3) It didn't screw Cirie out of the win. Amanda had 3 votes locked, Parv had Nat and Alexis.

Alexis wanted Cirie to win. She said it in Ponderosa.

Eliza - CIRIE
Ozzy - AMANADA
Jason - CIRIE - he knew she played the game
James - AMANDA
Alexis - CIRIE
Natalie - PARVATI

It all comes down to Erik, and he votes for Amanda or Cirie. Leaning towards Amanda, but he could have easily been convinced by Cirie in front of the...

I also knew that you would make a thread like this beatles.

Aw man, am I that predictable?

Now if we can get a 7-person jury with a final two in Gabon, reverting back to the old ways will be complete.

Absolutely. I really wish they'd done this in China, although I suppose with a 16-member cast it would've been...

When the best player wins the F3 IC, takes a goat to the F2 and wins, that's a clearly deserving win. But in terms of F2 seasons, this one was the 8th time that the F3 IC winner got to pick his/her opponent in the F2 and lost anyway. The others are listed here in order: F3 IC winner (WINNER, eliminated)

Borneo: Kelly (RICHARD, Rudy)
Australia: Colby (TINA, Keith)
Africa: Kim (ETHAN, Lex)
Marquesas: Neleh (VECEPIA, Kathy)
Pearl Islands: Lil...

I think in future seasons they may decide final 2/3 last minute, and just start the jury at 10

tullfan, that's complete nonsense, as ss01 just said. Fiji was a horrific season, that's for sure, but it had little to do with whether Dreamz or Cassandra could win. Fiji was a horrific season largely because:

1) The racist casting, which resulted in many horrific, ultra boring players.

Oh Quiddity...

4) Horrible, horrible editing

I love a final 2.....but with a 7 person jury please.

Seriously, WTF? An 8 player jury?

I also like the F2 better conceptually, but this season, we would have had a final 3 where ANY of the 3 had viable arguments for winning, and good edits for it, unlike the other F3 scenarios we've seen.

I love the final two standing. Amanda was the first Survivor ever on the finale two times after 78 days in two different seasons placing third and second.

Pardon my ignorance, but how would they handle a tie?

If it's done on live TV, would the perception of the voter change cos they already saw the actual show?

First time
-The final two are my favorites (Parvati was my favorite in S13 and Amanda was my favorite in S15)
-Both of them are hotties
-Its been a long time since they were two girls in F2

Ozzy looked pissed when Cirie was booted ... but it was purely because he wanted vengeance on Parv. Nat smiled because her BFF survived.

For Sure:
Amanda has Ozzy and James. Parv has Nat and Alexis (both heart her). Cirie has Eliza.

Jason - Parv or Cirie
Erik - Amanda or Cirie

Don't forget that when Jason did interviews, he'd seen Parv call him a loser and give him a negative voting confessional. In the game, he was sure Parv was running things...

I agree a final two FTC is more entertaining to watch, but a final 3 produces a better winner, imo. I think I prefer final 3.

I don't care how convoluted a jury of eight is, or whatever ends up happening. But this is easily the most excited I've been about a finale since the Tomination in Palau.

Sure, Cirie or Amanda is inevitably getting cut here but Kelly Goldsmith is the only player who I would accept a final three for if that's what it would take for her to win. Everyone else...sorry, F2 all the way!
