Luvmyjrt | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 07:02 am     Cpm: Re your post. Sandra has played this game well from the get-go. From trading in the village to IMHO, coming j-u-s-t close enough in all of the challenges to not seem the biggest threat. Sure, she tossed the fish -- I would have done it too! What loyalty does she owe her tribe (save for Krista)! Burton and Jon are egotistical players who stated that the women are riding their coattails and falling apart. Umhum, that's exactly what happened when he egotistically chose Jon for the Reward Challenge leaving those coattail riders back to thwart his "genius". Yeah, he's a real Mensa, that Burton! As for Jon, he reminds me of the rabbit in Frosty the Snowman and I just can't get that out of my head. Everytime he shows up on screen! Drives me nuts! Anyway, wanna talk about a coattail rider? Jon has done this all the way! Pretty sad when you feel you have to lie about a family member dying to stay in the game. He sabatoged every other tribe member during that challenge in getting time with their loved ones. Don't tell me he didn't sabatoge!!!! Just my opinion, but ...... |
Lorry | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 08:36 am     I do think Sandra is very clever, and playing the game quite well. Her little acts of sabotage have mostly been talk... and not so much action. Yeah, she tossed the fish... out of loyalty to Rupert... and for some reason, be it right or wrong, I can forgive her. JMO I hated the outcasts coming back, but that's the way the game was played this year, and I think the players have dealt with it quite well. I didn't get a feeling of anyone of them being deliberately malicious. Jon... there are no words for Jon... He has definitely added much to the game. He is the player you love to hate...lol If he wins... he wins. Personally I hope he gets the boot and Lil goes right after he goes. |
Tabbyking | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 08:57 am     i really don't want jon to win, but if he did, i wouldn't feel as if he had just sat there to win like jenna did. i may not have liked how he played the game, but he did play. that said, i have wanted sandra from the get-go and only disliked when she let christa take the rap for the fish. i would have felt better had she suggested 'production maybe did it to stir things up' or something. other than that, she has been tops with me...and tossed fish are nothing compared to 'throw-away grandma' |
Lorry | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 09:02 am     You said what I was trying to say TabbyKing.. and much better. I agree with you. ROFL at "throw-away grandma" |
Dee | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 10:41 am     I've liked Sandra since the first day when she was able to converse with the villagers and make some very shrewd bargains. She thought of just about everthing except bug repellent. (And Rupert was a genius for taking items from the other team's boat!) Sure she's lost her head a few times such as tossing fish but she's been THINKING all throughout the game - unlike some others! She's the one who saw Jon and Burton were a threat and so she kept trying to talk the other women into joining an alliance against the men. No one listened to her, though, until they finally got it together and voted out Burton. I hope she wins. |
Fabnsab | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 10:56 am     Sabotage is part of the game- there are no rules. I respect her for her loyalty to Rupert. She was hurting herself in the process by not having fish. If she would have said she did it, she would have been out that week. Sandra tells it like it is and is passionate about what she feels. Its a far cry from most reality show players who just want to be under the radar and popular enough to not get voted off. |
Kep421 | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 12:06 pm     It certainly would have been VERY interesting if Sandra had hidden all that stuff and then was actually booted....LOL...I can imagine Lord Burton casting a suspicious eye on Jon because he was the last one in the vincinity of the "stuff"... Now THAT WOULD BE ENTERTAINMENT!!! |
Allietex | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 12:37 pm     Lord Burton. Oh Kep, priceless! |
Cpmfinster | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 09:44 pm     If sabotage is part of the game so is... 1) Winning Immunity Challenges... 2) Strategizing... 3) Lying about a dead granny... 4) Bringing back a tribe of outcasts... 5) Voting out Rupert... |
Melfie1222 | Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 10:57 pm     Absolutely cpm... no one said Sandra is a saint... every player plays a different way. |
Maris | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 04:33 am     Yep Cpm they are all part of who ends up the winner in this game. Sandra has played this game very well. |
