"SurvivorBlows Tribe, Time To Vote: S16 Finale" |
Last time on.. oh, nevermind. Next time on S16: Jeff spends a lot of time retreading the entire season, challenge of all this seasons challenges, tribal, walk of reliving the entire season... Who will win S16? Let's vote!THE RULESAs always, the first rule is: Put your vote IN THE SUBJECT HEADING! Just erase the bit where it says "Re: SurvivorBlows Tribe: Time To Vote: S16 Finale" and replace with your vote. This time, however, you don't want to vote for the boot, you want to vote for the finishing order of the Final Four. The order of your vote should be as follows: 4th/3rd/2nd/1st (winner!). Please use the following designations when casting your vote: A for Amanda Kimmel C for Cirie Fields N for Natalie Bolton P for Parvati Shallow So, for example, should you think Amanda will finish 4th, Cirie will finish 3rd, Natalie will finish 2nd, and Parvati will finish 1st (win), your vote should read: A/C/N/POf course, the other standard rules of vote threads also apply to this vote thread. Reply ONLY to this post! This is not a discussion thread. But if you decide to change your vote then REPLY TO YOUR OWN POST! No sig pics! Have fun!TIES! Some of these players can potentially end up tied. If there is an F3 with a Jury7 there is a potential 2nd place tie and a potential 1st place tie. If there is an F2 with a Jury8 there is a potential 1st place tie. You can vote on these ties if you think they will happen. Using the above example: If you think there will be a 2nd place tie your vote would read A/C=N/P. If you think there will be a 1st place tie your vote would read A/C/N=P. You don't have to vote on ties, you simply have that option. As always, of course, anything else you want to vote on, who wins a challenge, who wins the America's Vote extra prize, how long they'll run a firebuilding tiebreaker on live TV, these should go in your post. And we are interested in anything you have to say. Speculations on a winner tiebreaker might be fun, EPMB hates ties. And the DAWs are: Jury Rejects Jonny "Fairplay" Dalton (Malakal) Mary Sartain (Airai) Yau-Man Chan (Malakal) Mikey B Bortone (Airai) Joel Anderson (Airai/New Malakal) Jonathan Penner (Malakal/New Airai) Chet Welch (Airai/New Malakal) Kathleen Sleckman (Airai/New Airai) Tracy Hughes-Wolf (Airai/New Malakal) Ami Cusack (Malakal/New Malakal) The Jury Eliza Orlins (Malakal/New Airai/Dabu) Oscar/Ozzy Lusth (Malakal/New Malakal/Dabu) Jason Siska (Airai/New Airai/Dabu) James Clement (Malakal/New Airai/Dabu) Alexis Jones (Airai/New Airai/Dabu) Erik "the Zed" Reichenbach (Airai/New Malakal/Dabu) Dabu Tribe (Lime) Amanda Kimmel (Malakal/New Malakal) Cirie Fields (Malakal/New Malakal) Natalie Bolton (Airai/New Airai) Parvati Shallow (Malakal/New Airai)

Natalie is the easy next vote. Parvati and Amanda won't betray each other and Cirie isn't going to force a tie figuring the being in the Final Three gets you to the last TC. However, this time around it's a final two. Oops!Cirie won't win the last immunity challenge and the Parvati-Amanda alliance stays true and they vote Cirie out, which returns the tradition of the best person getting voted out at number three. Amanda edges out Parvati because she learned a thing or two from her disastrous final TC last time. Jury votes: Eliza Orlins - Amanda (respects her game) Ozzy Lusth - Amanda (still with her) Jason Siska - Parvati (maybe he figures he'll have a shot with her) James - Amanda (Parvati screwed him over) Alexis - Amanda (respects her game) Erik - Amanda (please, please, be my friend?) Natalie - Parvati (just a guess) Cirie - Parvati (just a guess)

Gotta be different, just because I can.Natalie is an easy first vote if she doesn't win IC. If there is a Final 2, Cirie is an easy vote out, since neither Amanda nor Parvati would want to go against her. So...does Parvati's million dollar quotes early on signal her winning the game, or just coming close? Eliza - Could vote for Parv since her blindside of Ozzy started all of the fun. Ozzy - He won't vote for Parv. Nope. Jason - Could vote for Parv, he spoke respectfully of her while he was in the game James - He won't vote for Parv. Alexis - Could vote for Parv. Erik - Could vote for Parv since she had her hands bloodied the least in his ouster. Natalie - Could vote against all of the perceived Amanda love. Cirie - Could vote for Parv, since Amanda was her puppet for so much of the game. Has Amanda had enough time to learn from her disasterous jury performance in China? I'll say no and give the win to Parv.

