(Sorry, it's not too mega, but here's 5 match ups, for now.) Thailand Tribe Round 1 Carl Bilancione Season: Africa v. Benjamin "Coach" Wade [hvv] Season: Heroes vs Villains (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: The "Dragonslayer" was a Hilarious character! Thailand Tribe Round 2 Kelly Wiglesworth Season: Borneo (Original First Season) [Second Place Runner up to Richard Hatch, 4-3 vote] Sawyer's thoughts: As a 10-11 year old, she was the first survivor "hero". I was cheering on her to win, cause she was the under dog, and dominated immunity challenges. (Except, ironically the kayaking one.) Jaw dropped when Sue made that speech to her. v. Danielle Dilorenzo[Exile] Season: Panama (Only!) (Exile Island) [Second Place Runner up to Aras Baskauskas, 5-2 Vote] Sawyer's Thoughts: I don't know why, but I like Danielle, even though she was bitchy. Especially after HvV. Thailand Tribe Round 3 Ace Gordon Season: Gabon Sawyer's Thoughts: Edited as the Pre-merge villain, because of his.. accent? Betrayed by Sugar. v. Rob Cesternino ASS Season: All Stars Season (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: AKA: "Greatest Player to never Win" Survivor, although seasons later, it might be disputed now. (As seen by Russell, fan backlash) Didn't do as well as in Amazon. v. Marty Piombo Season: Nicaragua Sawyer's Thoughts: One of my favs from this season, full of awesome characters. <3! Thailand Tribe Round 4 Randy Bailey [gabon] Season: Gabon (ONLY!) Sawyer's thoughts: Randy was great this season! Grumpy old man villain. Great T.V. v. Clarence Black Season: Africa Thailand Tribe Round 5 Erik Huffman Season: China [Merge Jury - Vote Amanda Kimmell] Sawyers Thoughts - Married Jaime Dugan from his China Season. Possibly nicest person his season. v. Jim Lynch Season: Guatemala Sawyer's Thoughts: Tough old man, even though he got voted out in Ep 1. He tore his bicep muscle, in the first episode. Guatemala was one brutal season. First to FOUR (or 5, depending) Wins!

Woo! Update!
Match 1: No dislike on either side here really. I think Coach made a pair of idiotic boneheaded mistakes in HvV, but he's still Coach. I wanted to like Carl and the older folks of the original Samburu. They just weren't around long enough to make an impact. Coach gets the nod.
Match 2: Never big on Kelly. Late in the game she became one of those super moralists who I can't stand in a game like Survivor. Holier than thou in a lot of ways. She made a nice run, I'll give her that. I'm not even all that fond of Double D, but she didn't seem totally lost in Panama and was on the verge of a move or two that could have saved us from douchy Aras taking the prize. Danielle[/u] I suppose.
Match 3: Marty[/b] all the way. Ace was whatever, and poor Rob just got dealt the unfortunate hand of being directly in front of the Boston Rob freight train. I hope we see Marty back again some day in a future season. I really think he could make a deep run as long as he keeps his head on straight.
Match 4: lol, Randy was a f***ing loony toon.
Match 5: Might actually be the only time in this game I give the nod to someone from China, but Erik[/b] gets the nod. Jim seemed like a nice enough, determined enough old man. He just never got the chance to prove it. Erik was around for more than a second and a half. Plus compared to the scum on that season, he isn't half bad.

Match 1 - Coach!!! I always liked Coach and was never ashamed of it, even if I should have been wearing riot gear when I said it to people. I liked Carl well enough in Africa but Coach is Coach.
Match 2 - Danielle. I wasn't crazy about Kelly. She struck me as phony. Plus, as I'm sure is clear by now, I couldn't stand Aras and wanted Danielle to win as opposed to fully wanting Richard to beat Kelly.
Match 3 - If Marty wasn't in this, I'd have gone Rob C. But this isn't as good a showing as he had in Amazon and while I still really like him, listening to his podcasts makes me feel like *maybe* he gets a smidgen too much credit. He's smart for sure, but so is Marty and Marty is one of the most enjoyable from Nicaragua. Rob C. wasn't in All Stars. I hated Ace so he's a non-entity in this whole thing for me.
Match 4 - Even though Clarence eating the cherries is still something I remember (and it's totally helped me remember his name more than other people in that season), we got to know Randy better so I'm gonna go with him.
Match 5 - Erik, I guess. He was nice and I don't really remember too much about Jim. Probably because he left in episode one.

