"Order of Votes Read" |
Something's bothered me for a very long time. I don't know if anyone else has noticed this. But I find it disturbing cos I find that it has appeared too many times to be coincidental.Whenever JP reads the votes, notice that the "swing vote" or "deciding vote" is always read last, without fail. And when I mean the "deciding vote", I mean the exact person with the exact handwriting on the vote paper. Some examples S4 Kathy's vote against Sean. We all know it was going to be the swing vote. But when she was voting that time it was edited out, when the votes were read, it had to be the last one read after the votes were tied 2-2. I recognised that because I compared the handwriting. My point here is that couldn't there be a chance that Kathy's vote was read first and the tally was 3-1 before Neleh's second vote was called out? And since 3 pple voted for Sean, why does it have to be Kathy's vote that was read out last? Vecepia's win Why does Vecepia's 4th vote have to be read out last? Could there have been a possibility that her 4 votes were all read out before Neleh's 3 votes? Same goes for Tina in S2. Classic example in S5 Helen's vote. Why does it have to be last? Her handwriting was quite unique and would be very obvious if it was read out early. My question is how come it has to be the last, the "swing vote"? I remembered many other instances where the last votes read were always not edited in the voting process but I can't come up with the examples right now. Maybe they edited it and simulated Jeff reading the votes again? Any comments?

3. "RE: Order of Votes Read" |
No personal offence intended, ZJ, but:*DUH!* Yes, it is well known that JP re-orders the vote. Another example: in S-3 when Linda was booted. JP ordered it 3 in a row for Silas, then 4 in a row for Linda. This was done after Silas demanded that everyone vote for Lindsey. Then we got to see Frank's smile as those votes for Silas were read. I enjoyed that moment myself, one of the very few good moments of S-3. There are plenty of other examples, but the basic order when close: Bootee gets first one or two, then non-bootee (the "other" guy) gets read and takes the vote lead, then bootee makes a "comeback" and is waxed. This scenario happened very frequently in S-4. Contradictions don't exist. If you are faced with a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong. -- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

She probably told them she was named after Ghandi.

The reason why I posted this was because I had no idea that the votes were actually arranged.

Yes, and also, some Survivors in the past have said to have learned their tribemates handwriting and had ways to mark their votes. Therefore in order to ensure maximum suspense value at TC, you'd think Jiffy made sure that the right vote was read last. (That way you wouldn't hear Ghandia groan if Helen's vote was read first--in the off chance she knew Helen's writing)

13. "RE: Helen's vote" |
When someone's vote isnt shown, just a shot of them opening the pen and starting to write, I try to notice where they are placing the pen. Because on some letters you start from the bottom, on others at the top. Just something I notice.