Natalie is the easy first boot as the other three are allied.Cirie loses the next IC and is booted because neither Parvati or Amanda want to face her at F2. Parvati collects a couple of token jury votes but has too many enemies to win. Amanda gives a credible performance at Final TC this time and wins going away.

I don't do spoilers at all anymore, but this season has been so predictable thanks to some really obvious editing and blatant promos. Amanda goes out first because the other 3 know they can't beat her at the end, and if they believe that final 3 go to jury, they have to oust her at final 4. (immunity would be the only thing to save her here) Natalie goes next because Cirie and Parv don't know how the jury views her. Parv takes all the heat and gets blasted at final TC. Cirie pulls all the strings and Parv gets all the blame. The jury is very bitter and gives it to Cirie, who IMO, actually played the best all around game and deserves the title.

LAST EDITED ON 05-09-08 AT 12:17 PM (EST)Most likely, Amanda will win the rest of the immunity challenges and the three original FAV girls will stick together. First, they will boot Natalie. Since KO'Brien_Fan told us it would be an F-2, one more has to go and I think Cirie will be blind-sided. Neither Amanda nor Parv could win against her. Therefore, Cirie will go. F2 is Amanda and Parv. Ozzy's going to shock and awe everyone with his Snakes (Parv) and Kittens (Amanda) speech! Lastly, I think she blew it in China and will have learned from her past mistakes. Amanda is going to finally get her jury address right, after all, she learned from the greatest jury convincer/orator of all -- Todd. Here's how it will go down ... Eliza: Amanda Ozzy: Amanda Jason: Amanda Alexis: Parvati James: Amanda Erik: Amanda Natalie: Parvati Cirie: Amanda Will EPMB find a way to give another million to Ozzy? I certainly hope so!! ;)

Amanda is too good. Immunity to her x2, and then jury to her.Jury votes: Eliza Orlins - Amanda Ozzy Lusth - Amanda (she didn't betray him like Parv) Jason Siska - Parv James - Parv (despite the betrayal, she has him) Alexis - Amanda (respects her game) Erik - Amanda Natalie - Parv Cirie - Amanda (out of respect, though if it is Amanda who picks Cirie to go home this could be tough) I am struggling most with Alexis and Nat votes. Will they split their votes? They could be the swing votes.

Amanda should go first, I think she is to be the jury favorite.Cerie goes next. Either P or N win final immunity, and neither will want to sit beside Cerie at F2. N goes next, too many enemies on Jury. P will win, because she is slightly less unpopular than Natalie. An optional popularity contest should go to Cerie. Maybe Amanda.

LAST EDITED ON 05-09-08 AT 06:05 PM (EST)Predictions: Amanda wins immunity at F4, Natalie gets the boot. At the (surprise) F3 immunity challenge, Amanda wins again and dumps Cirie in favor of taking Parvati to F2. While I think Parvati and Amanda are equally deserving of the win, I think Amanda is likely to pull more jury votes. I also note something that VerucaSalt has brought up in past editing threads: when we hear other players speak favorably about a contestant it is usually a good omen for that contestant's chances. While Parvati herself has generally come across favorably, we haven't heard many (if any) complimentary comments from her tribemates, whereas Amanda has been remarked on favorably by almost all the others (even Cirie gave her major props last night). Amanda wins 6-2. edited to remove sig-pic

Sounds predictable to me, but I could be really wrong.If Natalie wins IC, then Cirie goes. Otherwise, Natalie will be the first. Cirie sucks at challenges and Parvati and Amanda seem tight, so Cirie is next. I honestly don't see Parvati winning, so... Amanda wins!

I don't think Natalie will win the next immunity, so she is quite an obvious one to go. However, after reading Erik's interview about how close Nat and Parv are, I'm kinda hoping for a tie between Natalie and Cirie. Wouldn't it be such a nice story if Cirie has to build a fire to save her life again? Remember when they came back from the last tribal council in the last episode? It was dark in the cave and Cirie asked the rest of them, "Do you want me to start a fire?" Parvati wanted to know, "Can you do it in the dark?" Of course she can and she did! I think it was interesting that they chose to show us that, and only one episode away from F4 when Cirie failed the last time. It should make a great story if Cirie has a chance to "redeem herself" as well since she talked a lot about redemption (if only to fool Erik.)It's just wishful thinking on my part, though. Whoever wins F3 immunity is not going to take Cirie with her. So I'll say she ends up 3rd and becomes the last jury. Then all the favorites vote for Amanda, all the fans for Parvati, except for Alexis. Amanda wins.

