Haha, these close calls really did seem to have us divided. I can see Erinn getting a UTR2, simply based off the amount of times we saw her without her actually saying anything. I thought the tribal council question pushed her into MOR territory, but the argument against that is valid. I have a feeling this isn't the last time Erinn's ratings will be debated, she seems to have generated a lot of buzz in this thread for who knows what reason. Tyson definitely felt less visible to me than Erinn, but carefully reviewing what each did shows that he wasn't actually less visible. I just must've fallen asleep or turned away every time he talked, because I still can't remember his confessionals very well.

The only thing I really can't see is Candace getting a more "flat-lined" rating than Coach. Yeah, Candace was booted and we weren't supposed to feel bad for her at all... but if Coach was a legitimate boot target you can bet we'd be rooting for him to go too. I'm not going to go into details because the calls have already been "resolved" and at this point it's apparent that there's a difference of opinion.

Finally, the most interesting thing out of all this to me is Taj's rating. I voted CPP saying, "I can't point to any specifics for the positive tone; with her generally happy demeanor, it's hard to separate Taj the person from Taj the Survivor character." For some odd reason the topic of her tone didn't really come up until after everyone had voted and she was given a solid CPP. I still cannot really point to anything specific in the editing that screams "positive". However, I went into the episode not caring one iota for her and came out really rooting for her to stay around. Rabid fandom? Possibly, but I'd like to think it was some editorial intent that pushed me behind her. Anyway, now that her tone has been questioned by a couple, I'd really like someone with a more keen-eye for this who voted "P" (as many of us did) to possibly point out a specific? Or anything that would help?

I'm excited for this next episode, but I don't really see how my winner's picks could change too much from this one. It seems like Taj may quickly become a huge distraction and it should be interesting to see if Sierra gets any time to cool off or if she's up for booting again.
