In Survivor VII, this challenge produced some of the most ingenious entries of that or any season. It’s difficult, so I suppose that’s why.
In this challenge, two people are having some sort of scene. There can be other people involved, but the main conflict or story has to involve these two characters. The word limit here will be 1000.
At the end of the story, one character’s life, or situation (the scope of the scene is up to you) will be better. The other’s will be worse.
Also, the two characters can’t talk. They will be silent for the entire scene.
A lot of last year’s players thought this sounded intimidating, but in the end they had one of the best weeks ever. I was going to cut and paste a couple of those entries here, but I couldn’t decide which to bring over so I’ll just link you to last year’s results.
To answer a potential question: yes, any other characters can talk; it’s just the main two may not.
Due Sunday at 2pm Central.
There will be two Immunities: Beau’s favorite, and mine. If we pick the same one, the second Immunity will go to my second favorite (and Beau and I will rotate for the tiebreaker). Remember, everyone will vote for the elimination this week, even the persons who win Immunity.
Any other questions can go here. Best of fortune, Survivors. We’re on the homestretch.

So I guess we can turn this in whenever we want.

Okay. Fixed. Breathing easily.
You’d think five years and seven previous games would help me remember such things occasionally, but nooooooo.

You need to get a template draft you can copy ‘n paste repeatedly. Then you’ll only be wrong on the few weeks the due date differs.

Yeah, normally in this situation I’d just rag on Dean since at some point I said “If I forget, it’s the usual,” but there’s really no reason for me to forget as often as I do.

But then I couldn’t have snarky posts that state the obvious!

Can the characters make any sound? For instance if the character gets punched in the stomach can he go “oomph”

I thought of that, but I was hoping nobody else would…

I’m sure there will be some awesome stuff, but trying to live up to last year’s entries will be tough. DK, Greek, Carter, Rob, Big Mak…those were all excellent. “The Punch” and “Trapped in a Box” are still two of my favs for the whole competition last year.
I will aim for relative adequatiousness.
Good thing Matt has two immunities actually. Keeps there from being 4 of 9 people with immunities come vote time this week. Crazy as it is.

Agree. I hate myself for loving Greekhouse’s submission so much.

Mak and Rob both did entries that week that are among my all-time favorites. Mak and DK’s were probably on that level for me, too. I definitely don’t expect to match that week – I doubt the game ever will – but I’m still pretty excited.
