You'll always be a target if you talk too much, and "lead" too much. Hai was doing both and seemed to horde the time talking at tribal council. Time to go!

[E.H. Ruddock]

Wow. Awesome tribal. Spectacular.

[wease]

Better than the last couple?

Wow. Awesome tribal. Spectacular.

Bad weather here so rather than show tribal council they cut to a weatherman explaining heavy rain. I have the internet! Fuuuuuuccccckkk!

[E.H. Ruddock]

Yeah the whole thing was just crazy.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Will you guys please watch this so we can chat about it!?

Never tell people about your advantages/idols.

No kidding.

I feel at this point Omar could be a contender. He's flying just enough under the radar.

Romeo is dead weight.

Lindsay and Jonathan are the strongest physically. They could cancel each other out.

Mike could be in trouble if he goes into "leader mode"

Maryanne is ...Maryanne.

[blueviper]

Also, they are 2/2 on the do or die challenge these past two seasons. That's crazy.

[blueviper]

Also, best way someone being voted off!

Drea threw Omar under the bus though at tribal council. The rest of the tribe could target him for being a snitch.

Potentially, but his move also allowed them to vote off a power player. I'd be more more worried about the jury than the remaining players if I was Omar.

If Omar makes it to the end, he’ll win. He’s really played the best game. He’s lied to or played just about everyone on the jury and still in the game. If the tribe was smart, they’ll listen to what Drea told them.

3 deserving winners: Jonathan, Lindsey, Mike
3 ride-alongs: Maryann, Romeo, Omar

That’s how I see it. I also see my 3 deserving winners are white and my 3 ride-alongs are minorities. The jury is predominantly minorities, as we have previously covered.

Here’s my personal ranking - not who I think will win, but who I’d like to see win.

1 Lindsay - great all around player and probably the most attracted to a survivor I’ve ever been. Sneaky young at 31, tho. Thought she was late 30s for sure. Why am I like this?
2 Jonathan - just a fucking unit, amirite?
3 Mike - pretty decent old man, but he takes shit a little too personally.
4 Maryann - she’s a child. Harmless, sweet, and a little retarded, but she hasn’t really played the game.
5 Omar - I hate his bird shirt. He bothers me. It’s not his praying or his virginity. He’s just creepy.
6 Romeo - I think they did him dirty showing him scraping rice, but he’s a creeper too. He reminds me of those creatures in Ocarina of Time that latch onto Link. Where is his real hairline?

I don’t think Omar or Romeo have a shot with a jury. If I was any of the other 4, I’d do everything I could to bring them with.

Maryann is the only remaining player whom I think would win in a landslide. Drea made that possible/probable. Jonathan or Lindsey (whichever doesn’t win immunity) is likely the next one out, but Maryann should be.

If Maryann is in the final 3, she wins.
For Jonathan to win, Omar and Romeo need to be the other 2.
Lindsey will win in any final 3 that doesn’t include Maryann
Mike will win in any final 3 that doesn’t include Maryann or Lindsey.

Alright, Ruddo, what gave you got?

[Monkey_Driven]

Omer, Mike, or Lindsey are getting the "winner" edits of those who are left. Last season proved that doesn't always mean much, but it's usually a good sign.

[E.H. Ruddock]

daft, lol at your Lindsey comment. I feel the same way. I’d agree with most of what you said except for maryann. She doesn’t do shit. I don’t think being a minority is enough for the jury to swing it her way. She seems to annoy everyone when she talks. But yeah going into final 3 with Omer and Romeo would be ideal for any of the others

Romeo taking rice scraps from the bowl bothered me so much and I’m not even on the island.

Lindsey and Hercules are my favorite two and have been since almost the beginning.


Which is the kiss of death. Neither will make it to final three.

[Simple Torture]

Lindsay reminds me of former winner Denise, although Denise. She has hung with Jonathan in nearly every challenge--if the two of them are in the finals, she beats him, because she'll get more credit for her runner-up challenge wins than he will get for his wins. Also because Jonathan's social game is a great big zero.

My wife pointed out that Drea actually lied when she walked out of tribal--she told the rest of the tribe that Omer was the only one she told about her advantage. This isn't true. She also told Lindsay, hinting that she's planning on voting for her, I think, if she's there in the end.

Jonathan"s path to victory is very, very narrow. I think he would clearly win if the final 3 were him, Romeo (GOAT), and Maryann, with the only obstacle there being how liked Maryann is. He loses to Lindsay or Omer. Mike...is super well liked, but I don't know what's on his resume besides that. He was Hai's guy and then he was Omer's guy. Honestly, going against his gut and voting Rocksroy--doing whatever it takes to win, even if it goes against what he believes--might be his strongest case.

I have a feeling the fire making challenge might take 3 days. Imagine if it's Romeo and Omer.
