I'm glad Colby is still in the game, but I've been disheartened by his gameplay this season. James being gone is what it should be. He's been an ass all season, and karma is a b*tch.

Rob vs. Russell is a fun game. They're both arrogant as hell. One isn't more than the other. They're both alpha's. I hope they both make it to the merge.

By having individual immunity challenges before the merge, it put a target even bigger on those who win. Has this been done in past seasons? I usually think of it as after the merge.

Didn't Tom have the HII and played it which is why Cirie was voted off?

Kitt - Tom found the HII at the Heroes camp and played it the night that Cirie was voted out (I think).
Great minds - Roxip!

Did anyone notice how Russell turned and paused and read the faces of the tribe and used the time talking to coach to decide from the expressions he saw what he should do. Robs smirk gave it away. Smart move because he was still not locked into what he would do. Also gave Coach something to think about. Brilliant!!

I think what is really interesting about all this, and I think I read it here, was that this was filmed before any of the other tribe members had seen Russell's play on Survivor, so not knowing his game play and sneakiness is really helping him out.

Jimmer -- I can think of at least two other instances where someone gave away immunity.

One was Erik in Micronesia who was persuaded to give the necklace to Natalie at the F5 tribal council.

The other was also in Micronesia, when Jason decided to give the HII to Eliza.

What distinguishes Russell is what distinguishes everything he does... his bravado. Russell made a show of giving the idol to Parv. He made a bold statement.

Erik gave the immunity necklace Natalie at tribal council, but I don't think he ever got out of his seat and he certainly didn't make a big speech and stare down his tribemates. And more obviously, Erik had been tricked into giving the necklace to Natalie rather than it being a move that was part of an advanced strategy.

Jason on the other hand, chose to slip the HII to Eliza before tribal council. The fact that it was a fake idol doesn't really matter. Jason thought it was real and was willing to give it to Eliza in order to get farther in the game.

So while these two examples may not be identical to what Russell did, I'm simply pointing out that at least two other players have given away immunity.

Actually, we could count as a third the Alex/Mookie/Edgardo HII swap in Fiji. I think Mookie had the idol, then gave it to Alex. The tribe couldn't be sure which of them actually had it, so they cast their votes for the third man in the alliance, Edgardo, who was voted out.

Certainly the third man strategy was another option for Rob and the villains. They could have taken an even safer route and voted for Danielle. It wouldn't have been their ideal choice, but it was the least risky move. What Rob didn't count on was Tyson having brain freeze. That appears to be the only reason Russell or Parv didn't go home last night.

Thanks, so there should be two idols back in play now - if anyone other than Russell thinks to look for them!

One of the best lines ever in Survivor history was from Eliza to Jason: "It's a f<<**>>ing stick."

I LOVE the show Russell did during TC...it was his way of letting Rob know that Rob can't tell everyone how to play the game. Everyone should be playing their OWN game...and that message was very clear last night.

Not a Russell fan here...but kudos are in order...

Way to go Russ!!

You're correct Bbpeach! I knew there had to be other instances, but I had completely forgotten about that one!!

So that brings us to four other instances of competitors giving away immunity. The only difference is Russell did it with a bit more flair ((-:
