No player should have their strategy undermined by the producers of the show. Once the game begins, leave the players alone. If one team destroys another, so be it. Stop with the switching of the tribes already...That's the only twist that bothers me...
Then why didn't you stop watching after Africa? Or Marquesas? Or Amazon? Or All-Stars? Almost all games have a luck component, whether it's rolling dice, shuffling cards, etc. Survivor is first and foremost a show. Whether or not it's "fair" is secondary to whether or not entertaining situations will happen. If things worked out perfectly for a tribe or an alliance, then we'd have a boring season, which is one of the reasons why seasons like Thailand are hated... The dominant alliance waltzed to the Final 5 with almost no real competition, and the dominant member of that alliance won the game. The same goes for Palau.
Entertaining moments are going to happen no matter what happens. Nothing works out perfectly for any tribe, who said it did?
Just because a top five comes from the same tribe doesn't mean it will be boring...All I'm saying is that at the beginning of the game, the very beginning, all contestants are equal...when a tribe switch happens the show is putting some people at an advantage while others at a disadvantage...I'd like to know why they started doing it?

were they bored by the way the game was originally played?

did they think they would get more ratings?

Or do they just want to try and get people so stop forming alliances?

how about this: lets switch teams every other day...they did it twice this season... lets do it more next time...and exile island needs to go too. It is pointless...
