Even Jeff said, 'It's raining so hard, I can't see.' But I dug deep and I used my ability to meditate while standing and that allowed me to see through the impenetrable rain. Something only Jedi masters can do. ''Then, I used my telepathic powers to guide the ball through a maze that was so difficult it had never been accomplished by anyone before. Even Jeff said so: 'This challenge is so difficult, no human being has ever accomplished it before!' ''When I finally won, Jeff tried to put the immunity necklace around my neck but due to me bench pressing 350 lb tree trunks earlier in the day my neck was too big for the necklace. That was another first. Even Jeff said as much, 'Wow, I've never seen a neck so big as a result of bench pressing 350 lb tree trunks that I can't get the necklace around. That's impressive.' '' Please let Jeff call this douche out at the reunion.

What she has going for her is that sooner or later one of those guys is gonna want to take the other out and that could put Taj in a great spot. I'm guessing that Stephen does take JT out, but then Erinn makes F2 over Taj. Probst's blogging about Stephen and Erinn's game has been understated and limited. Erinn's strategy after ep.2 was to lay low, don't be a drama queen, and wait for someone else become the target (Insider). And sure enough, Brendan did. Right now, Erinn and Taj could try for a woman's allign and risk uniting JT\Stephen as an unbreakable duo. Or let the two boys think they have 100% power, and eventually one will turn on the other.

I mean stranger things have happened (Susie in the F2 with one vote from winning). Is Erinn Bob and Debbie Susie? LOL. I'm guessing that Stephen does take JT out, but then Erinn makes F2 over Taj. But Probst mentioned that if JT makes the finals, he would get Coach's vote. It seems strange to mention that if he did not make the F2. But he also said that Tyson and Sierra were dragon slayers in the making or would go after Coach and look where that got them. Last Edited By: TDB 05/01/09 3:49 PM. Edited 1 times.

I think that it is either JT or Erinn in the final 2, but keep in mind Probst hinted at Tyson turning on Coach. That didn't happen. If Stephen/JT are the final 2, he can't come right out and hint at it. JT could still get Coach's vote and lose. Stephen probably has Taj's vote already in his pocket.

If Coach and Debbie are the next two to leave, there won't be anybody left who can really compete with J. T. at anything involving athleticism or endurance. I get the feeling that J. T. may be getting Amanda's edit, where they try to make us think he's more of a jury threat than he really is. I can see Stephen making a more diplomatic and polished presentation to the jury the way Todd did.

JT is enough of a good ole boy or man's man to take his buddy, but most of the girls plus Brendan (ie everyone not in the Coach\Tyson\Debbie alliance) will vote for Stephen. However, Stephen is a student of the game, and will tempted to go after JT at F5. That's likely the last chance. Especially if Dragonslayer wins immunity. Having Coach and JT both in F4 would be threatening for Stephen.

Erinn may just get to F2 just being at the right place at the right time. She may have to win immunity at F4 or F5 to get to that point though.

He must have been listening to our bitchfest about not giving the ladies some credit for at least being in the game. About our speculation of Sierra dating someone connected to the show: RNO: What's the deal with Jeff Probst suggesting in his blog that you're dating a Survivor producer? Sierra: (Laughs) I think the funny thing is me and Taj and Debbie would be lying in the shelter and saying we're so hunger and the hunger pains are terrible. So we got tired of looking at our same guys and would prowl around and look at the cameramen and the producers and would tongue in cheek it with them. It was great to be able to look at some really cute Australian guys. I think Jeff also likes to rally it up because I was the young one and I used to say how hot his crew was. RNO: So you're not dating a Survivor producer? Sierra: I am dating someone, but I was dating someone before I left - not somebody new. Also, I was thinking that the 'who is the...' question challenge was so predictable and not bitchy at all this time. Interesting that that will be the last we will see of that challenge. Didn't that one start in Marquesas and was the ultimate reason for the downfall of the Rotu4? Last Edited By: Heliox 05/02/09 11:39 AM. Edited 1 times.

I think the challenge still works, it just need to be done earlier. At least 1 episode after the merge so there's still a lot of people hence more secret alliance that can be exposed. Doing it in final 7 doesn't exactly provide enough drama.

The final challenge in Gabon was a card stacking immunity that Susie won.

Posts: 18 (05/03/09 3:03 AM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	Well JT and Taj are going to be around for final four, so neither of them is going anywhere anytime soon. Sadly, Erinn really isn't in the spot she was when Sierra was still around (potentially because she could have turned the tibe of the game had she, Sierra, Coach, and Debbie been smart enough to revive a Timbira alliance). That Stephen vote she cast, while in good humor, pobably got some eyebrows raised. I still think the person they spoke of in the press release for the last episode(the girl who wears her heart on her sleeve lands herself in hot water) is Erinn. After rewatching some past clips, she did indeed say that she wore her heart on her sleeve, so I think that while that statement was made early, it will set the tone for her downfall in the coming episode, with Coach following her, and then followed by Debbie. She could easily be cut loose by JT/Stephen/Taj, as I'm sure they are aware that it wouldn't be hard to get Debbie/Coach to vote for her (not to mention she's outlived her usefulness for them). I'd say if any of the Jollypal 3 get wind that Coach/Debbie plan on voting for her, they'd all probably swing that way as well because they'd still have the numbers to get rid of Coach/Debbie at a later date. If she is smart though, she'll force a tie (hopefully working in her favor). Stephen, however, could use that lovely idol of his and she'd be screwed regardless. I also have the feeling, that should there be a tie and it's Erinn vs Stephen, Erinn is probably screwed on that as well. I'm still wondering why the whole fire making thing with Stephen was played up so much--perhaps a tie breaker is in our future (if not this week, perhaps for final 4?)

Why would that have been better for her? Either way she has a F4 alliance that would want her out 4th. This way she at least has a chance to try to get Taj to turn on the guys at F4 and go for a tie, since the two of them would take each other. Not that I'm convinced they necessarily would, but that would be her story.

The dynamics between Coach/Sierra (and to a smaller extent, Sierra/Debbie as of late) has been all over the place. Like Coach said, he and Sierra have very high highs, and very low lows. This F4 situation would benefit Erinn much more than a JT/Stephen/Taj/Erinn F4, simply based on how Timbira has conducted itself over the course of the game. True, she would technically have been at the bottom of the Timbira alliance (as she is with Jollypal), but which group of 3 would you rather take your chances with? A group of 3 that is very tight and never once cast a vote against each other, or a group of 3 that is constantly having in-fighting with each other and has shown that they have no trouble turning on each other and has no problem casting votes for each other? This could all be solved if she can win Immunity of course, but there again, her chances of doing that would have been better with Timbira's side than Jollypals. Erinn couldn't win a physical challenge against JT (or probably even Stephen based on what I've seen), whereas she was on a pretty level playing field with Coach/Debbie/Sierra. Not to mention from a Final 2 aspect, I'd much rather have had Coach/Debbie/Sierra as my opponent than JT/Stephen. It just seemed like to me that she would have had a better shot with Timbira than Jollypal. Last Edited By: XiceprinceX 05/03/09 2:33 PM. Edited 1 times.
