Immunity Challenge #5 (AND TRIBAL COUNCIL)

[RadioTV2]

Posted: 3/29/05 at 5:07pm

Tribal Council was as follows:

Rent- 1
Avenue Q- 8
Gypsy- 1
Little Women- 1
Aida- 1

It appears that winning in an upset Best Musical Tony could not save "Avenue Q".

The shows remaining:

Caroline, or Change
Wicked
Gypsy
Rent
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Hairspray
Little Women
The Boy From Oz
Taboo
Nine
Aida
Phantom of the Opera

Time for immunity challenge number three. The FIRST person to CORRECTLY PM me the answer to the question (along with the show they wish to save) will be immune from eviction of the game. Since "Nine" won immunity last time, it is ineligible to receive this one. Here's the question:

Today, it was announced that "Sweet Charity" would indeed make it to Broadway. How many TOTAL nominations and how many TOTAL wins has "Sweet Charity" garnered at the Tony Awards?

Good luck!

Radio- what is this Immunity Challenge?

This is part of "Broadway Survivor". Do a search and you'll locate all of the threads! Anyways, the show that gains immunity is "Hairspray". The correct answer is: 14 nominations and 5 wins.

Now, from the list above, vote for the show you want ELIMINATED from the game.

Now, why if you win one day are you ineligible the next? On many other tv challenges...whoever gets the answer right wins no matter what...even if you've already won.

BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT!

And, by the way, check your results, "Charity" only got 13 nominations so far at the TONYs. Not 14.

When i looked, I got 14 too.

Posted: 3/29/05 at 6:30pm

Read carefully. "Charity" got 8 noms for the original production. And then, the 1986 revival got 5 noms and 1 THEATRE WORLD AWARD nom. That is NOT a Tony. If read quickly, it LOOKS like the revival had 6 TONY noms, but it only had 5. The results are inaccurate.

Count 'em. And apologize. If you dont like the game, don't play!

I will not apologize. According to the Internet Broadway Database the 1966 "Charity" didn't get a costume nomination. So, you can't prove which is correct.

And how bout before you start this game you outline ALL the rules. I read the original post and there was nothing there about not being able to recieve immunity more than one consecutive time. You can't just make up rules as you go along. How about someone who's more organized run this?

(although I do question Avenue Q winning best musical)....but then again, I'm in the provinces....what the heck do I know? sigh

I believe the TONY AWARDS SITE rather than IBDB because the Tony Awards say 14.
