When I used to play Survivor online as a teenager, everyone seemed to love doing a popularity challenge where the winner of immunity was the person who could get the most votes on a poll. I think after a while I threatened to quit if the host did that.

I think the letter survivor sounds fun but is a little imbalanced.

Thereby ensuring that the winner will be someone who doesn't need to win, how very exciting. That's basically the worst possible challenge, but it's also the laziest one to mod! Hooray~~

No, I'm fairly sure STD means a popularity vote based on the entire forum, so what would happen was there would be campaigns all over GD and the admins would get mad. I think those challenges have been sitebanned at this point.

Then again, I've only minorly skimmed some of the Survivors from back then, so I could be completely wrong.
Never be sorry for your little time.

It's not when you get there, it's always the climb.

Yup, they got banned and this is precisely why.

Players won't know how they did (or maybe they do all get told how everyone did) until it's actually time. Or maybe they go to a TC that takes place in the future (and provide a ranked list incase their target is no longer in the game), or have the option to change votes that occurred in the past (and thus resulting in a revived player!). My original idea of a Time Travel Mole was Dr. Who themed and not too complicated. For example, they take the first quiz, the executed player is not revealed, then they have a challenge where players can win exemption for the first Round. Then the Execution is revealed :P. And they take quizzes and challenge in the future (they actually had a Mole in Dutch where they were given a Quiz and the challenge for the Quiz took place AFTER the Quiz, so the players attempted to manipulate others' actions to coordinate with their test answers).


Calling dibs on this.
