Survivor: David vs Goliath

[CYdTracked]

This is a good watch. Christian literally is like Shelden Cooper of the Big Bang Theory - whiteboard and all! I hope he is back on a future season as he's a good player and entertaining too. I haven't seen all the Ponderosa videos over the years but if you were playing Survivor you at least want to make the jury because it's basically an all expense paid vacation on a quiet island resort.

Yeah her big argument for winning is going to have to end up being "I Got Rice". Which is not going to sway one vote. Actually it might make her look bad if the jury thinks she gave up a chance at Immunity so she can eat and everyone else laughed behind her back because she gave it up.

I want Davie and Nick to win at this point which basically means neither will.

The bad part about survivor now Is the best players doing the work are getting voted out. So the winner usually is a player who didn't have to do a lot besides make it to the end and not piss anyone off.

That's how Sandra won twice. Jury was always pissed that someone lied to them which you have to do sometime if you are playing the game at all. Sandra would win cause she just sat back and never did anything or lie to anyone.

The last time she was on she totally played a different game. Not sure why but she was all cocky and pissing everyone off. Have a feeling she decided to go that route so people would take her to the end as nobody would vote for her. Like the reverse of her last two games she might have felt would not win it a third time for her.

Let's hear your predictions ahead of the finale tomorrow night. Curious to see what everyone is thinking and whose prediction comes true.

Final 4: Angelina, Kara, Mike, Alison- I really want to see Nick and/or Davie make it but I have a feeling if either loses an immunity challenge the remaining 4 goliaths are going to vote them out next because either of them probably wins if they make final 3.

Winner: Mike. Either him or Alison are going to take Angelina and Kara to the end (if they are smart enough) because neither of them would win. Personally I'd like to see Nick or Davie win but I think either they have to come up with an idol or win out immunity challenges to get to the final 3 which is tough to do this late in the game when you are on the bottom. How these past few weeks have gone my guy feeling is Mike will win because no one really has seen him as a threat and he's been the one kind of driving the votes on who goes home lately and no one really has caught onto how he's been doing that.

I’m going with Mike for the win. Hope Davie wins or Nick and I think those three are the best three players left.

But are we underestimating Angelina's negotiation for rice?!?

 

[mj4cy]

In my pool with my wife, she has Angelina and Mike left. I have Davie, Nick, Alison, and Kara.

If the jury is open minded, anyone has a chance to win minus maybe Alison as she just hasn't jumped off the page in this game. The others have had memorable moments in one way or another. I think you have to take Angelina to the end as she'll have to work the hardest to get jury votes. Kara is someone you don't want to take to the end as I think she can easily win. Cutting her early showmance loose was a good move by her and has stood out to me.

Some rumors and spoilers going around the Twitterverse about contraband items that werent discovered until the final 4. May affect the live show and who wins. (Heard who wins, obviously wont spoil it).

 

[cmjh10]

Also, gf and I were talking about this, but who would be an "All-Star" from this season?

Obvious ones to me:
Christian
John
Davie/Nick if one of them wins

Dark horse:
Angelina

Probably depend on how many other all stars they have from other seasons

Christian is the no brainer
John maybe
Davie no unless he wins
Nick no Unless he wins

Super tempted to look into the contraband, but am fighting the urge so the finale isn't spoiled. Obviously depends on what the items would be, but seems crazy that they wouldn't have noticed it/them until the end if it was anything of significance.

I put John down because it seemed to me, that him and Christian were far and away the 2 most popular among viewers. I agree if Nick or Davie win, they would have a chance.

Angelina would be the villian type from this season

Not going to read any of the spoilers until after tonight to see what this contraband talk is about because I don't want to accidentally stumble across who the winner might be. There was a season a few years back where the order of elimination got posted before the season started and it turned out to be 100% accurate. My wife came across it while I steered clear and she admitted it took a lot of the entertainment and suspense out of the season knowing who won and who was going home each week. I wonder what exactly they would call "contraband" as they are only allowed to bring so much with them at the start that surely is checked and inventoried. Maybe someone snuck food or something away from one of the reward challenges?

Back to the topic at hand, 0% chance Angelina wins. Getting rice is not going to win you the game and she's done nothing else strategically really while most people on the jury probably find her annoying and selfish too. Kara has 1 big move of voting out Dan but other than that really doesn't have much to show for actual gameplay and strategy. Alison you can make the case she has done OK in challenges and been somewhat strategic but she has been more talk than action when it came to making big moves because she was scared how that would affect her relationships with the goliath players left at that time. Mike, Davie, and Nick have played the best games and I'd be OK with any of them winning. If somehow all 3 girls make it to the end then I would guess it was because Kara or Alison made a big move or won immunity just at the right time that would give them an edge to win.

If they did All Stars Christian for sure would be the most logical choice from this season. This idea would never happen but it would be funny to do a "Village Idiots" season and bring back the dumbest or most annoying players. Natalie from this season, Erik from Fans vs Favorites, James "2 idols in my pocket" Russell and Brandon Hantz although I doubt we ever see either play again, Yau Man, Colton who was the poster child for rich spoiled brat and quit the game the 2nd time he played, Coach who was a decent player but just annoying, Tyson who essentially voted himself out one season, I'm sure I'm missing several more but those were some pretty memorable people that come to mind that fit that description.

I was told it was a certain illicit substance. Again, no idea if true or not.

As for the village idiots, Russell, IMO, is one of the best players to play Survivor. Yes he was a total douchebag, but he controlled everything up to the final vote his first 2 seasons.

Would also like to see a all winners season and a season of people voted out before jury. Doubt either happen. I think an All Star season has to be coming soon.

Russell believe it or not is probably one of my more favorite players to play the game. Especially his first season he had everyone doing exactly what he wanted and had his "dumb girls" alliance he played masterfully. His only flaw was he was too good at deceiving everyone that it pissed off too much of the jury to ever win the game. I respect players that can win immunity or find idols and strategically blindside people as much as he did but the drawback to that is it hurts your social game some too. By the last time he played the game everyone was on to his shtick which is why he didn't last too long the 3rd time he played.

I would actually like to see a season of people who were voted out first. First people voted out don’t even really get a chance to play.

Large lady in orange in front row is really excited.

 

[cmjh10]

The black guy from the Goliath tribe isnt there?

 

[MLawrence]

I am kind of excited to see Angelina face the jury.

 

[FarmClone]

I cannot believe Mr Scneebly beat Kara in the fire making. Kara is also smoking hot.
