I'm finding CBn a little dull without a kickass reality tv ripoff to play. Could CBn Survivor work? Show of hands...

What is Survivor? What's the format for the show? I've heard of it but we don't get it in Britain.

Well, how exactly would it be done? I'd just like to know, I'm sure with you running it Matt, it would have to be good, you've done excellent with Mole I and II, I'm just curious as to what it'd be like.

You live in Britan, eh? I live in Canada. No lies!
We get Survivor in Saskatchewan. It's been quite a fad since 2000, but has really died down come 2002(3?).

Then consider yourself lucky, I hate the show. Stupid crap. My hand is burried in the ground for this game.

Lucky you! I can't stand any of the Survivor shows, or the whole "reality" show fashion going about here in the U.S., which is actually "pseudo-reality". I opine it is a bunch of crass tripe. :)

Actually we do get it in Britain, you just probably can't remember it because it as so long ago. It's that one with a group of people on an island that have to perform challenges (like most reality games) and one by one are voted off until the last 'survivor' is left.

I don't know if it would work here but I'd be willing to have a go.

It would work, but only in a text sense.

Might be like the mole without the BS and deception. Sounds good, count me in.

I've seen people do this on other game and film forums, and it works fine. I wouldn't mind giving it a go if someone tried to run it.

Can't believe you brits live in a survivor less world. Don't poo poo it either, you started it with CastAway 2000!

I think this would be fun to play but I don't want to run it. Anyone want to take the chair?

Interesting idea, but I wouldn't know how to get a show like that into an internet game, kind of something you have to do I think.

Baron Samendi tried to get this game running a while back, but not enough people signed up. I guess he knows how run it, though.

If it all goes through, count me in.

Matt, we do have it in Britain, or we did have. We only had two series of it.

And we, the Brits, did not start Survivor with Castaway 2000, the game was very much from the Dutch Expedition Robinson and Eco Challenge games.

Grrrrr. And the only reason the Brit version failed was because it wasn't run by MB and had a crap cast who all wanted to look like nice people.

America's Survivor seems to be doing fairly well, they're coming up with the 11th season or something like that.

Count me in Matthew, it sounds like a great idea although I really do think you should take charge! It wouldn't be the same if it was someone else.
