Help Me please....
This is what I get when I try and do a poll, or get the insider clips, or any video on the CBS site. I used to be able to view these, but can no longer get them. Here's a C&P of the shortcut:

javascript:openWin('/primetime/survivor8/insider/index.php?chapter=01_01',783,575,'insider','no')

I think it's the 'no' that is causing me problems.
I had this problem before on the HBO site, with The Wake and Moondance posted a link for me and then I could access it from there. Can anyone help me?

Thanks..

OK.. Disregard my previous post for now.. I played around a little bit with my security settings under the IE tools page and seem to be able to get them now. Hopefully, I didn't change anything major.

I don't know if this has been discussed before but does anyone know how long it takes them from the camp to tribal council. They always leave during the day and arrive at night. Could it be production stalling that makes them shoot it at night if they get there too early?

Also, how do they know where to go..do they follow someone? They have never shown they following a map to get there.

They do follow a map the first few times until they know the way -- and it has been said before that it takes two or three hours to hike to Tribal Council. They are probably told when to leave for Tribal Council, and if they do get there early, then they are probably stopped by production crew. If you'll notice, from previous SURVIVORs, they leave camp with unlit torches and get there with lit torches. Magic? I think not.

So obviously they have some contact with production crew that we're not aware of...

Don't they walk away from Council with their torches lit?? Why can't they use that fire to boil water??

Mmmm, ignore if this is too dumb a question

Jeff didn't let them take their torches back with them because they hadn't made fire on their own yet. They aren't getting a free ride (or flame ar anything) this time around. Until they make fire, it looks like the torches stay at TC.

Jeff was asked in an interview he just did what moments/twists he particularily enjoyed. He specifically mentions telling Saboga that they couldn't take the fire back to camp. You could see that just killed them when they heard it.

It's time to start a fire or drink that water folks! eeee..... Not easy. I'm expecting to see lots of desperation tonight. 35 minutes!!!!

I was wondering why the pictures of the voted off survivors haven't been crossed out or something. Also is anyone working on a banner showing just the two teams now?

Tishala, I always come over to chat, but I know some people don't so we need the thread for a record. I know in the past I have been upset when I came looking for a show thread and we didn't have one!!!!. And it is really hard to transcribe from Chat to the thread!!!!

Almost embarrassed to ask this, LOL..but I have to.

I missed a season or so of Survivor, and one was the infamous "Pagonging"...can someone explain what "being pagonged" means?

When the teams merge, one team will pick off the other weaker team one by one, til ony the first team is left and they start to pick off each otehr. Goes back to the first season. <now hoping I explained that right, lol.>

Sunnyone: In the first survivor, Tagi and Pagong merged together with 5 players each. Tagi got the upper hand by voting together to boot Gretchen, while the Pagong's all voted for different people. Once Tagi had a 5-4 advantage, they proceeded to vote out all of the remaining Pagong tribe.

So, Pagonging is when one tribe holds a majority and uses that advantage to eliminate all of the other tribe after the merge.

Sometimes the Pagonging tribe skips a week when they have a 2 person advantage and gets rid of an annoying player (or one who can not be trusted) on their own team. This happened twice in Australia by booting Jerri when Ogakor was up 5-3 and booting Amber when they were up 4-2.

Does anyone know what happened to the booted players being on Letterman the following Monday? I saw Richard Hatch, but Sue, and then last night Colby, have not been on (unless it happened while I was channel hopping during a commercial). Did Richard mess things up so much that Dave has refused to have anyone on, or has it moved to a different night?

Thanks Tish.

New question: Is the date of the grand finale of SAS known for sure? (We always have a Survivor pajama party, and we're trying to save the date!)

Start Spreadin the News
SNN has learned from a source close to CBS that the Survivor All-Stars finale will air live from New York's Madison Square Garden. The expected date is Sunday, May 9. The decision was supposedly made very recently, so info is still sketchy. More later as we find out

I got this from Survivornews, Hootyhoot.

Btw, May 9th is Mothers Day :-)

p.s I nearly typed your name as 'Hottyhoot' ;)

Does anyone know the exact amount of money each person received? Of course Amber got the million, and I heard Boston Rob got $250,000 ... but how much did Jenna, Rupert, Big Tom, Alicia, etc. receive?

Here's some info I found:

"Probst had plenty more to say about the show, even revealing such
news as the increased prize money for the final contestants.

The winner still gets $1 million, and though Probst didn't have the
specific amounts, he estimated the runner-up now will receive
$250,000, followed by $175,000 for third place, $115,000 for
fourth-place and $85,000 for fifth place. In prior seasons, the
runner-up received $100,000, so clearly the stakes are higher this
year, which Probst said had a bearing on the way the players played."


If the numbers above are right, then:
Amber $1,000,000
Rob $250,000
Jenna $175,000
Rupert $115,000
Tom $85,000
Shii Ann ???

I spent 45 minutes yesterday trying to find anything on the sums...and nada!
