Yul and Earl are my 2 favorite winners. Both were nice guys (IIRC), and they made it look so easy.

Agreed.

I always felt Earl's was more impressive than Yul's due to the fact that his II was required to be played before the votes were read unlike Yul's which was a get out of Jail Free card.

But, Yau-Man got screwed that season and played one of the best games since Rob C.

Some interesting facts about Earl

- Earl agreed to appear on the show two days prior to the filming.

- Earl never saw Survivor and hardly knew what it was when he got recruited to be on Survivor: Fiji.

- Earl is one of six Sole Survivors to win Survivor without winning Individual Immunity.

Some interesting facts about that season

- Prior to the start of filming, Mellisa McNulty suffered a severe panic attack and the Medical Team deemed her participation in the game too risky, thus she was pulled from the competition. As a result, this was the first season with an odd number of castaways.

- On December 5, 2006 (Day 37), a coup d'état was initiated by Fiji's military leader, Frank Bainimarama. While there was some speculation that a full evacuation of the Survivor crew members from Fiji would take place, only a few crew members on the mainland were relocated to the second-smallest island. However, the political turmoil prior to the coup did prevent the families of the cast members from coming to Fiji to participate in a reward challenge (as usually occurs on Survivor) that occurred towards the end of filming.

Looks like the viewers were the ones who lost out with that one.

[PinkydaPimp]

agreed. maybe top 3 best tribals i have seen.

Now, i think there is concern that they both played idols because now folks will assume they are together and target them.

 

[stbugs]

What a freaking moron. Her poor little feelings got hurt. Kass has no shot. Why blow up your advantage? Stay 6, whittle the other tribe down and then dump Sarah. Sarah wouldn't flop knowing she got all 5 votes and 3 of your 6 is from the original brain tribe. Also, if Sarah acts like she is calling the shots, it is easier to get rid of her. Then you are up 3-2 and you are all but guaranteed to be in the final 3.

Nope, she got her feelings hurt. Oh, boo hoo, she said you were being a bully. Man, I thought Lawyers were smart. She has torpedoed every alliance she has had so far. She is a firm #6 in her 6 now. Any of the rest of those 5 would be crazy to trust someone who flops without even telling you. Who's to say she doesn't try to flop back?

I mentioned earlier in this thread that I thought she was one of the worst because she made allies in her own tribe and then on a whim went with J-Tia and caused her tribe to get weaker and keep losing, then she ditches J-Tia, then she ditches Tasha and Spencer. She is terrible as a player.

One more thought. She is so bad that she even torpedoed the 2 idols in her new alliance. She was so gung ho on getting rid of Sarah and wanted to everyone to be surprised that she didn't tell Tony and LJ that she voted for Sarah and to put away their idols.

That said, it was an interesting tribal.

Yup. Total #######.

 

[Corporation]

Great tribal but I don't like them live tweeting. From reading the earlier one I had no doubt that Jeffra was safe. If Mile High's is true (putting it in spoilers in case he hides his:

Spoiler

Then I think we can safely assume the 2 real brains aren't in the finals either

 

[stbugs]

Also, do lawyers ever do well on this show? It seems like they can argue in their own mind and make any decision seem correct. Kass told David that she wanted J-Tia out. It didn't happen and then she bonded with Garrett and Spencer. Then J-Tia loses the challenge all by herself (slowest swimmer and can't do a puzzle) and then dumps the rice, showing her to be the person you want to be in an alliance with and the other girl says she wants to talk to people other than Kass about strategy. Then what does Kass do? She votes with J-Tia and the accountant and acts like it was the right move. Crazy. For all the dumb moves so far, she is at the top. She has never had to worry about getting voted off and then sides with the one person who actually threatened her?

Man, I called it early. She has flopped so many times and I don't think a single one has helped her position. She has never been in trouble, yet she has no put herself in trouble. The 5 hate her and don't trust her now and the other 5 didn't even know she voted with them and probably don't trust her either. I wouldn't want her on my alliance unless I had to have her vote. I'd rather swing one of the other 5. Why do you want a known flopper who doesn't even help you keep the IIs your team has?

 

[Mile High]

Kass will go down as one of the worst players in Survivor history.

 

[Mario Kart]

Yeah, nice tribal to watch but what a dumb move to make. So dumb.

