Who screwed up the best so far?
I say Kim, the retired teacher in Boran (gold) tribe!
(It was she who suggested to dump the water.)
Someone mentioned that Kim redeemed herself by finding the lense to make fire, that was the other tribe. Not accurate, the Kim who thought they'd have water when they got to camp managed to slide under the radar for the rest of the first episode.
With 'survivors' like Kim and Clarence, Boran is definately the more entertaining tribe in my book.

I believe we have 2 Kim's in this year's tribes.
One in each tribe. This could be confusing for a while.

I hold all 8 people in the Boran tribe responsible for the water incidence because everyone has to pay attention to your most importance resource. Water. No one can let the least capable person in the tribe have that kind of an opportunity to make that decision with your number 1 most important resource.

At least they had the second Will use his nickname of "Bunky" during BBII.

I think Clarence did a really dumb thing and it became a focal point for the team and really distracts them.
I voted for Clarence to get voted off... (but then again, last year I voted my concience EVERY time...really thought about it and had my reasons, and EVERY TIME I was wrong,,,they voted by alliance... so don't don't think like me>

So who really told the truth Clarence or the Postal worker.......he's selfish as shown by the cherries and beans..she's coniving in that she knew she was the weakest link and dissed Clarence so everyone focussed on him....who wanted the beans first???

I guess I don't think it really matters who told the truth...they both did a dumb thing...Diane was on her feet looking fine when the team came back with the water-

I think Clarence was just dumb... when the cherry thing came up, he just wasn't thinking... he just popped another one in his mouth and was totally unaware of the others and what they would think...

I think they were both kind of hinky...left alone, and took advantage of the situation... maybe Diane knew her number was up and was trying to divert attention over to Clarence... and I think him tossing the can shows he knew it was wrong...they have literally NOTHING at their camp...even an empty can could be useful as a vessel or as a digging implement...

I just think just as Diane says she was unprepared for the elements... the heat, no water , etc, Clarence may not be prepared for the people stuff.

And lets face it that is what ultimately counts... they may keep him for his strength.. and clearly he knows he must be 100% on his best behavior, but stick a fork in him..as soon as strategy becomes more important than strength...he's done.

The consensus among people who have seen the Insider feeds is that Clarence was stupid, but really was telling the truth. Diane lied to try and turn Clarence into a scapegoat in a desperate attempt to keep herself from being booted.

i think clarence may have screwed himself... if he and his tribe dont become buddy buddy again i dont see clarence being in there for a long time.. most have them have even resorted to sayin that they only need him for the heavy challenges..

I think Clarence was done when he got there. It's extremely rare on Survivor that the strong survive. If you're too much of a threat (and you're not in a 'winning' alliance) you're out of there no matter what you do.

I don't see Clarence doing his fair share of work either, that'll wear on the others soon enough.
And Ethan (Boran) just ~has~ to drop the ball tonight in the blood drinking immunity challenge, he's a vegetarian and his being Jewish may not allow him to drink the blood either (unless the cow has "kosher" stamped on it's neck).
Remember when Kimmi's tribe had to have one person go twice in the wierd food eating competition? Well, since Boran is short one player, someone will have to drink blood twice tonight too, eh?

I can't wait to see if Ethan will do it too. I'm a vegetarian,but I'd have to at least try,for the team.
The thing about mamma Kim and the water,yeah,it was her idea,but not one person on that team had the intelligence to say,"Hey,you know that may not be too smart!" ROFL!!So,they can't really blame that on her,they were all really stupid with that move.

I think tonight's challenge is going to have a particularly high "no way" rate. I could just about imagine eating a bug, but drinking blood?!?!? No way. I wouldn't be surprised if a few just said no at the outset, and that would make it easier for others to say no too. I'm guessing five will refuse... anyone else want to guess?

If I had to do this I would think rare beef. Most of us have had beef medium rare at least. It is truly disgusting, to be sure, but I think, I think, <really hard to say> I would rather down a liquid than chew that large, crunchy, grasshopper thing Alisha had to eat.....or the raw brains Tina threw up or the slimy black inky snail deal that Kimmy chewed and swallowed. Down the hatch and you are done. No teeth involvement. That is a plus.

Having said all this. I would NEVER do any of this. I do not even walk up hills. In fact I don't even use the eliptical at the gym because it is just a sneaky stairmaster. They try and fool you, you know.

Like you've lost teeth? You've had blood in your mouth! Did you swallow it? Most likely! Soldier on, life is hard at times!!

You are too funny Fruitbat, I have to agree you have to watch those health nuts, they try to get you to do lots of sneaky things, I'm onto them though

Well I was shocked they all did it without much trouble. They all have stronger stomachs than me, mind you to even go on such a show you'd have to have stronger stomachs than me ;-).
