Can anybody do like a row of pictures of Jeff through the seasons -- it is strange how much he has changed looks wise -- I think he's got a bad dye job on his hair.

He really looked ill after Africa. I think he got a bad bug there.

I'm happy Cirie won he Yukon; happy Aras won instead of Danielle; Tina moved me to tears and I was in awe of her strength and honesty; Terry is a good guy; mostly, I'm happy I never have to watch Courtney again, bleh.

On Survivor Live today, Danielle said that when she was trying to get Terry to give her HII at F4 she had no intention of sticking with Terry. If she could have talked Terry out of it, she was going right to Aras and Cirie with that info so they could all vote Terry out. She thinks Terry kind of knew that and that is why he wouldn't give it up without the II around his neck.

Terry also talked about his "managerial decision" to vote Dan out. He said the team all talked openly about who would go and it was decided Dan (with Dan agreeing and in on the coveration) would go. Terry didn't know what to say when Jeff asked about who he was going to vote. He didn't want to say the one he liked least, the one who was the weakest, etc. because none of that was true, so put on the spot he fell back on a team he works with in his job that is a "Managerial team" and makes all decisions together, and so he called it a Managerial decision. I hope this clears up any hard feelings about Terry's 'managerial' decision. I, myself always just thought that due to Terry's work, it was just a "key" word that he used at work and never meant anything arrogant about it. so that kind of confirmed what I thought.

I'm just soooo glad Danielle did not win. I'm sorry but there is just something about her that bugged the crap out me almost as much as Courtney's do anywhere yoga.

Heyya..I don't usually play over here, but there is one thought that has been bugging me since it happened so I just had to share and see if anyone could shed any light on it. I read back a few pages and didn't see it discussed, but it might well be out there somewhere, so my apologies if it is.

Can anyone explain to me why Terri didn't give Danielle the hidden immunity idol at the final 4 tribal? I think that move cost him a million personally. It was no good after that, and he could have not only guaranteed the result he wanted but solidified an allience with Danielle. I just can't figure out why he wouldn't do this or what he had to lose at that point. Anyone??? Thanks.

FWIW I guess I preferred Aras to win given the choices but didn't especally care for either one of them. If only Cherie added more stuff to burn to her fire rather than just sit there watching D then I think she could have brought this game home.

And Woody, seems this is another show where I was agreeing w/your posts and opinions. What in the world has happened this year?!?!! hehehehe. :-)

Terry had to give the idol to Danielle before the Tribal Council vote. Once he gave it to Danielle he would have been extremely vulnerable to being voted out. In fact, I think Danielle said that she would have voted him out if he had given her the Idol.

ohhhhh thanks Jimmer. I thought they said once you could just slip it to someone...no? And I don't remember her saying that but sounds quite believable lol. Clearly promises meant zip at that point in the game as usual lol.

There was actually a lot about that idol they never fully explained...probably so MB could decide as we went along hehe. And meant to say what I totally agreed with Woody about was the post that said the final challenge was SOO biased for D. Not only is it easier for any women to balance herself on a small platform BUT with her gymnastic training it was a no brainer. I know they say these things are planned ahead but you would think in such a critical challenge they wouldn't do something where one contestant had such a major advantage over the others. I just think that was a lousy way for those guys to lose, since I don't feel they ever had a shot at winning that.

I was a little surprised that Danielle admitted after the fact that she would have gone back on her agreement and turned on Terry.

I agree that the final challenge should be something that is fair to both men and women. The balancing one was definitely skewed toward Danielle, but it might have been a different story if Cirie had been there at the end.

Most of the final challenges in the past have been more endurance than balance I think. This one ended pretty quickly. Tough way for Terry to lose.

Lurk, look at the post two above yours.

I'm surprised she admitted it, but I did think (after giving it some thought) that Terry simply couldn't trust her and that would have given him fourth place with no chance of going into that final competition.

They used the water balance concept that allowed Lill to go so far, too.. but supposedly they decide on the competitions before they know who will be in them.

Oh and Aras at least had the grace to admit that while he nodded to Danielle before he fell off, he was going to fall off anyway, no matter what.

It doesn't sound like too many people were happy Aras won, I for one was thrilled. I was rooting for him early on but wasn't exprecting him to be around much past merge time.

Terry just struck me wrong, he seemed like he wanted to be in charge and everyone had to listen to what he said.

Now time to wait for next falls show to start and pick my favorites.

Sea I had actually read that post lol...but my understanding of the immunity idol was that you used it AFTER you were voted out. So what I was questioning was when it came to a tie between Danielle and Cirie (who imho NO ONE had a chance against beating in the F2), why didn't Terry slip D the idol then, secure her victory that night, break the tie and make sure Cirie was voted off. While D might not have honored any deals with Terry, at least he would have been loyal to her, not to mention have some of her tribe members on the jury questioning her true loyalties.

So far as I see, he had nothing to lose by doing that, but at least a shot at something to gain. Especially since the idol was useless after that tribal. So I still don't see why not at least try to play it that way.

BTW of the final two I didn't really care who won as I didn't especially care for either, though I guess of those 2 I slightly preferred Aras--kinda sorta lol.

Yes, unlike S10, you can use the Idol after voting -- but you use it when you have the most votes and you use it by giving it to Jeff, not by giving it to another player. Any transfers have to occur before voting. Terry was not allowed to give the Idol to Danielle after the F4 vote.

Just a late post about the balancing challenge.

As soon as my dh saw what the challenge was, he said Terry wouldn't make it due to the laws of nature with us oldies not able to balance as long as a 24 y/o.

Coco, I knew Terry was at a huge disadvantage. I was actually surprised that Aras didn't balance better with his yoga practice and all..

Oh and someone mentioned it but I had to laugh that Danielle not only couldn't spell Aras (one would think if you met someone with a name like that, you'd have ASKED how to spell it) but not many people would spell a guy's name "Terri". Sheesh!

I haven't read through the whole thread, but has anybody brought up that Terry was clearly using a spear to catch fish...when I thought Sally had lost it.

Did they ever get another spear?

Glad Aras won...I'd hate to have to place Danielle next to Jenna, Amber, and Danni as undeserving winners.

I really enjoyed this Survivor XII! I watched every show. I am very glad that Aras won last night. It's good that Terry didn't win.

Can't wait to see next new one! YAY!!

U rock!

In the renunion segment, Terry said that Shane was his only ally and was bummed when he was voted out. That was a surprise. The editing never showed Terry trying to make a deal with him.
