Wow! I am both liking and not liking the new tribes. I like that Marcus is still in Kota but, I really wish that Matty was in Kota with him because I like both of them and think they could work well together.
I am a little annoyed that Sugar and Ace are both on Fang because I don't trust Ace and think he will be Sugar's downfall. But, that being said, I think that it might be better for Sugar and Ace to be on the same tribe because she blabbed to him about having the Idol and if she ended up on the Kota tribe, he would tell everyone on the Fang tribe that she has it and, while I don't know how that could hurt her, it might if she were on a different tribe and, it might be better for her that that knowledge stays between her and Ace in the same tribe...even though I still think that it would have been better for her to keep it to herself.
And, what is with the Fang tribe? I am beginning to think 2 things. One is that that name is cursed and 2 is that GC is a cursed member. As long a he is there, they can't get it together.
And, I think it was a stupid move for them to get rid of one of their strongest member and vote out Jacquie. Idiots! But, whatever. I am pretty much all about the Kota tribe...except for Matty and now Sugar. I can't recall who all is where now so, there maybe be some other favorites on the Fang tribe that I am forgetting but, I really think I like more people on the Kota tribe than on the Fang tribe.
So, what do all of you think? Are you happy with who fell where in the shake up?

I myself think Ace will be Sugars downfall. The tribe will try and keep Ace around awhile as he is good at mental and physical challenges. Now GC........
That boy has got to go. No respect, no work, no mental aspect from him. He is just there I feel for TV time in my eyes. I wanted to see them small asian man voted off personally. He isn't going to do anyone any good except for a vote possibly as he is easily persuaded to flip flop. Previews look great for next week. Maybe GC runs off with some natives or the animals to stay there? I am waiting for a challenge where the tripe or some mebres meet the locals in that area. Should be very interesting and beautiful to see as well.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I agree. I worry that Ace will be Sugar's downfall. I understand that he is strong player and therefore can be useful to the tribe so, I get why people will want to keep him around. But, I hope that they figure out that he is also very manipulative and capable of getting everyone to do his dirty work which makes him a threat to anyone and everyone but himself.
And yes! GC has got to go. I want to see him gone A.S.A.P. He is worthless. I am curious to see what happens to him.

Well, I missed a good deal of the show because I had to pick my daughter up from soccer try-outs, but I caught the end (and have it on tape so will watch the whole thing). All I can say at this point is that yes, GC should go! He is way too immature for this game. And Ace and Sugar should be split up, as should any couple on any reality show, right? I don't think Ace would blab about her having the idol, but even if he did, he would be blabbing to his own team and it shouldn't affect Sugar if she is on the 'other' team. But she's not so it's irrelevant.
Perhaps I will give more input once I watch the entire show.

I would like to see Ace or GC gone this week. Either of them would make me happy at their exit. LOL! As long as Ace is still in the game, Sugar is in danger. He has already shown that he feels some kind of ownership over HER IDOL. LOL! I can't stand that guy and I worry about her because I really think that he is going to do damage to her game somehow.
Enjoy the rest of the show!

I too like Marcus! He is hot and a great player so far. I still like Ace- Not too sure about Sugar still. GC is crazy-- and Kenny too. Why in the world would they get rid of Jackie- Because they thought Sugar, Ace and Jackie would have some power? They still had 4 members of their tribe together. I like Matty too- I wish he was on the other tribe as well. Away from GC and Ken.
Can't wait for this week to see who wins-- they keep making dumb choices like taking out strong players--- Fang will be at tribal council a lot. I can't believe they switched tribes so quickly!

First, let me just say that Matty could be my personal trainer any day. When the season started, I thought he's okay. But as time goes on and more of his personality comes out...
It kinda sucks that he's not with his new alliance but it could help him later when they merge. There's a possibility that they'll continue to stick together. So far it doesn't look like he's going anywhere anytime soon.
:::crosses fingers:::
Fang has to be one of the stupidest tribes in the history of Survivor. I can't believe they got rid of Jacquie. If you're sick of losing and going to Tribal Council, then don't get rid of your strong players! I know Sugar will be happy that she and Ace are together but I'm sure she'll be disappointed once she finds out that they kept Kelly.
With that being said, I've got to take off so I can watch Amazing Race! I hope it's not on late tonight.

