The Runouw Survivor Recap Topic

Welcome, everybody, to Survivor: Runouw!



This is a Survivor online game that will involve sixteen Runouw members!

So for those of you who don't know how Survivor works, it's incredibly simple: sixteen people compete against each other on two different tribes to be the last one standing by any means necessary. For a few episodes, two tribes will face off in immunity challenges against each other. Whoever wins will get a reward. Whoever loses must go to Tribal Council where they will vote off one of their own. After the two tribes merge into one, only one person can win immunity each round, and the voting-off continues. At the final two, 3rd-9th placers form a jury that will vote for someone to win the game, and that person will be the Sole Survivor.

Now, why should anyone care about this?

Well, here's why.

Normally, this game is played by fanatics who just play for the love of the game. However, I know we don't have many fans, if any, of the show/game in Runouw.com. So let's make this a little interesting and have me put my money where my mouth is. This game has a prize, and the prize is a $100 gift certificate to Steam or any other game/media site of your choice.

That's right. This is the only game in Runouw history to give you an actual reward for playing.

Furthermore, I'll be taking the data from the show itself and making an actual forum story out of it should time permit, or at least put it in blog form. So you'll be on a version of the TV show itself, just for us as a story.

Worth playing for? Well, here's the application.

Name:
Country/Time Zone:
Do You Know Survivor?:
What Brought You To This Game?:
How Do You Plan to Win?:
What Do You Do For Fun?:
What's Been Your History with Runouw?:
What Kind of Character Do You Think You'll Bring To The Table?:
What Kind of Certificate or $100 Prize Do You Want?:
Anything Else You'd Like to Add to Your Pitch to Be a Contestant?:

So send in your app and see what you can bring! Once I get sixteen, I'll explain the format and how it works, but it should be easy to follow! At the most, the game should take around a month and a half.

Good luck!

~MoD

Karyete, Master of Civil Conversation
Disclaimer: none of these messages have been edited, context can be provided if needed (thanks discord!) but absolutely does not change anything about these messages and that he's too overly defensive and cocky to make situations better

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic
