I think it's a good twist, but it would be better in a 20 person season.

You see, now I'm thinking it was only there for the first visit on Exile. Would Erinn seriously NOT choose to go, knowing she's going home
next???

On Timbira, Brendan has been talked about as a possible boot option, so she would have some chance at survival. I think the only way this twist could succeed is if every reward and immunity challenge was combined like in episode 2. People would be flipping left and right if they'd become immune. |

I don't know why they even mentioned it. The twist would have been epic if it had worked out, but the odds of two people both going to exile and being
willing to become outsider on another tribe was always slim.

Since it failed this season, I'm sure they'll keep using it over and over until it causes the BIGGEST BLINDSIDE EVAAAHH when someone finally switches.

Yeah, I think they would have to do that thing of having more than two tribes, so when they get to two tribes someone que mutiny back Candice Stye.

I think it has potential. Nobody needed it this season since both sides in the Exile Alliance were in comfortable positions and didn't need to jump just to
alienate their old tribemates. Joe and Erinn thought they had the idols and felt they were safe.
Wasn't a good fit this season, but if they bring back the two people on Exile twist I wouldn't mind seeing the mutiny twist again. Of course, Exile Island itself is getting played out. |

I don't see how it would ever work unless a swap already happened. Your new tribe would be just as likely to use you as the easy boot choice next.
