Hype Survivor HYPE SURVIVOR 21 - Day One, Part One discussion thread!

Normally, I'd agree but while I'm not saying he's biased or that he carries a grudge but you have a player who was voted out by certain people. How can you overlook that?
But isn't everyone voted out by certain people?

And doesn't everyone have some personal feelings about everyone else on this board? I mean, I have no clue who voted me out, but I'd still have a natural bias towards hunter or Bella, and against you or Toven.
 
Myself and the ghost host would supervise very carefully.

Nothing against Showtime but he may or may not have had alliances, so there was favoritism.

You should really pick someone not involved in this particular game.
 
im sure there's other people willing to guest host who havent participated in the game.

Which is why you shouldn't be allowed to guest host either. I'd say that about anyone though.

Is there a 100% absolute, perfect way to guard against cheating? No. But something like this scenario just seems not the wisest of choices.
 
I shall take Erz's point to heart. But just for the record, am I the only one who appreciates the irony of Toven, the only host to ever get caught cheating in the game's history calling someone biased?
 
They all have valid points Matt. I know I wouldn't carry any bias, because it is just a game for me, and they voted me out for a strategic reason. Even though you and I know that I wouldn't be biased, they wouldn't know. It would be like a cloud hanging over the game most likely.

I was just busting your chops Matt.

And that is why Showtime is classier than all of you :cmad:

Aren't you the one who wnats to kick Asteroid out just cause he's annoying?

But my bias has nothing to do with this game. That's my point. Just because you get someone who hasn't played in the game, doesn't mean they're going to be any fairer of a judge than Showtime. Do you understand my point there?

And, honestly, I think Showtime would be more fair than most. I mean, I don't know him too well, but he's always seemed like a stand up guy, and being a lawyer, he's bound to know something about disregarding bias.
 
What would a guest host do exactly?

Create some sort of challenge, judge it whether it be answers, or some sort of creativity challenge, game, etc.

Declare a winner.

Have a vote, then kick out the one with the most votes.

Honestly I have no doubt Showtime would be a more honest guest host than Brutal.

Just like if Zer00 (God Rest His Soul) was wanted to guest host, he would be far less honest than Showtime.

..and that was how many years ago? ive grasped the concept of not crossing the player/host line while hosting games, if you played in any current games ive hosted youd realize that. apparently not though, cause bringing up my hosting past really has nothing to do with this game and only makes me look bad. :whatever: way to go
