I really cannot figure Sandra and Christa, especially Sandra, they had a golden chance to get rid of Burton, and just like like should've got Jon when they had the chance, Sandra gets talked out of it by Sleeze bag Jon and Votes off T instead??? I mean where's the logic in that? :evil: :evil: :evil: If I were Jon, I'd be a bit concerned about returning to life in the USofA after his recent effort of being lower than a snakes belly button! Some looney there is likely to take a pot shot at him.

does anyone else think rupert is coming back? last night at tribal council he was in the same clothes as he was when he was kicked off and hadnt tidied himself up or anything where the other guy had showered, shaved, was in new clothes etc.
Was he?? I don't recall him being in a dress on Monday night.... I think he was wearing pants with a singlet shirt. And he came to the game with a beard, which would be why he hadn't shaved it off. It would be too late in the game to bring anyone back now... I think that suggestion is way off course. IMO, the 6 that are left will be the only ones competing for the remainder of the game.

I don't know if it was such a bad move. It toook a lot of convincing to get T on their side in the first place, so they'd know that she probably wouldn't keep them around for long either (which T was planning to get rid of Sandra and Christa). Darrah is a follower of T, and now she has no-one to follow. She knows she has no chance against Burton and Jon, so she should stick with Sandra and Christa, who she has more of a chance against. That's 3 on 3, if they can get Lill, that'd be 4 on 2... I see it as that they still have the numbers in this game.

And by the previews of this week with Lill being told by Burton that she wouldn't be going to the final 2, that may just swing it their way. Also, I feel Burton made a tactical error when he said people in alliances shouldn't trust each other, but should stick together for a common goal... if I heard that and I was in his alliance, I wouldn't feel too good and would be changing plans pretty quickly. But, anything can happen in this game, and we see only a very small part of the whole thing... who knows if anything else happened between the 2 girls and T... they might not of showed us something critical to that decision being made.

As for Jon... all I'll say is that he is one complete wanker... and his mate isn't much better....

But when they sent the others to the other place for the day... to make it more interesting, they should have told them that was their new place for the rest of the game and had them start from scratch again... just to make it interesting....

In her Survivor chat T said that Christa had some matches and wouldn't give them to anyone to light a fire. Jon asked T to go and threaten Christa about the matches, because according to Jon, Christa likes T better than him (which is true). So (stupidly) T went up to Christa and said "If you don't give us the matches we'll be voting you out tonight". Christa still didn't give them the matches.

Can someone tell Christa to blow her nose?

Antonios hasn't commented on this weeks episode yet, I suspect he is still dry retching from seeing Lil in her knickers :shock: ;-)

Christa's CBS Chat
"My fabulous husband thinks that I was absolutely fabulous! He thinks I'm the greatest player in the world."
SNN
Friday, December 5, 2003

Host: Hey Christa! Thanks for being here today. Are you ready to talk to take some questions?
Christa: I'm more ready than ever! Bring it on!

Q: Did you feel that is was all over for you after Rupert was voted out?
C: No, there's always hope. I always had hope. Always gotta have hope because Sandra and I were pretty sneaky all the time and could come up with ways to save ourselves yet another day just like a whole situation with T. We were able to save ourselves on several occasions before Rupert left also. So, all the time...I was just trying to work every angle.

Q: Hi Christa, If Burton told you that everyone was going to vote out Sandra, would you have gone with the flow?
C: Absolutely. I would've done anything to move one more spot ahead and at the final six that's kind of how it goes... every man's on their own.

Q: Christa, why did you and Sandra go with Jon last week instead of the female alliance?
C: Well, what you didn't see is that Tijuana threatened me telling me that if I don't hand over the only working lighter we bought in the village then they would switch their vote from Burton back to me. I figured well if Tijuana could actually pull it off and tell Jon and Burton about Christa now then I would be indeed the next to go. So, essentially I figured I might as well vote out T if it was going to be me...why not? More one more spot ahead...carry on!

