--- Quote from: Crash_hust on June 23, 2008, 10:39:44 PM ---well i'm trying to make sense of it. So far all of the text clues have had to do with someone going home. i missed the first one but the heart and grapes sent BOTH of those players home. Liz was wearing hearts and Bobby had the grape thingy.
cf (11) 8.
if its campfire .... then its who gets "saved" from the fire. kinda odd....

I'm willing to bet the clues aren't consistent or tied to a particular result. There had to have been a team of writers who did nothing all day long except to come up with these clues, for days or weeks, just to make our wheels spin. So far, they done good!

I haven't seen anyone comment on Jon Kelley's blog yet so I thought to bring it up. It's here: http://blogs.abc.com/molehost/
He has some insight and if it's not scripted then I think it could be a good source for clues.
On a lighter note, this came from his last:
"One of my favorite conspiracy theories thus far -- while it had little to do w/ the game, was clever, unique and very imaginative. Here on the ABC message board, somebody went deep, passing along the following nugget. Went something like this: "I think on the final episode, Jon Kelley will reach up and rip off his face -- ala Mission Impossible III, revealing all along, he was actually Anderson Cooper!"
If ONLY!!!! :snicker:

Well if Victoria is journal 3... then 11 - 8 is 3. maybe they thought the clues were too easy and they threw a curve ball.

cf could refer to the following:cf.

For other uses, see Cf.
Look up cf. in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.cf. is an abbreviation for the Latin-derived (but also modern English) word confer, meaning "compare" or "consult". It is mainly used in common and statute law contexts as well as in academic writing[1].
Thus cf. is often used by authors in the text of their article or book to refer to other academic material which may provide auxiliary information or arguments to the understanding of theirs.
It is sometimes used (primarily in dictionaries) to imply insight into the preceding word's etymology — that is, to suggest how one term obtained its particular naming convention (perhaps from another phrase). For example, the phrase "Big Whack (cf. Big Bang)" suggests to the reader that the usage of the moniker (self-given nickname) "Big Whack" derives at least its name from the latter.
In the system of binomial nomenclature, the use of cf. is similarly used to indicate that the species needs to be seen in context of its comparison to another, but by definition is not confirmed as the same. For example Corvus cf. splendens indicates "a bird similar to the House Crow but not certainly identified as this species". For this reason many mistakenly believe that cf. is an abbreviated form of "confirmed" or "inconfirmatus" or the like.
So we might be comparing 11 to 8 or some such nonsense.

cf(11)8 = See if 11 ate.
Craig didn't eat... and he is linked to "11"
