Tony is dangling that II in front of his 3 followers saying he'll give it to them if they are in jeopardy of going home. So they're thinking they have to keep him around for "their game" not knowing it really isn't that big of a sacrifice for him to give up the II. He'll just turn around & use the special idol.

I do like the idea of the special idol way better than redemption island.

So does Tony only have one more TC to use his idols? Or two?

Me too.

I wonder if Woo makes it to the final three with Kass and Tony he will win not because he played a good game because he didn't or because he is most deserving because he isn't but because it's just that he is not obnoxious like the other two.

Jurors loose sight of the principle of the game and end up voting personally. Russell should have won, hands down but he didn't. I hate to say this but Tony should win, followed closely by Kass. The �� side of me doesn't want either of them to win and see Spence win now but the �� in me sees that they are outwitting, outlying and so far, outlasting the others. That's supposed to be the name of the game.

While I agree with your assessment, you can also make the case for Spencer (even though he didn't really make any big moves). Spencer, Kass and Tasha all had their backs to the wall right off the bat as they saw the entire brains tribe get decimated.

Tony, as a member of the brawn tribe, was in a good position pretty much the entire season as they dominated most of the challenges so he was never really in 'survival' mode like the remaining brain tribe members were.

If the Final 3 are Tony, Kass and Spencer, Spencer is gonna win it in my opinion. Tony, despite playing a good game, pissed off too many people so ppl will look for someone else to vote for. They won't vote for Kass b/c of her flip flopping and for also pissing ppl off. Spencer just needs to come up with a good testimony as to why he should win (which I think he will) and he'll take it.

Girl it is time to swallow that bitter pill your man didn't win. You're correct Russell & Tony are both playing "the game" better than the rest have.

You're right about the brains fighting since day one. I wasn't remembering the whole picture. I do hope Spencer wins.

True, but it is also a social game. Tony may be clever but he has pissed off many people. Russell did too. The problem with Tony and Russell is that they played the game too smart for their own good. When people get to that high a level of cleverness and ruthlessness without a little social grace the default often goes to the Woos and the Tinas of the game who flew under the radar or who were just pleasant enough to encourage the jury to vote them the win just out of spite against the Tonys and Russell types who were the better strategists but not so great in the people pleasing department.
