Corinne and Randy speak very highly of Marcus, Charlie and Bob (well at least Corinne does). They also like Kenny to an extent too. The only people I can remember Corinne expressing a mutual dislike
for is Sugar as well as Susie for wanting to vote her out.

Randy disliked Sugar for obvious reasons, Susie for screwing up his alliance, Bob for tricking him with the fake idol and Crystal/GC for eating all the rice early at camp and just being downright obnoxious. Of course when Randy left he just upset almost everyone with his stupid crash and burn plan that couldn’t have worked anyway even if the idol was real. He would just be gone the following week instead. After the show Randy has said he has become friends with Crystal and GC of all people and also likes Susie too now. He still doesn’t like Sugar which isn’t surprising given how Sugar treated him when they were in different tribes. Corinne said she wouldn’t talk to anyone she didn’t talk to on the show and vice versa for those people I’m sure. According to Corinne, Crystal, Susie, and Sugar treated her like crap and Corinne is obviously doing the same to them now with her post-elimination comments. Neither Corinne nor Randy seem very nice if you get on their bad side but if you don’t they don’t seem entirely unpleasant at least to me. I think they can be quite funny with telling people what they really think of them even though it might turn a lot of other fans off.

Survivor is trying to keep us captivated with the fake idols and the mean people to boo at, but it is becoming way to predictable. I think the challenges are great, but they need to stop controlling the show with all the editing. It is boring. You know the next thing they are going to show finding the floating idol.

Bob has enough beads, resin and other materials to make fake idols and Matty makes a necklace for his girlfriend. I know they got some from the tribal torches, but hey are they trying to help people make fake idols by giving them the materials that are similar to the real idols?The professor from Gilligan’s island found less materials for crafts than Bob and Matty. Are they gonna find a box of crayons and some elmer’s glue laying around next?

Nobag ~ Bob was upset with Sugar for talking him into giving a fake hidden immunity idol to Randy.  Corrine was upset with Sugar, too.  Sugar was defensive of her actions.  Next day, Bob and Kenny caught a large fish!  They cooked it over the flattened tin can over the fire.  Kenny scoffed that Bob didn’t know how to play the game.

Reward Challenge ~ slide puzzle.  The reward was to chat with the loved
ones through the phone video!  After a stone draw, Crystal and Susie
were captains.  After rock, scissors, and paper, Susie chose first.

Susie’s team was herself, Matty, and Kenny.  Crystal’s team was herself,
Sugar, and Bob.  Each team, tied together, ran uphill with puzzle pieces.
Susie’s team arrived first.  Then Crystal’s team arrived second.  But Crystal’s team finished first so they reached to next round of solving a puzzle.  Bob solved the puzzle correctly, he won reward!  Bob sat on the luxury couch, drank beer, and watched his wife, Peggy on the sprint phone.  Then he got a surprise of his life - his wife’s live appearing!  They hugged and ate together.

Nobag ~ the campers chit-chated.  Bob and Peggy came!  They received
the hugs from the campers.  What’s more - they got the surprises of their
own!  Their loved ones came!  They tearfully hugged & kissed their loved
ones!  Matty proposed to his girlfriend!  Sugar & her sister talked about
their dad’s passing.

Nobag ~ Bob told Corrine about a hidden immunity idol that Randy threw
into the ocean.  He said that Marcus told him about Marcus found it and
hid it in the camp area.  Corrine thought it was a great idea!

Immunity Challenge ~ trivia questions and ball throwing into bulls eye below. Bob won the ball throwing and won his first immunity idol!!  His rivals looked disappointed as they wanted him out for being a threat.

Nobag ~ Bob made another fake hidden immunity idol!!  Corrine told Kenny about that idol and talked them into voting off Matty.  Bob showed his fake idol to Crystal!  Crystal and Kenny even considered to vote off Matty!

Tribal Council ~ Kenny showed his Matty ballot! Matty showed his Corrine
ballot.  Jeff revealed 3 Corrine and 3 Matty ballots.  Jeff revealed the final
one - Corrine.  She become 12th person voted off from Survivor: Gabon.

