This question is different than most "Mahalo Member list" questions as the skills needed to survive on a desert island might not be readily displayed in our profiles or answer/question/comment history.

This makes things more difficult.

To start with I want @davepamn ~ I believe his ultra inquisitive nature will bring about the right questions to hopefully lead to the right answers. You can't get the right answer without the right question and I think the law of large numbers applies here.

Number two would be @bunnyphuphu ~ In times of mental and physical stress attitude might just be the decider as to who lives and dies so to keep myself and the rest of the survivors in positive spirits I choose her as chief of good spirit.

Number three would be @drmatt ~ We would need a voice of medicine to give some kind to help with all of the repercussions of long term isolation and the possibility of physical injury.

Number four would be @badaspie ~ I know some of you might not remember him (where has he been?) but trust me there in nothing this Mahalo user does not know. We will need his deductions and probability experience

Number five would be @morris003 ~ Morris is a farmer and we will need a way to get or produce food. Morris has skills that will be essential to creative food production and the creation of a long term 6 person sustainability plan.

With each of these five Mahalo users unique skill sets I believe this team would have a great chance of survival until rescue arrived no matter how long it took.

@smartweb can possibly help SEO your way off the island! :P

if we still had an AOTD contest I would nominate this.

Hi Chris Thank you for the nomination! I guess if we take into consideration that @badaspie just might be able to build a computer out of coconuts, fish gills, and fulgurites then we just might need @smartweb and someone that smart would be welcome on any team.

Don't worry @buddawiggi, the good news is that I'm chief captain in charge of the search and rescue team for you and your island mates. Which means @bunnyphuphu should only have to keep you guys in good spirits for 5 or 6 years. 10 years, tops!

first would be 'dumblonde' to see if she speaks as eloquently as she writes. second would be 'sarabond' so she can congratulate me for anything I do. ;-)
third would be 'buddawiggi' because i just saw his picture...
fourth would be 'danielle' to quote movies and tv and entertain us.
fifth would be 'robbrown' because i see his name alot...

and we wouldn't be there long because i happen to know a lot about survival and signaling... ;-)

I've met lots of great people here in Mahalo so I think it's a little tough to pick just 5 of them... T.T This will be a little hard. lol

1. @buddawiggi - He's seemed funny! :) I think it will really be boring there so I it's nice to have someone who could make you laugh while waiting to be rescued. ^^

2. @robbrown - We just had a 'mini' discussion about Prague in another question. I'd love to go to that place so maybe we'll have more time talking about that place. ^^

3. @annek - I'd ask about tips on how can I improve my writing! :D I've always wanted to be a great writer so I think this is my chance! ^^

4. @easyeboy - Just met him here a couple of days ago. He seemed really friendly. I don't really know him pretty much, so I think this is the chance where we could be good friends. ^^

5. @cheapgamer - He's sooo kind. I still remembered when he discussed some things about getting to the States because my Dad's there and I'm supposed to migrate soon. :) Plus, we both like cats! ^^

Ugh... I still have more people in my mind like @jeffhoard, or @jasoncalacanis... etc. What if we'll just have the whole Mahalo community stuck there? ^^
