Agreed. If it were solely about game play, Russel Hantz would have won his seasons. But he lacked the social component. You have to be able to play the game but in a way that people still like you enough to vote for you at the end.

I'm surprised that MULTIPLE jurors of Winners at War didn't make the list. IIRC, the story goes that while on Edge of Extinction, Natalie and Yul got into a HUGE shoulting match that required them to be separated by others (Yul apparently took too long getting supplies/food or something). This caused Yul, along with several others (Adam, Jeremy, and someone else) decided to flip their votes from Michele to Tony to ensure there was no chance that Natalie could overtake Tony with a great final Tribal Council performance. Rob also said while casting his vote that he would have voted for Natalie has she given up immunity at F4 and made fire (this likely applies to Amber as well). So, while Tony gets 12 of 16 votes, it was MUCH closer than the count showed.
@@corsariocapitao You're right about Jeremy, but the rest is true. At least four people flipped from Michele to Tony to prevent a Natalie win. Whether that counts as bitter (since, as you pointed out, Michele was not winning) is up to you.

Idk i feel like Brenda had every right to be mad at Dawn, she helped her find her teeth, threw immunity to her, and let her see her loved one. For Dawn to blindside her was just embarrassing for her, so she decided to embarrass her back.
@@alexd740 You are a sociopath. Find a homeless person to sacrifice so they can put you in jail where you belong. Dawn owed Brenda a thank you. And that is what she got. There were no plans. No alliances. Brenda showed her true character. She took something unrelated to the game and made it about the game. Then she took her feelings and justified humiliating someone on national television. I don't know who hurt you, but you need to be away from other people.
No, Brenda actually traded her and Dawns loved ones visit for the other 4 players so she didn’t give her that Brenda shouldn’t have thrown that challenge, cocky bitch got blindsided and couldn’t get over it
Reed's jury speech is top 3 in my book. 1. Snakes and Rats. 2. Wicked Step Mother 3. Kelly Wiggles's pick a number (would be number 1 if it actually decided the season). Most other speeches are memorable for being extremely emotional or overwhelmingly awkward/cringe.
Brenda was justified. If you’re going to immediately betray someone who helped you not quit the game, gave up their award in your benefit, and threw immunity to you, expect that unconditional generosity to be cancelled out down the road. It’s also hard to call this a game move that Dawn had to do since it obviously didn’t help her win a single vote in the finale, which I feel like makes Brenda even more justified since Dawn didn’t even make anything out of the betrayal in the end.
I feel like Dawn did say she couldnt continue the game in that moment too. So i think Brenda was a little justified as game wise. I personally wouldnt have done it but just because Dawn takes out her teeth, doesnt mean she should get my vote after. Like damn good for you but I still wouldnt have voted dawn too.
Don't get me started on that argument, because way too many people blame the jury for being bitter instead of realizing that more often than not, the losing finalist just has questionable jury management with people and that's why they lose out
I don't know. Some juries are rightfully pissed off at the remaining contestants, and others seem like they needed to spend more time at Ponderosa to blow off steam before being allowed to reenter the game. Season 41 for example definitely could have benefitted from 39 days, because that Jury needed to take ALL the chill pills.
That's literally part of the game and it's just so conveniently praised by fans when the jury's angry at a woman and lambasted when one wins. And it's accepted in the Survivor bro circle that no woman has "the skills" to win without a bitter jury.
Got sent this vid. lol. I knew Nat had the win on lock (and rightfully deserved it). Call it petty or call it strategic - in no universe did I feel Missy deserved to tie for second place on our season of Survivor. To me this vid is just another fairy tale with a happy ending. 😘 [insert overly dramatic arm gesture here]
I never realized that was why Reed voted for Jacqueline. Thats actually really smart. Missy deserves every misfortune life has given her. Her and Baylor are some of the worst people.
Hardly. If Rob were against anyone but Phillip and Natalie he loses altogether. It would have been a shock if he won unanimously even against mega goats Phillip and Natalie as nearly all the jury hated him.
