The compete or eat ones I don't like. And I'm thankful there's no dictators like Coach or Boston Rob running the tribe. Let the Survivors make up their own minds. Either way Tarzan is eating. Any of the ones who didn't win the 7UP reward are likely candidates too - prob. Alicia and Kat.

Based on the wording, I think you actually hit the nail on the head. If the temptation is sweet for those vying for individual immunity, shouldn't they already be competing? I'd wager it'll be the suspended bucket challenge, or an equivalent.

The CBS staff that builds the challenges are always disappointed when they have to build a challenge for say 10 people and only 4 compete. Probst has agreed it's a shame they went to all that work and nothing came off it. We saw this happen last season when only Jim, Dawn, and Whitney did a challenge and Coach's crew stuffed their faces with donuts. The season before only Phillip and Steve sat out. But make it a temptation to step down and it just works better.

It also identifies which members of the dominant alliance are going to step up and sacrifice to make sure that the big target doesn't win safety. In Guatemala, I think it was Judd who stepped up, but resented it? Last season, Upolu basically said they didn't care which Savai'i won immunity. In 22, most of Rob's group stepped up, all but Philip, but then Zapatera had some strong people in the group and I think Rob wanted control over who went. In any case, it's a very quick decision they have to make, and it tells a lot about the dynamics. Dropping out one by one is much more individual, and it's more about wearing people down and seeing who can tough it out, who has the will to tough it out, who thinks they can win. Who stays in it just long enough for the good food to appear. It is almost like the auction; if they wait too long, the temptations may stop or be less good, or they could get better as it goes along. How to read Jeff is the trick. This challenge tends to strip away the team aspect. In both versions, there is still typically some strong person that one alliance doesn't want to win it, and once that person is finally out (IF), the rest can negotiate the outcome. The most dangerous position is to come in second and drive it home to people what a threat you are and how tough.

And Jeff Tempts them with food in the middle of the Challenge. It also shows Christina dropping out of the challenge if you look closely.

Posts: 1122 04/06/12 02:57 PM More Recent Posts	okay so at this vidcap you can see that 3 Of The Buckets have been already dropped (Red, Blue and Green) So that means 7 people are left in the Challenge and 3 have already dropped out. And Thanks to my very good Eyesight i have found out who the 7 people still left standing Are: Light Blue Bucket: Jay Red Bucket: Kat Black Bucket: Alicia Yellow Bucket: Kim Orange Bucket: Chelsea Purple Bucket: Troyzan Light Blue Bucket (the one at the far Left): Lief So that means TARZAN, CHRISTINA and SABRINA are the First 3 People out of the Challenge.

Sorta make sense that it would take some arm twisting to convince Kim to drop Kat (as in it ain't happening). Jay looks so over-matched in his attempt with Kim. Look for a more logical boot.

He may have to talked Kat at some point, but this was clearly strategy also look how confident Troy looks here....Like he's won IC and can consider some type of play with the Hidden Idol. Should be right up his alley esp with a weakened field. Last Edited By: crocophile 04/06/12 03:24 PM. Edited 2 times.

He did talk to Kat at some point during the 3 days. Kat is next to Jay in the Challenge order and within his field of view, and she looks to be dropping out. Seems logical it might be her.

She clearly doesn't feel completely safe. I'm hoping that she'll stay in this bucket challenge and possibly win. On the other hand, I could see her being this week's boot, too.

I'm not sure if his comment during the challenge is really a threat, or more encouragement. He sounds fairly low key and good humored. I don't think we've really seen Jay and Kat interacting around camp, though, have we? No reason to think he has a particular relationship with her. The Jay/Kim "lost pup" vidcap is him saying next four votes are coming your way, right? In context, that one did sound more like a threat. (I don't think he looks wet, but if he does, it could just be a rain storm, not necessarily challenge sweat or colored water.)