I thought they played it so well when I saw Jefra's name come up. The other tribe just sat there shell shocked. The brains had this tribal and the game in hand. All blown up though. So dumb. Also showed that Sarah can be reasoned with and is not as dumb as some may think. She didn't want Jefra's name down at all but she still wrote it down. She was with that tribe and the only one to splinter was Kass.

Jefra is pretty hot. Sarah is a pure butterface although she doesn't seem all that bad. Morgan's Survivor diet might make her more great.

So dumb.

 

[krista4]

Truly awful.

Great season, though.

 

[Mario Kart]

Two of these women forgot to take some Midol this season.

Kass and Lindsay - WTF?

Tony was happy tonight. Cheered like tribal fell the way he planned it. What a doofus. Kass = No chance of winning even if she says there is a lot of game left. NO CHANCE.

[Beerguzzler]

Kass will go down as one of the worst players in Survivor history.

Yea that was an awful move. How does flipping and being the 6th player on the other alliance help you? Terrible, terrible, terrible. It was perfectly setup to be 6-4. Now it's 5-5 and she has an entire tribe gunning for her. Just a ####### awful move.

I would say it was a top 10 moment, but top 3 tribal councils. I don't like Tony, but that was a ballsy move.

Kass knew the minority was going for Sarah. So, she could have stuck with her tribe, made no enemies, flushed two idols, and worst case the idols save someone and Sarah goes home anyway, making it 5-5. Worst case. Best case she's up 6-4 and can vote out Sarah next anyway. She made a big move to settle for what she would have had by doing nothing at all.

 

[Mile High]

The flip made zero sense. She went from a strong position and if she made F3 a chance to win, to bottom of a new alliance and even if somehow she makes F3 chance no hope of winning. I hope Morgan continues to call her out and hangs #### on her as long as she can.

[Daywalker]

Doesn't appear that anyone on Kass' alliance understands the social game. Kass obviously on edge over Sarah yet neither Tasha nor Spencer calm her down while assuring her that Sarah will be gone once they use her. The brains should have had the inner alliance on the team with numbers. Yet none of them communicated that. Truly poor play.

Kass also made enemies of half the jury pool. Spencer said as much.

 

[Jefferson the Caregiver]

Kass is the classic case of being ignored her whole life. She just wanted to make a Survivor move to be remembered.

I agree that as far as strategy goes, she may be the worst ever.

She's so used to losing all her life that she didn't realize she actually could be remembered for winning the game instead.

the constant whining to the camera "what about me.. why so worried about her.. what about ME! " showed how insecure she really is.

At the same time,... glad Sarah got the boot .. Always fun to see someone who thinks they have all the power get

 

[Mario Kart]

At the same time,... glad Sarah got the boot .. Always fun to see someone who thinks they have all the power get

But, Sarah knew her way, voting Tony, may not have been able to work. At first sight of the idol, them saying outloud "The Other One", and with Sarah writing down Jefra, it showed Sarah knows how to play the game. She may not have liked writing down Jefra but she understood the reasons for doing so even if she was so adamant about Tony.

Kass is just plain f'ing stupid.

I agree Sarah was playing well.. but she, as well as the rest of the group, had to have known they were alienating Kass.. She made it very clear with her reactions that she didn't like the way her opinion was being tossed aside..

Sarah was being as much of a *itch as Kass so I was glad one of them got the boot.

If we can now get rid of Trish & Kass next, in either order, I'll be happy.

It wasn't too awful watching her balance on that floating challenge either.

 

[Jayrok]

That was a crazy tribal. If Kass wouldn't have been a doosh they could have weakened the other tribe as well as flushed two idols. It would have been epic. I hate that KJ felt obligated to give his idol to Tony, but he would have been trashed later if he didn't and they found out he had one.

People are blaming Kass, and for good reason... but Sarah messed things up by arguing against the vote for Jefra. Kass and Spencer were smart in thinking KJ and Tony had idols, so why not get rid of Jefra or Trish first and try to flush one out in the process? I think both Kass and Sarah screwed up.

I feel bad for Spencer. Dude has survived a terrible tribe and everytime it appears he is in good shape, wham, rug is pulled out from under him. I'm pulling for Spencer now. And Morgan has glorious puppies.

I think that is the biggest part of the tribal. Her alliance got everything they could ever want. Both idols flushed out and they go up 6-4.

