Clearly the two crowd favorites are Cirie and Terry. Also, I found it cool when everybody said that Terry had gained favor and "respect" in the Casaya tribe, and would have even beat Danielle 5-2 in a final vote. Shows what a load of bullshit your guys's "crap game" theory was. Hell, even Aras was going to vote for him.
Terry played the perfect game... lots of respect from the players and jury, he was a fierce competitor, but also not too well liked to be seen as a threat. The finale proved that Cirie was far too well liked (making her a target). Factor that in with the fact she was HORRIBLE in the competitions/challenges, and you can see why she finished 4th place behind Terry.
I felt very vindicated to find out that the entire Casaya tribe was cool with Terry to the point they would have voted for him over one of their own tribe, and that he did in fact turn several of their members, but it was just that the bulk of the group caught on each time and got rid of the person he turned.
Lastly, I should say, that I'm mostly having fun with you guys about Cirie... she's ok. It was just awfully fun this year debating Terry vs. Cirie... it's just too bad that one of them didn't win it. In all honestly, I liked both of them more than Aras or Danielle. Overall it was a great Survivor this year... I loved the additions, like Exile Island and the hidden immunity idol.

Good end and deserving win to end a pretty darn good season of Survivor, just having Shane in this bunch puts it above the rest. Everyone else was pretty charasmatic, and generally entertaining too. I think I have it above Guatamala, Vanuatu, Thailand, Marquesas, Pearl Islands(barely), and tied with Palau. So because I didn't see Season 1, that makes it tied for 5th. Thumbs up to the producers for continuing the quality after all these years.

If he played the perfect game he would have won! I do admit though that his game wasn't quite as bad as I thought it was...I still think that overall it wasn't very good. He would have won the game against Danielle only because he never really had to play the social part of the game, never had to backstab anyone, since he always seemed to be as blindsided by the vote as the person voted out. While being completely clueless and awfully lucky is an interesting strategy that will gain you little enemies I don't find it all that impressive. I'm more a fan of the master manipulator than the perplexed powerhouse (go alliteration go!) but of course a bitter jury still reeling from the knives in their backs often thinks the opposite. Different strokes for different folks though I suppose.
I do think however that Terry played a better game than Danielle (way too wishy-washy) so I agree with the jury in that respect. You know you've played a bad game when you don't have a chance against either of the people you've made it to the final two with...heck out of the final six I think the only person Danielle could have won against was Courtney.
