Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time for a blog today, but I wanted to post our most recent scores and give a few thoughts.
Thoughts:
If the tribes get mixed up next week, like the previews implied, that could only help this season. With so many loonies in Nicaragua, and most of them on the Older Tribe's team, there needs to be a dash of sanity tossed in. NaOnka is nuts, there's no doubt, but she's 1 person with a whole lot of crazy v. 3 players on the older tribe who are still pretty nuts. NaOnka > Holly, but NaOnka < Holly + Jimmy T. + Psycho Marty.
Marty is going crazy pretty quickly. I guess the leader of the loonies quickly becomes a loon himself. He gets his mind set on eliminating someone - whether it's deserving or not - and then puts everything on the line to make it happen. One day he's going to go after someone popular and then he'll get the boot.
Standings: (these include temporary team names, which could change in the future)
Team Hunk: Dachui - 22 points
1. Chase (11 pts)
[2. Jimmy J. (0 pts)]
3. Fabio (11 pts)
Team Estrogen: Me - 22 points
1. Brenda (11 pts)
2. Alina (11 pts)
3. Holly (0 pts)
Team Crush: Courtney - 19 points
1. Jane (0 pts)
2. Benry (11 pts)
3. Kelly (8 pts)
Team Laughing Uproariously: Moon - 19 points
1. Jill (0 pts)
2. Dan (-2 pts)
3. NaOnka (21 pts)
Team Just Gimme a Chance: Baggins - 11 points
1. Sash (11 pts)
2. Tyrone (0 pts)
[3. Jimmy T (0 pts)]
Team Dr. Bug: Doug/Bri - 8 points
1. Marty (0 pts)
2. Purple Kelly (8 pts)
3. Yve (0 pts)
Power Rankings:
1. Estrogen - I'm giving myself the #1 spot because Brenda is more and more impressive with every week. Also, with a potential tribal mix, Alina's position will become much safer, I think. Holly's still a lose cannon, but at least she's still in the game, right?
2. Crush - Team Crush is doing really well considering that her #1 pick hasn't won any points. Jane is my favorite person on the show so far, and I hope she does well. In the meantime, Courtney's getting a lot of help from her supporting cast.
3. Laughing Uproariously - Moon's stock went up when NaOnka got herself an immunity idol. One of the worst players on the show is our current point leader. If he can get his dregs to produce this much before getting the boot he has a great chance to go far with Jill. He'd be ranked higher if Lame Dan wasn't on his team.
4. Team Hunk - Dachui has Chase, and as long as he's in they still have a chance. Not huge with Fabio being their only other player, but still... they could make some moves.
5. Dr. Bug - Doug/Bri's #1 pick was my #1 overall pick too. But I'm suddenly happy I didn't get Marty because he's playing the game way too hard this early. See above for more details.
6. Just Gimme a Chance - Bag's team crumbled faster than Malika's wedding cake in Top Chef: Just Desserts. Sash is barely even on the show, Tyrone is a part of a tribe that is in shambles and winning no points in the meantime.

WOW! i am speechless as to this season so far. the players suck. the challenges/immunity wrapped up in one round sucks. the most annoying player known to survivor has the immunity idol...sucks. i'm not sure you can even really rank anyone right now if the teams are getting changed up. its really a "mixed bag".
i almost feel like the producers just changed plans due to the suckiness of the old tribe and decided that they needed to step in to make sure the old tribe didnt get eliminated right away. so if they change tribes, who gets the MOP???
Agreed - I have no real confidence in my rankings because of all the uncertainty. And I'm sure this was a producers' decision!
Good question about the Mop... I guess we'll have to wait and see!
Team Crush gets the MoP. We'll be holding it allll season. SHLAP!!!
Also, love the Top Chef reference there.
I have no idea as to the origin of my team's name, but I like it.
