In Probst's Q&A on EW.com he says they're not giving them more rice and given that it looks like it's about to start raining Samoa style they are pretty hosed. I think they only would intervene if people were keeling over. They probably only helped out after the Brandon Hantz thing because they knew it was their fault for putting him out there in the first place.

Well, considering how every other 3 tribe season of Survivor has gone down. It's almost guaranteed to only be a few days before they do a tribe swap.

The real question is this: they're not beauties, they certainly don't have brawn, and they haven't shown any brains...so what are they, really?

Each tribe has about 3 people that would fit in that group and 3 people that look like they COULD fit in the group, but clearly don't actually have any of those attributes.

I completely forgot the idols. Who has them? LJ and Tony?

It feels kind of early for a merge. There's still 14 people, right? 6 Brawn + 5 Beauty + 3 Brain? So I'd guess two 7 person tribes with a random shakeup and then merge at 10.

They will probably do a shake up to 7vs7 but the full merge will probably be at 12. The last few seasons they have done a tribe swap with a full merge like 2 tribals later.

One thing that seems weird is why do a tribal raid when you are just going to do a merge immediately after it? The producers surely got lucky that it generated the drama that it did this episode, but it really doesn't seem like a great reward.

So when they merge, they can have all the nice stuff at one camp!

There's very little chance that Kass is going to get dragged along as the final 3. Trish is already the final 3 goat that won't get any votes, if Kass and Trish end up in the final 3, it's really going to destroy this otherwise good season!

Also, I hope that Jeff just reads the clue to the super idol outloud at the reward challenge or something so everyone know where it's at and chaos ensues.

Cochran blindsiding Andrea and Brenda back-to-back, by far the two biggest threats to win the game at that point, is 10x the move than Spencer seems to have in him.

Granted, that was his biggest move and was at the end of his second season. Basically what I'm saying is Spencer only has about a season and a half left to shape up or ship out. :colbert:

Maybe we'll have to wait to see what Spencer does in his 2nd season as well then?

I doubt the Pagong is going to stop. The Strong 5 have been together since the beginning, I don't see any of them flipping until it's just them. The only person of the 5 that MIGHT flip would be Tony and maybe Woo. Otherwise they are riding it to 5.

Generally the consensus among former players seems to be that people who get invisible edits just aren't giving the producers much to work with in their confessionals. Granted, that could be a biased perspective but I think it makes sense - it's only to the show's' advantage to have as many well-rounded characters as possible.

It's a mixture of things that make it hard for the producers to make a followable story line from a player. It's also pretty likely that Jefra will get voted out without stirring up anything on her way out.

Final seems late this season. We have nine people left but we still have six episodes left, assuming Wikipedia is right about the finale being on May 21 and also assuming that we don't miss an episode in there somewhere. That'd leave us with four people going into the finale...final 2 this season?

Is there a possibility that the weird numbers has to do with the Tyler Perry idol? This is pure speculation but I think some people might want it spoilered so The fact that Jeff called it a "new idol" instead of the early over powered idol. Perhaps, nobody goes home if the Tyler Perry idol is played to save someone?

Funny thing is if someone gets to the end with Tony and Kass its an instant million bucks prolly to hard to pull off though.

Not sure Tony has pissed off enough people to lose the end vote yet. He's going to get Sarah's vote and Morgan didn't exactly go out with a grudge against Tony.

He's playing a solid game that will probably get recognized in the end by the number of Survivor fans that will be on the jury!

The best scenario would be if -- knowing he has an idol -- everyone else successfully engineers a vote split against Tony, he plays the regular idol, and then haha oops, revotes also lock out the Stupid Idol from being played and he goes home with the Stupid Idol in his pocket.

gently caress that idol, basically.

This is one of the stupidest things I've read in a survivor thread. Why would they revote if he played the normal idol and how could he go home after playing an idol on himself?
