I've had one occasion where it skipped the PvP automatically. My guess is no-one else was running through it; it was, after all, 6 am...

Getting to level 17 is maximum by killing the level 8 Charr untill level 14 (no, not Grawl, they don't excist), then killing the level 10 Charr untill level 16, then doing all the quest, which gets you to level 17. Doing this without dying is very hard though.
Level 20 used to be possible when you could lure the Charr to the gate that leads you to the Northlands, but that got nerfed about 6 months ago. After that it was possible by leveling Striders outside Ashford Abbey (it was actually only possible with items from post-searing to reduce Health, unless you felt like spending 6 months leveling Striders), but this got nerfed recently. Both of these ways would lose your title anyway though.

That's true. I asked the other team not to kill me, and they all agreed not to.
Then... some damned Ele started Flaring me or Fireballing me I can't recall which skill it is:
Me: "Hey I'm going for Survivor title bugger off!"
*Only just tanking Ele's attack with Troll Unguent and +30AL vs Elemental Damage*
Ele: "You should fight and win properly not hide in the corner..."
Me: "You said you aint gonna' kill me"
*Ignite Arrows*
*Dual Shot*
*Powershot*
Ele: "Damn"
I survived that... Only to die at level 18/19 from some damned Maguuma Spiders ambushing me!

There are no level 8 grawl north of wall, and pre-searing the max you can get experience from characters (level 10 north of wall) is 6 levels higher (i.e. Charr bosses don't give exp after level 16). Additionally there was a bug introduced a few patches back that makes it impossible to level creatures by letting them kill you too. Hope that explains for you better.

I am not trying to get survivor in presearing.
I just didn't want to die in the pvp sequence while going to post searing.
Exiting the game to skip the PVP sequence DOES count as a loss, atleast it did on my mesmer recently.
I do know that it is much easier in cantha to get the survivor title, but I really like how my tyrian elementalist looks
I think I covered all the questions/misunderstandings.

Me and a friend made characters in tyria to get survivor and when we went in the academy we just walked all the way back from where you start and you can go back quite far where you can hide for the 2 minutes.