I agree with all the sentiment above, I couldn't stand Kass from the beginning. She thinks she is smart, so much that she can convince herself that she is making all the right moves and she has played about as bad as one could play the game. Going from a great position of power being 1 of 3 inside of 6 with 3 other splintered folks against a group of 4 with no more IIs and having NO target on her back at all to being #6 of 6 with a huge target on her back and minus 5 in the jury has to be one of the most epic worst moves ever.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Kass didn't cover herself in glory, but I think Sarah played much worse. Kass read Sarah 100% right in that she was wavering, and Sarah's fighting not to vote out certain people on the other tribe looked really bad.

If Sarah had stayed true to her six, or at least kept her confusion to herself, she'd still be in the game and with an alliance that was up 6-4 despite having flushed both idols out. But she got cocky.

Hubris, believing you're "in control" of the game, always kills players. And it killed Sarah. She was so sure she was the Queen of Survivor that she felt comfortable acting like it and telling everyone that her vote would be the decisive one. Terrible play -- all it did was fracture her alliance and get her voted out.

LJ giving the idol to Tony was also dumb. After Tony showed the idol there was no chance they were voting for him. LJ should have given it to one of the women since Woo and he, and probably Tony too, were already protected. It worked out OK, but it was still a bad play.

 

[Mad Cow]

I thought lawyers should be good at reading people. How could Kass not see Tasha taking Sarah's side as anything other than pacifying her? It was terrible. It is like she has never dealt with another person ever in any kind of confrontation. Her entire hissy fit was based on her inability to read a situation. It was painful. Tell me she is getting blown up on Twitter please.

 

[Timmay]

It was a great tribal. I too thought that LJ giving up his idol to protect Tony was kind of a dumb move. You knew that the other 6 were saying the other one, as in other one besides Tony. That means it wasn't going to be Tony.

I never did like Sarah, and am glad she got voted out.

Woo doing his ninja moves in the previews look hilarious. Looks like the idol will be coming back into play.

Jefra looked really good in last nights episode, I don't know if that was because Alexis wasn't around. Morgan always does look good, but I wish she had a different bathing suit top.

I agree on Sarah, it never bodes well to be the "swing" vote. Everyone that they put in that position on the show that talks about the power they have either leaves during that vote or soon after. That is an edit to keep your eye on, because that really seems to foreshadow doom.

That said, you are completely wrong on Kass. If she had read her right, she would have voted with her alliance. They edited it to show Sarah talking to Tony, but they also showed her as the leader of the 6 in deciding who to vote for at tribal. Kass read nothing right, but still thought she did a good job. Mad Cow said it perfectly above, Kass couldn't even see that Tasha was just trying to relax Sarah and Kass being the ####### that she is couldn't even step back and realize that having Sarah vote with your 5 was more important than anything else at that point. Sarah has no allies within your 6, so she will be easy to get rid of when you want to, but now, Kass is sitting in a 6 where she has no friends and has 4 others who want her off.

 

[Sarnoff]

Doesn't appear that anyone on Kass' alliance understands the social game

Including Kass. How many times has someone asked her who she wants to vote out and she replied, "You"? If she'd just stop telling people to their faces she has it in for them, all this BS wouldn't be necessary.

Yep. Top 5 worst moves ever.

Probably my top 1 ever. Being blindsided and/or leaving with an II is bad, but at least those people thought they weren't going home and it wasn't like they didn't use the II the last time they had the chance to use it. Even Colby with Tina was a $1M blunder, but he still thought he would win and he should have. I would put this move on that level. She went from having an actual chance, having no target and being in the power 3 in the power 6. Heck, she could even use her blunders about wanting J-Tia off and then siding with her getting rid of strong players that weakened her tribe (e.g. they would have beaten brawn in the basketball challenge with Garrett instead of J-Tia) as a mention of how she was in control of those 3 and chose to bring Spencer on board. It would actually be true that she was the one who kept Tasha and Spencer in the game. Colby still had a shot even with his blunder. Now, she literally has no shot after having a decent one.

I am pretty sure I posted a few weeks ago that the brain tribe was in control and they were until she pulled a Hunt for Red October and torpedoed her own sub. The only thing missing was Spencer in a Russian accent saying "You arrogant ###. You've killed *us*!"

