PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"A more plausible twist" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-03-01 AT 02:26 PM (EST)See added final para.
The merge happens next week, but the tribes continue to exist, separately but under the same roof. Rewards are individual. ICs and tribal councils are done as before, i.e., S vs B. Reasons? Sambuca's food is united with Boring's water - a good deal for both. People get to know one another for an extra two episodes, giving a chance for new alliances to build before going to individual instead of team immunity. This addresses the game's weakness of having strong tribe loyalties going into the merge by providing a transition, and it is a far less radical change than the other theories. Further clarification: This scenario does not require any change to the rules. I doubt very much that there is any rule saying that the tribes must stay incommunicado. In fact, we know that they talk during the challenges. So all that MB needs to do is make both teams move to new camps, which are located side by side. Then things happen naturally. The water/food swap is obvious. They would probably also decide to actually move to a single camp so that only two lookouts are necessary instead of four. The rewards could still be by team (only 2 to go anyway). The point is to establish communication to undercut tribal loyalties and alliances.

If the 'twist' is a merge at 12, it must include a full merge where immunity and reward challenges are individual.

Just a thought. I was just over looking at the vidcaps and noticed the post about Kelly's new necklace...which mysteriously resembles the mallbrat jewelry. This idea of yours could also explain that. The food court four may recruit Kelly to be a "friend" of their alliance, if you will. BUT, the only thing I see wrong with this theory is that if Boran lost an IC they would boot her out first because of her seemingly new alliance. Also, I think that living together at the same location would only strengthen current alliances and friendships, not break them down. Plus I don't think everyone would be so pissed about moving. Big deal. In comparison to having to split up your tribe, moving to a new location seems like cake.
