of letting the winning PMs not get fired the following week. Did any PM from Apprentice 1 won and get fired the following week?

how do u all think it will play out, as far as ppl volunteering more to be PM?

I missed the first 30 minutes - is that policy going to be for every task, or just the first one?

If it's for every task, maybe they are trying to prevent people from dodging leadership postions like some tried last year.

Every task until Donald says otherwise, just like everything else on the show. Figure it to last at least until the first big reshuffle.

I was having a hard time understanding the reason for the rule - that's probably it.

I think it changes the strategical perspective considerably -- imagine what these people can do with a free pass.

Kwame.

I think the main element to this new twist will be sabotage: do you undermine your team the week after your PM stint, knowing you can't be fired and you're guaranteed to pick off one competitor? Are you smart enough to look at the long-term problems involved in this sort of trick?

Or: are you smart enough to do it and never get caught?

AHA! I knew your inventive mind would be able to discern the devious motive. This is going to be GOOD!

I think it will encourage these candidates to step up and risk more and not fly UTR like Bill did last year. Looking back, Bill was the last guy to PM a challenge (though to his credit I think he gave every task 100% which may be why Trump had him go against Kwame for the final challenge).

I'd like to think that if this rule was in place last year, Bill would have stepped up sooner, and maybe Amy would have PM'd more challenges also (she went UTR after she saw that PMs Jason and Sam got fired).

Kwame wasn't PM in the second-last challenge. It was Troy.
