Aruba 3313 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-13-23, 06:12 PM (EST) "S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" How about we change “Tribal Council” to “Tribal Sanctuary” since more players are safe than at risk. Geezo Peezo! But before I get to this episode, I’ll address the post on last week’s Ep. 6 thread with Carolyn’s interview transcript. First off, I’m surprised an interview with someone still in the game has surfaced already. Maybe this means players do not know yet the official winner and we’re going back to tallying the votes live at a studio audience Reunion Show as was done pre-COVID. Anyway, the biggest takeaway from reading Carolyn’s interview is she is a superfan of the show...which is the case with pretty much all the players casted now. I was aware of her prior addiction and current sobriety. Even though I’m in this Forum, I’ll take off my basher’s hat (not the one I’d eat if the improbable occurs) and say, props to her for no longer being an addict. Not just her, but also for the benefit of her son she’s currently raising. Back to the game of Survivor (with my basher hat back on,) not only does she flat out SUCK in challenges, but her interpersonal skills are also poor. Hey, last season Jesse was also not good in challenges, but made up for it with excellent interpersonal relationships among the players. Carolyn, even by her own admission, is lacking in that discipline which is the main reason I do NOT foresee her as the S44 Sole Survivor. In layman’s terms, whether it’s a residual effect of her prior addiction or just her MO, she’s NOT playing with a full deck. She mentions Maryanne from S42, yet ironically, the one player this season who could draw inspiration from how S42 ended should be Yam-Yam, not Carolyn. Sorry, but I thought (and still think) that red “X” fake idol ordeal was just plain dumb. The mere fact it never amounted to anything was poetic justice. I did get a kick when she brought up her “zits.” Did that play into my “Proactive” comment from the Ep. 5 analysis or what? LOL. The only aspect I did learn about Carolyn from the transcript is when she mentioned her “partner” among those she is watching the season with. I’ll presume she now prefers women over men. If that presumption is correct, thinking back to NuTika (Yam-Yam, Carolyn, Josh, and Sarah) Sarah never stood a chance. Talk about being a victim of circumstance. OK, BACK TO EP. 7... Yam-Yam is your quintessential “class clown,” and has played that role so well, he’s actually endeared by those who want to send him home. Most kids are class clowns because they’re extroverts by nature and don’t know how to fit in but desperately want to do so. Given some of his struggles growing up he shared previously, it apparently served him well in his “normal life.” And now he’s getting a lot of mileage with it on Survivor. Would any episode of S44 be complete without a scene featuring the sappy, silly “dork magnets???” I’m so done with that. With the sharing of information, it was inevitable the fake idol from all the cages would be discussed. Brandon helped turn the light bulb on in Matt’s head that his idol could be fake, and Danny’s could have the real one. Matt smartly puts a target on Danny. Danny, also thanks to shared information, knows Lauren has two votes. He is now targeting Lauren to remove the advantage from the game. Day 14 brings on the challenge. Once again, it’s two teams with Carson drawing the gray rock. When the challenge was explained, Carson had to pick a team. The winner for each team wins immunity AND the overall winner earns immunity FOR THE TEAM as well as a reward feast. I suppose I understand the format of an “individual” challenge in team format to prevent the cowardly approach of losing a challenge on purpose to anti-Darwin a player. But the flip side of creating a scenario where you have MORE players immune than at risk this early post merge pretty much sucks. Analyzing the challenge before it began, my focus was not so much on balancing the ball as on the balance beam itself. Given that focus, I was fairly confident a female would win. My early money was on Heidi because of her small stature and lower center of gravity. My runner-up pick was Frannie. Yes, I know Lauren and Jaime are smaller, but both have also proven to friggin’ SUCK in challenges. Carson probably had that same mindset making it a no-brainer to choose the Orange Team with BOTH Heidi and Frannie. HMMM, I wonder who was going to be the first inept loser to bow out??? * snort * Well, if you blinked, you missed it. Who else but…Carolyn. I