The COUPLES Survivor Game

[speedy]

yo, i'm new to this forum and, exactly what is a survivor game?

[redfirefly124]

Hi speedy, welcome to SPCNET, basically a survivor game is when we have a list of characters/pairings/martial arts/etc. and each person gets a turn in adding a point to one and subtracting a point to another. They each start out with x number of points. Then, later on, we get to start subtracting more points at a time.

The couples i support most are GJ/HR, RYY/LHC, AZhu/QF.

For me, GJ/HR is number one, closely followed by RYY/LHC, closely followed by AZ/QF.

Anyways, here's the list so far:
LOCH
-Huang Rong and Guo Jing
-Mu Nian Ci and Yang Kang
-Feng Heng (Huang Rong's mother) + Huang Yaoshi.
-Yinggu + Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing.
-Bao Xi Ruo and Yang Tie Xin (thnx Sparky)

-Yin Liting and Yang BuHui
-Yang Xiao and Ji Hiao Fu

-Li Qiushui + 3 husbands: Ding Chunqiu , Wuyazi, the Emperor of the Xixia dynasty
-Duan Zhenchung and wives

Xia Ke Xing
-A Xiu + Shi Potian
-Granny Shi + Bai Zizai.
-Ding Minru + Shi Qing. (the parents of Shi Potian).

Hua Wu Que and Tie Xin Lan
-Jiang Feng and Yuet No

Eagles Flying in September(GL)
-Ye Kai and Ding LingLin

Full Moon Curved Sabre (GL)
-Ding Pang and Qing Qing

Approve? Disapprove?

Another thing: How do you want to operate this? Here's my idea:
1) When there's 15 couples left start minus 2 plus 2.
2) 10 couples left start minus 3 plus 3
3) 5 couples left start minus 4 plus 4
4) Start with 20 points
What do you think?

[Felix]

yes, Xu Zhu called her Meng Gu.

The ralation between Lin Chaoying n Wang Chongyang is far different from that between Li Qiushui n Wuyazi + Ding Chunqiu + Xixia emperor. AFAIK, according to sis Athena, in the 3rd edition of DGSD, Li Qiushui married them in turn. Err, and I'm not sure about their affairs in the 2nd edition.

If what you said is true and that LQS were married at one time or another to those 3, then I agree they can be an option.

Then again, I think we are only counting from 2nd editions. Because Mu Wan Qing and Duan Yu are not part of this game and Duan Yu and Wang Yu Yan are.

[PJ]

For practical purposes, I think it would be helpful to keep the list under 25 contestants.

[redfirefly124]

Good idea, PJ...maybe we should take off the lesser couples....
Should we make it just Jin Yong?

[Sparky]

1) When there's 15 couples left start minus 2 plus 2.
2) 10 couples left start minus 3 plus 3
3) 5 couples left start minus 4 plus 4
4) Start with 20 points
What do you think?

I was thinking we start with 10 points. Then it's faster and the unliked couples are gone immediately. As for the +3/-3 thing, I think it'd be better to do +1/-3, and then maybe +2/-4. That way you can ensure just because a couple has overzealous fans that are always online doesn't mean that couple will be invincible.

I don't think I'll have the time to vote so I'm going to follow the trend and just list couples I support as well...
1) GJ/HR
2) ZWJ/ZM
3) XF/AZ - Xiao Feng is not a homosexual!
4) LHC/RYY
5) YG/XLN
6) YK/MNC - I hate both of their characters, one is materialistic and deceitful, the other is naive, but I actually really like them together

Will not support...
1) DY/WYY - that's like worship basically
2) WXB and all seven wives - I hate polygamy

Everyone else I'm really quite neutral.

[PJ]

I would like to nominate 2 heroic/faithful couples:

1. Wu Santong and Third Madam Wu - she stood by him through the tough times while honoring the etiquettes of the martial world, and ultimately sacrificed her life for him

2. Hu Yidao and Madam Hu

[PJ]

In order to keep the list < 25, sacrifices must be made. I would recommend taking out some candidates that have very low chances AND very low level of support currently.