Q: Christa, you were so close to the end and the $1 million. Any one mistake that you can point out that lead to your exit?
C: I had a real problem with boring people like Darrah and Lil so basically I could've tried a little harder to talk to them even though they'd just sit their with their mouths hanging open catching flies. *laughs* It was kinda hard but I could've talked to them more.

Q: What is your thoughts on the whole Jon's Dead Grandma thing and when did you find out about the deception?
C: Well, I think Jon did a great job in lying about that and everybody all fell for it by giving up their visit with their loved ones at the reward challenge. However if you look back at what you'll see Sandra and myself were the only two people rolling our eyes at Jon the entire time. Basically, it was a really bad act, we'd already heard about this grandma on several occasions before. As far as we knew... we'd already speculated that it was a lie and we weren't buying it. So, the day after we got back from the other island Jon was smiling away, happy go lucky and that's not quite the reaction you get from someone when their grandma just died. Unfortunately, like the fish incident it was something we couldn't prove so I didn't even attempt to talk about it or bring it up. Also, especially Tijuana's mother had an illness and other people's family members who had illness, it was sort of inappropriate to bring it up.
C: I found out 100% for sure when the show aired.

Q: Did you ever voice your disbelief about his grandmother to the others?
C: Just Sandra and I. We talked about it often but we had no guts. We couldn't bring it up, we couldn't prove it so... if you couldn't prove it... we didn't want to look like insensitive idiots.

Q: Christa, do you think Jon's big lie was a fair tactic to use?
C: I think Jon is one of the best Survivor player ever in Survivor history so sure it was a great tactic to use. I wish I'd thought of that one myself but who knows how much it actually helped him but it's obvious no one knew the truth. It worked out for him in his favor.

Q: Christa, you took the heat for Sandra's fish-capade. How do you feel about her now? Still friends?
C: I did take the heat for that. I never would've thrown the fish out in the first place but if I did do something that stupid I wouldn't have fessed up to doing it. We're not allowed to talk to each but Sandra and I were close out there and she was always my buddy and I could talk to her there so I'm sure we'll be friends when I see her at the reunion show.

Q: Did you have a crush at any time on any other Survivor? Who was it?
C: Let me tell ya, I had a wonderful wonderful man waiting at home for me who is now my wonderful husband and all the guys out there... there's a reason why they're all about thirty and single.

Q: Hi Christa, what would you say was your most embarassing moment of your time on the island?
C: When everybody went to go look for the treasure chest Jon and I stayed behind and decided to swim to an island that only comes up during low tide to look for the treasure chest and our way swimming back we ended up thrown against the rocks when we got out of the water we were bleeding all over the place and swearing left and right. It was embarassing, my top was falling off, his shorts were falling off! It was so painful! We couldn't stop laughing. It was funny and embarassing all at the same time!

Q: Hey Christa, we hated so much to see you go. How badly do you think the outcasts twist affected the game?
C: I hated to see me go too! *laughs* But the outcast twist... you know, it was just part of the game. I didn't think any differently about it because it's not like we wanted to get rid of the outcasts right away. None of us thought about it too much except for a few members when we got back to camp before they returned. Other than that we just... game played on as usual... I mean you have to keep surviving no matter what happened, y'know? The game was still on.

Q: Why where you keep accusing Ryno for missing stuff? Did you have any evidence or was it a strategic move or was personal?
C: I didn't really ever actually accuse Ryan of stealing anything. It just happened he was the first person I'd glance at when I talked about people taking things from camp. It seemed he was having a hard time out there and people start to take things personally. Sorry! I wasn't directing anything at him personally.

Q: What is your opinion of Lil? Which outcasts would you have liked to see return?
C: I think Lil is a hard worker but rather annoying at the same time 'cuz she doesn't shut up about how sorry she is about every single thing and she constantly sings her boy scout oath. I was just hoping she'd sing a new song after a while... anything but that. I really hoped that Lil or.. Ryan Shoulders actually. I felt I could possibly bond with him.

Q: Why do you think Rupert still looked pissed in the jury?
C: *laughs* Probably because he is so pissed! Rupert takes things very personally and y'know, you can't betray Rupert and he felt like he was betrayed. I always say being in an alliance with Rupert is like being in the mafia... once you get in you can't get out. And now he's out... fortunately he can't hurt anybody quite yet!

