So the spoilers last week said Lisa. I thought Bubba went cause bubba sounds lots like boobies. Turns out they were only a week off. LOL.

Yep, I agree. Plus, that challenge killed them. I do think it's a little unfair in those type of challenges that one team has 4 men. I'm not sure they could have won with any combination of their team taking the swimming part.

Still, they have to pull it together. I hate that we don't see everything. Too many women switched to voting Lisa out and we didnt' get to see ANY (besides the initial disagreement with Ami) of the talk about it. I hate that.

Okie doke. I'm off. I dropped everything when I came in so I wouldn't miss anything. Now I gotta go put stuff away :-)

Nighters! See you next week.

Once again Yasur mad a very poor emotional decision. I like Ami but her decisions are so far emotionally based and not tactical.Itis now obvious where the power and influence lies on the
Yasur team and its Ami. I thought for sure Eliza was gone.I really did not care for the way she was with Leann. Can't wait for her time to go before the merge.Gotta feeling its coming soon.

They will regret not voting out Eliza...Heck, they will regret not voting out Ami.

I was talking to my wife before the show and I said, "You know what's different about this season?"

My wife said, "What?"

I said, "There's nobody inherently evil this season. We had Richard, Boston Rob, Rob C, Jenna M and this season nobody has stood out as the evil one."

Well, boy was I disabused of that tonight. Ami took a seemingly, innocent remark and made a mountain out of it. I think Lisa did let it slip, but I don't think she meant what Ami took it as...Ami has become my evil one. It's not surprising she has power over Eliza and Leanne...Eliza doesn't even want to get dirty, she'll vote for whomever Ami says as long as she gets to stay. Same for Rory and Leanne.

Did anybody else notice that they *almost* revealed too much of Ami while she was under water during the IC? Maybe it's just because I'm a guy and we notice this stuff...and I'm not talking a boob slipping out of her top.

eliza was flying after those pigs and was covered head to toe with mud. i can't believe they keep scout around. eliza and leanne messed up bad....BUT if scout could participate more that would help the team. yes ami has voted emotionally. but keeping scout around is for emotional reasons too. rory was really quite funny tonight with him giving the speech even he didn't believe himself. he did an awsome job in the water.

I think Eliza made a good point...Scout is a liability because they have to sit her out of so many challenges. They should have voted Scout out IMO...if not Scout then Eliza or Leann.

I didn't like Rory in the beginning, but he's kinda grown on me. I want Eliza out cause she bugs me...She may have been covered with mud...but did she really try? I didn't see her dive like the others did...I seen her run around with her nose turned up; then giving up because it's too hard...I can't do it.

Scout did a great job holding that gate open. Heck, even Leanne gave it her best shot in the water. We didn't even get a chance to see how Eliza would have wussed out.

Oh and whats with what's her name taking her clothes off to sun her bottom? Has she nothing better to do? I mean...good grief. I think she's hoping that if she can't win Survivor...she can pose for Playboy. It wouldn't be the first time a Survivor contestant did that.

This has to be the most boring year just judging by the absence of posts after the show!!

Usually the board is hopping all night and the next day.

I know what you mean Pamy... Even years when posting has been slow in the begining, it never has been this slow for this long...

*sighs*... I hope this isn't indicative of waning popularity for this show... Survivor is still one of my most favorite reality shows...

I would hate to admit that I don't mind Eliza.

Actually, if ANYONE was allowed to catch pigs....I would send the ONE or TWO people out who were quick and adept at catching the pigglys. If I were on a team where a person wasted a TON of time not catching anything, I would be mad that they wasted time by not giving up their turn.

I watched the show over, and Eliza tried, and she got dirty. She wasn't catching anything not for lack of trying, but just plain being bad at catching them. I think Lisa wasted some time too (or at least I think it was Lisa).

Once I realized there were no restrictions on who was doing all the catching, I thought only one or two per team should have been doing it.

Each survivor was limited to catching exactly 2 pigs, so all but the gatekeeper needed to try.

lol scout did a good job with the gate. wow she did a bang up job opening and closing the gate.

as for leanne she treaded water and said she couldn't do it. like or dislike eliza doesn't change that it would be better for scout to be voted out.

