Assuming that Fang has all members except for Ken in bathing suit attire, it looks like Bob is the sole puzzle solver for Kota. Let's try to gather who is what for each tribe for the reward challenge. FANG Grabbers - Crystal, Randy Pole-Huggers - Dan Unknown - Susie (probably a Pole-Hugger), GC, Ken, Matty KOTA Grabbers - Charlie, Marcus, Robert Pole-Huggers - Paloma Unknown - Ace, Sugar Sitting Out - Corinne, Jacquie, Kelly It doesn't make sense that all three of those ladies are sitting out, because that would require Fang to sit out a member even though they have fewer people than Kota.

(Which I think would make Sugar the other puzzle solver in slip and slide?) To me, it appears to be Jacquie, Kelly, Corinne as sit-outs for E3 RC.

Posts: 581 (09/29/08 02:30 AM) MESS member More Recent Posts	there would only be TWO sitting out on Kota as it's 9-7. So having 3 of them sitting on the bench doesn't make sense. Do the ones who sit out sit with the players? If they don't associate during the challenge, then that by default, makes it so these 3 ladies are participating and not sitting out. But then again, when we look at the caps, we know Paloma, Bob, Marcus & Charlie play. We also see someone who is most likely Ace (being dragged by Crystal in the background). That leaves only Sugar (unseen) and the 3 amigos sitting on the bench. So at least 1 of the women sitting on the bench is not playing..but that brings me back to my original question. Are the ones who sit out allowed to sit with the players? And since we see in the IC, Corinne, Kelly, Jacquie and Bob are playing, (and most likely Sugar as she seems like she sat out in the RC), that means 2 people of the following have to sit out for the IC: Ace, Marcus, Charlie & Paloma. Paloma sitting out is probably a given. That means at most, Kota has 2 strong men for the IC. Add in the teaser that suggests the limp dishrag might get booted, leads me to think Kota loses IC as well. As for the IC, if you look at the pic of Krystal about to go down the slip & Slide, she's greased up (or wet) while the others aren't. So perhaps they get to slather up before going down the slide and Krystal is the first person to go on their team. It can't be "round 2" or the rest would be greased up as well. and yes, i know i'm rambling. just talking to myself to see what does and doesn't make sense. carry on :)

Fang now has 5 guys (Ken, Matty, Randy, Dan and GC) and 2 women Crystal and Susie. Unless they wanted to give Fang an unfair strength advantage, in a pure strength event. At 7 on 7 the best Kota can counter with is Marcus, Charlie, Ace, Bob and their 3 'best' women.

Posts: 1467 (09/29/08 07:11 AM) Registered user More Recent Posts	At this point I think we'll just continue with one thread. 8>) In Cook Islands, it was 7-on-7, three huggers and two teams of two pullers. All the huggers started on poles, and one puller team went at a time. So here we're saying they make both tribes play 2 women and 4 men? Everyone goes at once, first tribe to get both huggers over wins? (We see Crystal pulling on two different people, but perhaps there's not a two-on-one limit, she goes to help with a man hugger after she throws Paloma around.) Or there are multiple rounds, but people can/have to switch roles (cause it would be sorta dumb to keep doing the same thing over and over, although convenient for editing)? FANG Grabbers - Crystal, Randy Pole-Huggers - Dan Unknown - Susie (probably a Pole-Hugger), GC, Ken, Matty KOTA Grabbers - Charlie, Marcus, Robert Pole-Huggers - Paloma Unknown - Ace, Sugar Sitting Out - Corinne, Jacquie, Kelly I'd guess Ken sits out, just because he's lighter.

If they don't associate during the challenge, then that by default, makes it so these 3 ladies are participating and not sitting out. The only way I can see it is if they make the first two sit out and then anybody else out sits on the same bench which is why there are three sitting down. or Kenneth can just beat me to the punch.

Remove this ad Since I don't see Probst up at the top of the slip and slide, I kinda thought they might be going for distance off the end of the slip and slide. Maybe the markers in the water show distance. Just a thought eta: Maybe that's why Crystal looks like shes wearing oil. Last Edited By: stayzee 09/29/08 12:20 PM. Edited 1 times.
tsarevna	Friday 5 second commerial	#51	[-]
Posts: 59 (09/29/08 01:42 PM) Registered user More Recent Posts	After a weekend away from home I was checking the hard drive for suvivor commerials when I came across a little 5 second one with a voice over saying "a fan favorite returns.." and then a clip of a blonde on the slip and slid. Are they saying the slip and slid is a fan favorite but I do not remember it from before. A fan who was a favorite from the most recent show is making an appearance or some other prior castaway is coming for a quick shot? I checked the evening shows for Sunday night and did not see any other mention of it. Did anyone else she anything like that?

Posts: 539 (09/30/08 02:22 AM) More Recent Posts	Just adding to the discussion: Here is a clearer image of the slip and slide challenge. It looks like Susie is all wet but ready to go again? At the end of the slide, you will see markers set out in the body of water? That is probably where they will be getting puzzle pieces from. You can see Sugar standing next to Bob and Paloma, both we know will be participating. You can make out Crystal's figure in the background, along with Susie (based on the bright pink shirt). That must mean a different pair is out there pulling for Fang.

Just above everyone looks wet. This looks like a softer landing area than Fiji, this could be fun. It's got a runway and then the alley to go down. I wonder if those aren't a series of bags with puzzle pieces, not markers, that are being recovered? Last Edited By: crocophile 09/30/08 02:34 AM. Edited 1 times.

Posts: 1473 (09/30/08 07:14 AM) Registered user More Recent Posts	One of the other boards (apologies, I can't remember) is speculating that the wooden tub-ish thing behind the folks waiting to slide contains water/oil/goo - something people are using to make themselves slick before they go. I like the spare challenge sets. If the plans had to be scaled back because of supply problems, I think it turned out to be a good thing. They don't look half-finished or skimpy, but they aren't over-elaborate for a supposed wilderness.
