"Hidden Votes"
Did you notice that once Janet had sufficient votes to get snuffed, Jiffy stopped reading votes and said something like "and the remaining vote will not be shown." Makes me wonder if previous votes will count against players in tie-break situations again.

1. "RE: Hidden Votes"
They always do that. Once enough votes are cast against one person and they mathmatically cannot be beaten, Jiffy stops reading the votes. We always see the breakdown, but this allows the other players to have to guess, or find out from the others who voted what way.

Nothing new.

Yep. I just can't recall him saying specifically the remaining votes will remain hidden. It just set something off in my head. Almost like foreshadowing I guess. Dunno....

Make me think it will still be the purple rock deal if they do not need to know how many were against each player.

He usually says "no need to read the last vote" or what he said last night "we'll let the last vote remain a mystery".


--thinks Jiffy spends his free time thinking of new ways to say "I'll go tally the votes"

5. "RE: Hidden Votes"
Theoretically, if previous votes are going to count in a tie-break situation, all of the votes should be revealed at every Tribal Council.

Now they could keep this information hidden, and at a tie, Jiffy could just say, "Sorry, so-and-so, you have 3 previous votes, you lose." He couldn't exactly lie, because all of the votes at every TC are captured on camera. But it would seem anti-climactic for the audience, I think.

True, what remember when Jeff tied with Colby in S2. Jiffy asked them how many previous votes they had. Jeff said...

One, that I know of and Colby said none.

So they still had the previous votes count, yet Jeff was never sure he did not have more than 1.

However, that said, I still don't think previous votes will count. Its over, IMO. They will do something else.

7. "RE: Hidden Votes"
I agree, the prior vote rule is a thing of the past.

I never figured out why Jiffy didn't show Kimmi's vote for Jeff, because at every other TC in S2, Jiffy DID reveal all of the votes.

The only thing I could think of at the time was that, after Kimmi blabbed to Tina about Debb's vote, MB wanted to make absolutely certain that none of the Kuchas could repeat that mistake.
