I just didn't quite love him like I loved a lot of the players above him, though. =\ I can see why he's so popular but he's just not really for me. I still liked him (I liked everyone above Chad) but I never really felt the love for him. Oh well.

He seemed like a good person, but at the same time, a lot of his time in the episodes was pretty flat: he was usually the doubt in each episode: he sympathized with the younger men but stuck with his alliance anyway. What sets Sarge ahead of someone like Chad is that he actually kept me somewhat interested. He really did seem like a good and upstanding person; I usually hate those types because it's all in the editing, but I felt like Sarge was the type of person he claimed to be. His best moment by far was his boot episode. He knew he was going and he hated that fact. Seeing him give Scout the death glare while she sang at him had me laughing so hard. Seriously, it was awesome. Also, I loved his jury question, since he was pretty bad at faking Chris out, and Chris saw through it immediately and worked his magic on Sarge as well. All-in-all, Sarge was a good person with an okay storyline and a few funny moments, but he didn't quite entertain me like the people above him did. 11: Spoiler [+] Pre-merge.

Yeah, I'm actually not surprised that Sarge isn't too popular, he really doesn't seem like the type of player that most people would really like. I actually enjoyed him, though, honestly. BlandlyInoffensive wrote: Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of this ranking. Well, sorry to hear that, but I can understand. I know that my opinions are a lot different than how other people feel, so I can see how you wouldn't really like the ranking.. Hopefully you'll like the rest of the ranking a bit more, but if not, I understand.

Posts: 1507 (01/06/12 11:04 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	11: John Palyok John P. was exactly the type of character that I love: the funny background character. He was never important, but he was hilarious nonetheless. He was an absolute goofball and the editors loved to prey on that, both with the infamous "We have amber! Amber!" scene and with his attempts to pronounce the word aboriginal. It sounds silly to rank him so highly for those lines alone, but they made me laugh pretty hard, and it was one of the examples of the editors clearly having fun at the expense of certain castaways, which is always pretty fun. Sadly, JP's (not Probst, unfortunately) journey ended abruptly in the double boot when he was the second victim of the Fat Five. I really wish that JP had stayed over Brady because JP seemed like an absolute goofball and probably would have made me laugh even more had he stayed, but he was definitely memorable for those two lines alone. I <3 JP, underedited or no. However, the top 10 is all people that I absolutely love and JP just barely misses the cut there, sorry bro. =\ This means my top 10 for the season is: Mia Galeotalanza Lisa Keiffer John Kenney Leann Slaby Ami Cusack Julie Berry Eliza Orlins Scout Cloud Lee Twila Tanner Chris Daugherty 10: Spoiler [+] Received less than 5 votes against them all season.

Posts: 1509 (01/07/12 04:27 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	Just got back from the casino (came out $50 ahead, w00t) but I'm tired as hell so I'll update later on tonight. I'll say this though, after the next two boots, it's going to start getting really hard. I have the next two set in stone and I know my #1 for sure, but 8-2 is pretty much up in the air because they're all so close together. Really, my top 8 is all winners and I'd be over the moon to see any of them play again. I was actually thinking about my elimination order on the way home since it was an hour and a half car trip and my mom/grandparents were talking about things I wasn't interested in, and I'm really unsure about what order my top 8 will be. But that's what makes it fun, right? ^_^

Posts: 1510 (01/07/12 07:27 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	10: Scout Cloud Lee Scout is kind of an enigma for me. She was this constant UTRP presence throughout the season who was constantly ^_^ing her way through the game in ways I've never seen before. I'll be honest, I began to wonder if she even knew where she was. Her challenge performance was literally the worst ever (although she has an excuse) and her only real strategy revolved sticking with her crush (poor Annie. =\ ) until the end of the game where Chris won immunity and she was like "^_^ okay guess it's time to go then" and was voted off. Her complete lack of awareness was honestly hilarious, though. I've very rarely seen someone strategize less or have less of a role in the game. Seriously, most of her arc is confined to SPV. "Scout is a nice lady", "Scout is in our final four alliance", "Scout is out of the alliance", "Scout is a bitch", "Scout is jealous of Ami", "Scout is a jury threat so I'm voting her out and keeping Twila". That's essentially her entire arc that was made up entirely of SPV and that she herself had very little impact on. Meanwhile, the only times we ever heard Scout say anything were when she would start singing out of nowhere, or when she would give some voting confesh that made less sense the more you thought about it. And honestly? Part of the appeal of Scout is that I never really figured her out. Was she actually a bitch like people made her out to be late game? Did she have more game than what we saw? Or was she just a nice older lady and that's all there is to it? Scout is a weird character but she was compelling and lulzy at the same time because of her hilariously bad challenge performance and the fact that she seemed completely unaware of the game in general. I wish she'd come back just so I could figure her out but at the same time she shouldn't come back because Twila would be much better for a second-time older female from Vanuatu so whatever. 9: Spoiler [+] Was part of one of the two original younger alliances.

