It sounds like tonight should be action-packed -- someone returning from Redemption Island and the merge is on! I do think that all those people who worried about Aras and Vytas getting together and thinking they should do something about it may have wished they had done so!
Lifeguard Laurie has returned to the real world after a splendid well-deserved time away from home. Here are the latest pool standings:
End of Week Three 10/30
Galang
KATIE -- David, Margo, Zoetawny
MONICA -- Becky, KayBeeRN, Russ
TINA -- Cheryl in NC, Lynn1, Terry in TX
VYTAS -- Donna NY, ML
Tadhana
ARAS -- Donna in FL, MikesGirl
CALEB -- Glenn, ORKMommy
CIERA -- Andrea J, Karen in CA, Rochelle
GERVASE -- Jackie, Pam in NJ
HAYDEN -- Joanie, Quixotic Elf
TYSON -- Delee, meb
Redemption Island
JOHN -- Ed in Ohio, Nana in the NW
LAURA M -- AlbGlinka, JOKATS, rbennie
LAURA B -- Buzzmaan, Laurie, SueGee
As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join us!
Survivor fans ready?
Duel time - this time it's do or die. The winner returns to the game; the two losers go home. It's an endurance duel -- hanging onto a pole as long as they can. Not surprisingly, due to size and weight, John is out first. Laura M. seems the most secure although Ciera would rather play her own game. Laura M. returns to the game -- Laura B. and John both out for good.
Drop your buffs. The merge is indeed on.
Even though she could have kept it for herself, Laura threw the Hidden Idol clue in the fire.
Tyson found the idol and says that he isn't going to tell anyone. We'll see about that! They always seem to tell.
First individual immunity up for grabs! They will be shown a series of pictures and each must show them back in order on a cube. Monica out first. Caleb and Katie out. Tyson and Tina out. Hayden out. First round done.
Second round. Laura out. Ciera out. Gervase out. It's down to Aras and Vytas. Vytas wins immunity! (It's a shame Aras is a big target for others.) Gervase and Tyson still go for an Aras exit.
The tally: Laura, Laura, Ciera, Ciera, Aras, Aras, Aras, Aras, Aras ... rats. I liked him! The Tyson/Gervase plan worked. But, Aras is going to Redemption. He's not booted yet!
Hi Jaackie & everyone
ReplyDelete~~~SPLASH~~~ Here we go!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting us, Jackie!!!
Hi everyone!!!
Hi Penny
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering who makes it back in? Laura M or John?
ReplyDeleteWhere is everyone tonight?
ReplyDeleteHi, guys! Ready for the merge?
ReplyDelete~*~*~*~*~ SPLASH ~*~*~*~*~
ReplyDeleteHey everyone!
I have a pumpkin pie, and a 12pack of Angry Orchard Apple Ale
Hey Jackie, Penny and Lynn! I'm late, but I made it!
ReplyDelete~~~~SPLASH~~~~
They have to merge, since the "shake-up" left the tribes so laughably lopsided.
ReplyDeleteI am ready for the merge
ReplyDeleteHi Petals and Monty
ReplyDeletePetals, that sounds good to me. I actually had turkey breast, dressing and mashed potatoes for dinner last night. Thanksgiving preview :)))
ReplyDeleteHey, Jackie, Lynn, Penny and others who arrive.
ReplyDeleteOooh...women are usually good at this.
ReplyDeleteLaura B is out.
I don't think it will be Laura B. The M could take this one.
ReplyDeleteor not
ReplyDeleteJohn looks like he may be struggling.
ReplyDeleteI hope he goes back into the game.
ReplyDeletehe can't pointe his way thru this.
ReplyDeleteJohn OUT
ReplyDeleteGuess not.
ReplyDeleteUgh. That sucks for him.
ReplyDeleteoh My John is out
ReplyDeleteGot to admire her moxie!
ReplyDeleteHi folks
ReplyDeleteHi Joe
ReplyDeleteWow. That was a hard one. Would have kind of liked to see John win. But Laura M was secure all the way.
ReplyDeleteI do not like Blood v Water.
ReplyDeleteIt is not interesting to me.
Maybe it is just these particular contestants - all these chicks, Tina & her daughter and yada yada yada - just to much cheese and mean-girlness for me
Hey Joe!
ReplyDeleteHow could any one think this would NOT be very hard. To me, it does not look easy at all. No way.
ReplyDeleteHi Joe!
ReplyDeleteMERGE
I agree Petals
ReplyDeleteWHAT??? I get the clue is a curse, but I would want it. Hmmmm
ReplyDeleteand burning the clues, no immunity idols, just boring. IMO.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you guys think?
I like Blood vs water, Petals. I think now that they have merged, you'll see some of them disappear. Heck, I think Tyson is meaner than some of the girls. However, of the women, I think Monica and Tina are extremely mean.
