I like Sugar and Bob.

I don't know about Corinne and Matty and Charlie and Randy.

I absolutely don't like Kenny, Crystal, and Susie.

Eeyores... Denise was actually in the janitorial department. Huuuuuuuuge Survivor scandal. She said at the reunion show that she had lost her job as a lunch lady and had to take a job as a janitor on the night shift because she took off to go on Survivor - when in reality she had actually taken the night shift job because it paid more money. Mark Burnett was going to give her a check for $50,000.00 and then it came out after the reunion show that Denise had lied about the whole lunch lady demotion thingy.

I like Bob probably the best (he's pretty good at the comps & will probably be good when he has to stratagize)

Sugar would be 2nd most liked (5 times to exile & getting out Ace - she needs to step up in the challenges though)

Chrystal & Kenny are next because they have each other's backs and are really working well as a team - I wouldn't be surprised if Chrystal starts kicking it in the challenges when it's individual.

Matty & Randy are next because Matty is good looking, Randy makes good TV & they're both good at the challenges.

Don't care for either Corine or Suzie.

Lex, I think the onion is just a three dimensional totem pole.. in the Onion.. Susie is that dry husky skin that flakes off easily..

Like:
Bob because of how hard he has worked and how well he has done in the challenges. But he has not shown much in the way of game play as yet. He is definitely playing UTR. To win, he will have to step up and play the game at some point. He made a mistake in making the comment about regretting his previous vote, when the vote he did not make was against Susie. She would have to be very dumb not to pick up on that. Even if it was not the deciding factor in how she voted that night, it might have an influence in the future.

Randy because I get a real kick out of himand his "down home" persona, which I suspect is a great big put on. I did not much like him at the beginning but he has kind of grown on me. Last week though, he was acting a little cocky. That could come back to haunt him. He better not get the idea that he is control of the game. We know no one is ever in control of the game.

Matty I like because of his competitiveness and his personality. Jury's out on how well he is going to do.

Sugar because she is sweet and definitely and underdog, but she probably made a mistake in voting off Ace, but it may pay off in the long run, because let's face it, he was going to get that idol from her eventually. If she uses it correctly, the idol could keep her around for awhile.

Crystal because I just like her. Don't really know why. She has been a disappointment in the physical challenges, but the disappointment is our own fault because of our high expectations of her. Being a good runner does not necessarily translate into being good at other physical challenges. And she saved herself or Kenny this week by getting Susie to vote with her. And I like her loyalty to Kenny when the easy thing would have been to go along and vote off Kenny and save herself one more week.

Kenny for playing the game with desperation because he knows how close he came to going home. If the merge does come, he is going to be in constant danger, if it does not come, he should be good for a couple of weeks at least.

Like less:

Corrine is making a common mistake in Survivor and the other reality shows. She got pissed off at Susie for the comments about putting her name down. Now she is fixated on getting her out. She has let herself be distracted by personal feelings. Funny thing about this sort of incident. They never think about the fact that they too have considered putting down other people's names and would probably be shocked if someone acted the say way they do about it.

Susie has made the mistake of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, especially in relation to Corrine. She just seems to have no idea how people are going to take her comments. Her switch this week might be a great move or a terrible one. Remains to be seen. If a merge comes this week, it puts her in the position of being the swing vote between the two teams. But it only helps if she chooses the right side. And she will be low man on the totem pole whichever side she goes with. If the merge does not come, it puts her in a strong position with her tribe.

Charlie? I am like several others. I can't even place him. Has he done anything?

When it comes right down to it, there are none I really dislike. My dislikes are all gone.

Who I would like to win?

Bob because I love a surprise ending and I just have to root for the older guy if he is a good player. I am waiting for him to make a great game move.

or

Randy because I think he is playing the smartest game.

Okay, I'll put this in this thread instead of the wrong thread! I don't like Randy. I think his ego is getting more and more out of control. I hope he doesn't make it much further. I think he has a huge mean streak in him.

Like:
Bob - he has a lot going for him
Randy - he's annoyingly funny
Marcus - thought he'd go farther

Middle:
Corinne - haven't seen enough of her to know one way or the other
Sugar - not good a comps, cries a lot and is easily mislead...but she seems nice
Matty - no opinion either way

Dislike:
Crystal - always has that "I'm going to paste you one" look on her face. Her performance in the comps is awful and her attitude sucks
Charlie - a bit whiney
Susie - over estimating her importance in the game
Ken - something about him bugs me

I agree with you on Ken. The further he goes the more he becomes convinced of his own genius. Perhaps he is a genius, I don't know, but I would like to see more action and less talk out of him...he is excelling at the "outsmart" part of the game (so far) but he's been very lucky. Same with Crystal. I think she's been the beneficiary of Ken's manipulations. Together they are rather good at it. Don't like either one (sorry, I'm just of fan of people who PLAY the game...not sit around camp waiting for something to happen...I realize that the mental aspect is just as if not more important than the physical one...but I like the physical part).