I was hoping to see Randy’s vote for Bob on Gabon, he practically hated all three finalists (Susie for the cookie incident, Bob because of the fake immunity idol and Sugar because she laughed at Crystal’s vote confession and when he played the fake idol) and said all three can kiss his ass on his confessional and he was the swing vote that led to Bob winning just because he didn’t want to vote for Susie and Sugar pissed him off with her answer
What about James's vote for Cassidy? I know that he was close with her but this reminds me of Vytas' vote for Monica. James and Owen strongly disliked each other and I always thought that James voting for Cassidy wasn't just to give her second
I thought it was similar to Danny voting Deshawn - it was the nonstrategic person voting for their friend, regardless of how (non)worthy they were of the vote.
About Kim’s possible gesture, pointed out by Troyzan. I know players aren’t allowed to communicate at certain times, but I find it hard to believe players never have subtle gestures, nods or some form of sign language that are easy to get away with, or producers let slide.
In RI, Ralph says in his voting confessional that he’s voting for Phillip to ensure he gets runner up because the rest of the jury is locked for Rob. Pretty interesting because that was before BvW.
You should make a top 5 most baffling jury votes in Survivor history. Off the top of my head, this would be my list: 1. Christy's vote for Jenna (The Amazon) 2. Sundra's vote for Yul (Cook Islands) 3. NaOnka's vote for Fabio (Nicaragua) 4. JP's vote for Ben (Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers) 5. Abi's vote for Denise (Philippines) I may be forgetting one or two significant ones though.
If I recall correctly, Fabio and NaOnka actually got along fairly well in Nicaragua. I think they both also bonded over smoking weed, hence the plant on her card. After Na's quit production altered both her and Kelly's edits. They made Purple Kelly invisible and made NaOnka utterly insufferable. I'm not suggesting she wasn't unpleasant by any stretch, but apparently production made it seem worse than it was and edited out most of her better moments. I could be misremembering all of this, but I'm pretty sure that's why she voted for Fabio, they actually somewhat got along and it just didn't make the final cut.
Same haha. I don’t like Tom as a player from Palau but I appreciated his quote from the HvV reunion- “the player who wins their season deserves to win their season.” It’s called jury management and voting out people pre-merge who you don’t want on the jury.
Same here, because even when playing online Survivor games, I've still called finalists out for mishandling the jury management part of the game, and do find it hard to vote for people who will vote people out in such a way that creates resentment instead of good feelings as they go on the jury
Ugh I can't even watch Caramoan anymore just because I know it ends with such a bitter, petty jury. And Brenda is the worst of the bunch. Cochran is not a bad winner but Dawn played the better game, I'll never budge on that.
Perhaps the best sport I can ever recall on 'Survivor,' is Christy Smith in 'Survivor:Amazon,' for voting Jenna Morasca 'Sole Survivor,' after the way that Jenna treated her throughout that game.
Vytas is the first person I thought about. He’s such a petty person. He had a grudge against Laura M because she helped Tina at redemption island, and he confronted her at Ponderosa.
Brenda was my favorite that season until she asked Dawn to take out her teeth. It was so low and nasty and mean. Exactly like you said: an exercise in humiliation, just to get back at her, that had no other point than Brenda feeling high and mighty. Just gross. Also, classy of you for not showing the actual footage of Dawn removing her teeth 👏👏 Yet another thing (along with the outing of Zeke for example) that production could just have left out, but by leaving them in the show makes them accomplices of said disgusting act.
I wonder if they asked Dawn about it. Because production straight up asked Zeke if he wanted it aired and would have found some way to edit that emotional story arc out if Zeke didn't wanna share it.
@@alexd740 so pathetic people deserve public and televised humiliation? It's not as if she had done something really terrible. Also by being ok with out, you realize you're way worse than her, right?
I read on the Survivor Wiki page that in the first season of the short-lived Survivor: Japan, one of the jurors didn't even cast a vote. If that's not petty, I don't know what is.
11:03 the same "I'll vote to get you 2nd place" happened on 3 of the 4 new era seasons so the people is doing it a lot. And on 41 even when I believe in Danny's reason of Erika not taking his question so he voted for Deshawn, he still voted for his closest ally in the game.
