Well, in case you've been under a rock, the end to the Survivor: Palau ends tonight. Here's to hoping Dolphin boy can hold on to the end.

Only episode I have seen was tonight and I am glad he won.

Ian was an idiot. Without his wrangling and scheming, Tom would not have made it past the final six.
Ian screwed up three times in one night and then threw it away. Imagin what the vote would have been against Ian. Regardless, Ian's an idiot and Tom had no worries with Katie. She pissed off way too many people.

I'd just like to send out a giant "F**k you" to the people at Yahoo, who were kind enough to put the Survivor winner on the front page of their site, in the headline text of a news item, just to ensure that the suspense for anyone who hadn't watched the episode yet would be sufficiently eradicated. After all, putting the winner's identity inside a news item with a title like "Survivor winner announced" would have been far too much effort. Thanks a bunch! >:-(
I think Certis should set up a GWJ Survivor. Make it one of the pioneering shows of web-cast TV.
We've got some young guys, and we certainly have a bonanza selection of old guys.
Drag our select few wimminfolk in and we've got a TV show.

Woo hoo...count me in Legion!
and very glad Tom won...he owned the game from the first day, and nice to see him get some luck his way, and survive to the final four.
Katie...wow...didn't get a single vote (remember - gayboy hairstylist - who now adopted a child...awwwwwwwwwwwww - said he was voting against Tom, not for Katie
)
"I mean, she likes sex, too, and is quite good at it if you ask me, but it doesn't mean she wants it forced upon her whenever someone decides they want that from her."
Shaderaven discussing AoC PVP...hmmmmmmmmm
Isn't Coby a bit young to adopt? He never mentioned a boyfriend or anything, so is he raising it alone? I'm just hoping it's not some sort of publicity thing... "Look at me! I was the biggest bitch on Survivor and now I have an adopted child!"
I'm not too happy Tom won, but for the wrong reasons. I was hoping Ian would win because he was a bad liar and a nice guy, and I was hoping Tom would lose because he was an aggressive jerk. I REALLY hated when he started strong-arming people toward the end. I realize though that this exact same paragraph could be used to explain why he should've won.

Yeah...I think Ian got played like a harp...he didn't stand a chance against the games the other two could play. I mean, stepping down so Tom could take Katie because she cried? Good god, man...don't do that. She's a marketing hack, she can cry on command. "Her feelings were hurt", my happy ass. Rarely do I want to smack someone I don't know, but Katie just made me want to give her a big open hand smack upside the head. Just for being her. That's reason enough.
I thought Tom was a little arrogant...but I kind of expect that from guys that face death on a regular basis. I think it would make one kinda cocky. (It would me.) He totally owned this game, he deserved to win.

I disagree, ducki. Ian was played more like a xylophone.

Yeah, Ian should've stuck it out. I can respect what he did, but I don't think the favor would've been returned. Especially by Katie. Even if he hadn't done all the apologizing, Katie would still have stuck by Ian because he was her best shot at the million. Her plan was to ride along with the stronger players... her value was in being the most useless player so that she would be brought into the final two. Jen (in my opinion) was even more useless... and thus a threat. She had to vote for Ian.
I'm glad Tom won. Well played.
Ian was an odd one. One episode he's ballsy and insightful. Sniffing out Greggs move and opting to draw a rock rather than lose control. The next episode he screws up aleinating the women on the reward challenge and lets himself become Katie's tool. He finished up babbling and insecure.
Highlight of this season though has to be Duckideva's comments on Bobbi Jon. Absolute classics. I find myself grinning right now just thinking about them.
Ah Bobby Jon...bless him. I'll always remember him fondly.
