you whiners are ridiculous - every step of the game is planned out ahead of time. It's not like they saw Kota kicking ass and decided at that point that they were going to toss in another swap.

What a bunch of maroons.

Actually, Jeff himself said on his blog, that the producers wanted to mix this game up so it wouldn't turn into Fang getting Pagonged.

Using eight individual bamboo snorkels, four for each tribe, the Survivors had to submerge themselves underwater and breathe through the snorkel. Once a tribe member comes up for air, their time is stopped. The tribe with the longest cumulative running time under water wins.

Going by this description from the site, it was still a challenge where the performance of the...

Loverboy, STFU. They HAVE done tribal challenges where it's on one person to win it for their whole tribe (see Survivor: Thailand). Challenge wise, everything is completely planned out before the game begins.

The only person truly screwed by a twist was Michelle because they wouldn't let ANY strategizing happen between IC and TC. Everyone else dug their own graves.

Not really... Mookie and Dreamz had already been campaigning for Stacy because she would have given too much power to Alex and Edgardo if they had made it to Final 5. The twist actually gave them the perfect opportunity to oust Stacy, but Michelle's comments about not trusting Dreamz made him...

I highly doubt one of Jeff's burning questions at every TC is if people have looked into Sugar's bag. Even asking that question would make people realise she has the hidden idol.

feeds@yuku.com (Merely) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 15:15:41 GMT

^About Jeff asking Sugar about people digging in her bag for the immunity idol, Jeff might have asked that in every tribal council. Tribal councils last up to 1-2 hours and most things are edited OUT. They just probably edited that IN because it's RELEVANT to the context of the episode.

So what's to stop him from saying "Hey Sugar, nice individual Immunity Idol that you may-or-may-not have found on Exile Island today."? Before he asked normal questions, now he deliberately tries to make people question their alliances and their vote. "It seems that it's important to keep a tribe strong...*turns to weaker player* So, do you think you might be feeling vulnerable then?"

And how would people legitimately be able to call them on...

and you're pretty naive to think that the producers could get away with manipulating the results of a game show mid-process. Don't you read? (please see the gameshow 21 in the '50's). Every challenge and twist is planned out before the game begins. Or have you not ever watched any of the Insider clips that show you the production camp - including the whiteboards with all the challenges layed out?

And Jeff's questions? Again - if you know anything of the...

Uh no. Michelle should have stayed, yet blew it. Mookie and her were somewhat close while Dreamz and Stacy hated each other. I will agree that Michelle was more screwed over than Marcus, but neither were. They both were in a position...

I don't see how Marcus knew he was in danger. He thought he had managed to play both sides, and did not expect his scheming to catch up to him and for both of the people who had promised him loyalty (Crystal and Susie) to turn on him. If you don't think you're going home, and you do, that's a blindside. Marcus was...

Shut up, Jeff. It wasn't a blindside. The producers shuffled the tribes yet again, and Marcus got screwed on a tribe with a scheming old bitch (who will get voted off soon enough) who is too stupid to know not to tell her alliance she plans to vote for them. Susie has no power - yes, she voted out Marcus, but she has absolutely no power after that. She has ostracized herself from her originally six alliance and joined up with two pitiful characters who have no chance of individual...
