    Ultimate Game Show Host Survivor: Tournament of Overrated Hosts 9: The Return!

    If you haven't had enough of the overrated hosts, here are 48 more clawing and scratching their way, trying to evacuate the Overrated Alley. It's dark and smelly in there, I might add. The only way a host is getting out of there is for them to win the Masters or higher.

    Survivor 1 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Pat Sajak
    Survivor 2 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Marc Summers
    Survivor 3 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Ryan Seacrest
    Survivor 4 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Regis Philbin
    Survivor 5 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Bob Barker
    Survivor 6 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Allen Ludden
    Survivor 7 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Bob Eubanks
    Survivor 8 Monumentally Overrated Weinerdog: Jeff Probst

    If you're not familiar with UGSHS, the trick here is to vote for the host you don't believe is overrated. Here are some rules. They will be a hybrid of the Masters and ToL rules. I tried to simplify them for some of you. Let's see what you think.

    1. Five votes will eliminate a host, but I will add one for every two divisions that we advance until we get to 9 votes.

    2. One vote per day only. I will try to update around 9 PST, if I update early, you're okay to vote again.

    3. Any player who has voted correctly 7 or more times will be allowed to "Seek Revenge" ONE time on behalf of a host. You know how this works. You may bring back any of the last six hosts that have been eliminated, but only within three days of the elimination. No player or host may seek revenge more than once.

    4. You may vote for a host up to seven times, but may not vote someone off by yourself, you also may not vote for a host four days in a row or 5 times in six days. If a host has "sought revenge", then you may vote up to seven more times for that host, but these rules will still apply.

    5. Freeze Frame can be used up to 2 times on any host (except for bonuses). Cannot cast a vote against a host, Takes effect the minute it's called. Lasts 3 days. Any attempt to use a freeze frame on a completely voteless host, voting for a host and putting a FF on the host in the same day, or a host that has not gotten a vote in 5 days will be considered burning (see rule 11).

    6. BRE\-/K DOWN! can be used one time per host -- subtracts 4 votes from a host's total (not less than zero). May be used a 2nd time if a host has had revenge sought. Can be used during or in conjunction with a freeze frame. Does not affect sudden death voting.

    7. 10-spot works like Sudden Death -- you nominate a host for the 10-spot and people vote on whether it would require 10 votes to eliminate a host or not. Majority rules and it has to be a majority.

    7a. 30-spot. 2/3 majority required. Will require 30 votes to eliminate a host. A host must have the 10 before you can nominate them for the 30.

    8. +/- (plus-minus): This feature will add two votes to a host's tally while subtracting two votes from another host's tally (cannot put a host below zero or over the vote off point), hence the name. You may use one plus and one minus per host, but you may NOT cancel a +/- with another +/-. You may NOT combine +/- with a regular vote.

    (i.e. the move in red is illegal...
    a + to Tom Bergeron, a - to Billy Bush
    later: a + to Billy Bush, a - to Tom Bergeron)


    (The following move in green is not illegal
    a + to Jimmy Carr, a - to Megan Johnson
    later: a + to Anderson Cooper, a - to Jimmy Carr)


    9. LEGAL DISCLAIMER: This game is a parody. No intent is made or implied to malign, demean or insult anyone associated with game shows, past or present.

    10. Still Frame -- you nominate a host for Still Frame and the next day you will vote on whether the host is worthy of this honor. The percentage of 'yes' votes will award a still frame on this scale:

    0 - 49.9% = no Still Frame awarded
    50 - 66.6% = normal Still Frame awarded -- 1 extra Freeze Frame.
    66.7% - 99.9% = high Still Frame awarded -- 2 extra Freeze Frames.
    100% = unanimous Still Frame awarded -- 3 extra Freeze Frames.

    If a host is nominated for Still Frame, you may not vote that host off until a Still Frame has been decided on them.

    11. Any attempt to abuse or subvert the features will result in a double whammy against the player. It will automatically generate a one-strike penalty and I may award an extra Freeze Frame or BRE\-/K DOWN! (up to a maximum of 5) in more severe cases, if I feel a feature is being "burned".

    12. Unlucky 7: Nominate hosts in pairs. Next day you vote on the person who you want to curse. The host with more votes gets cursed. In the event of a tie, both hosts will be cursed and both will require 7 votes to be eliminated.

    That's it! Everyone have fun!

    Vote: I'm going to vote Victoria Coren seeing as I only really put her in because I couldn't think of another host at the time...

    U7: Tom Bergeron vs. Bert Convy. (even though there's no immunity in this game)

    Vote: I'll be nice to Matthew Allwright. It wasn't his fault that The Exit List was so short-lived.

    Unlucky 7: Bergeron and Wilson. One acted like one way too often, the other one asked about them way too often.

    Anderson Cooper. I thought he was decent.

    Unlucky Seven: I'm tempted to no vote the first one, but I guess I'll go with Convy. And since I can't vote for both of them in the second matchup (damn you, sematics), I guess I'll vote for Ludwig.

    UPDATE TIME! I'm going to be nice to you... and check out the Unlucky 7's!

    Tom Bergeron 1 vs. Bert Convy 2
    Dr. Robi Ludwig 2 vs. Carnie Wilson 2

    Three curses given out today!

    48 remain and three are cursed. You may NOW vote for today! I'd like that. I'm surprised no one brought up to me that since Greenberg was a Masters winner, he's got a ticket out of here. He will be replaced by The Bank Job's George Lamb. Hey, that's fun! VOTE!

    For some reason, I felt like karma was going to bite me on the *** there.

    Wayne Brady's not bad, but every time he teases for a car when there won't be one, that gets annoying fast.

    According to you, Knight should be banished to a place with gay men.

    Bert Convy. Not going anywhere anytime soon.

    Unlucky Seven: Combs (not giving both of them nice folks a curse)

    Given my history with my brother making those comments towards me, I don't think I'd do that to anyone, unless they really pissed me off. Plus, you seem to forget I did say he was not overrated.
