1 - Gervase 2 - Yau 3 - Burton
Whenever there's a matchup where I either don't like or don't care about the people, it's so much harder for me to choose. Well, that and when I love them both *remembers Courtney-Penner match up*

Match #1 - Gervase. I have no real love for Parvati's latter two incarnations, but I don't even think her real fans can give her much for this. She was 36 days of dead weight. The most active part of her Cook Islands game was her foot in that hot tub with Yul and Ozzy.
Match #2 - I'll give it to Yau. Rupert has never been much of a gamer (even if this was his strongest showing IMO) and Terry is everything negative I say about Russell turned up to 1,000. Horrible social game, horrible strategy, but he thinks that being a challenge competitor is the way to win this game. His idol play even sucked. Yau knew what he was doing, even if his plan blew up in his face in Fiji.
Match #3 - Burton for sure. I'm harder on people who get brought back in to games for a second chance after elimination, but when he returned he played really well up until the point he decided that the women couldn't touch him or Fairplay and totally underestimated Queen Sandra.

Good match-ups.
1. Gervase. I like Parvati fairly well...but this is Gervase we're talking about. Borneo had some great characters. 2. Rupert. I know I'm fighting a losing battle here with this one because Yau is so well-liked around here, but whatevski. Rupert is the most popular player in Survivor history and this season is the one that made it so. 3. Burton. Most everyone hated the Outcast Twist, me included, but Burton really stepped his game up when he came back. He and Fairplay made one of the most formidable duos in Survivor history.

Gervase. He's up against Parvati before she became the Black Widow. CI Parv was ok, certainly not unlikeable. But I love Gerv.
This is such a stiff matchup. Yau is one of my all time favorites though... so is Rupert but Yau may be top 3 while Rupert may miss out on top 10 if I really put the list together.
RORY! I'm sure Burton will win this for getting farther but Rory is such a hilarious character.

Parvati Terry (I'll throw a vote to him here. Rupert was very overated now that I look back on it, didn't watch Fiji enough to vote for Yau, even though I hear good things) Burton

OK so far we have:
Gervase (4) - Parvati Cook Islands (1) Yau (3) - Rupert Pearl Islands (1) - Terry (1) Burton (4) - Rory (1)
I'll let this one run until noon since these seem decided and it will have been 24 hours.

Very interesting....
1. Will Smith. HvV Cirie wasn't anything to write home about, and they sculpted the HII in Willard's likeness. That gets him the win. 2. Vecepia. Gotta give the nod to winner over the Ice Queen. 3. Ethan. Without a doubtski. One of my favorite winners. 4. Ashley. Shoulders was kind of a biznitch, and his closest ally was Lil.....so there's that. 5. Aras. Pretty close one considering Aras is one of my least favorite soul survivors, but he edges out Ozzy for me.

1. Cirie, even HvV Cirie 2. Ami 3. Noone else is voting for him I just know it but Cao Boi is probably my single favorite prejury boot EVER and Ethan is on the lower half of my winners list [as is Vee actually] 4. Ryan, but eh 5. Ozzy, he was OK in Cooks actually. Doucheozzy didn't really come to the forefront till Micronesia. And Aras is another one on my the lower half of my winners list. These three winners MIGHT be my three least favorite

Match #1 - I think Cirie at her worst is better than the invisible Willard.
Match #2 - I agree with Toates in that V is one of my least favorite winners. In her case it's less about being insufferable as much as being unmemorable. Neleh isn't good at this game, but she's much more memorable than V. So is Kathy, so it Paschal. Ami was so unfairly edited in Vanuatu, and she's a genuinely likable person. She played well enough in Vanuatu.
Match #3 - Love Ethan. One of my favorite winners.
Match #4 - Ashley, I guess? Never would have thought she could advance through two rounds, but we shall see. Power of the match ups.
Match #5 - Douche vs Douche. I will give it to Ozzy, thinking he is the lesser of two gas bag evils. Penner had Ozzy pegged right from the jump in Cook Islands. He knew he was spoiled, entitled, and self absorbed. People (including me for a while) tend to remember Ozzy for his work when the Aitu 4 had their backs against the wall. He was a beast. But go back and watch the first few episodes of the season. He's such a smug prick. The real him was more on display in Micronesia, but there were major warning signs here. Aras just sucks even worse.

I'll leave this open until 5 PM EST this afternoon. If no one else votes everyone will advance, and Ryan/Ashley will advance to a future three way.

My votes: Cirie (It's Cirie, one of the best strategist the game has ever had!) Ami (The Ice Queen of Vanuatu has my vote and it's nothing against V. Ami is just really great of a character) Ethan (likable winner and he's a jew!) Ashley Massaro (I think she'd have made a great character. Plus she was a wwe diva at the time, so bias.) Aras (I loathe Ozzy)