was surprised Heidi went out quicker than anticipated, but even more surprised Brandon was able to maintain his balance for as long as he did. Although, when he had to walk to the final stage on the thinnest portion of the beam it resulted in a Frannie victory. It was a win for EVERYONE on the Orange Team thanks to Frannie. I’ll give props to Carson because he had to choose. But the dumba$$ sh!t luck award goes to...who else but, Carolyn...who last week benefitted from Carson’s performance and now this week benefitted from Frannie’s efforts. She’s also been well fed for the past THREE episodes...no credit to her. To reiterate Danny’s quote from last week that part of Survivor is “luck,” it certainly applies in a BIG way for Carolyn thus far. Three of the five on the loser team (Brandon, Lauren, and Jaime) are formers Ratus, forcing the one Soka (Matt) and the one Tika (Yam-Yam) to go into a furious scrambling mode. With Brandon earning individual immunity, only four of the 11 are vulnerable at TC. After the Orange Team finished partaking in PBJ sandwiches and potato chips, they all went on a wild scavenger hunt to find the key to open up a cage for an “advantage,” Heidi, who found the right key, got the “advantage” to tell one of the players who vote at TC who they must vote out since only the five on the losing team votes and the winning team are simply spectators. We’ve had non-advantageous “advantages” on Survivor, but this one really takes the cake. First grade math dictates the three Ratus with Lauren’s extra vote will determine who becomes the first juror regardless how Heidi uses her “advantage.” Especially when Jeff clarified only ONE of Lauren’s votes gets determined by the advantage. What a freaking joke! At TC, sure enough, the Ratu Three formed a voting block causing Matt and Yam-Yam to fight for their Survivor lives. I’m not sure what the purpose was of that papayas Matt was holding??? Maybe “Felicia” gave it to him? * snort * Boy oh boy, this season is so far in the hopper. Anyway, Heidi ended up using her useless “advantage” for Lauren to use one of her votes on Yam-Yam resulting in a 3-2 vote to boot Matt instead of 4-1. Had she used her advantage for someone to cast a vote for either Lauren or Jaime the vote would be 3-1-1 with a whole lotta friction back at camp between Heidi and whomever she targeted. If the “advantage” was used to place a vote on Matt, she would have severed any chance of working with Frannie going forward. So, in the end, Matt is officially the first member of the Jury. Of course, this means we’ll have to watch Frannie transform into a Squonk and deal with a tearful wreck for at least one episode over some dude who she didn’t know even existed until only two weeks ago. Hey, a small price to pay to get that silly dork-mance out of the way. Next Time on Survivor A sick player (I think Carson) is crawling into the woods probably to yak. A pathetically inept player (I know is Carolyn) is stuck surrounded by rope in a challenge. Much like how Production had to hold her hand and guide her through a basic confessional, we hear Jeff providing similar assistance barking instructions for her. Hey Jeff...STFU! Let her struggle to further cement her spot in the Finals. We listen to Danny’s intention to target the Ratu tribe.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" LAST EDITED ON 04-16-23 AT 01:54 AM (EST) You are often so off-course that I'll have to quote you just to remember where you are! >How about we change “Tribal Council” >to “Tribal Sanctuary” since more >players are safe than at >risk. Geezo Peezo! On this, you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. This idea of team challenges in the individual part of the game goes against the very nature of the game. However, my objection differs from yours and we'll get to that soon. But before >I get to this episode, >I’ll address the post on >last week’s Ep. 6 thread >with Carolyn’s interview transcript.

She has interpersonal skills but these bozos don't give her a chance. I mean, if I keep knocking at your door but you never answer so how can we be friends?

Talk about being a >victim of circumstance. Your analysis sounds like a non-sequitur: Why would Carolyn prefering women (I didn't get that from the article but let's go with it.) meant the end for Sarah. Wouldn't it have given her a new potential ally? >OK, BACK TO EP. 7... Finally but then again, I can be long winded myself! >Yam-Yam is your quintessential “class clown,” >and has played that role >so well, he’s actually endeared >by those who want to >send him home.