I think Amanda will win the next IC and the faves will stick together and vote Nat out.I'm hoping they will switch it up to a F2 -- keep people guessing each season on whether a F2 or F3, so it's harder to "plan ahead." Parv will win and bring her "best friend" to appear better before the jury. Votes: Eliza ~~ Parvati (respects her game/blindside of Ozzy) Ozzy ~~ Amanda ('cause he's in lurve/lust) Jason ~~ Parvati (got to know her better & gameplay) James ~~ Amanda (They go waaaay back . . . to China) Alexis ~~ Parvati (close w/Parv & jealous of Amanda) Erik ~~ Amanda (Erik loves Ozzy who loves Amanda) Natalie ~~ Parvati (close w/Parvati) Cirie ~~ Parvati (partners in crime & not boring) Amanda loses again, but at least this time she got some votes. Parvati played a better social game, interacting with the fans more, while Amanda AGAIN remained in her "small clicque."

This was really tough this time. I'm hoping Amanda wins, she played well this season. But, my fear is that Amanda is going to get blindsided, and voted out thus not making the F2 or F3 or whatever it is. I think the pics of Parvati crying is her feeling remorseful after throwing her good buddy Amanda under the bus. I could go either way on Nat being voted out first or next, or maybe the others are thinking of taking Nat with them because she is such a lunatic that no one will vote for her. But I dont think the others saw that psycho side of Nat like we did.Unfortunately, with the exception of a couple of seasons, the ones I like the least are the ones that win the million. That said - I think Cirie wins. : ( Still keeping my fingers crossed for Amanda though!!! GO AMANDA!

LAST EDITED ON 05-11-08 AT 11:58 AM (EST) Without immunity, Natalie is gone. She is the only one left who can be guaranteed to have three votes against her--A and P are safe because neither will vote for the other and C will be safe because she's proven her loyalty to Amanda.At three, Cirie will still go because Amanda and Parv have already said that they will not vote for each other. Voting at this point would be jury suicide (Parv, especially, can't afford to be seen as gutting yet another one of her original alliance), so they will stay faithful. Cirie will be played up as a jury threat because she hasn't ticked anyone off (Alexis, Ozzie, James, etc.) They can make the case to her that they fear her in the end and pander to her ego for her vote. In a showdown I think it could get interesting--it's going to boil down to two things..or a third...: 1. Whether jury members hold grudges. If they do, Amanda wins. 2. Whether jury members are going to 'reward' game play. If they do, Par could pull it off. While Amanda has been more instrumental at the end, Parvati has been a force throughout the game and her alliance with Alexis and Natalie was the turning point in the game. Without making that move, the final four would have looked very difference. 3. Whether either finalist is able to take advantage of her opponents bad graces with some jurors AND emphasize her own skill in play. Amanda wins this way, I think...she may have pizzed Alexis off, but Alexis strikes me as someone who will vote out of respect, not anger. Ozzie, on the other hand, isn't going to vote for Parv. Amanda made connections with Erik and Jason and those could be the two votes that tip scales in her favor (James, Ozzie, Jason Erik...plus either Eliza or Alexis) Whatever happens, it's going to be a FANTASTIC finale and I can't wait!! PS fwiw, I have actually thought Parvati would win this from the get go and if she does, it will not be a surprise. I think she's played very well. AND...I don't think Cirie has outplayed anyone. She's outlasted and outwitted, but she has not been a force at any challenge and that's going to count in the end with this jury of so many fiercely competitive players.

Natalie has gotten a nothing/evil edit Cirie has gotten a scheming/lazy/good/evil edit Parvati has gotten a scheming/evil/lazy edit Amanda has gotten a not much/scheming/good edit just don't know...

