I don't think the jury will vote for Todd unless he's up against Courtney. I see Amanda or Denise winning and I would love to see Denise win. Very glad annoying PG is gone.

Fantastic. So glad to see PG kicked off! She should have something good to say during the final jury questions I would think.
I'm ok with anyone but Amanda winning at this point.

I know she has her detractors, and to be honest she's probably earned them, but I'm glad Courtney has stuck around. She cracks me up. Tribal council just wouldn't be the same w/o her.
I have no real justifiable reason to want her to win, but it's hard not to root for her snarkiness.

Amanda = biggest bullshitter/best strategist.
She goes around saying Todd is a two face and he is but shes so much worse. She's tried to make moves behind her alliances back many times. Todd made the Todd/Courtney/Amanda alliance and drew in guys like JR and James as pawns. His plan has worked perfectly thus far. Meanwhile, Amanda is the one thats been trying to make moves against him. Sure Todd the guy is kind of a bitch but he's been playing the game well and he is the only reason Amanda is getting to the final 3.
But you gotta love how Amanda "bonded" with PG. She goes and tells her that she wants to vote Todd out and that Todd is a backstabber and PG guzzles the Kool Aid. Then Amanda votes for PG and now Amanda has a definite jurty vote her. Its a shady ass move but its gold in this game.
Still hoping for a Todd/Courtney or Amanda/Denise final two. At least the voting would be interesting that way. Still gotta say that Amanda or Todd deserve to win. Todd was the bigger strategist and that has worked ideally thus far but Amanda made the smart move by staying in his shadows and watching him make the enemies.

How great was it when she only got one arrow in the reward challenge. I love how everyone gave thiers to Courtney knowing she would suck at it. 12 freaking arrows and she didn't even hit her own once. And she still got to go on the reward! What a perfect metaphor for the way shes been playing this game.

The funny thing is that Todd tried to do the exact same thing with Aaron from pretty much the first day. The only reason that didn't work is because of the tribe exchange.
Amanda has all her ducks in a row. Seriously, who's not going to vote for her, Frosti? Does Todd think he's endearing himself to the jury with his braggadocios behavior?
I almost forgot... it seems like it would have been beneficial to get rid of Todd, but I think it was really better for Amanda to maintain the status quo. The reasoning is that I think Todd and Courtney are probably the only people at this point that have placed their complete trust with Amanda. If she turned on them, they'd hold a grudge (as almost everybody does) and vote against her in the end.

Now, Amanda in F3 vs Todd/Courtney ... that looks much better. Amanda probably has PG/Erik. Todd is seen as the schemer, and Courtney can be abrasive. I like her chances there.
Though I do like Todd and Courtney. Todd is fun in that there seems little doubt that he's a Survivor geek. As soon as he read the one mail, he knows "Oh! It's the one where they combine all the challenges!" Hopefully he'd be true to his word and handle defeat with class. And Courtney cracks me up making fun of the show (and Jeff Probst). Upon hearing Probst say the final challenge would be cutting rope with a sword: "Oooooh Nooooo!"

I'm thinking that Todd is pretty much guaranteed a final 2 spot.
If Denise wins immunity the next go around they'd be dumb to go after Todd over a stronger Amanda. This is Todds worst chance of making it to the final 2 and its still pretty good.
If Amanda/Courtney/Todd win immunity Denise will get the hook.
When its down to three it will either be Denise/Todd/Courtney or Amanda/Todd/Courtney. If Amanda/Denise or Courtney win immunity they would take Todd to the final two knowing that they have the best chance to win against him.
Being known as the schemer with enemies may not get you a million but it does guarantee you $100,000.

Looks like there will be another $100,000 AC giveaway this year.

I have found this season to be one of the most boring yet personally. I really don't remember an alliance staying together and towing the company line so much.. Makes for a rather boring show since I never buy they're going to flip.

Really? I've loved this season but then again I haven't watch Survivor regularly since season 2. I should get whatever DVD's they've made and check them out if they are indeed that much better.

aside from the RIDICULOUS twist of sending two people from one tribe to the other, this has been a good season.
And they certainly weren't toeing the company alliance line when they voted out James.

BTW, I think Amanda and Denise each have to win out to get the F2 because I think she's a goner if she loses in either of the next 2 rounds. Todd and Courtney can skate by on their adversarial "charm".