Danny voting for Deshawn isn't petty. He voted for his friend, he didn't do it to take away from Erika or Xander out of pettiness. Similarly, Jonathan voted for Mike because he and Mike were buddies out there and James voted for Cassidy because of their friendship :)
@@4Tom4lepus4 For me the point on the timeframe is that the strategy of voting someone to get them to 2nd place should be used more. As I say, I believe in Danny's reasons and that he was willing to vote for Erika until she didn't take his questions.
There has to be a part 2 because I didn't see Coby's vote for Katie over Tom on here. However, the five that were in this video definitely deserved to be, especially Reed's vote.
Hot take, I totally understood where Brenda was coming from with the teeth, may have been rude but her reasoning for it was there. But she should have at least given Dawn a jury vote for it lol
I thought Rodney’s vote for will instead of Mike was petty. Dude was butt hurt the whole game. Even Dan put his pettiness aside. Will didn’t do anything in the game
I’m not sure his vote was petty though. He hated all three of the finalists, just hated Bob the least. “Please don’t make me vote for Susie” is my favorite Randy line 😭
To this day I still quote Big Tom's "Don't be stupid, stupid." To my brother all the time. Country accent and all. And he has no idea where it's from. Almost 20 years later and I'm still quoting him
there is ocassionally a reason for these petty votes since in final three scenarios if its a unanimous win, or if the runners up tie, then both the runners up get the $100,000 runner up prize. But if theres a clear first, second, third, then the third place winner gets less, even if second place gets only one vote. So the 'voting for second place' thing is often motivated by the money over pride. Its still really petty, but a bit more understandable when they're trying to keep the person they don't like from getting some extra cash rather than just enbarassing them.
But this is why I love the game. Yeah, some people vote who they think played the best... but the players are often complex and multifaceted and petty. You have to take into account the social game if you truly want to win.
Given the way they edited the show... I fully understand the Reed vote, especially as he knew it wouldnt change the winner and make Missy 3rd place. Honestly if you had to rank all female contestants from Season 25 on as to who makes the most sense for "villains" in a "HvV2" season... Missy/Baylor are on the short list for sure as both top 5 picks, with Missy maybe even been #2
Don't understand why Jeff pressured Brenda to apologize to Dawn in the reunion. I was fully expecting an apology from Brenda to Dawn. The pregnancy was a gift for Brenda not to have to show her face at the live reunion. Brenda no doubt felt some shame, and would've been embarrassed to be sitting there the whole time. So again, strange of Jeff to pressure Dawn, not Brenda, to apologize.
I really thought it said “prettiest” jury votes and I was like “oh I’m glad Erik’s drawings are getting some attention”

Was expecting Debbie’s vote for Michele on here … would love a part two cause there’s a bunch of others good choices
Debbie could've gotten two spots in this countdown, because her Game Changers vote for Brad was equally as petty
@@NYChica23 Completely forgot that vote. Yes she should be #6 and #7
Rip Keith ❤ that scene where Jeremy kept trying to get his attention will always make me laugh
"That's your chair right there, one of those."
You know, Reed might have spelt Jaclyn's name wrong, but his writing is a work of art, I just wanted to say.
Ralph’s vote for Phillip in redemption island was also a vote just to guarantee Natalie got third
I’m so sad that we won’t ever get to see Ralph play again! He was quite a character. Rest in peace 🙏🏻
I think he also didn't care for Rob
You mean Phile lol his spelling was something else. RIP.
I don't think that's the case, because from what I remember him saying at the end, he seemed to respect Phillip's work ethic at camp, and that ultimately held the most value with him
@@NYChica23 He said it in post game interviews
I'm surprised that MULTIPLE jurors of Winners at War didn't make the list. IIRC, the story goes that while on Edge of Extinction, Natalie and Yul got into a HUGE shoulting match that required them to be separated by others (Yul apparently took too long getting supplies/food or something). This caused Yul, along with several others (Adam, Jeremy, and someone else) decided to flip their votes from Michele to Tony to ensure there was no chance that Natalie could overtake Tony with a great final Tribal Council performance. Rob also said while casting his vote that he would have voted for Natalie has she given up immunity at F4 and made fire (this likely applies to Amber as well). So, while Tony gets 12 of 16 votes, it was MUCH closer than the count showed.
