Though show started off in usual fashion. Lots of whining about them getting yelled at all the time. And of course, lots of shots of them getting yelled at (the best part).
Meyer continued his mind games. But somehow, they portrayed him as a hero of sorts. He was playing the game ebtter than everyone else. They showed a lot of footage trying to put emphasis on the game aspect, rather than "making friends" and other Big Brother type crap.

They failed their mission because their leader, well, sucked big time. Hutak seemed almost afraid to give orders. And when she did, she seemed scared. it was a sad site. Their punishment was brutle as well. I thought for sure she may have recieved a few votes. But I guess she wasn't as weak as the show made her out to be.

But in the end, the injured Haar recieved 11 of the 14 votes. Of course she gets to pick someone to leave with her, which is the sweetest of revenge. She picked the amazingly annoying Pupo. This is what really made this episode better than the last. We finally got to see the new voting feature exploited. And boy oh boy, this sure would make Survivor interesting ;)

Next weeks previews seem to hint that Wolf may leave. If he does, expect Meyer to go with him.

Thats the one interesting aspect of the game. You WANT to vote out your friends. Because they won't take you with them once dismissed. If an enemy of yours gets the boot, then you will be chosen to leave as well.

Is it as good as Survivor? Hard to say at this point. Its definatly harder to predict who goes. Which leaves that elemnt of suprise. We'll see what happens next week.
