ApplesandOranges posted:Also, I'm assuming the lackluster spices vs. fishing kit option was blatantly there to encourage Ron to steal the fishing kit if they'd lost, in which case the other tribe would have gotten spices. I was hoping he was going to steal their flint in the first episode to deny them fire since his tribe already had it. Tonight is the last chance he has to use it, right?

AWarmBody posted:Yeah, I hate Wardog because of that name. He probably chose the name for himself, too. I just now tried to imagine him with a normal name like Jerry and it was a little better. I liked her the first two weeks but yeah this week was Real Bad and I was hoping she'd get axed. She's good TV though

I'm gonna keep ogling the pretty ladies and there's nothing you can do to stop me! I'm not gonna post about it though that's weird. Having never seen any of the returnees before I definitely like David the most of the four. Joe seems to be the likable challenge beast that you can find every season, Aubry it's hard to judge because no tribal, and Wentworth is ok. I really hate the gimmick of mixing returning players with new players though because that aspect dominates the show too much imo and doesn't make for good tv.

xbilkis posted:That episode ruled. Wendy owns. Ron punking Joe owned, and I loved the "20 minutes earlier" reveal. Hell yeah, welcome to the Wardog train. Dude owns and is easily my favorite so far. Wendy's brand of crazy is getting more annoying by the week. I think y'all saying that her tribe got over it were just seeing what you wanted to see since there wasn't much time spent there.

STAC Goat posted:We have no idea how much Reem or Keith might have tried to fish or anything else. We just know Chris was successful. Most Survivors just seem woefully unsuccessful at fishing. And Keith can't even swim. Theyre clearly sucky Survivors but not necessarily for lack of effort. Yeah, Keith was the only one who really seemed like he was gatekeeping to me. Honestly he's up there for worst casting ever for me, he just seems like he's wholly unprepared for the game in literally every aspect.

STAC Goat posted:look at Lauren reacting so hard and missing her parents. Oh this reminds me of something I wanted to chime in on during parents chat but couldn't at the time. So I live really close to my mom (we actually work at the same place, though we're on different campuses) and also do the "I can go forever without talking to her" thing, but I can absolutely understand how the castaways feel about missing family so quickly, because even though I don't talk to family super often, I can whenever I want to. It's just a short text/e-mail/phone call away and I can talk to them about whatever. But on Survivor that safety net is gone. If you need some emotional support for whatever reason, be it a breakdown all the way down to just wanting to hear their voice, that option is gone. And I think the very first time you feel that need, even if it's one that you might normally brush off and not reach out were you at home, the absence of the ability to call them probably hits really hard.

STAC Goat posted:Wardog has obviously made moves but I wouldn't call either of those "remarkable". Being a swing vote isn't an accomplishment. He WAS effectively Chris' undoing but I chalk that up more to Chris screwing that whole thing up and the Wardog: "What do we do?" Wentworth: "We get rid of him!" dynamic. Wardog was certainly meaningful in that he saved Wentworth and doomed Chris but its not what I'd call a power move or resume builder. Wardog was a swing vote because all four of them trusted him and wanted to work with him, so a little more credit is due there imo. As far as the second part goes, I think "early juror" makes sense. There's going to be a point where he gets targeted for being a physical threat that's before the point where "resume builders" start getting targeted where he'll be voted out, is my guess.

I think part of it for me is that I just do not understand why people are so enamored with Wendy, and Wardog, who I find genuinely entertaining, gets a lot of the backlash. Also after finally watching that scene I feel like they were making fun of her dumb stick (which they offered to help replace with a better one before she walked off) more than her injury, though they sort of go together. e: as far as the tattoo thing goes I think shaming someone for their tattoos is some real old man yells at cloud stuff, especially if you don't know the reason they got it.

BONESAWWWWWW posted:Ah, the NEE system. I mean they had a knighthood and everything. Wardog got a big two hour OOF from me today, and hey it turns out Wendy is more tolerable when she's not being a weirdo about chickens. Still not sad to see her go, not a fan of someone who just refuses to play the game and is just there ~for the experience~, though I did smile at her energy when she was leaving. Victoria is growing on me, I hope she goes far but it's gonna be a tough sell to win if she makes it to the end. lmao forever at Reem xbilkis posted:Big Wendy is too pure for this cursed game Having not seen any of the seasons he was on, I like David.

TMMadman posted:It sure did seem like Lauren, Dave and Kelly all said "Man, Wardog is annoying and will be impossible to work with later" (or something along those lines) at some point last night, so I was a little surprised that they didn't talk about just about voting Wardog and telling the other tribe at tribal. In this situation you act like you're with him and then if he's up in a tie you just don't go to rocks for him. And if he stays around he's a great shield. He basically appoints himself as the leader of any alliance so he's going to have a target on his back for that. And even though he looks like a physical threat, he's not, so you probably don't really need to worry about him going on an immunity run. Speaking of going to rocks though, I can't decide if I like it or not that Jeff let them talk before revoting or not.

STAC Goat posted:I imagine Kama has its share of weak links too but Joe is such a beast that he covers them. I'm not sure how you balance that out short of putting Malcolm on Manu or something. But yeah, I agree, to some extent Manu drew a bad hand. But I think part of that is also that they drew more strategists and people looking to game out of the gate and cut some throats. That pushed them straight into the game hard and they neglected all the "Tribe" stuff. And I think that took a toll as much as anything else. But yeah, I totally agree there were other factors as well. I actually went back and pulled it up on my dvr out of curiosity. Wendy steals the flint. Tribe sends David and Rick to talk to her. David and Rick use that chance to pitch the Wentworth vote to Wendy. The recap at the start of the episode teased that the three of them had talked about the vote in episode two as well but I couldn't figure out who brought it up to who and didn't want to dig for it, though I think they all were sort of having the same idea anyway.
