Hello! Project Survivor '25 ~Discussion Thread~

[boinsie]

Bit of a late start this year, but,H!PS is back for its 24th year!!

HELLO! PROJECT SURVIVOR 2025!

For those that don't know or have forgotten , Hello! Project Survivor is our annual tournament to determine the favorite (or arguably just least-hated?) Hello! Project member! It's loosely based off of the hit CBS reality gameshow where competitors are put on an island and made to fight and be voted out until one reigns supreme. H!PS is almost exactly the same game--except that it's played on a forum, the girls are voted out via polls, and most of the fighting is done between forum members.
Specific voting rules are likely to change from round to round, so keep a vigilant eye!

Without (much) further ado, here are this year's players!
(No Eripon because she graduates before the game is over, and no Hayashi because she hasn't officially joined yet!)

65 is one more than last year's count of 64, and we somehow managed that. I believe in us!

I've actually been watching a ton (>20 seasons) of Survivor this past few months--should we try to work in Hidden Immunity Idols, Reward competitions, etc this year??

[Shoujo Q]

How about a secret new member/voted off member added halfway through the competition to throw off everyone’s game like Top Chef Last Chance Kitchen?
They do it twice during the run of the show where one person that left the game gets to come back onto the show. But that’s just an example. I don’t watch a lot of competitive reality shows so that’s my only example.

But instead of knowing who you’re voting for you just put numbers up and vote that way and only the poll master knows who will be coming back into the game so there isn’t any favoritism and it’ll be a fun surprise to shake things up. All hinges on the fact of how many options you can make in a poll so it might need to be done early or middle of the game.

When i saw the thread down the bottom i was Suuuuper excited


In terms of shake up…. Hmm - this will be tricky because this is more Big Brother ish than Survivor ish, but what if everyone has one veto (and only one, not one per round, just one for the whole game)
And how it works if a user thinks a favourite is going to be eliminated in this round they can use that veto for that girl while voting - but its a gamble because if that girl didn’t end up having the most votes to be eliminated then the veto is wasted

Should also add that the Veto rule only applies once and does not apply for the final round otherwise we would probably have a looooot of final rounds

I'm playing for chaos.

[Nayoko-Kihara]

I'm looking forward to this. The image cards look great!

[boinsie]

Had some distractions last night--first polls will now be up early this afternoon. Sorry for the delay!

[boinsie]

The first polls are up in the subforum!

"But boin, that's unfair to the groups with fewer members!"
Take it up with Eripon, man.

Trolly Problem: H!P Edition.

That's a nice 4 way tie Ocha has.

It'd be a real shame if Kubota was sacrificed....

(New polls will be up tomorrow. )
