We Have a Winner

The Survivor Series began in March, and we’ve had a lot of fun with it.  Every week players had a new game to play, and I think a lot of them were unexpected.  I tried to keep everything reasonably fair each week.  And by that I mean we didn’t have games that were directed towards barroom athletes, regular athletes, brainiacs, or any other specialty.

If you could do 50 push-ups, it won’t help you take down the “Card Sharks” contest.  If you can throw back to back 50 games on the dartboard, that doesn’t help when the game is “Rock, Paper, Scissors”.  And if you know every President from every country on the face of the planet, it won’t help you in “Tin Can Alley”. 

That doesn’t mean that people checked their competitive spirits at the door.  I’ve never seen a more highly charged game of “Don’t Break the Ice” than I did when Aaron took on Ray in the finals.  When you put the spotlight on, any kind of game becomes fun and interesting.  the Wii Hula Hoop contest was certainly, uh, interesting

a big thanks goes out to everyone who made it regularly, it was a good time.  it was interesting.  it was fun, and funny, and i’m glad we did it!

unfortunately, all good things must come to an end.  and last night was the final resolution of Dorko’s Survivor. 

Ray and Larry, the final two candidates came in on Saturday Night past and presented their cases to the final council.  only after hearing both speeches were players allowed to vote for the person they wanted to be the winner of Dorko’s Survivor. here’s how the votes went . . .
