Fruity......I see Alex in the water with Deena. I see Matthew with Jenna.

Here's a picture I just found that shows Dave??? in the water challenging(?) Butch??? I really have no idea who the two figures are.....but do you see the two poles with something dangling down a little bit from one of them. Possibly those 2 poles are some type of marker in the water marking the losing point. And then again, maybe not.......just posting pictures for you guys! pole

Thanks Ginger....what do you make of Alex being show with 2 different women in what appears to be the same challenge?

Fruit - if you look really carefully at the pictures above, with Jenna in them, it's Matthew that's her partner. Alex is definitely paired up with Deena.

jenna&matt

Hey DJ......I was just coming here to put on almost the same pictures. Mine are a little different, so I'll put them anyway....

Frankly Fruitbat, I haven't seen Jenna with Alex in any of these pictures, so I think you are seeing Matthew as Alex......unless you've seen something we don't realize what you are talking about. Here's my shots.

I thought someone said Alex was with Jenna. I am sure they didn't, now. It must be me. It is always me.

never mind......................

This picture does look like a tug of war, the other doesn't but I conceed. It must be. There has got to be a lot more to this though.

Yep......I'm sure there is a lot more......but we just don't have anymore pictures. I'm still hoping to find one of the log on a chain busting the masks that webkitty mentioned seeing on television. Haven't seen it on the Internet, yet!

Good points everyone about the RC. I just wish CBS would give us a clue on the IC. Butch's look could mean anything. It might not even be at the IC (but probably is)

If the IC challenge is the log on a chain smashing the mask, I am going to have re-think Dave winning. I would think he would be the first to be taken out. Its no secret at this point (after the vote at TC) that he is next to go, so that wouldn't be giving away any secret strategy. Maybe the look Butch has is Dave being taken out.
How could Alex go this week if Dave doesn't win immunity?
If Alex does go, I still think it will have something to do with the "words" that Roger said he had for Alex and Ron at the last TC.
I also think that Matt, not Heidi is the one who defects to the Butch/Dave camp this week. (maybe secretly) I haven't seen it, but I have read that Matt's pre-season tape shows him saying he will be slippery if he needs to.

I think Heidi sleeping with Dave is a double spy type of thing. I think her alliance knows she is doing it. They are all in on it, but Rob still doesn't like it.
Deena is shown on the commercial saying once again, that its HER game. Boy, is she being edited for a fall!

So, who wins the IC this week?

Alaginger

If this is an answer the question then go for your opponent, the the IC winner will probably be somebody who is not considered a threat at this point. (Butch, Jenna, and Heidi fall into that category --- right?) (I still think Christy has done too well on challenges not to be looked upon as a threat).

If this is a skill-type of challenge where the Survivor is trying to smash masks based on skill (or even not to smash their own mask --- think on that for awhile), then who do we know has good throwing and aiming skills. Isn't Alex suppose to be good at that kind of stuff?

I'm still leaning that it is the eliminate the other guy type of thing, and if so.......Dave doesn't stand a chance!!!

Alex was shown last episode wearing an ace bandage on his hand/wrist. It could mean nothing, but Jeff did make a point of saying at the start of the season, that there were many injuries not showcased, but that if we look closley, we will see players with various ACE BANDAGES and such. This is nagging at me. I don't think Alex wins this, jmo.

The log on the chain makes me think this challenge has nothing to do with accuracy or strength. I slow motioned my tape, and also froze it. It looks like the mask is right in front of the log.
Its got to be ~smash who you don't want to win immunity~ Dave has got to loose this, but I don't think he goes this week! Ack.

Anyway, I have to log off for awhile, talk amoung yourselves

PS: I just realized my first two paragraphs contradict each other! Whatever, I need a break....lol

I didn't see any one post this but has anyone been over at SS. The ChillOne thread is completely gone with no comment. All 2000 posts.

April Fool?

Chill himself posted in one of the threads that started up asking what happened, and did not seem to have deleted the thread. No statement from the board admins.

