Such a fun time guest-hosting the challenge last night! As an alum, I've never felt as connected to a cast since probably Hawaii. So it's been a while. I will be sad to see this season end soon.
I'm cheering for Sami for mostly boring GIRL POWER reasons, though I also find myself increasingly liking Chris and *gasp* even Craig. I seriously had no idea who Craig was until like 1 round ago when the whole Oreo thing happened. Then he won my ~GLORY SPOT~ challenge and was so hilarious. He could easily sneak out a surprise win if he goes to the finals with Aaron, yeah?
I'm assuming the next elimination will be either Chris or Sami. Craig's sitting pretty with a guaranteed F3 slot either way. If Chris goes at F4, I would ~love~ to see him win the final challenge and then wrestle with the decision of who to vote out: goat Aaron or BFF Sami?
K that's all for now. Back to the Glory Spot Castle with Nicole.

Aaron flipped to Chris so it tied 2-2 and so Chris and Craig had to do a TB puzzle and Chris won.

Aaron lost the game tonight. I fully believe he literally stands no chance against either Chris or Sami.
It woulda been tough against Craig but he had a shot.
Nope nope nope.

Aaron lost the game tonight. I fully believe he literally stands no chance against either Chris or Sami. It woulda been tough against Craig but he had a shot. Nope nope nope. Honestly, if Aaron makes the final two... I would find it hard for me to not vote for him to win. I mean I guess its because I know all he's done... but if he expresses himself as well as he does in his journal, I feel like he has so many awesome cases as to why he should win this game. Aaron was the middle man, the vote everyone needed and wanted almost EVERY round since the merge started. It takes a certain type of game player and a certain type of finessed style to pull of this strategy. Not only had he done this flawlessly, but he made it where it happened over and over and over literally, all the way to the final 4. And if he wins the final 3 IC, it'll be literally every TC he's been the one ppl needed and wanted. I duno, I feel like this kid deserves the win. So underrated, voted out everyone when he needed it. He used Sami as a pretty nice shield and yeah, took out everyone. I love Sami and Chris. Aaron winning would be well deserved on his part. Shocking and unexpected, yes, but no one can say he didn't control this bitch.

Nooooooo! Not Craig right after Nicole!!! This end game is insane. Also, I think Craig and Sassy should all have a record number of votes received, right?

For a female, yes. 12 votes + the 4 wiped from her total and any idol played on her.
This season now has the most tiebreak situations in iSurv1vor with 4, ending the 12 season run All-Stars had with 3.

And if Sami wins the final immunity she will be the most successful female in terms of individual competitions. Right now she is tied at 4 with FvF champ Lori

I agree with Sandy. Aaron played this game really well. People will be upset because he was viewed as "wishy washy" but he simply outlasted them. He was aware of his possible placements had he made other moves.
Specifically when people were upset with Aaron they didn't stay too long after that. He is aware that he played middle and did it a pretty calculated way. he is in a position now where he makes the finals regardless of final immunity. here the jury is fairly bitter towards both Chris and Sami. If Chris wins immunity Sami won't be too upset for being voted out by her friend Aaron. And of course the other way applies.
Sami and Chris both played well too but we're much more transparent in my opinion. Any of the three would make great winners though!

Totally 100% agree with Sandy, Aaron has literally had so much power and control through the whole game. Sami wouldn't even be here now if it wasn't for him.
The jury confuses me, though. Every single round they say Aaron is handing Sami the game, but I mean they're the ones voting, so he's only handing her the game if they vote for her? lol. They all know Sami will win the game if she makes the finals against Aaron, I think they just don't want to vote for her, but they know that they will vote for her because they refuse to vote for Aaron. That's what I'm getting out of their conversations in the Ponder1sa chat.
Also, I don't think they're iB1tter towards Chris at all. I think most of them want Chris to win.

I don't want to undermine sami's game because I think she has done a fantastic job and would be an amazingly deserving winner. But I feel so bad for Aaron, I feel that he's probably had the toughest road to the f3 out of the 3 of them, and the jury dislikes him so much. They are accusing him of not playing his own game and playing for Sami to win. But like sandy said, he has literally been the vote that everyone has needed every round. He is the reason Sami didn't waste her idol at f12. He is part of the reason Jeffrey and Robbie went home. He saved sami's life twice by voting out Daniel and Nicole. He has had so much power throughout the whole game, and the jury is just so iB1tter towards him.
Sure he might have beat Craig, but if he went to the f3 with Craig, he would risk Sami taking Craig to the finals. He has now put himself in a spot where he will make the f2 no matter what. Brilliant.

I don't think it's brilliant when he stands little chance beating either of them and I'm pretty sure he even knows that. Voting out Daniel and Craig - the two people he woulda been able to beat the easiest weren't smart, IMO. He should have tried reconciling with Craig or something- it would have been in both their best interests to go to the end together.
Yes he was the swing vote a number of times, but that's mostly because Sami was able to pull him over and out him in that position from the get-go, and then because that happened, he had been vied for time and time again by both sides, because Sami put him in that position lol.
I think Aaron had a lot of power in this game and yeah he made a lot of moves, but I don't think he did them right since almost the entire jury doesn't want to vote for him. He backstabbed too much, I guess - and for no other reason than to "protect Sami" most of the time. Or to protect Chris at f4 but Chris is the jury's favorite so idk how smart that was. Sure he's practically guaranteed f2 but IMO he is also guaranteed a loss at this point. That's not good... :/

And I disagree with whoever said he had the toughest road to get here lol. He was like rarely in danger... Maybe if saaki lost early on but it was never discussed and then he was in the middle of things because if Sami and no one was gonna hit the middle man.
