#127 Cindy Hall: Guatemala (5th Place)


One of my personal favorites from Guatemala, I actually stopped watching the season after Cindy was voted off because I was so upset. I didn't finish the season until several months later when I decided to re-watch the season and actually get to the FTC. Cindy's most memorable moment by far came from the F5 reward challenge, which Cindy won. The notorious car challenge, nobody that had won the car had ever continued on to win the game due to the "curse of the car." Cindy was offered a chance to break this curse by giving a car to the other four contestants rather than herself. She chose to keep the car. This incensed Rafe and Danni who wanted cars and drove (see what I did there?) them to vote her off at 5 (which very well might have happened regardlessly). Cindy, however, got in the last word when she reminded the remaining four that she'll "think of them when [she] sees the stars through the sunroof of [her] new car."

#126 Bruce Kanegai: Exile Island (7th Place)


I have an enormous respect for Bruce. He got placed on the crazy Casaya tribe and was the oldest member there. And though he had some struggles (drinking the tribe's bottle of wine with Bobbie), he managed to keep his cool for the most part and earn the respect of his tribemates, particularly Danielle. Bruce made the merge as one of the Casaya 6 and was looking to be in a good spot when his bowels became blocked. He was in clearly excrutiating pain and had to be pulled from the game. In one particularly serious scene, Bruce is writhing in pure agony when his tribemate Courtney approaches him and asks him if a song would help, to which he replies "no." Not to be discouraged, Courtney Goddess serenades Bruce anyways until commanded to "please stop." Leave it to Courtney to make a medical evacuation humorous...but wait this is about Bruce. Would have loved to see what would have happened if Bruce remained in the game.

Bruce :love::love::love::love::love: so underrated.

Exile Island was the best season, the Casyana tribe has to be the best tribe in survivor history

as awful as it sounds his evacuation is one of the funniest episodes of Survivor ever. Casaya :love:

Shane, Aras, Danielle, Courtney, Bruce and Cirie :worship:

& Bobby :worship::worship::worship: and yeah Melinda too why not :worship:

Lol poor Melinda

She seemed pretty feisty. If only Terry could have been voted out that week. Can you imagine Casaya making it to the merge completely in tact? :love:

Next 5:

Thoroughly enjoying the list so far.

I think I've watched most of the seasons, but I don't seem to retain much of the info like where they were or what the tribe names were, so the write up are ideal :love:

#125 RC Saint-Amour: Philippines(11th Place)


A few rankings back I awarded Jane Bright the title "Queen of Bitter." Well, I'm revoking that title, because it's clear RC is more worthy of it. A member of the mighty Tandang tribe, the only reason RC made it to the merge was because she never had to go to tribal. RC started off on good terms with her tribe but later got involved in a feud with Abi that ostracized her from the others. Alienated because of a fight over the idol, RC was easy pickings for the newly merged tribe as her tribemates Pete and Abi were chomping at the bit to get her out. And RC won't forget it. Ever. She moaned about it at Ponderosa, she brought it up at the Reunion Show, RC will never let go of the fact that Tandang turned its back on her. And just to make our lives even more miserable, RC won Rob's Miss Survivor pageant and will reign over us for a whole year! :yuk: Sorry for the negative write-up, but I only included RC on this list because I felt obligated to.

I am glad you are enjoying it! :hugesmile:

I enjoyed the RC and Skupin alliance.

#124 Paschal English: Marquesas (4th Place)


Who could forget this adorable old man from Marquesas? The oldest man of the season, Paschal formed a strong friendship with young Neleh. Together this pair would team up with Kathy, Sean, and Vecepia to perform the first shift in power (against the Rotu 4) in Survivor history. I appreciate all five of these members as it stopped the season from being a straight pagonging. Paschal also holds the distinction of being the only Survivor to ever be eliminated by a rock (Debb would be jealous). At Final 4 there was a deadlocked tie that had to be broken by drawing rocks from a bag. Whoever pulled the purple rock, which was Paschal in this case, would be eliminated. The fear of this kind of tiebreaker occuring has scared several players into flipping since (Cirie in Micronesia, John in Samoa, Cochran in South Pacific)

I liked her until she got to Ponderosa and she just sort of bugged me. Plus I always thought Abi was the more entertaining of the two.

#123 Laura Alexander: Caramoan (16th Place)


"I always notice a bulge."
It pains me immensely to take Laura out of this ranking before the top 100. In my opinion Laura was the fan with the most strategic potential. She knew what she was doing out there, and managed to survive being targetted despite her weakness in challenges thanks to her Shamar shield. Of course that strategy was blown to pieces when Shamar got "medically evacuated," which is one of those things you simply can't plan for. Once as Shamar was gone, Eddie and Reynold switched their priorities to challenge strength, Matt and Michael flipped on their alliance, and Sherri and Julia had no choice but to follow suit. For being kicked out as early as she was, Laura received an amazing amount of airtime. I know it's a long-shot, but I would LOVE to see what this girl could do if she was to play again and make the merge.

Terry should have just not been on Exile Island in the first place

Laura:love::love::love:

#122 Christa Hastie: Pearl Islands (6th Place)


Christa's write-up comes with a personal story, as I will tell myself that you all will be interested to hear. As it happens, Christa was the first favorite I ever had in Survivor. The first episode I ever saw was Tijuana's boot, which I saw at my Aunt's house. I immediately fell in love with both the show and Christa, which started my present day survivor obsession. Unfortunately for childhood me, Christa was taken out in the very next episode, which devastated me. I knew heartache so well at a young age obviously...There is more to the story to my very first season of Survivor fanhood, but I will save that for another Pearl Islands castaway's write-up.

On the island Christa was strong allies with Rupert and Sandra. And while Rupert is not my favorite, I always loved Sandra and Christa together. Christa was blamed by her tribe for dumping out a pail of fish after Rupert's blindside. She was innocent from the accusation (it was Sandra's doing), and poor Christa was emotionally traumatized for something she never even did.

I liked her, her getting blamed for throwing the fish was sad. Do you know if her and Sandra are still close, I was moved in the final with she started crying when Sandra won

#121 Bobby Jon Drinkard: Palau (10th Place), Guatemala (9th Place)


Forgive me as I awe over this man's beauty, but I'm not sure how many attractive men are left on this list (and by not sure I mean too lazy to go through and look).

Starting off Palau on the disastrous Ulong tribe, Bobby Jon watched in horror as he voted off his tribemates one-by-one-by-one-by-one-by...you get the idea. His brute strength, hardworking nature, and an agreement with Stephenie protected him until Ulong was down to two. Engaged in a fire-making challenge to break the obviously deadlocked tie, Bobby Jon was sent home when Stephenie won the challenge.

In a twist for Guatemala, Bobby Jon was brought back with fellow castaway Steph for a second chance at the game (which was the first time two returnees were introduced to a season). Bobby fared better at this season and was able to make it to the jury section of the game. Coming in with the minority numbers, however, Bobby Jon was soon taken out by former teammate Stephenie once again. Before leaving, however, Bobby Jon provided us with a humorous rivalry against Jamie (made even more humorous by their friendship formed once united as jury members).

You know I'm not really sure. I haven't heard too much about Christa post-Survivor. I hope so though!

Christa <3

I ****ing hate RC but I sort of... love to hate her I guess so I'm okay with her being here.

Christa <3

I can't stand Bobby-Jon and I've always felt like nobody else ever has had the same opinion. To me he came across self-righteous as **** (especially in his rivalry towards the true king of Guatemala, Jamie <3) and for whatever reason I find him repulsive anyway so that doesn't help.
