Okay. Let's try this out.
Vote for what you want to stay - everything you want to stay.No limit to your number of votes, vote as much as you like. You could vote for ten stories to decrease the chance of a particular one getting through, or you could vote for one story to give it a much greater advantage. Votes will be concealed until the poll is complete. If there's a tie, a tiebreak will determine the placement, but all stories will be voted off.
Might fiddle with the rules as we move forward - reveal votes, for instance, very tempted by that - but this might be a bit more interesting than a standard survivor. Should be harder to predict, and allows for far more tactical voting, which should hopefully make it much more fun to follow.
