Re: Am Survivor: Round 1, Week 12

Same deal for the Beach Boys as I put forth for David Bowie a few weeks ago. If you make them your -3, I will make your -4 my -3, if you make them your -2, I will make your -4 my -2, etc. Only now, if you make them your -4, I will vote the same -4 as you next week.

The only ones I won't vote for are: Jimi Hendrix, Prince, The White Stripes, Neil Young, Pixies

Jackson- T Rex is immune
Henry- This week was the twist week, so you vote will count twice next week.

Having Kraftwerk immune makes it harder to come up with a (-4).

(-3) Michael Jackson
(-2) Lou Reed
(-1) Creedence Clearwater Revival

Nobody else wants to get the Beach Boys out? I've got nothing against them, I just think they'll be hard to get out later, and that their pre-Pet Sounds output is a bit too hook-driven and surfing-obsessed.

Re: Am Survivor: Round 1, Week 12

I'm trying to figure out why every one's voting off the possible champions instead of srtists that aren't as hot. I mean how is T Rex still in? They came in 81 the first time around. I know part of it is moonbeam, but still.

If you help me with Beach Boys I'll help you with Outkast.

Prince is someone I wouldn't mind to see winning, but it does make a lot of sense for people who don't want him to win to vote against him.

Moonbeam keeps just slightly beating me to the punch with the immunities. Maybe we should target T Rex the first week Moonbeam doesn't win.

I am not sure how this twist works yet.

Please let me know if my double count next week means that I should vote -8, -6, -4 and -2 next week; or whether I can use other permutations as long my total vote is -20 and no act receives more than -8. Please help me understand the voting limitations so that I can avoid revision requirements next week.

Why didn't anyone vote for The Doors? They stick out to me as clearly the worst of the artists remaining.

I prefer the Doors to many of the other remaining acts, e.g., Blur, James Brown, The Byrds, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Leonard Cohen, PJ Harvey, The Jam, Joy Division, Kraftwerk, Nirvana, OutKast, Pavement, Pixies, Portishead, Sonic Youth, Lou Reed, The Stooges, Talking Heads, T. Rex, The White Stripes, and Wilco. Lots of potential targets left as far as I'm concerned

I will gladly send 4 points to T. Rex the first week they aren't immune.

Re: Am Survivor: Round 1, Week 12

I'm glad that I could extend T. Rex's run. I didn't participate in the Immunity contest this week, so it looks like this week will be their last. Nevertheless, it's a good result for an artist that I believe is underrated around here.

At the begging of the tournament, I mentioned there would be a random week when the third person to vote would get their vote to count twice next week. This was the radnom week, and you were the third to vote. SO next week, you get a -8, -6, -4, -2. This was a one time shot.
