I think ____ will win because. . .
Tabbyking | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 11:03 am     LOL, about osten.... i think SANDRA will win because, even though she has an angry mouth sometimes, she works hard, got them a great start on day one and has shown she can be both cunning and a little evil (letting christa take the blame for the fish). i am wondering about a secret sandra/jon alliance sometimes. didn't he also know about the fish and that sandra threw it? i swear sandra said jon was with her or saw her do it, or she told him about it...why wouldn't he tell on her? |
Gina8642 | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 11:57 am     I think Darrah will win because she has done absolutely nothing the entire show. She is likely to do well in the remanining challanges because they tend to favor small athletic woman. She is likely to win in the end, because she has been such a bump on a log she's offended no one. I believe MB feels zero obligation to show anything about a borring player if he doesn't feel like, even if they win the show - as seen with Vecepia and Jenna M. So the fact that we know zero about her or her strategy says nothing about whether she wins or not. Am I happy Darrah will win? - no! I think she will be the lamest winner yet. I don't see her as an underdog - I see her as boring. MB, IMO, is clearly more interested in keeping the shows interesting via twists, turns, odd merges, and coconut challanges, then he's interested in having an interesting winner. I also predict an Amber win in All Stars for the same reason. |
Crossfire | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 12:11 pm     Who's Amber? |
Amchess | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 12:23 pm     I hope Sandra |
Allietex | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 06:58 pm     I am not a Darrah fan. I find her bland and uninteresting. However, this is a game. Some people play it one way and some another. Some play it by being non-threatening and not offending others. Think about how hard that is to do out there. Just winning a challenge can make you enemies. Not winning a challenge can make you enemies. Just saying the wrong thing at the tribal council can get you in trouble. Then there is the expected reaction of the other survivors. Unless you are up against a complete jerk, the do-nothing tag works against you. Nope, I don't think it is that easy to do nothing and "fly under the radar." I can live with Darrah winning more that I can Jon. I admit he is a good player, but I just cannot like him. Even without the grandma stunt, I find him smug, arrogant and hateful. I can't wait to see the smirk knocked off his face. All that said, of the ones left, I am rooting for Christa. |
Essence | Tuesday, December 02, 2003 - 07:14 pm     Allietex, great post. I completely agree, that's why I don't mind an UTR player winning the game. To me they are just as much a part of the game as the ones who are boistrous and always in your face. (I don't care much for Christa though, so I can't join you in rooting for her.) |
Serate | Wednesday, December 03, 2003 - 08:57 am     RUPERT! *sigh* I think that Lil and Darrah deserve the win the least so I'm sure it will be those 2 in the final with Darrah a possible favorite because of Lil being an Outcast. And if it IS those two in the finals the only reason I'll watch is to see the reaction when JP asks the most waited for question in Survivor history: What did you think of Jon's lie? |
Texasdeb | Wednesday, December 03, 2003 - 04:49 pm     Darrah is the most UTR player so far. Vecepia at least got 1 on 1 camera time & was shown working for alliances that would take her to the end. Jenna got camera time because initially she worked her sex appeal & her need for the $$ (yes, her mother was really terminally ill & has since passed away). I do not want a Darrah win but see it as a real possibility. This season's had the most interesting personalities. UTR is working for Darrah but IMO only the smaller physically non-threatning people can pull this one off. |
Curlyq | Saturday, December 06, 2003 - 09:22 pm     I think Jon will win simply because the Survivor winners have always been the players I least wanted to win, with Ethan being the only exception. I predict the jury will give him the win because they'll say he played the most strategic game and they admired how he managed to fool everyone. Plus, anyone who takes Jon to the final 2 will make the jury angry at him/her for voting each of them out in favor of Jon, so they'd probably give Jon the vote out of spite. Sure hope I'm completely wrong! |
Puzzled | Saturday, December 06, 2003 - 10:14 pm     Darrah certainly wasn't playing under the radar this week--she won both challenges and marked herself as a person to be reckoned with. The two people most likely to win the remaining challenges are Darrah and Burton, so I'd guess that one of them will be the next to go. |
Naja | Sunday, December 07, 2003 - 08:51 am     Even tho I am a Sandra fan and wish for her to win, I have a feeling Jon will win. AND, every season right after I admit in public who I am rooting for, they get the boot. I mean EVERY time. So forgive me fellow Sandra fans, I may have just sealed Sandra's fate this week |
