I have a hard time separating as well, but even without personality I don't think Kelly Purple is so hot. She's definitely way less hot than Brenda or Alina. I also think NaOnka is more attractive and probably Yve.

this ep was awesome. i don't watch enough of the web clips so maybe i should start but seeing the nonsense that happens the 23.5 hours of the day they aren't strategizing. fabio and the pepper was great. as was dan's hair, the "bed" crashing to the ground the first night, etc, etc. they should put more of this online imo.

as for girls...i thought a bunch were cute this season and when tans and weight loss kick in i fall in love with pretty much every survivor chick...but is the only girl that would be able to make me vote for myself simply based on the off chance she let's me sleep with her down the road is kelly purple. literally i'd be so pu$$y whipped that i'd probably hand the million to her if i won.

Naonka's personality puts her over the top.

maybe one man out of 10 000 would put naonka as more attractive than kelly purple.

well, hetero ones.

(if the hat fits )

Some things I noticed from the recap:

Jane is playing WAY harder and better than they have shown so far.

Nay is not nearly as hated/hatable as they have shown.

Dan is actually playing a solid social game.

Apparently the reason they never show Kelly talk is that she is always complaining.

Holly is a thinker and seems to have been the only one who predicted the swap which is probably why she played it so well.

Sash seems to have no leg to stand on anymore, I may have been wrong about it being the right play not to save Brenda.

Still no sign of hidden mastery from Fabio that I was hoping was there.

Benry still a one dimensional douche.

A one-dimensional douche with a good social game :P

I think one or 2 people have to like you to be considered to be having a good social game...

what are you on about mate?

kartinken is a feminist. so he doesnt like benry. its pretty simple

Anyone think of any good questions to ask Rob C. for his podcast tomorrow?

kartinken here is the boston rob avatar you requested

it's of him saying: "i'm a villain?" in episode 1 of HvsV



his hat shadows his whole face though and I think you should pick out a better scene if you find one

if anyone else wants a personalized survivor avatar, shoot me a message

enjoy

Thanks, Vyk!

rob doing a podcast this week?

Yeah, a phone-in podcast. Details here: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Rob...21007724579656

fml, just somehow spent £40 in phone credit trying to get on Rob C.'s podcast, got accepted, then didn't realize I was on and got disconnected. Awkward.

Heh, that sucks. It was weird, though. When he picked up my call, it was cutting out constantly and wasn't easy to hear them. Surely, there has to be a better method than BTR for these call-in shows.

lol what were you going to ask?

The recap was cool. Fabio lol

Never a big fan of recaps but really liked seeing how jane and holly were really playing the game. Jane actually seems like an amazing player from watching this. She seems to understand nearly every aspect of the game and was well prepared. I'm kinda surprised that the producers did not build up her physical strength throughout the season. They really missed an opportunity there IMO. She is by far the most interesting character. I'm still confused why the producers gave her such a weak edit. Don't think we have ever seen a woman her age be this dominant on any reality tv show.

You just answered your own question.

Interesting re-cap episode, one of the better ones they have done over the years.

In my book Dan's chances of making the FTC are actually going down. He seems like such a nice guy playing a decent social game that some of them actually might think that he could beat them in a FTC, even though he's crazy rich and hasn't done very much on a strategic or physical level.

Sash did a lot of "russeling" there, telling everybody that he'll take them to the end.
That being said he might make it to the FTC for that reason but will have no shot of winning whatsoever.
The way they edited this season it's so hard to predict who's gonna take it. The aim of the editing this season seams to be to totally mislead the viewership.

I still cannot stand Jane and Chase, I really hope they have to go very very soon.

I hope Fabio takes it, the deeper we go into the season the more I like him. And he's playing a pretty decent under the radar game.

Furthermore, I really hope they have a survivor auction this season and more endurance challenges where Jeff presents several food items to make them quit the challenge. Those were always good TV.

After Jane's "The way I play this game is 100% not the way I am in real life - I'll beg, borrow and steal to win this game", isn't it an absolute lock that she gets blindsided by one of her allies and becomes one of the hypocritical "you have no morals, I've lost all respect for you as a person" jurors?

absolutely

she's stupid and doesnt realize how big of a hypocrite she is (lol@ her marty hate and teenage crisis about not being in the early group)

If you want Kirbynator I'll book $100 on this not happening evens money. I'm fine w/ just a gentleman's bet (no escrow or impartial judge) but we could set it up if you want.

Loving Alina at Ponderosa. She looks great and I love her caty-ness towards Marty and Brenda behind their backs. I hope she confronts them soon.
