ENTERTAINMENT SURVIVOR CHALLENGE

We are running a very exciting contest in the Entertainment channel - we are calling it the Entertainment Survivor Challenge. Each blog was divided onto a team, and over the next 8 weeks they will compete as teams (then individually) for a prize. The full rundown can be found here.

CHALLENGE #1: Valentine’s Day Theme - Bloggers were asked to put up a post inspired by Valentine’s Day, in any interpretation of that. Team #2 won the challenge, with the most comments (288 vs 142).

CHALLENGE #2 - Guest Posts - 5 blogs on each team competed in this challenge - the goal of which was to get as many guest posts fas possible (fan art, reviews, etc). Team #2 won again, with 15 points vs. 8 points. Team #1 had the opportunity to steal a blog from team #2, they picked DisneySociety.

CHALLENGE #3 - Battle of the Polls - The team with the highest average number of votes won (average being number of overall votes / number of blogs on team). Team #2 won with 3368 votes, an average of 198 per blog. Team #1 had 1481 votes, an average of 105 per blog.

CHALLENGE #4 - Lists - Bloggers were challenge to create lists of 50 news items or facts - teach news item or fact must link somewhere, and that link cannot be used in more than one item. They were judged on number of comments, diversity of items, interestingness of items, how ‘on topic’ the list was, how ’spiced up’ the post was with design, the cohesiveness of the theme, and how quickly the list was posted. The top 3 scoring blogs were averaged and points were deducted from the final score for any blog that did not participate. This challenge ended yesterday.

Team #1: Couch Potatoes

4 blogs did not participate. The highest scoring blogs were Gossip Girl Report (60 points), The 4400 Guide (57 points) and Idol Stalker (62 points). With an average score of 60, and with 12 deductions for non-participating blogs, the final score was 48.

Team #2: TV Addicts

4 blogs did not participate. The highest scoring blogs were Soaps on ABC (59 points), Prison Break Buff (59 points) and Grey’s Anatomy News (58 points). With an average score of 59, and with 12 deductions for non-participating blogs, the final score was 47.

It was a close race, but Team #1 came out on top. 4 blogs from team 2 were eliminated: Showtime Fan, Style-Television, Top Model Gossip, VH1 Reality World.
