Survivor Gabon Fantasy League (Season Finale Tonight!)

[CAJUNWDWFAN]

I think i did pretty well. Better late than never.

 

[Sorsha]

I think *I* ROCKED last night! Taking the gamble with Randy paid off big for me!

I'm disappointed though. I found Randy highly entertaining, and I will miss him on the show. Nobody else even touches Randy on the sarcasm meter.

And I'm really disappointed in Bob. I expected more from him. Randy was a goner regardless. He would have been booted out for sure, no question about it, idol or no idol. There was no purpose in allowing Randy to make an absolute fool of himself like that. Sorry, Bob, that was cruel. Hope you hung your head in shame as you watched that with your family/friends last night.

I do have to give him a little credit though. At least he didn't cackle with glee with the rest of them. He looked rather sick, and I'm glad for at least that. I think he realized how low of a blow that was.

Regardless, Bob came down a few pegs in my eyes after last night's circus. I want to see strategy, not deceit and childish pranks.

There.... got that off my chest.

I have to respectfully disagree with you a little on this one... I agree that Bob realized it was a low blow, and as an honorable man, probably felt ashamed of himself. And as a credit to him, he DID follow through with their agreement and vote Susie.
HOWEVER, IMHO Randy deserved everything he got. What a BUTTHEAD! Anyone who is that nasty, woman-hating, abrasive, and purposefully horrid to everyone around him SHOULD be thrown off in style! I think their idea was awesome and the dork played right into their hands. I only wish it had happened sooner! That man SO got on my nerves. Now, if only someone would take Crystal down a few pegs... IMHO, that woman is nothing but crabby attitude and crass mouth.
Respectfully,

Bob has really grown on me and would say he is my favorite. Randy got what he deserved. Sorry Pink

Hello.... Sis????

Since when does someone's poor behavior give you justification to act poorly yourself?

Did Randy deserve it? Yes, I can perhaps agree there. Was it right to do it? Absolutely NOT!

Matty is the only one left that has played an honorable game. Unfortunately, in this type of game, honesty most likely won't win you the million dollars. But I'd much rather walk out of the game with my integrity still intact and my head held high than with a million dollars in my pocket. Seriously.

Last night was nothing but childishness behavior on the part of Sugar. Bob should have said something. I would have much rather seen him vote for Randy to prove his loyalty to Fang than participate in that ugly charade.

I'll probably regret this. Something will happen next week that changes my opinion of all of them. Here's how I feel about them right now...

Kenny: Meh. The moves he's made so far haven't been terrifically brilliant. He's done what he needed to do to stay alive in the game. But, that's more credit than I can give some of the others.

Susie: I'm waiting for her to come out. It seems like she could be a sleeper this season.

Crystal: Hasn't shown us that gold medal athlete in any challenges and has played the game with her emotions not her brain. She's just as obnoxious as Randy. GO HOME!

Corinne: She's been played up as this explosive personality. Oh really?

Matty: He seems like a nice enough guy. I don't believe he thinks very far ahead in terms of game strategy. I would be happy to be wrong.

Bob: I really like Bob and I don't hold the prank last night against him. He seems like a smart guy who for some reason is missing the whole social part of the game. Bob! Taking a nap during the three hours between the merge and tribal council? C'mon!

Sugar: Immature brat. She's got no game and poisoning the jury against herself like she did last night was dumb. Personally, I think it's because she doesn't care about winning, just being on TV. She's been coasting along since day one. I'm not falling for her crocodile tears anymore, she can go home next and that would be fine.

Randy: Hated him, liked him, hated him again and finally ended up feeling really bad for the guy. Randy rubs some people the wrong way but he's authentic and I respect that.

Seeing Bob with his head hung low and Sugar and Crystal barely able to contain thier giggles was hard to watch. However, I did like it when Crystal gave her little speech in the voting area loud enough that everyone could hear it. Props to her, that was funny. But Sugar shouldn't have put Bob in that position. I was glad to see that he didn't compound it by voting for Randy too. Humiliating Randy was unnecessary and this late in a game for a million dollars, I think it was stupid. But after bidding up everything Randy bid on at the auction, refusing a cookie, then taking the last cookie, then giving the cookie away, using Bob as her pawn in a silly prank to humiliate a player who was going home anyway and after her little handsign "L" during the vote I think the real Sugar has come out and she's not so sweet.