1. Coach. I really enjoyed the Coach/Tyson dynamic. 2. Danielle. I still don't think Kelly has recovered from that verbal Sue beatdown. 3. Marty. All-Stars Rob wasn't any good, and I pretty much hated Ace. 4. Randy. Honestly? I liked Randy and Corinne way more that Sugar. Although I loved when Bob and Sugar tricked him with that idol. That's one of my all-time favorite moments. 5. Erik. Can't really vote for the first guy out.

My thoughts, even though this is over are...
I actually prefer HvV Coach because we got to see a bit more of his... human side especially in that CLASSIC scene between him and Tyson. Which is great! Carl was my least favorite of the Samburu elders by a good bit even though Samburu overall is one of my favorite tribes ever.
Kelly was boring and uncharismatic. Not much a fan of Danielle either but the right person won I think.
Ace was a pretty good premerge character though an asshole. Rob didn't do well in Allstars. Marty was one of the most fascinating people to be on Survivor in a long time. So many facets and layers to what could have been just a Hantz ripoff.
Love Randy. Love Clarence too actually the guy is a majorly majorly underrated character go back and watch Africa just for Clarence moments [and Frank moments <3] and you will not be sad you did. But Randy deserved to win here.
Eh, not too big on either. But Erik made it farther and was more memorable.