So Natalie really screwed herself over when not even in the game.
huh... i never heard about this before but it explains some of the stuff that made me scratch my head watching Winners At War
@@corsariocapitao You're right about Jeremy, but the rest is true. At least four people flipped from Michele to Tony to prevent a Natalie win. Whether that counts as bitter (since, as you pointed out, Michele was not winning) is up to you.
With all of us reading this a "prettiest" will that mean it'll make it as an actual video?
That'd be kinda funny
#1: jenny's iconic gun vote for cristina
@@uglyaniimals I don't think that's that iconic or even funny, because when you consider that Cristina was a cop who got shot in the line of duty, that vote came off as more disrespectful than anything else
@@NYChica23 acab 🙃
@@uglyaniimals Respect still is a thing, and regardless of my political beliefs, I would consider it in poor taste to draw a gun on the parchment of someone who had gotten shot on the job
This is a great topic that needed a video! I can't believe this hasn't been done before.
Idk i feel like Brenda had every right to be mad at Dawn, she helped her find her teeth, threw immunity to her, and let her see her loved one. For Dawn to blindside her was just embarrassing for her, so she decided to embarrass her back.
Thank you- worded this perfectly.
@@alexd740 You are a sociopath. Find a homeless person to sacrifice so they can put you in jail where you belong. Dawn owed Brenda a thank you. And that is what she got. There were no plans. No alliances. Brenda showed her true character. She took something unrelated to the game and made it about the game. Then she took her feelings and justified humiliating someone on national television. I don't know who hurt you, but you need to be away from other people.
No, Brenda actually traded her and Dawns loved ones visit for the other 4 players so she didn’t give her that
Brenda shouldn’t have thrown that challenge, cocky bitch got blindsided and couldn’t get over it
Exactly. Brenda did nothing wrong
Time to add one more. I'm still pissed at Maria
Reed's jury speech is top 3 in my book. 1. Snakes and Rats. 2. Wicked Step Mother 3. Kelly Wiggles's pick a number (would be number 1 if it actually decided the season). Most other speeches are memorable for being extremely emotional or overwhelmingly awkward/cringe.
yes, keith is a sweet baby angel (may he rest in peace), but remember that wes is a good kid, he ain't been to jail yet.
Really enjoyed this one. Reed is iconic for this one.
Omg i read it as PRETTIEST jury votes as in like there hand writing im dying
“vytas also knows a thing or two about rubbing people the wrong way” 💀💀💀 i remember that set of scenes too well
reed is reality tv gold we need more players like him
Brenda was right. Dawn screwed her over. I thought it was funny.
even before watching i'm looking at you Coby from Season 10 Palau
I really considered his vote. He made it VERY clear his vote was against Tom, not for Katie.
His was more politically motivated than petty. His issue was not wanting to vote for a straight man.
Brenda was justified. If you’re going to immediately betray someone who helped you not quit the game, gave up their award in your benefit, and threw immunity to you, expect that unconditional generosity to be cancelled out down the road. It’s also hard to call this a game move that Dawn had to do since it obviously didn’t help her win a single vote in the finale, which I feel like makes Brenda even more justified since Dawn didn’t even make anything out of the betrayal in the end.
Read Prettiest... came for calligraphy - stayed for the content :P
There was a Big Tom Petty joke sitting right there
Not gonna lie, I came here thinking it was "Prettiest Survivor Votes" and am actually disappointed. I'm a sucker for good penmanship.
Carson's NASA font deserves a shoutout here
@@IdoledOut Eriks will always be up there for me
Same! I was like ooo yesss
@@IdoledOut So does JT'a writing, because when you get that closeup of the letter he sent Russell, it was pretty neat cursive
I feel like Dawn did say she couldnt continue the game in that moment too. So i think Brenda was a little justified as game wise. I personally wouldnt have done it but just because Dawn takes out her teeth, doesnt mean she should get my vote after. Like damn good for you but I still wouldnt have voted dawn too.
