NationStates Jolt Archive

Okay, I don't know if this has been done or not, but I'm am going to hold a competition exactly like the American reality show, Survivor. Sign-ups are open only to the first 12 people and the competition will begin several days after sign-ups are close. Only one person per nation (except me since I'm the host nation). Each day, I will post a summary of the challenge, then I will have a voters thread in which people may vote for who they think should go out. After I give a summary of the day, you may role-play recap what happened, for I will not go into major detail. Please fill out a forum like the one below. thank you.

Good luck!

Don't worry, Miroxia, I'm working on the page. It's just that my Internet's crawling, surprisingly.

I just want to know what the heck you were trying to do with the opening jargon.

There are such things as infoboxes-which look very nice. You've seen them on Wikipedia. However, it looked like you were trying to create your own-which I'm pretty sure you can't do. You have to get an admin/sysop to write that information into your wiki's code.

oh, okay

Actually, no, any-one can do it, provided they are able to create new pages. You just need know your way around the table code.

Sorry to be pushing all of this on you, but basically, I don't think you can have that cool infoxbox you created there. I applaud your awesomeness however for trying.

I just edited the article, tell me if it's up to your scratch. I'm going to add a subsection for participants, and we'll see where it goes from there.

okay. it's alright. i kinda suck a wikis, so...

I am going to be putting a copy of the WikiStates page on NSwiki, since NSwiki is more user-friendly and because I want to.

your wiki was awesome!

taeshan approved

your wiki was awesome!

Well, thanks!

okay. it's alright. i kinda suck a wikis, so...

You should try NSwiki-it's got a bunch of buttons that you can press that help you with the basic wiki coding (like titles, bold, italics, and links, plus more!).

thanks. i can't find thge on nswiki, though.

when did they bring that sight back? i thought it was shut down?

would you mind advertising this for me a bit. this is my first time doing a competition and i'm anxious. also, school starts soon, so...

yeah school sarted for me on monday. We got block scheduling this yar it was a drag. Boring. Good thing i got out today and yesterday with going to the hospital and all. No school tomorrow though, but a football game go Spot. And on another note how boring could my schedule be Buisness and You, Honors Earth and Space, Honors English, and Drivers Ed/ and information Lit every other day.(cant wait till the second semester History, German, Gym/Computer Concepts, and a little thing i hat Honores Geomentry god)

I've got English than Art/Music/Gym/or Spanish than Life Science than Bible (i'm at a Christian school) than math then preforming art then history.

boring, especially since i'm top in my class.

one thing, what genders are your threes? the rst i could tell, but since you all are like japanese and stuff, it's harder for me to tell, so if you could let me know, that'd be great

okay, scratch that, i only need gender confirmation from Dancougar.

thanks. i can't find thge on nswiki, though.

when did they bring that sight back? i thought it was shut down?

Also, I have a harsh desert which may be suitable for the next season.

I can see it now! Survivor: Deserts of Uiri!

approved!

also, next time i will probably hold a host/bid thread, so...

lol, yeah. Good idea on the host/bid thread. Maybe even two nations could jointly host it. We need it to be near the coast though, I suppose so that the sontestants have a source of drinking water. I'm going to research past survivor season to see what they did with desert seasons.

what we could do is have it be a joint miroxia-miamoria or miamoria-uiri. have one team in one nation, have one in the other, and put an island in the middle for challenges, or something...

Well, I have a couple of islands. I have decided that my rain forest would be more appropriate. Survivor: Forests of Avalon. Or we could do it on my islands of Pag & Kos. Survivor: Pag & Kos

Forest of Avalon sounds so...mysterious...

Of course, you'd have to win the bid for Survivor 2, but it seems you've got it in the bag...

Would you mind advertising this a bit, Uiri? School statrts, for me, soon and I wanted to get this RP going before it started.

Anyway, I'll be gone for I couple hours. My cats getting stitches removed, so g2g.

Is Jan a guy or a girl?

Is Jan a guy or a girl?

a guy.

thank you

Could we please have an ok gender ratio? I mean right now it is like 11:1 guys:girls. I'd make my character a girl but chances are an Uir woman wouldn't go on the show. Uiri is a very gender stereotypical society. If I must, I shall but it'll be wierd.

whats wrong with it?

okay so there's one girl...wouldn't that make the game better? shes single, so all the guys will go ga-ga over her (assumingly) making challenges, well...

i don't know where i'm going with this...

Yes, I know what you mean but I do believe that RL survivor tries to be as demographically representative as they can so unless the participating nations have a guy to girl ratio of 11:1 then it is unrealistic. Also, I think we should make it a concise group of nations, so that we can have good, consistent RPs each time. Not to exclude other nations but...we need consistency.

oh...

what should we do?

well, to start, because you have two contestants you could make atleast one a girl. That kind of evens it out. And if we prohibit any more guys from entry we should get a 10:4 ratio which isn't too bad considering some cultures might think it wierd for girls to want to go on the show.

i guess i can close sign ups and change my characters to women...

So then a ratio of 9:3? thats pretty good, considering it would be an entirely new show and be more assosciated with roughing it in the woods which is, (despite growing feminism) generally regarded as a male type thing.

right. sign-ups are closed. i will get the rp thread up shortly
