If someone pops up with the fake II, will they be able to protest that this went beyond usual gameplay? Will they be able to get the person responsible penalized? I was surpised to discover last night, that if you have II you are supposed to speak up and hand it over to Jeff before the votes are counted--I didnt know that, I thought you handed it over when you were named as the ousted one. This way, you could lose the Idol for nothing if you thought you were going and you werent. Then the darn thing is useless.

Yep, that's a good twist, don't you think? Since Survivor is "Outlast, Outwit, Outplay" I don't think there will be any penalty for someone who fakes an immunity idol. It would be just good gameplay, IMO. And realy funny. Of course, it really is funny because nobody would suspect sweet, doddering Yau-Man of such duplicity. That's what makes it even better.

they didn't oust johnny fairplay when jeff & CBS found out he lied about his grandmother dying. heck, jeff even said they called to offer condolences. LOL so, why would they oust someone for tricking another over the II? i think the plan is brilliant if it comes out!

Cable, the "giving up the idol before the votes are counted" thing is new this year. And I think it's a great twist! I'm dying to see if someone uncovers the fake idol and then uses it at TC. Yao-Man would've "outplayed" someone, and there's no way he'd be penalized. I'll love it!

I forgot about old Johnnie Fairplay and his 'dead' grandmother--I guess anything is allowed. Should be interesting.

I never in a million years thought I'd be logging on to say this, but . . . I love me some Yau-Man!!! He was so cute, last night . . . creating that faux immunity idol, wrapping it up and tying it carefully, and burying it for others to find. He was like a little kid, pulling a prank on his friends. I can't wait to see what happens.

I liked Yau-man from the beginning, but now I just think he's terrific. I really, really hope that someone digs up the fake II.

We had this question in the TVCH Trivial Pursuit game the other day. What was Jimmy Durante's theme song? Answer: Inka Dinka Doo. And I have always loved Yau Man. Now, in case anybody has not noticed, Yau Man is filling what appears to have become one of the mandatory Survivor casting slots: the middle-aged eastern/oriental/asian shaman.
