Well, you have a very good chance of winning. If she can make it to the final tribal, I think she'll win for sure.

That's what folks have been telling me. I'm thinking of getting the free month trial for CBS Access and bingeing this season over the next few days (now that the semester is over).

Early in the season I figured that he'd be a lock for a third-place finish as a goat, and then earn zero votes in final Tribal.

As impressive as he is for 71, I can't think of another player who made it so far for while doing so little.

Congratulations Davidh777! Did not see that coming, but excellent call on her part to vote out Neal.

This'll be trending on Twitter soon enough: #AubryGotRobbed

Congrats Davidh777... my pick got screwed by the jury. Oh well. ;)

Congrats davidh777!

Going into the votes being read, I would've had the odds 80/20 Aubry was going to win. What a shock.

Congrats davidh777! Never thought she would win, but she had an extremely convincing final tribal and a couple wins that put her over the top. Nicely done!

But yes, #AubryGotRobbed :lol:

Congratulations to davidh777! Michelle's victory was totally unexpected and completes the rare achievement for you in winning both the Amazing Race and the Survivor games in the same season.

I already have your payment information, so just send me a PM after you see the show.

Congratulations to Goldberg74 and Silly Burrito for taking 2nd and 3rd place. Please send me a PM with your name and the email address of your Amazon account.

Wow! Congratulations to davidh777 on the Amazing Race and Survivor Game Double Victory! Thanks again to Damfino and JuryDuty for heading up this game every season. I'm not big on the Millennials vs Gen X theme for the fall season, but you can bet I'll be participating in our game though. I'll see you all in the fall!

Just watched the finale last night--thanks all for the congrats! :banana:

I didn't have high expectations going into the episode, but fortunately Aubry won a reward challenge instead of an immunity. I figured Tai would vote out Aubry so I felt good about Michele then, until it went to fire and Cydney utterly failed. I didn't want Aubry facing Michele, but then the vote-out-the-jury played a big part, and honestly it's true that Michele ended the season strong, and Aubry was mostly hanging on. After tribal council, it seemed like three people had indicated that they'd go for Michele so I was cautiously optimistic. I wouldn't have complained if Aubry had won because she probably played the stronger game throughout the season, but Michele won a lot of late challenges to stay in the game, and the jury usually gives credit for those.

Pretty lucky to win both Survivor and TAR games. :)

Thanks for running the game, Damfino, and thanks for the graphics, JuryDuty!

This reminded me a little of how I won the Collar season with Blue Collar Mike. He ate a scorpion in the premiere and I gave up on him thinking I drafted a moron. Then he managed to hang on by winning multiple immunity challenges and the next thing I knew he won the season.

Now in this season, there weren't many of us that gave Michelle a chance in the final four proving once again you never know about this game.

The winners have been paid!

Thanks to all for participating in another great season, and special thanks to JuryDuty for the graphics!

Unlike the Amazing Race game, the Survivor game WILL return in September with Gen X vs. Millennials. (Will the spring season be Baby Boomers vs. Gen Y?)

It makes me feel old realizing that Generation X is now considered the establishment.

It's pretty bad when you don't remember 2 people at the reunion and one of those people was your pick in the game. :lol:

Thanks for running the game, Damfino and Jury. Hopefully my pick can make it past episode 2 next time.
