This is where I will post all my predictions over the course of the game.

There aren't a lot of confessionals yet, so I can't really get ideas of who I feel will get far just yet, but I can definitely see this based on them so far, and will update it later if anything else comes about:
Villains :
Coach: Based on that first confessional of his, I can see he's going to be playing a cutthroat manipulative game, so I am hoping for him making some power moves and shaking up the game.
Colleen: Something about her confessional is screaming "Villain" at me, the way she's labeling most of the people she's talked to so far as dorks (Well Sydney, Alina, Tyrone, and Rupert for now.) So I don't feel she's gonna be the sweet lovable Colleen Haskell we all saw back in Borneo.
Dave: Dave's reading a villain to me, he said he was going to be a bit more "aggressive" this time around, and seeing that it's John from Namibia, he loves to tell it like it is if he fights.
Rob C.: Well seeing by who this is, I'm not surprised at all that he's gonna be a villain, but I do feel he has a strategy that could take him far if he doesn't create chaos early on as he did back in Namibia, I really think his laying low and then emerging at the merge as the "big lovable bitch you love to hate" will definitely put him on villain status for me.
Sydney: I possibly already feel she could be, she was a newbie back in Namibia but she's Tara protege so I do feel she is going to be manipulating the boys once again, and is gonna do whatever she can for redemption.
Heroes:
I can't really say much for this since a lot haven't done confessionals just yet.
Hopes:
I hope that Coach is masterminding a lot of things going around and cutting some throats in this, I could possibly see him working with Cesternino for some reason, but in general I'm hoping for a lot of interesting tribals based on the way people are wanting to play so far.
Shall update this later if i get other opinions!

Anyways... It looks like Gelap faced the same problem that Aarde had in the first IC, which is their lack of communication during the challenge, and challenges like that are super important. Coach I feel could possibly be one of their targets during the challenge due to the "bad computer."
Now on Cahaya, not highly sure on who their target could be, but Danni is a possibility.
I am interested to see how the majority alliance Morgan talks about will play out, and how her strategy of making people think she's a rookie when she is really a seasoned vet will be interesting as well, so I feel she will make a good move since now I know exactly who they are from their mention of proboards game they won, this person was a huge snake back on facebook.

Well I am pretty surprised that Sydney is going out so early considering who she is and did pretty well for herself in Namibia... but I can't say she didn't had it coming. Problem is with her is she does tend to talk about things that are a little too much for people to hear (Trust me, she talked about a lot of stuff back in Namibia but I won't say it here lol :x ) and seeing that convo with her and Colleen, it looks pretty much like she dug her own grave. I just hope that Danni starts showing up soon as well, or else they have another easy boot if they ever do go back to tribal council, which shocks me considering she's on AIM most of the time.

Yeah, I'm pretty shocked that they are sending Sydney home as well. I don't like Danni. Given our history, its obvious, but her bitching about Proboards fucking up last night?! RIDIC.

I haven't talked to Danni/KJ in ages, I just know we're not as close as we used to be, and she used to be a pretty early boot, so no surprise people are voting her this round.
And well... looks like Sydney may survive this round after all since its a 4-4 tie between Sydney and Danni due to Alina changing her vote so they'd have an easy target, and the only way Danni is going to live to see the light of round 2, is if she gets on between now and 10:30 and casts a vote for Sydney, if not she's just gonna self vote and make it a 5-4 TC with her leaving, but it'd be a miracle if Danni somehow manages to get online and vote for Sydney, otherwise, Sydney's dodged a huge bullet... and then Round 2, I can already predict shit will hit the fan since Sydney will know 4 people are against her, so I'm looking for some pretty interesting things to happen these next rounds coming.

Not sure what could possibly happen on Gelap's end if they do lose the IC this round, According to Morgan's confessional, there's a new set of alliances formed, so I'm not sure if that could help or hurt Cesternino's majority alliance he is wanting to make over there. So should be an interesting tribal for Gelap.
As far on Cahaya's side, I haven't seen anything from Sydney to see what she plans to do to strike back, but knowing her she's going to do something to really change things so I guess we will have to wait and see.

Based on the votes now, looks like Dave's fate is pretty much sealed at this point which is shocking... Man, I was hoping for some forged PM's that would turn that tribal completely on it's head. However, speaking of heads... Cesternino's is getting really big at this point. The way his answers were at tribal and him attacking Elisabeth, I feel his ego is potentially digging himself a whole as well, so I feel he's got potential targets on his back from Elisabeth and some others in the near future.
Tyrone is another person that is going to be a future target, Candice was pretty fed up with his constant complaining over them losing the challenge (To go as far to saying the jury was just a bunch of "Bieber fans" gawd, I do not like Justin Bieber to begin with lol but anyways... Tyrone should have at least compared the winning song to theirs and seen that they did NOT once diss anyone on Gelap, and Gelap dissed them.
Cesternino getting blindsided would probably be a complete shock, but if it was to happen, I can't say he didn't have it coming.

When I saw that Bieber got some Grammy nods, I nearly puked. The kid can't sing, for crying out loud!
And yeah... I don't know why Tyrone thinks he's so entitled. His tribe's song sucked, and that was only because they did an insult instead of a fight song.

I don't know how Bieber got nods, his fanbase is mostly teeny boppers for the most part.
As far as Tyrone, yeah I know it sucks to go to TC, but it should have been clear as day to them once you posted the Cahaya song that theirs was a fight song and Gelap's wasn't. So this next round... the target on his back and Cesternino's back is increasing now, so those are possibly two targets on Gelap I feel.
I hope Dave and Danni come on soon, don't know what that's gonna be like since they are both dueling on RI and are inactive.

I agree, all players sent to redemption isle should at least care.
The game isn't even over for them, so why give up now?
Beiber makes me want to puke, were not even going to talk about him. Kthx.

Alright no more Bieber talk... and no sign of Danni/Dave at all for RI, matter of fact I'm gonna IM Danni one more time about the duel being up, it sucks they both go inactive like that :\
As far as targets going.... I've already discussed that I feel Cesternino/Tyrone are digging themselves a grave, but looks like over on Cahaya, Rupert and Colleen are rubbing a few of their tribemates the wrong way (Well right now from what I see it's Alina, since the others haven't posted confessionals yet at this point), so I think it could possibly be one of them. Looks like Sydney is continuously dodging bullets these rounds, although I'm not marking her out just yet as a possible Cahaya target.

Alright... I imed Danni and I think she's gonna come on she's on a different computer so she didn't have the link to the Malaysia forum, so thankfully at least one of them involved in the duel is coming, even though I'd love for Dave to show up as well.

I still feel that Sydney will have a lot of bullets to dodge once they go to TC again.
I mean I am pulling for her because her heart is in it, but I see her being an easy scapegoat for Cahaya.

and honestly, I don't see Cahaya winning this challenge
They think Boys vs. Girls is a good idea, when we all know how overused that is. Colleen better talk sense into them... or else she might be a potential target for TRYING to win the goddamn challenge.
I want Colleen to make it far. So I'd rather her talk sense into them.
