A DESERVING SOLE SURVIVOR WAS ROBBED AGAIN!

SURVIVOR MICRONESIA FINALE HIGHLIGHTS

I just couldn't believe it!
A magnificent season but a not so deserving winner in my own opinion.

FINAL 4
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: CRYSTAL METHOD
The Survivors will start out on a very small perch atop a twenty-foot pole in the water. Each of them will lower a bucket from their perch to collect water, pull it up, and try to pour the water into a small chute attached to their pole. As the chute fills, it will steadily raise a set of keys high enough for them to reach. The Survivors will collect the keys, swim back to shore, and unlock a chest containing sixteen individually shaped ladder rungs. The first person to correctly assemble their ladder puzzle, climb to the top, and raise their flag wins Immunity and a guaranteed spot in the Final Three.

Natalie had an early lead and quickly followed by Parvati. Amanda & Cire were behind.
While Natalie & Parv are working on their ladder rungs, Amanda and Cirie are now swimming back to shore to unlock the chest. Surprisingly, Amanda was quickly gaining ground by fitting the rungs so perfectly one at a time and completed them then raised her flag at the the final platform winning her the Immunity.

TRIBAL COUNCIL

The 3 favorites unanimously voted out the last remaining fan, Natalie. She became 17th person to leave the game, and took her spot as the seventh member of the jury.

Natalie's final words. "I have to say that I am pretty happy with the way that I played the game. I was the last Fan standing and I feel proud of the group of girls that I finished with. I respect the way you guys played the game with me, so thank you."

Back at Dabu camp after the TC, Amanda had a breakdown cos she felt that Cirie made them look awful in front of the jury members but it was settled immediately coz their plan on being the FINAL 3 WOMEN came true.




FINAL 3 TREEMAIL
They were surprised to read that they still have one immunity challenge left and they must pay tribute to the former castaways who were voted out.
The Final Three, Cirie, Amanda, and Parvati, paddled into Exile Island where they found the torches of their former tribemates.

FINAL 3
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: THE BALL DROP
Each of them will have a long wooden cylinder that has been cut into several pieces. In the center is a groove on which rests a small metal ball. The Survivors will raise and hold steady the first wooden cylinder by squeezing their handles on both ends of the cylinder like bookends, all the while balancing the ball on the center cylinder. If they lose their concentration or squeeze too hard, the wooden pieces and ball will fall and they will be out of the challenge. Every five minutes, the castaways will add two more pieces, making their cylinder longer and therefore harder to hold steady and keep the metal ball balanced atop. Last person standing wins Immunity, and is guaranteed a spot in the Final Two. Also, as the deciding vote in tonight's Tribal Council, the winner will, in effect, be choosing who they want to sit beside them at the Final Tribal Council.

First out : PARV

It was an intense battle between Amanda & Cirie. It's amazing to see Cirie fighting so hard under the heat of the sun but Amanda's ball remained absolutely still until finally, Cirie lose her concentration and her cylinder fell apart. Amanda won Immunity again.

FINAL 3
TRIBAL COUNCIL

Amanda is making a million dollar decision who to take in into the FINAL 2.
She was crying coz it's hard to decide between Cirie and Parv. In the end, she voted out Cirie and chose her closest friend Parv to the FINAL 2.


CIRIE'S final words. "Here am I again, coming up just short. HB, John, Jamie, Jared, Mom, Dad, sorry, I tried my hardest. It just wasn't meant to be."

FINAL TRIBAL COUNCIL

Amanda emphasized her loyalty to her allies and Parvati capitalized on her strategic moves,
I didn't like Eliza's reaction. She's a camera whore I guess.
Erik is like a baby boy.
James was pissed at Parv.
Alexis was still boring with her questions.
Cirie was so bitter at Amanda.
Jason was just funny.
Ozzy was mad at Parv and confessed his love and affection towards Amanda.



The jury casted their votes and Jeff read the votes in front of a live audience in New York City.

First vote: Parv
Second vote: Amanda
Third vote : Parv
Fourth vote : Amanda
Fifth Vote : Parv
Sixth Vote : Amanda
Seventh Vote : Parv
Last and deciding vote and it could be a tie or Parvati wins: the final vote was for Parv.

Parvati won the million dollars and the title of Sole Survivor of SURVIVOR: MICRONESIA -- FANS VS. FAVORITES .
I don’t hate Parv I just don’t feel her as the winner.

What can I say? I was sad coz I was rooting from the start for AMANDA. Hats off to Amanda for making 2 seasons back to back and reaching the 39th night.
She won the heart of Ozzy and I love to hear it!
Amanda is the ultimate female survivor for me!
She is the deserving winner!!!!!!
The jury got it all wrong!

Anyway, this season rocks and this is now my official favorite season of all times.
Let's see if the Survivor Gabon can top this!
See you in Africa this fall!!!!
