LAST EDITED ON 03-12-04 AT 01:36 PM (EST)Could be nothing, could be something. Don't you find it a little strange though that Rupert is up and MM's are there behind him? Also, does his buff in the accuracy challenges look (at least to me) not red?
Either, as BR stated, merger and individual (though as mentioned usually there IS only one challenge and it is my understanding in all the stuff that has been written the merge even)
or is it possible that Rupert, the ambassador perhaps, stays with MM and is on their tribe and competes with them for the night he stays? I'm only wondering because he did do this for the reward challenge in S7 and his buff color in the second picture does not really appear red either (though we all know what good camera work can do) If Rupert goes there and competes in the RC, this could "set up" the riddle about Rob and Rupert and the "power play" yes?
ETA: IGN, I would have to say that is a good thing reading your mind
