THE NUMBERS GAME: The dumbest move in Survivor history remains Colby handing Tina the $1,000,000 by not taking Keith into the finals of season two, but Terry's move this week is a close second. (Okay, maybe third, depending on your read on Lex's trusting Rahb and saving Amber in All-Stars.)
Situation: you're down 6-4 coming into the merge. You've first screwed this up by not offering anyone in the other tribe a better deal than what they've already got. But you do have the hidden immunity idol, which you can wield at Tribal Council to eliminate someone from the other tribe and make it a 5-4 (with Bruce sway-able) -- but that's only if you can first lure the other group int voting for you. He's clearly the alpha male target, so that's not a problem. What is? Dumbass macho boy from Simsbury up and wins immunity -- the only thing that could've screwed up the plan. Result: his idol remains in the holster and that one of his few allies is eliminated.
So now he's down 6-3, and Miss Alli is right -- without an interesting narrator like Rahb or Fireman Tom, this game can be really boring when played correctly. And Shane's just not that interesting. He's loathsome, and not in a fun way.
Anyone else watching this season?
