I'd switch Tommy and Lauren on that. Last episode made it pretty clear that Lauren is the ringleader. Tommy could also end up as The Stealth Assassin depending on how things end up. Dan would probably be The Passenger-Seat Driver or The Stealth Assassin depending on how his hypothetical win turns out, but I agree that it's not happening.

And Inviso, I'm shocked that you didn't think Sandra is the perfect 10. I feel like it's pretty obvious when even her GC self is in the top 15.


Remember though, that it took like, 18 seasons of us running the "Save My Season Contest" contests before we got a female winner. This board tends to prefer male characters, so my guess was a male character that I didn't think would ruffle any feathers.

I always underestimate Cirie bias around these parts and this time is no different I guess...

So the top 5 is (my predix):

5) Christian Hubicki (David vs. Goliath, 7th place)
4) Yau-Man Chan (Fiji, 4th place)
3) Courtney Yates (China, 2nd place)
2) Cirie Fields (Exile Island, 4th place)
1) Sandra Diaz-Twine (Pearl Islands, 1st place)

Hope Cirie isn't the 10/10, surely you need to win to be 10/10 so it would have to be PI Sandra... right?

I watched a few episodes with my ex. Some seasons were pretty good some were snoozers. My recommendation is to check it out but it might not be your cup of tea.

Plot twist would be if I announced that I had fabricated a score earlier in the list and revealed that we had all come around and shown our love for Dan Foley.

As a person, Dan Spilo no question. As a Survivor character, Foley was more of a drain on the season as a whole but didn't have a single episode as bad as Spilo in that double so it's tough. Both are bottom 5 of all time.

TAR12 rewatched. I'm glad I have some other stuff to watch right now because I'm feeling the fatigue. This season was a chore to finish and I liked it. And I know that I have some really rough ones still to come so...

TK & Rachel were one of my favorite teams of all time when I originally watched the series. I have no idea how. While I don't outright hate them, there were moments where they were incredibly tough to watch and I now get the hate that they get on Sucks.

Ronald & Christina were one of my least-favorite teams of all time when I originally watched the series. They were mostly as I remembered them but my opinions have changed enough in 10 years for me to appreciate them and this time they were my favorite team of the season.