He's just so...odd. I can't really put my finger on it but he rubs me the wrong way. I know Matty is trying to stick with the people he knows but you can tell he so wanted to go against what they wanted. Maybe he and Sugar can team up together and somehow get Ace out of the picture. It's a long shot but anything can happen!

Yea...Matty is really hot and, fortunately, even though the poor guy can't get out of the Fang tribe, he doesn't seem to be on anyone's radar right now so, hopefully he will be safe until the end!
I really am worried for Sugar as Ace's friend. That guy really wreaks of bad news.

Hey Star,
Well, I knew the shake up was coming. I'm happy for it so that we can really see who has it and who doesn't.
I like Matty and Marcus and I like Sugar. It's too bad about Jackie, because she deserved to stay. The losers picked up another loser from Kota and felt sorry for her and that's what happened to Jackie.
Like you I have no real thoughts or likes other than the ones I mentioned yet. I'm going to write down the names and see who's who. So far, this hasn't been one of the mosr exciting survivor.
One more thing. sugar could have gone for another hidden idol but was thinking she already had one. Not so smart. With the Ace up her sleeve, so to speak, she hasn't got a chance. I just don't see him taking care of her. It's all about Ace. Till next week.

Actually, there is one idol. There have been two a couple of times before but that's when they were placed at each camp and whoever had been exiled had to be sneaky when trying to find it.
If the idol is used or the person with it is voted off, then they'll bury it again and someone else will have the chance to look for it. That is if they send someone else and not the same person, as has been the case with Sugar this season. If someone else is sent to exile island and they find where the idol was, then they'll know Sugar does indeed have it.

Hey Leenie!
I really worry for Sugar. Ace will sell her down the river without a paddle as soon as it makes sense for his game. I don't like, nor do I trust that guy, one iota.
As far as another Idol, are there more than one? I thought there was only one per season which is why it is so important to get it and why people wonder if it makes any sense to search for it farther and farther into the game as the likelihood that someone found it already gets higher and higher near the end of the season. But, I don't watch this show that often so, I don't know if there is more than one idol or not.

How freakin dumb can Fang get? Why would anyone ever vote out Jackie who in my opinion was the strongest Women out of everyone in Survivor.
They should have voted out Kelly instead! Why the ll is she still there?
The one thing that is going to be interesting is to see how Sugar is recieved within the Fang tribe. She and ACE stil have the partnership but I think that if Kelly goes with Krystal, Ken and GC - then they might vote out ACE sooner than later and that will leave Sugar to play the hidden immunity idol for ACE which would be stupid for her as she will be going the next time. Then for sure ACE would have gotten someone else and then it will be time for Ken, GC or Krystal to go. Leaving ACE victorious from this tribe.
The Kota tribe is very good. All the members are strong and nice. The only one I really hate is Randy! I just can't stand him. I hope that Matty, Marcus and Charlie get Susie on their side and vote out Randy! Maybe Karin can also join them. Eventually on this tribe, Randy, Susie, Dan should go. Bob is a swing vote at the moment. I can't tell which side he is on at the moment. So after Randy, Susie and Karin go, that leaves Matty, Marcus and Charlie.
Finally, that leaves Matty, Charlie, Marcus, ACE as the most probabal top four though Karin could also be a strong contender for a top 4 place. The other possibility is Ken or Sugar. Actually Sugar has a big chance but it all depends on how she plays the game along with ACE.
We shall see what happens in the coming weeks.

I worry about Sugar and her friendship with Ace. I hope that she would be smart enough not to do something stupid like give Ace the Idol should he be someone that might get sent home. That would be a really stupid move on her part.
I like Randy. I think that he is smart and I like how he goes after GC sometimes. LOL!
It was really stupid of the Fang tribe, who really has been struggling, to get rid of one of their strongest players over Kelly who is about as worthless as GC. What were they thinking?

Yea...those two girls are very similar in looks. I was having a hard time keeping them straight in my mind during the tribal council. LOL!
I hope your personal issue with your daughter wasn't anything too major and that all is ok.
And, whew! Yea...Matty can make a girl go goggly! LOL!