Tabbyking | Sunday, December 07, 2003 - 10:16 am     well this isn't who i wanted, but i had a dream last night. i was walking home over the pass. now this pass is almost 50 miles long, and i don't know why i was walking, but dreams have their own way of happening! anyway, i had just reached the summit and i heard a vehicle pull over a little way behind me and someone called my name. i turned around and there was a huge van--sort of a combination between a large church 15-passenger van and what a hummer van would look like. (and hummer, please don't make one, is my suggestion!) i ran back to the van, but the sun was in my eyes and i couldn't see who was in it. i went around to the passenger side and jon and burton opened the door for me-and it wasn't a sliding door, but a massive grey metal one. i knew it was them, but they looked different. for one thing, burton had long straight hair with quite a bit of grey in it, and jon's hair was all medium brown and not so curly. both were very nice. i knew that i knew the driver of the humvan because i had recognized the voice that called out to me, but have no idea who it was in real life. we start to travel and the guys are talking that they are going to the finale for survivor in a day or so. we stop at a bar-peepee station-convenience store partway down the pass, which isn't there in real life, either. it has christmas lights and fake log siding and antlers over the door with some panties thrown on the tips. jon tells me they are final 2 because i told him we 'all know it's you 2', so fess up. he says they are. but we all know jon is a liar, so i get burton alone as he comes down a wooden ramp from the john. i wonder, fleetingly, if he has washed his hands, but since it has nothing to do with the story, i let it go... i tell him i know he and jon are final 2 and he smiles and says they are. i also tell him that i won't tell, but does he know if he or jon is the winner? he says he doesn't, but i tell him, "it's not that so many people out there might want to vote FOR you as it is people who might vote "AGAINST" jon...so you probably win, if you really are in final 2. he gets a big smile on his face, so i am pretty sure he is really in final 2 with jon and is pretty much guaranteed to be the winner. then a lady highway patroller comes in and i overhear that there has been an accident on the pass and the pedestrian (what is it with people walking over a 50-mile pass these days?!) has lost his legs. a 'replacement driver' of the humvan comes over and it is a guy i know in real life. he says he is taking the humvan over the pass, just shy of my town and he can give me a ride. we get into the humvan and start to pull across the highway and i hear someone shouting at us. i look and there is the guy with his legs crushed in the dirt center divider. he is pissed cause no one is helping him. i ask the driver about emergency services and the highway patrol lady...and he said help had been called, but he was not taking burton and jon past the scene because he didn't want to upset them. i wondered why it was okay for me to see it. then i recalled i was an e.m.t. and this was a scene i really didn't want to handle, so luckily just as i was going to get out of the humvan, an ambulance and firetruck pulled up. my driver-friend's name in real life is robert burns, and the only remaining survivor's name we can make from those letters is b-u-r-t-o-n. and i think the poor guy with crushed legs was due to my waking up and having my huge cat on my legs, which were asleep and aching. now, do i want him to win? nope. but that's what my dream told me. well, that and to get the damn cat off my legs. |
Hermione69 | Sunday, December 07, 2003 - 05:16 pm     Tabby, your dream was priceless! ROFL! |

Please be mindful of those who do NOT want to know the potential winners of this game and confine mentions of those to the area marked "SPOILERS". Thank you <IL> |
Tabbyking | Monday, December 08, 2003 - 12:10 pm     sorry, i posted about last year's betting and did not mention any names from this year in my post. oh well. at least my nightmare can stay LOL |
Pamplemousse | Monday, December 08, 2003 - 07:57 pm     i also would like to see sandra win. hey slightly off topic, but if rupert is off doing the all star show, how will he participate in the finale on sunday? he is on the jury so he has GOT to be there |
Tabbyking | Monday, December 08, 2003 - 10:16 pm     allstar ends three days before the finale from what i have read on other posts. |
Kappy | Thursday, December 11, 2003 - 08:25 pm     I am currently predicting Sandra and Jon in last place with Darrah coming in third. And I honestly think it will be a toss-up between the two in the vote. I don't see a landslide for anyone in this group simply because juries never think the way we think they will. As for Rupert ~ how skinny will the man be after participating in another Survivor so soon and then coming right back for this finale?! Can't wait to see him! |
Puzzled | Friday, December 12, 2003 - 06:07 am     Of the four left, Darrah and Sandra are the most likely to win the endurance challenge, and then it will depend on who the winner takes with them. So, depending on who's booted next, they'll have the choice of each other, or Jon, or Lil. I think Sandra would win against Jon or Lil. Darra against Jon or Lil, I dunno. |
Texasdeb | Friday, December 12, 2003 - 04:48 pm     Unless Darrah wins the next IC, I predict she is 4th place. If she wins her 4th IC, I think they'll group up to plank Sandra because of her popularity with the jury. I see both Jon & Lil making F3. So here goes how I think the Jury will vote in different F2s: Sandra/Jon Ryan - Sandra Rupert - Sandra Tijuana - Sandra Christa - Sandra Burton - Jon Darrah/Lil - who knows but it won't matter. Sandra/Lil Ryan - ? Rupert - Sandra Tijuana - ? Christa - Sandra Burton - Sandra (think this will be hard for him since there will be no more deserving male) Darrah - Lil Jon - Sandra Darrah/Jon Ryan - Darrah Rupert - Darrah (He'll respect her IC wins) Tijuana - Darrah Christa - Darrah? Burton - Jon Sandra - Darrah Lil - Jon Darrah/Lil Ryan - Darrah Rupert - Darrah Tijuana - Darrah Christa - ? Burton - Darrah Sandra - ? Jon - ? |
Texasdeb | Friday, December 12, 2003 - 05:25 pm     Just in case: Sandra/Darrah Sandra's votes: Rupert,Christa, Darrah's votes: Ryan,Tijuana,Lil Jon & Burton's votes will determine the winner. Jon/Lil Jon's votes: Christa,Burton,Sandra Lil's votes: Ryan,Rupert,Tijuana,Darrah |
Serate | Monday, December 15, 2003 - 11:16 am     Sandra because I watched the finale and she won. |
