Hermione, it was Jenna Lewis. Jenna and Ethan were on team 54. There were other survivors on the 2002 challenge. Kelly Wiglesworth was on team 64. And John Burton Roberts was on team 70.

Here is the link for those who would like to check out the challenge and other teams:

Hermoine-Could you please post Christy's website addy?

She would have made a great castaways on All Stars. If she is not in, I hope that they did ask her, and she was the one who turned them down.

alaginger, is that burton in that picture?!? MB must really love him -- 2 shows, a twist that brings him back in S7. goodness!

carrie, my thoughts on your list of boots: i agree. richard is the first to go. in fact, his team'll probably throw the first challenge, just to make sure he has no chance at the prize. (unless MB pulls the damn outcast twist again). but i don't see tina as #2 (unfortunately, perhaps). i think she's on a much stronger team (go rudy, go rupert). i see jenna m as 2nd boot.

and for the benefit of hermione: too bad jon isn't on this show, eh?

Surreal ~ I was thinking the same thing ~ is that the same Burton but playing two different games under two different names? And we're suppose to believe that MB doesn't realize that? Could this be the big lie?

Eco Team #70 ~ bio for John Burton:

If this is true and MB is in on it, talk about stacking the deck against the rest of the other Survivors. Can anyone else say FOUL!!

Sorry ~ I was so upset at the thought of MB purposely setting this Survivor up that I forgot to thank all the people responsible for this great spoiler of who is going to be on the All Star Survivor!! Ayyeeeee . . . . THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! When I first heard of this, I thought WHY?! But now seeing who's going to be there, I want to see Colby and Rupert kick everyone else's ass. I just hope Rupert is well recovered!

Can't wait to see Richard and Susan and Jerri and Jenna as the first four to go!

Regarding the whole Burton issue...My big questions is....why is it a big deal? So he's been on another reality show...so what? His team certainly didn't WIN the eco-challenge.

And the other three players were on Survivor first..then Eco-challenge. Any "advantage" there?

While the name change bothers me, the fact that MB has the same people on two different shows does not. If they're good entertainment, they're good entertainment.

Eco-Challange is not a show that is cast, anyone with a team and a sponsor to pay the ridiculously high entry fees and moola for lots of equipment can enter. It would appear to me that most of the entrants wouldn't get on TV unless they were in the lead at some point.

However, from all that I've seen from Burton, his family seems to have major moola. He comes from an OLD prominant St. Louis family and his family owns the computer gaming firm that he is marketing director of. The big lie might come out of Burton hiding his money from the survivors, but there is no foul in his participating in MB's race.

Whoops!!! Haven't been back to this thread in awhile. I just posted that picture to go along with Gen's post right above it. That is Burton. I have no idea what eco-challenge is, nor what the consequences would be......but it is ironic that the name is different. But.......I do not think this is THE BIG LIE. Burton could very well be the one that tells the lie, but I don't think it is about this because why in the world would it even come up during the process of the game? I agree with Meli that it is no big deal!

Operation All Star
The cold war with spoilers begins once again. Despite SEG's military style operation to cloud the top secret activity on the islands, some light is still poking through. (And they would have gotten away it with it if it weren't for these darn kids!)

By: The Wingedmonkeys at SNN

In a recent article published by The Age in Australia, Mr. Burnett mentioned that the host country for All Star Survivor (ASS) is going so far as closing down the air space and waterways, as well as getting the contestants there under the cover of darkness. Mark, we almost thought you had stopped caring about us.

Effective November 3rd, airplanes are prohibited from flying below an altitude of 5,000 feet in the vicinities of the islands Saboga, Chapera, Mogo Mogo, Gibraleon, Casaya, Casayetta, Boyarena, Bolanos and Bayoneta. Navigation restrictions also went into effect around Chitre, Saboga, Chapera and Mogo Mogo.

Without violating the restrictions, snippets of action can be observed from the right vantage points using high powered binoculars.

Our All Star castaways sporting clean, new buffs got moving early on Monday, November 3rd to start the game. Here is a breakdown of the information we believe to be true:

Tribe Colors: The three tribal colors are reported to be Blue, Green and Red.

TDT map

Tribe Islands: The Blue Tribe is on Saboga. The Green and Red Tribes are sharing the island of Mogo Mogo.

Tribal Council: As previously reported, TC is reportedly located at Playa Suecas on the island of Contadora.

