EVERY OLD IDEA IS NEW AGAIN

For those of you who haven't been visiting StickFight.net on a regular basis (and if you haven't, what the fuck is wrong with you?!), you may have missed the rebirth of an old pet concept of mine.

Perhaps some of you remember "Survival Of The Least Objectionable". Perhaps not. Perhaps because when I tried it out on you, my precious posse of pals, you reacted to it with as much enthusiasm as Marvin The Paranoid Android at an "Up With People" Super Bowl halftime extravaganza.

The concept, for those who forgot, was to take a group of people (fictional or non-) deemed rather annoying by the general public, and vote to kill off the most annoying of all, one by one, until we are left with the least objectionable of the lot.

About a week ago I gave new life to SOTLO in the Stickfight forums, and it garnered a nice voter turnout. The contestants for Season One were The Castaways (Gilligan, Skipper, etc.), and much as I expected, Mary Ann emerged the sole survivor.

And so I have now rushed headlong into the second season with The Brady Bunch as the next group of victims...er, contestants.

To vote and weigh in with your thoughts, simply follow the StickFight link on the right, and you're sure to see the latest SOTLO round listed under "Latest Forum Threads".
