Elitist is a noble person and so is Guru on these banishment proceedings.

Elitist has made the offer to take OI's place in nominations. I am not sure what is going on with them.
Guru made the offer to be banished in someone else's place.

I think the Survivor cast members need to take some lessons. (oops another game mentioned..lol)

Twiggy,

It's interesting how people can interpret conversations (especially without visual clues) so differently. I was totally the opposite of you on the Interrogator/Elit RR one-on-one conversation.

I reacted to it exactly how I reacted to Michael's "thank you for the fish" speech. It was a bit too self-serving for me. I almost gagged.

The Interrogator/Elit "love-fest" made me want to vote for Elite in spite of his immunity. (JMHO)

Good point. Maybe I will go and reread.. Could this be some future strategy on Elitist's part?

I had the same take Thought...sorry Twiggs...

Yes!!!

I think it is strategy on his part...do it so he won't get votes next time. (JMO)

From his RR...
So my nominations are:

Guru - Hasn't been nominated yet and needs the experience to help him on his path of self-discovery.

Ocean Islands - Though I am still somewhat irritated at him, we worked well on both of the puzzles (along with AZ), really cranking out the answers. But I think he has dodged the bullet long enough, so he is my second nomination.

In the event that OI receives immunity - I would like to nominate Az - she is the only other person that has not been nominated for banishment.

Why would he vote for him then??

Odd he would vote for him then want to change places.

To me Elit is totally predictable . He's got his eyes on the prize . He's used to winning challenges and this is just one more.

One thing I find a little bothersome was Gator's bias against Ocean which could almost be interpreted as baiting. Did anyone else find that odd?

I didn't read that, but will go look again. hmmm.. Gator!

Now this is irony at its finest: All of a sudden Elitist supposedly has his eyes on the prize.

Now where have I seen something similar to that before?
LOL!

A sort of Richard-like gesture?

No, it's Spam's accusation of Guru. The irony is that she seemed close to Elitist who now seemingly fits that category.

Actually, if Elitist is asked, he'll admit he's here to win.

It's one thing to be there to win and admit it, it's another to be there to win and try to hide it.

It's pretty sad that none of you can let an honestly good gesture stand - instead you have to dissect it and see how it can be construed as a strategy, or bad behaviour.

And you say - gee spam, you didn't do that with Guru! With guru it was a string of behaviours I disagreed with, supported by his attacks on three people...

Elitist has done ONE thing... and I seriously doubt it was to get the pity vote

You are wrong about Guru. You know it too.

Well, I too have been impressed with the RRs. I am wondering how we all come to conclusions who is telling the truth and who is lying??

Some people say what Elitist is saying is nothing more than strategy, some say that Guru is faking it. Some say Merlin isn't being real. Interesting reading about what everyone seems to think.

Opinions abound. Another thing that abounds is that a lot of time is spent telling each other that our opinions are right, and everyone else's is wrong. I'm not saying everyone does thins--just saying it happens.

There are times it looks like (hey, maybe it isn't really the case) that there is a lack of respect for what someone else thinks in terms of opinions (factual statements are easier to prove or disprove). It also fels like to me (just me on this one--not speaking for anyone else) that we are both aiming comments to be personal in some cases.

Just like BB days (there was plenty of attacks there too) the person is attacked and not their actions. (equals calling someone stupid instead of a specific action being called stupid) JMHO

I look forward to hearing what the gamers have to say concerning exactly what they meant, since we are looking so closely and trying to figure it out on their behalf until that time.

Don't you think that both Elitist and Guru might think that these statements would be viewed as strategic by some of us?

I think they are both intelligent enough to think of that... and therefore come to the conclusion that they could receive votes because of these statements. If that is the case... I think they are both being sincere. Why else would they take such a risk?

I totally agree, Nor! I didn't see Guru say he'd come out, but I believe that BOTH OF THEM were saying that in the best interests of everyone involved...

Guru wants to prove he is N&IG, what better way than letting someone else win to show his eyes are off the prize?

Elitist really feels bad about the animosity between him and OI, so he says he'll trade places to make things cool again? (sort of like Kel and his razors??)

Or for whatever reason... I know Elitist pretty well, and I can't see him going that far for strategy - it would be too risky, honestly, that they might take him up on it!

Maybe Gu is doing it because the prizes don't matter. Maybe you stuck your foot in your mouth, Spam.

Tuk--it seems you've closed your eyes to the possibility she is right (or the possibility is right). That is something you'd call any of the rest of us for doing--just thinking only one option is possible.

Is it an issue of Spam saying it, or do you believe it isn't possible no matter who were to say it?(that is an honest question)

Tukuul

Ok, so the possibility that she is wrong doesn't matter?

We are going by someone's views who is obviously bitter. Even I have more insight than that.

Tuk, until we see the outcome, both of you opinions about Guru being real or strategy or any other player being real or strategy have potential to be true.

Some lend better to one side or the other. Other than Guru, it seems (IMHO) that E has had the most comments made about being real or about him just playing the game for the win/prizes.

Being bitter (if that is the case) doesn't automatically make a person's views wrong. It can affect them, sure. Just not automatic that they are wrong.

Both of you could be right (as far as one or the other). Is that true or not?

I look forward to when Guru comes out, because just like everyone else, his actions on this side will determine how "real" he was inside, IMHO. As I said, I believe that goes for all of them--not just Guru,

As they say, the proof is in the pudding. And just who the hell is "they"???

Lance, I agree with your statement that being bitter doesn't automatically make a person's view wrong.The bitterness came from somewhere. It didn't suddenly appear for no reason. Bitterness is cultivated just as love is cultivated.
Plant the seed and watch it grow baby!
How it grows depends on what you feed it and where you place it.

I always wanted to know who "they" were too Lance!
Them "They" people are really started to Pizz me Off! They have so much control!
I want to belong to the "they" people!
I might start to understand why I have to act like them.