 

[aengus]

wow, I think sugar is DA BOMB!

everyone thinks she is clueless yet she has an immunity idol, has been the deciding factor in the last 3 people voted off, and PIG TAILS! WOOT!

oh and I have this thing for bad girls

I still like bob, but I am disappointed in bob more for telling sugar he couldnt find the immunity idol. I mean, not only did it show he didnt think she capable of finding it, why would someone think she wouldnt tell her alliance HE DOESNT HAVE IT

HELLO BOB? other than that, I like Bob and didnt mind that he sold Randy down the river.

I CANT STAND CRYSTAL, but... I do agree with Pete, I thoroughly enjoyed her vote speech LOL. Bravo, but hopefully bye bye soon.

...but what about for a trip to Gabon?

Quiet you. If I remember correctly, you were voted off the island a LONG time ago.

 

[KrazyPete]

I posted this over in the CBS Forums. I figured I should share with my DIS friends too.

Someone else from here posts hilarious pictures over there. I think she should put some of them up. I won't say her name but her initials are threeboysmom... oops.

 

[aengus]

OH GREAT! The cookie monster cost me points last night and there you are posting him in my face so I relive it over again!

Nice work there petez!

 

[Sorsha]

Hey Pink hey Pink, HEY PINK!!!
You are back in first place again, girlfriend! And by a pretty decent margin, too! How awesome!

Thank you. Thank you. It won't last, LOL.

I just got extremely lucky this week that every other word out of Jeff's mouth was "Randy." Apparently, the other top players all shied away from placing Randy on the team which worked tremendously in my favor.

I KNEW MY BFF COULD DO IT!

OMG!

Did I miss anyone??

1) Only bonuses I noticed were both for Corinne. She said the title and she cleaned her teeth with a stick.

2) My initial counts are WAY OFF from the counts posted on CBS.... so this may take us a while to figure out why such a big discrepancy with some of the survivors. Be patient?

 

[MPhins13]

I totally forgot to post my picks I've been sick lately that I'm shocked I remember my name

Oops, sorry about that! I'll add your picks from last week into my last post. We'll probably have points up either later tonight or tomorrow morning.

So sorry to hear you're sick. Hope you are well on your way to a full recovery! Hugs!

Notes:
Our points match up with CBS' pretty closely except they gave most of the Survivors 30 extra points. We waited for the Fantasy League video recap but what it describes is consistent with our numbers. I have no idea what CBS is doing. Anyway, these have been counted three times but if you think there's an error, please feel free to call me out.

Important Fantasy League Notes!

Recap Episode
Because of the Thanksgiving holiday, this week's episode is a "recap." They will be summarizing the season so far, showing some previously unaired clips and some of the survivor audition tapes. I'm taking the week off! Don't post your picks this week, I ain't counting nothin'!

I don't believe CBS scores recap episodes either. But then again, nothing they do ever makes sense. If you're playing there, you'd better make your picks just in case.

DISBoard League Twist
I'd like to make a proposal for the final episode. Since it will probably be down to 4 or 5 Survivors we won't have many options for our teams. It's very likely that many of us will have the same Survivors. The only way we'll be able to score points on the other players is with the bonus points. To make it a little more interesting, I'd like for us to do what CBS did in the first season of Fantasy League.

Rank the players for the final episode! When you pick your final four Survivors for the last episode you also give them the rank that you think they will finish the game. For example:

Randy -2nd
Kelly - 1st
Charlie - 4th
Ace -3rd

We'll come up with a scheme for awarding points based on which positions you choose correctly. Maybe something like 4th=30, 3rd=40, 2nd=50 and 1st=60. I'm not really sure about the point values but you get the idea. And I'm not sure if this should replace our normal bonus point options or be in addition to them. Feel freel to talk it out. If you hate the idea that's ok too.

I like the Twist Idea ... this is survivor afterall Twists are to be expected
