Results - week 2


Results - week 2

I can't believe it... a couple of firsts in Survivor history tonight:  Ben got kicked out of the tribal immunity challenge because he was too aggressive after everyone was warned; and evil Russell (Hantz) found the immunity idol in a tree without a single clue, AND he was able to stuff it in his underwear with 4 people around him.  Does he deserve the immunity idol?  You may think not, but it does show how much he knows about this game.

Also, this may be the first time a tribe had to still go to tribal council even after having losing a member due to doctor's orders.  Mike's blood pressure was way too low (I think it was probably from the exhaustion from the energy spent in the challenge, and the hard hits he took probably didn't help too much) so he was forced out of the game by the Survivor doctor; then Betsy was voted off because of her age and some of evil Russell's coaxing.  The yellow tribe now has 3 people less than the purple one.

So two contestants were removed from the game this week, and the pool has only 12 at the top remaining unscathed from the beginning.  Six entries had both of the contestants and felt the pain.

Survivor Samoa results - week 1


Results - week 1

Welcome back everyone!  To view the results, just click the image above.  The reason I'm posting the results this way is because the results are now too long to paste into an email - we have 66 entries this year, the biggest ever!  I will still email the results as a pdf file, but the advantages of using this blog is so that you can now leave comments about the pool or the show, and you can bookmark it to come back and check it as often as you wish!

About the show - not much more I can say besides the Russell Hantz guy is downright evil and crazy; but who knows, that may work out for him for a while.  But the thing I don't get is that you'd think that after 18 seasons, contestants would know that you have to keep the tribe strong until the merge so you can vote off the other tribe.  You don't start going after your tribemates right away and creating bad chemistry.  Ah well.

So the prizes are: 1st = $330, 2nd = $130, 3rd = $100, 4th = $70, Last = $30.  Can you believe you can triple your entry fee by being the best at sucking at the pool? (unless you're doing it intentionally).  Oh, if you're mailing me a cheque, my last name is Dela Cruz.

So go on, please post your comments below (click on the Comments link) if you have any on the pool or show - I'd love to hear your thoughts for once instead of just me blabbering on!  Don't forget to sign your name so we know who the comment is from!
