POLL??
Puttergirl | Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 09:56 am     Does anyone know who normally does the POLL game for The Amazing Race?? I wouldn't mind doing one but I don't want to take it away from whoever usually does it. Please post here if you know who does it or if you yourself usually do it. |
Squaredsc | Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 04:49 pm     its not me puttergirl. may have to check the archives to see who did. |
Alaginger | Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 06:57 pm     This is my first time to watch AR, but I had a ball playing the TVCH game for Survivor 6. You, or somebody else get a game going Puttergirl....and I'm sure going to play. Thanks!!! |
Egbok | Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 10:32 pm     Hi Puttergirl, I went to the archives and looked at AR3. Looks like Wilsonatmd did the game for AR3 but I'm sure he/she wouldn't mind if you do the game this time around! Okay everyone, to vote for Puttergirl, just dial TVC-HAR-FOUR! <I'm joking about dialing in your vote, but let's encourage Puttergirl.> |
Wilsonatmd | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 05:29 am     Putter, if you want to , you can go ahead and do it. My situation is a little more tenous this time around to do it (I might start working anytime), plus I'm gone for at least one episode in June. So you go ahead and do it if you'd like. |
Egbok | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 11:36 am     Hey it's Wilsonatmd! Okay, between you and Puttergirl, we'll have a game!! WooHoo!!
 |
Puttergirl | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 04:44 pm     Ok, if Wilsonatmd doesn't mind, I'll do it. Thanks, Wilsonatmd. For those of you who have never played in one of my polls, I give one point for playing each week (so nobody has to have a zero score), and escalating points each week for the evictee. There are usually some BONUS picks too. Here are my ideas for some BONUS picks. If anyone has others, please post them: 1. Bonus for picking the fast forwards?? 2. Bonus for picking how teams will do the roadblocks?? 3. Bonus for picking the order of the top 3 or bottom 3?? Once I get a few suggestions, I'll post the official rules and point system. |
Grannyg | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 04:48 pm     YEA!!!!! PUTTERGIRL!! I want to play. Wouldn't miss one of your games. |
Pamy | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 05:12 pm     YEAH P-Girl!!!!! How about a bonus for who fall first in the first episode? I read an article that they do a lot of falling. |
Alaginger | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 05:16 pm     Puttergirl......I new at watching TAR, but reading through the show description that Tabbyking posted, you might consider Bonus Points as relates to Penalties. Like: Penalties this week.......... No Penalties this week....... Who gets a Penalty....... |
Puttergirl | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:50 pm     I've started a new thread for the POLL:
The Amazing Race IV POLL Please go there to vote for the first episode. Continue to post suggestions for future BONUS questions here! |
Wilsonatmd | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 07:47 am     Sone possible questions: Who will do the Roadblock on a specific team? There is usually a Detour each week. How will the two options be split? (a person could answer for week one: 7 teams will do one option, 4 teams will do the other, and one won't have to decide because of a FF use.) Will a team get a "Go directly to pitstop to be eliminated" note because they are so far behind? Will the Fast Forward cause the team to use it to end the leg in First place? After a non-elimination leg: Will the team that was last in the non-elimination leg be eliminated this week? Will there be any "bleeps"? Will someone say something about a fear (of heights, flying, animals, etc.)? Will a (bus, boat, taxi, airplane) be used by the teams this week? What kind of task will the roadblock involve? (Using actual Roadblocks, options could include :physical, like stopping a penalty kick, mental, such as the totem pole animals requiring memory, skill, such as shooting the crossbow, or other: such as selling the snails (where more luck is involved than anything)....some judgement might be required as to what could be right tho) What is "the spread"; the time difference between the first place team and the last place team? (You could make that multiple choice, such as, less than 2 hours, between 2 and 4 hours, between 4 and 6 hours, more than 6 hours, or impossible to determine because the times of the first and/or last place team weren't shown) Which team will make the biggest move? (improve by the higehst number of positions) Which team will have the biggest fall?(loss of the greatest number of positions) Which team will be the first at the Detour/ Roadblock? How much money will each team receive for the leg? (Again, Multiple choice could be used: Less than $50, between $50-$100, between $100-$200, Between $200-$300, More than $300, or we aren't told) |
Egbok | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 09:36 am     Great questions Wilsonatmd! I'm looking forward to playing along in this TVCH game. |
Puttergirl | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 10:58 am     Wilsonatmd, maybe we can do the POLL together. You're much better at the BONUS stuff than I am. Why don't you decide on the BONUS question(s) each week and post them in the POLL thread along with the normal weekly questions I have. Then I'll combine the scores for all the questions each week together when I post the points. What do you think? If you want to see an example of how I post the scores, go look at the last American Idol POLL. |
Wilsonatmd | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 01:52 pm     ok...you want me to post a question for this week, or wait until next episode? Because I have two questions that would be perfect for this episode. (What team will be introduced first, and what team after they start the race will have the first confessional) If not, we can wait til next week. and how many questions do would you like me to post each week? I guess not more than one or two at first, but more as the number of teams get reduced. |
Tabbyking | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 02:05 pm     as a player, i have only one request, and that's because i get confused!! but if there are too many questions each week, i can't remember what they are and if they are on the page before (due to so many posts since) i have to keep flipping back and forth...so other than basics that maybe stay the same, i.e., 'first in', 'last in', 'does phil mf any team at the pit stop', could you consider just having a couple of bonus questions each episode until the grand finale? this might also make it easy for putter and wilson to score. just a thought! thanks for your consideration, and thank you for running this game. |
Julieboo | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 06:05 pm     mf??? |
Alaginger | Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 08:28 pm     Oh.........I saw that word over at Mediawhore, didn't I. M is for Mind. F was a bad 4-letter word. |
Llkoolaid | Sunday, May 25, 2003 - 03:34 pm     No requests or ideas from me, just a thankyou for doing the game. |
Not1worry | Tuesday, May 27, 2003 - 08:11 am     Tabby, I was thinking along those lines too. How many seconds will Phil pause dramatically before revealing the standing to the team? Will Phil have man-boobies again this year? (i'm still slightly traumatized by last years) Which team will be the first to shed tears? |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, May 27, 2003 - 08:22 am     not1!! your name should be notty1, as in naughty one, lol man boobies.....bwa-hahahahahhahaa! |
Puttergirl | Tuesday, May 27, 2003 - 11:37 am     Wilsonatmd, why don't we wait til next week since its not long until the first episode now. As soon as the first episode is over, go ahead and post your bonus questions for the next week and what they will be worth. I guess we should stick to 2 questions as Tabbyking requested. Thanks- it will be fun working with you. |
Alaginger | Thursday, June 05, 2003 - 07:26 am     "I Wasn't Even Going To Touch You Until You Slammed My Head Backwards" Possible Bonus Question: Is this statement between two people on the same team, or two people from opposing teams? |
Dipo | Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 05:03 pm     I don't really know where to post this question, so here goes.... Is anyone going to spoil the show ???? Please oh please. |
Cathie | Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 05:16 pm     Dipo, it is usually spoiled in the AR General Discussion folder. |
Essence | Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 05:18 pm     I set up a thread in the General Discussion folder for spoiling tonight. |
