Rob's fire token thing was hilarious.
Especially juxtaposed to Tyson's Ron Burgundy speech about how great he is.

And calling Rob a "portly chap" (I think that was the quote)!

I've added in the making the merge points and thinks have changed, Rolf! (Phantom)

Our new leader in the clubhouse is Bobcat06 with 40 points, followed closely by several others. It's an individual game now which means some weeks you're going to get a lot of points and some weeks you might get zilch.

On a different note, I think I'm enjoying EoE more than the main game right now. Ethan and Parv's highly empathetic talk and Ethan's transparency are just fantastic TV.

I agree that EoE is more interesting than the main game, but that's probably because it has by far the best cast of characters.

**** Sandra and all her "Queen" bull***** I'm glad she tapped out.

I doubt her tribe would have even made it to the puzzle portion of the immunity challenge had she not been sent to EoE the night before.

I'm gonna be one of those....

Southlake has Yul and Tyson, not noted as EOE.

He's a convict and a liar. He's not on this season because his last time on the show he was thrown off the show for taking his clothes off during a challenge and rubbing his genitals on another player.

what did he lie about?

I think his story about being part of casting and the entire production crew wanting him but some CBS exec nixing it was BS.
There are 38 former winners - 20 made the cut and 18 didn't. I'd rather see fireman tom than hatch from the missing winner pool.

Congrats to you Tyson-ites out there; last night you got a nice 5 point bonus as he returned from the EoE.

Denise & Jeremy won the II, allowing both Southlake and Quinn to rack up 10 points.
Four other players notched 5 points and everyone else took a goose egg!

Love Tyson

I feel like they had the right idea to take out the "small" targets they just didnt execute. Wendell took a hit for me this year. He wasnt near as much fun this time around.

On RHPA Rob and Stephen talked about how players that play as duos have a hard time their second go of it. JT being the best example.
Fat Bib Fortuna

Either Wendell got a great edit the first time or fame went to his head, which is certainly understandable if you're hanging out with a bunch of other $1 million winners and banging at least one of them after previously being just a reclusive guy making furniture.

Did Jeremy vote for Adam and get left out of the vote? I didn't watch the end credits. It was a great move strategically, because Nick and Michelle look pretty clueless without Wendell holding their hand.

Never been a big Tyson guy, but his candor before the EoE challenge, his raw emotion in celebration, and the fact that he was able to keep himself from being a target FOR EVEN ONE SECOND after the merge was amazing. I don't like that there is still another chance for someone else to get back in the game. This should have been it.

And jeez, how about Tony with some erudite comments at Tribal? I thought he'd be one of the first people out overall given his personality, but he's really low-key playing and I think the others have sort of taken him for granted as a dolt to their discredit.

All the physical credit in the world to Jeremy for winning the men's II. That kind of competition is not made for a big brawny guy like a firefighter. I couldn't last 15 seconds on that thing.

They haven't been showing the votes in the credits this year, but I assumed that Nick, Wendell, and Michelle voted for Adam.

And that would mean that Jeremy, for all of his "wanna replace Nick as Wendell's #1", voted for Wendell.

True, but my assumption was that he realized it made more sense to go with the flow (like everyone discussed) rather than making a big deal out of trying to save Wendell.

Yeah, and that's smart. If the rest of the gang wants to lose Wendell, hanging on to him is a bad idea.

I'm surprised that they didn't turn around and immediately vote out Tyson. Seems like a mistake to me, but what do I know?

We all talk about whether or not Sanda should actually be the "Queen", but you could tell how big of a player she was when all the players saw Denise knocking her out as a humongous move.

I wish the EoE was done after the merge, but not gonna lie, I'd be happy to see Rob get back in the game.

I think we sometimes forget they don't show all the conversations for suspense. I'm sure Jeremy agreed to vote Wendell to keep the peace with the alliance. He made his case, it didn't work, so he changed it. If we see all the conversations there's no suspense at tribal.

I realize I'm extra invested in Jeremy because i'm the only one who picked him in the contest, but he's really come a long way considering the first vote of the whole game was just a coin flip between wiping him out or wiping Natalie out.

I hate this whole get back into the game BS.

Once is enough.

Apparently it was the only way the winners would play again.

I'm on the fence about EoE. I don't like having a chance to get back in the game so late after having lived with the jury without having to vote anyone out.... but... i do enjoy still seeing those who have been voted out.

And man... not sure if it was super creative editing... but I couldn't believe how close Tyson and Rob were to either one winning the challenge.

Dalton's piece on ew.com said nat and rob could have each bought up to 3 advantages in the challenge but each bought just 1 and a immunity idol instead, that seems really dumb

After them ignoring Tyson it seems a little dumb, but I would have thought that the sharks would have voted off Tyson (especially with that challenge showing) so an idol would be needed immediately.

But your point is probably the idol doesn't do much good if you don't get off extinction.

I wonder how they are going to reveal the winner this season since they likely won't be able to have a reunion. When is the last time they read the votes on the island? I'm assuming they weren't prescient to do that (though I prefer to see it that way - I always think reading the votes in studio when everyone is dressed up and in makeup is disorienting).
Rudyjax

They can't read it at tribal. Already filmed. I'm sure there will all be video.
Quinn
How long do you want to ignore this user?

Right, I know it's already filmed. When the show started, they read the final votes on the island for the first season or two. Highly doubt they did that this time, but I'm guessing they wish they had!
Rudyjax

Right.

No one predicted this madness.

Anyone still think she's the best Survivor player ever? I don't think you can wear that crown after quitting.

So name your GOAT. Easy enough to take shots without naming who you think is the best player ever.
Fat Bib Fortuna

There are tons of players more popular than sandra, but in a format where the only thing that matters is eliminating everyone else and then somehow convincing them all to vote for you to earn $1 million, sandra has 2 wins and nobody else has more than 1. That said, whomever wins this season will be elevated above sandra to the new all time best because their 2nd win will come against the greatest collection of competition the show has ever seen.
