This is a response to: I disagree that the strongest were targeted right away. If you go back and watch the early episodes Tony is the major reason why they got knocked off.

Hard to say if it was a concerted effort to eliminate the biggest threats early, but that's pretty much what ended up happening. Other than Ciera

as the 1st out, it was a string of big threats after that... Tony (previous winner), Caleb (comp beast), Malcolm (all-around great player), JT (previous winner), and Sandra (previous winner).

xx * It's really only a spare if he still has 2 going into the F5 (the last time they can be used). Until the F6, I'd hang onto both as well unless

xx * I think winner's edit makes editing episodes tricky but this season seems more confusing than usual. That last episode had to be the worst episode

xx * I would really like more info on why Micheala left. Why did Sarah target her? How did Brad and Troy know to vote for her? Why was Cirie a lone vote

xx * Micheala was voted out because she was Cerie's friend and can win immunity and Cerie can't. Brad Troy and Sarah whispered to each other and....

xx * I think it's inevitable whenever you play an all-star season. Everyone knows who the threats are, and they get targeted.

xx * Exactly. I think The Weakest Link would have lasted longer had players not turned the show title on it's head and started eliminating the Strongest

xx * She made a ton of critical errors. Michele's game was far superior, especially her social game so I doubt she was boring. Not going to TC until