I have to believe the CBS Misdirection Clue regarding Ozzy and his stunning statement at TC wouldn't have been mentioned if it was insignificant. Clearly, the man has a powerful influence on his fellow survivors, whether you may like him or not. He is even seated at the head of the table at Ponderosa, and when anything would happen at camp, the first person anyone would scream for was Ozzy. Ozzy will be direct and vehement towards Parvati, while he'll be admiring and adoring of Amanda's game play and even if Amanda becomes tongue tied, as she did in China, Ozzy will vocalize her game for her. With all the noting by Jiffy of the "man crushes on Ozzy", I predict that his opinion may indeed sway some votes. Clearly Ozzy and James will vote Amanda. Erik, while I was unsure of, I think once reading his post boot interviews, will indeed vote Amanda along with his man-crush. Jason, seems like he has really bonded with Ozzy at the Ponderosa, I think to the point of voting for Amanda as well. Being a victim of the HII, he will definately assign major power points for using it the right way. So, Ozzy, James, Erik, Jason are solid Amanda votes for me. If Amanda wins immunities now that will only add to her favor. Eliza. She has gunned for Parv the entire time. I think she discounted Amanda. I think since she is also on the jury with Ozzy and is sharing the events with pro-Amanda types that she could be swayed. I see her voting for Amanda over Parvati at this point, but it is close. I definately do not see her as purely pro-Parv. Alexis: Definately, I think Alexis was more Parvati than Amanda. But, she will give kudos to Amanda for using the idol and blindsiding her. She has spoken about not wanting to face Amanda in front of the jury, why? I think she is possible Amanda vote, but right now, I think she indeed favors Parvati, as it was Parv that gave she and Natalie a fighting chance in this game. She seems like the loyal type to me. Also, she may see Amanda as somewhat of a rival, regarding Ozzy. Girls can and do hold grudges... Cirie: Cirie and Amanda had more of a developed relationship than Cirie and Parv. But, I do see Cirie as an emotional player at times, and a vindictive one. I think whoever wins the F3 challenge will have to choose who they go to the finals with. I think whoever it is, will likely lose Cirie's vote. Parvati won the last endurance challenge, but was it only because Amanda had to go to the bathroom? Can Amanda outlast Parv at endurance? Whoever cuts Cirie, could lose her vote. If she doesn't hold this person responsible and credits the right one for game play, I think she is more likely to support Amanda. If she is vindictive though, she will vote for the one that does not cut her. Natalie is a sure vote for Parv. Another thing I want to add is that it is clear that Amanda did indeed learn from Todd regarding how to reel in the jury. She has been front and center, very vocal and decisive throughout the last two tribal councils. She knows that these times in front of the jury presents the stage where she must perform like never before, and she is rising to the occasion. She has already demonstrated, to me, a far different picture of a winner, than she ever did in China. Even without Ozzy there, I think she is doing fine all by herself. With Ozzy there, it is just icing on the cake. Remember, Jeff said that the most likely one to win would be the one that learned their weaknesses from the first time they played. Amanda has always had the ability to align with the RIGHT people. Clearly, she is demonstrating a lesson learned by the master, Todd. I think Amanda will take this season.

30. "RE: C/N/P/A" |
Wow! I'm thinking now that Amanda didnt actually "have to go to the bathroom" - but decided she didnt WANT to win. So now no one knows how good she is at the final endurance challenge. Which would have made her even more of a threat to let her get that far.I think Natalie is the foil - that Amanda will bring her to the F3, and put Cirie on the jury. In her mind (whether its true or not) Alexis is a vote for either Parvati or Natalie, and if Nat's on the jury - thats two votes for Parvati. With Nat in the F3 that takes a vote away from Parvati, and maybe two with Alexis giving Natalie her only vote. We were pointedly shown Amanda's friendship with James before he left - and the downfall of his relationship with Parvati. Both he and Ozzy are in her pocket. I agree that Jason and Eric are at Ozzy's beck and call votes-wise. I think she's got Eliza as well. On Insider Cirie made a point about how much she doesnt actually LIKE Parvati, but never says anything bad against Amanda. If both Parvati and Amanda send her to the jury - she'll side with Amanda. Amanda needs to win the final immunity challenge though - I think if she doesnt she's in really hot water and will need to scramble because none of them want to face the jury with her. She's actually been shown cultivating some form of relationship with everyone on the jury except Eliza and Alexis. And she only turned on people when she had no choice - or so they think. Of the women left she's been shown to play hard when she had to, yet somehow be above the rest of them morally. In a season of blindsides I think Cirie and Parvati - the main orchestrators of the blindsides are going to find themselves blindsided - by not winning!
