Jeez, the “suspense and drama” of the Crying Game Bonus was really stressful wasn’t it? If I had known about the gross food family visit challenge thing, I would’ve certainly leaned toward a puking related bonus, instead of the sure-thing with Jan. Hell, I think every single one of ‘em cried… even Jiffy shed a tear when he had to tell porn-chick CC to get lost without having seen that bikini top come off (and he’d seen ALL her movies, too). Not that it didn’t stop anybody from getting it WRONG, however! While Echogirl took the -2 points with a gleeful smile, S’chick and S’vist grudgingly took the hit as well. The loss was far greater for S’chick, as her poor week virtually guarantees that she will enter Finale Night in 5th place instead of 3rd.

The weekly winners were Sleeeve, Draco Malfoy and BuckyKatt (5), with Sleeeve and Draco being two of four to get both the challenge picks correct (Belle and Echo, too). Bucky survived a risky “all the Chewys are safe” list. Also scoring well were Cin (4), EJM92 and GeorgiaBelle (3). Hopefully, next week will provide more of a challenge to our 12 remaining AB players, as it is the last chance to move up prior to the Finale.

The weekly dogs were led by EchoGirl (-2) who brilliantly picked Jan only on her safe list, as well as choosing the “correct wrong” answer on the Bonus. Her only slip up was getting +2 points from her challenge answers. Others tasting a bit of the RED were SurvivorChick and Survivorerist (-1), who had Crying Bonus issues as previously mentioned.

The leader board’s notable moves were that Bucky has moved to only one point behind Belle for 3rd place and Cin moved up into a tie for 6th with smrtNsassybnkr at 34. EJM92 (73) still leads, with Sleeeve (67) picking up a little ground. The third place battle is down to 2, but is extremely close-- GeorgiaBelle (49), BuckyKatt (48).

I’m awaiting EchoGirl’s (-64) last prize selection (2 total CDs from my web site). It was well earned this season, as she destroyed all competition and did so quite quickly.

This week’s teams are:
Trust Me: Brian, Clay
Lambs To Slaughter: Helen, Jan, Ted

Inquisition Bonus Point Question #5
This one works a lot like the UTR question of two weeks ago. Here you’re trying to name the Survivor that is first to be grilled by Jiffy at TC.

If you name the first person put on the spot by Jiffy, you get 4 points
The 2nd person to be questioned gets 3 point
The 3rd person to be questioned gets 2 points
The 4th person to be questioned gets 1 points
The 5th person to be questioned gets nothing

67 down, 12 to go

Edited because I realized I was short-changing EchoGirl on her last place prize. It's 2 CDs, not 1. For the record, it's 7 for first, 4 for second and 2 for third.

Good week all around it looks like. We're really getting down to the nitty and the gritty. Hopefully this is the week where someone will be caught by surprise. And not me. I suppose I could pad this post and give more opportunities to grab the secret woid, but that's not my style.

As always, this will probably change before showtime.

The Chamber of Secrets Has Been Opened. Enemies of the Heir... Beware!

in fact those that do expect the tribal...

CARDINAL FANG! Read the charges!

I have a question about how the bonus will be scored.

Jiffy always asks a general question first that someone randomly answers (ie: it isn't asked to them specifically... it's asked to the tribe and someone just speaks up).

Examples: How was seeing your family? Are you happy that you've merged? Was it nice to have the red berets visit your camp?

Then, he asks each Survivor a question individually where he puts them on the spot. (Typically the person that voluntarily answers his opening question does not have to answer the first individual question or two).

Finally, he offers the chance for last remarks from anyone, and then they vote.

My question is: in the opening question (where he doesn't put anyone on the spot)... will the person that responds of their own free will to that question count toward the points, or are you only counting questions where he asks an individual question to just one Survivor?

Thanks!

-sleeeve

Let's make it whoever opens their mouth first. Unless it's one where everybody chimes in at once. I must be able to get a distinct speaking order.

I can just feel the controversy now.

Please - NO CONTROVERSY!! It's gotta be the first sound that comes out. If there's absolutely a tie as two or more people speak simultaneously could you just award first place points to each person? However, that's not gonna happen (just like Houston isn't going to beat anyone by gaining only 47 yards on offense!!).

-Hey, I'm still closer to Echogirl than to EJM92 !!!

-By the time you're finished reading this, you'll have already read it.

I have a feeling we are going to see a few more eliminations this round.

And then the finale where everyone will get skunked except for one.

EJM has had a strangle hold on first place forever it seemslike.

Good luck everyone.

Wow has any been booted from this game since Erin left? Or does everyone have a pact that takes them to the Final Two? Hopefully this dreadfully predictable Survivor gives us a surprise this week.

First some words. Since my little stories seem to generate no bonus points for Mr. Sittem's little game I have decided to be the ultimate sheep and just list words. Maybe I will guess the right one this week?

Here we go: Alliance, pact, confessional, jury, challenge, necklace, reward, jeep, backstabbing, Tribal Council, fire, water, shocked, boring, trust, SpongeBob, Harry Potter, jockstrap, garter belt, scrooge, fruit cake, Santa Claus, chia pet, parade, bowl games, flu, Christmas Tree, kiss, Charlie Brown, Al Gore, Denzel Washington, polyester, sushi, Regis Philbin, Lion Chow, bug.

RC: Lambs to Slaughter

EDIT: Oh Yeah! Clay will speak first at tribal council.

Oh man... I'm really afraid that I might get the boot this week, but with the way that spoiling has turned out for the final episode, if I don't grab the lead now, it's unlikely that I will be able to grab it at the finale.

You never know what might be up my sleeeve...

Ah! A man that is not content with second place.

A bold move that could well make up the 6 point deficit IF he survives.

Good luck, Sleeeve!

'eee' - Risky enough to make me leave him off my ABP-ABG list.

but sleeeve, don't you remember last season? Leads mean nothing going into the finale. It most likely will be the person with the correct boot order for the final 4.

I do however like the way you are going at it this round.
Good luck.
