They're great TV; other than for time reasons I see no reason why the producers wouldn't like it. Having some sort of challenge like firemaking between the two is perfectly fair. Does anyone know if they still revote once there's a tie? I can't remember them showing it since Palau.

Also, it's not actually always purple is it? Wasn't it only purple because that was the tribe color? It's just a colored rock no?

You have to try harder to avoid even those throw away votes. From a TV standpoint though its just not all that exciting. You know as soon as the tie happens who is going home. Which is almost certainly why they got rid of it. Anyone know the exact breakdown for Mikey's TC in terms of who voted for who?

Which is almost certainly why they got rid of it. As seen here, http://survivorsucks.com/topic/35372 , I would greatly prefer the producers bring it back, even if only for one season, to expand strategic play. You don't need no damn idol or Exile Island when people are flipping out for just getting a throwaway vote (see Australia/Africa). Anyone know the exact breakdown for Mikey's TC in terms of who voted for who? I know Joel was the one who made a tie by throwing a vote away (can't remember for whom), but I am pretty sure it was Alexis, Mikey, Erik, and Jason vs. Natalie, Tracy, Chet, and Kathy with Erik changing his vote in the revote.

Because timing is critical, (a) is one Family Member left standing at the LA airport (or the NYC airport or wherever), meaning their Loved One just got voted off Survivor? OR (b) Do all the Family Members travel to the Survivor location, and that one Member must stay in the crew area, or some place away from the Survivors, once their Loved One is voted off? If (b) is the answer, I wonder if the Family Member can visit their Loved One at Ponderosa.

Might have been Todd, can't remember.) that the entire final 7 went to China, but James's friend did not get to go to the island as James finished in 7th place. Everyone else is just called before that the trip is cancelled, and they don't travel.

You have to try harder to avoid even those throw away votes. I totally agree that it was the most fair way to break a tie. The only drawback if they still used it, is that people might wanna play safer and not rock the boat so they won't have prior votes cast against them.

Now they rarely do, other than a comment like "And in 2 seconds, Crystal is out." (hands holding up the poles). Now, other than when we ask someone who posts on Sucks, we have no idea if a challenge lasted 10 minutes or 5 hours. I wish SEG would post times periodically.

That's because the endurance challenges now last for pathetically short amounts of time compared with the earlier seasons. After the ten hour challenge in Palau they've ensured that the endurance challenges don't go on too long by breaking them up into stages.

After the ten hour challenge in Palau they've ensured that the endurance challenges don't go on too long by breaking them up into stages. But they were also thinking WTF!? after the 10 hour challenge in Australia, and that didn't stop them from creating other challenges to go for several hours. The IC Parvati won last season went for six hours or something.

Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	I can answer it, There were 4 votes for me, four for Mikey and Joel voted for Jason who at the revote, changed his vote for Mikey. My first thought was "Oh Fuck now I have to humiliate myself AGAIN and attempt to make fire in front of the world. Thank God for the revote. C
