nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2005 If Ian & Tom were smart, they'd get rid of Jenn next, then Gregg, and leave it as the two of them, Caryn, and Katie as the final 4. Tom has Caryn wrapped around his finger, so could convince her to vote off Katie, leaving the two strong males and the weak female as the final 3. Of course, I doubt that'll happen.

starvenger 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2005 btw, Steph's popularity rating (on the official site) stood at 95% as of last week, which eclipses even Rupert's 92%. She's unofficially the most popular contestant ever now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2005 I think we may see an Ian-Gregg showdown at the end... Gregg's over-scheming came back to bite him ... if he'd played a little smarter, I think he would have won it all, too. /just bumping this to get it back on the main page, really Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2005 Yeah. Gregg thought he could be a Brian or a Boston Rob. Instead he's a Nurse John or a Burton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Positively Kanyon 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2005 That was brilliant strategy by Tom and Ian, that hopefully won't bite them on the ass down the track... But from what I saw from next week's episode, looks like Ian's in the shits with Katie for some reason... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2005 Tom & Ian should stick together - and carry Katie - until the final immunity challenge, and then whoever wins should take Katie as the other in the final 2. Not many people would choose her to get the money over either Tom or Ian, so she would be the safe choice. I'd vote out Jenn next, since Caryn won't want to turn against Tom (so she'd be safer to keep around). Then vote out Caryn and have it be the three that I mentioned as the final 3: Tom, Ian & Katie.

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 I think the biggest shocker tonight was Jenn voting for Caryn. Something went on there that we never saw. That was one of the better Survivors that I have seen, and this final 4 is dangerous. I don't know why Tom isn't working Jenn, because she's the key to the whole thing - not Katie. Tom should promise Jenn to bring her to the final 4, telling her that there is no way to break up Ian and Katie. Jenn has seen Katie bullshit TWICE now, both with Greg and Caryn... hell, 3 times with Steph. A final 3 with Ian and Katie would be death for her. If she paired with Tom, she'd almost be guaranteed a spot in the final 2, plus she'd have a chance to win considering she already has Gregs vote and probably Caryns.

Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 This is Tom or Ian's game to lose. With two ICs to go, you have to think that between them they will win both, and both would beat either of the girls in the vote. Which of the two is a good question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Positively Kanyon 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 I'm just pissed off that fat bitch Katie has managed to wrap Ian around her fat finger. She has done absolutely nothing to be in the final 4 and she keeps putting this guilt trip on Ian that he's backstabbed her and she was supposed to come to reward challenge with Ian, blah blah blah! Hello, wasn't Katie ready to flip on Tom and Ian with Gregg? I can't believe how blind this kid is too her, Tom can see it, and he told Ian straight up, but he's thinking with his dick instead of is head... Also, I've heard rumours that Ian throws Final 3 immunity challenge so Katie can go through... WHAT THE FUCK?!@#$$#%%^*&^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 I have no idea how Ian survived last night's TC; I thought for sure that he was a goner. I think that Tom's fucked next week, Ian's so whipped over having big Katie as his BFF that he'd rather screw over his one true ally to make sure she's happy. And I think if it's either Tom or Ian in the final 2 with Jenn, she'd win: Gregg, Steph, Janu, and Coby would probably vote for her against either guy, so it would just take one other vote to get the money. Tom can see it, and he told Ian straight up, but he's thinking with his dick instead of is head... ... doesn't Ian, ahem, prefer the company of men? I mean, the guy trains dolphins. The only thing gayer might be to train unicorns. Potentially major spoilers about the final 2: One of the survivor sucks message boards has spoilers saying that whe Janu (or it might have been Steph) slipped and already announced that Katie makes it to the final 2 ... the other one is allegedly Jenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 The way it breaks down for me is this: Ian vs anyone - Ian wins, although there's no way we'll see a Ian-Tom final. Tom vs anyone but Ian - Tom wins Katie vs Jenn - coin flip. Jenn actually impressed me last night, despite her initial obliviousness to all other alliances aside from her and Gregg. And somehow Katie has done a great job in her role in a Colby-Tina like alliance with Ian. Hey, has anyone noticed that Survivor has only had one all-guy final two?

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 I think Jenn beats Katie in the finals, if it's the two of them ... Gregg would vote Jenn for sure, and Janu/Coby/Steph likely would. Plus, if it gets down to the two girls, both Tom & Ian would probably have been screwed over by Katie to get there, so they'd vote for her, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Supposedly the first elimination is going to be a big surprise, but the only surprising thing to me would be if Tom teams up with the girls to take out Ian. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NYU 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 In my opinion, after Ian backed out of the Final Three Immunity to hand it off to Katie, I didn't think he was any more moral or had any more integrity. I just thought he was an idiot. He gave up his chance for a million dollars after standing on a pole for twelve hours on a silly whim of trying to improve his moral status, after telling Tom only a short while before that this was only a game. Then, in the end, Ian didn't give Katie his vote. What the hell was the point? Admittedly, I wasn't a fan of Tom. But it was hard not to feel bad for Katie in that final Tribal Council. Gregg, specifically, became an asshole for tearing her apart and calling her "pathetic" to her face. She probably didn't deserve to win the game, but she didn't deserve to get personally insulted like some of them did either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 FUCK YEAH TOM! Ian/Tom was an awesome rivalry for the few minutes it lasted. Those guys were two of the strongest players, they fished together, they played together, and then at the end with the two in the final challenge and neither backing down was fucking balls out... then Ian had to give up like a bitch...

Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 Tom dominated this game, both physically and mentally. If he couldn't win the jury vote, then something was seriously wrong. Never has a player on this show controlled the game the way Tom has from beginning to end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 Agreed. Tom fuckin rules. I felt pretty vindicated having my Day One pick go all the way and it took away some of the pain from the Romber Incident on Amazing Race. They need another All-Stars with a tribe of 21 vs Tom.

Zetterberg is God 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 The person that should have won did win. Tom is probably the greatest player that Survivor has ever had. Usually the overly dominant players get knocked out but he found a way to stay alive. Gregg's speech to Katie was awesome, and this season was pretty damn good overall.

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 Well wait.......Colby was just as awesome as Tom is. He just picked the wrong person to take to the final 2. Which was funny b/c my seat in the theater was next to Tina and I asked her if she thanked Colby for taking her and she said "I bought him a motorcycle!" Shit that must've been a nice motorcycle. But yes Tom not winning would've been a travesty. I was hoping Tom or Ian would win and I wanted a Tom vs. Ian showdown but I didn't get it. Damn. I was waiting for Ian and Katie to just start making out....the tension was there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 4 unrelated thoughts (well, technically 5, as there are two in the Katie paragraph, but I digress ........) I love how Coby got voted off for being so blatant about plotting against people, but yet continuously says it's because he was such a threat. Who does he think he was a threat to? Katie's a bitch for boo-hoo-hoo-ing all over Ian and basically guilt tripping him into quitting, even though she - more than once - had tried to plot against him. Plus, how is it that Ian looked like a Holocaust survivor yet Katie managed to get fatter as the 39 days went on? Tom might be the most worthy winner in the show's history ... he was the leader of the dominant team and then dominated the individual immunity challenges. No one other than him deserved to win. Steph joins Amber in the "smoking hot while on the island but much less hot when she's made-up in real life" category. And, please, don't post those Stuff Magazine pictures of Amber as 'proof' that she's really hot; with the airbrushing those magazines use, I'd be a hot girl. And I have my head shaved and a beard.