Hoping this isn't just an "I didn't get my way = bitter juror" vote as that argument from people has taken years off my life
Don't get me started on that argument, because way too many people blame the jury for being bitter instead of realizing that more often than not, the losing finalist just has questionable jury management with people and that's why they lose out
I don't know. Some juries are rightfully pissed off at the remaining contestants, and others seem like they needed to spend more time at Ponderosa to blow off steam before being allowed to reenter the game. Season 41 for example definitely could have benefitted from 39 days, because that Jury needed to take ALL the chill pills.
That's literally part of the game and it's just so conveniently praised by fans when the jury's angry at a woman and lambasted when one wins. And it's accepted in the Survivor bro circle that no woman has "the skills" to win without a bitter jury.
Got sent this vid. lol.
I knew Nat had the win on lock (and rightfully deserved it). Call it petty or call it strategic - in no universe did I feel Missy deserved to tie for second place on our season of Survivor.
To me this vid is just another fairy tale with a happy ending. 😘
[insert overly dramatic arm gesture here]
Please do a part 2!!
I never realized that was why Reed voted for Jacqueline. Thats actually really smart. Missy deserves every misfortune life has given her. Her and Baylor are some of the worst people.
Vytas wasn’t petty. Brenda wasn’t either. Brenda was angry she wanted revenge.
What about Ralph voting for Phillip over Rob in redemption island
Hardly. If Rob were against anyone but Phillip and Natalie he loses altogether. It would have been a shock if he won unanimously even against mega goats Phillip and Natalie as nearly all the jury hated him.
I was hoping to see Randy’s vote for Bob on Gabon, he practically hated all three finalists (Susie for the cookie incident, Bob because of the fake immunity idol and Sugar because she laughed at Crystal’s vote confession and when he played the fake idol) and said all three can kiss his ass on his confessional and he was the swing vote that led to Bob winning just because he didn’t want to vote for Susie and Sugar pissed him off with her answer
At first I thought it said prettiest, and with Reed's handwriting, I was really convinced, so maybe that is a good future idea lol.
love this channel. Luke’s the best!
What about James's vote for Cassidy? I know that he was close with her but this reminds me of Vytas' vote for Monica. James and Owen strongly disliked each other and I always thought that James voting for Cassidy wasn't just to give her second
I thought it was similar to Danny voting Deshawn - it was the nonstrategic person voting for their friend, regardless of how (non)worthy they were of the vote.
@@rokeYouuer And Danny's vote for Heidi
I felt that Lex was even more petty than Big Tom. He got BOOED at the All-Star Reunion for being a Sore Loser.
I love Lex. Screw Boston Rawb and the bimbo.
@@ninedaysjane2466 UP YOURS!!!
You Are TOXIC WASTE!!!
I knew before the video started that Reed would be at the top. Also correct me if I'm wrong, but 2nd place gets more money than 3rd place, right?
I always appreciate some Sabrina love. She’s definitely an underrated player, would have loved to have had her on Second Chance with Teresa and Shane.
I, personally would've voted for Sabrina over Kim, if I were on the jury. I never wanted Kim to win, and her game imo, is bottom 10.
@@kellydauniswhy ?
About Kim’s possible gesture, pointed out by Troyzan. I know players aren’t allowed to communicate at certain times, but I find it hard to believe players never have subtle gestures, nods or some form of sign language that are easy to get away with, or producers let slide.
Honorable mention: Ralph (RIP) voting for Phillip so he and Natalie didn’t share the runner up cash.
Read the title as the "Prettiest votes" and with the thumbnail I really thought you'd be discussing cool looking votes lol
can we get a part 2?
