Survivor: Fiji

Dreamz is a freakin moron and was lucky to be there, and got what he deserved SHUT OUT in voting, first time in Survivor history thats awesome! The right guy won since Yau was gone!

The woman in the final three of the finale of Cook Islands was also shut out, but this was the first sweep in Survivor history.

He was not lucky to be there. He controlled his faith by backstabbing people in his alliances. Cassandra was lucky, the girl in Cook Islands was lucky, Rupert's followers were lucky in previous Survivors, but Dreamz won by strategy. Like Yau Man said, he just didn't seem to be able to put everything together so he seemed really stupid.

In all honestly I liked Cassandra's game. She did the most that she could do for an unathletic Survivor that can't swim and limited leadership skills. She obviously was riding the coattails of others, but she subtly changed the game a lot more than most of the coat-tailers on the show do.

To an extent I agree. If you really look she was closest to Dreamz, I think she figured if there's a final 2, the one person you want against you is Dreamz, the one you don't, is Yau. So everytime the name of yau getting voted out came up, she immediately piped up and said I'm in.

She was smart enough to align with the strong players, and smart enough to be totally willing to switch up to get one of them out. In the end, her one mistake was she couldn't control at the final 5 when Yau won immunity and Earl had the idol. Her dream 3 would have been her, Boo and Dreamz, but that didn't happen and she had no prayer of beating Earl or Yau.

Great season, they do a great job of mixing the game up so it doesn't get stale.

I felt bad for Yau, if Dreamz had kept his deal, Yau wins the million bucks. But it IS a game and Dreamz is right in saying that, he was going home next, and he knew that. He had no chance of winning anyways it became very clear at the final that the jury had finally figured out Dreamz was selling them all out.

actually, i disagree. not giving yau the necklace was tantamount to being voted out anyway. if had half a brain he would have realized that he could never win when everyone saw he broke his promise to yau.

his only shot at winning would have been to go to yau before the council and tell him that he will absolutely give up the necklace, but yau needs to promise to vote for cassandra instead of him. with a split dreamz/cassandra vote, there would be a tiebreaker, which dreamz would definitely win. not going back on his word would also help him gain some jury votes.

That makes a lot of sense, cut a deal off the deal, I'll honor it but you don't vote me out.

I don't think he had a shot at winning but you are right that reneging clinched that he had no shot at all.

i agree, he never would have beaten yau, but i think he would have gotten a few votes.
