Eduardo is suppose to be a really villain-type guy in Survivor: Fiji ... like another Johnny Fairplay.....remember him?

Wow! Great pictures, Ginger! Such fun, and you look absolutely beautiful. It would have been neat if you and hubby were queen and king, together. How are the king and queen chosen? Did I miss that?

Inky......the club votes for a Ball Captain, and in some cases we only get one entry for the year, so she is a given. Then the Captain inducts Maids to the Court and asks hubbys of members to run for King. Resumes are put into the May newsletter which comes out the end of April with a ballot sheet to either mail in or bring to the May luncheon. The winners are the gal and guy with the most votes from the membership.....and they get a surprise visit at their home from the Captain, Co-Captain and President of the Club.....and are then sworn to secrecy for one year (in my case two years because of Hurricane Katrin).

Well, the first booted spoiler was right! I hate to see the first three from the same team, but we have seen underdogs come back before!

Did you notice that Gary was not featured at all? Guess they did not want to give any attention to the quitter.

I read that this was supposed to be another divided by race edition but since the person quit before it started they had to change that I think they should always try to cast a diverse cast like this!!! I think Jessica got screwed, I liked her all ready, sorry she had to go. Syvlia also gets screwed...when she picked tribes it looked like she was making one of them the dream team that she figured she would join and now she has to go to loser tribe

I'm glad you mentioned that Pamy - about being divided by races again. I kept wondering how the teams would have been divided if the "quitter" had stayed. I can't help but wonder if Sylvia would have had a better chance at staying long enough to make the jury. I will share now, that after I digested the fact that Sylvia was on this cast, my first reaction was recalling her strong (peppy!) personality and her high level of intelligence. My gut was telling my heart that she wouldn't last long. She is one who "goes for it" and would never go under the radar. That's why she is so successful in her business and in her life.

I definitely thought this bunch had the same sort of casting call as last season (not to mention a blonde backlast ) Sylvia got a raw deal. Of course she had to use her talents and so she got stuck in the spotlight, sent to the snakes and that mostly happened because they didn't have anyone around to replace the quitter. Seems to me they should have had that.

I don't think it was Sylvia's "talents". I think it's gonna be her attitude, or tone of voice. Although everyone agreed she took charge, she was a bit bossy on more than one occasion. And that never goes over well this early in the game.

I didn't say her talents would get her booted, but her talents put her in the spotlight, which forced her to choose teams, go to exile island, miss bonding, then end up on the first loser team. And considering they were lying around and didn't get their roof up before dark and rain, I'd say she had reason to be bossy. Sheesh! They had everything provided for them!

Pamy - we usually agree on most things, but I actually thought that Sylvia was trying to make pretty even teams when she did the dividing. That is certainly what I would have done if I didn't know where I was going to end up -

I'm with TNT on this... I thought she was doing a pretty good job of evening out the teams. Notice that she evenly picked the women first, and then the men. It looked to me like she picked fairly. And Sea, I'll disagree, again. She could've used her skills without bossing people around. She could've showed how to read the plans, and let others take charge. Instead she CHOSE to be the boss (and be bossy). Sometimes I wonder if people ever pay attention to past Survivors... you do NOT want to call attention to yourself the first few days.

Think about how close they were, too, during the comp. The one team was in the lead, then the other got caught up. They were pretty close though, most of the way. And they were close solving the puzzle, it's just that Jessica choked (under pressure?).

Yep, she could've studied up better but maybe she's been busy with life and when you are used to directing people AND when you'd love to have a roof over your head I suppose it is hard to go passive out there. I'm curious now how she (and the next exile) will go about looking for the hidden idol right in camp. Hope we get to see where it is and how close they come. Clearly Sylvia didn't find it! Well I cannot say that but probably she didn't.

OMG I forgot about that little twist... the HII back at camp. Which means that... if you are on the losing team, and you get sent to Exile Island, you cannot even start looking for it if it's in the "have's" camp. And I don't recall... which camp did they say it was in? Or did they?

I agree.. they didn't say that but just said that she wouldn't find the idol here (EI) but back in your camp. So that sounds like, since we know there are two, maybe one in each camp.

Sea and Tnt, that was my take on the clue Sylvia received at Exile Island. The clue didn't specify which camp but said "back at camp". And Sea, I tend to agree with you, if Sylvia had found the idol once back at camp, then she wouldn't be the 3rd to go as the spoilers suggest.

I think the new rule about using the idol before the votes are counted may come into play as we have seen folks blind=sided before on this game!

There are two idols. I assume one at each camp. The first year of the immunity idol, it was near the camp. Remember when Gary found it in a tree near the camp.

Ahhhhh, but the people who have been to Exile Island will have clues as to the location -

I was shopping at Macy's the other night, and I looked up and there was the china they are using in the luxury camp. It's Mikasa Parchment Red fine china. A five-piece placesetting is $59.99. link

Eggie, I don't really think she finds it, but if she did, and it was used to save her.. I mean she could have been targetted, used it and then targetted again.. but I think she didn't find it.. I don't think they want to have it as easily found this time anyway, and she leaves as we have heard, unfortunately. Now if the exiles are smart, they will NOT come back to camp and tell anyone that there is a hidden idol there.

OK, so I've been prowling around and... I can't find the post that listed the boot order. Or at least the one that specified the final six then final four. I thought F4 was Yao-Man, Cassandra, Earl, and Dreamz, but I can't find any record of it. Who was in 5th place? Could that be the person who plays the fake idol?

Oops. I had just glanced at that list and then after I posted it seemed not quite right. And I wish Michelle had stayed longer as well. And Alaginger you do such a wonderful job! I love to peek in here.
