Survivor 45: Blog Pool OPENS! Tribe Breakdown

 

Come one, come all! The blog pool is OPEN for Survivor 45! Due to illness and BB25, I'm getting a late start on this. The season premiere is Wednesday, September 27 at 8PM ET/PT. The episodes will all be 90 minutes this season. We usually reassign the first castaway but chances are the castaway will be cast out before the blog pool is set up. If so, no reassignments will happen. The blog pool cut-off is Friday, September 29, 5PM ET/8PM PT. All entries must be submitted in comments on THIS post, nowhere else!

The Lovely Lifeguard SueGee has once again graciously offered to run the blog pool for the show. She, but of course, rocks!

I want in! What do I do?

If you want in on the blog pool, you need to sign up in the comments of this post and this post only! Please don't try signing up on any other posts -- we might miss your comment.

Is there money involved in this?

Of course not! You needn't pay anything to get into the pool. You don't need to buy a pool pass or anything! Mind you, you don't win any money either. What you do win is bragging rights until the next season and the smugness that goes with it.

How does it work?

Lifeguard SueGee makes random picks for the castaways and the blog folks. You cheer on that castaway all season until they either win or get their torch snuffed along the way.

When is the cut-off for entering?

As stated above, all pool requests must be in comments to this here post and submitted by Friday, September 29, 5PM ET/8PM PT. Be there or be square.
