ITA - personality aside, Rob is the strongest player. They could have all banned together (with the exception of Amber, of course) and voted him out. I still don't trust Rob as far as Rupert goes. I think he will want to eliminate his only competition soon. I am thinking that Tom is still there because they all secretly want to be up against him. He has done nothing in this game and anyone would win going up against him.

It looks like most agree that Rob has played the all around best game to this point. The 3 jury members that he "led" the evictions of will most likely be votes in favor of whoever else would be up against Rob in F2 (that's if Rob even makes F2). The only way Rob can win this thing is to change & let someone else be the one calling "his" shots. I personally don't think he can pull it off - his ego is too big.

I know the 1st three jury members (and probably the next three) were angry at Rob for rallying up their demise. But, come judgement day they should realize that it took the strongest player to control the tribes. He certainly has been the strongest in terms of manipulating others, rallying the troops and dominating in the challenges.

One thing I would like to add about WHO is playing the game the best..... Well...looking at this game from Rupert's point of view for one thing.... I think , and I know Rupert must think, that Rupert is playing the game MUCH better this time around. Rupert found out last go round, that being too vocal and physical would place a BIG target on his back. Even with Rupert totally toning down his normal competitiveness and opinions, he STILL is considered Rob's biggest competiton by some. How else could Rupert have played the game better? If he approached anyone about switching from an alliance with Rob, he would be taking a HUGE risk, and would have been voted out before now probably. He is doing as well as can be expected, in my opinion. If he fails to "step it up" now, then it will be Rupert's own fault when he gets voted out. NOW is the time for Rupert to show his strength by winning the immunity challenges from here on out. It is his only hope to stay in the game.

I don't think he's played the best game to this point at all. If that were the case then three jury members wouldn't feel as they do about him. As far as the others not voting him off, they all feel they've got a solid deal with him. Or, they're afraid to cross him. We'll certainly see soon. If anything, I am looking forward to seeing how it all ends. LOL!

Yeah....ends being the operative word here. This edition of Survivor feels like The Guest Who Wouldn't Leave, to me

More to say but I want to get out to this GORGOUS day we are having here. I think at this point everyone is using each other, no one has played this particular Survivor nicely, except for (who else) Ethan. Rob has just been more open and bragging about it. But I also think he has worked harder, played smarter, and of the players left by far the most deserving to win, versus doing all the work and setting up Amber to get the bux as is likely happening (ShiiAnn saw it, but no one else there seems to). The only thing I have a big problem with is his big time lying. That Lex move was big time stupid, and likely to come back to bite him in the butt, but who knows. If it ends up Rob and Amber as the F2 then it should make for an interesting jury questioning IMHO. Well, I have an errand I have to run in Canton tomorrow or Sun...I'll keep my eyes open for the Mariano's lolol. All kidding aside, his brother looked SOOO familiar to me. Wonder where he works, or if I've crossed paths with him, since they are so close to me.

Depends on the definition of "nicer". Rob's comments about how he "snaked" Lex, "the dumb***" who saved his girl, didn't come off as particularly nice. I think he's just gotten a little less screen time as the others have been making more noise lately. It feels like Rob has spent the last few shows just laying back canoodling with Amber and waiting for the end game while the others run around all paranoid and complaining about each other. I'm curious as to what might have gone through Rob's mind when he saw Shii-Ann had written Amber down as the one she thinks will win this game. Did it give him something to think about, even for a fleeting moment?

LOLOL @ Sunshyne! But unless waving out my convertable would be poorly perceived I think I'm safe...come to think of it I'm usually waving BACK at the boyz (or pretending I didn't see them) hehe . And good question Curly...wonder what they ALL thought. Of course Rob probably think he's set cause 1) he totally believes he is in control--I don't think that's an act at all. And 2) worse case scenario I think he sees himself with Amber after and reaping the rewards either way. And for all we know they have a deal. I don't care how much the bosses say you can't split the winnings, I'd like to see that enforced. Impossible. And they've had ample pillow talk time to discuss it lol.
