Winner
2008 Rock Paper Scissors Championship

For fans of the TV show Survivor


Read the following carefully:
Watch the first episode of Survivor and decide who you think will be the winner
of this season's show. I will be giving to the winner of this contest 500 NP$.
There is a limit to the number of entrants since each NPer can only have 1 pick.
You must be the first to post the name of the Survivor contestant and no one else
can choose the same after. You must post your choice after I've made my pick (in
an attempt to win my own NP$ back ).
I will post my pick sometime between 18-24 hours after the time of this post.

Here is a list of the Survivor contestants:

Ashley Trainer, a spa sales rep from Maple Oak, MN
Ben Browning, a mixologist from Los Angeles, CA
Betsy Bolan, a police officer from Campton, NH

so hard to pick after the first show but ill try lol

the first episode i usally just think about which dumb ass will be the first to go

hope they dont do anything like men vs women on this one, those types are not as good as the "normal" ones to me.

could guess who the first to find an idol, whos the hottest girl, first huge blind side

The oil Russel had a great plan at first(but he turn out so slimey), The women are the best ones to buddy up with in this game, they wait to the end before stabbing in the back. Guys want to fight from the begining

though I was dieing to say something I couldn't because of people way over on the
other coast .

Turns Out the first person voted out wasn't a dumb ass, even if Oilman Russel thinks so,
eh Johname. Marisa actually had her suspicions about Russel but didn't realize just how
manipulative he was. It's still very early in the game so nobody has really caught on except
maybe Betsy. She could be next to go because of Russel. He won't last with his strategy
though because he's only 1 person and will always be outnumbered until the end. At some
point there will be more suspicions and people will start comparing notes and will boot him
out.

The person I pick to win Survivor is ....


Betsy Bolan

If she survives against Oilman Russel in the next couple of weeks she can go far in the game.
She may even be the one that gets Russel out.

Lol Marisa was a dumbass because she made waves when she clearly wasnt on the chopping block.

Phil you might as well write off the 500 np because Betsy wont win

I could pick an obivous pick, but i wont

My pick is Monica Padilla

Survivor is edited later and there no need to at first give alot of airtime to someone that last well into the show. They barely even mention Monica. I think unlike Marisa, Monica is smart enough to fly under the radar for a while.

John Fincher

Betsy Bolan WAS my first pick.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=610825


Gotta go with John Fincher for the win. He's gotta find a triage of friends to keep close, the longer and stronger the better, in order to pull it off. Then hope he doesn't get shuffled around too much so he can leverage and build on top of his friendships. Use trust to keep trust and always keep busy. Building is a great crowd pleaser and with his background in engineering he should have some skills as well as common sense. I sure don't think he'll be digging trenches in the sand for high tide beachside shelter anytime soon......I hope! He seems smarter than that. It was bad enough when Sir Captain Rupert pulled that one off in SurvivorIV.

RE: Contest


I'm definitely going with Russell Hantz, you know he's going to be stabbing people in the back throughout the season! If you ever miss the show and want to make sure you're pick hasn't been sent home check out Last Night on TV - MSN for a recap.

Go Russell!

Cheers,

I liked Marisa, but now she's gone.
Kelly is a stunning beauty. They actually
seemed to put a lot of effort into the eye
candy factor when they were selecting
the castaways for this season compared
to previous ones.
