Tyson (not sure about his invisible episode last night though), and now JT as a definite contender. If Ken wasn't given an INV last season for that one episode, then Tyson shouldn't have one for this one. But I actually thought Ken was INV that time, so... No thoughts on Brendan's Yul-copycat confessional? Interesting. |

I felt Joe was OTT5. From knee to exile not working out to him finding the fake idol and assuring Syndey safety... I thought Joe was just a blundering fool!

Ktty, how does JT get a 3 strategy and Stephen a 2? Just curious.

JT just seemed to have a slight bit more strategy than Stephen this episode, plus his higher visibility rating.

Joe - OTT5 - No doubt, completely fooled by Taj, and he thinks he has the game figured out. ELIMINATED
JT- CP5 - I can see a slight P tone for him, he was shown as too much naïve in my opinion, I don't it was good for him. And add to this his confessional about the huge importance in winning the immunity challenge, which his tribe lost because of him. I don't know how come it can be good for his chances. NOT LOOKING GOOD Stephen - CP4 - with a slight N tone. He got a great episode in my opinion, though he's looking like Rob C. He's still my top contender for now, I'll wait the merge episode to give my last call. TOP CONTENDER Sydney - MOR2 - ignored in her boot episode, sad to see her go. She's really beautiful. Taj - MOR4 - I didn't see any complexity in Taj, she had to be shown in all her scenes. I can see her making the F3, she has, in my opinion, clearly jury connections with Joe (her outburst in last episode) and also a possible jury connection with JT (She doesn't need the money, 'cause she's married to Eddie George). Colleenlover, what do you think about these possible jury connections? ALMOST ELIMINATED Coach - MORN3 - I can see an OTTN for him. ELIMINATED Brendan - MOR2 - He's taking the spot of the narrator of the tribe, it's never good. ALMOST ELIMINATED Debbie - UTR1 - she had 2 confessionals, right? ELIMINATED Erinn - MOR2 - I think she had a good episode, she talked about her position (and not about Coach or Tyson), she had goos confessionals on the Exile Island, not enough for CP. but they were game related. She's my top 3. TOP CONTENDER Sierra - UTR1 - she had a confessional about her conflict with Coach and that's all, considering her tribe didn't need to go to TC for a while it was good. She's my top 2. TOP CONTENDER Tyson - INV1 - I didn't see anything important about him, yes he had presence in the challenge, but it was not like Kenny in last season when the editors emphasized him winning the challenge for Fang. Tyson had to be shown, because he was the only one in his tribe to use the slingshot, so... ELIMINATED CONTENDER'S LIST 1. Stephen 2. Sierra 3. Erinn 4. JT 5. Brendan 6. Taj |

JALAPAO
Joe - CP5 (He is going home soon) J.T. - CP5 (Matty v. 2) Stephen - CP4 (Great episode, but I still see him as coming up short..) Sydney - MOR2 (Poor girl) Taj - CP4 (I seriously love her, I hope she's in the finals. But I see her screwing over everyone and then getting screwed over just before the finals) TIMBIRA Brendan - MOR2 Coach - MORN2 (Please leave my television screen) Debbie - UTR1 (She's gonna come on strong after the merge and become the "fan favorite" if it's not Taj) Erinn - MOR2 (Good episode for her I think) Sierra - UTR1 (Even though she was barely there this was definitely an episode she could have been invisible and she wasn't, I think that says a lot.) Tyson - INV1 (Kenny was INV last year as was Tyson this year IMO) Winners list... 1. Sierra 2. Stephen 3. Erinn 4. Brendan Eliminated: Debbie, Joe, Coach, Tyson |

Kitty Pryde1 wrote: Yeah, JT might have talked more about strategy, but his perspective was flawed. He was led to his conclusions by Stephen, without him knowing it. It's as if JT was a power piece in chess, thinking him so wise to be dropping the bishops and pawns in the other color, without knowing there is a hand moving him around. The 3 doesn't indicate quantity. It's a quality thing. I'd give him a 1 (maybe a 2 to be generous) - he was not stupid, but he was certainly not the proactive strategic force in this episode. |

