LAST EDITED ON 03-14-01 AT 11:16 PM (EST)Even though I screwed the pooch in the end, I'm happy to be part of what was a very productive week of spoiling.
Here is a review of some of the theories that came true from this week...I wish I could give credit to the people who created them, but I don't remember all of them.....add to this list if I forget any or if you want to give a pat on the back to any poster who really hit the mail on the head this week.
1. "Go Kucha"
Alicia was rumored to have had dinner last week with Michael and Jeff...she autographed a napkin "GO KUCHA" for a fan. The theory was that she wsant around long enough to identify with Baramundi...also, she left before Kucha had to turn on itself (if that happens)
2. Jeff on Early Show: "I can't put Alicia and Kimmi in the same room"
I'll put modesty aside and take credit for this one b/c I need a confidence boost after tonight's humiliating last minute bootee-switch (not to be confused w/ last weeks last miute bootee-switch which also backfired..idiot!)
The theory is that Kimmi's big mouth led to a chain of events that got Jeff booted. With the numerical advantage created by Jeff's departure, Alicia was easy prey to Ogakor...therefore, Alicia ALSO blames Kimmi's big mouth for being the proximate cause of her being booted. From Jeff's statement, it is apparent that Alicia still has harsh feelings towards Kimmmi....the theory states that the chicken dispute was not inflamatory enough to create long term ill-will so it had to be something else.....that is where the bridge is drawn to the conlcusion that the only way Alicia would still have severe ill-feelings towards Kimmi, is if she blamed her for her demise...put it all together and you get a Alicia boot in tonight's EP.
3. Alicia, not Nick was in the hot seat b/c of the pole.
This states that the combination of Nick jumping off at 1 1/2 hours plus Alicia staying on for 10 hours pushed Alicia into the spotlight as Kucha's biggest physical threat, thus making her the primary target for tonight.
4. Source Code: Liz and Amber are safe tonight.
Whether you believe that it is true or whether you think it is a red herring, both parties agreed that the result would be Lizliz and Lamber sticking around for awhile....if you believe it, you ahve them both penciled into the final 2. If you think its a red herring, you believe that they will stick around for a little while linger to give the herring some credence ala "Gervace X"
5. Mad Dog's friends
Well, much like Debb's friends this one also prvoed true as the only other Kucha left in the outback that are her friends are Alicia and maybe Rodger. Looks like bonding time at the ranch for MadDog and Alicia
6. Premiere party: Jeff, Alicia, Bitchell, Jerri
Now, it makes total sense. Jeff, Bitchell and Alicia all hang out at the ranch....Jerri might be there soon or even if she isn't, she is good enough friends with Bitchell to come into town and watch the premiere together.....in fact, she may be her only friend fromthe show..let's see what happens b/w her and Amber. The fact tha Kimmi, a long Island native, was not at the party lends credence to the #2.
7. Weight Loss
Keith, Lamber, Colbster, Nick, Rodger........all still alive.
8. Tina/phone call
Until she makes that call, she's not going anywhere.
9. People Magazine: Tina's husband = final 2
Tina's husband said that as soon as she got home, Tina took a 3 hour bath and at dinner she ate like a pig.
The theory is that she msut make it to the end of the game or else she would've had at least 5 days before she came home which is plenty of time to pig out and then have your appetite return bck to normal. Obviously, this is not a huge spoiler b/c there are other explanations that could fit such as the long international flight and plain and simple, missing home cooking but as long as she stays I will add this to the file of circumstantial evidence pointing in Tina's favor.
10. CJ's "final 2" picture analysis
Although it is definitely NOT a final four theory it may very well be a final two....is it Keith and Amber or is it a composite w/ Rich and Kelly...or is it Colby and Jerri...we don't know for sure but all of the possible players are still in contention.
I'm sure I'm missing plenty of them, but I'm sick of typing so I'll just post it and feel free to add to it....I think its a good idea to keep a thread that lists all the spoilers that are still in play...but, DON'T ARGUE ON THIS THREAD....this is just for listing or giving props to your favorite theories...if you want to dispute any of these spoilers, do it on a separate thread and then we can always remove theories as they are proved wrong.
Congrats to everyone who nailed it tonight.