Q: Christa, what was your first impression of Rupert... the instant you first saw him?
Q: Well, I thought Rupert was this big hippy guy and I grew up in a small artsy hippy town so I used to hang out with these hippy types. He seemed very jolly and I thought this person would be a good person to align myself with. He seemes like he'd be genuine and trusting.

Q: Who do you think would have won in a hand-to-hand battle... Jon or Sandra?
C: Definitely Sandra but Jon wouldn't go down without a fight! Actually, I would love to see that!

Q: What would have been the best reward challenge prize - underwear for Rupert or bra for Lil?
C: Well, the underwear for Rupert would've been good "cuz then he would have been able to lend his underwear to Lil when he needed to take a brake! *laughs* I don't know... thanks for asking though!

Q: Christa, do you still have the tatters of your blue dress?
C: Yes, I do! It's one of the sexiest outfits I own. As well as I have the tatters of Rupert's skirt that he first wore out there. And of course my other wonderful line that I produced with the old sewing machine. Pirate pants, fabulous aqua shirt.

Q: How many times did you try out for the show?
C: I sent in my video tape and application once before for Survivor 2. But never again until this time. It was meant to be....

Q: Who is your favourite Survivor from other seasons and your favourite Survivor location?
C: I'd have to say Kelly Goldsmith from Season 3. She was on Africa and had a lot of spunk and personality. My favourite location probably would've been Palau Tiga (season 1).

Q: Christa, who are you anxious to confront at the reunion show?
C: I can't wait to dis on Osten ... what a loser!

Q: What type of person would you suggest should not be on Survivor?
C: Equity trade managers from Boston! *laughs*

Q: Why did Jeff call you a "freak" at the food challenge?
C: 'Cuz I am the biggest freak you'll ever meet! I am a FREEEEEAK! *laughs*

Q: Christa, did tyou ever come close to quitting the game?
C: Quitting? Nah! There were some times I thought it really sucked out there but weeks passed by. I mean, you get used to your lifestyle out there so why would you quit?

Q: "The Game" more mentally challenging than you had anticipated?
C: Defintely more mentally challenging than I originally anticipated. To stay up half the night wondering what everyone else is thinking, laying out your stories you're going to tell the next day in your mind, talking to yourself in your head. It sucks because you have to think of every situation to move yourself ahead in the game and you have to talk to so many people and figure out way to work with them. It's really really hard. harder than you would think.

Q: Christa, did any of your opinions on the Survivors change from during the game to when watching the show?
C: No.

Q: There is alot of lying and deceiving on this show. What is the biggest lie you told?
C: When I was accursed of throwing out the fish I had to find someway to get out of it even though I didn't do it. Basically, in front of everybody I said to Jon and Burton... I said I heard you guys just before we left for tribal council were going to set me up and you were going to throw out the fish to make it look like I was so upset that my buddy Rupert got voted out and it'd be the perfect way to get Christa voted out. So, I made up a conversation that Jon and Burton never had to try and shift the blame to Jon and Burton.

Q: Hi Christa. You are one hot mama! Playboy or no?
C: Show me the money!!! *laughs*

Q: Christa, what one word would you use to describe each of the remaining castmates?
C: Darrah - boring, Lil - boring, Jon - sneaky, Sandra - sneaky, Burton - I can't even think of a word for Burton! I got it! B-L-E-H... for Burton!

Q: What one word would describe you best?
C: Freak!

Q: Did you realize you were exposing yourself to all America last night when you were diving?
C: I wish I hadn't blurred it all out, because they look pretty nice! But yes, of course, my top always fell down and I'm quite proud of everything underneath!

Q: Christa, Andrew seemed really cocky and arrogant. What was your opinion of him?
C: I think that Savage never should have let on that he was actually a lawyer 'cuz he came across like a stereotypical lawyer. He was too smooth for the Survivor operation.

