There was no incentive for Crystal and Kenny to actually vote with them. I'm surprised Kenny did. Master strategist my ass. You gotta keep all 5 guessing
as to who's gonna get the boot. That would've created fear and they would've turned on each other without flushing out the idol.

The plan to get 2 of the 5 to turn was smart. I keep waiting for it to finally happen, and this was pretty much the closest. But, I agree the fake idol thing
didn't work, but it beat just begging. At least they tried something.

Bob and Corinne needed to make it clear to Kenny that they wanted four votes tonight for Matty, so they didn't need to use the Idol. Then, they could
promise to give it to Kenny and Crystal after TC, as a show of good faith.

I would have been like, "Okay, you two vote for Matty, play the Idol, and vote him out. We won't align with you if you have the Idol, though."

ken was just looking out for the best of his own, and he didn't want the idol to bounce off of him.. even though it would be an AWFUL move to waste an idol
on ken over matty..

Agreeance.
Ken officially = DUMBASS. This is what happens when Survivor recruits people like him. They think they're smart but overlook Survivor 101 basics. |

Whatever else is going on, this is the most interesting pagonging phase in a long time.

(However some good points have been brought up re: bouncing back/endearing themselves to the possible HII 2.0 holders.) Plus, the proposed F4 couldn't have sounded anymore unappealing from Kenny/Crystal's POV. The remaining Onions already have 3 votes waiting on the jury for them and you want to put on another? Just for the chance of getting out someone who (while strong) still hasn't won II yet and you're already on you're way to F4/5 with at least two people that probably won't win any votes (at least from those already on the jury)? |

If they played it like that what would stop Corinne and Bob from voting Kenny or Crystal for being such asses to them? Keep in mind Kenny and Crystal were under the impression it was real, they didn't want to piss off people who could of voted for them and get them voted out because of the HII.What was really dumb was that Ken never asked to even see it. Everyone saw that Idol. He would have known what it looked like and known Bob's wasn't it. |

As much as I hate Crystal, she obviously thought the scenario through. By voting Corinne, she truly believed Matty was going home, but also had the foresight
to act in a way that wouldn't needless compromise his vote for her at endgame.

The plan could have worked if Bob told Kenny & Crystal the truth since they were so willing to flip and join him and Corrine. Bob spends way too much time
making fake idols.

They should've told Kenny and Crystal that they're playing the HII and voting Kenny out, forcing Kenny/Crystal to scramble and both vote for Matty.
Then Corinne/Bob switch their votes over to Matty.
Anything with the fake idol after the Randy fake-out was a long shot, really. Bob shot himself in the foot by telling Sugar he had a fake HII and then giving it to Randy. Bad gameplay... |

Bob and Corrine should have openly discussed having the HII at Tribal Council and Bob should have shown it. This strategy probably wouldn't have afforded
Kenny and the others the opportunity to think it thru and come up with their strategy.
