    Purple is one of the challenge winners via NTOS you can see the prize in their camp.

    Purple is.....Domenick's tribe?  Not sure why Bradley unless as a solid Naviti.  Drama?  Wouldn't we have heard about if it was bad enought to throw a challenge and boot a solid number? 

    Domenick [NAVITI-NAVITI-NAVITI] Chelsea [NAVITI-MALOLO-NAVITI] Bradley [NAVITI-MALOLO-NAVITI] Libby [MALOLO-NAVITI-NAVITI] Donathan [MALOLO-NAVITI-NAVITI]

    If green were to lose Chris would be going home which is sad.  He seems to be a great meat shield and goat. 

    Orange, Angela or maybe Michael

    Maybe Malolo would be on a better streak if they didn’t vote off stronger members.  Again, James wasn’t great in the challenges, but Kellyn saying it was worth sacrificing muscle for numbers should help answer their question about why they suck.

    What does she care?  They can do the numbers math to the merge so if they keep losing but merge before it hits Navati its a actually a win for them.  Actually that could be strategic.

    When I first heard them saying that I thought they meant they were going to burn the flag they bring to Challenges. Can you imagine? "Come on in guys... Okay Malolo (with just some charred sticks to plant in the sand) what the fuck?" Heh. I'd love to see the look on Probst's face. "Sorry Jeff we had to do some ritual cleansing."

    That would be funny!  I wouldnt mind seeing that:)

  3. I'm reminded of the fact that Michael was the one who said he got along with Des and approached her the last time trying to find a crack.  Which she seemed to think was hysterical and stupid because why f with the numbers. 

    I do wonder though if Kellyn, who does not seem to like or trust Angela in any way, and Des got with Mike and said join us, next out Angela if we lose.  I'm not sure Angela is in the alliance she thinks she is just because she showed loyalty.

    They are probably merging after next week, which makes all these tribe swaps all the more irritating.

  5. So everyone is praying for the merge except maybe Domenick. 

    14 now, next tribal takes it down to thirteen so episode after next would be the merge most likely?

    The bootlists have pretty much sucked but if its mostly the order of premerge boots has been wrong then I suppose Bradley is next and then I bet that Angela is the first member of the jury.  

    But I can't believe NuNuMalolo doesnt lose again.  I wonder if the Navati throws a challenge. 

    Does that sound right?  I read something on reddit that sounded right, that Des and Kellyn sucked in Michael with promises without Angela knowing.  Angela had her chance and blew it I think. 

  6. Oh - found this on reddit

    Updated cheat sheet

    Naviti: (SAFE)

    Domenick [NAVITI-NAVITI-NAVITI] Chelsea [NAVITI-MALOLO-NAVITI] Bradley [NAVITI-MALOLO-NAVITI] Libby [MALOLO-NAVITI-NAVITI] Donathan [MALOLO-NAVITI-NAVITI]

    Malolo: (TRIBAL)

    Angela [NAVITI-NAVITI-MALOLO] Desiree [NAVITI-MALOLO-MALOLO] Kellyn [NAVITI-MALOLO-MALOLO] Michael [MALOLO-MALOLO-MALOLO] James [MALOLO-NAVITI-MALOLO]

    Yanuya: (SAFE)

    Chris [NAVITI-NAVITI-YANUYA] Sebastian [NAVITI-MALOLO-YANUYA] Wendell [NAVITI-NAVITI-YANUYA] Laurel [MALOLO-NAVITI-YANUYA] Jenna [MALOLO-MALOLO-YANUYA]

  7. Ha!  I knew they had stacked the urns in such a way as to back load all the good stuff at the end.  

    I'm not buying time excuse at all.  They had GI on the previous swap and tribal was short and boring.  I think you could count urns and figure out this isn't true, that maybe they planned on skipping an episode all along 

    http://www.goldderby.com/article/2018/jeff-probst-survivor-ghost-island-episode-6-recap-fate-is-the-homie-news/

    Ah, from reddit, this makes more sense

    Probst mentioned having more than 3 camera groups is too much too handle. So Ghost Island is probably gone til the merge.

    Basically you've all covered the high (low) lights of this episode.

    I'm just going to be petty and point out how distracted I was at TC by Kellyn strangely thin nose.  It's almost like she has an imaginary clothespin holding it closed.  I'm sorry to mention this, because now you'll all be distracted by it as well.

    OMG yes!  Her nose is so thin, the nostrils are so thin how does she breath? I was very distracted by that as well once I noticed.  I noticed because I was watching her mouth and teeth which I think are a lot like Bradley's.  Please never have a child together.

