re: Survivor Season 45- Season Long Thread

are you going to quit and then say that you would have won if you didnt?

Probst said every indication was that Sifu was going home and Sean was safe.

Sifu strikes me as a little unhinged.

D might be in legit trouble back at camp


Anyway just caught up but the last few episodes have been really good.

Sibayah tribal was an all timer. Emily being the swing was a full circle moment unlike we’ve seen in a long time. I don’t particularly like Caleb, that shmoozing salesman shtick would annoy me, but he put in work with her and it paid off so he deserved to get that win imo.

I actually liked Sibayah more than him, she was no nonsense and I would have been with her on her takes of the tribe. She also took the loss like a champ and knew she was playing too hard.


The tribe swap was pretty awesome the way it worked out too. The three yellows ending up on each tribe was interesting and seeing what happens if Blue goes to tribal will be another great one.

the season of quitting continues. Yet another person begging to get voted out. this one would rather get railed in the arse than spend another day on that island. 90% of this season's players are an embarrassment to what was Survivor.

Wanting to vote off their strongest tribe member ensuring they will continue to lose so they don't have to beat them in the future.

That one chick nailed it, they would still be in a cage in the water if not for that "sifu" guy.

does anyone else find Drew super annoying

Drew and Austin remind me of the meme where a fat slob who says hi to a woman at work gets hit with harassment charges while a good looking guy can say all kinds of lewd stuff and the women just giggle.

Drew is such an odd-looking guy he is treated like he’s not trustworthy but Austin reels them in.

Nurse Kellie’s getting a good edit and seems like she’ll make it far in the game.

I kind of wanted the tribe with Bruce to lose and send him packing. He's annoying and acts like he's some kind of survivor veteran, he played like 12 hrs

---

LMAO. I hardly ever agree with you on the folks I like or dislike. I don't mind Bruce at all. The girl complaining about him drives me nuts. The whole push present discussion was hilarious to me because I feel like Bruce. All these babymoons, push presents, etc are made up things to sell stuff. They are things from the last 10-15 years.

Jake...yeah, something is wrong with him. I feel like we will find out later or they wouldn't have shown him collapse twice. He even seemed like he had a weird tic when talking after he got up off the ground.

Like everyone, I'm ready to hear from other players. I've thought this season was a little boring.

Girls just don't like Bruce because he's a strong man with an opinion. He won't last long on survivor. This isn't 2012

The Blue tribal did not disappoint! Who would have thought Emily would be the star of the season halfway through

Very glad she went with Red. Brando struck me as pretty entitled and would have hated to see his lying take down Napoleon. If only he had accepted his shot in the dark he could have proven Brando approached him with the plan. Major screwup telling him to keep it. But glad Austin locked down Emily.


Seeing her navigate post merge is going to be interesting. Caleb has slithered his way into a pretty secure spot with the former Blues, and now he has Emily securing trust with the Reds. As the final two Lulus they really are going to be key votes for both sides to fight over.

Had Emily sided with the Blues red would be in serious trouble, but now it’s 6-5-2, so it really sets up for an interesting post merge.

I mean, dude seems annoying as frick to me


The “instructing” while everyone else is doing the actual work would piss me off.

Plus his nonstop telling them about his “celebrity” would have had him on my hit list day 1.

all of this.

Dude thinks he is Russle Hantz famous

Anyone that is annoying, he decides to befriend them and use them to his advantage.

Yeah this is much harder than it sounds too. I’m not sure I remember anyone doing that as effectively as he has.

So even though his salesman shmooze kind of annoys me, it is really impressive. Plus, he does seem genuinely nice and just chill.

I guess the shorter game makes that approach easier than if you had three days between tribals. Much easier to grind on nerves in that format.

With comps and tribals every day definitely easier to just lay low in the down time at camp at that pace.