I thought JP said that each tribe member (except the gatekeeper) had to catch 2 pigs.
Lopevi's tribe each did their 2 before the next person started.
Yasur did 1 pig and then the next person went. Once everyone was done with the first round (except Eliza), they started with Rory again.

oh....you see.....sometimes I don't listen too well. hahaha!! I tend to gloss over challenge instructions, most of the challenges, etc. They waste too much time and they are boring. I guess if I would have listened more closely, I would have known the correct Pig Challenge rules. Sorry all...

Yeah I'd like to see Scout gone too. The respect for the elderly thing is a bit much.

I find it interesting that Amy is so outspoken, and everyone seems to go along with her. Most other reality shows, she wouldn't get away with the way she deals with people. Does anyone else feel the same way? Wouldn't it seem that on any other live-together type of reality show (Survivor, BB), the other contestants would label her as a witch, and she would be disliked?

She must be very dynamic in scenes we are not seeing, or people are just scared of her and the power she seems to hold over the rest of her team.

Why they keep Scout is beyond me. Sure, they like her but Eliza did make a good point. There is no opportunity to sit anyone else out of a challenge. Clearly Eliza would have tended the gate and they could have won.

Amy is honest and that is good but cold and haughty.

Lisa got booted totally out of the blue. Maybe I am just not that into Survivor this year and missed something. They were foolish not to have ousted Rory or Scout.

I haven't been as excited about this Survivor. But, after last night's show, I am more into it. Maybe it took longer to get to know the Survivors a bit. For the last survivor, All Stars, we already knew them.

Rory is not playing a very smart game. He is lucky he is still there. I don't blame him for trying anything to stay, but telling them he had thought awful things about them?!!!! That was not smart...especially to say that to women!

I kind of like Amy. I like that she says what she thinks and that she's not afraid to stir things up! I LOL when she said to Lisa's face that she'd be more inclined to vote out Lisa! My kids asked "who's Lisa"...they couldn't beleive Amy was saying it right to her face.

I'm not sure what all she didn't trust Lisa about, but when Bubba and Rory first joined the tribe, Lisa seemed too naive about not sharing all their secrets with them. She just couldn't get it. (I'm talking about the food thing she wanted to show them "because it's cool"). I think it is smarter for the women to stick together and try to make the merge with as many women as possible. I think that is why Amy didn't really want to include Bubba and Rory fully in the tribe. I think that is ok.

Scout has not been pulling her weight physically in the challenges. If she is not sitting out, she is the first one to raise her hand for the easiest part of the physical challenges. Having her sit out or do the easy things is better for the team, it increases their chances to win. But, she is a liability. I would like to see more of her personality. I like her so far. But if I were on Survivor, I would want her out or not on my team.

Carlito, ITA with you about not caring for the way Eliza was with LeeAnn after LeeAnn performed so poorly in the water challenge.

Happy mom said >>>>Having her (scout) sit out or do the easy things is better for the team, it increases their chances to win.<<<<

Having Scout *decreases* their chance of winning. It does not allow another player, who may not be well suited for a challenge, to sit out or chose the lighter role. We saw this with Eliza last night.

Had they kept Dolly and let Scout go, Eliza would have tended the gate and Dolly would probably been very swift with the pigs.

Keeping ANYONE with an artifical knee who can only sit out is just nuts.

It's only a bad strategy if you get the boot before merge. If you make merge, keeping Scout might be very good. She's far less likely to win individual immunity.

Cousin Jake, you took the words right out of my fingers! I thought exactly the same thing. Scout has almost no chance of winning any type of immunity competition that requires speed, strength or agility. Her team members surely must be aware of this.

Yes, this is true but will you make it to the merge with enough tribe members to survive on the merged team! There is that too.

I thought they were right to keep Rory. He managed to catch up & even overtake Sarge in the water challenge. If it wasn't for him, it would have been a total blow out (like it wasn't already LOL )

I don't like Eliza or Ami.