There is nothing cowardly about losing a challenge on purpose when a tribe swap has given you majority in the new tribe. In fact, it is the smart thing to do to get rid of an enemy and protect an ally as Ethan realized back in season 3. It took time, but Production realized that and that's why we see less of them than we used to. Here, in this case, the purpose was to double the immunities and it served your «challenge beast» well. If it had been an individual challenge Brandon would have been vulnerable and maybe voted out instead of having ALL the power. ­>only four of the >11 are vulnerable at TC. Yes, RIDICULOUS >We’ve had non-advantageous “advantages” on Survivor, >but this one really takes >the cake. First grade math >dictates the three Ratus with >Lauren’s extra vote will determine >who becomes the first juror >regardless how Heidi uses her >“advantage.” Especially when Jeff clarified >only ONE of Lauren’s votes >gets determined by the advantage. >What a freaking joke! I wrote about it in the play-by-play thread we have running during the episode but I nuanced it: Strange that Heidi has to TELL someone to write a name, Why doesn't she steal the vote instead? Doesn't Heidi realize that she doesn't control anything unless she votes against Lauren or Jaime? She'd waste her advantage is she tells someone to vote for Matt or Yam Yam especially if she turns one against the other. In the end Lauren only voted once. She knew that Matt's goose was cooked even without her vote. 3 - 2 or 4 - 1: No difference. Do you see why Heidi wasted her advantage? If Heidi had told Jaime to vote against Lauren then Matt and Yam-Yam could have done the same and since Brandon had been thinking about it, he could have changed his vote to Lauren. Lauren could have been voted out 4 - 2. AT THE VERY LEAST, MY PROPOSED MOVE WOULD HAVE FORCED LAUREN TO USE HER SECOND VOTE TO SAVE HERSELF. >Of course, this means we’ll have >to watch Frannie transform into >a Squonk and deal with >a tearful wreck for at >least one episode over some >dude who she didn’t know >even existed until only two >weeks ago. With your mention of Squonk, I have to ask if you are a Genesis fan? I think Frannie will get over it quickly and will show nothing except maybe when he enters TC.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Aruba 3313 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-16-23, 04:01 PM (EST) 2. "RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" How would an interview with Carolyn change what we’ve all seen and heard from her for seven episodes? She’s spot on with her assessment of “what you see is what you get…” and what we have is a woman with some psychological and social issues. Shame on Production for casting players like her for “entertainment” purposes. We observe these issues a few minutes every week. Imagine having to live with that for 24/7??? OF COURSE, she will not be taken seriously. Even when she does offer something of merit, it will inevitably get “lost in the sauce.” This is far from the only time Production intentionally casts a player who they knew would be a polarizing figure. Remember wackadoodle Phillip from S22? He made it all the way to FTC as one of the Finalists! Goats don’t come more appetizing than Phillip...or Carolyn. Like DUH, naturally she’ll advance deeper in the game than most. LOL Whereas Danny and Brandon focused more on each other, I disagree that initially they treated Carolyn as if “she was not there.” Early on when they began eating, Danny brought Carolyn into the fold by specifically asking her who SHE would want to see targeted at merge? Carolyn was tight-lipped and coy with Danny refusing to provide a definite answer. Yes, it was Carolyn’s prerogative to not be in a “sharing mood” at that moment, so Danny turned his attention to Brandon and the “bromance” was formed. Brandon did not ignore her either. Although I’ll give him high points for honesty it was not bright on his part to truthfully address Carolyn personally and crystalize precisely why players like Carolyn advance because she “has NOT proven herself in challenges.” I guess I’m aging myself here, but I hardly regard age 35 as “old” despite CBS/Production’s pathetic and continued guilt of age discrimination when it comes to casting. But to your point, I was surprised to read in her bio that she is 35. She could come off as pushing 50, especially if you remove the mascara and plastic boobies. This could also be a residual effect of her former addiction. Heck, when entertainer Willie Nelson was around that same age, he looked more like 70! LMAO. An overwhelming number of players casted for Survivor are nothing short of bone fide