What have you guys perverted Survivor into? Kid Kyoto started this little forum fun and it all made sense in the begining. Now you are voting all backwards and honestly you should have stopped voting way back on page 3-4 becasue all the remaining entries are blatant rip-offs of historical cultures/armies. Please consider the consequences of how you set up the canidates when you start it off or even better just let Survivor vote itself into extinction and is it just me or have the quality of all the Survivors been going down hill for about the last 3 or 4 of them.

This really should've stopped pages ago. Both of these are blatant ripoffs of historical armies/cultures as has everything since page 3-4. I say we keep this survivor going forever to prevent yet another ridiculous one from cropping up.
