Still working on pulling all the data together, everyone. Try not to be too impatient.
I'd say the results in the show were pretty surprising to everyone, including me. Made for a good watch though, in my opinion. And you gotta love Jeff Probst as the reunion host! :)

Preliminary results have been taken down because I found an error in my calculations during the verification check.

Somebody will kill me for asking this..
Who was the worst predictor who participated in the polls?

Thanks to you Mark for puttingthis together. While my prognostication skills suck, I really enjoyed this season of Survivor and your contest made it even more fun to watch.
The conclusion was great, of course I think I missed every poll so I didn't even make my objective of passing Bill R.
Thanks again for all the work it took to administer this game. For everyone else, go buy something from the sponsors that provided prizes.

Well I managed to get 115 points without watching the show just by randomly picking by running mouse up and down over the selections....

I'll look it up later on this week for you, Z'Loth. You want to know who had the worst record of making picks, but still voted in every poll?

Also I feel it should be noted that in addition to guessing wrong on almost every poll (I did get a couple right on the final show), the person that I said would be the first voted out, won the game.
The last 3 times, the person that after the first glance at the pictures and profiles at the CBS website I picked to go out first has been the second place finisher.
Man, I was really starting to get a feeling for picking Jenna about 11:00 on Sunday but I kept Matt as my choice. Thanks for the contest Mark.

That's correct. This is just for fun, BTW.

So close! I can't believe there are so many ties after 3 months and 200 points. Crazy!
Mark, thanks again for another wonderful season. I think we're all grateful you are NOT playing this game!
Do you think it would be possible to throw up the voting summary for the Finale. I really curious how others voted. I was way out of it after wk12, and finished better than expected. NOt in the points mind you, but a respectable position.
Thanks again for all your hard work and dedication is running the game!
<dreaming> for S7 think 921! :)

:D...That's all I'll say... :D
I'll try to get the voting summaries up here sometime today. In the process of verifying the results as I type this.

Excellent! looking forward to it.
BTW, do you know where to the dbstalk.com servers are located at? According to the timestamp of your last post it should be GMT-2 which is classified at Mid_Atlantic. Obvisouly, this can't be right, so is the server clock right?
Mark Lamutt

The servers are located in a top secret location 1.7 miles below the surface of the Atlantic, so yeah the time's right. :D :lol:
Or, you might not have your time offset set correctly in your user profile. :)

Thank goodness, the time thing has been driving me crazy! Thanks for the suggestion. I guess I missed that when I registered.

I always wondered if Atlantis had a WAN when it went down. Now we know.

You're welcome, everyone. I've really enjoyed doing this for all of you. Just wish I could win as well...I'd have 2 shiny 721 receivers sitting on my shelves now... :)
Looking forward to next season!
I'm about half way through the data validation process. Bear with me a little longer. Have to make sure there's no errors in there.

Ok, I did find an error in my final week tallies that change the preliminary results that were posted above. That's why they are no longer there.
One more check, and the final results will be online Friday. Winners will then be contacted. Thanks for your patience everyone. Been a lot of data to go through.
