Since we are in the Final 10 (actually, I would've done this earlier, I was just really lazy), I've decided to make a Survivor leaderboard. This is just based on what I've seen going on and it's entirely possible I'm wrong about a lot of this. But hey, it's all for fun.
1. SUNDRA
I'm very impressed with Sundra and I think she's playing one of the strongest games out of everyone here. She's playing strong without appearing to be too powerful. I don't know if she will make the Final 3, but she's playing well enough to earn the #1 spot on my board this week.
2. KATHY
Kathy's playstyle may come back to haunt her. But she's not in any danger for quite a while and her free voting makes her almost 'necessary'. She'll be around for a while. I put her at #2, but I expect her position to drop eventually as alliances become more important.
3. TINA
I don't really know what Tina is doing in the game, but she seems to be a good loyal alliance member. She'll last long as there are so many bigger fish to fry. I would be surprised if she actually wins the game because she's so low-profile when compared to others. At the very least, she's not going anywhere for a while.
4. BOBBY JON
If this Stacy vote-out works, then Bobby Jon should be lasting for a long time. I don't see a lot of people out to get him and he's also a good game player. I could see him winning a few immunities as well. I put him at #4 today.
5. STEPH
Steph is in a fairly good position as long as her alliance can maintain the numbers. She's a solid game player and I suspect that if the tide turns against her, she might be able to pull something out of her sleeves to save her. She'll make it a while longer, but I think she's going to fall victim to the fact that she's been excluded from a bunch of people's Final 3/4/5 plans. I don't see people saying 'I could never vote out Steph', yet they say those same words about other people. In order to overcome this, she's going to have to work hard to make closer bonds with other people.
6. TOM
Tom is known as being sneaky, which will allow him to last a while, but I personally have not really heard much about his activities in the game. So I put him in the middle for now and I'll update his position as time goes on and I find out more about him.
7. SILAS
If Stacy goes this week, it's only a matter of time before Silas is next on the chopping block. I think he has quite a few enemies votewise. He can win immunities in this game; I suspect that skill is going to become necessary in order to not be voted off.
8. RUDY
I've been surprised by how disliked Rudy has been in this game. Apparently, he has made many enemies. I think people are going to be waiting for a chance to vote him out. I don't see him lasting much longer than two or three rounds, given how badly others will want him out of the game.
9. JAMES
James seems to be the perpetual target. In fact, the only reason James was not targeted again during Alicia's SC was because the other alliance was being strategic and hoped to use James' previous votes against him at F10. I believe James can squeak past this Security Council and if he does, then his position will improve greatly. But he's going to have to work hard to get the target off his back.
10. STACY
Stacy's in huge trouble this week. I think her playstyle wasn't strong enough and that resulted in people naming her an 'easy vote-out'. She's going to have to do some work to not be voted out this week.
