Survivor: Palau - 05/12/2005 - [Spoilers]

First Post
Ya know, I thought that Ian made some dumb moves in this ep until Caryn threw herself under the bus at tribal counsel. Looked like she just pissed everyone off. Jen even voted for her. She should have realized that she wasn't a power player (there are only 2 left) and kept her mouth shut. After this ep, I was very glad to see her go. Her game had gotten too inconsistant for my tastes.

Jen: Well played. She stayed right under the radar and didn't stir the pot. She let the big dogs bark it out.

Ian: The guys nearly sunk themselves. Luckily for both of them (especially Ian) it looked like they had some goodwill in the bank. Going into tribal I could have sworn that Ian was on the outs. He played such a good game to that point but blundered so horribly in front of both Katie and Caryn.

Tom: Needed that immunity in the worst way. His new tactic of bullying Katie certainly didn't work. Honestly, it wasn't a bad play but Katie is such a drama queen that any excuse to turn was good enough at the time. If he doesn't get the next immunity I would expect Ian to try and get rid of him. He can win against either of the Ladies but against Tom it would be too close.

Katie: Ugh. I've had enough. No way she can win the game. Tom, Ian and Jen have more friends on and off the jury. All of the final four want to take her to the last 2 and I can see why. She has coasted the whole game. Not that Jen hasn't because she has. But at least Jen puts up a fight in the challenges. I wouldn't be surprised to see her take one of these and sneak into the finals.

My one regret about this season is that Katie is still around and Steph is not. Now, THAT would make things really interesting at this point. It's almost too predictable as to the finals with the one exception: If Tom & Ian are sitting there in the end. Then it's anyone's game. I'd like to think that both of them are too smart to let that happen but they both made some dumb moves in crunch time so they just may let it happen. Gonna be fun either way.

The meek has inherited the earth - Jen has got to the point where she is in the game because she was under the radar, in the background and voted the the best for her.

For Tom and Ian, it all comes down to immunity.

Sidebar: Steph, damn she is a very attractive woman! :cool:
 

It's a safe bet at this point that regardless of the outcome of this Final Four you can expect that Tom, Ian and Steph will all get invitations to participate in the next All-Star Survivor.

Was over at the official site and that have graphs (geek giggle) Steph popularity is at an amazing 97% and this is after she was voted off!
 


Caryn certainly shot herself in the foot. Had she played her cards differently, she could have probably gotten Ian voted off. The next two immunity challenges are must-wins for Tom if he wants to stay in the game. If Ian wins either one of them, Tom is gone.

I'm not so sure Ian would be quick to pick someone else over Tom if it came down to it. Ian may be considering the fact that there could be a lot of women on the jury who didn't particularly like Tom over Ian, and Coby would definitely vote against Tom. Janu's a bit of a wildcard but I have to think she'd lean more towards Ian in the end. He's just so darn likeable.

Are we at the point where person that wins immunity does not vote? Do I have that right?


Oh, don't forget Sunday night!
The person who wins the final immunity in the final 3 votes but the other 2 do not. So that person decides who they take to the final 2 with them. Ya reversed it. ;)
