Thank you Konamouse. I don't know why I had so much trouble finding it this year.

I'm sure Willard will be the first person voted off Kulong unless he's made some strong alliance that we haven't seen. Has anyone heard him say a word? He's had absolutely no camera time.

I've heard him make a few comments here and there. At least I can remember who he is, if not his name, unlike some of the others who I have to keep looking back to see who they are! Actually, I usually do remember his name, but the last time I was here, I was really tired and couldn't kick my mind into gear.

I asked in the other thread but I'll ask it here too... Has a tribe ever gone to the merge without losing anybody? Usually they shuffle the teams up to make it more even and stuff, but this season I got a feeling they may not merge...Ulong may not give them the oppurtunity to merge as they keep losing.

Saw an ad on TV tonight that both teams are going to tribal counsel. Wonder what that means?

I would love to see this happen (Or something to this effect): The 9 member team is asked to vote/rank their favourite fellow tribe members. Based on the two people who get the most #1/2 votes, THEY are shipped to the other team. That would be interesting, in that new blood in the tribe may be liked more than the least favourite original members - hopefully combatting the Pagonging of members of the switch. As well, the two awesome people who join the small tribe are bringing great personality/skills to the new tribe, and may not be Pagonged either.

Just heard it again.. Jeff says "Win or lose, both teams go to tribal council.. then the voiceover said two tribes Anything can happen when both tribes go to 2 tribal councils! Don't miss this shocking all new survivor episode on Wednesday.

In Survivor Marquesas, Rotu won 5 of the 6 immunity challenges before the merge. This is the closest any tribe came to going into the merge without loosing anybody. Even then, the tribes were not reshuffled to balance them. There was a reshuffling of players, but the numbers on each tribe remained the same. The only thing that was close to balancing the tribes was in All-Stars when the 3rd place tribes in a competition was split up among the other 2 tribes. In week 3 of last season, John P. and Mia were both eliminated when both tribes went to tribal council. That season started with 18 people and needed to get rid of the 2 extra in 39 days, just like this season. There has already been an immunity challenge a day early, when Jeff hurt his foot, so 2 people going this week would get the show closer to being on track for 39 days.

While a Pagonging would be predictable and boring, it would happen because 1 tribe did better than the other tribe in a majority of the IC's. To the victor go the spoils. If you win most of the time, you should get the rewards that go with it. If you lose most of the time, you should take the punishment that goes with it--even if it is boring to us. In Survivor 9 we saw a lot of bad choices made by one tribe time after time--and those bad choices caused them ot increase their chances of losing challenges. They should have to pay for that. If they wanted this upcoming challenge to be the ultimate reward, they would have made it so the winning tribe didn't lose anyone. They could do something like have the losing tribe vote off someone as usual--then bring in the winning tribe and have them vote someone else off. If Ulong would win that challenge, it would really help their cause. If Koror won, it would all but wipe out Ulong. That is certainly incentive enough for both teams.

Bob, I'm not good with my Survivor memory, but what about the Survivor that Jenna Morasca won. Didn't they send her and Dave the rocket scientist to re-divide the teams, and even them out? I can't remember how uneven the girls and guys teams were at that point. Were they even or uneven when the re-shuffle happened?

In Survivor Amazon, the tribes were even at 6 each when Dave and Jenna picked new teams. Each tribe ended up with 3 guys and 3 girls.

maybe both go to tribal council when one team has to vote someone off. then both teams merge and leave the council together?

No, Tabby - pretty sure the tribes stay separate - at least until the next challenge -

Bob! I knew someone would have that info or get it quickly.. I wasn't about to start googling at 11:45pm when I was feeling the need to get out of my chair (back spasms and a med that sometimes makes sleep a must) and upstairs to bed!

It's funny reading the speculation in THIS thread, when the spoiler for tonight is one or two threads over. LOL. Bob, you are my God of Reality Stats.

The promos pretty explicitly say two people will leave - so yeah, two will leave. One each from each tribe.

I still think there won't be a merge this season. As things are going, Ulong isn't going to give them the chance to merge.

Nick - did you notice when Jeff P said "We're not merging" or whatever it was at TC? It reminded me the the foreshadowing that was used during the Pearl Islands season when Lill's flame wouldn't go out. (foreshadowing her return as part of the outcast tribe twist) I think a "no merge" season would be a great twist - though I'm not sure what they will do with challenges. If Ulong continues to shrink, the challenges will have to get a lot simpler very quickly.

I think he just meant "no merge tonight". Of course at the rate things are going, there may not be two teams left to merge

Maybe the double tribal council was to prevent Koror throwing the challenge in order to eliminate Willard.

I don't think Tom could throw any kind of competition even if he thought he wanted to. Just too much of a competitor. I don't think Ian would, either, but the rest of them??? You never know, although I didn't hear any references to that possibility on the show.
