Krautboy 2750 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Howard Stern Show Guest" 03-04-01, 01:46 AM (EST) "Protecting the "weakest link" " LAST EDITED ON 03-04-01 AT 01:58 AM (EST) The alliances of Kucha and Ogakor going into the merger are only as strong as their weakest link. At this point there is a high probability of a 5-5 tie. MB can control the game by manipulating the tie breaker rules or throwing them out all together. The two alliances have very little control over the rules and neither do we. But, assuming the current tie-break rule of "most previous votes" loses, Kucha's weak link: Jeff -- 2 votes (Kucha may only think 1) Ogakor's weak links: Jerri -- 2 votes Keith -- 3 votes Ogakor has two weak links to Kuchas one. The only way to strengthen a "weak link" is to give it immunity. If the immunity challenge were such that the other members of the alliance could sacrifice themselves so that their "weak link" could win immunity, it would at least assure them of a worst case double tie-breaker. I guess you can see I'm grasping for straws. After the last episode I've lost some of my impartiality and find myself wanting Kucha to prevail, eventhough the evidence we have found so far leans the other way. Kucha's resolve is strong enough right now that they trust each other enough to be willing to give up their own chance at immunity to help protect Jeff by helping him win it this week. Then all they have to do is identify the vulnerable Ogakor target: either Keith or Jerri... While I'm worried that it doesn't happen, I hope that the Kucha alliance is smart enough to figure out, after spending a little time with the Ogakorians, that Colby is a nice guy who's strong and smart and probably been a pre-merger asset that wouldn't have accumulated many votes. At the same time,I hope that the bad blood between Jerri and Keith becomes apparent very quickly and the Kuchas see that they have probably voted for each other a few times along the way. I can only hope at this point, but will continue to look for evidence to help me believe that Jeff and Kucha can survive this most important up-coming vote.   Top

They have several perceptive members who would be able to observe these things from their interactions with Ogakor. It remains to be seen how they will act on what they see, but it might be along the direction you suggested.   Top