Here is a summary of the merge episode ratings for the post-ASS winners:
Chris CP4; Tom MOR4; Danni MORP2; Aras CP3; Yul CPP5; Earl CP4; Todd CPN4; Parvati CPN3; Bob OTTP3 6 of the 9 were CP, 5 of the 9 were visibility 4/5 (and the 2 Edgic outliers Danni/Bob were among the outliers here). This should give us something to go on if the winner is male. With only 2 females in the sample, the data is useful depending on how big you think the female-winner-editing bias is. |

Seems Coach will be getting the boot next. Just like Roger in the Amazon, he'll clearly not know his place in the game - a blindside.
Back to Joe at 9 for another blindside. Then Tyson, who somehow won't see it coming. Then JT...as the cross tribe alliance flips back and forth, seemingly never in control so they don't get caught. Finally Erinn, then Debbie. Taj out at the final 4. Stephen or Brendan as the winner. Depends who win the final immunity. Feels like Stephen's story. |

I'm in an overpriced motel in a questionable area. The place is crawling with drunk, loud conventioneers and I need some sleep before flying all day,
Saturday.
Next week looks like Call Your Winner Week. |

I think of the merge as almost another ep 1. Should be interesting.

And no ILT, I will not shut the fuck up. I bring up valid points but the retarded Erinn fanclub parades around Edgic like they are gods and Erinn is already locked up as the winner. Erinn would have far more depth to her if she was going to win. She's a one night crybaby that outcasted herself and continues to put herself in bad positions. Erinn should have discussed mutinying to Jalapao to save herself or mention that Brendan/Sierra/Taj/Stephen probably already have the idols. Instead she assumes they are still there and she/Joe are going to get them and control the gameNo you don't. Even if you think your points are valid, you're like a broken record. We get it. You don't like Erinn, and therefore you think she can't win. Enough. |

No you don't. Even if you think your points are valid, you're like a broken record. We get it. You don't like Erinn, and therefore you think she can't win. Enough. And you like Erinn, therefore you think she will probably win (or at least top two). This same argument can be made both ways. Stop getting angry when people don't think Erinn can win--I've already eliminated her, but is isn't personal. Her edit just sucks, in my opinion. I think the fans need to calm down, no one is going to die if your favorite loses. But hey, I'm not complaining. Erinn didn't even break the Top 5 last week on the official chart. |

My opinions on edits and how much I like someone are two separate things, as they've always been.

Notes on Outliers:
Tom has the vis, but not the complexity or tone. Danni only has the tone (showing manipulation) but not the vis or a lot of complexity. Bob actually fits 2/3 with a nod for his close call.

The problem with the Erinn supporters is that they can't see the forest through the trees. What do the edits for these previous winners (Yul, Earl, Todd,
Parvati) have in common? Their edits all showed them explaining their approach to the game as well as showed them strategizing. A late developing winner like
Bob will have to do a lot to overcome a weak early edit that has him/her being principally a tourist early on. Bob did by crafting fake idols and winning
challenges. Erinn's chances are poor even compared to the last female winner to come out of nowhere which was Danni. No one ever referred to Danni as a
cancer or a bitch. Erinn is a losing finalist at best.

People are taking the editing too much at face value like it's a movie and not a reality game. Just because someone gets bullied like Erinn does not make
them golden. The contrary it probably means the pecking order is killing them and they desperately need to make a strategy to save their ass. Erinn's had a
shitload of time to do that and has not come up with anything (except for Joe which is useless), it just doesn't bode well for her.

Yeah, Erinn seems like yet another Amanda or Alexis. Recognizable start, but not that strong, followed by basically no focus (even when she goes to EI) aside
from one or two episodes in the middle. Erinn seems to be this season's young brunette that gets a lot of winner support despite having a not great edit.
