I didn't understand that. But maybe that's part of the new changes in the game. But in the past players like Jeff V. and Clarence were held back by those prior votes.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. In the past, they've only looked at previous votes cast if there's been a tie. Last night it was 5 vs 3 against Ken.

They stopped having previous votes count last season, I assume it remains the same this year. And that is only in the event of a tie anyway.

Previous votes only counted in S2. In S3 they had a quiz as a tie-breaker and in S4 they used the different colored rock as a tie-breaker.

Hopefully they have dropped the rock this season.. along with the lame option to give away immunity.

Nobody gives away immunity, what, are you nuts?!?

Especially not this group. These are NOT selfless people.

I figure they won't tell the penalty for a tie unless one happens. Keep them guessing.

In the episode where Ghandia was talking to Helen about voting Clay out instead of Ted, she mentioned that if there were 3 votes for her and 3 for Clay or Ted, then it would come down to a 2 minute conference and the rock in the bag.

I don't know if this was just an assumption on her part or if it's really the way it would play out in S5.

Regardless, I'm glad previous votes don't count, but I don't like the rock in the bag either. Puts everyone at risk.
