>>795434>>795435>>795778Based on what's been shown onscreen thus
far, if any contestants were unfairly favored
by the show's producers, as Sam and Lucas
seem to have been last season), they were
Nicole, Mary Kate, and Jose, in that order:
tons of reasonably flat and particularly-clear
land for camp-siting.
Aside from Desmond, Larry (and it turns out,
Justin), none of this season's participants
seem to have been in as much trouble,
geographically-speaking, as the first season's:
everyone back then, except the aforementioned Sam and Lucas had to work hard just to find a reliable source of fresh water, and the issues
with dangerous wildlife and harsh weather were
a lot more pervasive than in this season.
I continue to think Nicole will get the win.
She has just too much geographic advantage.
Justin and Jose have motivations directly in
contradiction with "survival", and are injuries
or accidents waiting to happen.
David nurses no such contradiction, but his
lack of skill in gill-netting is a critical disability.
Larry?
I posted earlier that with his new campsite, he
is no longer as-distracted with geographic
hardships, and is freer to be confronted with
loneliness... and Jesus save us, but all of the
critical errors he keeps making (and surviving,
yes)...
I want Larry or David to win the 500,000, but
unless someone pulls an Alan and upsets
the producers' plans, and/or Nicole pulls a
Lucas (again surprising the producers), she
has this in the bag.
