Also, objectively speaking, DA, your rationale for not voting me to win Survivor because I wanted to play like it was Survivor is mind-boggling.
I'm aware. It's sad, but I like Survivor up until the very end because of what is the best play. It's like the Prisoner's Dilemma, I know the best way to play is to be a dick but that doesn't mean I have to support it.
Besides, your answer was lacking. :P
For the record I was open to being convinced against El Skid but it would have been hard. You likely had no chance against Fembot since he volunteered to eat the vote over in Malta land because he'd had trouble contributing. He wins much respect for his anti-Survivor style play.
Also, Grundl asked a better non-question question than I did by far. That was rather interesting to read.
In retrospect, I should have asked to be voted out because I knew I wouldn't be able to participate, but I kept hoping that if I hung on for one more day I'd get a chance to contribute.
Thankfully, azn was kind enough to take me out in a not completely humiliating way. I may have gotten bit by a snake, but at least I punched a shark on the way out.
Off hand I'm more referring to the obvious organizing which quickly leads to a more confrontational tone to things. It's not inherently jerkish, the jerk bit was about the Dilemma thing.
I should have definitely gotten some of the answers that I didn't (even if I didn't get them first) - but like I said when I was trying to get the Maltans to vote me out, I've been running at diminished mental capacity for some time now (yay stress).
I've only ever seen a couple episodes of Survivor, so from that perspective, I think a bit more clarification on some things could have helped (however to be fair, I should have asked earlier than I did for clarification).
When we got to the merge and I hadn't been voted out yet, I figured I'd just try to win the thing. I feel quite bad about betraying Blarney there - though if I had supported him, he still wouldn't have been able to stay in from the way the votes were looking.

I had a good time, but I kinda got discouraged when I realized a lot of the puzzles had something to do with survivor (which I never watched).
Thanks anzman, grats Skid!

Grundl, can you open up the Bono board to show my jerkosity in all its glory?

Good game guys.
The puzzles were good, overall.
