When Terry says 2 weeks, that means 4 tribal councils. They go to tribal council every 3 days, so it would take 12 days to get rid of the other 4. Being safe for 2 weeks means getting to the final 6. It still was a weak attempt.

Pamy..I might pay to see Kid Rock in a porn, but NEVER Shane!!! I thought the II could be GIVEN to another player....as in BRIBE. When Terry walked over to have the Immunity necklace placed on him, he looked pretty puffed up with himself. I think he just couldn't bring himself to lose. He also has no skill at bringing others into his side. He actually left them feeling insulted. He took a pose of power, when he was in the beggar position.

I still can't believe that the others listen and are under the control of Shane.

I think what Terry made a big mistake. Once the vote was done, he should have stepped up and saved Nick with the idol. Shane would have been gone, the group would have been tied and he would have Nick's loyalty. Of course, there would have been a risk surviving the tiebreaker. Once the groups were tied, then he could have started negotiating. As it is now, he will have to win immunity every week. Because the first time he does not have it, he is going to have to use the idol and the following week he is gone. Of course, if they vote for Terry anyway to force him to use the Idol, his teammates are going to vote for a Casaya member and when Terry uses the idol, that person is going to be gone. Is any of Casaya going to willingly be sacrificed to get rid of Terry? So unless they are willing to sacrifice one of their own, he is going to put pressure on them because if they want him out, they are going to have to start voting his teammates off before they can get to him. This will give him time to work on the fringe members of Kasaya. Cerise and Bruce have to know that they will be the next ones out after Terry is gone. The original four took some pains to tell them that earlier. So he needs to stress that once they get down to six, they will be voted out. If he can win one more immunity challenge before then, he could last until his tribe is down to him and one other. If it gets down to Terry and one other left from Minta, and the other person wins immunity, it would force Casaya to vote one of their own off. Since they know both of them were safe, it would be a good time to work on Cerise and Bruce to flip. Of course there are a lot of ifs in there, but I do see where with some good playing and a little luck, Terry could swing things so he is in the majority. I do not see how anyone else on his team could do that without winning a series of immunity challenges. That is not likely to happen. If I was guessing, I imagine they will just follow their plan, vote Minta off one at a time then turn on each other. They have appealed to Bruce's ego, calling him their leader and he might just be dumb enough to believe it. Cerise will probably not have the guts to turn on Casaya and will go willingly to the slaughter. Of course the closer they get to the end, the more important the immunity challenges become. They can change the whole game very quickly.

Nick in his interview said that it was pretty obvious to him that Aras was the leader of the Casaya tribe. It looks like it's just editing that makes it look like Shane has any influence.

I don't think this was possible. Jeff said "unless someone has given you the Immunity Idol" not "unless someone gives you ...", which I thought meant the Idol had to be given to Nick before the vote.

And it wouldn't have been possible to have been tied. It was 4-6 prior to the vote. It would be 4-5 if Shane (or another Casaya member) left. Who is "Minta"? Is that La Mina? They can still force Terry to use the II if they force a three way tie (3-3-3). If Terry doesn't take himself off, don't they not let those three vote? So they'll still get a 2-2-2 tie. At that point, I can see Terry taking himself off with the II. Casaya would have to think this thru, think who should go up against Terry, and then be strong to follow thru with the votes. However, I don't think Casaya will think this through, nor do I think they are strong enuf or cohesive enuf to give this plan much thought. It could work, but it won't in their case.

Why are there 3 people being voted for AFTER the tie? Also, aren't the 3 people involved in the tie now exempt from the vote, if the tribe can't come to a decision?

Gotta give these 40-something guys props for playing b@lls to the wall on these challenges. They aren't gonna give any quarter to the younger guys and expect none in return. Terry is what has got me still watching this season. Go hottie!

Any of the Survivors should realize they are 100 percent sure to win by taking Shane all the way to the final two. I can see the wisdom of not voting him off.

Eeyore, if there is a 3-way tie, the three who were tied don't vote. But the others still vote for the 3 who were tied. To get a 3-way, La Mina votes for a Casaya, and Casaya splits their 6 votes 3 to Terry and 3 to someone else (probably Austin).

I like the way Terry is playing -- although I think he could use better negotiating skills -- I like the fact that he refuses to lose. The best way to keep from being voted off is to keep winning immunity and I wouldn't reveal that I had the II no matter what!
