Lisapooh 12664 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 09-25-01, 02:09 PM (EST) "Who doesn't fit in?" Ok - with what little stuff we know about the tribes and their members, I tried to come up with who I think might immediately brush people the wrong way or not fit in with their tribemates as possible early dismissals. This is a dicey proposition at best because we know so little about them, but I'd rather do this than work so here we go. Samburu (I think that's the name) My immediate impression is that Brandon would not have many allies. As a gay makeup artist, I kind of think Frank (the NRA guy) and Silas (the bartender) might not take too well to Brandon. He doesn't appear to be particularly strong either (maybe he's really athletic?) Anyway - he seems a logical misfit with this particular tribe. If Frank is particularly outspoken or gruff - he could be one also. Linda and Teresa seem to both be fit, bright women in the same age group - my guess would be they will either really get along or both try to assume the motherly role. Whoever loses that battle would be in trouble early on too. Boran Well even though she appears remarkably fit, I think the older Kim could be an early ouster. Diane also seems a likely outcast. She's got that white trash look about her (takes one to know one...lol). Clarence and Ethan have athletisicm on their side - Kel's early dismissal probably taught them something so they should be ok at first. Lex is still remarkably hot so I am picking him to stay for awhile. After reading their profiles/biographies - my sight unseen favorites are Linda, Lex, Ethan, Diane and Jessie. Personally, I think Jessie is probably the most beautiful contestant they've ever had.   Top

Lisapooh -- Hi, NightScribe here -- I wouldn't count Mamma Kim out too soon. Something tells me she's strong, both mentally and physically. Remember, the early bootees from last season were folks who didn't play well with others. I sense something special about Mamma Kim, and am going out on a limb to say I think she'll be a formidable player. You could be right about Brandon, although, it is altogether possible that the women will ally with him. He's a cute non-threatening make-up artist, so he may fit in with them should the women choose to ally with each other. Look for the Boran tribe to be far more interesting than the Samburu. NS Sometimes I feel like a nut, sometimes I don't.   Top

Lisapooh 12664 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 09-25-01, 02:42 PM (EST) 2. "RE: Who doesn't fit in?" Hey NightScribe - glad to have you with us! I hope you're right about MammaKim - she lasts long enough to get a nickname anyway! She does look interesting. She and Diane were the only ones who jumped out at me from Boran. Tom did too but I have that big weight loss rumor stuck in my head regarding him. And then there's the Clarence is hospitalized thing. I was thinking Boran looked like the better tribe too - just a cool mix of personalities...at least at first glance. I am so ready for Oct. 11! Get your spoiling cap on - it's gonna be a bumpy ride.   Top

Let's see... this is such pure speculation that I'm sure I'll be embarassed in hindsight, but I'm also looking to procrastinate, so here goes: Generally, the first few dismissals last season were based on who didn't fit in personality-wise. Using physicality to predict was hit-and-miss at best. Samburu... Frank could be the Mike-type leader or he could be, well, too hard line and too driving and tossed early (See Nick in UK Survivor). Brandon doesn't seem particularly physically adept. He also seems like a tribal mismatch if Frank isn't. Teresa and Linda seem likely to bond, but I wonder about how mentally tough they are. Boran... Diane seems like a misfit... older, not in the best of shape, etc. For some reason I think Jessie and Kelly aren't going to get along. I agree with NS on KimJ... she looks like a very astute, kind personality player who is in much better shape than previous old contestants. Tina 2. I don't see anyone who looks likely to be an Amber this season, which makes me happy.   Top

Krautboy 2750 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Howard Stern Show Guest" 09-25-01, 06:46 PM (EST) 4. "Authority Figures..." "Authority figures" did not seem to fit in well last season and were amoung the first to go. Who were the "authority figures from last year? Deb: prison guard, Kel: military officer, Maralyn: retired police detective. Who are the "authority figures" this season? Jessie: deputy sheriff, Kim Johnson: retired teacher. While I will agree that Jessie is attractive she may be too pushy or controlling, teachers also like to have control, so same goes for Kim. I think the early game of Survivor favors those who look, listen, and compromise. Those who try to take charge too early get the boot. I hope Jessie and Kim learned from SurvivorII. Krautboy   Top

Remember last season when Debb(the authority figure) took charge and tried to build a fire? Well here's a picture of Kim Johnson, this season's authority figure, doing the same thing...

Mitrelleum 257 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Network TV Show Guest Star" 09-28-01, 05:57 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Remember Debb?" I'm sure if any of these people watched the show this spring (whereas a handful of them listed Survivor as their favorite show) they would surely try not to be a "Debb" this year. I mean, most of the cast of S2 probably toned it down asbestos they could. My gut instinct tells me that a young female will be the first to go and/or the second. Diane is an iffy one. She seems to stick out like a sore thumb, but she's a potential Susan Hawk. I hope you like my asbestos.   Top

managerr 1959 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Herbal Healing Drugs Endorser" 10-02-01, 07:26 PM (EST) 7. "Brandon/Silas/Frank" Actually I think the men might tend to keep Brandon around because he's non-threatening. MB wants the two stronger men in the trible to battle it out for the alpha male role. We saw it with BB and Joel and Colby and Kel. (Although it wasn't played much in the episodes, Kel noted that Colby always seemed to be turned off by Kel's offer to bond with him.) I saw we are more likely to see tension with Silas and Frank. The outcasts are scheduled to get voted out eventually, but it's the physically weak links and tribe members that fail to take a leadership role that get booted first.   Top