Here are the ones that I would personally opt for taking out:

-Yinggu + Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing
-Bao Xi Ruo and Yang Tie Xin (thnx Sparky)
-Wanyan Hong Lie and Bao Xi Ruo ---> take off?
-Ying Gu and Zhou Bo Tong ---> take off?
-Lu Guan Ying and Chen Yao Jia

-Yelu Yan and Wu Brother
-Wanyan Ping and Wu Brother
-Gongsun Zhi and Qiu Qian Chi - it would be hilarious if this duo won!
-Lu Zhan Yuan and wife-->names please?
-Lu Zhan Yuan's brother and his wife--->names please?

-1st Wudang brother Song and "his unnamed wife"

TLBB/DGSD
-Madam Ma + Ma Dayuan.
-Yao Baifeng (Duan Yu's mother) + Duan Zhengchun - considering the playboy he is, I don't think this couple would get a lot of votes. I would recommend just keeping "Duan Zhengchun and his mistresses"
-Li Qiushui - does anyone really want to vote for this s.l.u.t?

[GuGu]

I won't be here for the game, but my support goes to....

1. YG + XLN
2. HR + GJ
3. LHC + RYY


Please vote for them...

[speedy]

sounds like fun, i'll join the game i'm going to hunt down every couple with the names duan yu(i hate stalkers), xu zhu(he's a monk, how can he have a wife), and weixiaobao(obviously).

[Huang Rong]

Feng Heng (Huang Rong's mother) + Huang Yaoshi.
Yin Susu + Zhang Cuishan.

These will be the only 2 couples that I add + votes to.

[speedy]

-Ning Zhong Ze and Yue Bu Qun
-Yue Ling Shan and Lin Ping Zhi

These two couples should be take off too.

We still have too many couples though....

[Demonic Swordsman]

Li Ping and Guo Xiao Tian

Bu Jie Monk and Mute Granny

id def get rid of these 2...others not too sure

get rid of the lesser known couples..just keep the main couples that everyone knows about

[PJ]

get rid of the lesser known couples..just keep the main couples that everyone knows about

That's the basic idea, however it's fun to throw in some lesser known candidates to see how things play out.

If we had to shorten the list a bit more, I would recommend opting these out. TO EVERYONE: if you feel strongly about any of the following candidates, please speak up.

-Li Ping and Guo Xiao Tian
-Bu Jie Monk and Mute Granny (Yi Lin's parents) Yes or No?
-Yin Liting and Yang BuHui
-Yang Xiao and Ji Hiao Fu
-Xiao Feng's real mother (being killed in the Yanmen Frontier Post massacre) and Xiao Yuanshan
-Granny Shi + Bai Zizai.
-He/Wen/Xia Qingqing + Yuan Chengzhi

The exclusion of the above 7 takes us to exactly 25 candidates.

By the way, Hu Yidao is from FLYING FOX, while Wu Santong and his wife are mentioned in ROCH.

[Sparky]

-Li Ping and Guo Xiao Tian
-Bu Jie Monk and Mute Granny (Yi Lin's parents) Yes or No?
-Yin Liting and Yang BuHui
-Yang Xiao and Ji Hiao Fu
-Xiao Feng's real mother (being killed in the Yanmen Frontier Post massacre) and Xiao Yuanshan
-Granny Shi + Bai Zizai.
-He/Wen/Xia Qingqing + Yuan Chengzhi

Hey hey hey don't eliminate Yang Xiao and Ji Xiaofu...! Or Yin Liting and Yang Buhui. I'd say it's better to just eliminate some of the more obscure couples. Like Madam Ma + Ma Dayuan and Xu Zhu's parents.

I personally don't think you should eliminate wen qingqing and yuan chengzhi. Since they were such a cute couple ^^ but yea, if nobody wants them there then. . . well,yea. . .since they're not really my favourite couple.

[Demonic Swordsman]

i like wen qingqing and yuan chengzhi

i think what sparky said about getting rid of Madam Ma + Ma Dayuan and Xu Zhu's parents is a good idea
