S16 New Rankings Contest Week 9 call for entries and standings
Jason Wuthrich
Contest. Entries must be posted by 5:00pm ET on Thursday, April 10, 2008.
If you wish to play, simply reply to this thread. New players are welcome.
Ten survivors down and ten to go. The season is half over, but the NRC is
just warming up. Four out of the 15 players scored major hits with Ami's
elimination, and four other got minor hits. The rich got richer as B.N. and
Obveeus scored five points each, keeping B.N. in the lead with 18 points and
Obveeus remaining three back with 15. Nathan also scored a fat five to tie
Newton, who scored a 4-point minor hit, for third with 14. And it should
come as no surprise that the eight players who scored are the top eight
while the seven who didn't score are bringing up the rear.
I will admit that it was confusing sorting out the major hits and the minor
hits. But that phase is over with because the tribes are merging next week.
If you need to make drastic changes to your list, this is the time to do it,
because even if you do, assuming six episodes remaining, you could still
score a possible 27 points if you let it ride the rest of the way. It is
still anyone's game.

I'd prefer it if I had Eliza and Jason in the opposite order since the
preview hinted at the merge coming, but I don't want to take the hit for
shuffling positions so: LET IT RIDE!

Well, reluctant as I am to shuffle my list, having Parvati as my
projected first boot is not going to work once the tribes merge. So,
here is my new (and final :-)) version:
Jason
Eliza
Erik
James
Alexis
Natalie
Parvati
Amanda
Ozzy
Cirie
Thanks,
Zeppo

This episode and the preview gave us lots of clues about what will happen
next. First, there is a new girl alliance. Parvati has recruited Alexis and
Natalie. They decide to include Cirie and Amanda after the merge. The smart
move will make Parvati the winner of S16. Second, Amanda is jealous of
Alexis and she still leans on Ozzy. She will keep her options open until the
old favorite alliance and new girl alliance collide. Cirie should be able to
vote out men first then betray Amanda/Ozzy. Ozzy will successfully remove
James from the game and keep Alexis alive, just to find out he is the next
target after James. Third, Eliza, Jason and the "stick" try to control the
new merged tribe. They will target the remaining fans and only get tossed to
front of the bus after they reveal their plan to the people they shouldn't
trust. In the end game, Cirie, Natalie, Alexis and Parvati have controlled
the game and should go to the final four. Cirie is elimiated because pretty
girls are tight and she can't win the challenge. Parvati should have an easy
win against her two pawns in the final three. So I change my list
accordingly.
Ar Q -- Eliza, Jason, James, Ozzy, Erik, Amanda, Cirie, Natalie, Alexis,
winner Parvati.

Sorry that you didn't receive my last couple of LIRs. I must be having a
posting problem. Will make sure to follow up on this one to see if it's gone
through.
Anyway, even though I'm not sure if I like my list anymore, let it ride.

I think so. I checked Google Groups and didn't find your post. I did get
this one, though.
As for mine, as it stands right now, I have Alexis to go next, but more than
half the field has her in the F5, with one player having her to win. So I'm
going to have to rearrange the deck chairs, and now is the time to do it:
Eliza, Jason, Cirie, Ozzy, Erik, Natalie, Alexis, Parvati, James, Amanda
May lightning strike Jonny Fairplay if I'm wrong. ;-)

While anticipating a merge a switch at this time would be wise.
Problem is there is no reason to believe I would make the wise choice.
LET IT RIDE !!!

~besides BN picked Eliza to go next.
