BONUS POLL #2: According to DBSTalk members, which Jaburu Lady is the most popular?

[Mark Lamutt]

BONUS POLL #2

This poll is a departure from the other polls going on in the contest. This one is specifically designed to break you away from the spoiler sites and make you think about the game a little bit.

The question: According to the players of this game, which remaining Jaburu member is the most popular?

Everyone who votes in this poll gains 1 point automatically. Then, the "correct" answer is worth 5 points. The "correct" answer is defined as the answer that ends up being the majority opinion when the poll closes. In other words, whichever lady gets the most votes will be the correct answer.

This poll closes next Wednesday night at the same time as the other polls. And, the poll results will be hidden until the poll closes. Good luck!

AND NO TALKING ABOUT HOW YOU VOTED!

Bonus Poll #3 will come next week, and will deal with the Tambaqui tribe.

Remember - to be elligible for the full participation point bonus, you must vote in all polls - including the bonus polls!

[Mark Lamutt]

As of right now, the voting results (that you can't see) show a dead tie between two of these ladies. :D

[dbkelly]

by "most popular" you mean...

Who is the hottest?
Who is playing the best game?
Who has the biggest ... FEET?

[Mark Lamutt]

By "most popular" I mean the one that ends up with the most votes in the poll. Use whatever definition of "popular" you want to make your choice.

You can try to figure out what everyone else thinks "popular" means, thereby figuring out how they voted, and then vote the same...or you can vote for the one you like the best, or is the best looking, or has the best implants, or is playing the game the best, or has lost the most weight, or who would make the best wife, or mother, or who rolls in the dirt the best, or who cleans up the camp the most, or whatever.

Everyone is defining that for themselves - that's what makes this poll random and spoiler free. :)

(And yes, I know this is a cruel poll to some, but it opens the game back up to the people playing who either don't watch the show as religiously as we do, or who don't like spoilers.)

[dbkelly]

Cool deal! Just checking! :lol:

[buzzdalf]

So Mark, I'm guessing you voted 1st in this poll. Otherwise, couldn't you just wait to see who we all vote for and pick that person?

[Mark Lamutt]

Actually, I did vote first in the poll (for someone other than is leading at the moment, BTW) so that I could see the results. Not that it matters for anything other than bragging rights for me anyways as I can't win anything. :)

The results are no longer tied - one of the ladies is pulling ahead of the others.

[rlindabury]

Why is it that I see 0 in the poll results for every lady?  Seems to me that once I've voted I should be able to see who's winning.  Is there something wrong?

[Danny R]

If you could see how others voted, you could potentially change your vote to join the winning position.

And even if you couldn't change your vote for this particular poll, if the results are published then its no longer secret (someone would post them somewhere), which means people who vote later have an advantage over folks voting earlier.

By keeping the vote secret, the best a disreputable person could accomplish is perhaps polling fellow members, and voting simularly. However like any secret, such dishonest folks are more likely to be discovered or turned in the more folks they poll, thus increasing their chances the admins will find out and bar them for cheating.

As for my own strategy, I voted for Jo Anna. This is really a trick question put into place by the evil immunity idol.

[Mark Lamutt]

Results will be revealed later tonight after the poll closes.

[rlindabury]

Ah.. I see.. I guess I just don't think about all the devious and dishonest ways there are to circumvent these kind of things. :D

You're right..best to keep it a secret until the end. I can't wait!

[Karl Foster]

Man,

I can't stand the little clique that has formed with the "pretty girls." What a bunch of lazy, stuck-up, b*****s. Just my opinion.

[Mark Lamutt]

I agree, Karl...

[Danny R]

Ah crap. You folks voted the wrong way. ;)

[Mark Lamutt]

Ain't that the truth, Danny! Looks like the best implants won the day...

[Lee L]

The best? I'll go for most outrageously too large and bulbous for the implantee, but not the best. I'm sure real plastic surgeons all over hate seeing that travesty every week.

[Maniacal1]

OK, I'll defend your right to vote for air bags on a stick if you feel you must. But shouldn't the one person who voted for Jeanne get some reward here? :)

[Mark Lamutt]

Voting summary and Bonus Poll #2 results are now online for your viewing pleasure. We've had a lead change, and there is now a single person in the lead! (At least until tonight...)

[buzzdalf]

To defend my vote, this poll was to vote for who you thought the most people would vote for, not necessarily vote for your personal favorite.
I voted for Heidi predicting she'd get the most votes, but my favorite Jaburu is really Deena.
:)

[Mark Lamutt]

Exactly buzzdalf.

And a head's up so you can start thinking about it...the men's poll goes online tomorrow. Same kind of thing.

[Danny R]

We've had a lead change, and there is now a single person in the lead! (At least until tonight...)

He'll keep the lead through the week at least based on how folks nearby voted. However next week's bonus poll could easily change things.

[brentp]

Well, . . . now I guess I understand why they say blonds have more fun, . . . :) Darn, . . . should have gone with that in the first place, . . . I just don't think she sounds like that nice of a person.

Very interesting voting summary, . . . this was a tough week, and I see that although many voted for Shawna, . . . many (like me) had a tough time deciding which tribe she might be on and which one would win the IC. I bought into the swap, . . . but the evidence on who went where was weak. And then there is the outside possibility that 2 leave this week, . . .

Guess we will all know tonight!!!! :shrug:
