dna4ever 2 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 GOOD FIRST EP, I LIKE MAH FELLOW HILLBILLY J.T.LIKE SIERRAIf Sandy is going to make it any further in this game she needs to partner up with someone, try and make an alliance, and let them help her find the hidden immunity idol. I mean who the heck doesnt know what a Pace is?"Sandy, are you a little crazy?" *Big Bug Eyes* "Oh yeah, a lot crazy" Classic. Link to post Share on other sites
Gallo 1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Why don't you guys put the picks in your posts on this fromt page so we don't have to back and forth between threads. Just a thought. Link to post Share on other sites
Governator 54 Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 What a strange episode [spoilers below]Initial thoughtsI didn't like the twist. I thought it made people look bad, voting on first impressions is pretty rough, I believe "Granny" was the first vote .. LOL.Sandy: She's crazy and not the smartest player for someone her age. She doesn't know what a pace is, what a palm tree looks like or that Jalapao is different than a Jalapeno. However, I'm happy she proved herself at the challenge. She did work hard and did everything she could on the stairs. I'm also happy that Jeff didn't say "If you have the hidden immunity idol now is the time to play it." This would've outed her, so good for the survivor crew. Even though she looked pretty good at walking up some stairs at the challenge, she's just too crazy to last longer than a few weeks.JT: Just like I thought, he's one of the strongest players in the game. Not just physically but he seems like he'll easily adapt to the survivor lifestyle. After day 1, I would pin him as the man to beat.Benjamin (Coach): Not nearly as cool as I had hoped. He's strange and all, but he comes off a bit harsh. This will bite him in the ass just like it did to Carolina.Carolina: She was hot! I really hoped she'd be around. If I've learned anything watching survivor, you never boss someone around at the early stages. Never has that strategy worked so why even bother trying. gg OttawaBitch/SergeSydney: This is my pick in the pool. Didn't get much info on her, I thought she sucked at the puzzle and could've been one of the weak ones to pick off. I'm glad Carolina opened her mouth, which buys some time for her to build an alliance.Sierra: She's probably my favourite girl there. I like her personality and she did a very smart thing of voiding the idol search. As long as benjamin doesn't push her around I think she'll be able to build an alliance before having to worry about getting voted off. How far she'll go, I have no idea but I think she's definitely middle of the pack and not last anymore.So far we haven't seen much of camp life. I'm anxious to see what kind of shelter they built and how well it'll last against the first rainfall. I was disappointed that the losing tribe got flint after tribal council. This is survivor, you got to win a challenge to get rewarded that. Link to post Share on other sites
Gallo 1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I didnt mind that Sandy decided to look for the idol instead of building camp. One problem...she never even went to go look for the idol!! WTF?!?!I mean, seriously, if she didn't even go look for the idol then what did she do the whole time at camp?

Yoda 1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I didnt mind that Sandy decided to look for the idol instead of building camp. One problem...she never even went to go look for the idol!! WTF?!?!I mean, seriously, if she didn't even go look for the idol then what did she do the whole time at camp?Yes she did, they showed her at the wrong beach digging at some random stick. I mean imagine you are dropped in the middle of nowhere and are told "go dig at the stick on the biggest beach." You have no idea how many beaches there are, how far they might be from camp, what direction it's in. So if you pick a direction and start walking and come up on a beach with sticks, how do you have any clue if your at the right place? It might have taken her well over an hour just to find the wrong beach. You just have to assume you are at the right place and start digging. She only had a few hours...

troyomac 0 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 It's still stupid to not start building the shelter, because you HAVE the clue. You can search for it the next day or the day after, or anytime you want provided you aren't booted in the first few days. Link to post Share on other sites
GWCGWC 83 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Did they really have to vote out the best boobage first? really? I already miss Sugar. Everyone knew Sandy was safe from the amount of air time she received. She's bat shit crazy but she'll be around for a few more weeks. Gallo, Yoda's exactly right about searching for the immunity idol when she first got there. You're right about her being too dumb to know what a pace is and finding the beach with the stick the second day. Link to post Share on other sites

hblask 1 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 This episode really moved some people around compared to my pre-show rankings.Unfortunately, I thought Benjamin could overcome his cockiness and be a good leader. So I move him from #1 to first off after the merge. Which sucks, because I have him in the Uncool Pool.Stephen was my second ranked player, but I now move him WAY down, 10th or so. He's a fish out of water and has no chance.Debra is the other person I have in the UP -- no air time, so she's safe for a few weeks.I had ranked JT 5th and Jerry 6th, I now move them to a tie for first, they've got to be the two favorites based on what we saw here.Erinn, I didn't like her as much as I thought I would. Too whiny already.The big surprise is Tyson. I thought everyone would hate him and he'd have no chance, but I think he's going far. And Sierra moves up from the bottom of my list to making the jury.Sandy is a bag lady. She probably feels out of place without her shopping cart full of broken radios and empty toilet paper tubes. At least she has the voices to keep her company. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I liked the premiere. Even though some people didn't get any airtime, everybody seemed to have a personality, so hopefully this will be a good season.First impressions, I like the black army guy. So far I want him to win... along with my pick Debbie of course.I liked how they divided the tribes already instead of the stupid schoolyard pickem thing. Even though one tribe could still dominate the other, at least on paper they are fair. I couldn't watch another season with people making horrible picks for their tribe.If you were one of the weaker guys, (maybe the jewish guy from NY) would you think it would be a good idea to make an alliance with the chicks (Sandy, Taj, etc.)? Even though Sandy is a little crazy, she seems dependable for an alliance since she is on the outs, and she doesn't seem that weak. It would be bad in the short run because if you get out the stronger guys first you will probably lose a lot of immunity challenges. But if you look at last season, the smaller tribe at the merge ended up taking over. There are always people on the outs of the larger tribes alliance who end up bonding with the smaller tribe. I guess I'm thinking of strategy too early in the game, which possibly would be my downfall if I ever made it on the show. Link to post Share on other sites
brvheart 1,768 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Sierra FTW.I don't ever remember seeing this girl on the show. Is this the sick girl?This episode really moved some people around compared to my pre-show rankings.Unfortunately, I thought Benjamin could overcome his cockiness and be a good leader.

Sierra had it right. "Let's do what I can around camp first worry about looking for the idol later if I need it." Link to post Share on other sites
