Survivor: Fans VS. Favourites - 2013 - Pool and Discussion

It's that time again! :excited:

I'm starting this thread now to get feedback on contributions. Should they be mandatory or no? In previous seasons contributions were not mandatory but after receiving many PM's, I changed the pool to mandatory contributions last season. Last season was our lowest participation level (each participant had 2 Survivors).

So, my question is should contributions (anything from a long expiry FPC, GC, P stamps) be mandatory?

Jan 10th will be the cut off for voting so that we can start drawing names and securing spots before the season starts in February.

**It is official -- The pool is now mandatory contribution based on the past month of voting**

The pool is now full, I will RANDOMLY draw names and post who everyone has in the third post of this thread when I receive all contributions. As always, I will pay for shipping and tracking to ensure the winner receives all their winnings (this season it's A LOT). :)

ooooooooooh so excited

Hoping they bring Rupert back! It would be interesting to see Elisabeth play again, though I doubt she'd leave her comfy seat on The View.

Save me a spot please!

I so want in on this again!! My kids had a lot of fun with the last pool....they told me not to miss the next one!!

And I think the contribution should be mandatory....it makes it a lot of fun when you know you might win something and it wouldnt really be fair if some people put up prizes and others didnt....you can maybe put a note in if someone really cant afford to send in something than maybe some of us could help out?? but in reality there are lots of ways to get some FPC's for no cost...it is probably more of an issue with people not wanting to part with them than not affording them;) Just my thoughts....

Bumping!

We need people for the next pool. If you know any SC'ers that like Survivor make sure to tell them about the pool! :)

I'll join, I agree, everyone should contribute!! Just seems like the right thing to do!!

If everyone contributes I think I might like to join!

So based on the screen shots I took from the Youtube clip here are the names I gathered. A few names show up on the list Lola posted earlier, and a few that don't...we'll just have to wait and see...

Also there are a few that I didn't identify...simply because I got bored for looking up photos and trying to match on google :)
So if you want to identify then, I'll edit the post later :)

Thanks Lola,

I see it now, and I think you're right, good eye! :)
It was hard to match them up with other Survivor "in progress photos" since those are "fresh" beginning of the season photos.

Count me in!
