"So what happens now?"
Posted by Starshine on 07-06-07 at 04:09 PM

If we always have 3 men on one team, and 2 on the other then how is the red team going to win? They need Christa, and the other team needs to have Kendra and Laurel, otherwise it is going to be difficult.

Is the game going to change soon? Just one officer would be better next week (bye bye boring Ben)

Hello Starshine. Welcome to these boards. Like Survivor, I'm sure that after a certain number of pirates are set adrift, the show will change from its "team"-orientation to an "individual" competition. It'll be every man for himself eventually. So far, it is very much like Survivor but with a "Pirate" theme. If you are interested in spoilers on this show, I suggest you visit other websites such as truedorktimes.com.

Thanks Scarlett, I'm a fugitive from the TAR boards and have never seen Survivor, so I don't really know how it works.

Thanks for the link, but I found that the last season of TAR was really spoilt for me by the spoilers, so I am avoiding them at the moment.

Wasn't really asking for spoilers, just a conversation on how people felt things will go, particularly as things seem so promising for some of the people,

If they were thinking they could arrange for a non mutiny mutiny.

Louie and JD are on one team with say Laurel, Kendra, and Jupiter

Jay, Azmyth, Ben are on the other team with Christa, and Nessa

Christa and Nessa agree to throw the challenge to make sure a new Captain will be in charge. Louie, JD, and Jupiter are back in power, they black spot all 3 men, and then bam, the balance of power shifts and no more terrible triad.

Very plausible and logical (as usual, KOF). In case they don't do it that way, MB will likely throw in a curveball like "only one officer...and it has to be someone new...so enjoy the TWIST, Azmyth". That would do the trick.

I'm certain that MB will take care of it himself, but if the "merger" or whatever this game has for end game doesn't happen soon, there are other outs. This game is in no way close to Survivor strategically speaking, but there is strategies that can be employed.

I suspect that if the ratings aren't too horrible we can look forward to a second season. My guess is that if there is a second season it will be better than the first. If not then Burnett should retire this concept all together and think his lucky stars that he has Survivor. Usually it takes a second season to make a fair conclusion on whether a show should keep going.

Since this is the first season then I'll give this years pirates a bit of slack. Although I have said in previous threads that it seems casting production has accepted more big talkers than doers. I would like to see the crew members take power by botching up the captain's treasure hunt but I'm not quite confident that they will.

Ben has really hurt himself in this game. He has been officer everytime except once (when Louie ruled) and has been tied with a captain that no one liked. Joe Don purposely distanced his officers from the crew and ticked the crew off. Then Azmyth has been in his only fairyland spouting off fake British accents and silliness to ruin anyone's reputation. Ben's screwed unless he decides to team up with crew and put a dagger in Azmyth's rule. I doubt it though. Even then he is still only buying some time as others have made some connections or at least are comfortable with each other.