I'm almost completely at a loss about what to say about him. He was apparently a huge fan of Survivor and was a physical threat so he was booted first...That's pretty much it. After I watched the first episode, I was pretty confused by how a first boot could get such a horrible edit. He was completely forgettable and is probably the worst-edited contestant of all time. At least Rick and PK were hilariously underedited, but Brook's was just...sad. Oh well. I love in the second episode when Lopevi shows up at the reward Yasur is just like, "...who left?" Kind of the "Where did Mary come from?" moment of Vanuatu. I would slaughter Lopevi if I did this as well, they were boring and Yasur had tons of drama and great characters.

As a person, she seems like an absolute self-righteous bitch that I would never like to associate myself with. Also, as a gameplayer, she was far and away Vanuatu's worst: she betrayed her own alliance for no reason, was a social disaster, and single-handedly talked herself out of the game over three other boot targets in Eliza/Rory/Leann. So why does Lisa rank so highly, when I'm getting into the "love" category? Because of her epic arc. Seriously, the editors really went all-out with Lisa to show her as one of the biggest trainwrecks of all time. We're introduced to Lisa as the older woman who can't really accept that she's older so she hangs out with the young crowd to make herself feel younger. From there, basically every major scene paints Lisa as a desperate bitter trainwreck of a hag who really can't do anything right. It's pretty hilarious that she was the huge swing vote in Mia's boot but all of the strategizing was ignored; we only see that Lisa had a plan, and then we see the fallout where Lisa bitches Eliza out and is pleased with her move. Everything about Lisa ignores her (crappy) gameplay and just focuses on her as a trainwreck. One of my favorite scenes in all of Vanuatu is really soon after the swap, which went something like (paraphrased since it's been a while since I've seen it): Lisa: HAY I THINK WE SHOULD SHOW THE GUYS THAT WAY OF OPENING COCONUTS THAT DAH SHOWED US. =D Ami: Why? Lisa: I THINK IT'S COOL. =D Ami: But why? Lisa: I JUST THINK IT'S COOL. =D Seriously, she was like an eight-year old who was dying for attention and wanted to show off their newest toy. It was outright hilarious to watch this woman in her mid-40s wanting to show off her cool new survival skills. But then it got even better when episode 6, my favorite pre-merge episode came. I'll never get over the sheer hilarity of how bad Lisa played there. It's immediately post-swap. Saying Rory was a sitting duck at that point was an understatement. Half of the tribe has formed a suicide pact due to Eliza's voice. Leann gave one of the worst challenge performances ever and directly cost them the win. So who gets the boot? Yep, you guessed it, trainwreck Lisa. The "I want to see where they are just in case" scene was outright hilarious and honestly, even though she didn't say "in case you were gone", I'm pretty positive that that's exactly what she meant to say before she caught herself. Well, Ami had had enough by then and told her to her face that she was getting booted. Lisa was...well, shocked, and basically entirely breaks down and starts babbling something about how she's true to her word (despite how she betrayed her own alliance a few episodes earlier, pwnt) and how she hates Ami but she's going to stick with what she said. Oh, and she gets really self-righteous about how she's not swearing on her religion or something. So yeah, Lisa the trainwreck single-handedly talks herself out of the game by both by being generally annoying and with a slip-of-the-tongue when literally half of the tribe had reasons to be booted over her. Lisa's entire storyline is really subtle, but I love that the editors did it. Basically every scene of Lisa's relates to her being a bitter old trainwreck hag who can't accept that she's aging and is outright stupid. And as a character, she's downright hilarious. 8: This is where it gets hard. ;-; I don't want to eliminate anyone else, I really love everyone still in. But... Spoiler [+] Received votes at at least one tribal council prior to their finish
