Hotlantan | Friday, October 11, 2002 - 04:37 pm     http://tvgames.yahoo.com/survivor When I log in, on the left column is this info: Welcome, hotlantan Sign Out Yahoo! TV Yahoo! TV Home Survivor 5 Pick'em Game Hot in Herre Points: 110 Overall Rank: 6011 of 76172 Percentile: 92nd Rank Change: +36212 My Groups TVCHPICKERS Rank: 4 of 30 This tells me I (Hot in Herre) have a total of 110 points, which ranks me 6011 out of 76172 registered players in Yahoo. Getting 105 of my 110 points yesterday vaulted me up past 36,212 other players in the rankings. And in our group TVCHPICKERS, I am ranked (tied) 4th out of the 30 people in the group. Since there are public groups and private groups all with different numbers of members who may or may not play each week, Yahoo does not rank groups against each other. So the top 50 listed is out of the 76172 total registered players. Those eleven people with 415 points simply got all four picks right and bet the full amount each week. You can click the Top 50 and notice that 315 points would still have you ranked tied for 30th out of 76172 players. My 110 points has me ranked tied for 6011th. Yahoo only updates the rankings once a week, late Thursday a few hours after each show is aired. |
Grannyg | Friday, October 11, 2002 - 04:48 pm     Twig, The only response I got from Yahoo was the general directions for playing and how to use your 100 points. No mention of groups being ranked or anything. Thanks Hot, for the information but I was really hoping they would rank the groups. So I guess I'll have to settle for the overall viewpoint. |
Twiggyish | Friday, October 11, 2002 - 05:15 pm     Thanks Hot! I'll go check my standings. I went for all points on Ghandia this week. Now next week is a different story.. I HAVE NO clue who to pick. |
Suzsmarmie | Saturday, October 12, 2002 - 06:20 am     I hedged a bit this week, Twiggy. Ended up putting 75 on Gone-dia and 25 on Robb. Also got the IC team right!! So, 80 big points for the Yahoo Team!! I was so excited to finally be able to make some points for us...my husband thinks I'm crazy. But, Granny, don't remove my place in the Sucks thread...next week, I'll be back!! |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, October 15, 2002 - 07:23 pm     I got this in email today.. *********Reminder************** SURVIVOR PICK'EM WEEKLY DEADLINE REMINDER This week's deadline for making your picks in Yahoo! TV's Survivor Pick'em Game is 8:00pm ET/5:00pm PT on Thursday October 17, 2002. If you haven't made your picks already, be sure to login and make 'em before the deadline! -- Yahoo! TV's Survivor Pick'em http://tvgames.yahoo.com/survivor ******************************************** I'm spreading guesses over a few names this week, because I am clueless. (ok, more clueless than normal..LOL) |
Grannyg | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 03:05 am     Man, this is really hard because I don't know how to pick a boot because I'm not really sure what team they will end up on. So much for 100 points on one person this week. |
Twiggyish | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 07:22 pm     Ok, I spread out points between Stephanie and Shi Ann this week. |
Babyruth | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 07:41 pm     And I split points between Jan and Shii Ann this week. |
Twiggyish | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 07:54 pm     That's ok, I bet you're right. I just had no clue who to pick. |
Babyruth | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 08:10 pm     Me neither!! I haven't read one little thing about it all week. But Jan may be perceived as too old, and Shii Ann seems to be a marked woman. Who the heck knows! |
Whoami | Wednesday, October 16, 2002 - 10:20 pm     OK, I went with Jan and Shii Ann cause everyone else did, but also included Stephanie, since she was highlighted last week as a PITA. |
Grannyg | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 03:25 am     Have not a clue but: RC: Chewy IC: Sooky Boot: Shii Ann (even though I put points on Stephanie and Clay, just in case) |
Suzsmarmie | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 06:09 am     I'm so glad everyone else is having the same problem I'm having. After last week's "easy" pick, this week has me baffled. Granny, Twiggy... make sure my seat is ready in the Sucks thread, 'cause I'm going to need it. Since it's finally cooled off here in SC, the hot chocolate will be great!! I'm going with Shii Ann as well...but think I'll put some points on Stephanie as well. |
Alaginger | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 07:13 am     I put 75 on Robb because of the stingray thing.......and then 25 on Stephanie, just in case!!! Hope I get something for the group out of that. |
Meggieprice | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 01:19 pm     ARGHHH! What the heck to do? I spread my points over 4 players because this switcharoo has me baffled....hope I can at least get 25 points. Suz-lets put some rum in that hot chocolate! |
Grannyg | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 01:51 pm     I'm so confused I posted mine backwards. RC: Sooky IC: Chewy Boot: Shii Ann I think I'll just mosey on over to the suck thread to start with since I can't even get my predictions right!! |
Laluna | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 02:43 pm     I put all my eggs in one basket this week and went with Jan to get the boot. This is a confusing week, with this tribe switcheroo...so I tried to base it on story arc...I am sure I am wrong, and will be heading off to the suck thread to join Grannyg! |
Suzsmarmie | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 04:13 pm     Hey, Meggie...not a big Rum person....perhaps a little Bailey's Irish Cream in that chocolate?? What say you?? Suzs--------headin to the Sucks Thread with bells on! |
Suzsmarmie | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 06:19 pm     Slinking off to Sucks Thread..only got 30 points for Yahoo Team this week. I'm SOOO SORRY, guys!! If anybody needs me (for throwing things at, berating for being confused, unsure, etc), I'll be over at Sucks. |
Meggieprice | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 06:30 pm     Suz- 30 points is nothing to be ashamed of! I got 25...this possible tribe switch had us all befuddled, so lets get really befuddled over at sucks with our poison of choice... |
Babyruth | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 07:21 pm     Well, nuts. I split my vote between Jan and Shii Ann. I'm off to the sucks thread. |
Whoami | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 09:33 pm     Whew! I'd gone with 30 each for Jan and Steph, and 40 for Shii. But, I picked Sookie to win Imm. Oh well. I guess 30 points is ok. But I bet my ranking goes down... |
Meggieprice | Thursday, October 17, 2002 - 10:19 pm     Check carefully you guys because my pick shows i got 30 points tonight (25 on steph and chuy to win ic) but my total shows me scoring 0. I e-mailed them...I mean, I suck, but at least I dont suck quite as bad as that! |
Twiggyish | Friday, October 18, 2002 - 12:46 pm     I put 50 on Steph.. I hope they added mine in,too. |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, October 22, 2002 - 10:59 am     Ok, it's that time again!! Don't worry about sucky picks. I'm spreading them out again this time. |
