How Bout That

If you saw the season, you know that Parvati was not working with Russell, though Russell was trying to work with her. Russell gave her an idol and she used it to preserve her voting alliance (which included Sandra and did not include Russell). Parvati also made the unprecedented move of playing two idols at a tribal council, neither of which were for herself and she also won multiple individual challenges. The jury didn't see all that; they voted for whoever else was left. Unfortunately that was Sandra.

So, you missed the last two seasons? Where people were practically dropping dead and the castaways had to be evacuated due to a hurricane.

Yes, Sandra was just there ("who you wan me vote"). It sickens me that Ms. FUTR is coming back yet again. Hope she is first out.

Yes. Just like so many loved Boston Rob even though he was a self-described moron. I'll be happy to never see him again.

Jeff glosses over the rock draw because he hates it. What he wants is for the contestants to grow a set and pick someone.

That's how they got on the show. People who behave like adults, perform well together, complete tasks quickly and efficiently and have no serious phobias are not welcome on that show.

You shouldn't get points just for being there besides the others are there too so it's a wash. The other three have all won individual challenges and so far Aubry has done nothing. She is inept at anything that involves moving. She also wanted to tap out the first day and I have zero respect for that, zero.

They probably don't mind flying them in but MEDEVACing them all out can be expensive.

See, told you. I bet she wins.

Not for nothin' but what I wrote was that Tai has won multiple individual challenges and that much is true. I specifically focused on individual challenges because that is the best indicator of how a player did in the Outplay portion of the competition. Unfortunately, since at least HvV, it has become abundantly clear that FTC juries are absolutely not interested in identifying that player who actually did Outwit, Outplay and Outlast (although outlast is irrelevant in FTC). Nowadays, it's good enough to tell the jury that you have a wife at home and they will forgive you for being the male Chauvinist pig that you so clearly embodied in your previous season. That's what happened last season, so maybe Aubry has a shot at the million but she certainly is not the best player out there.

Well of course you are. Let's go by what we see on the show.

Sure she could make that argument...and be lying. What in the world did she have to do with that ouster? She didn't know that the plan was for Tai to give the II to Scot and make a super idol. After the votes were read, Tai just sat there and did nothing, there was no prompting by Aubrey. Aubrey has a very weak FTC case, especially against Tai. Aubrey has won zero Individual challenges and Tai has won multiple. Tai has made multiple large game changing moves, Aubrey has not. Tai has found an HII and scored some extra votes, Aubrey has won diddly-squat. Aubrey has come up with a couple of decent ideas but she fails to make them come to fruition. There is an interview on CBS where Probst says that Michelle reminds him of Parvati. Michelle is nothing like Parvati, I can only imagine he might think something like that because he knows Michelle made FTC.

I agree but Sandra Diaz had a similar strategy. She just popped in once a week and asked "who you wan me vote," and spent the rest of the time FUTR. Worked for her (twice) and some people actually liked her.

Just wondering, are women allowed to drive in Dubai?

Could anybody see what the Chinese dish was? I suppose if you're starving you'll eat just about anything but it seems kind of cruel to offer them a type of food that always includes lots and lots of rice. Oh well, at least it's more nutritious than ice cream.