Q: Do a lot of people recognize you when you are out around doing your normal everdyday things?
C: Oh, yes, yes... everywhere I go people call me by my name and greet me with a big smile. People in the grocery store always ask what I'm shopping for and I'm making pumpkin pie! *laughs*

Q: Christa, does Rupert make eye contact with anyone at tribal council?
C: All I know is that I made eye contact with Rupert. We used to have a special blinking of our eyes to let each other know what was going on. A very slow blink. First tribal council after he was voted out we let each other know that we missed each other but... carry on! We were carrying on.

Q: Christa, you seem really strong... did you train before going on the show?
C: In exchange for lots of personal training I created a web site for a local gym so I was able to prepare for the show. Thanks!

Q: How did it feel to stand right with the men during that strength challenge with the sandbags?
C: I was a total rockstar during that challenge! 175 lbs and I beat out Osten and I beat out Shawn! Shawn again, is one of the biggest wusses I've ever met.

Q: Hey Christa, what did your husband think of the way you played the game?
C: My fabulous husband thinks that I was absolutely fabulous! He thinks I'm the greatest player in the world.

Q:How are you spending your time while you are in NY? Any appearances coming up?
C: I'm having fun my first time in NYC! The L.A. girl is freezing but loving it! It's snowing right now. I'm not around snow too often. I'm going on Nickelodeon's U Pick Live and Letterman on Monday night so ...look for me there! Or be square! *Laughs* Don't forget to watchg the fabulous reunion show where we all battle it out!

Q: So did you incorporate any Survivor theme into your wedding? Keep the tree man?
C: No, no Survivor theme in my wedding. It was the beautiful outside garden wedding I'd always dreamed of having with all our great friends and family. No statue of the wooden Peter. *laughs*

Q: Did you baby talk a lot with Rupert as Jon suggested?
C: Rupert had a hard time out on the island. He felt he wasn't appreciated enough. Often I'd give him a massage here and there after he went fishing five hours a day and kill and gut the fish so he didn't feell he was the only one doing all the work at camp.

Q: Did you feel you rubbed people the wrong way out there? Or you didn't realize it until later?
C: I feel that a lot of epole didn't like me but that's everyday life in general! A lot of pepple like me and a lot of people don't. I have a personality and some people can handle it and some people can't, y'know?

Q: Your gun skills were great. Were you lying when you said that you never held a gun before?
C: Absolutely no but I tell ya' my father in law would be very very proud of me.

Q: Why did the tribe dislike Darrah so much?
C: Because the only two things Darrah ever talked about were chocolate chip cookies and how -- *using Mississippi drawl* -- "My daddy will buy me a boob job for Christmas! I hope my Daddy'll buy me one!"

Q: Is playing on Survivor the hardest thing you ever done in your life?
C: No, I think taking care of my dad who was sick and dying for five years was probably one of the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.

Q: Have you gone back to work and your old life?
C: I quit my full-time job working for the big "man" right before I left to go on Survivor and I'm now working for myself. I have my own little website design company. Split interactive and I'm planning on continuing doing some modeling part-time while being a wonderful housewife to my beautiful husband!

C: Keep watching! I can't wait for the reunion show and make sure to check out ChristaHastie.com when it goes live in a couple of weeks, I'm working on it. Rock on, poeple! Have fun" Live life! Peace![/i]

Urggggg she is so ugly, I keep expecting her false teeth to pop out, whoever made them should give her a refund. What about her Hubby, they're a good pair, how'd you like a pup from their litter? :lol: :lol: :lol: I have to admit the shows lost a lot of interest for me since old rupe got the flick, It's becoming too predictable, the players left all have the personalities of wart hogs. Sandra is prob my favourite player now, but if it runs to script she'll be gone next week unless she can get Immunity. Lilo Lill please no don't let her win, she'll spend the whole of the reunion show telling everyone she's sorry!!! I just cannot stand her, I cringe every time she appears.

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Horrible Jon didn't win!

While watching tonight's show/s I started to think that perhaps I have been too hard on Lil. She definitely has shown some good points over the course of the series, which were to some extent overshadowed by the sour expression on her face.

