The idol can't be stolen and there's a procedure for actually handing it off to someone else (apparently it has to be done on camera or something). So
really it's attached to the owner while the owner is in the game. The actual physical idol is just the symbol of the power, not the actual power, so my
guess is the idol's power leaves with Ozzy. But that's just a guess.

I think it's way dumber than James. Not bringing the idol with you basically screams! "Hey, you guys have a golden oppurtunity to get me out tonight
and it might be the last time" At least bringing the idol with you, like James did, makes people wonder if they should actually go through with it.
Remember how everyone who screwed over James in China were shitting bricks at the thought of him using the idol? Well not bringing takes out every once of
doubt out of everyone. It's the same difference as fogetting to lock your door or leaving it wide open.

I thought it was nearly stupid of Todd for voting against James and not throwing vote against someone else. That was pretty dumb of him especially that he
wasn't all that safe, either.

And somehow I think the contestants are asked not to talk about the rules too much, because I'm surprised they don't give better explanations of the rules in interviews. Once Ozzy had been outed at the previous TC as owning the HII, there would have been no reason for him to keep it hidden. Everyone knew he had it, and he knew that everyone knew. Why keep hiding it? I don't know. So my guess is the following: 1) I believe there is a rule against stealing a fellow competitor's belongings, so hiding the HII is a matter of keeping it a secret, not protecting it from theft; 2) but now that Ozzy is out of the game, any belongings left behind are fair game for others to take, including the HII. I think it is in play if found. |

I can't believe people are actually speculating that the others can just go back to camp to get the Idol. Of course not. If you can't take it form
someone's belongings while they're in the game you can't afterwards. While we don't know all the specifics we know the HII has to be formally
transfered to someone like when Todd gave it to James. We don't SEE the formal transition but that's because it's irrelevant when X says
they're giving it to Y on camera. Ozzy's Idol is dead. Period. End of.

Penner didn't wait til the reunion show for his hat. Yul gave it to him at the very next TC. He walked over & laid it where the jury sat. Probst
even questioned him on trying to gain a vote by doing this & Yul denied it.

It has to be given away by the person that found it or it isn't any good. Not sure what might have happened if Ozzy had brought it with him, not played
it, if he could have handed it to Amanda on his way out. Maybe not, since technically he would already have been out of the game. Though he's not really
out til Probst snuffs his torch. It's too bad he didn't have it in his bag & handed it to Amanda or James & then had his torch snuffed.
Wonder if they could have used it then or not. You also can't steal it from the person that finds it so I don't know why Ozzy didn't keep it in
his bag. Rules state you can't steal it.

It's officially in the idol rules that it can't be stolen.

They should change the rules so that the idol CAN be stolen. That would be hilarious to watch b/c everyone would be paranoid and attacking the people who went
to Exile Island.
Either that - or just stop using the hidden idols. Im so over that "twist"! |
