I was on Todd's bandwagon last season... this is my first time liking Amanda. It's a very strange experience for a heterosexual female let me tell you. But there's no men left for me! (I don't count Erik because he's actually an animation - similar to Eliza)

What I really want is to see you use your coveted 10,000th post on your unabashed declaration of your love of all things Amanda. lol... Can I suggest the anti-blur thread. It will be like evolving a whole new character. PS. I'm surprised Ozzy didn't leap across from the Jury and drag her off to a cave with excitement. He has SOME self control obviously.

This season, she does NOTHING and looks to be a shoe-in for the win I just can't find any happiness in this Thank you Mme Pez-ident!!! ...can I put in a special request for next Thursday's PBP? I think we should have a surprise twist, where Jonathan and Yau-Man return to the game, obliterate everybody else who's left and leave us with a winner we can actually enjoy The only one I can tolerate winning at this point is Cirie, and I just don't think she has a chance because nobody wants to be sitting next to her at F2 This sucks!

Posts: 9992 (05/01/08 7:22 PM) Registered user Reply Quote More Recent Posts	:) Sorry, I'm saving my 10,000th for Archie. I just never liked Amanda. Probably because A) I don't root for pageant queen contestants EVER. and B) I don't root for showmancers EVER. So that pretty much rules Amanda out from ever being one of my favorites. I'm basically rooting for Erik or Cirie at this point. But Parvati will win.

JP was right! sings(tune of "Nothing Like a Dame") "There's nothing like a blind...side" OK it doesn't scan, but ANOTHER great episode and now we have the HII played RIGHT! Amanda's edit suddenly turned into COLLEEN'S! TOTAL SWEETHEART Edit! They are sure making it look like they like her, they really like her and they really want us to be happy for her, if she wins. Which it now looks like she's gonna...All four Jury members seemed THRILLED with this development....And all those "Alexis WINS!" shout-out-ers are now shouted out of a heroine... But I feel that with this episode the season has already ended. Erik really was shown up to be a coward, by the editors, by Amanda at Tribal. Erik was hoping for a fans alliance. And Amanda isn't going to take too well to Cirie's voting for her...Cirie really made a big mistake tonight, I'm afraid...No one was speaking against her, though... And the hidden alliance that was revealed was Parvati and Amanda's...I guess...per the SEEBS website clues... I really would love it if Erik won immunity again next week...He could've ended up with a really strong new alliance with Amanda and he BLEW IT!!!! Everything is bone-achingly predictable from now on...I'm afraid Erik's got a big "5" written on his head for "Fifth place". Natalie has a "4". Cirie, I'm so sad to report looks like a three, and that leaves us with a Parvati and Amanda Final Two. With Amanda looking like a clear winner, at least THIS week. Unless she pisses off the final three bootees as she has Alexis and loses to Parvati...If James votes Parvati....OH NO! And James and Parvati had a very fond farewell, if you noticed and Erik said "Parvarti was crying all day." I'd love for Erik to make the Final Four, but....sighs like Ozzy

Actually I think Erik made the right choice, he chose his fan roots, there was no way that Amanda would have stayed in an alliance with him even if he tried to save her. Parvati and Cirie are hardcore about booting the guys and he knows she would do whatever they would do. He took a chance with what he believed would give him the best chance of going further. I also hope Erik wins immunity next week. I want him or possibly Amanda to win.

(I know she knew Amanda could well have the idol, but she's got to also have known that this would make Amanda look very very good to any jury members. Parvati couldn't make the idol go away but she could have blurted it out and blunted the impact.) I agree. I don't like Parvati much, but I do respect her for that. At this point, Parv is beginning to worry about the end game. She knows what she would look like if she put Amanda's name down or spoiled the fact about her hii. I say Parv had no choice but to stick with Amanda and see how the chips fall/ But Cirie on the other hand, I can't figure out her thoughts at this time. She wanted to remove Amanda as well. Or she could have organized the others to target Nat or Alexis. Nat came so close to winning IC she should be seen as a threat. It's a wonder why they are/Cirie is keeping her around.

Posts: 23611 (05/01/08 11:05 PM) Registered user Reply Quote More Recent Posts	Thank you for the PBP, Trix! It comes in handy when I'm doing my essay! We know it was Parvati who didn't want to vote out Natalie, but instead urged Amanda to target Alexis instead. You know what it reminded me of? Big Brother when the HOH is prodded by an ally into doing something that's best for the ally's game, not the HOH's. It was Amanda who did the legwork to get the HII, and true she was saving herself. But the decision of whom to boot was made by Parvati and that's what they did. It's telling that they showed us the quick scene in which Parvati & Amanda discussed whom to target. In that short scene we learned who's running the game. Parvati isn't mistaken that she is, she actually is. This wonderfully thrilling ep makes Amanda look SO awesome that I'm thinking she's a distraction now. If Parvati truly intends to be in F2 against Amanda, she could find herself losing. But the edit all season doesn't support that result.

Posts: 7967 (05/01/08 11:28 PM) MESS SPECtrometer Emeritus Reply Quote More Recent Posts	This season sucks. Worst final 5 ever. Well, I forget which MESS poster said it but it was a GREAT summary of how Survivor Seasons usually play out: The Game is broken into three parts, 1) The Pre-Merge, 2) the Merge and Post-Merge and 3) the End Game. Which usually play out like a Season of Football where the three Parts are: 1) The Regular Season, 2) The Play-Offs and 3) The Super Bowl. Usually only ONE of them is really good. This time it was the Merge/Post-Merge, the "Play-Offs," that totally ROCKED with 4 GREAT Episodes in a row. But unfortunately, leaving the End-Game, the "Super Bowl" to majorly SUCK, especially when AMANDA and CIRIE FAIL to be there. It shapes up to be a Natalie/ Parv / Erik F3. Invisabitch/ Queen Bitch/ Weasel. SUCK ON IT. READ THE FRIGGIN' BANNER!!!