However I do believe that the niceness (sorry, I don't think that's a word!) that she protrayed was not an act - I think it was mostly real. I also liked her consideration in choosing Sandra to go with her to the final two. I don't believe she could have handled seeing Jon winning, and frankly neither could I!!! And Lil seemed to be at peace with her decision.

When it came to the crunch, it was Sandra's forthrightness that got her over the line.

Oh and I have to say - wasn't it great to see Rupert talk about his improved confidence and self esteem at the reunion show :D

Rupert's a legend, enough said, I thought he came across pretty well last night, he'll be a lot wiser in the "best of survivour". I was pleased Sandra won it after D got the flick. Can’t agree with you about Lilo Lill Astro, she was almost unbearable at the end, I thought that letter she got was going to end up as paper mashé, the teary stuff was overdone, and too me came across as extremely false. Then at the final tribal council, every time she opened her mouth she dug her own grave. It was good she took Sandra with her, (good, but silly) if she’d taken Jonny Fairplay she’d have won. Really Sandra was pretty smart, she never went overboard screwing anybody, she went unnoticed for the best part of the game, and it paid off for her. The best of survivour should be a ripper of a show.

antonius, DMC and CH's comments are causing me to consider that perhaps I can be a bit too accepting of the way a person appears to be. I am definitely overly optimistic about human nature, especially in forming an opinion about a person's honesty and upfrontness...

Lill is just one of those naive people in the world... she knew people were backstabbing her, she whinged about it. Yet she was doing exactly the same thing to other people... and she whinged about that as well. She was never upfront or honest about anything, she just liked people to think she was while she absolutely demanded it from anyone around her. Her ultimate act of stupidity: taking Sandra to the final 2 when she would've beaten Jon easily, just so she could deny him of $100000 that Sandra could've used better.

Bottom line was, she didn't deserve to win after she was voted out the first time. That "outcasts" twist really brought the series down.

There are not too many people I can't get along with or accept for what they are, saying that, Lilo Lill is one type of person I don't have time for, she did all the things she grizzled about other people doing! I honestly thought she'd lost her marbles at the end, she seemed to be acting out a role, and doing it very badly. All the crying,miserable looks, feeling victimised when People promised her something then didn't deliver, ( that's what the game is all about!!) What did she expect? Voted off Burton because he wouldn't take her to the final two, then voted off D because she wouldn't promise to do the same!! again what did she expect? To be honest she didn't deserve to be back in the game anyway(as has been mentioned) her and Burton got two bites of the cherry, that luxury wasn't given to anyone else. There were a lot of others who IMO deserved to go further than either of those two Savage is one that stands out. Good old Lilo was given an armchair ride in some respects, she was an easy touch and Burton,Jon and c/o exploited that.

I think I sometimes forget that the game is not about niceness - so I suppose that means that whether I am right or wrong about Lil's character is irrelevant, since the game is not about the most deserving person necessarily being the winner. IMO luck is a major force.

I don't believe luck has anything to do with this game at all. It's all about strategy. If you play too hard like Rupert, you're too strong and they'll get rid of you. If you're weak and don't contribute, they'll get rid of you. You just have to balance it all out. Do your work, don't get into fights. Make your alliances and don't get too attached to them. Someone just should've said to Lill, "I can't vote for such and such if they get immunity, so I can't gaurentee anything." Lill just couldn't figure stuff out for herself and she kept blaming everyone else for things she could've taken responsibility for.

Niceness or lack of has nothing to do with it either. The wankiest person on their ended up with nothing and (to me) one of the nicest in the game won the whole thing. Lill was not a nice or smart person, she's the most frustrating person you could ever run in to.

She was a vote for that alliance. She was a patsy who got lucky at the final immunity challenge.

She got her just deserves at the "trial".

I think Burton and Jon underestimated the girls - and lost themselves the game. Jon was convinced that he had them all wrapped up but they weren't as stupid as first thought. Sandra played the game for herself - and managed to show the girls exactly what was going on - which in the long term helped her considerably.

Lill cut her own throat in not getting rid of John as the majority of the jury would have voted against him anyways. Blind Freddie could have seen that Rupert and Christa were in Sandra's court and after she stabbed Burton and then Jon in the back well that just smashed any chance she had.
