"Possible twist I haven't seen discussed"
What if they steal an idea from Boot camp - whoever gets booted out gets to take someone with them?

I don't think it's possible for Survivor to lose more than one player per episode and still come in with the 13 (plus a filler) episodes it's supposed to.

2. "RE: Possible twist I haven't seen discussed"
The problem with that twist is that it would violate the one rule of Survivor that I believe they must keep--ONE person is voted off every three days. Other than that, pretty much everything other "rule" is up for grabs. But that rule I believe must remain. "Taking someone with" would mess up the entire TV schedule because you would lose an episode (or more if the rule remained for future TCs).

I agree that taking out 2 at once is just not on. But how about this: the person booted designates the next person to have immunity.

5. "RE: How about stealing from BB?"
I like that even better. I couldn't come to terms with losing so many people in my original idea, but I haven't liked any of the other scenarios either.

It fits with the TWIST and it fits with changing who you are loyal to and who you vote for. It solves the problems associated with 3 teams and with splitting up the rewards.

But, still a problem of course is why would the first 15 minutes be so important? And, what happens if your tribe doesn't come back to TC before the merge? What advantage does that give you to be the one with Immunity?

No, the person booted is the person booted period. Allowing anyone to designate immunity from one episode to the next would eliminate all the Immunity Challenges, not gonna happen.

Next thing we'll be hearing about is bringing people back from Loser Island.

They could have two people with immunity, one being nominated by the prior bootee, and another being the winner of the challenge. This would really change the dynamics of the game. There are several twists that could be done to make it interesting. Do they let the person know they have immunity before the competition? If they know, can they choose whether they want to compete to prevent someone else from getting immunity?

However, I don't think EPM would do something this drastic this season, and I don't think that this is the "twist" this season. I would expect to be told about this rule at tribal council the week that the first individual IC occurs.

YIKES! Goddess forbid!

Well, one thing I think we can be absolutely certain of, MB isn't going to swipe ideas from other shows (except official variations of "Survivor" possibly), that's the job of other shows to do to him.

Buggy hit the nail on the head here.

But if you really want some fun, Shakes would pop a few blood vessels if he visited TAR board.
