I don't really know where to post this: It's a theory I had, and I know it's probably not gonna happen, but I thought it was a cool idea and so I want to post it anyways.

I thought it would be neat if we followed this group of All-Stars around until they had a final six (or final eight). Then in the next episode, the whole episode would seem as though it was the first episode of the series (with the Mogo Mogo, Chapera and Saboga boats), but then it would pan away and show three OTHER boats, each with three OTHER tribes on them.
They would then go on to introduce 18 other All-Stars who have, in fact, been playing the game the whole time without us (the viewers) knowing they were there.) They could then have a further 12 episodes showing how the first 12 of the new 18 All-Stars get voted out. During these episodes, they could have periodic flashbacks to the original 18 All-Stars so we know at what point of parallelity they are at.
Of course, everything would have to be offset by a day, so that the tribal councils and challenges and things don't collide. (Jeff Probst would have his hands full!)

THEN when the new All-Stars have been whittled down to six (or eight), the two groups are introduced to one another for the first time (being, for all of them, a HUGE twist) and they go on from there, competing down from 12 (or 16). This would also make the game longer and thus, more trying for the All-Stars (I always thought it was odd that for so-called All-Stars, they practically give them the same challenge as they've previously done [39 days] instead of raising the stakes to something like 50 or 60 days.)
Anyways, I thought that would be a very interesting twist to see. The only thing is... there would have definately been some spoiler info on this if it were at all true, so I'm certain we won't be seeing anything like this.

...

OK, so I really thought alot about my theory and I even thought of who would be on each team! So I'll list my picks...

Blue TribePurple TribeOrange Tribe
Christy Smith (Amazon)Darrah Johnson (Pearl Islands)Deena Bennett (Amazon)
Frank Garrison (Africa)Gretchen Cordy (Borneo)Gervase Peterson (Borneo)
Helen Glover (Thailand)John Carroll (Marquesas)Jon Dalton (Pearl Islands)
Jeff Varner (Australia)Matthew von Ertfelda (Amazon)Neleh Dennis (Marquesas)
Kelly Wiglesworth (Borneo)Michael Skupin (Australia)Rodger Bingham (Australia)
Ken Stafford (Thailand)Penny Ramsey (Thailand)Teresa Cooper (Africa)


These would be my picks for most influential Survivors besides the 18 already picked. I also tried to pick an equal amount from each series (as much as possible anyways)

So that is the Parallel Game Theory. There is another group of 18 Survivors playing at the same time, and at some point, the two games, which are indepentantly ignorant of one another, will merge.

Post your thoughts, or your picks for the players of the Parallel Game... Maybe we could make a game out of it by voting out people from each tribe... like having one (or two, or three) people from TVCH representing each of the Survivors above, and competing and stuff... hey, that sounds like kind of a neat idea... *goes off to think and plan and scheme*

Pad, you have definitely been wearing your thinking cap!! You need to go work for Burnett.

I would really like to see Pappy and that good-looking Air Force boy (old age creeped in and I can't remember his name but sure can remember his body ) in there somewhere.

Now, these characters are not Survivor All-Stars, so I believe there is yet another group of 18 cartoon characters, be they Looney Tunes or Super Friends or what have you, just waiting to meet up with the survivors of this group. I keep checking Saturday mornings, but so far, nothing.
