Just wondering.

At some point, you'd have to... or vote off your favorite games. Just because there are lots of people here that weren't around for the early 90's games. I only started watching around 1998, and that was watching the build. Started watching the games the next year, when the West Coast finally got a regional.

BTW, when is Lunacy going to enter and either get shot down or win the whole thing?

(And I think the reason 2000 went so fast is because people thought it was the 4v0...)

Probably because if people didn't than few people would still be voting and the games would mostly be voted off in backwards order.

edit: Eric beat me

I peronally have been looking up the games online and watching youtube videos and such. I have a decent grasp for the games, but the only ones I've voted for are 2000 and then 2002 when 2000 went out, then 2006 when 2002 went out.(2002 and 2000) being games I never saw live. I do admit it is hard to vote for games you haven't seen, but if we only did this with people that had been involved in all of the games, we probably wouldn't have too many people voting.

Perhaps we should go the American Idol route with the "judge's save" and have a separate poll to let one year's game back into the main poll, voting for which game you want to keep.

I think this would be awesome! It would be interesting to see what would be voted back in, a game that was cut at the beginning, or a game recently cut.

To add more fun to this, it would be awesome if your rookie year listed determined how far back you were allowed to vote a game back in, that way you had to experience the game in order to save it. This would take forever to do though. If time only weren't a factor, everything would be done.

You can change your rookie year, i know that people will probably know if you say you've been around since 92 but what about people who say their rookie year is the first time they ever saw a regional? Does that qualify as a rookie or does that just make them a spectator and their real rookie year is the 1st year they were on an actual FRC team?

I don't like the idea of bringing them back. It's taken us this long to get down to 4. Besides, this is Survivor not Big Brother.
