We Could Have Had a Real Season... |

Alex and Mookie had an opportunity tonight to completely change the dynamics of the game, but let the chance fly away. After they found Yau-Man's idol, when they were caught discussing it, they should have went to Stacey and Cassandra and tried to make a deal. Tell them about the idol and why hadn't they been told, I'm sure Earl and Boo knew about it, etc, etc. Then point out to the girls where their ranking was in the alliance, and how much better they would be with Alex and Mookie. If they could get the girls, then they could go to Dreamz and probably convince him of the same things.

It's not Stacy and Cassandra would've agreed anyway...
Cassandra is pretty dumb seriously. |

Ha! Cassandra is playing a great game. Like who she chose for her reward. Great strategy.
Now if she could just get rid of Earl. |

Dear people who seem to think you can steal the idol,
You can't. Survivors have said so on Survivor Live. Jeff has said so in interviews. For one person to get an idol that they did not dig up, it must be transferred willingly by the original owner and the producers must document the transfer before tribal council. Please stop saying OMGZ JUST STEAL IT!!!1! or anything that resembles that. Thanks in advance. -Your humble servant |

I never thought Alex was smart, I kind of thought that he was a douche. At least Stacy was smart, she won immunity, the first girl to win since Danielle from Exile Island.
I just thought of it when I was having lunch, it has been a long while a female has won the immunity necklace around her neck. Prior to Danielle, was Danni. |

The fact that the last 2 ICs and the F9 RC have been sort of gender-neutral gives me hope for future postmerge seasons.

Quote: The rules of transferring have been made quite clear. But are they allowed to take the idol and hide it so the person holding it can't use it? I assume not since Alex and Mookie didn't do that. |

Hiding it = stealing it
same thing no? |

Quote: Not necessarily. Stealing means taking the HII so that you can use it at TC for yourself while hiding just means the owner would not have it at TC to use (for whatever that's worth as this situation has not come up yet). |

Re: We Could Have Had a Real Season... | ||

If anything is taken without the knowledge of the owner it is stealing. What you do with it after doesn't mean anything!

Quote:No. Taking the HII from Yau's possession constitues stealing it, regardless of what is done with the HII after it has been taken. Alex/Mookie could choose to hide the HII, use it themselves, chop it up, or place it in the sand and lament the dead turtle while singing songs to a constipated Bruce, but no matter what they do with it once they take it, they've already taken it. Stealing the HII to hide it is just as prohibited as stealing the HII to use it. |

Re: We Could Have Had a Real Season... | ||

It's true that you have to steal the HII before you can hide it so my earlier post was wrong, but that does not mean that "stealing it = hiding it" either. The first action is how you get the HII while the second is what you do with it afterwards. This is a pointless discussion anyway since there is a rule against stealing the HII.

Quote:And there, my friends, is where Cassandra is going to screw up. If she were smart about it (something Earl most definitely is), she would see a coalition of the wretched as her best opportunity. Alex is basically begging for his game life. His back is against the wall, he knows it and Jeff knows it, but Cassandra is likely to look at him and register: INTERLOPER. The Internet went wild? In a pig's eye it did. |
