Since I don't think i've ever seen it, what happens if there is a tie at the final vote? Sorry for not knowing ahead of time, but i've always
wondered about it.

The assumption's been that a 3-3-1 or 4-4-1 tie would be handled via a revote, like normal odd-numbered ties, while a 3-3-3 tie would have brought out the
firemaking tiebreaker to reduce it to 2 people, who would then face a revote.

Voting after the show airs seems absurd, and a revote would give away too much. I think it would be smart if the jury voted for a "second choice" at the same time that they vote for a winner. Then in the case of a 3-3-1 tie, the "1" voter's second choice vote would break the tie. |

They would... They (CBS) also had this cute little shot at the merge.

BTW Trixiego figures things out because she is wicked smart. And she knows what KISS means. Sometimes an X-ray is just an X-ray go figure, and a V just stands
for Victory. And two things mean [gasp]two things[/gasp]

I can't help but see the implication of 'Oz' in the clues. It seems to me that they used the witches of Wicked because they are significant...they
both lived in Oz...Parvati was great friends with Ozzy and now Amanda is dating Ozzy. It's Glinda though, that gets to stay in Oz. Also, Ozzy said in his
interviews that he didn't want to 'jinx' anyone and I think that's a dead-giveaway that Amanda is on the verge of a possible win.

I don't think Jason will vote for Parv like you said. He practically knows zero about what was going on at camp when he was around but he knows things
better when he's at the jury. I think his vote can be either for Cirie, Parv or Amanda. Natalie seems like the bitter type, and yeah, with the previews,
she showed she was. Ultimately, if there were a final three, Cirie would get the bitter vote of Natalie (hello, Parvati and Amanda screwed her gameplan over),
Alexis voted according to who she felt answered her questions best and all based on her post-show interview. Erik will probably throw something like a number
question cause his vote is up in the air as well. Ozzy and James ultimately, look like they have given their votes to Amanda. James basically dislikes most of
the girls I think? Eliza will probably be like Alexis, but she'll be more critical and such.
I believe that the votes go in a way that Cirie receives 1 vote, and the rest are between Parvati and Amanda, the suppossed two witches. And Ozzy is the swing vote due to the constant mention of Oz. but that's probably false. |

I am dead set against an Amanda win. You can argue circumstance for both of them. Parvati was saved by the Penner boot (supposedly) and Amanda was DEFINTELY
saved by the HII. Whether or not Parvati got lucky by Penner's med-evac is pure speculation because we never know what would have happened. We do know that
Amanda got incredibly lucky that Alexis was moronic enough to send her to exile. Not only that, but Amanda (seemingly) would haven't of turned on Ozzy so
early in the game. Perhaps the only real chance to turn on him...and Parvati did. Parvati fucking PLAYED. Against Amanda, I hope Parvati crushes her. It would
ruin the entire season for me if a cautious player like Amanda won.

Parv than it is for Amanda. Besides the HI idol isn't that easy to find. If it was Ami, Cirie, Kathy, etc would have all found the thing. And it's
not like Amanda hasn't had bad luck. If James hadn't been medical evacuated, he could have won that immunity, and they would have voted out Erik. And
there was no way if James had been in the game, that he would have agreed to vote out his girl Amanda. Besides, she could have easily told everyone that she
had the HI and they wouldn't have voted for her, but someone else. Heck, she might have done that if she hadn't gotten the HI. That's like saying
that Yul and company didn't win because they wouldn't have won with the HI.

I like Amanda alright. She seems normal and relatively sweet, but her using the HII when she thought she was going to get voted off is not that impressive to me. It's common sense. She only has a shot at winning because of the game Parvati played. If it was up to Amanda she'd be sandwiched between Ozzy and James getting zero votes like Becky. |

first. We also don't know who would have gone if they had went to TC after the switch but we do know Alexis and Nat chose Parvati over Eliza. They may have
booted James to get rid of a post-merge threat. If the fans had came out on top post-merge, Amanda would have been the target before Parvati because she is a
bigger threat. Amanda would have been in the same position when James had been booted instead of evacuated. It was just sped up. If James had stayed around too
long, she would have been moved up the boot list. I don't think Cirie and Parvati would leave both James and Amanda in the game to take each other. James
probably would have been unbeatable.
Amanda couldn't just tell them she had the idol or she would have lost one of her alliance for sure. And she would have had to play it anyway to be safe
so no help there for next TC.

Then I guess Cirie is the only one who had made it this far on her own. And she has had to play the game to do it, not just tag along.

Cirie was about to get blindsided when Chet quit, and she also benefitted from Jonathan's departure in the game. Everyone has been lucky.

I don't remember that but if you say so. I remember Ozzy and Chet being the targets. Jonathan is just speculation. There would have been at least 3 bigger
targets before Cirie.

And that is the beauty of Cirie's game. She's able to glide through under the guise of a "non-threat" when shes probably one of the biggest
threats right up there with Ozzy.
It's still funny, that sixteen seasons in and people still underestimate the players like Cirie. |
