The opposite of a Pony. It's the person you absolutely don't want to see win.

And more importantly someone that you want to see dragged out with their show death. That
s why it's a "poison" and not pick your gunshot victim. Basically you are picking a person to hate watch.

Pony: Pavarti

Poison: Tyson

They seemed to have most of the puzzle up and then took it down, but like I don't think it was clear if they had the puzzle right or if it was a case where they hosed up the beginning and had to start over completely.

People melt down. I almost never believe in "throws."

They had the wrong shade lined up.

They also had a slight unfair disadvantage because the two color shades they chose of orangish yellow had closer values than the purple and blue on the other team. That means it was an easier puzzle for the team that could see the color differences easier.

This is the first AUS Survivor that I've watched and it's been excellent. The host doesn't dig as deep as Jeff does, but he has no problems calling out someone after they've made a face when people talk at Tribal, the longer episodes are great at showing life at camp (which I miss from the US productions), and their challenges have generally been way better (as in almost every challenge has multi-step gauntlets and obstacle courses - their production crew still tries!).

See, I'm not sure they really show much more camp life with the extra time anymore...

I was comparing AUS to US, and not to previous AUS seasons because I've never seen them. US is 42mins and the AUS one is an hour (or more I've noticed). That extra time is camp life. The US tends to cut from challenge to challenge with VERY little at camp now unless something dramatic is happening. It's great to see more time dedicated to strategy and it's been a fun change of pace for me.
