Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains

[2861U2]

And I keep praying for a tie when they do a final 3 (Hoped maybe Russell would manage 1 vote this time and we might get a 4-4 tie with Pavarti and Sandra), cause I want to see how they would resolve it, and I think it would put an end to the final 3 for good.

I know it. I always wonder what would happen, especially on the handful of occasions when there's been 8 jury members. I mean, with 8 jury members, aren't they just asking for trouble? IMO, it should be a final two with seven jurors, always.

Just watched last night finally.
Russell getting zero votes is quite funny.
Pavarti probably did more to deserve the win than Sandra, but Sandra played it very well with the jury at final TC and I think that got her the nod.
I've commented every reunion show about how the women are way too made up and have looked better on the island than in studio. Although Pavarti looked quite good at the reunion. Jerri...kind of scary.

I don't believe it is possible for there to be a tie (final) vote on this show.

Or are you saying its all scripted?

I don't believe it is possible for there to be a tie (final) vote on this show.

With 9 votes and three people it could end up:

3 3 3

4 4 1

A tad schizophrenic today?

 

[deep]

schizophrenic - a possiblity, we are looking into it ( and so am I )

This thing was over before it began

there are spoilers out there from Oct 2009


do you think the live final show broadcast in May 2010 would put up a 4 4 1
vote?

or would they have the 1 Russell vote, re-vote to either Parv or Sandra

that is why in the partial quote you put up
I also wrote:

I also think this 3 person final is crap.

It shoud be a final 2.

There will never be a tie vote on the final show.

I heard Ellen Degeneres will be the next Survivor host.....

I was thinking Ryan Seacrest...god knows he does everything else, I'm beginning to think he's actually a cyborg.

I like deep's ex-Survivor idea, though I have no idea who might actually be good, though I can think of people who would surely be entertaining (hello, Coach?)

 

[Carek1230]

Allowing a tie to happen on the show would be such a let down to fans

i thought about Coach,
I have been a fan of him from day one.

I am not sure he would be a good host, I think his personal crusade for honor, and warrior-hood, and penchant for story telling might get in the way

Boston Rob could be ok, he seems to be popular with the fans
and he also seems to have a pretty even temperament

Sandra, what a disappointment....

Gunning for Russell to be voted out since day one? Yeah, she sure did that well ...damn she's annoying, cringeworthy.

Russell's a fool for not improving his relationship with people on the jury. Parvati is probably the greatest.

This is pretty interesting. It's a copy of the contract/list of rules the Survivors have to sign.

Survivor rules: the contract that details pay, tie-breakers, prohibited behavior, and more + reality blurred

 

[deep]

it says if it is a tie
at the final jury vote,

the producer can do whatever he wants.


but, I still say they would never put a tie on the air



this show is not as spontaneous as many are led to believe.

 

[Sicy]

I bet Russhole broke a bunch of those rules. /favortism.

Wow that was a good find Sicy, thanks for sharing. Interesting indeed.

So, Nicaragua is filming as we speak. I decided to feed my craving by downloading the three episodes I've never seen:

S3 - Back From Africa Special
S8 - America's Tribal Council
S9 - Episode Four



I also ran a poll over at Sucks for the top 40 players of all time (as I had done twice previously). Here's the list:

1. Parvati Shallow: 341
2. Tom Westman: 336

4. Cirie Fields: 324
5. Rob Cesternino: 323
6. Sandra Diaz-Twine: 312

Interesting that Russell isn't even on the top 40 list.

And surprised that Cesternino is still rated that highly.

 

[2861U2]

Can't argue with Tom being number 2. His performance in Palau is, IMO, the most impressive single season performance I've seen on the show by anyone.

 

[Sicy]

Interesting that Russell isn't even on the top 40 list.

Sucks hates Russell lol.

What's your username over at Sucks? I know I asked you before but I forgot.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

SurvivorSurvivorSurvivor....I don't really post much there anymore though outside of Clubs.

Hewson, Cesternino should still be on anybody's top ten list. His Amazon game may have been the best ever up until that point.

Russell not being in the Top 40 does invalidate that list a little bit. Twila didn't really make any friends with the jury and nobody would say she's more strategically advanced than Russell.

 

[Hewson]

Cesternino was good no doubt, but the fact that he lost and the large number of good players who've come since, plus some who've had multiple success makes him at #5 seem a bit of a stretch.

 

[intedomine]

Eh, seeing Yul and Todd down so low and the absence of Russell doesn't give the rankings much credibility for me, but If that's what people think, that's what people think...
