If Terry happened to be in the final two, I think he'd win. He tried aligning himself with quite a few of the jury members. The only way that will backfire on him is if they hold it against him that he didn't do more to save them from elimination. I can see Sally and Austin voting for Terry to win, just because they're old tribemates. Bruce would likely vote for him, too. And, I'm pretty sure he'd get Courteney's vote, because they tried aligning, and he would get Shane's vote, because he hates Cirie and Aras now, after getting voted out.
Am I crazy? Did someone else mention that? If so, forgive me. I can't read every post.

Because the reality show gods hate me, Cirie will lose to Danielle in the fire challenge and then Terry will win the whole thing.
I'm rooting for Cirie massively, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up, because I know she has an extremely slim chance of making it to the final two.

Read this and you will perfectly understand why I don't like Terry. I swear, Miss Alli is my brain in written form sometimes.

I'm thinking Aras will be the winner at this point, something I wouldn't be too disappointed with.
Terry should probably make the final 2 no matter what. If he wins the challenge, he's in. If Aras or Danielle/Cirie wins, it'd be retarded not to take him as a victory would be almost ensured with the crap social game he's played. The only way he doesn't make it, is if Aras or Danielle/Cirie pulls a Lil(retarded decision) by not taking him.

At this point, I don't care who wins. I don't like any of the final four. The last person I liked was Sally.
Truth be told, Sally is the only person I liked this season.

I don't know how you can't like Cirie, dudette. She's so warm.

Cirie is one of my favorite Survivors ever, and Casaya is probably my favorite tribe ever (not to say that I would want to be around most of those people but they were ridiculously entertaining). I did like Sally but she was too much up Terry's butt for me to really root for her.
TonyMontana wrote: [spoil]All the spoilers seem to point to Aras finishing in the top 2. The only way I see him in there is if he beat Terry for the final immunity, and I don't see Aras taking Terry to the finals as he hates him. So, while I've heard some different spoilers that suggest Terry and Aras, I just can't figure out how that would happen. So, I think it is definitely Aras and Danielle. If that's the case I could see Danielle having a good shot at beating Aras. She'll get Terry's vote, Bruce's vote, and would get that one guy's vote that she was on Exile island with. Courtney would definitely be voting Aras as would Cirie. That leaves Shane and some other girl (I think?). If Danielle can sneak one of those votes, she'd have it locked up. It could happen. Oh well, I'm just happy knowing Terry will beat Cirie... and yes I knew that earlier and was hoping to bait you into my trap, but it didn't work.  Still it has to hurt knowing your "master strategist" is only finishing 4th place.  [/spoil]
[spoil] I'm definitely feeling an Aras win for the final three immunity challenge, just the vibe I've been getting overall. Terry wins everything up until last week, and then Aras pulls out a surprise win for the last three challenges. I've read those spoilers about Aras/Terry in the final two as well but they just don't make sense to me at this point either.
Danielle definitely has Bruce's vote. I've read a spoiler from someone who supposedly saw the last episode, and they say Terry is shown voting for Aras. Aras definitely has Cirie and Courtney also, so he needs one more vote to win. I don't think it will come from Shane (still bitter about the backstab) or Austin (bonded with Danielle on Exile Island), but it could come from Sally. Being a student of the show I think she would appreciate Aras's gameplay more so than Danielle, but who knows. Hmm I guess it will be closer than I had originally thought.
and while the Cirie loss will be sad, Terry being voted out immediately afterwards followed hopefully by Aras winning will be more than enough to make up for it! [/spoil]

One last time, before she is potentially eliminated...
GO CIRIE.

BOOOOOOOO.
God, she rocks so much.
I guess I'm rooting for Danielle or Aras? I don't really like any of these people, though, so I won't scream if Terry beats Aras or something.

Anyway, I don't know why I dislike her. What exactly is it that you like about her? Maybe I'm missing something.

I basically don't think Danielle can beat either Terry or Aras, so...she's pretty much screwed either way.
For my own personal sake, I hope she takes Aras, but I doubt she will.

God, *finally*. I would not have enjoyed seeing Terry win, considering what an awful strategic game he played.
So, Danielle and Aras.
Hmmmm...
Aras - Cirie, Shane, Courtney
Danielle - Austin, Bruce, Sally
I think Terry is going to be the swing vote, actually. Danielle may be able to pull out the win.

Yeah, but for playing such a "crap" game (as you guys see it), he came pretty damn close to winning it! If Danielle had taken him, he'd have beaten her with the jury. Well, at least Terry beat out Cirie... my life is complete.
I can't stand Ar-ass. His strategy at the end to try to strong arm Danielle almost cost him. I hope Danielle wins this, and I do think she's got it in the bag.

To me, a Survivor should not win just because they were physically dominant. Did you notice that Terry did not win challenges that weren't entirely physical? Whooops.
That's why I wouldn't want him to win.

And Aras takes it!
Well, I can't say I really liked Aras very much (although he did get a lot better towards the end), but his victory really was pretty well-deserved.
I wonder if he got 4 or 5 votes (we know Bruce and Shane voted for Danielle, I wonder if another person did).
I may be mistaken, but isn't Aras the first "young guy" to ever win Survivor?

The guy who won Africa was fairly young. I can't remember his name, though.

So, was this season as enjoyable as past ones? I stopped watching after a few episodes because I lost interest but I caught the final tribal council and it seemed alright.

Yeah, Aras won!! I never really noticed anything I didn't like about him, he did play a good game. Shane was blindsided no matter what and was bound to be hurt by someone.

I thought it was about on-par with Palau and Guatemala (so, very enjoyable).
It helped that seemingly half of the cast was crazy.

You would think Cirie won, not Aras, with the amount of time they've spoken to her.
AND I LOVE IT.
Cirie for President!

Oh well at least Cirie dominated the reunion show. I thought when Jeff said we would hear more from one of the most popular players ever it would be more of the Terry show but I was happily surprised!
I'm pretty pleased that Aras won, if it couldn't be Cirie then he was the second best choice. Terry actually would have managed to luck out with the jury since he never had to backstab anyone considering he was on the outs of the Casaya alliance the whole time. I think a more interesting question Probst should have asked was who would have won if we had a Terry/Aras finale. Danielle was pretty much dead in the water either way though, and while I thought it was a bit much for Aras to strong-arm her into taking him to the final two, that move could have ended up being what won him the game.
Oh and that final immunity challenge was tailor-made for a woman to win. Considering how ridiculously physical the majority of the individual reward/immunity challenges were this season though it seemed somehow appropriate.
and this ranks up there as one of my favorite Survivor seasons.
