Loveyouless | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 07:51 pm     When do the tribes merge? This is my first season of Survivor |
Sweetpea1994 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 08:01 pm     Hopefully not before we get to see the Fab Four (insert sarcasm here) tear into each other. (I'm speaking of Morgan's Andrew, Osten, Ryan O. and Tijuana. |
Cinder | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 08:10 pm     Generally the tribe merger- or at least move to the same camp- after 6 shows- when there are 10 survivors left. |
Needmylifeback | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 08:13 pm     Ohhh...if it's the same as the others....that means after Darrah, Tijuana and Osten are gone then....(Andrew and Ryan O. are the tightest then Osten and Tijuana...)...So if Drake keeps up their winning streak....we'll only have the last two Morganites come in and be slaves to the Drake tribe... |
Watching2 | Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 11:35 pm     I'd like to have Ryan O. be my slave. I think he should switch shorts with Osten. Then we might get more than a quick little peak. LOLOL Actually, tonight was the first night I noticed how good looking he was, esp. his eyes. He can stay as long as he looks good and comes out to play. ROFL  |
Sweetpea1994 | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 05:12 am     Hey watching2 check out the I love this season thread. ;) |
Watching2 | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 01:06 am     Will do Sweetpea! |
Watching2 | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 01:12 am     Ohhhhh.... yes... I admit I did "VIEW it" before, but I HAD TO view it AGAIN Sweetpea. LOLOLOL They most certainly are keeping us entertained this season.  |
Dogdoc | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 04:43 am     Didn't Jeff tell Morgan at the 3rd campfire that if they lost one more person that they wouldn't have a tribe? I wasn't sure what he meant by that. He did seem to enjoy their predicament. |
Needmylifeback | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 08:29 am     Jeff told Morgan that 4 more tribal councils and they wouldn't have a tribe....at the third tribal council...so that equates with the 6 or 7 TC's that have happened in the past before the merge... I think the merge goes along with 9 people...7 on the jury and the final 2...But then...that would be the 8 on Drake and only one Morganite.....Hmmmmm..... |
Landi | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 11:56 am     nope, there is always 10 at the merger... the first one out doesn't belong to the jury. remember jeff varner of survivor:australia made it to the merger but not to the jury. |
Reader234 | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 12:32 pm     and there is speculation based on previous survivors that a shake up "trade" could happen... the one year I watched they all had to stand on circles, and they turned the circles over and found a differet buff - that then evened out the tribes... didnt that happen with the all male/vs all female season, one from each tribe picked the new tribes? All this prior to merge, and it seems to be decided by MB?Jeff Probst? producers? |
Maris | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 03:03 pm     Last year there was a competition and the winners of the tribe got to pick and trade members of the other tribe. They took turns, picking their new tribe. |
Spear | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 07:29 pm     S3: There was a three-member swap in episode 5; three members were selected by the tribe for what they thought was a competition. S4: There was a random swap based on disks in episode 4. Anywhere from zero to five members could have switched tribes, but it ended up being a three-member swap. S5: Tribe members were asked if they wanted to switch tribes in episode 5. No one chose to switch so it's not known what would have happened. Also, this was the only season where the official merge occurred at 8 instead of 10 people. S6: The youngest person in each tribe was selected to form new tribes in episode 5. This also ended up being a three-member swap. |
Not1worry | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 08:01 pm     Nice summary, Spear! I was trying to remember them all and couldn't put it together as well as you did. |
Needmylifeback | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 07:58 am     Oh, Please let them just ask them if they want to switch and no one does...I'd really like to see an (almost) all Drake team merge! |
Enigma2 | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 08:41 am     Thanks for the information, spear. I have been anticipating a 'swap.' And after one more show of seeing the 'total winners' (Drake) and the 'total losers' (Morgan), I think that we will be ready for a more balanced set of teams for the competitions. Besides, at the rate we are going, we will be down to only 4 from each team compeating. (Drake will be 'sitting-out' more than half their team.) |
