If anyone wants a relatively gimmick free Survivor experience, the last season of Australian Survivor is probably your best bet! Mostly just the standard immunity idols, but not to the point where they find a way to give their favorite players an idol every time they use one. Also, I would say a majority of the challenges were actually better than what US Survivor has been doing the last few years... Although the reward challenges in the premerge were basically made for the Champions to have the advantage on. My Poison is Rob even though he's not playing the actual game or anything. Hope that's allowed. I will put my Pony on Jason though.

Binary Logic posted:Anyone know how much Rob and Sandra are being paid for this? They probably had to pay them some good money, or maybe promise them some other poo poo as well. Especially since they are getting Rob and Amber out of the deal. (Hope that no longer counts as a spoiler, if it does, whatever)

I only watch CBS for Survivor, but it seems like their entire commercial line up is CBS begging Survivor viewers to watch their other garbage shows.

Yea, I'm curious what other options there were. Or maybe if she declined, they would have handicapped Rob on the fire making some. Like raise up his string... Also, many were wondering what CBS was paying Rob and Sandra to do this. While they are obviously getting $. I feel like the ego boost is probably enough for Rob.

Omne posted:She told the same story to her tribe as the girl from last week, so I figure Rob and Sandra are telling everyone the same lie to tell to their tribemates Probably not, they usually watch the last 1 or 2 seasons before going out and probably all just naturally pretending like it's Ghost Island.

They probably showed them all some clips from Rob and Sandra before sending them to the island anyway so everyone would know who they are.

I would assume it's probably a nice furnished hut that gets rented out to people on vacation on a regular basis and not some dirty hovel put together just for them though... Also so much can be explained by knowing that the castaways usually watch a few previous seasons prior to the game starting. 2 castaways telling lies about the IOI similar to Ghost Island's twist and all the other players seemingly believing the lie. It's pretty easy to guess, they all likely just watched Ghost Island days before playing the game.

Yea, there really is no way at all they are actually roughing it on the island. Just doesn't make any sense. Like they probably spend less than an hour with a castaway every 3 days then go to a tribal council. They might be staying on the island, but there's no way they don't have a legit beach cabin / shelter.

Yea, like I'm sure they might be camping out on the island. But it'd be really hard for you to convince me that the beach / island they are staying on isn't just a plush Fiji resort.

Binary Logic posted:Boston Rob's offer was ridiculous. Noura had to get her tribe to make her the caller and then LOSE for her to be able to use the advantage. But if they lost she'd be an easy boot and blocking one person's vote wouldn't save her. This is the thing that hasn't been to clear with the season. But I am pretty sure that the advantages are good for the individuals # of tribal councils and not just the # of tribal councils. Also, the lesson was on persuasion and yet Noura made no attempt to get a better deal...

Zesty posted:Huh. I guess. It wouldn’t even occur to me to do something like that with toys. Ripping off parents trying to do something for their kid. TBH it can be pretty good money... Its not even really ripping off parents, its providing a service to those parents that don't want to drive all over town trying to find this years hot toy. Instead they can pay up a bit and have it sent straight to their door. And TBH, I am also on the lookout for the hot toys this year... But I did find it kind of funny to see a former Survivor asking just with their personal Facebook account. Some parents would just rather spend some extra money on the hot toy than go through this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTcFsdIJ_Xo SLICK GOKU BABY fucked around with this message at 10:06 on Oct 22, 2019 |

Yea, you try to order the big christmas toys off Amazon and Walmart.com and report back. They won't be available direct from either of them and not at the MRSP. I am trying to make a profit while also providing a service. And yes, to the wealthy parents.

Binary Logic posted:What do Sandra and Rob do when there's no mentoring? Will they reveal a giant head of Probst they've been working on at another place along the beach? Knowing Rob at least, they probably spent the whole time making strategies for the all winners season 40 that they both knew was coming right after they finished this season up. I don't know if they knew all the winners that were for sure going to be on season 40 when they started IOI, but I'm sure they at least had a good idea and probably could work out a poo poo ton of potential strategies...

Well, if they gave the Survivors anything like what they (probably) serve in the restaurants. They'd probably be lucky to get 2 ounces of liquor in those shark bowls.
