Does the bonus go down as the time gets closer to the airing of the episode?

Yes.  Possibly, by around this time tomorrow the bonus will disappear.  You can still make your picks before the show starts, only you'll miss out on the bonus.

Thanks, that's what I figured but wasn't sure. I already made my votes and it said 35.5% Bonus. Looking forward to some fun during Survivor!

Y/W peach and welcome to the game!  We're very happy you joined! :jumpy:

What I usually do is go ahead & answer the questions...even if most of it is purely guesswork.  Later, I may change answers based upon spoiler info.  By so doing, I may lose some or all of my bonus, but if my answers end up correct, it usually pays off.  (sometimes it doesn't!) Anyway you look at it, it's a gamble unless you absolutely KNOW for sure about everything that happens in each episode!!  (which I sure don't! )

Have fun! :dancer:
Rudaaaay  ;D

WOW points for what survivors do are way down.  Gets a vote 1 point!

I picked 4 and put they introduce themself
Wise choice, Wendy!  :tup:  Hope the rest of the season has a lot more points...like they usually do!

I love this game.  I will definitely be back this season too Cheers to everyone in this tribe! 
May we work hard enough to grab that #1 spot! :beer2:
Yeah that! And, have a blast while achieving it! :fun  :fun

In Season14, Refaforu stayed at #3 in the Overall Top 50 Tribes most of the time, and ended up ranking #5!  Here's hoping we can do as Mark says...
Grab the #1 spot...THIS season!  :yess:  :jumpy: :wohoo:

WE CAN DO IT!  :cheer: :ghug:

I am all signed up and answered the first set of questions.   :cheer: :cheer:

Missed the bonus apparently (or overlooked it).  I'll try to answer early next time.

cajunlady, Welcome to the FS game and Tribe Refaforu!  Happy to have you join us!

I'm sure you got a bonus.  I just checked the site and there's still a 25% bonus available at appx 4am ET:
"Time left to lock in 25.0% bonus: 1 hour, 21 minutes, 21 seconds"

You probably did the game when the bonus was 27.5%.  :tup:

Oh, and there isn't a bonus every week.  We never know for sure when there will be one!  Over the season, they have it 4-6 times? Not sure.  I'll ck last season and find out. 

Also, the bonus doesn't start out the same everytime.  This time it started with 40%.  Sometimes, it starts with 25%!   (now that I'm saying this, they'll start doing it every week at 40%!  :rotf: :lol:  ...which would be great, huh?! )

15/17 have made their picks so far.  Peach and realityjunkie are the only 2 that haven't so we're starting out with good participation.  Good luck to everyone and don't forget to make your picks every week.  A -0- figured in to the averages can really drag the scores down so if you know there's a good chance you won't be able to make your picks some weeks contact another tribemate with your UN and PW and let them make picks for you.  It's always good to have a backup plan!

My picks for what they're worth:

How many times will the Great Wall of China be shown during the show. (For this question, shots during the opening credits will count, shots during the "next time on Survivor" segments will not.) (35 points)   One to three times
 
Will the TV audience be shown what is the hidden immunity idol is and where one is hidden at some point during this episode? (25 points) Yes   

What method will the first tribe to get fire use to start that fire? (40 points)    By winning flint or matches in a challenge

How are the initial tribes seeded? (30 points)    One or more survivors will make the selections

During Jeff's questioning during tribal council, how many Survivors will justify the primary reason for their vote will be to eliminate the weakest performing tribe member in order to better their chances at winning future challenges? (45 points) Two

John Robert Picked All 3 to win a challenge for a total of 15 points, 30 if there's a Reward Challenge and they win that too.
Arron
Courtney

Tod Fetches Water for 20 points if he does. (I figure someone does..so picked him.  ???

Well good lcuk folks..happy playing.  ;D  :dancer:

Sorry to be slow! Blame it on work and BB :lol:

But I'm all picked now!

It is a little tricky isn't it--is it better to have a "sure thing" at low points? Or go for the "big splash" and risk losing some small but sure points? ???

Hey peach, glad you got ur picks done!  :tup:  Yes, the bonus thing vs the "sure thing" is a bit tricky.  But I have found times when it paid off to forfeit the bonus in lieu of correct answers.  But I do it only if I'm purdy much 99% sure of the answers.  This week, I'm taking the bonus since it's the first week, and purdy much a crap shoot (for me anyway) .  Each player should just use their own discretion and how it works for them.
We will post stuff here at times to help us all get more correct answers.   


------------------
Puddin....helloooooo.... :hhello:  After you recover from the big BB8 season, we can use your expertise here!!  hint :lol:  :-*
-----------------
Good Luck Everyone!! 
Have fun watching the show!

I'm here Rudy :) .. for once I have made my picks and do not even know what I picked and am second guessing them today but do not want to look at my picks because I get those trigger happy fingers and don't want to lose the bonus...35% or whatever it was when i made my picks? Honest I just rolled the dice and can only hope for some points like the rest of you. I think I picked Chicken to spell a name wrong on his vote and picked 3 women to introduce themselves or was it fetch water?  :lol:

probably to late with this but I think the tribes are determined by what color bag or whatever that is that the monk is giving them?
I picked predetermined at 37% bonus but that was before I saw this but still don't know the correct answer  ???





How are the initial tribes seeded? (30 points)   
The tribes are predetermined
One or more Survivors make the selections
By random draw
By local Chinese leaders
Based on the results of a challenge
Some other way

Yep, me too, puddin.  :o  I have Fantasy Survivor open and it's so tempting to change answers.  But then I look at my 35% bonus.  Being the first week...I figure what the heck.  I put Frosti gets kidnapped.  :rotf: :lol:  And there's no kidnapping! arrrg.  Oh well...next week, we should be able to put more intelligent answers!  Hope so!
Thanks puddin!  :hugs: :kuss:
