#SurvivorMeet (June 9-13) / NC Mountains [SoThis...'17?]

[Xalxe]

I like the gaming house

[Axxle]

Not only does gaming house sound the most exciting, it's the cheapest too. That one, no contest.

[T-Bone]

Really every challenge they do in the shows sound excellent to me. Having a game room seems like it would be easier on the Mods, as that would be 'free' challenge resources. (also bias since I'm one of the weekend restricted players).

Though if someone has deadly food allergies, then that needs to be discussed. If it comes down to dietary choices (like vegan/vegetarian) well on Survivor the vegetarians eat the weird duck eggs too! (I worry about alcohol though, if we're going to be doing a bunch of stuff each day, having people getting blackout drunk in the middle of the day ehhh...?)

I voted against the prize purse for this reason. I think most of us are big fans of Survivor and get heavily invested in the game emotionally and competitively. while a prize is great, I feel like a monetary prize just adds unneeded charged emotions to the equation. Not that we aren't all adults, but in the heat of the moment who knows? Also personally making this trip will already be a significant investment, so anywhere I can save a few bucks I'm all for. (having a prize isn't a dealbreaker though).

We could always let people decide whether to "buy in" or not, I'll keep that information secret, then pay out anyone who paid in based on final placement (weighted only against others who paid).

[xRECKONERx]

Or yeah, I could just like, get a trophy/plaque engraved and ship it to the winner.

[xRECKONERx]

I just figured some people would prefer monetary value to piece of engraved junk.

[CuddlyCaucasian]

I agree with T-Bone that anyone playing with a monetary investment makes it more toxic than it needs to be, and I really don't want anyone to actually hate each other because of the game! June is probably better at this point because of the house, I just don't know if I can make it then

[Xalxe]

Make the prize a crappy bowling trophy

boom.

I vote something weirder, like a hat or a mug or something.

[CuddlyCaucasian]

the real prize is our new friendships and experiences

and casual sex

[Xalxe]

Dammit I have a boyfling

Something we can embarrassingly display on the mantle in the living room please.

[Xalxe]

Buffs are 'spensive tho

Hmmm... The title fairy is one of the mods for this!

[MattP]

Winner gets to never leave the mountains

[InflatablePie]

Winner

gets

a Mountain.

[Fluminator]

You're pretty great to organize this reck. Sad I can't make it, but you guys have a good time!

[Axxle]

I can see the argument about money making people weird, I know there are horror stories about fantasy leagues and the like.

What if the winner gets to take home the immunity idol?

[MattP]

On that note, can the HIIs be dildos hidden around camp

[InflatablePie]

*dilduses

if there's a way to engrave a dildo I support that as a prize

[Axxle]

I refuse to refer to them as anything other than dildoxen.

[Xalxe]

Honestly I'm sure that for the right price you can find someone who will engrave ANYTHING for you but let's aim for slightly classier maybe?

[Xalxe]

What if the winner gets to take home the immunity idol?

+1

[InflatablePie]

classy dilden only, got it

[MattP]

My brain tells me Xalxe is right, but my heart says Pie is right

[InflatablePie]

could have everyone bring a novelty item and have Reck and co. sort and dole those out as awards. like a white elephant type thing.

idk I'm bad at actual ideas.
