He said in the show earlier that, a couple out there while playing ASS, really looked like they were romantically involved.
The way he said it had me belived that JP might have hyped thie "two fall in love" thing and are b.p.ing now about how, "at the time", it looked as if....

Many of you probably know this, but in case you didn't....
That C&P by Mckryan (28, Jan. 11 amish) was from a poster name Sleek28 on SSucks. There're over 800 posts in that thread! I tried to scan through it starting yesterday since we're snowed in up here. But I read kinda slow- remember this is not my mother's languege-, can't figured out what to believe at this point. Perhaps some one here could go and have a quick look.

Very curious! Sleek(er?)28 said Q (the tempermantal Mod. oversees the Spoiling BB on SS) had e-mails from him/er for proof about why people should believe his/er spoiler. But so far, after 5 pgs. I still can't tell if Q is dissing him/er or giving stemp of approval by not locking the thread?!?!

This poster also claimed that there're by posting all these info, s/he has ill wish towards the show???? One more thing, he also said that, in three weeks or so, all his intentions will be known????

Chy, I got through 30 some pages. Sleek28 sent information to "Griffe". She came back with a very vague message about he could be right, but not 100%. So when I left, I really didn't know much more than when I started. It is interesting that the voted off order is similar among Sleek28, SNews, and Chillone.

Thank you, Gen, for checking on that.
So it wasn't just my confusion. I did go back and tried to read some more. I even tried to start from the recent pages. In the 40s, there're mostly posters dissing each other, taking sides or what not.

If you could remember, where about was Griffe's massage regarding Sleek28? At this point, I don't even worry about the spoiling any more. I'm getting pretty hooked on that situatuion. Did Q ever come out and say anything else? Q is the one over there who scares me the most. Q says anything anytime he wishes. Plus, he's very moody. I know it's a hectic job, but he(must be a he to spew the kind of vocab all the time) doesn't have to be rude....

You're right Sleek28's stuff are basically the same with many others. But his is so much more detailed and vivid. It mentions editing and such, kinda make you go "HMMm...".

Hey, Gen. Way up there, (I missed it earlier,) Hippity, GAL and Reader234 did investigate that (when there were still only 30 some pages), some one found Q's answer.

That's so wierd. Sleek claimed he/she'd explain everything about identity in e-mail to Q, even thanked Q for not expose what he's told, but Q still doesn't believe Sleek! Well, I'm avoiding the truth. Q is calling him names, 80% sure he's a dork(made all up for attention?), 20% sure he's a plant.......

GAL, I'm so glad you pointed that out(about those posters making up dirty words). I was feeling so little there, can't understand most of the flaming words. When some called Kathy a MYWF, I turned and asked my 17 y.o. out loud what it ment. She did tell me but she & her guy friends in the room had a great laugh on me....

This isn't really a spoiler, but there is some good information in here and I couldn't figure whereelse to put it.
************
Julie Chen: The last time Survivor followed a Super Bowl, more than 45 million viewers tuned in. Now, three years later and with a cast of All-Stars, it is poised to return CBS' top reality show to the top of the ratings. CBS News Correspondent Tracy Smith caught up with the players and producers to see how the game has changed for this special edition.

TS: When Survivor: All-Stars premieres after Sunday's Super Bowl, it's sure to be a blockbuster night for CBS with tens of millions tuned in to hear four little words: "The tribe has spoken."

Having their torches have been snuffed once before. Most of the "All-Stars" are returning for a second chance and many of them with changed lives.

Lex quit his day job and got himself a new tattoo.

Lex: I look down at my can of whoop ass it's easier to just yank it out and pull it out anytime I want to.

Colby Donaldson landed a girlfriend.

Colby: The coolest thing was, right before I left, she said, "Know that you're going away, and in seven weeks, you're going to come home to a girl that absolutely loves you."

TS: And "Big Tom" Buchanan learned how to read.

