I've been intending to do this tournament since some time during the last season. Here's how it's going to go down. I made a bracket and 8 "regions". The Eight winners of the eight "regions" will go on to participate in a final tournament. I randomized the list entirely so there might be some finals worthy matchups in the first round and there will be a ton of jobber v jobber matches too, it's the nature of the randomization method! Couple notes. 1. Separate appearances count separately. Amanda Kimmel, for example, is on this bracket three different times. Once for China, once for Micronesia, and once for Heroes v Villians. Keep this in mind when voting. For example, I'm sure that people would think differently of first round quitter Fairplay from Fans v Favorites then they'd think of Survivor Legend Fairplay from Pearl Islands! 2. Vote on whatever criteria you please. This is NOT a best player poll. You can vote on who you thought was a better player, you can vote on who you found more entertaining, more likable, hell you can vote for who you thought was hotter for all I care. OK I'd prefer not the last one . Or most likely you'll vote for some sort of combination of these things. 3. Nicaragua was not included in this poll because the season is still running and 20 seasons is a nice even number anyway. Tournament Progress
Borneo Tribe
Jaison Robinson v. Stephannie Favor 4-0
Brad Virata v. Tom Westman [HvV] 4-1
Nate Gonzalez v. Leslie Nease 4-3 Gina Crews v. Joanna Ward First matchup up in a second, I want it in a separate post.

Borneo Region: Match 1Jaison Robinson Season: Samoa Placing: 5th Place [4-1, voted for Mick] Tribes: Foa Foa, Aigia [Merge Tribe] Jury Vote: Natalie White Noteable For: Arguing with Ben about race, wanting to quit at some points, having his socks burnt by Russell Hantz, telling Monica about Russell's real life which gave fuel to Monica's swan song, argument with Russell at reunion. Stephannie Favor Season: Cook Islands Placing: 16th Place [7-1, voted for Cristina] Tribes: Manihiki, Rarotonga Noteable For: Swing vote at first tribal council of the game, singing Amazing Grace in the recap episode, volunteering to leave after screwing up a challenge but redacting when it came side to blindside JP, saying she misses mash potatoes and gravy to Nate and it being turned into her wanting to quit, vs. First to FOUR Wins I'm going to start with four and see how it goes. If I don't seem to be getting enough votes I'll drop down to three in later rounds. Explaining why you vote for who you do is always appreciated. I will never cast the first vote myself. At least not until the final rounds .

Jaison wins 4-0. And lol to SnS. As for my thoughts since I didn't get to vote, I didn't like Jaison because he got really whiny from time to time. But Stephannie I like to theorize single handedly ruined Allstars by voting out the LORDLY Sekou and starting the chain of good characters leaving early. Plus Jaison got farther and was just a bigger character for sure. Next match up in a sec.

Not that it matters now, but definitely Jaison. I picked him after the first episode to win as well.

Sure that was not the best incarnation of Tom Westman, but still.. that's Tom FRIGGIN' Westman! Plus Brad was inconsequential, and I didn't really like the guy. Tom was one of the winners I was excited to see on HvV.

Throwing my vote on Tom WestGOD making it 3-1. It's true, Palau Tom was far superior, but Brad wasn't much to write home about despite having a few funny moments and Tom is one of my all time facorites no matter the incarnation. 3-1 in favor of Tom

Borneo Region: Match 3Nate Gonzalez Season: Cook Islands [So many Cook Islanders coming up early so weird] Placing: 9th Place [5-4, voted for Yul along with Parvati, Adam, and Candice] Tribes: Manhiki, Rarotonga Jury Vote: Ozzy Lusth Noteable For: Flirting with Parvati, only member of young muscular Raro mean alliance to stick by JP during his blindside, outing Steph's mashed potato cravings, being the person chosen to be kidnapped by Aitui, being thrown under by Jonathan when Johathan flipped on Raro, being one of many to refuse against all logic to believe that Yul had the idol, HILARIOUS reaction shots on the jury, coming into one jury session on crutches to my knowledge this has never been explained, voting with Jenny for Jonathan on Jenny's way out. Leslie Nease Season: China Placing: 14th Place [6-2, voted Jean-Robert along with Courtney] Tribes: Fei Long Noteable For: Having problems taking part in the Buddhist ceremony, being kidnapped by Zhan Hu and bonding with Erik, Jaime and others, being voted out because of these bonds with the other tribe, being called Sister Christian, being disgusted by Jean-Robert, being momma-bear to many of the young people in the game [Including it seems post-game], giving her idol clue to Todd in confidence but then him betraying to keep the clue to himself vs. First to FOUR Wins

No votes since last night so I'll throw another vote to Leslie who I disliked in the premiere but she really grew on me by the end of her stay. I too disliked Nate.
2-0 Leslie
