Susie played a UTR Follower Game and shaked things up to her favor when she needed to while Bob was just okay with everything. He even said 'It's okay
to be 5th in the Onion Alliance' and told Susie to be happy with it. WTF?

the fact is, they wouldn't give a finalist an INV edit unless they were INV...It could easily be argued that Danni from Guatemala had a mostly invisible edit, due mainly to StepheMe's edit hogging the limelight. Fact is, we see so little of what actually happens. Kishuu, at least Bob went on an Immunity winning streak, and at his age especially, that is to be applauded. I think maybe when he said it's okay to be 5th, he was thinking about something else - in an interview after the show, he admitted that his first goal was to not be the first one voted out. Then his goal became to at least reach the same level Julie Berry (his former student) got to - 5th. |

Winning a lot of challenges doesn't mean having a good game.
You need to win so many challenges in order to survive, then you're obviously not playing a strong game. |

Sugar did influence the game but only at the very end when that "genius" decided to took out Crystal and Kenny when he was a sitting duck. And yeah... she practically handed the big check to Bob. But other than that she was carried all along and the two times she was the swing vote she just voted the way people told her to vote. And seriously I don't get the "I'm-on-Survivor-to-do-stupid-stuff-and-not-to-win". I heard she was living "on the kindness of others" and was not the most wealthy of the bunch. So... which "not-that-wealthy" person would throw a million dollars through the window one purpose like that? That doesn't make sense to me. Regarding Susie I also think her edit was because of Bob winning the game. Since Gabon wasn't a season about great strategy (and the winner wasn't strategic at all), they had to have a (very) "likable" winner. So they shoved Bob down our throats while Susie got the inv edit. |

And probably others I can't even think of. I don't think she voted only the way others told her to, in fact, she dug her heels in and got her way. She did have a hand in voting out most people. So that says something about her influence on the game. |

Any voters can say they had a hand in voting other people. Regarding Sugar what I meant by "influence the
game" was engineering a boot and making a move on her own. When the merge happened Sugar was the swing vote. After Charlie got blindsided (because
Ken told Sugar to vote her buddy Charlie out) it was obvious that the Onions will be sitting ducks. So beside Crystal and Kenny she just voted with the group
(Randy's and Corinne's boot) or voted the way Kenny wanted her to vote. She even cried like a baby when she thought Kenny duped her on the Ace's
vote and she wanted to apologies to him. Hilarious.
I mean... obviously she wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer and quite frankly she didn't have a cluuue what she doing out there. Like I said she did influence the end game but I would say... in a moronic way. |

Hey, My aplogies for not getting back sooner, but you know busy life here. I'll try harder to come back and post once a week ok.
Pre-jury pick... Dan, but you just can not predict these things. I don't think Corinne and Sugar wil ever be friends. I never knew Randy was a pygmy islander.........it would have not mattered I don't think. Randy did not like me and I'm sure he still does not. My husband says I need to not be so nice all the time to people who don't love life, but I seem to always want to try in hopes that they will have what I have someday. My fault I guess, so I'll move........ I lost 23 pounds, but have gained back 10, so being back home has been hard. I loe to EAT!! Help!! I always told myself and others "Expect the unexpected" and with that being said I did and did not expect a endurance final challenge. I don't know how to feel about out-doing Crystal. I don't feel like I did. I know Crystal tried very hard, and she did not like to swim, so honestly this was hard for Crystal. This woman was strong, ......so please take into consideration.. ..... ... no food no water the first few days really puts a burden on an athelte like Crystal. I did kill on the fire challenge though, that was purely me doing it. The producers did not rig anything, but I suppose some people have to believe that in order to believe that I actually made a fire! That's ok, whatever makes your fire spark. Ask everyone else who was there if they thought the fire challenge wa rigged.. PLEASE!! Alright I'm done for now. Need my sleep. Susa1 BE GOOD :) |

I never knew Randy was a pygmy islander.........it would have not mattered I don't think. Randy did not like me and I'm sure he stillSo no one asked if anyone was a Suckster or Pygmy Islander? I reckon that's the first thing I'd try to find out!  I'd be like,
"Okay, how did you get cast? Did you apply? Did you get recruited? Do you post at any Survivor Boards?"
Prior to the game, did you and Randy "know" each other at PI, ie post together there? I assume that you met LP, SW and the others when Randy brought them to the reunion? It's a shame if Randy still does not like you - like your husband says, it would be his loss. He is who he is and I think you get that. I kinda got the feeling that he was on the verge of voting for you, but did not want to wreck what were probably his first friendships in a very long time with the Kota Kids. |