ReplyDeleteI liked the idea of Blood vs. Water, but we need more interesting couples. And, I think more balance. Maybe all spouses or all siblings or all parents/children. I mean Gervase and his niece? That's nothing like Tina and her daughter. He didn't care at all when she went home.
ReplyDeleteAnd Gervase was useless 13 years ago, so I'm not sure bringing him back added much excitement. There's just some very dull returning players.
But there have been worse seasons, and it may start to get interesting now.
I would like to see Caleb and Hayden team up
ReplyDeleteRemember how Rob felt about the HII? I think they all think it's a curse to them. If they look for it, people try to blindside them. It's better to look for it without anyone knowing. Safer.
ReplyDeleteLifeguard Laurie signing in. Glad to see you all again!
ReplyDeleteI also don't understand the clue. I mean, why not find a way to use the clue so it's not divisive. You could share it with your whole tribe, for example.
ReplyDeleteBlech, Tina & Tyson sicken me.
ReplyDeleteThis is what I like. Finding the idol :)))
ReplyDeleteThis sucks. I hope he doesn't find it, darn it.
ReplyDeleteoh, God. Not Tyson.
ReplyDeleteAtta boy Tyson!
ReplyDeleteBoo hiss Tyson found it
ReplyDeleteDang it. Why him? It puts him further in to power. Dang.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty lame II. It's just a HUGE washer! @@
ReplyDeleteLOL, Monty. I know. I mean, spend $20 on your hit TV show for a fancier HII.
ReplyDeleteNot good, too confident. Yikes. Don't want to see them go yet.
ReplyDeleteMy atta boy was just a big YES to the idol being found and in play. I'm not a Tyson fan by any means. Why didn't Hayden go looking for it?
ReplyDeleteDARN IT!
ReplyDeleteGrrrr...
Hayden is kinda new to this, I wish he'd gone for it.
ReplyDeleteI know Joe! lmbo
ReplyDeleteI don't know... Tyson is entertaining. I might swing to the dark side. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHere's a spoon, Tyson. Here's a spoon.
ReplyDeleteDeja vu just like BB Only people I don't like are going to end up winning
ReplyDeleteThey spent a few more coins on that one!
ReplyDeletenice necklace
ReplyDeleteDarn
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Gervase got past the first round. LOL
ReplyDeleteMan, there's a long time to go. Must be a heck of a tribal negotiation.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Joe, re Gervase
ReplyDeletegotta wonder if this hurts the brothers. You know how paranoid people are.
ReplyDeleteHe threw that
ReplyDeleteI wish they would blindside Tyson, but no chance of that happening.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you Becky but I know they won't
ReplyDeleteI don't think one of the brothers will go. Something about Tyson's plans and the edit makes me think otherwise.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Becky.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like an anorexia before picture
ReplyDeleteLOL petals
ReplyDeleteCiera is a snot. Little does she know.
ReplyDeleteIf they vote out Aras, does he go to the jury?
ReplyDeleteMan, Jeff brings up a lot of things to think about. He needs to let it be.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteNot always, Penny.
ReplyDeleteI wish they would vote out Monica.
ReplyDeleteI would like Aras be in the Jury, so I hope he does go to the Jury. This is a pot luck, man....
ReplyDeleteNail bitting
ReplyDeleteMe too Penny, Monica.
ReplyDeleteSo many *itches this season, even the men are *itches: Colton, Tyson, the football guy...
Gosh, it's going to be Aras because everyone else couldn't stick with one.
ReplyDeleteWhat was the footballs guy name?
ReplyDeleteColdpecker?
I was wrong! Buh bye Aras!
ReplyDeleteUGH, I was hoping RI was done!
ReplyDeleteWow, I though RI was over. Cool. Hopefully, he'll get back in.
ReplyDeleteAras could pull an Ozzy from RI. IF you consider the lack of athleticism among many of the remaining contestants.
ReplyDeleteHi all. ;-) Late but just barely made it before the end. The show starts here in about 5 minutes. Just wasn't paying attention to the time. Hope everyone is good.
ReplyDeleteSounds like this will be an interesting show.
redemption Island again....
ReplyDeleteLOL. Monty
ReplyDeleteLOL @ Petals.
ReplyDeleteDarn. I wish they would catch on to Tyson and Jarves.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting, Jackie. See everyone on Sunday for TAR.
ReplyDeleteSee you guys later. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms J!
Is he going to R-I or out.
ReplyDelete@ Petals....coldpecker. LMAO
ReplyDeleteJackie, once again... fabulous party. I must be off now!
ReplyDeleteSee you all next week and until then - CHEERS!
There's my anwser. Thanks, Jackie. See you Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie nite everyone
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by, all! David - I feel bad that you show up and we all take off. Enjoy the show!
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled they're finally merged. Hopefully Aras can fight his way back and then not immediately get kicked off. :/