Tom: How many millions of people watching and I can't spell? And I said, "learn to read: Don't be like Big Tom. Learn to read. And reading will learn you to spell and stuff.

TS: It's at tribal council where the fate of the Survivor: All-Star cast will be determined. But what's become of some of Survivor's past stars who you won't be seeing? Those who were not invited to this newly crafted ring of Survivor elite? Three contestants who survived all of their tribal councils will not be here. They are the winner's of Survivor Pearl Islands, Thailand and Marquesas: Sandra Diaz-Twine, Brian Heidik and Vecepia Towery, respectively.

JP: It’s very tough deciding whether winners should get an instant invite. In the case of someone like Vecepia, name a Vecepia moment. Name one memorable moment about Vecepia. That's not to say she's not a great player. She won.

TS: Of the non-winners, the biggest no-show may be Mike Skupin, the guy who, after falling into a fire pit in the Outback, became the only contestant unable to complete the game. How do you not pick somebody like that?

MB: Well, everybody was not completely available in their life. I mean, it was a big thing to give up eight weeks. I’m not saying I would have put Skupin in, but I happen to know that it wasn't really possible with his current life.

TS: Two contestants who were pursued but declined are Colleen Haskell, who went on to star in a feature film soon after season one... and Elisabeth Filarski, now Elisabeth Hasselbeck, the new co-host on ABC's The View.

Elisabeth: I just thought I did it. It was done, part of my life. Time to move on.

TS: But with so many great contestants to choose from, how did producers know when to stop?

MB: I could have had 24 people here and it would have been a great game. But there comes a time where in the real estate, the amount of television time, how many characters you can tell a story of? And 18, is the outer limits. Of those 18, 4 are winners, all of whom share relatively low odds of a repeat victory. I think all of the winners, especially Richard, have targets on their backs. No one made them come. They chose to come. I'm not going to level any playing field. The true sign of a champion: be a champion. Don't hide it, and still play better than the others.

TS: Here at the art department where challenges are designed and built, there is a lot of pressure to find new ways to test the game's best players.

Jon Kierhoffer (Survivor Challenges Producer): They're the All Star personalities from the show. The challenges will be as tough as any we've ever done.

JK: We decided the only thing appropriate would be to choose our favorite challenges from the previous 7 seasons and pump them up a little bit.

JK: So the first All-Star challenge will be a repeat of the first Survivor challenge ever: "The Quest For Fire". But while the game may look familiar to the Survivors, the pressure to prove their all-star status may be the toughest challenge of all.

JP: They are the All-Stars. All they talk about is: "We're the best" They're going to prove it this time. And it wont be easy.

Julie Chen: You can catch the premiere of "Survivor: All-Stars" this Sunday on CBS right after the Super Bowl. And don't forget to watch The Early Show Monday morning to get all the dirt and details from the first all star sent packing.

Chy, here are Griffe's posts that you asked about:

On Page 31 Griffe wrote after receiving an email from Sleek28:

LOL...what kind of payoff are you looking for, Idislikeeverything? There isn't much I can add to what has already been posted. Sleek has pretty much posted everything he wants to say.

All I can do is offer my opinion which is only worth anything to me...lol I don't think it's a hoax but nor do I think that the information and boot list is 100% correct.

I wouldn't press him for anything more though because if he's telling the truth, then I don't want him getting into trouble. Spoiling Survivor is something we do for fun... getting someone into trouble because of it is way too serious.

Edited by: Griffe at: 1/29/04 5:51 am

On Page 37 Griffe wrote about the email from Sleek28:

Back. That email last from Sleek came in really late my time. I should have waited until the morning to comment on it since I was very tired...lol

Anyway, re-reading his email and trying to find anything in it that can prove one way or the other that Sleek is telling the truth is next to impossible. Nothing in the email can be verified so for all I know this can be one big elaborate hoax.

I did ask Sleek one last question last night that could have at least given me some idea if it was possible he was telling the truth about what he did for Survivor and I didn't get a reply. So Q was right in that Sleek avoids and ignores specific questions.

