep, just goes to show you, no good deed goes unpunished.

    tovalee, the fact that you advertised what was supposed to be a "good deed" in order to attain votes for yourself in the final pretty much nullifies the idea of this being a "good deed" and leaves it looking like a stunt in order to win the game.