morons, therefore it does not surprise me for even a nanosecond some birdbrain would fall for that dumb red “X” nonsense. So YES, I still regard it as “dumb” matched by the overall lack of intelligence when casting as a result of Production’s ineptness. Putting emphasis on the term “partner,” I obviously was not referencing her preference toward woman socially; it was pertaining to her preference sexually. That observation, joined with Yam-Yam and Josh as part of the LGBTQ+++ community, clearly put Sarah on the out when one of the four HAD to be booted from NuTika. You apparently need to go back and read ALL my assessments this season before you make the inaccurate claim that I “don’t bash Yam-Yam.” His lack of intelligence has been the source of a fair share of appropriate Yam-Yam bashing in my posts. But here’s the rub on Yam-Yam...natural scatterbrains like him (or Maryanne S42) can get away with dumb nonsensical jibber-jabber most other people cannot. Another point on Yam-Yam...not only has he acknowledged his sheer stupidity, after clowning and joking about it (much to the endearment of the others,) he is making an effort to try not to replicate his prior dumbness going forward. This could pay dividends for him as we move to the second half of the season. No need to talk anymore about the silly dork magnets because it mercifully came to an end in the game. Despite its sappiness, the skin on my nose has always been intact; but now I no longer need any insulin. * snort * First off, allow me to say, we have NO “challenge beasts” this season, unless future challenges will focus on “damn friggin’ puzzles,” then you might have to consider Carson. I guess what I’m saying is there’s no Tom Westmans, Terry Deitzs, Natalie Andersons, or Joe Anglims among this cast, so the Anti-Darwin Syndrome has been minimized greatly this season. You are correct in saying by having “individual” challenges in a team format it also minimizes chickensh!ts ganging up on a Joe Anglim type of player. Had the challenge been a true individual IC, Brandon certainly would have been as risk merely by perception. Whereas I’m OK with reducing that dastardly approach, I still think it is utterly ridiculous (an item we both agree) to have a situation where seven of the 11 are immune at this stage of the game. There lies the “double-edged sword” dilemma. Of course, better casting could eliminate this band-aid approach “double-edged sword” to address the ADS. NO, I do not see how Heidi “wasted” her “advantage,” because YOU CAN’T WASTE WHAT YOU DON’T HAVE. She did NOT have an advantage. Despite your wild spinning, there was absolutely, positively nothing she could have done to change the outcome of that vote. If I was her, I would have tossed the non-advantage into the fire (like what was done with IIs at TCs in previous seasons) and not used it at all. Making someone vote Lauren or Jaime who would NOT have been booted would only put a target on Heidi’s back when they return to camp. Yam-Yam has proven to let bygones be bygones and NOT foster any vengeful resentment toward those who wrote down his name making Yam-Yam the safest name to target if the “advantage” was going to be used. Believe it or not, I was told about the legend of the Squonk BEFORE I heard Genesis recorded a song about it. I attended college in Pennsylvania, and being born and raised in New Jersey, I told the out-of-staters about the “Tasmanian Devil,” who according to legend, resides in the Pine Barons section of NJ. Those in Pennsylvania said they had a legend of their own called the “Squonk” who resides in the forests of Pennsylvania. After the legend was explained, I was told that Genesis even recorded a song about it. When I learned about how it would cry excessively to turn itself into a puddle of water, my roommate and I began referring to the melodramatic drama queen coeds on campus who would turn on the waterworks and used crocodile tears to garnish sympathy as “Squonks.” LOL. Fast forward to 21st Century Reality TV, and boy oh boy does it EVER apply. In season S44, embellishment queen Frannie fits the bill. I’m leaning toward agreeing with you that any obnoxious embellishment over Matt will probably be contained for just Ep. 8. I’m 99% sure we’ll have a “Squonk” sighting to open the episode when she gives a tearful post-TC confessional. Since Matt will be the only juror mentioned at TC, we’re certain to have an overreaction then as well.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

