Hooray, I feel like I haven't been enthusiastic about the Pick 'Em since Hawaii. Seriously. So let's have a blast with this! Feel free to offer your input in this thread, but here's what I was thinking. I was hoping we could go old school with this but with a new Fans/Favorites flavor. Everyone would pick one Fave winner and one Fan winner. Your final four would then include these two people along with two others (any combination of fans/faves). Let's ditch the dark horse pick since half the time nobody knows what that means. For the sake of simplicity, we can also ditch the First Out pick. For every round someone in your final four survives, you get a point. So if all four of your picks survive the first round, you get four points. If someone in your final four gets voted out the next round, you'd get 3 points that round. And so on. Simple enough. Whenever we get to the actual final four, you get a five-point bonus for each of your final four picks that actually made it to that point. If you somehow get all four correctly, you should just get an automatic WIN or something. lawlz. If either your Fave winner or Fan winner wins the game, you get 10 points. Between these two winner picks you should select a "true" winner. If it somehow came down to your Fave pick against your Fan pick at the final tribal council, who would win the game? If your "true" winner wins the game, you get 20 points. Sound good? Sadly I won't have the time to make perty graphics like I did in Hawaii, but if anyone else is game for that, feel free. Even without the graphics though we can still have a blast with this.

I want the dark horse to be in it!!! *pouts* That was so much more better and I actually managed to kick some people's asses when I had my dark horse. Fan Winner- I'll say Taylor. Fave Winner- My girl Lorii <3 F4- Lorii, Taylor, Erik & RB. I was going to choose 3 girls but decided it wasn't likely

lol nice choices Morgan Faves winner - Allan (sentimental pick) Fans winner - Caitlin Final Four - Allan, Caitlin, Jeffrey, Erik. Dark Horse - Tie between Robbie/Alex I would've had more fans in my picks, but I dont see them doing very well unless they dominate challenges and pick off the faves one by one. :/

Reasons for picks: Allan: I have to root for him. I rooted for him in Hawaii. He returned the favor by rooting for me in All-Stars. And then he did again in Arabia, so now I must repay the favor to him again . Plus Allan is easy to get along with, and well liked. He is one of the older guys, and maybe people will look up to him. He could be like a father figure Taylor: I see her being the Christina of this season. The sweet innocent girl at the start who plays hardcore towards the end. I predicted Jamie would be like Christina in Arabia and I was right...so maybe I have good Christina instincts. RB: He seems realy dedicated to the game, and I think he will do well because of it Lorii: Come on, who wouldnt want to be allied with a crazy, drunk newf? I see her being welcomed into a majority alliance, and not being one of the main threats of that alliance, thus being able to make it far in the game.

Perhaps for the Dark Horse we could set it up where you can only pick from people who have NOT been picked in everyone's final fours. Because the whole point of a "dark horse" is that it's somebody who you wouldn't think has a legit shot at winning. So...yeah. If y'all wanna do the Dark Horse this season, those are my terms and I'm standing by them.

Oh yeah, and my Dark Horse. I chose Robbie because everyone has seen Arabia. Possibly even the fans. And Robbie proved to be a very loyal player. I don't think anyone will be afraid of him trying to backstab anyone

Not because you went to Oxford for some time means you can choose the rules Tom No, I'm kidding, sadly, it does and also the fact that I actually like that idea a lot. I guess we have to wait for the darkhorses picks then until everyone has their F4 picks up. Jamie, a dark horse is like an underdog, someone who no one will expect to do good but does and is kind of a surprise. Taylor, we all know you picked Taylor as a winnder because she has your same name, just saying

My dark horse would be Olyvia because she is somewhat under the radar in her gameplay but stays loyal to whoever she alligns with, also she likes to win challenges so she might not go anywhere soon.
