No it wasn't. It was to be played the same way as this year, before the votes were read.

Nah

Definitely wrong there mate. Exile and Cook were both 'after the vote' idols. Fiji was the first one that got played before the votes were read but after the votes were cast. (Fiji, China & Micronesia were the same). Guatemala was before the votes were cast - which was even more powerless.

Editted: Whoops - thanks Croc - didn't read your post until after I posted. Yeah I know my stuff with idols.
