Maybe that is the regret- they feel so bad for him that theyvote him out to be with his family. He would regret the lie then!

That would be awesome, Kaili, but I don't see them being smart enough to do that ...

Christa & Sandra should have gotten rid of one of the men, imo. What the heck? I will be so disgusted if Jon comes in 2nd place.

I second your whole post, Denecee. I wish they'd let us in on their plan, a bit more would've done it.
Now I think these girls might assume they'd have Da in the pocket. But what if there's another coup to get rid of Christa or Sandra?

DJ and Chy - Oh how right you both were. I think I was so stunned at actually, guessing what jon was up to, I got carried away with my thought process (lol). I warned you, I usually only get it right once a season, so I'm absolutely sure now that my guess on how the rest of this will play out is doomed. But I should have known that when I typed in that Darrah who and Lil will actually make it to the end.

Jon might win this game... Yeah, now I see it, they're copying the Joe Schmo show! The tv fans think they're watching a reality show, but it's all fake, when will they find out?!?

Jon could win this game if:
1) He is F2 w/Lil (even then his chances are little)
2) Hell freezes over
3) cows fly
4) farts don't stink
5) Grandmas quit loving their grandkids.

I wrote this earlier today and it somehow disappeared, but I'll bet they introduce Jon's grandmother during the live Finale!

I posted yesterday about Jon, not in this thread, and it disappeared (I think) And I know it wasn't moderateable (if that's a word)!!

Anyway, I'll say it again, why did these people believe Jon about his grandmother?!! When I was watching the show, I knew immediately that he was lying. I mean, really, it was either his buddy or Granny that he would invite to travel all the way to an unknown location for a competition? Especially a sick granny that he was worried about?

I think that sooner rather than later, the others will figure this out and Jon will be so gone....

True it seemed unbelievably obvious on the sho...but the show was making sure we, the viewers, knew we were seeing the "big lie" that had been oh-so hyped for oh-so long. If we had no idea there was a lie in store for us, would we have known? (Actually, I'd like to think we would because that was some god-awful acting!!!)

Ok folks, while Jon has done something that many consider way over the line and a bit sick, I need to ask folks to not post that they want to kill him, string him up, etc. No violence against others please.

Also, a reminder of no name calling. We can address actions all we want (someone can make a done mistake) but out of that we can't know they are dumb. That is a judgment about the person, not their actions. Attack the behavior, not the person.

thanks

Don't know where to post this, but since people are talking about it in this thread:

First, I don't remember any mention about Jon saying granny being sick "before" he left for the game.
And two, why are we assuming they were told that their love ones have to compete in a challenge? At the moment, I don't recall every "Visits by love ones" in the Survivor games being vigorous physical competition.

****Don't get me wrong, I do think it was a horrible thing for Jon to lie about his granny's passing. (If I'd ever done that to either of my Chinese grandmothers, I'd probably be disowned by my family instantly!) I'm not trying to say anything to save his face. But I also do not think we ought to make that lie worse than it actually was--as if that's possible....

Have to go now, someone please fill in the blank for me. Either about Jon's whole "lie" or past visits by F/F during the games.

Chy - I thought in the last Survivor, loved ones had to eat disgusting things? Personally, I think that was "physically vigorous"!

recently the loved ones have been doing the competition. On Survivor 6 they had to eat disgusting food. Last year they worked with their loved one to complete a task (Matt won that one, but agreed to give away his time with his mom to the rest of the tribe who then got to spend an hour with their loved ones - a great example of his unselfishness and i thought should have gotten him the win last year).

Well we can be fairly sure Jon will not be going home this week. To many references to him going in the trailers.

Jon will never win the game because they will vote for ANYONE other than Jon to win, imho.

Jon can win against:

Burton - Rupert won't let Burton win.
Darrah - He played better.
Christa - She is not well liked.
Lil - If he pushes the outkast argument and points out she didn't "outwit" anyone.

Jon cannot win against:

Sandra.

Watching the teaser for next week it was clear his hubris is starting to get the best of him. He's throwing that 'Granny card' in the other players' faces with no shame. I'm thinking its about to backfire.

Cpm... on Dec. 2nd, when your post first came up, I agreed with your thoughts. But after the show tonight, I'm changing my mind.

Darrah is coming up from behind on the game-playing department. She just happened to start her winning streak at the perfect time. I wonder if Jon could still win over her at this rate.

I still wish Christa were not sent home. Now I'd like to see Jon going before Sandra.

I can't stand Lil or Darrah!! If Sandra cant win I want Jon too.
He was very funny tonite. I even thought he was debonair(sp?) at dinner!

Jon can win against Sandra because she sabataged the groups food supply and then stood by and let Christa take the blame. By voting time they will have figured that much out.