    We haven't seen anything negative about Libby, but he made her out to be the devil. Just one comment can ruin your game when you did absolutely nothing wrong to be targeted.

    I wondered if that was somehow overedited or edited several comments together because while she did vote out...Gonzalez?and got called some sort of backstabber by Gonzales, were they on the same team then?  I can't even remember.  Maybe Domenick had big plans for Gonzalez?  
    I do know that Probst seems to looooove Libby. Maybe thats why the edit of her game prowess?  Last 

    epi and this epi when he went up to take the idol, he beamed, she simpered.  Always a nice word for Libby. Is she like a god daughter or something?  Or does he do this with every Andrea type?

    And yeah, No Ghost Island. What a joke.

     

    Is no GI even fair?  Its supposed to be part of the game right?  They did a GI last swap so how did they not do one this time?  I could maybe accept skipping GI for the merge epi maybe.  And I swear in the preview for this upcoming episode Probst alluded to something new and exciting about GI.  Like, as in its missing?

    James seemed like a loyal guy to play with, so I don't know what Angela was thinking.  And, WTF Michael???

    Yea.  While I love a fellow vet and midwesterner I'm wondering if Kellyn's assessment about Angela wasn't on point.

    I don't know that anyone has gotten an edit quite like Chris. Well maybe Coach. It's not so much a villain edit, but more the most self-absorbed moron who has ever come on the island. And on this show, boy is that saying something!

     

    I suspect that Chris really is self-absorbed but that doesn't mean he doesn't know that he's self-absorbed and playing it up.  Normally I hate it when contestents are trying to make a reality show name/career for themselves by playing up/to the camera but in this case, if/hope that is what Chris is doing I fully approve.

    Chris is turning about to be one of my favorites this season. He is entertaining douche for sure and I have the feeling he is really playing it up during his confessionals. When he said that he didn't tell people he was a model because "for some reason people think we are self absorbed" I was dying.  I hope he sticks around for awhile.

    yes

    I didn't think it was fair that Wendell got to run back and get the bag at the challenge.  The other tribes had to bring their bags while blindfolded.  When he realized they had left it behind he ran back and got it.  That tribe won.  I just thought it was a bit unfair.  The tribe should have had to go back blindfolded and retrieve it.

    I thought the same thing, like Probst was going to yell out - you lose, didn't follow the rules!  I mean they do get to go back to the beginning when they fall off a skinny bridge thing etc. but this was a bit more than that.

    BTW! Chris still hasn't been to Tribal Council, right? Who am I to speak ill of him. He’s obviously doing some thing right. Pretty amazing statistics. Has someone gone longer? Who holds the record without going to a Tribal Council the longest?

     

    I think Chris hasnt been to TC because he has been an amazing fucking competitor in all the challenges.  He's pretty much won 3 at least including his call on the puzzle when they first hit the beach.  I think his constant butting in an talking about himself is, at least in part, just another symptom of him playing as hard as he fucking can.  Full bore, never relaxes, always playing hard.  It will probably bite him in the butt but I've liked him from day one for sheer effor even if he is annoying.

    Angela needs to get out of her own way. She was lucky the other two women didn’t join with the guys and vote her out. Kellan was justified in worrying  about whether Angela would vote with them. Of course, Kellan telling Angela that Des was her number 1 ally didn’t set Angela at ease either.  

     

    I just sat right up when Kellyn told Angela that Des and her were so tight.  I'm mentally screaming Angela!  Pay Attention!  You are on the bottom!  Make a play!  disappointed in Angela.

    , at the idols and advantages to come.  I’m not even shocked anymore when more than one person pulls out an idol on top of someone else having an advantage, and there ending up being 3 people out of 10 left to vote for because it suddenly rains free immunities for the chosen ones.  I think I’m more shocked they play the dramatic music before someone stands up and walks up to Probst and he has to hide his grin at what amazing TV he thinks this is.

     

    Exactly.  When all the urns were duds I thought oh holy hell they've stacked the deck so there will be amazing numbers of weird idols, advantages towards the end.

    Both Laurel and Wendell got scenes this episode showing them establishing relationships (Laurel with Jenna and Wendell with Sebastian) that have thus far had no direct impact on the game—Laurel had another one last week with Donathan. My guess is that they're both in it for the long-haul and these scenes are there to establish how they win/why they're voted out as likeability threats/why certain players feel betrayed by them later on.

