This game is starting already? Really? When is All Stars gonna end? And what joke did Taylor use that I've already used? That Jia is Zoe Reincarnated? If so, that's a GREAT joke! I bestow it upon everyone.
But yeah, everyone go right ahead and start making your picks for who you think will comprise this season's final four, who will be your dark horse, and who you think will ultimately become the sole iSurv1vor. Jia, you can even participate too. Anyone else wanting to take part, you best let me know pronto.
Rules with picking:
1. Your final four can be any four people from the cast. 2. Your dark horse must be somebody different from everyone in your final four. This is the person you think is most likely to win outside of your final four. 3. Your sole iSurv1vor must be somebody included in your final four.
Everyone start posting your picks here, and try to get them in ASAP. I'm going to Oxford University next Saturday and I'd prefer not to be playing around in Paint all day whilst the bobbies are strolling in the gardens outside my "dormitry" and the fish-and-chips are hot on the stove. Or cold on the counter. However fish-and-chips are served.
In summation: get your picks in by Wednesday.

Yeah, just as a clarification there won't be any "first one out" pick this time. Feel free to make your own wonderful prediction about who will be the first one out, but alas you will not be numerically rewarded for it in points or anything. Sorry for everyone who was banking some points on Jose to be the first one out.
And as far as the "powerPLAY," here's what I got on that:
During any round of the game, you can opt to implement your powerPLAY during the next round for a chance at some bonus points. But be careful: fail in your powerPLAY and you will have points deducted. Basically, if you feel really confident that everyone remaining in your Final Four will survive the next round of the game, you'll just post in the Blog that you want to implement your powerPLAY. If everyone remaining in your Final Four (be it four, three, two, or one persons) survives the next round, you get the number of people in your Final Four times the round number worth of points.
For example, say Tom wants to implement his powerPLAY for round eight. He would say so during the round seven blog, sometime before it ends. The powerPLAY would take effect for round eight. If he has three people remaining in his Final Four at the start of round eight, and all three survive the round, he'll be awarded 24 bonus points (3 people X 8th round). If one of his final four picks gets voted out that round, however, he'd be deducted the number of people in his Final Four plus the round number (3 people + 8th round would equal a -11 in this example). So obviously it's to your advantage to use the powerPLAY as late in the game as possible, but at the same time you really need at least a couple of people still alive in your Final Four for your powerPLAY to pack some bang.
So as you can see, there's a bit of strategy involved this go-around. The main reason I'm doing this is because it should reward those that actually stick around and continue to blog all season long rather than bail at the beginning. Methinks a successful powerPLAY will be the key to winning the Pick-'Em Game this season.