Sugar has been lucky in that she has had the advantage of the HII for so long. When she ceases to be useful for the purposes of others she will have to cough it up. She will be lucky if she manages to go much farther.

Corinne/Bob/Charlie...who are you? Are you on this season? Hope that changes with the merge.

Matty...would love to see him be successful but he hasn't formed any strong lasting alliances. Unless he teams up with the other side at the merge he's an easy out.

What Lyn said about Susie.

And you already know my opinion about Randy. It hasn't changed since I had my two cups of very good coffee. Still don't like him. If I was in Africa I would take my coffee cup and put it right under his nose where he could smell this divine brew (Flavia) and then yank it away from him. That's truly not liking someone. He sets my teeth on edge.

Susie and Sugar seem to be disliked by the other players, but they both came through in the fire-building competition.
I think they are both playing a better game than their teammates are giving them credit for.
Am I the only one here who likes Susie? And Sugar, too?

I like Sugar and Susie is growing on me. I don't know why, but I dislike Matty. There is something that looks phoney about both his smiles and frowns. Even his "wild" dance seemed phoney to me. As if he is acting the part.

I like Kenny but am just lukewarm about Chrystal and Bob. I cannot stand Randy and am beginning to dislike Coreen.

I like Sugar, not so fond of Susie, but not fond of Randy or Corinne, either.. or Crystal.. Susie at least showed the smarts to switch up when needed and she won immunity..

Now that we're onto eliminations of people who will be part of the jury, the smart move would be for original Kota people to let the Fang people pick off the other Kota members, so they have a favorable jury. Then keep Susie or Crystal around as the person to go up against in the F2.

I like Sugar, Kenny and Bob. I'm ambivalent about Susie and Matty... they don't rub me either way. I really, really, really intensely dislike Corinne, Randy and Crystal.

OK Randy took a nose dive off my likability chart this week.

I missed Kenny's gay slurs about Charlie. I was doing some other things while the show was on. What did he say? I am disappointed. I have liked Kenny.

Actually, Susie went up for me this week. At least she did not make any stupid remarkds. At least if she did, they were not aired.

I loved her and Sugar being the only ones that could make the fire this week. Randy made the conscending remark about them being useless and not being able to do it.

Of course he has not been in camp with her for awhile and probably did not realize she had learned to do that, and Sugar has been on Exile seveal times having to make her own fire.

Did they all think she was just sitting over there all cold and miserable?


I know Susie and Sugar have voted against their alliance, but when you consider they were both low man on the totem pole and they knew it, I do not have a problem with their "disloyalty." Their alliance would have voted either of them out without a moment't thought when the time came.

We have all heard their plans for Susie and Sugar. They were cannon fodder. Of course their new alliance views them the same way, but at least they are not condecending to them.

You know, the only thing I heard about Kenny making any kind of remark about gays was his vote against Charlie...it was something like "its not because you are gay or anything." Now, in my mind, that probably does mean that Kenny has something against gays, but is that a slur? Perhaps there is more content that I haven't heard. (I just thought it was a stupid, ill-advised remark.)

Kenny's remarks about Charlie weren't shown on TV (other than making a point of saying he wasn't homophobic during the vote); apparently Randy and Susie told Charlie about them when the first merge happened.

Oh, okay. That kind of surprises me. I wouldn't pick Kenny as a homophobe. Now Randy, that's another story!

I don't feel nearly as strongly (like or dislike) about any of these survivors, not nearly as much as many in past seasons.

Bob is the one I like best. Randy is making the show funny and interesting for me, in real life I wouldn't be friends with him though.

Matty is good in challenges, but I don't really like him. There is something about him that doesn't make me excited to see him.

I don't think we got to know the winning tribe very well before some of them were gone.

Sugar is ok.

I still want to see Corinne being the biggest B, as Jeff and Corinne herself said she was.

Oddly enough, I just posted in the Ep9 thread, here's the piece I wrote of my thoughts in regards:

"I like Kenny myself, wouldn't mind seeing him win. Just hoping he doesn't get too eager & flaunting his skills, to find his torch snuffed. Also hoping BIGTIME that homophobic comments he allegedly made according to Charlie's interview weren't true & just paranoid backbiting that comes as part of the game. Those people started out as strangers, not BFFs, and they're going to whisper whatever would best 'press buttons' to whomever they are whispering. So, I'm holding my thoughts on the alleged homophobic comments until we hear from all sides once the game is concluded."

From Merrysea: "... apparently Randy and Susie told Charlie about them when the first merge happened."

Yeah, hearing nasty acting Randy especially was doing the 'tattling' just makes me think he would be pressing any button he could reach. So I'm still convinced to wait until all the stories come out.

I can't stand:
SUGAR, Kenny, Crystal, Susie

I'm really hoping Matty or Bob or even Corrine pull this one out for the win... Anyone but the previous four.