Challenge Islands: For now, we have confirmation that Chapera will be used for Challenges again. There might be other islands as well.

Losers' Lodge: If the activity and night time lighting is any indication, Survivor will be using the island of Perico again to house the booted players.

Twists: We do not know what the twists will be for ASS but with three tribes of six players (18 total) and if the game is only 39 days as usual, the course of play is bound to be unconventional if they're to finish on time, but more importantly keep these seasoned players on their toes. We believe that the first Tribal Council on day 3 involved only one tribe, however.

To the best of our knowledge, here are how the three tribes breakdown:

Blue: Ethan Zohn, Rudy Boesch, Rupert Boneham, Jenna Lewis, Jerri Manthey, Tina Wesson
Green: Richard Hatch, Colby Donaldson, Lex Van den Berghe, Jenna Morasca, Shii Ann Huang, Kathy O'Brien
Red: Rob Mariano, Rob Cesternino, Tom Buchanan, Alicia Calaway, Amber Brkich, Susan Hawk



We do find it an intriguing mix. But could Green Tribe's horses Rich, Colby, and Lex be stopped in challenges? Stay tuned...

I am soooo excited about Rupert's team...they are the MOST loyal team players of all...they should go a long way (except maybe one or two)...because they WILL stick together until they don't have to anymore.

When is the filming of all star survivor? Will Lex still be able to do the summary reports for this season? Probably already discussed and answered, I just missed it.

mybb-all star is filming as we speak, and will end a few days before Pearl Islands ends here (one reason the finale and reunion show for this season is in Panama City, because Rupert is in the show-so if he makes it to the end, he has a few days to recover before the finale)

new stuff from USA Today

-CBS will announce this week the premiere will be on Sunday, Feb 1st-right after the Super Bowl (which CBS airs this season).

-the season is 14 original episodes, not 13 and a recap

-the airing schedule will work out so that the finale is the week BEFORE the final episode of Friends (good call CBS)

-winner still gets $1 million supposedly, but the other values have been increased- 1st one out this time gets $25,000 instead of $2,500.

-MB says two people he asked declined to participate, didn't say who.

From SNN:

In an October 31st conference call, Mark Burnett announced that the Survivor 7: Pearl Islands finale would be taking place in Panama City, Panama.

However, according to a credible source close to CBS, plans may have changed. Surrounding the rumor is word of a fire in a facility that burned to the point where it became unusable for the finale. As a result, the source said, Mark Burnett moved the finale back to Los Angeles.

We don't have any additional details at this time, but will provide an followup later on as new information comes in.


Just wondering if anyone here thinks this may indicate that some of the S7 players didn't get too far?

Ameliasmommy

Oops. Nevermind. I thought it was the S8 season that was changed. I'm all mixed up. LOL

Redstar

The S7 Finale has been moved to LA, see RNO article: http://www.realitynewsonline.com/cgi-bin/ae.pl?mode=1&article=article3828.art&page=1

The facility didn't burn - it collapsed.

Yes, I think it probably means that no one from S7 is currently still alive in the S8 game, and most likely didn't even make jury.

Redstar and Ameliasmommy, I don't understand why you think that this means that no one from S7 are still in the S8 game. S8 is due to finish on December 11th, while the S7 finale is December 14th. People on S8 would still have plenty of time to travel back to LA for the S7 finale. Have I got the timing wrong?

Starshine40

Tuesday, November 18, 2003 - 02:07 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Gen, your timing is right. Plenty of time for Rupert (of S7 & S8) to get back to LA in time for the finale of S7.

Thanks Starshine! I thought maybe someone had found some new information.

Ah, now I see why the thread I started in General Discussions about the finale maybe being moved had little response. Y'all are already on top of it over here! I could have sworn I checked out existing threads to make sure I didn't duplicate info before starting a new thread. Guess I better get these glasses changed!

That's alright Who, there are people that read the general discussions that never come over here. They would never know if you hadn't started that thread.

Gen, I guess it was just wishful thinking on my part since it's getting to the point where I can't stand Rupert.

Someone mentioned that Mark B. asked two people to do All Star Survivor who declined. Elizabeth from season 2 (Australia) was on the View yesterday (trying to be an anchor) and said she was asked to participate but didn't accept the offer. Don't know if it was idle chatter or really happened, but that's what she said.