Thailand Tribe Round 6 Sandy Burgin Season: Tocantins Sawyer Thoughts: Fiesty old lady, who thought she was voted out immediately before the game really even started ASI Palau. v. Jon "Jonny Fairplay" Dalton[micro] Season: Micronesia (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: Asked to be voted out Episode 1. Thailand Tribe Round 7 Christa Hastie Season: Pearl Islands v. Tamara "Taj" Johnson-George Season: Tocantins Thailand Tribe Round 8 Stephenie LaGrossa [hvv] Season: Heroes vs Villains (ONLY!) v. Greg Buis Season: Borneo (Original First Season) Sawyer's Thoughts: Probably my favorite character from season #1. Greg Buis was one wild and crazy guy. In a good way. Thailand Tribe Round 9 Shii Ann Huang ASS Season: All Stars Season (ONLY!) v. Bobby Jon Drinkard [Guat] Season: Guatemala (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: Like I said before, Bobby Jon remains one of my favs, that I wouldn't mind seeing over again, based solely on his behavior during physical challenges. Take a look at the above picture during his time in a Guatemala Tug of War Challenge, for details. Thailand Tribe Round 10 Charlie Herschel Season: Gabon Sawyer' Thoughts: Nicest of Marcus's "Onion" Alliance. His showmance with Marcus was lol-worthy. Didn't look like a "camp gay", but personality wise, he most definitely was. v. Tom Westman [Palau] Season: Palau (ONLY!) [1st place, Winner to Katie 6-1 Vote] Sawyer's Thoughts: Tom -Freakin- Westman, killed a shark and ate it. Thailand Tribe Round 11 Cecilia Mansilla Season: Cook Islands v. Lillian "Lill" Morris Season: Pearl Islands [Second Place Runner-up to Sandra Diaz-Twine] Sawyer's Thoughts: Say as you want about Lil's game-play, and her luck with the outcast twist but without her, JFP, Rupert and Sandra, the season probably wouldn't have been as fun as it was. The way she completely owned Fairplay in the final endurance challenge was one of the greatest things I've seen on this show. Thailand Tribe Round 12 Shii Ann Huang S5 Season: Thailand (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: Voted out for her conniving ways during the 'fake merge'. v. Parvati Shallow [micro] Season: Micronesia (ONLY!) [1st Place WINNER over Amanda Kimmell, 4-3 Vote.] Sawyer's Thoughts: I think she has proved to be one of the most dangerous female strategist Survivor has ever seen. Thailand Tribe Round 13 James Miller Season: Palau v. Kathy Vavrick-O'Brien S4 Season: Marquesas (ONLY!) [Third Place] Sawyer's Thoughts: Pees on urchin stung hands. Thailand Tribe Round 14 Misty Giles Season: Panama (Exile Island) v. Lea "Sarge" Masters Season: Vanuatu v. Matthew "Sash" Lenahan Season: Nicaragua [Third Place, to Runner up Chase Rice, and Winner Judson Birza 5-4-0] Thailand Tribe Round 15 Benjamin "Coach" Wade [toc] Season: Tocantins (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: The shots of his "Dragon Chi" Meditation on Exile, was both funny and beautiful. (The imagery of the area was great) v. Susan "Sue" Hawk S1 Season: Borneo (Original First Season) Sawyer's Thoughts: "Snakes and Rats" Thailand Tribe Round 16 Candace Smith Season: Tocantins v. Shawn Chohen Season: Pearl Islands v. Jane Bright Season: Nicaragua Sawyer's Thoughts: Can get very bitter, but other than that: <3! Fish Dance! Thailand Tribe Round 17 Matty Whitmore Season: Gabon [4th Place, Lost fire making challenge to Bob Crowely Sawyers Thoughts: "Hi, I'm Matty Whitmore!" v. Jake Billingsley Season: Thailand Thailand Tribe Round 18 Alexis Jones Season: Micronesia v. Brooke Struck Season: Guatemala v. Ben "Benry" Henry Season: Nicaragua Thailand Tribe Round 19 Marisa Calihan Season: Samoa v. Joel Klug Season: Borneo (Original First Season) Thailand Tribe Round 20 Yau-Man Chan [micro] Season: Micronesia (ONLY!) Sawyer's Thoughts: Tackled JFP's head into a boat. v. Steve "Chicken" Morris Season: China Sawyer's Thoughts: "DAMN!" Thailand Tribe Round 21 Tammy Leitner Season: Marquesas v. Cindy Hall Season: Guatemala v Brenda Lowe Season: Nicaragua Sawyer's Thoughts: Parvati 2.0, another vicious female strategist. Only she didn't do as well. Her own ally Na Onka betrayed her, and Holly initiated her boot. She depended on Sash to save her, but was burned, after he opted to save the HII for himself. The downfall of a major strategic player is always fun to watch. Thailand Tribe Round 22 Amy O'Hara Season: Guatemala Sawyer's Thoughts: I thought she was another fun police woman character in the under-rated Guatemala season. She had some humor in her personality. v. Jerry Sims Season: Tocantins First to FOUR (or FIVE Depending..) Wins.

Sandy she was one of my favorite early boots ever. And Micro Fairplay was a shadow of his former self. Taj LOVE Taj Greg LOVE GREG and HVV Steph is my least favo version Bobby Jon I'm not super enthused by either TOM WESTGOD by a longshot. I even disagree with Charlie being the nicest Onion. How soon we forget [understadably ] Jacquie. Lil Cece's hot but that's it. Lil is one of the most underrated castaways ever. Parvati Though she was seen as the "Amber" of the cast and like Amber won, she actually earned that win. Kathy Legend, I actually LOVE James but... legend Sarge I guess but I lack enthusiasm on all fronts Coach This matchup is too early but I was never a fan of Sue Jane I'm her biggest defender and the other two are pretty whatever Jake Since I irrationally hate Matty THAT GIRL Alexis This one sucks for me since Alexis and Brooke are two of my random favorites. Alexis because she talked me me on Facebook on a regular basis during Micronesia and Brooke because she's BEAUTIFUL and she was robbed of a good edit despite being a good strategist. Benry sucks Marisa My favorite female first boot. She was adorable Chicken My other favorite first boot! Brenda Can't wait to see her back and see if she learns from her mistakes. The other two are meh. Amy An underrated favorite of mine! Jerry was cool though.

