You surely looked like a genius after you got a record-breaking ten votes! What a maroon. Last Edited By: Mega64 11/05/09 8:56 PM. Edited 1 time.

I can't believe he really thought there was NO POSSIBLE way he would get the boot. Most players are a little paranoid usually, he was completely 100% blindsided. Epic.

I think the comparison is to Twatwaffle in ASS -- he thought his back was covered, started talking big, and suffered the consequences. Query: is it more dangerous to declare yourself the leader of a pre-merge tribe and get canned when you lost a tribal IC or post-merge, reveal yourself as a wannabe strategist and run around issuing fatwahs if people don't vote your way?

Ice cream scoopin' Erik is my favorite, but that was less of blindside than slaughering a lamb. I don't recall Judd truly getting blindsided though. He just sort of ran out of gas.

I don't hate either of them (in fact, this episode has made me completely indifferent to Russell, even though I've tried so hard to like him), but he did not have that one coming.

Rarely has there been a player like Erik so arrogant at Tribal Council moments before being voted out though. That was great.

The difference is that Russell is arrogant only in confessionals. In public, he's wheeling and dealing. Erik was walking around camp telling multiple people especially Foa Foa to do it his way or else. Twatwaffle of course was a signature blindside:
