This group loves each other so much it hurts!!!!
No, really, it does. EVERYONE STEP BACK, it's an ONLINE SURVIVOR GAME, got it?
Everyone repeat that to themselves ( like I have finally started to do after the last episode).
ONLINE SURVIVOR GAME

d**n, kids, I'm glad I'll never play with any of you all... except Kyle and Beth ; )
The first rule of Survivor is that there are no rules. That being said what the hell fun is it to come into a game and know where you'll place based on the length of your relationships with the rest of the cast members? If that happened to me I'd be bitter and bitchy too! The only person I've ever played with that I've known longer than the first episode was my girl Jai, and we were close to going for each other's jugulars, not expecting to last longer because we'd known each other for many years. Do you find that fun? Does it make the game more interesting? I can't imagine it doing anything for me except bore me to tears. That just makes me a different kind of player I guess.
No one here is better than anyone else and I keep getting that feeling that people think they are.
Go out and play the d**n game as you please, but always keep in mind that its only a game! Focus on that for a minute because a lot of you all lost it from what I read and what I've seen. A game should never get personal and a player in a game should always remain emotionally detached from the whole d**n scenario.
Leave Beth and Kyle the hell alone.
Kyle shouldn't even be wasting his time on this game and you all should be praising him for such decication to people who clearly have little respect or appreciation for the work he puts into this game months after he was voted out!
Beth ignore these fools, if they can't see past the game then they're not worth your time. From everything I've seen there is nothing I wouldn't like about you and I'd be quick to call you a friend (on the other hand you may be smart enough not to call me "friend" *g*).
For anyone that mistakingly called Jamie a Diva or self centered I dare you to get to know her and try saying that again! Its a good thing she refused to give me the link earlier or else I would've been on here like flies on a dead carcus. You all seem to be so full of yourself and its so easy for you to sneer down at someone else that isn't of your little core group, the lesser mortals!
Everything here is so overdramatic!
IT'S ONLY A GAME!
Good Lord....

Then again, if someone posts a big profanity-laced rant about how everyone *else* should remember it's a game, and saying you wouldn't like to play with anyone but these two people who are apparently so far above the rest of us... There are sort of people outside this fight that are pleasant people, and I really wouldn't call them "fools" either.
Who's really lost perspective?
Just wondering.

Not to mention that I don't think a single cast member has said word one against Beth here...so I have no idea what Lynne is talking about.
As far as Kyle goes - appreciation has been expressed to him repeatedly. No cast member has insulted his gameplay in this thread (or any others as far as I know either).
So, Lynne. Uh...be well!

I agree whole-heartedly with this statement. But given what was covered in this particular episode, I can understand why the comment was made.

Oh people....please don't take this out of the spirit of discussion.
Though my my login name says "host" in front of it....I don't see myself as a host I see myself as someone who picked up the slack when Karen got bogged down and started writing episodes. So in my eyes, i'm no more a host than you are.
With that said, I'm not going to ban people or stop writing eps becuase of disagreements. I'm opinionated because i was a player in this game and to me this board is all about discussion whether we agree or not.
I just like to know why people stand where they do!
I guess this whole new rant started because I asked why Beth gets called out on loyalty issues and others didn't. That's all.
Please...discuss on.

About "fuzzy"....refer to my comments way back...don't even remember when it was that I said it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy when a mother comes to the defense of her son no matter what. That's all. Not meant to ruffle feathers.
Jealous....nope. I like me. I'm just opinionated and so is Chris, so we butt heads. But so far, we haven't gotten to a place where we can't hash it out on our own time and come to an understanding. In fact, I think I've made mention many times on this board that I respect your boy.
As far as me having a thing for him...you could only be so lucky, but no. ;D
I have no problem with you Dawn...I love active fans. Just remember, I'm still a player, so I'm still attached to the game in a "player" way.

You know, we all have our own story with regard to this game. I have to share with you all, my Holidays family, that I'm really struggling with some angry feelings about things that have been posted on this board. Perhaps it means I should be blurting out all of my thoughts quickly so that I can feel better and move on....at this point I'm not so sure.
What I am sure about, is that I have a different story to tell. It is not a story of me pointing my finger and saying "look at those cliques! Cliques are wrong! Cliques are bad!" and then engaging in clique-like behavior. Nor is it a story of me pointing my finger and saying others are cruel, while I myself engage in cruel behaviors. I personally believe that we ALL played. We all chose who we wanted to work with, whether it was a pre-game relationship or during the game. We all did things that could be called cruel. I for one, chose relationships from both pre-game and in-game and I did change loyalties. I engaged in behaviors that could be described as cruel.
I believe Isaac and Jake and I separately though, have commented on the fact that the adults in this series could have learned a thing or two from the teens in the series about maturity, class, and when to shake hands and say good game and then move on. (myself included)
My anger is my own and I will not put it on others. However, I do not feel comfortable getting into the specifics of it, as you have requested, Kyle. I do not believe that all opinions have indeed been OK on this message board....some are definitely more validated than others.
I feel strongly that the fires on this board have been stoked by the very leadership of this series, and I can not begin to tell you how significantly disappointed I am about that. If I practice what I preach though, I will make every attempt to be an adult about my feelings. I will discuss them one on one with those involved or I shall wait until the episodes are complete before I feel completely safe in sharing what it is that I am seeing here.
IM me privately if this is something you would like to discuss further.

Rob! You have no idea how big my smile was when I saw that you'd returned to the board! It is so wonderful to see you back where you belong. You are one of two people who has hosted each & every one of us, and truly knows who we are and how we play. Your insight, criticisms & support are ALWAYS valuable, and ALWAYS appreciated!
