The downside of shaking them up too often is that it means that there's almost no reason to not just vote off the strongest guys/challenge studs early on, and you wind up with a tribe full of Sandras when the merge occurs.Disagree.. I've beenfor years that they need to Shuffle tribes every 6 days... Alliances get messed up and Real Game play comes into effect.
When you allow them to stay as one for a a couple of weeks, even a shuffle at that time is "too late". if the Alliance survives to the merge they regroup up.
Shaking them up early and often doesn't allow strong alliance's to form and will make the show more interesting ..

WRONG! Jk. I see what you are saying. I've always been of them opinion to keep the tribes but offer opportunities to get cross alliances going. Dual exile island, stuff like that.snogger said:Disagree.. I've been

I'm just saying personally...I like him and Ozzy.simey said:Why? I'm not anti-Caleb, I'm just wondering why he deserves a long run. He only lasted 9 days the last time he was on Survivor due to his unfortunate medical emergency. I didn't think he had done anything that game changing up to that point. The thing that sticks out the most to me about his time on Survivor was him passing out from the heat, and Tai's crush on him.His time on Big Brother as "Beast-Mode Cowboy" shouldn't matter in this game, but my guess is it does to the producers, which is why they brought him back. I think Survivor "Second Chances" seemed more appropriate title wise for his return than "Game Changers."
Probably because they compete hard.
Caleb completely exhausted himself competing...I can respect that.
Someone like Sandra...I cannot.

Sandra uses more facial muscles than any contestant out there by frowning and running her mouth.

Only if they know there is going to be a shake up early and often.. keep them guessing.. I'd love to see a season where the Tribes are shuffled at the first TC.. Have everyone wondering on how much to share and align with others.. Then wait 6 days.. or maybe as a Complete WTF.... have a shuffle at and right BEFORE the Immunity challenge...nysfl2 said:The downside of shaking them up too often is that it means that there's almost no reason to not just vote off the strongest guys/challenge studs early on, and you wind up with a tribe full of Sandras when the merge occurs.snogger said:Disagree..

yea I bet they don't if they are already making it look like they do. I hope they do, just to see the uproar from all the PETA type people.
to Caleb as far as alliances go... but won't help if you don't have numbers at the merge.

Such a dumb move voting off Caleb so early with so many in the tribe so weak in challenges. They'll be back in TC again next week. Classy dude because if I was in his shoes I'd have let them know that on the way out.
The players think they are playing "smart" by voting out the "merge threats". But you don't do that this early. You pick off the weaklings first. Sigh.

I think the kicker was Brad making the point that Tai would have a target with caleb in the game at all times. At that point Tai gave up pushing.

Never thought they were going to eat the goats, especially with chickens walking around and Tai on the other tribe.
Culpepper is so boring. As is Trojan. I thought Caleb was a nice enough guy, but I do like looking at Hali so glad she's still around a little while longer.
Still amazes me that they are letting Sandra run the show.

Guys, come on, it's all about the editing. Yes I totally agree Sandra is a total Beech. I don't see her lasting much longer. At worse I see her going after they merge as one and start the individual immunity challenges.
I didn't understand the logic of JT and leaving his new tribe out on the water as he looks for an idol. Yeah sure he needs to find it but it was too obvious.
As for the chickens and goats, why go after the goats when you have the chickens and no Tai?? Worse case, fatten up the baby goat for later.

I don't think I could eat those goats. I know its lame but the baby is too damn cute and obviously killing the mom effectively kills the baby.
Those chickens would be in my belly ASAP though.
Imagine if you kill that poor defenseless baby goat and then the next day you win a cheeseburger in a food challenge (which happen very often nowadays on survivor)

Or better yet don't even tell the tribes there is a redemption island until the player from there rejoins.

Is it Culpeper that keeps decorating his camps with a giant pair of balls? What a tool that guy is.

Pretty sure Sandra would eat her own young. No way I could have killed the momma and baby goat. Has to be plenty to eat in the ocean.

I think if Culpepper had pushed harder, he could have gotten Debbie voted out, which would have been the better play. Culpepper was in the majority alliance in his new tribe, 4-2. He was worried about Debbie, Tai, and Caleb working together because of their past relationship. He wants to keep the tribe strong so they don't have to go to tribal. He wants to keep other physical targets in the game so he can fly under the radar.
Voting out Debbie:
1) He is still in the majority alliance 3-2
2) He takes out one of the trio of Debbie, Tai, and Caleb so they don't have a majority in his tribe
3) The tribe is definitely stronger at a challenge with Caleb rather than Debbie
4) Caleb is definitely a better target in the game for other people to go after rather than Debbie.
Bonus: Debbie is definitely more annoying than Caleb. Life at camp would be better.

Seriously. I was looking at that remaining group at the end thinking "how in the hell will they win a challenge?"

The tribe already came in last with Caleb. So unless the next challenge is the one where one team member has to hold up a net full of coconuts they were already screwed.
