Fruitbat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:03 am     I am not getting the signifigance of same clothes vs not same. When they leave for a challenge they could change clothes. What are you getting from this? |
Hermione69 | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:11 am     Fruitbat, sometimes if vidcaps are found where they are in the same clothes that they wore to challenges, it be deduced from their demeanor as to whether they won or lost the challenge. That's one thing, maybe. BTW, I hope you are right that Deena and not Jenna is the F2 female! Thanks, Alaginger for your hard work. |
Alaginger | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:43 am     Hermione.......You're Welcome!!! (By the way, I had asked you a question somewhere about Christy, but now I can't remember where it is....so if you answered it, can you answer it again here?)Question: Will Christy be at a disadvantage in the pole-standing because of balance problems for the deaf??? Fruitbat .... Hermione was right. Before I saw the caps this morning, I thought Roger was wearing the same outfit in his camp picture at the CBS video that he would be wearing at the pole-standing, and I was thinking they were pin-pointing a winner for us. With the still shots, I can see that it wasn't the same clothes at all. Actually, at this point I think Deena is going to win that challenge.....and I think the picture of Roger on the pole is showing us that he is wobbling, and then dives off......I hope so! |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:50 am     Thanks, and I lean toward Deena winning the challenge as well or Matt, both are highly motivated and I think Roger feels more secure. |
Alaginger | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:52 am     Fruitbat....just a "heads up". When Dave dives off his pole you can see Deena next to him in the picture, and the two poles next to that are already empty. According to the pictures that have depicted where other Survivors are standing, the two empty poles would have been Matt's and Rob's who have already left the challenge. If you need that picture lifted here, just ask and I'll go get it............ |
Hermione69 | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 06:59 am     Alaginger, I don't think there is a one-size-fits-all answer for that question. Many deaf and hard-of-hearing people have poorer equilibrium than their hearing counterparts, but it is not a given. For myself, the answer would be yes, I would be at a disadvantage. My hearing loss affects my equilibrium significantly. I had to "learn" to walk all over again at 4 years of age when I lost my hearing, and even did it just like a baby does, by crawling first, etc. My doctor told my mom that I would never be able to ride a bike or roller skate, both of which I can do, but definitely more precariously than others, LOL. I cannot ice skate or ski and when I walk downhill, it helps to have someone to hold onto. You should have seen me in my drinking days. Oh my heck, my balance was the first thing to go. I looked positively inebriated after one beer. I shudder to think about what I looked like when I was really inebriated, which was often in those days, LOL! Christy did so well on the log rolling that I don't know if her hearing loss affects her balance, but the log rolling was for a significantly short time period as well, and she may have pulled it off through sheer determination. Go Christy! Well, I have to go... family gathering in progress. You guys have a great weekend!! |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 07:07 am     Alaginger, I did look at those photos. I forgot about that when I was thinking Matt could win. He must have lost his balance rather than giving up. I think he knows he is not very secure though better now that he has his new team. There is so much info in the spoilers this time I lose track of some important details. I am fuzzy on who Chillone said would go after Alex and I am too lazy to go back in this thread or over to sux to find out. Care to recap? |
Alaginger | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 07:09 am     Wow......what awesome insight. Thanks for sharing, Hermione!!! |
Alaginger | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 10:39 am     All I know is that Heidi is expected to leave at Ep. 11. As far as I know, #8, #9, #10 and #12 are up for grabs depending on who you believe or don't believe makes up the F4.....and there is a lot of controversy over that. Everyone thinks Christy is in F4. Most believe Butch is in F4. Toss up between Matt and Dave in F4. Toss up between Jenna and Deena in F4. That leaves Roger and Rob to fit in there somewhere, and a lot think Rob goes really far, but not to F4. Anybody else got a better recap.......mine doesn't say too much that is definite (not that anything is definite with Survivor!!!) |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 05:43 pm     Thanks. That is what I remember or at least you comfirmed I was not nuts for not registering on the exact order. I like that there is some confusion. I want Deena to win this. Matt would be ok too. I want to have some surprizes or at least not be sure of the outcome and that seems to be in place. I detest spoilers but if that is what is afoot I am eager to work with it. Just hoping for another Marquesas next time, without the religious faction. MB seems to favor throwing in a Christain to agitate things. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 06:36 am     I actually emailed TDT with my buff comparison pictures and he wrote me back and was very nice, but he does think the red buffs are for real and that there will definitely be a merge. He explained why and all. Alaginger, the only thing I would add to your analysis of the F4 above is that, in most cases, Matt is heavily favored over Dave in C1's spoiler because Matt has significant weight loss spoilers and Jenna is heavily favored over Deena because of the name and age factor in C1's spoiler. So most people seem to think it will be Christy, Butch, Matt and Jenna. There are a number of people (me included) hoping that his source wasn't as clear on the actual order, much like what happened with his first four/five boots, but C1 swears he is more positive about the F4 order than he was about the earlier ones. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 07:18 am     I suppose that they could have colored the buffs to make them stand out because they were photographing poorly. They are clearly colored unless the dye ran all over everyones forehead! |
Alaginger | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 07:59 am     Do you think there is a possibility that some of the red buff pictures are colored and some aren't. Like, maybe when they meet up at the new site and while they are on the poles, the buffs are colored.....but later they are given new buffs and we see some close-up shots of confessionals where maybe at that point they are actually wearing the new red buffs. If so, that means there is a twist in between there somewhere that we are missing.......just food for thought! |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:10 am     I am hoping you are correct. I would like to see something we are unable to figure. Those buffs were definately colored and the reason is a twist of some kind or just making the video clearer. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:17 am     I've thought about too, but don't know how it would work. Hmmm. Unless Fruitbat's scenario of how they handle immunity. Last one standing wins it for their tribe, but they don't know that in advance? Or maybe they started off coloring them just to try to fool us and then decided they didn't care. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:19 am     Or they are using old diary footage from before the merge but it fits with their plan so have colored the buffs. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:44 am     good one, Fruit! |
Jeep | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:50 am     I think the colored buffs are just a ploy by MB to keep us off track. At TDT, the photo of Jenna during the immunity challenge shows a red buff and you can clearly see the Survivor logos all over it. I think it's the logos that have been colored out to make us think he's pulling a fake murge again, when actually it really happens. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 09:50 am     It seems obvious now that Roger does not win IC. I watched the promo on TV this morning and he is flailing his arms in a way that indicates he lost balance. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:08 am     or they have 3 tribes so they had to color 2/3 of them! not that i think that with so few players left. just rambling!! |
Grannyg | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 05:40 pm     Hermi, where did you say Snewser posted his picks? I can't remember. Thanks. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 05:54 pm     http://www.survivornews.net/snn.php?sid=spoilers but he never posts until 2 p.m. EST, sometimes later, on the day of the show. |
Pamy | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 07:45 am     Hermie...no good spoiler info today??? ps. my son and I start officially learning sign language this weekend! I can't wait. Did I tell you she has a deaf dog also? Our dogs loved her. |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 07:54 am     gives pamy the silent clap! (not to be confused with the STD "the clap"!) |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 08:07 am     Nothing really new to report, Pamy. Although some people think Shawna's post-boot interviews indicate even more than she and Alex must grow closer at Loser Lodge. I'm just biding my time waiting for Snewser... I'm a sheep! Baaaaaah. |
