I can't imagine a scenario where Bob makes the f3. He's had so little airtime, and has such limited oprions for an alliance to save him, other than a
Terry-esque immunity run there is no plausable scenario that gets him past f6.

To me, the editing clearly shows a Ken/Crystal/Sugar F3.
All three have been in the edit since the beginning of the game. Only Ken and Crystal have been shown to be in a strong alliance, even if "evil," whereas no one else has. I don't see Matty with a winner's edit at all. I see Matty with a "strong, physical guy" edit but a really bad social player edit. He's constantly betrayed his allies and has no strategy to fall back on in the Jury. Crystal, IMO, has less of a winner's edit than Ken or Sugar: she has a lack of strategy edits, and terrible challenge edits. She's basically the "muscles" to Kenny's brain -- Kenny has been given a good strategy edit and has challenges to back it. Sugar has great strategy edits, like Ken. Either way, I see these as the F3, hands down. The only other option is I can see Susie becoming the new "Natalie who?" in the next few episodes, and Kenny being "Cirie'd" out of the F3 by the other girls. But that's not based on the current "winner's edit" by any means. Matty? Bob? Both neither have a winner's edit. |

I think Matty, Ken, or Crystal are our winner

I still stand by my claim that Corinne, Matty, Bob are next votes out. I say in that order, but maybe not so much. I think based on the edit that Crystal and Sugar are in the F3. That would be total Evil v. Good (Crystal/Sugar) in that order. I expect Kenny or Susie as the 3rd, and while I anticipate Kenny, I wouldn't be shocked at him not making F3. I'd be more shocked at Kenny, Crystal, Susie, Sugar NOT making F4. And even more shocked at Crystal not making F3 at this point. I'd be DEFINITELY shocked if Sugar didn't -- I think she's a lock at this point. And no matter what happens out of that F4, I don't think any of that 4 would result in a 0 vote. Susie, Crystal, or Sugar would at least get 1 vote in any hypothetical match-up, unlike Becky.

I hope Crystal wins just so that edgic gets what's coming to them. I disagree with how they're evaluating Crystal (and also Sugar).

Does this "edgic" analysis even work? What kind of track record does it have?

I really don't think that three of the bigger personalties are going to be the final three, as the bigger personalties have the bigger fanbases and the
viewer's allegiences will be split. I'm thinking we will have two big personalties and a goat in the final three. I'm thinking Susie makes the best
goat, people will be happy to see her in the final 3 (given she was an underdog from day 1) but not necessarily want her to win.
The editors clearly want the viewer to be content with the winner, which does not necessarily mean we have to like the winner. Im sure most people hated Todd, but were content with him winning as he played a really smart game. Conversely, Sandra played an awful strategic game, but was so damn hilarious and likeable we were happy to see her win. The way I look at it, there are only 3 people that can actually win this thing, and only one of these three will be in the Final 3. These three are Matty, Sugar and Kenny. Matty may be rather stupid, but he is being portrayed as a nice guy, hard worker etc. His win can be justified by these admirable qualities. Kenny has been portrayed as the mastermind behind the late stages of this game, and his win can be justified by the fact he played a smart strategic game. Sugar has been portrayed the sweet little underdog that has managed to suck up some courage and stand up to the big guys. Clearly, viewers will be ecstatic if she wins. All 3 have had quite a big of airtime so it is hard to decide on one, but I really dont think it will be Sugar (based on my gut). I feel of the 3 Matty has the potential for the more intersesting story arc over the next few eps (if he finally starts strategising) . I feel like Kenny may have peaked to early with his mastermind story arc, and am waiting for the inevitable downfall.Sugar got a little more of a negative edit last ep which if continued could justify her departure before final 3. If any of the other players win, it would be hard for the viewer to be content with the outcome: Bob has had little airtime, Corrinne is a wannabitch and Crystal is, well completely useless. I see one of the latter two in the final 3, and I am tending towards Crystal because she has biffs with a lot of the jurors which could bring up intersesting questions at the final TC. So I guess based on the above, I think the final 3 is Matty, Crystal and Susie, with Matty winning. Who would have thought! |

Basically I chose Bort from that Itchy and Scratch land Simpsons episode (they have Bort licence plates but no Bart ones) and duplicated it, cos I am that rad.
Oh, and I forgot to add: ZOMGGG Corinneownage ftw!!! 4 evah!!! <3 <3 :) |

I don't know if I see Sugar's edit as strongly as others do. It seems that she is just involved in most of the major points in the story rather than
trying to manipulate the story to end up with her winning.
Here are the parts of the story Sugar has been included (and highlighted) in: - Going to Exile Island numerous times and finding the idol (which in turn results in more facetime, ESPECIALLY if she's in the end game) - Being the swing vote in the Ace boot (where Kenny was shown to be the strategic player, not Sugar) - Being the swing vote in the Charlie boot (multiple swing vote edits shows to me that she is being manipulated rather than manipulating) - Orchestrating the Randy manipulation (which, along with her behaviour at tribal, does not scream to me "master strategist") One of the reasons I think some people are intent on a Sugar win is because she was IMPORTANT to various aspects of the story. However it is not shown how Sugar will benefit from these moves. When Ken was trying to get Ace out the editing made it clear that he was looking to get rid of a threat that would hinder him post-merge. When Crystal was trying to get out Marcus the editing made it clear that she was making sure her ally was still in the game. When Sugar was trying to humiliate Randy it did not show what possible benefits Sugar had in carrying out this move other than her (and our) enjoyment. To me, I can only really see a Kenny or Crystal win. |

I don't think Sugar will win (though I would love it if she did), but I do think she will be sitting in the final three with Kenny and Crystal. Kenny wins.

I'm leaning towards a Kenny win. His character/story has been well developed without coming across as over the top overbearing like most of the cast
members.
I find Kenny's and Matty's edit is perplexing. We've seen none of their strategic talk with each other but they've been on the same tribe 90% of the time. We see Matty tell Ace he wants Kenny in their alliance but we never see Kenny's take/input in their alliance. What we do get is them working well together (ie: challenge where they were tied together) and that they are happy to be reunited. Both of them are not making the finals. I think the best bet for Kenny or Matty to win is to keep pointing out how if the other one gets to final three they will win and therefore needs to be taken out. They just can't take the other one out too soon or the women will start to she them as the only threat left. Matty's whole edit has been about this as a life experience and how amazing it has been. Everything Matty's has tried strategically has failed and that is why I think ultimately he fails to make the final 3. Also Crystals only move that has really worked (ie flipping Suzie and booting Marcus) was to keep Kenny in the game. She works for Kenny and although she is entertaining she will not win. sorry for the long winded post (cliff notes Kenny's story has been more well rounded and fleshed out therefore I think he wins) |
