This is a section that will be used for pictures used in the spoiling of Survivor XIII. It's kept separately from the other Spoiler discussion thread because some people have problems loading a discussion thread when it is filled up with pictures.

Went to one of my favorite places first ... TDT ... and brought back this information.
The cast will arrive in and be tossed off of a sailing ship in an attempt to tie in Aitutaki's historical ties to the Captain Bligh/ mutiny on the Bounty story. Overhead shots of the ship in question have popped up in CBS TV ads, with rafts for the four tribes attached to it: red for the Aitutaki (Latino) tribe; yellow for Manihiki (African-American); green for Puka Puka (Asian-American); and blue for Rarotonga (Caucasian – tribe). Our guess is that, unlike the past two seasons, there will not be a challenge immediately following the cast introduction. Instead, we'll see the four tribes jumping ship, separating into their tribes, and rowing off to their camps. Which would explain why all 20 contestants are seen in camp in the pre-game press footage.
At some point after arrival, the contestants will assemble for their cast picture. Immediately following this there will be a challenge. The clothing the contestants wear in the cast pics is a near-perfect match for what we see them wearing in the challenge. This first challenge is an intricate obstacle course which also involves rowing, and puzzles and building a ladder. As you might expect, the challenge is a multi-stage event. From the vidcaps the sequence is fairly clear: (1) Race over the berms to the beach; (2) assemble your rowboat, using planks to attach the pieces; (3) row out and get fire; (4) go back to the beach, race back to the wall with fire and planks; (5) put your planks on the wall to build a ladder;and (6) the entire tribe climbs the ladder to light a barrel at the top. TV Guide's print edition shows a picture of the Aitutaki (red) and Puka Puka (green) tribes rowing color-coded boats, each with a single contestant holding a lit torch. In the CBS ads, we also see shots of Rarotonga (blue) assembling a ladder (and Parvati holding a lit torch), with Manihiki looking on, ladder pieces in hand. Someone from the RC-losing tribe will be exiled to an islandwith a fake ship! Who will it be? Not sure yet. The only detail we have so far is the Manihiki (yellow) tribe loses the first challenge. So it could be someone from that tribe, unless there's some other "twist" attached to the exiling, to avoid a 2-2 tie at tribal council. And an anonymous source tells us this is the case: The losing tribe will pick someone for exile from one of the other tribes. So who is it? Not Puka Puka: From the Puka Puka tribe, everyone is clearly visible when there's fire in camp. Again, assuming they get their fire from the challenge, that rules out Puka Puka. Not Aitutaki: From Aitutaki tribe, Billy, Cecilia, Ozzy, J.P. and Cristina are all visible in camp with fire, so they're all presumably safe from the first exile. Is it Jonathan?: Only four members of Rarotonga are visible with fire in the camp - everyone except Jonathan. Also, the four Jonathan-less Rarotongas are shown leaving the challenge looking disgruntled, and Jonathan is shown standing by himself at the challenge site. By process of elimination, Jonathan should be the first person exiled.
Completing the fake ship theme, the losing tribe will attend tribal council... in another fake ship. Who will it be? Probably one boot from the Manihiki tribe. Beyond that, we have no idea who it could be.

Here is a picture of the immunity idol.
Since it comes apart, obviously more than one team wins immunity.

That's alright Jan......I went ahead and brought some of the stuff on over here. If you could put this thread and the other spoiler discussion thread under one section, that would help because I like to change threads each week so the picture thread doesn't get all boggled down with pictures of weeks and weeks and weeks of stuff........thanks for your help!

Alaginger, is that silhouette of the girl detective from an old Nancy Drew book? I recognize it from somewhere.

In an interview with Jeff Probst, a lot of discussion went on........but I have pulled out the parts that might have some "spoiler" information in it. Jeff: "I found it exciting. Everyday I had no idea what was going to happen. When the season is over I think it will be considered one of the 5 best seasons we've had. There are heroes and underdogs that we haven't had in a long time. And three love connections. One is the strangest love affair ever in all of reality TV. There was more fish caught, octopus caught. And a record number of blindsides. That's why it's good to have non-gamers cast." Interviewer: What about having 20 contestants on the show? Jeff: It "keeps the Survivors on their toes. We can have a surprise boot maybe...2 boots maybe or the boots not on schedule".

La de da........de.de.de.......da.da.da
Sounds like one tribe doesn't take the chickens with them, thanks to a female -- that might be the reason for the title remark.
