Russell Hantz and Spoiling- Going back to last time, I said production didn't do a good job keeping the lid on Spoilers. Hantz so far has been the main culprit behind this whole Survivor Spoilers nonsense. He spoiled Samoa and HvV before they even aired. Idk how he got away with it, but he did. And whats even better, production found out what he did, and guess what? He got paid 100 grand for being on another season, RI. WTF is up with production. What this basically is telling is that being a troll and spoiling get's you paid alot of money to appear on another season. Production in no way punished him ever, and spoiling had never been a thing until he came around. So, if you want to know Survivor spoilers, stop by the CBS message boards and see the huge list of spoilers posted with no punishments by Admins. Way to go Production, way to go. Now you should get why the Guatemala caste didnt share any info with you guys on game
Lack of Sequester in BB3- I don;t get how a social game with confessionals didnt have a sequester house. A sequester house is necessary because jurors need to be able to talk with each other and the only gameplay known to juror's is word of mouth. BB had a weird system before BB4 where people who were evicted got to go home and watch the show as it went, watching the confessionals. Danielle Reyes is one of the best BB players not to win, and BB3 showed that expertly. She had a solid F2, had side alliances to make the F2 work, played the social game, won quite a few comps, and avoided the block till F3, thought that was default. Lisa played a decent floater game, but not one of the greats, and even though she wasnt danielles intended partner, they were F2. Now it should be obvs, Danielle wins 10-0 right? WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since people got to watch the show, they got to see her not so friendly confessionals and everyone was like Fuck this Bitch even though she played as good a game as will, because she said bad stuff about me in a private confessional. Like seriously, was there a reason not to sequester the jury? Confessionals should stay hidden to jurors for a reason, and besides, didn't the jurors themselves slam her and many others in the confessional? Yeah, but on BB, hypocracy is allowed I guess. You people may think I am biased about this, but its the truth. Sequester is absolutely needed in a game like BB/Survivor. And the thing is it was gaurenteed to work thanks to survivor, but BB decided not to do it and it produced the second worst winner in BB history.
On our final part of our countdown, we see survivor make a horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE mistake in casting, and for BB, we see the worst possible thing ever. Thanks for reading and I hope I can see you guys tomorrow when I post the final part. manalord Jonofthefunk Gaiaphage SurvivorFan37 Mearl TDO88 MattsBBUpdates zimdelinvasor jakehou97

I need to stop thinking about Russell Hantz. I'm loosing my appetite.
He didn't get paid a hundred grand for being on RI. That's the runner-up prize and he came in 17th place, and he didn't win fan favorite either. Where is that even coming from?
"spoiling had never been a thing until he came around."
Uhhh, no. People tried to find spoilers as far back as Borneo, but they couldn't get anything but it was airtight. People found out who the pre-jury boots were as early as Australia because there were photos of them together that got leaked. The earliest instance I know of where someone managed to get spoilers in the way that is now commonplace -- talking to someone who was involved in the creation of the season, like Russell -- was freaking thirteen seasons before Samoa, in The Amazon. The guy even wrote a book about how he spoiled season six. Spoiling is as old as Survivor itself - and spoiling in the sense you're thinking of goes back at least as far as The Amazon.
I hate the preferential treatment the Hantzes get as much as anyone and more than most -- but that doesn't mean we should start blatantly making things up. Flamelord