Texasdeb | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 03:09 pm     Sandra has been an active contributer to 1st the Drake's & then the joined tribe. If memory serves, she was never the weak link in any Drake team challenge. No - she hasn't proven successful in the ind. challenges. She did almost get that unscramble the word challenge though. I don't remember her being very good in any of the other Ind. challenges though & was for sure the main reason Christa,Burton & her didn't win that one RC. Mental game - she may very well have been the best (we'll see soon). |
Maris | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 03:18 pm     Her knowing Spanish and more importantly how to deal with the locals gave her team a big head start in the whole Survivor game and her gameplay continued to the end in terms of keeping the evicted survivors in her camp. She and Jon were the only two playing this game 24/7 but while she had an in your face attitude she only went after those players when she smelled their blood and knew it wouldnt damage her. I picked her to win this thing after the first episode and I hope she does it. I am ok with anyone winning this thing except Lil. |
Cpmfinster | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 03:27 pm     I do think Sandra has played a great game and I think she's going to win tonight. She's not my first choice, but, my choice never wins |
Texasdeb | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 04:23 pm     I so want a Sandra win tonight. I don't think Lil stands a chance. I don't see Darrah/Sandra as F2 because assuming there is a final IC, neither would take the other to F2 out of fear of not winning against them. Jon or Lil will for sure be one of the F2. I really doubt it will be the two of them at the end though because I think one of them will go as 4th place. If Sandra can just get to F2, I think she'll be taking the $$ to the bank. |
Fruitbat | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 04:41 pm     Sandra, Oh how I hope/wish she would win. |
Riviere | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 04:50 pm     I was perturbed at Sandra turning on Christa and wondered if her animosity with Jon wasn't a clever deep hidden alliance after that. Would be good seeing Sandra win. She's been more of a player for better or worse than the other gals! Plus she did it without rewards and whining and resorting to lies the way some guys got so far. I'd bet she gets Rupert's vote too. |
Pamy | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 05:41 pm     YES!!!!!! our karma is working!!!! go sandra!! |
Sunshyne4u | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 06:10 pm     I have NOT READ THIS THREAD.........but must comment as I am soooooooo steamed. SPOILERS should not have the NAME of SANDRA put in the title.....I was just going to read the Live Show posts and this has RUINED IT FOR ME! ** Once again, why cant people have respect for keeping spoilers in their place......THE SPOILER THREAD!! ** There has been a number of us who have asked nicely for people to have some class and stop RUINING this site. Now its happened again a SPOILER right in the TITLE OF THE THREAD!! and I just have to wonder WHY I even came here to this site. I wanted to read the LIVE show........but now WHY BOTHER? You've ruined it for me for the SECOND F*K*N year ** I dont mind chatting and reading but this second YEAR of having the END RUINED is just IT FOR ME!! And I am going to complain, It just isnt respectful to ignore the multiple requests throughout the season to NOT post spoilers Thread titles in the discussion area. |
Halfunit | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 06:13 pm     Whoa - Sunshyne - chill... this thread was started on 12/11... and it's not really a spoiler thread. It is how Sandra has played the game, not what happens to her. And as the mods always say, if you don't want to know what happens, don't log on until you've watched the show. |
Sisalou | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 06:20 pm     i wouldn't come anywhere near this place if i didn't want to be spoiled. Go Sandra!!!! |
Pamy | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 06:24 pm     We don't even know the winner yet!!!!!! Look at the times the posts were made!!!!!!! |
Juju2bigdog | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 06:30 pm     lol

Sunshyne4u | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 07:25 pm     WHY was it marked SPOILER then?? As I said I hadnt read ANY of this thread.......I have now come back to it AFTER I calmed down, turned the pc back on and finished reading the Live Show posts. ** NOW I see that it was a THEORY thread that was incorrectly marked SPOILER.......SIGH!! (all that ranting put my blood pressure UP!! Sorry to those who ended up reading the above post) |
Halfunit | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 07:29 pm     Sunshyne, it could have been perceived as a spoiler from THURSDAY'S show, as the date above indicates. Glad you've calmed down, lol. |