5:27 finally, someone acknowledges how this name is completely ridiculous
we need an updated version to include Aussie Survivor petty jury votes and include A.K.'s infamous rock draw for his vote
I read this as Prettiest Votes before clicking on it, I thought you were going to rank handwriting lol
If Lex, Tom, and Alicia on All Stars aren’t on here, I will be shocked
Why their votes contributed to ambers win
@@esdeathisbae9480 but they did it out of spite towards Boston Rob
@@esdeathisbae9480 Because Shii Ann's was the only one she actually won, everyone else was just mad at Rob.
This video is about jury votes for people who didn't win
Nvm
In RI, Ralph says in his voting confessional that he’s voting for Phillip to ensure he gets runner up because the rest of the jury is locked for Rob. Pretty interesting because that was before BvW.
You should make a top 5 most baffling jury votes in Survivor history. Off the top of my head, this would be my list:
1. Christy's vote for Jenna (The Amazon)
2. Sundra's vote for Yul (Cook Islands)
3. NaOnka's vote for Fabio (Nicaragua)
4. JP's vote for Ben (Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers)
5. Abi's vote for Denise (Philippines)
I may be forgetting one or two significant ones though.
If I recall correctly, Fabio and NaOnka actually got along fairly well in Nicaragua. I think they both also bonded over smoking weed, hence the plant on her card. After Na's quit production altered both her and Kelly's edits. They made Purple Kelly invisible and made NaOnka utterly insufferable. I'm not suggesting she wasn't unpleasant by any stretch, but apparently production made it seem worse than it was and edited out most of her better moments. I could be misremembering all of this, but I'm pretty sure that's why she voted for Fabio, they actually somewhat got along and it just didn't make the final cut.
I meannnn if I played I’d be on this list 😂😂 . Play your game smart. It’s like putting the cast of Samoa on here for voting Natalie to win
Same haha. I don’t like Tom as a player from Palau but I appreciated his quote from the HvV reunion- “the player who wins their season deserves to win their season.” It’s called jury management and voting out people pre-merge who you don’t want on the jury.
@@lexa_power he is a source of many epic quotes and I agree that’s been in my head since he said it, and he is right.
Same here, because even when playing online Survivor games, I've still called finalists out for mishandling the jury management part of the game, and do find it hard to vote for people who will vote people out in such a way that creates resentment instead of good feelings as they go on the jury
@@NYChica23where have you played online survivor games
@@evald5373 Mostly Facebook, although I've done a few on Discord and on message boards
Ugh I can't even watch Caramoan anymore just because I know it ends with such a bitter, petty jury. And Brenda is the worst of the bunch. Cochran is not a bad winner but Dawn played the better game, I'll never budge on that.
Honnestly I never understand how Missy was that annoying. Really during my watching I never had the impression that she was that despicable
Perhaps the best sport I can ever recall on 'Survivor,' is Christy Smith in 'Survivor:Amazon,' for voting Jenna Morasca 'Sole Survivor,' after the way that Jenna treated her throughout that game.
Vytas is the first person I thought about. He’s such a petty person. He had a grudge against Laura M because she helped Tina at redemption island, and he confronted her at Ponderosa.
Brenda wanted Dawn to feel the way Dawn made Brenda feel by blindsiding her.
Brenda was my favorite that season until she asked Dawn to take out her teeth. It was so low and nasty and mean. Exactly like you said: an exercise in humiliation, just to get back at her, that had no other point than Brenda feeling high and mighty. Just gross. Also, classy of you for not showing the actual footage of Dawn removing her teeth 👏👏
Yet another thing (along with the outing of Zeke for example) that production could just have left out, but by leaving them in the show makes them accomplices of said disgusting act.
I wonder if they asked Dawn about it. Because production straight up asked Zeke if he wanted it aired and would have found some way to edit that emotional story arc out if Zeke didn't wanna share it.
Dawn earned that humiliation- she was pathetic to watch. Brenda is a BOSS to oh so many for this move.
@@alexd740 so pathetic people deserve public and televised humiliation? It's not as if she had done something really terrible. Also by being ok with out, you realize you're way worse than her, right?
@@Ganychan Yes
I missed read the tittle an I saw the pottiest survivor votes and I thought the entire video would be neonka voting for Fabio
I don't get the child reference at 6:48, isn't Sami well into his 20's and definitely not 19?