    I realize it would have taken away from the suspense of Tribal Council, but I wish we had seen what it was that made Michael and Angela vote for James. Specifically, I'm curious if Michael was tipped off that Angela was voting for James and saw no point in voting for Desiree, or if Angela was tipped off that Michael was going to vote with Kellyn and Desiree and so went with them. At this point, Michael, Kellyn, and Desiree have been on a tribe together longer than Michael was with James and Kellyn and Desiree were with Angela. Furthermore, Kellyn and Desiree are aligned with Bradley, who is aligned with Domenick. This means that their ties to Angela and Chris are not strong. I wonder if Michael might actually be ahead of Angela in the pecking order on Malolo, despite all of Kellyn's talk about being "Naviti strong".

     

    I think you are right, that these relationships will figure big after the mege and thats  why they are being shown.  Also good call on how these original alliances seem sort of meaningless.  Or manybe not who can keep track?  I read all the cast bio's and got to know who was who individually right from the start.  But I have no idea about alliances anymore.  Original, old, now old old and new?  WTF.

    Anyhow, the three I'm rooting for at this point are Michael, Laurel, and Wendell. 

    I already liked the first two, and Laurel impressed me further last night when she talked about her strategy of just being whatever that person, in the moment, needs her to be. She not only rocks in challenges, but she's playing a killer social game. 

    But Wendell really won me over last night. First, I thought it was darling that he remembered Sebastian's shell and brought it to him. But his performance in that challenge? He was the epitome of a good leader. Calm, supportive, gave very clear directions. I was actually rooting for a tribe to win for the first time this season. Very well deserved. 

    Desiree, on the other hand, was AWFUL. I always say - don't put a girl up there as the caller. Their voices simply don't carry as well as the men's. Plus, didn't she fuck up a puzzle on day one? WHY would she be the pick as leader of this challenge??? 

    She should have gone home. That was just pitiful. I get wanting to keep numbers strong, but what are numbers once you hit the merge? I mean, Angie KNOWS her tribe already didn't have her back. She's low hanging fruit. Making a move like that, saving James, could have really garnered her some loyalty from him and Michael. Loyalty that's forged from actual game play is going to get you father than loyalty that exists because of the tribe you just happened to get put on on day one. 

    And maybe I wouldn't be saying all this if the person I wanted to go went home....ha! But I was really hoping Ang would flip. Sorry, James.

    I'm going to need Libby to go soon just because of those stupid, little, white, lacy shorts. 

    I want to believe that Michael the precocious game genius that also is gorgeous but I'm kind of disappointed in last night.  At fifteen you normally will be losing at least 2 people before the merge.  At least I read that the merge usually happens btw 11-13.  So based on those numbers and voting out a physical challenge guy - you have just cut your chances of making the merge.  It would have been smarter to try to get Angela to flip on KELLYN as the (1) biggest post merge threat, (2) not a physical challenge plus and (3) Des's big ally.  
    Same for Angela - vote that Kellyn out!  Her and Bradley have been the power couple - don't go into the merge with that!  

    The only thing I can think of why is that if Angela is assuming she makes the merge she doesn't want to be seen as stabbing Kellyn/Des in the back because she will be in an alliance with......who?  This is the problem I no longer have any idea other than Chris and I can't remember if Kellyn et all have ever been on a tribe with him.  

    I was just so frustrated.  Why Des, who cares that she fucked up the challenge? Its not strategy to vote out Des, its....retribution? Stupid way to play.

    And why did Kellyn put Des in charge since she is probably calling the shots,why on gods green earth would she put Des in charge of a puzzle?  Kellyn fucked that up I think, not Des.  Unless Des begged to be the one which I find hard to believe. 

    I liked Wendell untill he slowly killed that beautiful sea creature.  He kept saying, "yea it was still alive" Fuck you dude.  There are usually empty shells.  I mean unless you ate it which this didn't look big enough and obviously not since it stank.  

    And Jenna and SeaBass stay on the same tribe.........right

    I thought tonights episode name should have been - Guys brag about themselves.  My west coast friend who watches doesn't want spoilers but always wants a take on the show, my text was "boring but worse stupid".

  10. Guess I'm still waiting to see if SeaBass/Jenna's relationship ends up in game play somehow.  I wish it had saved Stephanie, but now that that's over I'm not sure how i want to see it go down. 

    IDK, I didn't love Stephanie but she was playing.  I on't like Bradley at all but I don't want a bunch of UTR non players left standing around watching Chris and Domenic fight, picking the winner and they cruise to the end either.  

