Survivor Samoa – Oh How the Tides have Changed (Warning Spoilers) - Week 5

That is a good question. I have pondered that myself. Where are the alliances or are they so blinded to think that they really are all good friends. If that is the case, I feel sorry for them. They need to get a clue.

Yes Russ S made a bad decission but if Russ H teams up with him he may have advantage to stay alive.

I agree on this you guys...Russell H has shocked us all..I almost hate to say it, but my contempt for him in the beginning, has lessened. Almost to the point were I sorta hate to admit that I find the guy entertaining now. Usually I just don't get on board with someone that rubs me so wrongly to start, but he is a character in the extreme, lol..

And Russell S is screwing up, too bossy, too cocky almost..and some others there are too..And Jaison...he's actually quite soft eh? Who wudda thunk...like Leenie says, I think he's toast soon too..

dawnald I agree with you about Russell H. At first I could not stand him but now he is rubbing off on me. Russell S screwed up with the pillow bit for certain and the whole camp fire bit last week was a real dumb move. Not sure about the ladies yet and where they all stand. No one really stands out with them.

I still think that Russell H. lost some of his edge due to forces beyond his control, like the rain!! His evil is just smoldering inside waiting to get out and do whatever damage he can. My hope is that Jaison pulls himself together and stays strong.

It makes me wonder how I would be able to handle being outside for 7 days of rain. That is like a mental wear and tear on you as well and physical. I bet they wish they had their tarp now.

New post up for weeks 6

What is really funny is that right before the show we were getting ready to make shakes for everyone to enjoy durring the show. Thankfully we waited until the show was over. That was nasty.

There was one season that the loosing tribe went down to 1 person. They can do that again if they wanted to. They still have a lot of people to do a merge.

I do have the week 6 post up.

Also, the statement that they all trust each other was made out of fear that they could be picked off if thought to be untrust worthy, but again, I could be wrong. Of course some are also too naive to know any better.

Maybe without Russell S, Shambo might have a chance to hold on. The only reason she's the one making mistakes is because the other girls aren't doing anything. But I have to say they were costly mistakes. And you are right on the trust issue.

leenie50,

I just cannot stand that cunning Russell character going all out with his misdemeanor right from the start of the game. The elements are already tough enough and the people just do not need another burden from the team's very own.

I will be glad that he is medically declared out or blindsided in one of the tribal councils. Let's see.

As for Shambo, I think she is doing alright and like you have so rightly said her mistakes are just inevitable as she is actually doing all the work. But, if I may add here, she should really be careful with her attitude and body language. Everyone's edgy and it just will not help if you give people the so what attitude. I am just surprise that her marines background isn't being put to good use here. She should be more tolerant and tactful. Everyone will love to have a cheerful worker.

Anyway, let's see how the plot develops.

Hey Sky,
Glad to see you've joined our little Survivor group. I can't believe the two people I dislike most are both named Russell. It looks like Russell S. on Galu is in medical trouble. I don't wish that on him but I also don't like his stupid decisions. And I don't like the way he treats Shambo. I'm not saying I particularly like Shambo but she doesn't deserve his so called punishment. And then there is Russell H. who everyone loves to hate, including me. The evil shows all over his face. I really hope they blindside him too. That's the least of what he deserves. I hope to see you here next week as soon as Pastor G. makes his post.

I am looking forward to the show tonight. I want to see what really takes place with Russ S. For Jeff to say what he does in the preview about it being the worst on yet, makes me think it is pretty bad. If you remember Michael for Outback, I thought his was really bad, he had skin falling off his hands. But for this to be worse makes me wonder what could have happened.

I'm anxiously waiting also because it looked like he blacked out and then hit his head on the way down. Then I heard the medic saying Russell can you hear me, like they do when trying to determine consciousness. From what I read on line, they never finished the challenge. We'll have to see.

Leenie, That must be a pretty big bump on the noggin then. Enough to stop the challenge.
I was think that this group was a much more aggresive group than other seasons. Almost pushing the limit. I do hope he is ok though.

So far i have not seen the cockiness in Erik. It may come out more once we get to know the players better on that team.

Time will tell. About 7 hours to go.

Pastor,
I believe he may have passed out before he hit his head. Just guessing!!

leenie50,

Yes, Russell (Galu) has certainly done himself in with his poor decisions.

But it is just sad to see him loose out like that. Again, this is survival, where you just need to be alert and wary of the harsh elements of nature. Once you try to go "Gung Ho" here, you will just have to face Goliath nature.

But, I am really looking forward to see Russell (Foa Foa) exposed and kicked out. Till then, I suppose we just have to agonize ourselves watching him carry out all those misdemeanors on the already depleted team.

Anyway, I am glad to have you as a friend too.

It was a good show last week. I have posted already for week 6. Trying to get my posts out earlier than usual.

Oh ya...funniest comment last week?.....when Dave says (who was is it, Erik i think) got "clotheslined.... by the clothesline!"

....when he was chasing the chicken that Shambo the farmer let get out cuz even tho she was brought up on a farm...."I didn't know chickens could fly." hahaha

that is the problem with some of these. The team with the most player and most likely to get to the final 4 we just don't know very well.

Perhaps we will get a better look at them tonight. I also want to see what will be come of Russ S.

Ok, that's it for me. I want to know why every post I do in Survivor, has a mature content associated with it?
I think someone must be tagging it or doing something, as there is no logical reason that it should be mature content rated. It just doesn't look good that all of my posts have that rating.
There is nothing in them that would suggest it should be mature content rated.
And I refuse to patronize any posts that label me as such. Go ahead you guys, enjoy. But I'm out for posting.
I will continue to check in to read up on your thoughts though. That'll be as vicarious as it gets for me now. All the best to my friends and regulars of the show.

Hey Luv,

Where does it show mature content? Please don't leave!! I'm getting to the point where I can't spend that much time at the computer and if you leave, I'll spend even less. I really look forward to seeing you here. Don't pay any attention to the damn mature content nonsense.

Hugss
Leenie

Leenie, you probably just got a mature content. LOL

Plunk, I am not sure. I have read through your response and not seeing anything.

I really love reading your thoughts on Survivor. It would be a travesty for you to not continue with us. You are part of the team.

BTW, new post was made today. Week 6

Pastor

How can you tell if you get a mature content? I used that word to see if I could tell. And how does it effect the poster? I don't want you to worry because I will always be here for your posts. You know how much I love Survivor!! I just want you and Plunk to know how much I miss you guys when you are not here.
Leenie

Sorry,
I just realized that you were talking to Plunk.

my new plan is to just use a few words side by side - at least then it will be easier to determine which ones are triggering the MC - I even noticed it MC'd one of yours Pastor, and the ONLY word that might have triggered it was "M i c k" and for what, no other reason than it sounds like D i c k maybe? Who knows..It is one silly a s s e d algorithm, that's for sure.

Sorry...I did get the weeks 6 out today. A little faster.:)

I don't think the other team was blind, it was just that they do not see what we see. We see his camera talk. When russell is in camp he is a different person.

I have week 6 discussion up too.