The whole Ezboard is funky today, so it could indeed be an April Fools joke. Guess we will see tomorrow.

he he he. The plot thickens. The thread is back...2800 posts +, but without ChillOne's posts. They have been deleted as have most posts that contained direct quotes.

There is only a brief explanation:

Posted by OkiLoki, one of the admins:

"Today I recieved an amazing and most unexpected phone call. I hope never to receive one like it again."

And one other from Antithesys, one of the moderators in response to a lot of questions from the regulars:

"This is probably legit. I got a similar "call" a while back...let's just say there are some TapeWatcher posts you've never seen...I'd tell you more but the admins might get mad at me."

People are going a little nutty over there. Of course the spec is that the call was from CBS.

My favorite theory is the one that there would be nothing CBS could do if indeed ChillOne was a tourist. The only ones they have any kind of legal control over are the cast and crew. Someone broke the non-disclosure agreement. Gdiva all over again.

Oh this is gooooooooooood. I love this kind of intrigue. So there is truth here or why the delete. I am going there now. To find not much other than confusion and outrage, I am sure.

Here is the last post supposedly from ChillOne in one of the many threads that popped up yesterday while the thread was being cleaned out:

"Simply ... the good majority of us do not have the ability to "control" this forum; specifically the thread that I started. Eventually, my thread will die ... be it at the end of Survivor 6, sometime this summer/fall, next week, or today. In any case, when its over, its over. Whenever that time is, I will look back and say that it was a good thing for this site and the spoiling community.

Looks like the web is closing.

Posted by Scott, the source for the past few seasons of each episode title weeks before they were officially announced:


"Over the past several weeks it has become apparent that either TV Guide or SEG has narrowed in on my source is effectively throttling it. While spoiling the Survivor listing, I have also
monitored other listing including those for CSI. Only with Survivor have I seen place holder listing, last minute changes, and even quite a few postpublication changes to the listings.

My original purpose in keeping my source secret was to avoid exactly this sort of distracting activity which only lessens ones confidence in the value of the listing. In fact, I said
at the outset that if the source turned out incorrect that I would reveal it. Certainly there is little if any point now in keeping this secret.

TV Guide posts listing on its server in advance of the publication date. This is probably in part as a contingency against power outages or mishaps that might otherwise occur at the last minute. It's probably also a work flow issue -
they want to publish 7 days a week but perhaps work less than 7 days a week - things are best done in batches larger than a day - that sort of thing.

In the case of Thursday listings, the listings themselves are posted on Tuesday at about 9am Eastern Time, 16 days before the listing date and 2 days before the publication date.
These listings are not readily accessible because there webpages are set up to only allow you to select from yesterday to 2 weeks
from today.

For those of us that can write HTML, this is no significant
obstacle. We can write our own selection for whatever dates we
want.

My thanks to SurvivorPhoenix for posting my HTML page for that
purpose. Here is a link:

They are closing the gaps...we are on our own!

Well, he certainly did call it up to this point.

I would love to think CBS/MB has decided to stop internet spoilers. That can only mean a tighter ship and more enjoyment for the show.

I have liked working with the spoilers because I wnt with what was there, but when it comes down to it there is nothing like the strategy talks in Austalia and Africa for entertainment.

I feel just like CNN here:

Damn, things are changing moment by moment. Snewser had pictures of/from Chill with his face blurred...other posters had access too.

Posting has begun...they are on his trail.

Suddenly the entire thread was yanked off the Spoiler board and relocated to the Sucks general discussion.


new home of ChillOne!

Stay tuned!

Gotta work tomorrow, sorry guys- I will let spoilers with more free time take it from here:

See, all the good stuff happens in the middle of the night. We waste good spoiling time after midnight.

The thread is now in the OT Dump. People are kind of bewildered.

2 days til showtime. Anything could happen now! Woo Hoo! Personally I am hoping for a huge upset and a surprise Deena boot...but I never get what I want. Dumb ol Survivors.

I take this to mean that Chill was right on in his preditctions and it got sqelched. So that would mean we remain at the same postion using all he gave us. No?


Why else would he be deleted?
