Even better, Yul was about to tell his tribemates what he was doing, and then he clamped shut so the other tribe wouldn’t hear him… I wonder if they had mikes on those boats?
How hilarious was it when Raro started to drift out to sea in the barrel race?
How cool was it when Ozzy was pulling the barrel with his feet as he was swimming? Everytime I see him in a challenge, or getting fish, or climbing a tree, I’m just amazed.
Yes. I almost found myself thinking, “Dolphin Boy who?” Almost, but not quite. Ozzy has better hair, but Ian was a bigger dork, and you all know how I love me some dorks. Still … Ozzy pretty much rocks my socks. He went over to the Dark Side for a little while there, but he’s come back around. He and Yul are definitely forces to be reckoned with, I think.
I swear, I read rockle’s post and thought she wrote “Ian has a bigger dork” - it really put a different spin on her post.
Having cleared that up on a second reading, here are:
The imitation RICH RANKINGS:
FORGOT TO FILE A 1040- I guess you couldn’t outwit everyone!
Brad: On the positive side, you get to smirk at people from the jury bench.
EATING BEEF JERKY- You’re still playing, but you’re praying for a tribe scramble!
Jonathan: A huge drop. Your only hope now is that everyone else realizes you’ll get no votes and carries you to the final two.
Candice: The secret to winning is having a plan. You threw away the game to hang out with your boyfriend.
Adam: You’ll be in danger as soon as people realize how dangerous you’re becoming.
WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A MERGE?- Middle of the pack players, the lotta ya!
Parvati: Might get swept away in the anti-white backlash if you’re not careful.
Sundra: In the new smaller tribe, you might be the one getting voted out.
HEY! LOOK AT HIS MOHAWK-You might make the merge, but you’re grimacing from the jury row!
Becky: If people don’t want to go after Yul directly, they’ll target you instead.
Jenny: You need to step up and start making some moves or you’re going to get lost in the shuffle.
LOOKING FOR A BIG TOM TO ENGLISH DICTIONARY- Big Tom has spent more combined days on the show than anyone. But he didn’t quite grab the brass ring.
Rebecca: You got some breathing room this week. Use it to advance yourself.
Ozzy: You’ve moved into a solid place in the tribe but the tribe itself is in danger.
ARE YOU A RAT OR A SNAKE?- Reserved for a MAXIMUM of two players. You have to be in the driver’s seat for this spot.
Nate: Dare I say it? You’ve gone from being the odd man out to the guy people go to for deals.
Yul: Still personally strong but in a much weaker situation than you were last week.
Ditto! He and Adam always seem smug to me.
My main problem with Raro is that they always make things personal. When they’re going to oust someone they always start by saying nasty things behind their back, smirking or rolling their eyes when the person isn’t looking.
It makes me want them to crash and burn…
As to the mutinee…I like it because it brought my dream alliance to the front, as I’d wanted Ozzy and Yul to bond and I’d always worried that Jonathon was bringing Yul down.
But now it gets tough! Aitu really needs to win every immunity challenge: only with the four of them do they have any chance at all.
If they can beat Raro next week (Raro will vote off Jonathon or either Rebecca or Jenny - I don’t seem them ditching Nate because they’ll think they’ll need him for challenges even though Ozzy whips his overly muscled ass every week…)
If they merge after that - if the right person gets sent to exile island (will that still be in effect after the merge?) and if Sundra and Rebecca are back together like white on rice - our Aitu just might make it! But I’m probably dreaming…
Yul has the immunity idol, and he should be able to win people back into his alliance with that if there is a merge. I hope he tries that ploy, because I don’t want to see those guys picked off by those Raro goof-balls. It would be very interesting to see Yul and Ozzy in the final 2!
I cannot vouch for that, sadly. 
I think the Aitus still have a good chance. There’s eleven players left and the merge has always been at ten (admittedly there’s also always been seven jurors before now). But if the four of them can win one more immunity challenge and make it to the merge, things will change in their favor. The four Aitus appear to be strongly united. Nobody in the Raros appears to have a similarly strong alliance. The situation would probably be the four member Aitu alliance (Becky, Ozzy, Sundra, Yul), the three member white alliance (Adam, Candice, Parvati), and three uncommitted players (Jenny, Nate, Rebecca). If the Aitus can convince one person to join them, they’ve got a tie - if they can convince two, they’re back in the majority.
This is my first Survivor (I know, I know!) What exactly is “the jury?”
The jury is the group that votes for who will win the $1M. It’s made up (usually) of the last seven people voted off before the Final 2. This season, it appears that there will be more than 7 people on it.
With the obvious being that the players have to be a little more careful about pissing off potential jury members than the people who voted off before Brad. Now everything they say from here on out, they could be saying to someone who might be a major factor in their ultimate victory or loss.
A quick primer on the show.
As you’ve seen the show starts out with the players divided into “tribes”. On each episode there is an immunity challenge and the tribe that loses this challenge has to vote out one member.
At some point the tribes will merge (in the past it’s always been when they get down to ten players) into one tribe. From that point on, it’s every individual for his or herself. There will still be immunity challenges but only one player will win immunity. Then everyone goes to Tribal Council and votes someone off. The player with immunity cannot be voted off but can vote against other players.
The players who get voted off form the jury. In the past this has started when they get down to nine players. This time they started it at twelve which has led to specualtions that other changes are planned.
Eventually they will get down to three players. The final challenge is traditionally some kind of endurance contest that keeps going until only one player is left. That player then sends one of the other two players to the jury and competes against the other remaining player in the final two.
The final two then face the jury (who they usually have helped vote out of the competition). The jury members get to ask them questions. The two players can make statements. Then the jurors vote and the person who gets the most votes from the jury wins the million dollar prize.
So part of the strategy of the game is figuring out ways to get other players voted off but not get them so angry at you that they vote against you in the final two. Some players have tried to arrange for an extremely unpopular player (like Jonathan) to stay in the game because they are considered a safe opponent to take to the final two.
One more thing. The jury members will be attending (but not participating) in all of the Tribal Councils from this point on. So they’ll get to see and hear everything being said by the players at the councils.

Damn…I was hoping those were going to be nekkid Dolphinboy, not nekkid Monkeyboy…
Hmph. Kids today. So ungrateful…
Hmmm, You’d think that would get in the way when he’s climbing trees.
Have I missed something entirely, or is Becky being counted twice? :dubious:
You missed a whole person. 
Becky is the Asian girl on Aitu. Rebecca is the black girl on Raro–she doesn’t say much.
You guys! Not fair! I didn’t see this until I was already at work, and now I have to wait like 6 whole hours before I can check it out! Harumph. :mad:
