Can I make a suggestion?

Instead of winning challenges by being the FIRST entry, why not require each team to submit a GROUP entry - and have the challenge/questions be a little more complex with several answers needed to complete them - say like a 6 or 7 part question?

That would then require the teams to do some form of collaborating and communicating - and making it more of a team challenge. One person from the team can submit the official answer form. The team that gets the MOST right wins. As a tie break you could either have a quantity-based question and whoever gets closest wins, or award the tiebreak to the team that submitted their entry the fastest.

I suggest this, because a single question with a speed entry contest doesn't really require any type of team participation, and puts some individuals at a real disadvantage based on when they are able to log on to OTz around work schedules etc.

After the tribes are merged and it's an individual competition, I could see the single-answer/speed-based questions being appropriate.

Something to think about, anyway.

That's an awesome suggestion for when you run the next Survivor. ;)

I agree with this also in relation to the previous Qn by Hart. I had re- read the rules of the game and it was quite confusing. Questions arise as : how and when can we know among the team members when to collabaorate. How will we know what time and who sent an answer etc. when not all tribe members are online at same time etc.. etc. I had been thinking about it. I agree with Tang's suggestion :nod: This would be much more organized, imo :D

As far as Zirc goes, those are all OUR problems, not HERS.

It is up to us to solve them, not up to her to nerf the game. :p

Well, i think the main point is that more of what i quoted above that was mentioned by Tang. Imo, it creates more confusion among tribe members due to different members' schedule of logging on and also time zones maybe? :dunno:

Well, we'll see how it goes then with this first game :D :thumbup