Since I have Yau in my avatar I should clarify that to be honest Yau Man was barely a presence in Micronesia for whatever reason. Had it been Fiji Yau v Chicken different story.

Sandy, since Micro Fairplay was a non-entity. Taj. Christa annoyed me. Greg, with no offense to Steph. Bobby Jon, though Shii-Ann did give me my "people in glass houses" moment at FTC. Tom. Poor Charlie though because I liked him. Lil, mainly because I barely remember Cecilia. Ugh. Parvati. I still maintain the stance of her not being as good as people say, though, because people think she's the best ever or something and I just cannot get behind that. Kathy, despite James being funny. Sash, based solely on him going the farthest. Plus, Sarge wore that horrendous shirt and was unnecessarily mean to Twila at FTC. COACH. Bleh. Jane. MATTY!!!! I adooooooooore Matty. Benry. Wasn't the d-bag I thought he'd be pre-season and sang "I've got little balls" which is one of my favorite moments from Nicaragua. Joel. Sorry, Marisa. Yau. Sorry, Chicken. Cindy, because Tammy was a bitch and Brenda grates on me. Plus, her sister Mindy (yes, twins named Cindy and Mindy) was on Rock of Love Bus and that's awesome. Jerry, because I actually remember him.

Nice, back up and running.
Match 1: Even if this is like, the non-existent forgettable version of Fairplay, I still give him my vote. Sandy got on every last nerve I have.
Match 2: I loved Taj. By the end of Tocantins I was rooting for Stephen and Erinn, but Taj was likable the entire way. Don't mind Christa, and she comes from an awesome cast, but not enough here.
Match 3: Greg. I never hated Steph, but this version was nothing to write home about.
Match 4: lol f***ing lunatic face making Bobby Jon of course.
Match 5: Eh. Tom I guess.
Match 6: I don't even like Lil, truth be told, but she's an easy winner here. If nothing else, she did give me the great villain exit by owning Fairplay in that final challenge. One of the best exits for a season villain of all time.
Match 7: I'll echo Roxie here and say Parvati, even if I still contend that 80% of her win here was piggybacking off of the work Cirie did.
Match 8: Marquesas Kathy I can get behind. All Stars, maybe another story.
Match 9: Sarge's best moment involved him looking like a murderer while Scout sang at him over the fire after a bad elimination. Sash just wins by default.
Match 10: COACH WADE.
Match 11: Some of these people are really lucky they got favorable match ups or they'd never get a vote from me. Jane.
Match 12: I love Matty! I'm a fan of Sugar's game in Gaboner, but her doing that to him at the end made me like her just a little less.
Match 13: Benrys here baby!
....
Mah bad...
Match 14: Marissa was adorable and I haaaated seeing her go first. Damn you Hantz.
Match 15: Yau-Man ... because it's Chicken.
Match 16: Another one of these favorable match ups. Brenda.
Match 17: I liked both well enough for what they did in their time there. I'll give a slight edge to Amy.

Roxie rewatch the part of Guatemala that Amy was in seriously . Very memorable. Lol it's bizarre because I look at her face and she looks somewhat familiar but I couldn't tell you one thing she did or said. And I'm one of the people who really liked Guatemala so this is just strange all around.

She had a Boston Accent and twisted her ankle but soldiered on in challenges anyway I loved her. OMG still not triggering it. I'm sure the second I saw her again, I'd probably remember. I'll say if it comes down to my Jerry vote screwing things up and making that match a stalemate, I don't mind changing it just to end the match-up, if that makes it easier. Because it really did just come down to my remembering Jerry better at the moment, so I don't much mind.