michel2 4134 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Jerry Springer Show Guest" 04-16-23, 09:45 PM (EST) 3. "RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" Aruba wrote: «An overwhelming number of players casted for Survivor are nothing short of bone fide morons» You do realize that Survivor simply casts ordinary people. Personally, I find that casting is the STRONGEST department of this show next to camera directions. PRODUCTION, Probst and EDITING in that order of ineptitude are the main culprits. It's production that comes off with these lame twists. Now if you think the majority of North Americans are morons then we should have a discussion about the education system rather than Survivor!! Yes, I know that you've also bashed Yam-Yam but is it because I don't care for him and do not defend him that you seem to forgive (or is it forget?) him? If I had endorsed Yam-Yam I think you'd be merciless. Casting only athletes would probably reduce your venom and your belief in something you call ADS but would it improve the show? With their casting decisions they've manage to last 44 seasons and they've just inspired a local station to start a «Survivor Québec » that was filmed in the Philippines and is very entertaining. Like I said, I applaud Casting. Tell me what would have happened if Heidi had ordered Jaime to vote Lauren and if Yam-Yam and Matt had done the same? At the very least, Lauren votes twice for Matt and Brandon does the same. Result a 3 - 3 tie and Lauren's advantage is gone. How would a revote work? Matt and Lauren wouldn't be allowed to vote but I am ASSUMING that Heidi still controls Jaime's vote. She and Yam Yam vote against Lauren who only has Brandon to save her so LAUREN IS OUT. HEIDI'S ADVANTAGE COULD HAVE BEEN PLAYED RIGHT. I knew that the legend of Squonk came from Pennsylvania and that you didn't live far from there but I thought it was very obscure. I'll just finish that discussion by saying I was a Genesis fan but the Peter Gabriel Genesis. It went downhill fast after he left. The album with Squonk was their first without Gabriel and it sounds like Collins imitating Gabriel.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Aruba 3313 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-17-23, 05:52 PM (EST) 4. "RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" To even suggest most of Production’s debacles are your average everyday “ordinary” individuals is incomprehensible. For me to make the statement that an overwhelming number of players casted for Survivor are morons coupled with my assessment that CBS/Production does a horrible job selecting players who are fair samples of our general population supports my belief that a majority of North Americans are NOT morons. Try to convince any American citizen that Carolyn (from the USA) encompasses your average or ordinary US citizen. LOL! Since intelligence is a subjective trait, let’s take something more quantitative or objective to dispute your belief and harpoon your theory that Production casts an average sample of ordinary people. According to the 2020 US Census (which is conducted every 10 years) over 48% of the US population is OVER 40 YEARS OF AGE. CBS/Production does not come remotely close to half of ANY cast age 40 or over. Proof positive casting is NOT indicative of the average/ordinary. ALL RIIIIISE...CASE DISMISSED!!! It’s really quite sad how you are so falsely fixated that my preference for players are “be all and end all” athletes simply because I have little tolerance for pathetically inept challenge embarrassments. I’ll go on record saying the most despicable and disgusting human being EVER casted was an athlete named John Rocker. How despicable? He was quoted in Sports Illustrated which was also very easy to find on the internet that he would never play for the Mets or the Yankees because he wouldn’t want to ride the subway sitting next to some “queer with aids.” He went on to say, “how the hell did we get so many foreigners in our country.” Here’s a REAL doozy...”if there were no gun laws during Nazi Germany, I blame the Jews for ALLOWING the Holocaust to happen.” I will NOT dismiss this as a one-time oversight. There is NO possible way Production/Casting could NOT have known about those published statements, yet STILL he was allowed to walk onto the set of Survivor. Proof positive Production purposely casts UNORDINARY and NON-AVERAGE individuals. Oh yeah, that’s the “STRONGEST department” hard at work. * snort * You’ve posted some far-fetched (yet entertaining) spin-a-ramas in your time, but Heidi’ non-advantageous “advantage” pretty much takes the cake. Yam-Yam could have given a rat’s behind whether Matt or Lauren...or anyone else for that matter went home AS LONG AS IT WASN’T HIM. He went into TC voting Matt along with Brandon, Lauren and Jaime giving Matt a majority FOUR votes. If Heidi tells Jaime to vote Lauren, why the hell would Yam-Yam CHANGE his vote to create a TIE when he sticks with the plan to write down Matt along with Brandon and Lauren’s two votes; Matt stills leaves with four votes, and Yam-Yam lives to see another day. And, oh by the way, Heidi must now return to camp with BOTH Lauren AND Jaime not happy with her.