Welcome back to another season of....Survivorfest!
This season is starting out a little different since it has a "Redemption Island". Based on this, gameplay will be slightly different. I will only be removing a player from the game when they are GONE gone. Based on this, Francesca is not our Loveable Loser. At least not yet.
Since she still is "in the game" and can potentially win, she hasn't yet been eliminated. Based on this same logic, no one has been eliminated from the Survivor kicker pool. Many of you Francesca-lovers should draw a sigh of relief.
As usual I'll post weekly results on the leaderboard along with whomever was voted off: http://www.woltermanns.com/Survivorfest/Survivorfest8.htm Let me know if I have any of your picks listed incorrectly.
Now, on to potentially relevant but more likely immature musings on the opening night show:
Looks like I called Phil right in my pre-season bio: http://www.woltermanns.com/Survivorfest/Survivorfest.8.bios.htm he seems to be comprised mostly of an offal-based substance. I hope like heck he stays in the game for a while, however. He absolutely kills me.
Some early Survivor Hall of Fame Quotes:
"I am a former federal agent!"
"I love women! I'm really good with girls!"
"My mouth is dry, but I've been getting treatment!"
"If I stand here in my fuchsia tightie underwear and tell you that I am telling the truth, then, on my honor as a former federal agent, you can be assured that there is not a greater truth to be told!"
Okay, I made that last line up but you must admit it sounds rather plausible.
Phillip is a cartoon character.
Matt the genius showed up for the game in a suit. Genius. Hah! It looks like it didn't even fit.
I loved the reception that Rob and Russell got when they arrived on the beach:
"Yeaaaaa! It's Boston Rob!"
"Oh. It's...Russell. Drat."
Speaking of Russell, it looks like he got hisself a fancy new tattoo! I'm not sure, but I think it's a tattoo of himself.
Kristina took a page from Russell's book and went out and found an idol, winning any Kristina owners 5 points. Those CBS guys have GOT to start hiding them better. She made one of the first cardinal sins of Survivor and told people she found it.
I spotted the first blur from Natalie the pole dancer (another 5 points!). I think she might be wearing her underwear backwards. If you believe someone else was sporting a blur earlier than Natalie's walk up the beach, please shout out before next week's show airs and I'll check the DVR.
Russell's tribe (Zapatera?) seems to be more physically inclined than Rob's and won the first challenge.
Kristina was ready to use the idol to blindside Rob early but Phil, for reasons that are somewhat unclear, decided to blab literally everything at tribal council. He hung Francesca and Kristina out to dry in one of the most awkward tribal councils I've ever seen.
Francesca ended up on the raw end of the vote and was moved to Redemption Island. We'll see how long she sticks around.
Since no one was completely removed from the game, all players received a point for surviving the first week of the show.
See you next week on...Survivorfest!