I am very disappointed in Crystal for not following Bob and Corrine’s brilliant plan to vote out Matty.  I believe Matty is a bigger threat than Corrine.  Crystal, Susie, and Sugar are fools big time for not voting off Matty!  They may help Matty win a million!

Next week ~ Kenny is upset with Bob for playing him.  Bob says if he wins another immunity, he would give it to Kenny.  Sugar complains about Crystal and Kenny.

Nobag ~ Randy wondered why Charlie was voted off instead of himself.
Someone told him Charlie was a big threat, so he was blindsided.  Corrine was disappointed about it.  She and Randy tried in vain to redeem themselves.  Tree mail. Auction!

Next Week ~ Bob informs Corrine that Marcus secretly took a hidden immunity idol and hid it around camp after Randy threw it into the sea.

Kota ~ got to camp from Tribal Council.  Former Fang members
gloated about blindsiding Marcus.

Fang ~ tree mail.  They found props of a golf ball and slingshot.
They practiced.  They were starved and needed reward.

Reward Challenge ~ Super Golf.  Fang won reward!  Bob was
sent to Exile Island.

Fang ~ the happy & hungry winners went to BWITI VILLAGE
where they were greeted by Gabonese Natives.  They received
the baths and got the sarongs wrapped around their bodies.
They feasted heartily and danced.

Kota ~ Kenny caught some fish.  He gloated that he knew
how to play the game.

Exile Island ~ Bob chose clues over comfort.  He followed
the clues but he didn’t find an immunity idol.  So he made
a fancy-looking fake one and wrapped it in a cloth!

Fang ~ tree mail.  Matty read the note about fire-building.
Randy complained about Crystal and said she didn’t know
how to start a fire.

Immunity Challenge ~ Bob came back from Exile.  Jeff surprised
them by announcing that it was a merge!  They dropped their
old buffs for fresh new blue buffs!  They completed in individual
challenge in fire-building.  Susie and Sugar were almost tied, but
Susie’s fire burned the rope first, so she won her first individual
immunity and Jeff gave her a necklace.

Nobag ~ the campers settled in old Fang camp.  They painted
their names on the blue flag marked “Nobag”, backwards for
Gabon.  They feasted, too.  Corrine and Charlie tried to work
on Sugar into voting off Crystal.  Susie, Crystal, and Kenny
tried to work on Sugar into voting off Charlie.  Sugar was not sure.

Tribal Council ~ Randy & Crystal argued.  Some ballots showed
Crystal and Charlie.  Jeff revealed four Crystal ballots and four
Charlie ballots.  Jeff drew a final one - Charlie.  His torch was
snuffed as he became 10th person out of Survivor: Gabon.

I am very disappointed in Sugar!!  She did a stupid move by
following Fang members rather than Kota members!  Kenny
was the one who created an ugly name like Nobag!  It was
un-creative.  He couldn’t have a better idea of picking a better
name? I’m also disappointed that Bob failed to find a hidden
immunity idol, but he did a brilliant move by creating a
genuine-looking fake hidden immunity idol!  Let’s see what
will happen with it.

Next Week ~ Randy goes skinny dipping!  He tells Matty that
he was not part of an alliance of Susie, Crystal, and Kenny.
Randy stirs up camp!

Bob’s future in the Survivor game depends on whether or not
the tribes merge tonight. If there isn’t a merge (unlikely)
then either Matty or Bob is gone. If they DO merge, then either
Suzie, Ken or Matty will be gone. Charlie, Randy, Corrine, and
Bob will pull in Sugar (who was VERY pissed at Ken for lying
to her about Ace) and proceed to vote off the others.

Matty is obviously the biggest challenge threat, though Bob
and Randy (of all people) seem to hold their own. He would
be the strategic vote.

Suzie is a train wreck in progress, and she’s pissed off Randy,
Corrine, and now Bob.  She is the emotional vote off, but not
really a vital move. If she can keep from annoying everybody
enough to vote her off in disgust, she might hang around a
while – but I doubt it.

