The Worst Bands/Singers Of All Time - Survivor: ROUND 10


Quote  |  Reply

Alright, here's how the game works...

A round lasts until ONE of the worst bands/singers of all time is voted out. Once that happens, a new round begins... Your job... is to get rid of the bands or singers that DON'T belong on the list. That means, by the end of the game, we'll know who the #1 WORST Artist of ALL TIME was, according to CC...

At the beginning of each round, each remaining band/artist gets 10 points.

Each user gets only *1* vote a day. That means if you vote twice (and sock puppets count! No using your sock puppets to vote twice! I'll know!), your second vote doesn't count.

Voting works like this... each person... gets to add 1 point to one artist (which will keep them on the list as worst of all time), and subtract 1 point from one artist.

Put a minus one for the band/performer you like.

Put a plus one for the band/performer you hate.

And that's it.

Once a user gets 0 points, they're off the list.

---------

The list, updated, looks like this...

Celine Dion - 10
Vanilla Ice - 10
The Backstreet Boys - 10
Milli Vanilli - 10
Yoko Ono - 10

---------

Neil Diamond was the first one eliminated. Apparently Neil ain't that bad after all.|
The Bee Gees were the second one eliminated.
John Denver was the third one eliminated.
ABBA was fourth (you sensing a theme here? I am!)
Michael Jackson was fifth
Barry Manilow was sixth
Michael Bolton Seventh

Britney Spears was Tenth

Who will be next?!?

How Voting Works (explained as best as I can)

Everyone gets *1* vote every day.

Everyone gets one +1 vote and one -1 vote..

The +1 raises a band's "Bad" Score.. and assures that they don't get voted off.

The -1 lowers a band's score... and can help you rescue your favorite bands from the annals of Bad Bandom.

Basically, the point is.. vote off the better bands.. and the band that remains is the worst of the worst, the truly terrible.

Got it? :) Feel free to ask questions. :)

Barry Manilow:  -1  (I like Barry Manilow!)

Vanilla Ice:  +1  (ughhhh...)
