Survivor Gabon: Episode Discussion

[quote=Bacchus;37834]I agree it was a good idea for her....it just sucked for [U]me[/U]! [B] Edit:[/B] And [U]Kathleen[/U]![/quote] And me! Honestly I like Bob and Marcus going means that he might go if Kota doesn't win. Hopefully the merge happens soon.

[QUOTE=Bacchus;37834]I agree it was a good idea for her....it just sucked for [U]me[/U]! [B] Edit:[/B] And [U]Kathleen[/U]![/QUOTE] HAHAHAHA look, I'm NOT a susie fan...but yeah! she totally wouldve been Denise 2 years ago, yanno? I LOVE THIS SHOWWWWWWWWWW

Props to Matty for winning immunity for his tribe. How fitting would it be for Matty to drown in his own outrageous arrogance?

[QUOTE=Kathleen;37833]I'm really ticked off. This is not right. Really, what world are we in. ARGH Marcus was the winner of the game. :( I called it in the second episode. I hate Susie! I hate Ken! and I hate Crystal! Blah die*******! OK, bitter rant over... I'm rooting for Sugar and Matty.[/QUOTE] I thought that same thing now I'm not sure if there is anyone who I think should win.

[QUOTE=darksamurai88;37867]I thought that same thing now I'm not sure if there is anyone who I think should win.[/QUOTE] I honestly feel like I don't know the characters enough yet to determine who "should" win. And that's very different from who I "want" to win (Sugar, Matty, Corinne...maybe) We'll see! Season is getting better though!

[quote=darksamurai88;37867]I thought that same thing now I'm not sure if there is anyone who I think should win.[/quote] Hmm.. frankly I'm not sure there'd be a point to watching anymore if no one won at all. To me every reason has its reason. Ken, Crystal or any one of the other underestimated players making it to the end is proof to something (...if not the unattributable ability to draw all cosmic forces on your side when your interpersonal skills say otherwise...) And I like tonight's edit.. they made it seem like Ken was on at the end of his last rope.

I liked Marcus A lot- he was very promising; strong, funny and nice but he made his grave and buried himself in it, once he told crystal his plan to vote out kenny and take her into the Kota 6 instead of susie, that was a perfect oppertunity for crystal to tell susie and get him out of there. He should have played a little smarter and by smarter i mean not tell anyone about the kota 6. If he wouldn't have told crystal to write kenny's name down and just let it be between him, bob and susie, Kenny would have gone home not him. I happen to like Pyscho*******- so Susie is on my list of favorites... so is corinne, they both are a little cooky and have that crazy eye look haha :)

Hahah, I know but they are both crazies! Wacko Island... I was really hoping sugar would be a crazy, but she's turning out to be pretty normal! I heart my crazy scary*******... AND THEY ARE ONE IN THE SAME IN MY EYES hahaha! I dont like scary men though- Randy should be gone like "yesterday"

[quote=darksamurai88;37913]I dunno I think that if I had to pick one favorite it would probably be Bob.[/quote] Well most of the people I have liked seemed to get kicked off but I do like Bob and I hope he makes it to the merge at least because he doesn't have a chance if Kota loses again.

[QUOTE=Bacchus;37883]You can't like Susie AND Corinne. They are mortal enemies! :D[/QUOTE] I like Corinne (but not Susie)!

I can't help but not like Susie even though she got out a big player last week and may have helped her chances. Corinne is a little crazy I'll admit it but she seems smarter game wise and unless someone else defects or the tribes switch....AGAIN....she should make it far in the game. Though her alliance is weakened by losing Marcus.

Someone please tell me what Susie brings to the show... I think casting looked at the last few seasons and decided their PC card was not sufficiently filled.

[QUOTE=V1man;38172]Someone please tell me what Susie brings to the show... I think casting looked at the last few seasons and decided their PC card was not sufficiently filled.[/QUOTE] haha yeah I dont think any of us are Susie fans lol

Alright, we are definitely getting a merge this Thursday according to this video. :D [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8g9uG8PtOM]YouTube - Survivor Gabon ~ Jeff Probst's episode 9 preview[/url] I had no clue that Jeff Probst was doing these previews. I will start posting them from now on. ;)

[QUOTE=Bacchus;38322]Sweet! Bob is saved. You could just see the relief on his face. Fang had probably already selected a parting gift for him.... Down with Susie! She must go! She must pay for her sins! Redemption![/QUOTE] I'm in the same boat....yay for Bob, ditch Sus!

BOB LIVES! :P If it had went another week then Bob would have been kicked to the curb but a merge means he has a way better chance to be safe. And there could be a way better chance Susie could be sent on a one way flight out of there/

I can't believe Crystal and Kenny are still around too! I really wonder how long they lasted out there.

Alright I missed the 1st 15 minutes so can someone please tell me what has happened? I walked in and they were just now getting finished with the challenge. All I know right now is that Randy is mad at Matty.

[quote=Bacchus;38744]Ugh - Sugar.....WHY WHY! I am not sure what to say. I saw her crying and I just knew. Charlie was never a favorite, but he seemed like a genuinely nice guy and there was no reason for that carnage. It should have been Crystal, then Randy, then Susie. Drat! My master plan is afoul.[/quote] That group is getting to confident too quickly and it seems so unlikely that Kenny or Susie would be in a power alliance. It's weird I would have pictured them both going right after the merge. Sugar...oh Sugar....she lets Kenny work her too much.

This is really starting to stink. I hate sleezy players like this. Not the sleeze factor, just the ones that don't deserve to be there (yes, Kenny...you don't deserve to be there) being underhanded and taking advantage of the numbers with lies. Shame on Sugar for letting Kenny and Crystal keep their power! I try not to look at it from her point of view, because then I'd have to concur that it's a smart move because Corrine is a snake and aligning with Randy is just too much to bear.

All right, I think that's a bit excessive here. What do you mean those who "don't deserve to be there.." EXCUSE ME? Part of the reason why Survivor appeals to so many people in the first place is because of their casting genius these past seasons. They're actually recruiting people who "truly" represent every segment of our population, and who viewers can "truly" identify with. So yes, Kenny and company are not the most eloquent of the bunch. But puuhleeaase.... this is the show 17th season. If anything I think it's about darn time to rid ourselves of all these old preconceived notions we hold about what makes for a perfect winner..

On a side note, I can't believe no one's mentioned anything about Bob's artsy genius just yet. He crafted his own immunity idol...?!!? Now that to me, is just... fantastic

I honestly think everyone brings something different to the show and everyone deserves to be there, including Susie, alot of these topics are about her. Yes mostly bad, but none-the-less people are still talking about her. She brings a lot of drama. I like my girl Susie. She is smart. Smarter than a lot of people give her credit for. One of the smartest moves was to kick off Marcus and she helped do it last week! I dislike Crystal and Kenny too, But imagine if those 3 werent on the show??? who would everyone be talking about- besides bob and his inner boy scout? and he did make an impressive "fake" idol! Way to go bob! I liked how Corinne admitted she was a ***** to Sugar for 25 days and only when she needs her she is nice to her. I did feel bad for Charlie, he did seem like a genuinely nice guy (but you never know with these reality show :) I definitely would have loved to see Randy gone. Who's to say some people deserve to win more than others? The remaining people are smart in there own way or they wouldn't have made it so far!

Is it not "Outwit, Outplay, Outlast"? Kenny is playing a FANTASTIC game! If he, Crystal and Susie were the final 3, i'd be SHOCKED no doubt, but I'd applaud their efforts and gameplay 100%! Sugar had to go with them. Corinne and Randy, UGH...that'd be a terrible idea.