Ken might be Sugar’s price to cooperate with the others – I
think she will not forget or forgive him, and will want him gone.

Of course, all of this is speculation; people this season seem
to not act in their own best interest..and ya never know what
monkey wrench could be thrown in the works.

The following celebrities have been confirmed to be appearing in this year’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! The show will premiere on Sunday night on the UK’s ITV1.  Martina Navratilova, Brian Paddick, Simon Webbe, Esther Rantzen, Dani Behr,  Robert Kilroy-Silk and WAG Carly Zucker. Well the ten have been revealed and all but one has been rumored to be going in for weeks. It’s that one name that the papers missed that will have me watching avidly, it’s George Takei. I’m a life long Star Trek fan though so I know others won’t all share my enthusiasm. I just hope he doesn’t prove to be disappointing like Antonio Fargas was a few years back.

IACGMOOH

Two players are left that have been dominant in challenges  Matty and Randy. But Matty is a challenge away from being booted and randy has destroyed his bridges with former fang and is enemy number one. Bob and Kenny are dodging bullets like they are in the matrix.
Kenny dodged and now it is Bob’s turn. Crystal, Susie, Corrine, Charlie, and Sugar have been sub par and/or carried to this point in the game. But they are now in the driver’s seat. Those who have done the most are gone. Those who have done the least remain. Those in the middle are in danger of being booted. Thru it all we still have sugar and spice. Good and evil.

Fun times ahead in Eden.

In Eden we now have sugar and spice together. Sugar is sweet.
Corrine is sour. Sugar cries at every turn. She cries when she
does well, she cries when others don’t eat while she eats at
exile, she cries for Ace. Sugar cares. Corrine is insulting someone
at every turn. She is smug and hates Sugar and Susie.  She
wants to stab Susie in the face. She cannot stand Sugar.
Corrine cares about  Corrine. Sugar has been thrown into
poo poo several times and each times she finds diamonds.
She was sent to exile and found idol. She wasn’t picked for
a team and avoided tribal council while eating fruit at exile.
Others starve while she gets sent to fantasy island and
eats and sleeps good. She is never at camp yet doesn’t
miss out on food, shelter or strategy. She stinks at challenges
and gets immunity handed to her. She shrugs and gives up
in challenges yet she is so sweet no one cares. Her opponents
want her around and her allies need her. When her tribe
needed her in a challenge - each time she failed and directly
caused the loss. But you can’t hate her. She is sweet and caring.
You can’t help but like her. Corrine has been riding the bandwagon.
She has skated so well she could go to a roller disco and dance
to the theme song from Xanadu. She has never had to worry
about being booted. Someone was always less liked or weaker
and she has had good allies since beginning. She is middle of pack.
She is invisible in challenges as she doesn’t shine nor suck
horrible at them. Ace, Dan, Randy, and Marcus carried her and
last week it was Matty.  She is negative. She has had the least
amount of camera time of women (seems even Michelle had more
and she was in one episode) and usually it is anti-sugar or anti-susie.
She lost Susie from her tribe but gets Sugar back to hate on again.
She is in perfect skate position. She has numbers if her tribe stays
and bigger targets  (like Randy) for her enemies if no tribes. She
is sour and uncaring. You can almost see Emperor Palpatine telling
her the dark side of the force is strong within her. Fear leads to anger.
Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to the dark side of the force.

Eden is a funny place.

In the game of Survivor horrible performances are always magnified, and the social game for those contestants would be different. Courtnie and Katie wouldn’t have both been runner-ups like they were. Survivor is social game show with physical and mental competitions sprinkled in to give winners food and rewards and force the losers into a negative social situation. How we perceive someone is how we judge their performance. Ace was seen as a dick so many people did not give him credit for trying to manipulate and get an idol. Had Ace been Parvati, Cirie, or Natalie people would say it was a smart move.  But since Ace is a man he is just being a bully and a jerk. People are pre-judged and when they don’t live up to it they are called failures. No one expects much from someone weak and tiny so they skate in the game and they skate from criticism.
