Survivor 16: Micronesia - Fans vs. Favorites - Page 2

Brutul Tarew Marr · 02-08-2008, 11:15 AM

I wonder if Fairplay really wanted to go home, or if he thought one of the alliances was on his side and they were setting up the other one to think everyone was voting for him. Has anyone actually been backstabbed on the very first vote before? Either way I'm glad he's gone cause he was annoying as hell.

It looks like they succeeded in getting a couple retards on the fans side that will make the first person voted out an easy decision as well. The fans did get the puzzle stuff done way faster and seemed to be working together better than the favorites which was a surprise considering how well the favs got their camp together and formed their alliances.

I think the girl in the wagon on the favorites side got her clock cleaned pretty well when they crashed their wagon. She looked like she was trying really hard not to cry. That pro-wrestler looking dude could destroy James I think. James has nice muscle definition but the big guy looked powerful and despite his size James never really did that well in challenges on China aside from one or two early ones.

Yeah, the chick who took a header into the wagon rail got owned pretty hard.

Even though Fairplay wasnt in anyones crosshairs (and besides thinking you could take him to the final vote with you, I have no clue why) and actually had a pretty powerful position, I think he didn't trust either side at all.

He definitely didn't want to go home, that was all bull shit. He was trying to pull a move that Dr. Will pulled in Big Brother all stars I think. He was targeted in the first episode by everyone because they knew he was a schemer, so he told everyone that he wanted to go home. Every episode he continued to say he wanted to go home and they kept him there with the excuse that they could send him home later. Fairplay overplayed it, and it was obvious. Him trying to say he went out on his terms was bs as well, if his move would have worked he would have bragged about it to the cameras.

Also, my pick for the fans is the kid who was throwing sand on the favorites (awesome move btw). He seems to want to play the game like Ozzy did and Ethan?(africa winner) before him. I think any fans who are schemers and make it to the merge will be big targets to go home. A low key player who isn't a brute but can still win challenges has the best chance.

And if any fan makes it to the final 3 I believe they will win (assuming the other two are favorites).

I didn't think about it until today, but that "I want to get home to my baby" stuff was total crap. When you get voted off you don't go home, you go hang out with the crew until the 45 days are up. Everybody goes home at the same time regardless of when they get booted.

It is kinda crappy to go off on a 45 day trip 2 months before your girlfriend is supposed to give birth though.

Soygen · 02-11-2008, 06:27 PM

You sure everyone stays the 45 days? I thought only the jury does.

same here

I think they all have to stay. It would be a spoiler for the show if anyone came home early.

Soygen · 02-12-2008, 09:20 AM

I could swear I have heard interviews the next day etc, with people who got kicked off pre-jury.

Brutul Tarew Marr · 02-12-2008, 09:45 AM

The day after the episode airs, but it's all filmed before the first episode hits TV.

Soygen · 02-12-2008, 10:29 AM

True that. If they do have to stay, that has to suck to be the first one to go. I wonder if you're allowed to have a guest or anything.

Kuriin · 02-12-2008, 11:01 AM

I'm glad Fairplay went home. He's a poor manipulative sap, IMHO.

Nope, no one can know when you got kicked off, you aren't even allowed to call home till the whole thing is over and the jury votes are in.

First off Amanda is fucking HOT!!!! Grats Ozzy.

The exile island twist was okay not great. I didn't like how the two tribe chicks worked together, come on you are looking for a hidden immunity idol why help your opponent?

I liked the total blindside tonight at the tribal council but...Chet sucked ass at the challenge, why the hell didn't those people vote him off? That made no sense to me. He didn't even try to look for the key and then he walked out of the water, taking his time like an asshole. Get rid of the dead weight in the beginning, I thought these guys were fans? They should know how to play this game. On top of this they split the tribe and have 2 different shelters one with 3 people and with 7 people. Conflict after 4 days is really bad, but the tribe being split when they are doing challenges as a team is horrible.

The favorites are by far the most fun part of the show to watch right now imo. They do all of the survival and gameplaying stuff so effortlessly right now and on top of that the romances are pretty fun to watch. It will be interesting to see what happens when there is a merge.

Ejukated · 02-14-2008, 09:24 PM

For some reason, watching this season makes me want to go on Survivor insanely bad. I think I will grow some balls and apply as soon as an application for next season goes up.

Also, the Hulk guys move to vote the girl off wasn't the smartest, but that guy is gonna cause a ton of drama and backstabbing on the fans side. Should be fun to watch. After campaigning to vote the girl off he didn't even vote for her, he voted for Tracy(one of the older three).