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" Note so fast: Court can't rest on such a dumbass comment: - Survivor cannot cast senior citizens or minors so your average castaway will always be between 18 and their mid 50s which is not the whole population. The two bias Survivor casting will have is to choose outgoing personalities. No one wants to see the shy morons. They will also lean towards good looking people but that is always the case on TV. And me who thought Rocker was American. Wait! HE IS! To my Canadian ears he is certainly at the top of the mountain of morons but what about your Marjorie Greene and your Kristi Noem, the South Dakota GOVERNOR who is happy to say that her 2-year-old granddaughter has several guns... And what about the masses who still believe in Orange hair. Didn't you hear Yam-Yam say he wanted to find a way to vote against the three? If he heard that Jaime was voting for Lauren that was the unexpected life line. Open your mind to the possibility.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Aruba 3313 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-18-23, 05:12 PM (EST) 6. "RE: S44 Ep. 7 Tribal "Sanctuary"" Dismissed cases can be reopened on appeal. I agree with half of your “appeal.” CBS cannot cast minors for Survivor. Although with seniors (which here in the USA are either age 60, 62 or 65 depending on the organization classifying) CBS WILL NOT cast them due to age discrimination. So, based on your appeal and using the same census results, 51% of the US population are between ages 20-59. Ages 20-39 constitute 51% of the 20-59 age range and ages 40-59 constitute 49% of that same 20-59 age range. 49% is slightly higher than the 48% of the entire population in my prior post, so thanks to your appeal, you have more than solidified my accurate claim that casting is NOT an average/ordinary sample of the population. NOW ALL CAN RISE...CASE DISMISSED! The mere fact you mentioned great-looking appearances as a filtering process for casting contradicts your false claim of Production casting “ordinary” people. It is common knowledge production has used beauty pageants and modeling agencies to recruit players. Now, if you’re going to tell me the average/ordinary American is beauty pageant contestant material or modeling agency clients, then let me tell you I’M definitely living in the wrong part of the world. LOL! As much as I can thankfully say, ignorant blockheads like Rocker are NOT indicative of your average/ordinary individual, sadly more than one do exist in every country. When Frannie impressively won the challenge, first grade math would dictate the THREE Ratus (with Lauren’s extra vote) would determine either Matt or Yam-Yam’s game being over. Had Brandon outlasted Frannie, I would be saying the same about the Orange Team with the THREE Sokas ruling the roost resulting in the lone Ratu (Kane’s) torch being snuffed. Returning to the Soka camp immediately after the challenge, naturally Matt and Yam-Yam would converge in hopes of possibly pulling in a Ratu (or two) to target one of the Ratus instead of either of them...as much as a “Hail Mary” desperation that it was. Yet in the end, the obvious prevailed and I’m steadfast in my assessment that Yam-Yam walked into TC knowing he would be voting with the three Ratu’s to boot Matt. Quite frankly, Matt even knew which is why Matt gave us a tearful “Squonk sighting” even BEFORE the votes were read. All your hypothetical spinology could not realistically alter the obvious and inevitable in my mind. On a side note, you know I LOVE to yank your chain whenever I have an opportunity (plastic lolos are a perfect example) but honestly, my assessments on Yam-Yam are being made regardless how you personally feel about him and not to purposely be contrary. Also, even though NJ and Pennsylvania are neighboring states, I have never heard of Squonks growing up in NJ. It wasn’t until I attended college with the Hemlocks Forest (where the legend originated) less than 100 miles from my college campus, did I learn about the legend. Lastly, although Phil Collins enjoyed a more successful solo career, I too, was more of a Peter Gabriel fan during the early years of Genesis. WOW, we agree on something! Ha-Ha!!   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
