You are one Jury away from making it.I should be on that list.![]()
It's a minimum of 3 jury appearances before one can be considered Elite.

Grammar lessons.I'll try it. Hell, what to I got to lose?
But it puts your stats up, and that system goes by stats.I take issue with that list. How can you really say that Ifor example, am better than Kessel Day when Kess has a win and is one for one. Playing more does not make you better player IMO.
I just think its absurd to call someone who lost the game better than the winner of the game just because the loser has lost more. Like you said, there is no valid way to evaluate strategy or what goes into each game, but at the end of the day, players like Kessel Day, Bella, etc have Ws and therefore are right up there with winners like Slipknot. I'm not saying they are better than Kip with the hat trick or two time winners like Jack and Erz, but a win is a win and I think having the ability to close the deal automatically puts you at the top of the list above players who cannot close the deal (no matter how many times they've made final three).
It's entirely plausible for a player to win while doing absolutely **** (Kmack!). It's significantly less likely for a person to make the jury three times unless they're doing something right. Besides, if you're not on the list, it doesn't mean you're worse. It just means you don't meet the minimum qualifications.
So you are asserting that the riding the coat-tail strategy is less valid than the "master mind" strategy. That alone is arguable. Furthermore, its really not an amazing feat to make jury three times when a lot of times you are playing with the same players as the previous game and walk into the game with several built in alliances. I'd say its much harder for someone like Kessel Day or Bella to enter the game for their first time and win than it is for someone to make jury three times when they have played triple that ammount of games.
You better hope every challenge asks for you to post TEDDY! only![]()

I think the better term to use instead of "Greatest Survivor Players" although in my opinion, they are, it should be named "Survivor All Stars" and while winning this thing is impressive in itself, 1 win shouldn't make you an All Star.I'm not saying their bad. I'm saying there isn't' enough information to properly judge them.
You're right about the list including people who made the jury 3/9 games they played(Although i don't' think anyone on the list really qualifies, they're all legitimate players). Unfortunately, there simply isn't enough information about the non jury portion of the games to really include that. So we use what we got. And It's clearly pretty on the ball.
Also, I considered throwing all the winners and runner ups onto that list, for good measure, but I decided against it. Like I say, there just isn't enough to data to really put them up among the elite.
is this going to be first come first serve, or will there be something to widdle it down to 24 should there be more signups than that?