I read on the Survivor Wiki page that in the first season of the short-lived Survivor: Japan, one of the jurors didn't even cast a vote. If that's not petty, I don't know what is.
That's why, in a popularity contest, one needs to be popular!
4:00 might be the same people that cast Game Changers LOL
Shocked the Snake Rat vote wasn't mentioned!
Awee man rip to the only sweet baby angel in San juan del sur🥺
11:03 the same "I'll vote to get you 2nd place" happened on 3 of the 4 new era seasons so the people is doing it a lot. And on 41 even when I believe in Danny's reason of Erika not taking his question so he voted for Deshawn, he still voted for his closest ally in the game.
Danny voting for Deshawn isn't petty. He voted for his friend, he didn't do it to take away from Erika or Xander out of pettiness. Similarly, Jonathan voted for Mike because he and Mike were buddies out there and James voted for Cassidy because of their friendship :)
@@4Tom4lepus4 For me the point on the timeframe is that the strategy of voting someone to get them to 2nd place should be used more. As I say, I believe in Danny's reasons and that he was willing to vote for Erika until she didn't take his questions.
@@frida.7831 we've literally only had 7-1 votes in the seasons after winners at war, seasons 41-44, all had a final vote count of 7-1-0
If Amanda and Candice aren’t on here then that’s ridiculous
There has to be a part 2 because I didn't see Coby's vote for Katie over Tom on here. However, the five that were in this video definitely deserved to be, especially Reed's vote.
Or Shane's vote for Danielle, as well as about half the Fiji jury votes
Add in Maria from 46 😂
Honestly, if any player pissed me off enough, I wouldn't vote for them. Like idc how well they played.
I always consider Natalie to have a defacto perfect game in SJDS. The only votes she didn't get are Reed and 2 default votes for Jaclyn and Missy.
Hot take, I totally understood where Brenda was coming from with the teeth, may have been rude but her reasoning for it was there. But she should have at least given Dawn a jury vote for it lol
I thought Rodney’s vote for will instead of Mike was petty. Dude was butt hurt the whole game. Even Dan put his pettiness aside. Will didn’t do anything in the game
correction: Will didn't do anything GOOD in the game.
Watching this after survivor 46… think we have one to add to the list 👀
I'm surprised Randy from Gabon didn't make it on the list.
I’m not sure his vote was petty though. He hated all three of the finalists, just hated Bob the least. “Please don’t make me vote for Susie” is my favorite Randy line 😭
How is Coby's vote for Katie in Palau not on this list?
To this day I still quote Big Tom's "Don't be stupid, stupid." To my brother all the time. Country accent and all. And he has no idea where it's from. Almost 20 years later and I'm still quoting him
there is ocassionally a reason for these petty votes since in final three scenarios if its a unanimous win, or if the runners up tie, then both the runners up get the $100,000 runner up prize. But if theres a clear first, second, third, then the third place winner gets less, even if second place gets only one vote. So the 'voting for second place' thing is often motivated by the money over pride. Its still really petty, but a bit more understandable when they're trying to keep the person they don't like from getting some extra cash rather than just enbarassing them.
But this is why I love the game. Yeah, some people vote who they think played the best... but the players are often complex and multifaceted and petty. You have to take into account the social game if you truly want to win.
Given the way they edited the show... I fully understand the Reed vote, especially as he knew it wouldnt change the winner and make Missy 3rd place. Honestly if you had to rank all female contestants from Season 25 on as to who makes the most sense for "villains" in a "HvV2" season... Missy/Baylor are on the short list for sure as both top 5 picks, with Missy maybe even been #2
Can you do a top 10 most popular survivor players? A bit subjective, but I think you could pull it off.
Don't understand why Jeff pressured Brenda to apologize to Dawn in the reunion. I was fully expecting an apology from Brenda to Dawn. The pregnancy was a gift for Brenda not to have to show her face at the live reunion. Brenda no doubt felt some shame, and would've been embarrassed to be sitting there the whole time. So again, strange of Jeff to pressure Dawn, not Brenda, to apologize.
