So we're in the midst of the Survivor off-season, and although Big Brother is starting to heat up, it still seems like a painful wait until Blood vs. Water. Inspired by the recent ranking threads on this site (thanks Ben

) and countless other Survivor rankings I've read at Sucks over the years, I've decided to do a ranking of my own. Criteria will be based mainly off of strategy, entertainment value, and memorable moments, but of course personal preference always plays a part in such decisions (I will avoid it as much as possible).

Anyways, I've started making a list of the top candidates and currently have a little over 150 potential candidates for the list. Please submit any suggestions as although I've been meticulous I could very well have left off someone important. I will keep the list open for suggestions until 7:00 P.M. tomorrow, so feel free to post here or PM me if there are any Survivors you'd like to see in the top 150 (please provide some form of justification). I'll use that to create an honorable mentions list and start the rankings from there. I don't expect this list to be a crazy hit here on a big brother site, but I'll enjoy it, and if even one of you guys likes it it will be worth the effort

#150 Julia Landauer: Survivor Caramoan (13th Place)

As I said in the OP, I have tried my best to keep personal bias out of this ranking. That being said, I couldn't resist putting my favorite Caramoan Fan on this list. Realistically, despite finishing 13th place and just missing the merge, Julia has no business being on this list. Having at best a minimal edit, Julia was one of three invisible young girls this season. The beauty in Julia, however, was her humor in regards to her portrayal on the show. Julia's twitter feed often made light of her scarcity of air time, and she would later hold a contest as to what her true Stealth-R-Us nickname should have been.

Although she may not have made ripples with her time on the Caramoan Islands. I enjoyed her personality enough to include her here (for once I disagree with Corinne).

#149 Laura Morett: Survivor Samoa (10th Place)

I have to admit that I was wary of putting Laura on this list because I'm not sure what to say about her. A member of the self-destructing Galu tribe, she likely wouldn't have made this list at all if it wasn't for

Spoiler:

That being said, Laura was one of the more memorable players on her season (though that doesn't say much). As a strong-willed bitch, Laura got taken out mainly because she was Russell's biggest threat on the Galu tribe. After being taken out in a nail-biting tie-breaking (thanks John Fincher), Laura's elimination paved the way for the Foa Foa's to make it to the end. Also notable for being irrationally hated by Shambo, Laura remains to be a giant question mark in my mind as one of those players that "could have been, but never really was." If she plays again I can see an interesting character emerging

GypsyGoth · 12-07-2013, 06:40 PM

I recognise both, but don't remember much about either.

reece(: · 12-07-2013, 06:42 PM

I always followed Julia's tweets, she was so humorous of her almost non-existent edit. Would have been great if she made the merge.

Laura's one of my favourites from Samoa because she was the leader of anti-Russell and saw his bull**** and I look forwards to her

#148 Ashley Underwood: Redemption Island (4th Place)

As I continue to take out players who arguably have no merit to be on this list, I come to the 4th place finisher from my least favorite season ever. As one of several of Rob's zombies, she was the only one I would ever say sort of woke up (not counting Andrea as she had to be voted out to smell the coffee). In a relentlessly boring season that was an obvious build-up to Rob's victory, Ashley was one of the only players that left a smidgeon of doubt as to the outcome of the season. Her late-game immunity wins foiled Rob's plans to take her out earlier, and at the time of the season I was foolish enough to dream that her and Natalie would band together to take Rob out at final four. She ending finishing up in a predictable fourth place finish...booted before FTC as the only player with any potential to beat Rob. So, Ashley, thanks for trying, but I hope never to see you again.
