OMG!! They almost got rid of my MAN!! :O THose nasty, nasty strategical players on Zhan Hu. I'm so glad they saw the snake Aaron for what he was. I secretly hope that they "risk" crumbles on them. I thought it was in very poor taste that the girls were giggling. I think James hit it right on the head when he said "you're not winning anything". I hope he gets a chance for revenge against PG and Jaimie only because they were so callous about it!

I like James, and I have nothing much against Aaron, but it was a good strategic move imo for them to do that... not big on the giggling though.

I blame the show for what happened last night ... of course there are always twists. BUT how could anything else be expected. For once there was 3 against two, so of course one would be leaving. The women decided on Aaron and nothing anyone else said changed that. I do believe they hurt themselves because NOW James says he will not be providing for them at camp ... why should he because they plan to do the same thing next week and get him off.

It's game but when Survivor takes a couple of the most popular players and put them in that position it is totally unfair. They could have been final two and now they more than likely won't even make the merge ... if there is one. I think this messing with the teams in mid stream is my least favorite thing the do.

I will be very disappointed if PG or Jamie make it much farther.

I was also very disappointed that Jaimie was not penalized for throwing one of the puzzle pieces away from the table. I can't believe the teams didn't see that.

Oh well I am bothered by what happened so will just say thanks for letting me vent and I move one.

Why should Jamie be penalized for throwing one of the puzzle pieces away from the table? Why can't she do that?

I agree about it being a great strategy for them, but I disagree with the way they carried it out. We've seen in the past that throwing challenges never benefits anyone and karma lurks in the dense forest of Survivor settings. ;)

I just wanted to pull their hair last night for all that giggling. :pissed I mean, if you are going to do something, at least try to be smooth about it. I loved Jeff calling Jamie out at tribal. She got on my last nerve. First with the face she made when she found out that Erik was still a virgin. Maybe it was editing, and true, you don't see too many 26 year old virgins nowadays, but the guy is so cute and was opening up to her. Have some respect, spud. When he found out what the girls did, I was silently wishing he would turn on them. Second...just my opinion...I don't think "throwing" a competition is ever a good idea. For the minute it might accomplish their goal, but down the road, I think it will bite them on the rear.

Dflem, I didn't mean penalized by the show, but by her team mates. SHe didn't even get the approval of her so called closest ally, Erik, before doing it. When he said he had to go along with the girls AFTER he found out I lost all respect for him.

I was glad to hear Jeff call her out about what she did. My only problem with what happened was that she and PG put their team in a bad position and they are counting on hooking up again with the two that were switched ... unlike them mayby Frosti and Sheara will bond with their new team ... of get booted just as Aaron got booted.

It is not wise to make a game plan based on incomplete facts.

No, it's not wise, but Survivor (in the past) has merged at 10 (even the mock merge in Thailand) so it's not too much of a stretch for the girls to think that it may happen again.

Am I correct in assuming whoever goes this week is the first member of our jury?

Also, I have to say this is one of my favorite casts from Survivor EVER! There is such a mix of brains and brawn, beauty and strategy and just great characters. :D

I'm positive it was the editing doing that to Jaimie in response to Eric's announcement that he's a virgin. I'm sure that's exactly how she was feeling, but she is quite enamoured with the boy and I don't see her showing him that kind of disrespect.