 

[Baloney Sandwich]

Why was Woo allowed to wear shoes for the Immunity Challenge while everyone else was barefoot?

 

[John Bender]

What compounds the stupidity is how pissed a good portion of the jury will be even if she made it that far. She could have pissed off far fewer people by sticking with her Alliance. Awful awful move.

And I can see her being brought to the final 3 now by Tony and Trish (or just about anybody) just because they know she can't win.

Not sure how a brain can be that dumb.

 

[Sarnoff]

Why was Woo allowed to wear shoes for the Immunity Challenge while everyone else was barefoot?

I think everyone else had the option, but Woo was the only one who packed 5-toe aqua socks. Everyone else opted for bare feet instead of slippery tennis shoes.

Agree Kass has the EQ of a 10 year old. And she goofed up.

But she was reacting to what Sarah was saying and doing. Reacting badly, but not without some logic.

Understood, the problem was her logic was faulty and based on completely misreading the situation. Tasha played it perfectly with Sarah, but I don't think Spencer/Tasha had any clue how badly Kass would play it. You can tell from the tweets that they were completely blindsided. The rest of Kass' 5 thought they were golden, flushed two idols until they saw the last vote.

Going from a great position of power being 1 of 3 inside of 6 with 3 other splintered folks against a group of 4 with no more IIs and having NO target on her back at all to being #6 of 6 with a huge target on her back and minus 5 in the jury has to be one of the most epic worst moves ever.

Yep. Top 5 worst moves ever.

Probably my top 1 ever. Being blindsided and/or leaving with an II is bad, but at least those people thought they weren't going home and it wasn't like they didn't use the II the last time they had the chance to use it. Even Colby with Tina was a $1M blunder, but he still thought he would win and he should have. I would put this move on that level. She went from having an actual chance, having no target and being in the power 3 in the power 6. Heck, she could even use her blunders about wanting J-Tia off and then siding with her getting rid of strong players that weakened her tribe (e.g. they would have beaten brawn in the basketball challenge with Garrett instead of J-Tia) as a mention of how she was in control of those 3 and chose to bring Spencer on board. It would actually be true that she was the one who kept Tasha and Spencer in the game. Colby still had a shot even with his blunder. Now, she literally has no shot after having a decent one.

I am pretty sure I posted a few weeks ago that the brain tribe was in control and they were until she pulled a Hunt for Red October and torpedoed her own sub. The only thing missing was Spencer in a Russian accent saying "You arrogant ###. You've killed *us*!"

I can't go top 1. Erik giving up his individual immunity to Natalie is my #1.

Might be #3 for me. Tyson voting for Parv is still #2.

That was a crazy tribal. If Kass wouldn't have been a doosh they could have weakened the other tribe as well as flushed two idols. It would have been epic. I hate that KJ felt obligated to give his idol to Tony, but he would have been trashed later if he didn't and they found out he had one.

People are blaming Kass, and for good reason... but Sarah messed things up by arguing against the vote for Jefra. Kass and Spencer were smart in thinking KJ and Tony had idols, so why not get rid of Jefra or Trish first and try to flush one out in the process? I think both Kass and Sarah screwed up.

I feel bad for Spencer. Dude has survived a terrible tribe and everytime it appears he is in good shape, wham, rug is pulled out from under him. I'm pulling for Spencer now. And Morgan has glorious puppies.

I think that is the biggest part of the tribal. Her alliance got everything they could ever want. Both idols flushed out and they go up 6-4.

I can see your points and along with Colby bringing Tina and the massive guy going home with two idols as well. All were dumb mistakes, but in all cases it was a single move that got them blindsided so to speak. In Kass' case, this was someone who had NO target on her back and ruined what was the BEST tribal result for an alliance ever. Think about it, a 6-5 advantage that would have been 6-4 and you flushed both HII idols. That has to have been the best ever result after the merge and she bailed on that and not only painted the biggest target on her back, she also virtually guaranteed that she can't win the $1M since she has basically lost 4 of 7 or 5 of 9 jury votes (can't recall if Jeff said Sarah was on the jury).

I think the single mistake where they thought they were making the right call and got blindsided pales IMHO to a move that literally took someone from a great shot at $1M to no shot.

The look on everyone's faces when "JEFRA" was the first vote was great. So sunk. Rivaled that one tribal council with the "three horsemen" or whatever it was. Will have to look for it on youtube.