  11. Interesting speculative predictions.  I was going to post it in that thread but since there aren't really spoilers anywhere I thought I'd post it here.  The boot spoilers have been fairly wrong but some have predicted Bradley and James pre merge right?  This article "predicts" Bradley tonight although I'm not sure how. 

    http://www.goldderby.com/article/2018/survivor-episode-6-preview-jeff-probst-ghost-island-fate-is-the-homie-news/

    That comment by Jeff at the end of the 10 s preview "Brand new start to Ghost Island" suggests they change the rules somehow?  Ramp it up?  Sea Bass predicted tonights go to GI.

    Fate is to the homie - sounds like a SeaBassim. Goes to GI and gets something good sounds like 

     

    As to the casting producer - I guess our  cast people not characters is not going to happen.  Apparently the characters thing is only going to get worse?

  13. So in that casting of future seasons on reddit I saw this - are they referring to big brother?

    At least Survivor still casts people who play the game, I am so fucking embarrassed that for every Vanessa or Paulie, we get five people like Matt or Christmas on Big Brother.

    The woman that cast Matt and Raven is now casting for Survivor.

  15. No positive updates on the money they get except for during that recent TMZ reporting on the thew cop recruit the said "gets a minimum of 10,000"

    It does seem like the amount of money should have gone up after all this time.  I wonder why they haven't given away a car or anything in years? 

    Speaking of introverts in the game, rewatching Africa it was Kelly I think talking about Frank  and his being an introvert like it was just some heinous crime and finished he need to get therapy.  Frank wasn't likeable bu that's  not because he was an introvert, I was so F' you bitch.  Sorry she even made the jury.  

    Some really great older players on Africa.

  17. He has an agent?  Wow.  When I saw the picture on TMZ I thought they were talking about one of the other guys who was better looking. 

    Ah.  Reading the article these guys got popular on the internet during Hurricane Irma.  So maybe he has been trying to leverage that into something.

    But that was after I wondered - are those real cops?  Because they actually didn't look like it to me.  Most cop shops don't allow beards but apparently Gainesville must. 

    Which leads to my last "I wonder why".........so many cops and no fireman on Survivor?  I think fireman are hotter, more physically fit and more versatile in what they can do.

  18. I understood how he felt too.  I know if I were on Survivor I would have at least a bunch of horrible humiliating moments!  That has to be hard.  And of course as a superfan it sort of doubles the feeling of feeling stupid.  

    Of course Cochran had a the same sort of experience his first season.  I feel like Jacob was cast as a "find me a Cochran!"  However he didn't last as long and Probst didn't develop a crush so it all seems so much worse for Jacob.  Couldn't stand Cochran and feel like his second season was what everybody accusses Boston Robs winning season to be. 

    Can't say I liked Jacob enough to want to see again but he was fine by me.  I wouldn't have minded seeing him around longer.  If only he had waited to dangle his fake idol at TC it might not have looked like quite such a inane move.  

    As to being friends with everyone, I wonder if thats on his end or has been on their end?  That might be causing some of the sadness.

  19. I saw this last night and wasn't sure if he was being cast for 38 or 39, guess I missed the part about next season. 

    The thing that struck me most was he looked so much like Michael.  

    I'm getting pretty sick of how alike everyone is.  Token teenager - casting a Michael?  Capt America - that could be Chris to me 

    Just really tired of  the - get me a Cochran, get me a Boston Rob, get me a Michael recruitment. 

    Stephanie had applied 15 times and is plenty hot and a good player - any problems they are having with casting is bullshit on themselves and their stupid ideas about this being Big Brother.

    It doesn't bother me.  My daughter's dream job is to be a dolphin trainer.  It's not because she wants to exploit dolphins into performing for humans.  It's because she really loves dolphins and this is one of the only ways one can have regular interaction with them.  She loves animals and regularly reads nonfiction books about all kinds of marine life and knows more about dolphins and penguins than I ever will.  

    I think zoos and marine parks are great places to learn about animals.  I know animal activists think that the only place to see an animal should be in the wild, but that's simply not practical or cost-sensitive for 99% of people.

    So while I found a lot to dislike about Morgan, I can't hate on her for her job.   Just like how I think the world of male modeling is... curious.   And here on this show we have two.  One seems a bit overly impressed with himself and has really rubbed Dominick and one or two others the wrong way, and has seemingly turned off a lot of viewers.  The other is well spoken and playing well and seems to be a fan favorite.  I can't dislike anyone for their job, everyone has to make a living somehow.

    Not the appropriate argument for the " I love it" as an justification for abuse argument.  Lets just say that its a meaningless argument.  Lots of abuse goes on with "but I love you/it/them" as a reason/justification/plea for mercy.  Its meaningless

    There is a difference between game hate and IRL hate and yea, I hate her IRL because while I'm sure she can be fun and do good things, not good enough.
