    Chakar, Byrno, cut out the chat. No one wants to have to read through that, least of all me. And I have to.

    Right, so the first challenge.

    I know I said it would be at 9.30 pm last night or tonight, but I lied. It's called "Survivor", not "Have an Easy Life with Cake and Fluff".

    So, the first person to find my first post wins this task. Post the link to it up here. Anyone not playing who takes part in this will be disqualified from taking part in the future. If anyone PMs other users with the answer/clues, they will be disqualified.

    Just in case anyone thinks this is too difficult, here's irlrobins' first post:
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2765989#post2765989.

    Now, that took me the guts of 5 minutes.

    Best of luck.

    Sorry, my apologies. You were right. I always thought this was my first post!

    Right, irlrobins wins the first task. There'll be another one for immunity later.

    You win ten points. If you had been wrong first time around, you would have lost 2 points. So the points for the first task stand:
    irlrobins: 10
    The rest: 0.

    If you win the next task first time around, you pick up twelve points and will get immunity. If there is a draw after the next one, no one gets immunity.

    If someone else comes in and gets twelve points for the next challenge, they win immunity and there's a vote to see who goes.

    Because MNG seems to dislike the way I'm running this, it will be a public poll, so we can see who votes for who. It will be closed to other people though, so only the survivors can vote. (Anyone else who votes will be disqualified from taking part again, and I'll edit out their vote.)

    Pythia, if you're going away, and lose, that's unfortunate. You can still take part, but if you don't win any points, it's unlikely you'll be able to stay on.

    It wasn't the voting system you planned that I disliked, it was the points system.

    There were times in the last Survivor contest where everyone wanted me off (can't imagine why) but because I won the immunity challenge I saved myself. That's the good part of the contest.

    As I understand this current system, if everyone else wanted irlrobins off and he won this immunity challenge, he would still need to win another one to survive in the competition. I think that's bad. But hey, I'm a traditionalist. ;)

    Inspired by this challenge I went and had a look at some of my earlier posts.... and I have to say I'm quite embarrassed, they're all so very childish I use txtspk and don't use capital AT ALL and over-smiley every post! I've improved so much though [no seriously I have] which is something to be grateful for right?

    ...and another thing just over a year ago I was such a MNG groupie http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=2651853&postcount=70 :D

    Ok, the next challenge is a multi-part challenge. That way, there can be a clear points difference.

    Each correct entry will be worth 2 points. Here goes: find as many posts as possible where WhiteWashMan has called someone a fúcktard. There is a 24-hour time limit. Every entry must refer to a different occasion.

    MNG, it wasn't related to this thread.

    Neither of Scragg's count because the first one was posted by irlrobins, and the second one is Daddio quoting from the first post.

    Edit: dajaffa, you have to actually link the post.
