The ranking thing went pretty well I thought.

nah I liked this season's switch.

Ranking tribemates was awesome and exposed some of the going ons.

My fantasy almost came true in cook islands but damn, they make those fucking twist. A switch is just getting boring.

It's Survivor nature to have more women picked off at the beginning and more men picked off at the end.

Yeah, but they're getting talked about, which is pretty much all the producers, suits, and network care about.

The way it looks now, I don't see any guys going soon. Randy scored all three points for Kota in the IC, meaning Susie'll probably be the one booted if they lose. It'll probably be Kelly that goes from Fang because of Sugar and the idol. I hope it changes though. Get rid of the rest of the craptacular onions.

even so, it's because women always divide themselves up. just look at big...

Too suck. Don't forget Panama which the first 4 boots are women.

exactly. if you boot too many men first then when are the women ever targets? you'll get a season with like 7 women and 1 or 2 men in the jury stage. Not that that's horrible and should never happen but we've actually seen this a few times as mentioned above, yet Fiji was the only time the men ever severely outnumbered the end game.

it's because men are more likely to bond, while women are more likely to divide. happens in every reality show. i remember on real world sydney, the women divided themselves into 2 groups of two within fifteen minutes of moving in while the 3 men got along fine.

Gillian was fun? Jacquie was fun? Paloma was fun? Michelle, I can understand, but other than her, the only fun women are Crystal and MAYBE Sugar.

yup but the most fun to watch women are premerge boots.

^YES.

and it sucks that women are voted off first.. but once they make the merge the men get picked off. So it's a nice way of weeding out the weaker females.

we almost have it with cook islands until a fucking switch happens. When will the female audience have their turn to experience a painful premerge.
