Sounds like some racist rear end in a top hat attacked Michelle Yi from Survivor Fiji.

The gently caress is wrong with people?

more details here, apparently it was a homeless person that had attacked two other people earlier in the day

That was a really good episode. I noticed they've dialed the advantages down a lot since the merge, and it's really helping.

I feel like Ricard could win... but man I don't even know anymore.

Unrelated but how many more episodes do we have left in the tank? 2? 3?

one regular episode left then two hour finale the week after

Shan scowling and silently crying the whole time... extremely petulant. I enjoyed the jury's reaction this episode.

the game is a lot shorter this season around so she's probably had less than 24 hours to try to process everything, it's hard to blame her for wearing her emotions on her sleeve the way she is after the blindside that was pulled on her

i think erika and heather are attempting to leverage themselves as a required swing vote between the two factions of danny/deshawn and xavier/ricard. if you're trying to play both sides, it makes sense to take a shot at the deshawn/danny/liana trio today. with both danny and deshawn safe, that left you with one option. trying to target ricard or xavier today (remember we're looking from erika and heather's perspective here) only destabilizes your ability to be a swing vote and protect against the black alliance. what does make sense is to hit liana today, then next vote, you regroup and try to get danny and deshawn on your side and take a swipe at either ricard or xavier, whichever one doesn't win immunity. if ricard does win immunity and xavier makes it public he's gonna idol, or if you're worried he's gonna idol, then take out one of deshawn/danny, and align with whoever is left of the two afterward. you still have numbers 3 to 2. the problem however is we're playing a game that has a final three, so you have to bring in a third, and you need to bring in the least attractive looking third player for the end. this leaves either deshawn or xavier, which based on all the above, means to get to that destination, you have to move through it very carefully and methodically.

i think danny is a massive threat to win

im just saying if its down to deshawn danny and heather or even xander i wouldn't rule the guy out when nobody has any conflict with him.

It really just blows US Survivor out of the water on basically every level. The longer run time allows for the sob stories etc, but you still actually see some actual Survivor in Survivor.

having just finished it, yeah that was an insane season and is worth watching for anyone on the fence. everyone on that cast absolutely came to play.

we cant overlook that part of what makes australian survivor good is its longer run time per episode usually going between 50 to 70 minutes an ep vs us survivors 40 minutes per episode, along with having just 13 eps vs australian survivors 24-25 episodes.

i think erika has a decent chance in a final 3 with xander and heather but not much else beyond this. the way deshawn tries to drop these bombs though i worry hes gonna sabotage himself at the jury questioning phase if he gets to the end, i dont think he's a lock to win if he reaches the end.

extra vote was used last week. he still has an idol but i think hes basically being gauged as a goat at this point since all he's done is just sit on it and hasn't been in the driver seat for basically any moves in the last few weeks

Came back to survivor after years away. What the absolute duck is this final four fire? And we’re still doing final three? Both of these suck eggs.

So the last time there’s a vote is with five? Why. How. Sigh.
they moved to final threes because fan favorites kept getting axed right before final two
then they moved to final four firemaking because fan favorites kept getting axed right before final three.
