The funniest line of the season so far.

First Rocky, now Lisi - at least these guys know who has to leave. I was going to be very disappointed if Dreamz got even one vote after that amazing discussion at tribal.

I love me some Yao-Man! He actually USES HIS BRAIN when attempting challenges. When they stepped up with the spears I was immediately surprised that no one was attempting a javelin-style running throw. I mean, DUH. I've never thrown a spear in my life (maybe a carboard wrapping paper tube?) but I still say DUH. Seeing Yao-Man actually take a minute to survey the weaponry and think a bit before attempting it was soooo gratifying.....especially after some of the more manly men showed off some seriously limp-wristed action. :D

Yao-Man rocked at that challenge. I loved when Jeff asked him what he could possibly be looking for and he replied "straightest arrow possible". Yeah, he pretty much owned that challenge.

Lisi- I wouldn't even know where to begin. What a character.

As soon as Mookie and Dreamz are gone, I will be a happy camper.

You know, if you thought Lisi was confusing before, check out this interview done by a reality television news site.

I am so upset that Michelle got the boot. I would have much rather have seen Stacy go. But, the previews for next week look promising, with Dreamz telling everybody that Mookie has the idol. :evil:

At least Yau-Man and Earl are a bit smarter in that aspect.

And, just to see how many people were complaining that all the Moto luxuries disappeared when they returned from Exile Island. Priceless!

Matterhorn Fan 04-13-2007 11:54 AM

I missed parts of it last night--were they given the choice between the two camps? And if so, does anyone think that had they chosen the other camp, that they might have returned to all those luxuries?

Ghoulish Delight 04-13-2007 01:05 PM

No choice given. They were told to head out to exile island, which made them all think they were going to be forced to live there. Instead they just found new buffs and a note to go back to Moto's island. So it turns out making them paddle their asses to exile was misdirection/a way to give the crew time to tear down the shelter.

I loved how they did the challange last night. I hope they continue to work it that way. It is not often something comes along that completely changes the way the game is played. If the tribe will be randomly divided into two groups for immunity challanges and the losing group goes to tribal, it has the effect of severely crippling (if not almost totally eliminating the influence of) alliances.

Indeed, and I did enjoy the twist, but if they keep doing this it will make the game almost completely "random" and take out all the strategy.

Michelle was the most likable person there. Dreamz is messed up in the head and watching him play the mental game is like watching a mentally challenged person try to play chess - painful and embarrassing for all parties. Mookie is an idiot. Alex is sane but allied himself with "the Four Horsemen" and is scheming way too much. Stacy has been a total bitch. Boo has no friends and apparently is not interesting enough to garner camera time. The guy with the accent seems a bit on the clueless side. The remaining black guy is somewhat likeable but no matter who wins this, I will say the same thing - "eh."

Without good people that I want to root for, it's all about watching strategy. When the producers aren't taking away their strategic abilities, the players themselves are making stupid mistakes. End result - I'm going to root for serious starvation. At least that's pretty entertaining.

I disagree. I think it simply changes the strategy necessary to win.

Since Richard Hatch, Survivor has been about the forming of alliances and how well you do it. If this changes - even on just the occasional challange - it completely alters how you have to play the game. No more will it be just to be alligned with the greater number of people, it will be about the ability to manipulate the entire group of people. No longer will the stupid be able to just be loyal to the power brokers and continue on in the game by simply doing what they are told, and no longer will it be enough to be the most dominant in individual challanges. No longer will wenches like Stacy be able to treat other people like dirt because they have the numbers on their side.