So about his boot list... if something looks too good to be true then it usually is. I highly doubt the boots will turn out to be exactly how Sleek layed them out.

So I say we ignore this whole thing. If it turns out to be true, then as Q says, we can come back to this thread and say "well fancy that".

Krautboy at SurvivorBlows put this up today....interesting read about the first 15 minutes of the show:

A friend of mine, who "works in the industry", got to view the preview video of the first episode.
Here's what he had to sat about it:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
I watched it last night. Unfortunately, it cuts off just as the IC gets rolling, so I don't know who wins IC, and I don't know who goes home.

But I did see some things that confirm spoilers. The Immunity Idol is in fact two pieces, although Jeff does not spin the tale we've read. He just indicates that it represents Man and The Environment. Tribes that finsh first and second each win immunity and get a piece of the idol.

The IC is based on Quest for Fire, the first challenge on the first show. The groups start on platforms out in the water, swim to a floating torch on a platform, unhook it from the anchors, light torches, and swim to the next floating platform with a torch.

This continues until the free the last platform in the line, which they have to bring to the beach. Once they carry this thing onto the beach, they have to push it under an obstacle, and then carry to the finish and light the final torch. The TV guide picture is, as we suspected, the final moments of the IC.

Other tidbits: The suprising alliance is Rudy and Rupert. Rudy approaches Rupert, saying "I hear you are a man of your word," and proposes an alliance. Rupert agrees immediately, and is really happy that Rudy, the navy SEAL saw through all the tie die and hippie hair to what is inside. Typical Rudy, and typical Rupert. And a very interesting alliance.

Jenna and Jerri do seem to have an alliance, although nothing is explicitly said about it. Rob C seems to be getting along well with Alicia. Tom is disgruntled with his teammates, and dislikes RobM.
Jerri comments on the problem of being in the same tribe with Tina, who hates her. I think that comment foreshadowed Tina's ouster.

Another alliance forms pretty quickly as well. Robfadda and Lamber both complain about the shelter on day 2, and Alicia gets into a snit and gives Rob hell. Call that the anti-alliance. So Rob and Amber head off to gather some wood together and form an alliance. Rob says she's a good partner because she's gorgeous. (Same old Rob, I guess. But he's right. She looks better than she did in the Outback.)

A third alliance that springs up is between Kathy and JennaM, who are out for a walk. They are joined by Shii-Ann, who is afraid of missing something. What they don't realize is that King Richard is lurking in the woods listening to them.

When all six are back in camp Richard tells Colby and Lex what he heard, and they all get a good laugh out of it. They all realize they are totally paranoid, but agree to put aside all the game play until they finish the shelter and establish the camp. (Of course, they all want the others to stop plotting, but are perfectly willing to do so themselves.)

Richard is even more obnoxious this time around. He really is laughing at all of them, and doing nothing to help out. He seems to be begging to be ousted. He also looks really flabby, but he comments on how stupid the others were to show up so skinny.

BUT ... even though he's a complete pompous ass, and wearing a huge target, he's got a fan. Shii-Ann has nothing good to say about him to her teammates, but in confessional she says she wants to keep him around because he's entertaining, and the place wouldn't be the same without "King Richard." Boy, she IS stupid.

That's about all I can remember right now. The helicopters and naval escort are all real, and each group of six does not know who else is in the game. They meet up for the first challenge, and there is lots of excited smiling and waves. The biggest surprise to the others is the last guy to hit the beach, which is Rupert. He gets a cheer from the others two tirbes.

Oh, and there is this. Susan Hawk wears a bikini. Blecch.

Next Time on Survivor


They thought they'd seen it all the first time, but the All-Stars face a desperate situation none of them has known before.

A nervous castaway keeps failing miserably when trying to be useful to the tribe.

A female castaway is vexed by several male tribemates when she tries to show them how to make fire.

Despite being veterans of the game, a trip to Tribal Council is never easy. Who will be the next All-Star to fall?

