PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"S17 Gufu Award: Week 8" |
Woo-Hoo! I finally made it back to the forums! What a week!Da Roolz: The Gufu Award is for recognizing the dangdumbest game moves in Survivor. Each week you have a designated number of votes you may award for Contestant Gufus! Should you notice any gufus of dangdumbness for noncontestant stuff, these are Production Gufus, a separate category with its very own designated number of votes you may award. Should you wish to exceed your allotted votes, these are Honorary Gufus. Anyway, this week let's make it four (4) Contestant and two (2) Production. I'll start! Contestant #1: Randy. Whether he's racist or how racist he is I really don't know, but for coming out and even appearing to be the most racist player ever he deserves an award for a dangdumb definite loser strategy. Gawd, even if Crystal had been booted she would have just gone over to the jury. "If all machines were to be annihilated at one moment, so that not a knife nor lever nor rag of clothing nor anything whatsoever were left to man but his bare body alone that he was born with, and if all knowledge of mechanical laws were taken from him so that he could make no more machines, and all machine-made food destroyed so that the race of man should be left as it were naked upon a desert island, we should become extinct in six weeks." (Samuel Butler, "Erewhon")

1. "RE: S17 Gufu Award: Week 8" |
Mine:
Contestant 1 - Sugar. If you are crying when you make your vote, do you think maybe it is the wrong vote? She should be voting out the people who know about her HII.Contestant 2 - Randy. STFU. There are some crazies on the show this season. They make Matthew from the Amazon look normal. Randy might be the leader. Production 1 - fire for immunity is a great idea, but make it a bit more interesting. Make them run for supplies at the least. Having it all right there was not a good challenge. Procuction 2 - Usually I learn something from the village reward. I thought this one was done very poorly. Your turn.

Seriously,,,, why didn't Sugar tell Kenny she'd vote with them IF they voted Randy instead of Charlie. She really wanted Randy gone, so?
Gosh, seems she has a ring thru her nose just letting herself be pulled around.

well...I'm probably just as naive as Sugar but I have high hopes that she really knows exactly what she is doing & is playing dumb to both tribemates & camera crew alike. She acts the same with everyone...like she totally believes whatever they are saying. At least what she said at the last tribal council is true - she doesn't backstab & insult people behind their backs, so she has few potential enemies on the jury.

Actually, I have been wondering if she has been playing some brilliant dumb blonde strategy (or whatever it might deserve to be called). I just don't know how to assess her game as yet, if she has game.

13. "Notes from the Production meeting" |
MB: Dang it, I want suspense! I want excitement! I want something, anything that will make these people (and I use the term loosely) seem like they can accomplish SOMETHING. And I want it now!Production Minion: We could do a mudpit challenge. You know, let the girls roll around in the mud for awhile. We might even get blurs! MB: Are you out of your mind?! Do you really want to see Bob and Susie covered in mud or wrapped around each other? What if THEY were the ones we had to blur? We'd get calls! We'd get a full blown, red alert massive viewer vomit! We'd ... wait ... hummm. Nah, to risky. We want to get renewed damn it. Next! Ra: We could always let them play with the crocodiles. Have them play "jump the croc" with a pond of trained crocs we starved for a week. Kinda like my "jump the piranha" idea during Survivor Amazon. Jeff: Ya know, I always liked that idea, and crocs would be far more gory. I could get another Emmy! MB: Probst, you're not helping. Bunny: Wait, I think it might work. What if we make them jump the crocs while tethered together? MB: Bunny, don't encourage him. Minion: We could "arrange" it so Crystal and Randy are tied together... Ra: There you go. Not only would 'Bun and I get our Emmy, we'd get fan mail. Minion: Not to mention the thank you notes. Bunny: Sigh. We need that Emmy for our mantle. Jeff: You mean like mine? MB: Probst, you're not helping. Minion: How about a fire challenge? *crickets* Jeff: Are you out of your mind? I will NOT stand around for three days trying to come up with witty repartee explaining what's going on. Can you imagine three days of "Kenny's playing with his wood," or, "Crystal can't light the match?!" Ra: Try wasting all that film. Not to mention fighting the urge to send a big rainstorm their way, just to drown them all in a flash flood. Bunny: I love it when you go all wrath of Sungod. MB: Bunny, you're not helping. However, I think a fire challenge is a decent idea. I mean, maybe this would be the one challenge Crystal could win. Ra: Who knows, maybe she'd use Randy for kindling. Minion & Jeff: Oh, now there's an idea! MB: Ok, so we do another fire challenge, and we give them everything they need right at their fingertips, and put the string down real low so it won't take that long to burn through. That way, Probst isn't tempted to drink himself through the challenge, and Ra isn't tempted to do whatever it is Sungods do. Ra: I still think Jump the croc would be more exciting. MB: Look, Ra. We already played jump the shark with Survivor A$$. Just have them build the damned fire!

Contestant Gufu #1: Let's see...Alicia and Kimmi. John and Boston Rob. Ted and Ghandia. Twila and Eliza. Judd and Margaret. Rocky and Dreamz. Ozzy and Jason. What do all these rivalries have in common? No one won the game from these groups, and personal squabbling seemed to be part of the downfall for many of these people. Randy and Crystal can now write their reservations for the jury box. (For you sticklers, Sandra had a pretty intense rivalry with Fairplay, but the Dead Grandma Ploy threw off the equation there. I'm also not factoring in fictional seasons with this rivalry rule, which holds true in my timeline but not Estee's.)Contestant Gufu #2: For the last time, Charlie, Marcus doesn't swing that way. Contestant Gufu #3: You meant to tell me that you clods actually let Susie and Sugar dominate the challenge? Contestant Gufu #4: You say Fang, I say Fahng, most people say "Shut the hell up and enjoy the reward win already." Production Gufu #1: Jeff, who the hell did you think that vote was for? Brian Heidik's wife? Production Gufu #2: Someone needs to teach them a little of the native language before the season so we don't have stupid merged tribe names every time. "Nobag?" That sounds like a character on an Adult Swim cartoon. This from the same line of goof-offs that thought "Dabu," "Bula Bula," and "Aitutonga" were good merged tribe names. I'll grant "Gitanos" and "Hae Da Fung," but those were only possible because a portion of the world speaks Spanish and/or Chinese. For the vast majority of seasons in which no one speaks the language, teach them some already.

"Nobag?" Agreed it really kills the t-shirt market.

Contestant #1: Randy. Dude, do you really think your personal vendetta against Crystal is going to win you votes from the jury? If you were working quietly to get her out, they would think you a genius. Schoolyard immature sniping is NOT the way to outwit and outplay.Contestant #2: Crystal. Your "in your face" tactics are going to find you sitting on the jury - right next to Randy. Instead of calling Randy out at TC, you should have been sneaky and used yours and Kenny's influence to vote him out. His reaction would have made the episode. Contestant #3: Sugar. YOU? Are the most idiotic player in the game. Instead of tossing away your vote on Charlie, why the devil didn't you get rid of Randy, who clearly irritates you, or one of the others who know you have the II? A tribe full of dimwits who are in the dark gives you a clear chance to thwart their vote against you. Production: If you are going to do the gratuitous "hired native extra" reward, could you please A) make sure central casting doesn't hire people who have no idea of the tribal culture, and B) make sure costuming actually researches native costume?
