Anyone here know how to do, or want to do, a "survivor game"? I ask because I've seen them on other boards, and they seem entertaining, but I have no idea as to the rules. Anyone here know? Because, if it is a good game, then I'm--game!

I'll take the lack of response as indication either that nobody knows or that nobody wants to play.

See, tarathian123 , from what I've seen, you take a list of things you like--movies, probably, in our case, but I'm sure they could be books or songs or anything. But they all fit into the same category. As an example, let's use "Alfred Hitchcock's filmography." Then, I suppose, everyone votes for the movie he or she dislikes the most. (I think that's why it's called a "survivor game"--it's like that terrible TV game show Survivor.) Anyway, after the first round is over, the person who started the game tallies up the votes, and whichever movie has the most votes (in a Hitchcock game, probably something like Topaz or Torn Curtain) is off the list. Then it goes on and on until there's only one "survivor." I think that's the gist of it, but I know there are other rules that I'm missing, which is why I thought I'd ask first. EDIT: From what I've observed, the general point of the game is to try and make one of your favorites, or, if not, second-tier choices, stay the longest. To do so, sometimes you have to ally with other people and vote out even movies that you may like--it's a strategy game as much as anything.

I see...OK. Give it a go and see what happens. Only two ways to go...top or flop.

OK, swell. How about we start with Hitchcock's filmography, because that's one that most people here will know?