Here is a romance article from Snewser's website:

Romantic ASS
Jeff Probst has been promoting a romance on Survivor All Stars. Was it typical Probst hype or was he telling the truth?
SNN
Sunday, February 1, 2004

By: The Wingedmonkeys

Everywhere you looked this week, Survivor: All Stars has been in the news or in promos with Burnett and Probst doing their usual publicity rounds. Probst has been hyping a true romance for this Survivor: All Stars. But was he exaggerating?

As many of you have guessed, the romantic duo is none other than Survivor Outback's Amber Brkich and Survivor Marquesas Rob Mariano. They do make a striking pair.

Eyewitnesses in the Pearl Islands swear the romance looked real. As a matter of fact, the duo left evidence behind when they left Panama... a romantic love letter that our Lothario had written to his pretty Dulcinea. I wonder how much this love letter would go for on eBay.

Let's hope that Rob Mariano doesn't pull an Ethan and starts going through Survivor beauties like bottle caps.

So Rob and Amber, Ethan and Jenna, how many couples come out of this? Of course, Ethan has been with quite a few of them so if it's "love" , it must be Rob and Amber.

Why aren't they using glasses to try to start fire? Several contestants wear them. One of the TV guide preview pix had Jenna L. apparently holding glasses while trying to start a fire. I'd try glasses before I'd try friction. When I was a kid we'd start little fires with magnifying glasses pretty east. I've NEVER started a fire by rubbing wood together.

Kathie for sure does, we saw her wearing them. They look like those 'special glasses' that are reading and near-sighted glasses at the same time (like tri-focals, but all the lines are blended).

In previous seasons both Jenna M and Jerri wore Rx glasses - but they may have had LASICs in the mean time. Did Rob C wear glasses? I want to say yes, but maybe it's just the 'nerd image' in my head and not reality.

On another site, someone posted that ordinary reading glasses would not focus the light rays enough to start a fire.

JP or MB said early on that they would be using spiced-up challenges from previous Survivor series. Here is a link to a summary of all challenges from each series - for reference.

http://resources.survivorphoenix.com/S8/challengespastoverview.htm

The challenges in the ASS E2 look similar to those from the E2 from Africa - "Stairway to the stars" and from Marquesas - "Do or Dive". Both were RCs, however in ASS one is IC and the other is RC. Some on another board seem to think that the "Do or Dive" is for RC and Saboga wins with the reward being fire. Also the Saboga loses the IC and goes to TC again. Any thoughts?

Survivor Insider is now FREE. You will find it on the CBS website. Since it is now free, you will have to endure a commercial at the beginning of each chapter. But they still have some stuff that was not shown during the program.

I was thinking Rudy is too obvious this week...classic misdirection by MB...then I remembered the week Rupert left, the ads pretty much told us he was going...to soften the blow since he was such a fan fav...I think that is what is happening with Rudy...damn!!! cuz I voted with my gut last nite and didn't pick Rudy!!!

I hope it isn't him, cuz he cracks me up!

What do you think Jeri's is crying about?? She looks very sad...I was thinking it was a look I would expect when she found out about Jenna'a mom, but that's not this week.

Also, do you think they will tell other tribes about Jenna's mom?

OK we're in spoiler thread...


(does the first line of our messages get put in the search new message feature?)

Jerri crying? that seems odd, I would have to say it must come from deprivation of water, food, and sleep... a win or a loss could bring tears... I think she is trying to portray herself more vulnarable this time around, which would lead to more tv opportunities after Survivor is over, imho of course!!

I dont think they will say/show the tribes about Jenna's mom.

Did you read Tina's transcript after her boot? She said that at TC she really tried to appeal to Rupert to get him to vote out Jenna, she was surprised that they didnt show any of that... it was interesting. I'm thinking there is another secret alliance they wont show us.. I find it interesting they show us some alliances, and not others, there is always a reason for the editing you know... wish I was better at reading minds!! I would've loved to see Jenna leave...
