Actually, the editors did a piss poor editing job this season, especially on this F3. Bob won over Susie in a close 4-3 victory and what did we get from the editors ? Susie ignored for most of the season. Bob ignored for much of the season. Sugar getting this ridiculous misleading "sweetheart edit" when pretty much the whole jury HATED her guts. All the votes that Bob lost in his piss poor jury performance went to SUSIE. Sugar got SQUAT ! Edgic failed this season. Whoop-dee-do ! We'll get 'em next year ! And Astro, you fuckin' moron, please leave this thread FOREVER and start your own useless thread. You're just a fuckin' dumbass !

I mean, I actually picked Bob after analyzing the entire season, and now that's been taken away from me by the assholes who blame it on spoilers. Maybe I'm imagining things, but didn't you say something like I think Bob, Sugar, Matty, or Kenny will win. I mean REALLY? Could you go more out on a limb there. Still though, she came within 1 vote of winning. My guess is if Susie won, she would have been edited the same. Besides the "talkative" part. She would have been a Vecepia 2.0 with the "NO DRAMA NO DRAMA NO DRAMA" crap.

Hear, hear!

He had no strategy, he was a follower exactly as depicted, and he won. His scope was "I follow and like to build cute things". Ok. Most bizarre winner ever. Exactly. When you have the eventual winner actually say "I didn't outwit or outplay any you of you" in the final tribal council, I dont know how you can edit them any other way than the way Bob was edited. Of course in retrospect the edit makes sense, it always does. The key is going back to the merge and seeing if there was anything from episode 1 until the merge that could point out why Bob's edit was edgically better than either Kenny or Mattys...I say there definitely wasnt anything there which could lead one to believe that, and hence edgic just isnt made to be able to pick out an edit like Bob or Danni, no matter how things are changed.

Swim, I said that any of the four of them COULD win, Edgically, but Bob was the person I picked as the winner because he made the most sense to me.

I hadn't seen anything since Jacque left, and I've had to sit out this season, but I do have one comment on the very limited bit of this season I saw: My God, that Corinne is one embarrassing woman. Is she using Survivor to springboard a career as a wrestling villain or something? I hope things get better for you and your family, OTH ... <333

He's a retard and stupid for picking Corrine to win. Is it just me or didn't ALL of you pick Marcus to win? Which one came closer to winning? Yeah. Case closed.

Two INVs and an eye roll over someone's dead father. Yup, retarded. How can edgic ever improve if such stupidity is encouraged?

Posts: 5792 (12/14/08 11:24 PM) Registered User Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	I think it's more constructive to at least have the discussion of whether or not it was a fluke... personally I think this season even reinforces some old guidelines I agree. (I said that earlier, didn't I?) We had things that were useful from Guatemala too. You're right, it's wrong to label this season as a fluke. It's a strange one from what we usually expect, but we definitely need to (and will assuredly will) look at. flf that's kind of uncalled for... All I've ever seen from Green Coffee is intelligent, insightful posts. It's not fair to group him in with the trolls. ncassaro, this is one of the best threads with some of the brightest people on Sucks. You have to understand that I call us all a bunch of brawling hotheaded idiots out of love and respect. ;-)

He is super-obnoxious and whines and pouts more than Sugar. If anyone dare disagree with any of his posts, he has a temper tantrum. I hope he DIAF.

In the season full of misleading edits, unless season 18 continues like Gabon, the rules of edgic shouldn't really be bent, but how is Bob's win justified by edgic?

Bob's win could have been predicted, just not EDGICALLY.

I'm just saying that you got it right with 5 people left (20% chance of guessing without having ever seen the show). I mean hey you got it but don't break your arm by patting yourself on the back or anything. In re: flf Hey I understand. Either way, the question was serious: where does the serious discussion of possible revision go?

She rolled her eyes when Sugar was talking about her dead father. That's a hundred times worse even than Steph's "gay" and "retarded". Anyone who picked Corrine after her INV episodes should be mocked...and then never allowed to make winner picks again. The irony is that if you people hadn't been so blinded by vagina love, you could have chosen Bob as your "just to be different" winner pick for the season, and gotten all the glory. This is one season where going off the radar actually would have worked. Except you STILL chose the one person who had zero chance of winning. I like how Casey is still pretending to possess even a modicum of credibility. Just because you weren't wrong about everyone doesn't mean your ideas ( I was on the receiving end of one particular rant on the immutability of the INV rule ) were correct and it doesn't release you from the responsibility of your past posts. ps: "Vagina love"? That is so trashy. pss: I, like Corinne, have an acerbic sense of humor and, even if I'm the only one, I love her.

It was only misleading and unpredictable because we didn't have any spoilers. KNOW THAT! I watched Cook Islands without spoilers, and I found that season to be actually pretty misleading and contradicting at times too. On the other hand, I have watched every season besides that since Vanatau with spoilers (and of course this one) and I have found the winner/outcome and other blindsides to be obvious. Of course its fucking unpredictable when you don't have a spoiler telling you what is going to happen.
