Anyone thinking Crystal is throwing comps on purpose?

She is faking her poor performances in SOME of the challenges. She has been pretty canny so far, so I think this is a strategey to lull her opponents into a
false sense of security. That said, I do believe she sucked donkey balls in some of the other challenges because she genuinely couldn't do them (ie. the
boat lacross type thingy).

I looked back at a couple challenges and other than, say, the water one on the boats and the first one running up the hill, it appears she is trying but hey,
as none of these are "fastest person" challenges, doesn't seem she is throwing them so much as just not performing well.
Besides, not ONE confessional where she talks about holding back? That should be indicative, much as I'd love for her to be that canny. -SJ™ |

I'd like to think she would be this smart. Shit, even if she wasn't throwing them she should claim she was.

It's hard to tell. How could someone let go of those poles that quick? She wouldn't be a Gold Medalist if she's more atrocious than Sugar. Sugar
then should join the Olympics.

She hasn't universally sucked, there were some challenges where she got Fang pretty close to winning (the obstacle course comes to mind and the
manhandling/dragging one that they did win), so it is hard to say whether this is a strategy to "hide her light (strength) under a bushell". She is a
pretty shrewd player though, as can be seen in her ability to oust her key opponents. Her confessionals show she has a good grasp on the inter-tribal dynamics
and the game itself.

No, she ain't. Unfortunately, Crystal, much as I love her, just fuckin sucks at the comps.

unfortunatley, pole holding, fruit chucking and being in a boat and doing lacrosse type thing are not olympic events which may explain her challenge suckage.
maybe once we get a sprinty style challenge we might get to see the olympic champion in her.

Maybe she's saving the good stuff for the end game? I will laugh my ass off if she keeps sucking every week and then all of a sudden starts kicking the
shit out of everyone when there aren't many of them left. <3 Crystal!

She did pretty okay though at the fruit bashing thing.
What was the other challenge she won? Dragging and.... I forget. Oh, the slip and slide thing that she owned at with the math puzzle. |
