Still nothing.... this is so not looking good, folks.
I've emailed CBS a couple of times before and never even got a form response back. I wasn't planning on even trying it again this time. Our best bet is probably to storm the Survivor forums on CBS.com.
uh unless your login situation has improved... how we gonna play?
I think everyone should post their picks (with corresponding bonus point categories) here before the show airs on the East coast. That way if they don't do the game this week, we can do a manual count over the weekend from the episode video posted on the CBS web site.
*For Example:
Kelly - Gets Naked
Michelle - Gets Naked
Jessica - Gets Naked
Gillian - Gets Naked
*not my actual picks
Failure to post your picks before Thursday 8pm EST will result in your picks from the previous week being used for scoring again. Editing the post containing your picks after after that time will result in you getting a big fat 0 for the week. We'll use the same categories and scoring methods as CBS.
It used to be that they didn't score the first episode anyway. Even if it's not working by tomorrow, it could be in time for next week. I'm keeping my hopes up but how does this sound for a "plan b?"
One poster did some research and came up with some phone numbers for CBS. He suggests calling instead of relying on internet message boards that CBS probably never reads anyhow... "phone # in California is 1-323-575-2345 and New York is 1-212-975-4321." I imagine if CBS's phone rings off the hook for the next 24 hours, maybe they might get something done? Or maybe not....

my actual picks
and they better not be naked! egad!
I called the CA number. A guy picked up and said "CBS." I don't know what that number goes too but it rang straight to a human being which is strange for a company as large as CBS.
So anyway, he said there would be an announcement about the Fantasy League during the series premiere. I tried to press him for more information about when the Fantasy League site might actually work and he seemed to be getting impatient with me. He definently gave me no indication that there might not be a Fantasy League this year so I'm going to guess they just aren't scoring the first episode.
I'd still suggest going with Plan B (see previous post). If they get it running for next week we can consider our premiere episode scores as good practice for the real thing.
I'm curious...before I assign my bonus points, are there even coconuts in Gabon????

OK, I think I have everything up to this point. Please post your picks from this point on, in the new thread. It will be easier for me to maintain that way.
Thanks.
Anyhow, have fun "storming the forums"!
(Have fun storming the castle!... you have been mostly dead all day...)
Since I am a Fantasy Survivor newbie, is it possible someone be so kind as to lead me in the direction where I can find all the activities I assign to my players? Catch a fish? Coconut? Get naked? What if they catch a fish with a coconut while naked?
If I want to take Pink out I need to be sure I understand the point system. Thanks!

Just pick "Swims" as a bonus for each of your players, See, and you'll be all set to take me out. Heh.
(no such bonus.. move along, folks)
