The Philimination Game is back!!

Usually, we start off with the second show, giving us a week to evaluate the teams. But I see no reason why we can't just start it off with Week 1, seeing as we are privy to the team bios on CBS and here. So, here is how we play:

RULES


1. Beginning with the September 26 show, anyone wanting to participate in this game will submit the name of a currently active TAR team they feel will survive the episode.

Sample weekly submission: Week 1: Connor and Jonathon

2. Important: You may use each team only ONE time for the duration of TAR XVII. Your strategy may be to pick a team you perceive as weaker (but not "weakest"!) each week. Or your strategy may be to play it safe and pick a stronger team, to make sure you progress into the next week. Teams you haven’t used, but are eliminated from the Race are also no longer eligible to use for the game.

3. Submission must be prior to the start of the upcoming episode's first showing (i.e. Eastern Time)

4. If your Team survives the episode, you also survive in The Philimination Game.

5. If your Team is eliminated from the Race, then you are Philiminated from the Game.

6. If your chosen team leaves for any other reason during the same episode, you are also out. This includes medical evac, quitting, or any other incident which puts them out of the game.

7. In the event of a Non-Elimination leg/episode, all picks from the given week carry over to the next week.

8. If you miss a deadline, forget to pick, you are also out of the game.

9. The game will end either after the final episode (there can be ties, even for 1st) or when the last player has been Philiminated.


I don't think its neccessary to play a spoiled/unspoiled game here. Yes, there are spoilers out there, but many are speculative, and not entirely reliable. So we should be ok just doing one game. If anyone disagrees, I can be convinced to split this game into spoiled/unspoiled like I am doing for Survivor.

Come on in and have fun!

You're a step ahead of me, Jarreau. I can only base mine on the team bios. CBS has blocked the 'meet the team' videos from Canada.

Never played before!

We join a team, does the team vote or do we individually vote within a team?

Which team needs numbers, I am up for grabs LOLOL

Teams are just for rivalry sake, we play as individuas. You wanna be a PJ Partier, Scubalass. Break out your favourite flannel and join us on the couch.

Don't forget, Who Dats, these are the pyjamas you're contending with, lol.

Scuba - it is completely up to you which team you join....can't even remember how the team concept came about - I think there were some WhoDats playing and we just teamed up against the others and they became known as the Pesky Pajama People.

But, just so you'll know the WhoDats are Champions at more than football....if you catch my drift.

And while the PJ Partiers are sitting on the couch (in their flannels), the WhoDats are doing the Second Line down the street.

We're definitely more fun that those PJ People.....
