Let's hope they actually post this week so I don't have to leave them only on Facebook!

1. Joe del Campo - See every other week's analysis

2. Tai Trang - He pulled off an incredibly badass move this week, however I think it was far too early for Tai to do so. If Tai voted for Aubry and used his super idol on Scot, then that gets his group of 3 down to 7 where he can use his extra vote as insurance to make sure Julia flips over to them. Tai could have easily been in the final 4 AT LEAST. Instead, he's in a precarious position where everybody knows what a jury threat he is, AND they know that he has at least two lives in the game thanks to his idol. My prediction? Tai's idol is gone this week and Tai follows suit next time. But hey, next week is not this week. What do we say to the god of the snuff? "Not today. Soon, though."

3. Cydney Gillon - By being so anti-Jascot, Cydney has cemented herself within a new alliance. They simply can't see her going back to work with the guys that campaign against her so aggressively. The only people capable of getting rid of Cydney right now, Michele and Julia, have no reason to do so when, if they wanted to team up with the disenfranchised Jason, Aubry is the clear target.

4. Michele Fitzgerald - We know how little Aubry trusts Julia right now. We also know that Aubry brilliantly pulled Tai over to her side. We also know that Aubry owns the votes of Joe and Cydney. If Julia goes on to win immunity again, and Aubry deems Jason an effective goat, and they chicken out of going straight after Tai's idol, who would be the target? Why, none other than Julia's overhyped BFF. It's comparatively unlikely, but very, very possible.

5. Aubry Bracco - I was in awe of Aubry's performance last week. She found and dislodged Tai's thumbscrew in a next-level Khait-like manner. However, as good as her performance was, now is the time to oust players that are putting on a show as delightful as Aubry's has been. All it'll take is an emotional plea from Jason to win the beauties back to his side and Aubry could be needing some crayon therapy in Ponderosa.

6. Kyle Jason - He's got a lot of goat potential, sure, but we've seen Jason actually play rather decently in the past. However, the last thing Jason needs right now is to be doing a good job. He needs to genuinely win over some allies and pin all of the meanness on his dearly departed Scot. I doubt Jason's bravado will allow for such humility to save his life.

7. Julia Sokolowski - There's been a bounty on Julia's head for a few weeks now; I think Aubry, with her new best buddy Tai, is ready to claim it.

Obituary - Scot Pollard

People might hate Scot for some of his actions in the game but I love the guy as a character and I'm sad to see him go. His treatment of Alecia, apart from revoking her name which I don't condone, was a product of mutual conflict, NOT bullying. His pouring of the water on the fire wasn't a show of poor sportsmanship, it was an act of carefully thought out psychological warfare and guess what: IT WORKED. Scot was an excellent, multidimensional personality and I would LOVE to see him again.
