Well, c'mon -- if he lasted more than two episodes you KNEW that this model/waiter was going to be singled out for his faith.The first Muslim survivor? I'm surprised/dismayed that they kept him in here so far. Of course, the biggest question is: was his faith already brought up before now, or is he milking it for extended life at camp? If it wasn't an "issue" before now, might is arise as an issue for the other Ulong members? Possible reactions: James -- that of redneck'ed disgust (flash back to his comments about a "hoh-mow-secks-y'ull" beating him at the challenge) Stephanie -- sympathetic; she's been painted (aside from Angie) as the only Ulong to really align with, as viewers Bobby Jon -- a mixture of confusion and admiration, though ultimately, we know that he'll have to turn on Ibe I leave out another possibility, that Ibe's faith is purely a machination of the MB machine in order to foreshadow James' boot (via his disgust of non-Christian faiths) in this episode. James seems the most obvious boot (after all, per Mersaydeez, Bobby Jon makes "7" ).

We can see that Koror has Ian, Janu, and Jen competing in the race into the water challenge.We see Gregg and Tom positioned behind the guns in the shooting challenge, and we see Caryn and Coby standing in the wings, and in one pic we see Gregg standing next to Coby. The Koror sit outs for this challenge must be Katie, Jenn, Ian and Janu. So therefore it must be Katie, Jenn, Ian, and Janu competing in the race to the water challenge.

LAST EDITED ON 03-18-05 AT 09:35 AM (EST)The story board has the "build it up-tear it down" as the IC for this week. I think that the RC is the "shoot and switch". For the "build it up", Perhaps the team mates have to race out into the water on Jiffy's go, and retrieve something out in the water, and then bring the pieces back to build something up on those crates, I don't know how the tear it down part fits in??? ETA: I think in the Shoot and Switch RC that survivors are shooting at their own flags...

I wonder if for the Build it up/Break it down challenge if there is a completed structure of some kind out in the water, that the survivors have to race too, then break down the structure in the water, bringing back the pieces to reconstruct it back on the beach....Just throwing ideas out here, I see that there is some kind of matching foundation structures for both of the teams in the vidcap above...

22. "Which Challenge is Which?" |
So, we've seen the vidcaps and we think we've identified the two challenges..."Shoot and Switch" and "Build it Up, Break it Down" The Story Board has "Shoot and Switch" as the RC, while the Speculation by TDT and the folks at SS Mess is the other way around. What do we think? Would Tom and Greg compete in the RC knowing they'd have to sit-out the IC? Would the shooters look that intense if they were just competing for Pringles after having Beef Stew the night before? Guess I agree with TDT at this point... Krautboy

LAST EDITED ON 03-18-05 AT 09:12 PM (EST)Tom, Gregg, and Coby, all competing in what is supposed to be the RC, leaving only Ian and three weak girls to compete in the IC.....but the VO clearly implies that the build it up/break it down is for IC.... Could the producers make it this way, trying everything in their power to have Ulong win an actual IC....could the producers be stacking the deck in favor of Solong? I just don't know about this.... The shots of Caryn at the Shoot and Switch challenge shows her physically praying....for her survivor life as she knows that she is low man/woman on the totem pole there...she knows if Koror goes to TC, she is toast. So, if I were a betting woman, I'd say that the IC is indeed the shoot and switch challenge. ETA:

28. "RE: Which Challenge is Which?" |
I can argue either one is RC/IC, but going by who sits out, may be misleading. To give Ulong "a chance" MB may manipulate the rule a little.One possible explanation for Tom/Gregg/Coby/Caryn doing RC would be MB forcing them to play 3 men and 1 woman. Essentially, Koror would be forced to decide which one man will compete in an IC they have not seen. It would be a toss-up for which of the three (G/I/T) should be "saved." Caryn would be the logical choice to compete in the RC, leaving the stronger women for the IC. The "Switch" in the title may be that you have to switch gunners on some "call."

26. "Match the Clothing?" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-18-05 AT 10:05 PM (EST)This picture: is being edited to suggest this is Ulong on their way to the IC. At least, clothing wise, it matches this: (although this could be a shot that is actually comparing the different faiths of the men on this tribe) When you look at the challenges, however, this picture, which immediately follows the walk, appears to be from a different day, as Stephanie isn't wearing her buff, and Bobby Jon is in a *very* different outfit: Compare that to the Shoot and Switch pics, which show Steph in a buff: and Bobby-Jon in the Jesus-outfit: I suppose it doesn't prove anything, except, of course, that these clips are beind edited at least somewhat out of sequence. ETA: Realized right after I posted this that the first picture actually has James in the forefront, but if you look at the bushes, there does appear to be a man in a beige skirt, and a beige top, or at least light skin... Still, I'm taking Stephanies outfit as definate proof of this being out of sequence.

Vidcaps are nice, but where can you watch the actual video of these Challenges we are looking at?Is their one place that has all the actual videos, so you don't have to go to a bunch of different sites, or do you have to search the net for all the Spoiler sites. Survivor Sucks Tribal has 1 promo, but it does not cover the challenges we are looking at. It seems VIDCAPS are more prodominant than the actual video's. 1) Any suggestions or Links available to take a person to the best and most up to date VIDEO'S? 2) Where can a person actually see these video's on TV. Or is the Web the only place.

Caryn praying.
Gregg immensely relieved.
BobbyJon praying
There is so much intensity in these pictures. My vote is for the shoot and switch challenge to be IC. It is possible they shoot one gun and then switch to another gun for their next shot.

32. "the "switch" of "shoot and switch"" |
I'm assuming that to win the shooting challenge, a tribe needs to shoot all their flags. Hence, if you miss, or shoot the other tribe's flag, it's bad. That seems to make enough sense.However, the real sticker here is the "switch" aspect of things. In the original storyboard, there was a proposed switch in conjunction with this challenge. If that would still be the case, and someone (or more than one person) does switch tribes, it probably means this would be the IC, as people are lined up in their currently existing tribes for the other challenge. Maybe the winning tribe gets to pick a member to switch with the other tribe, and gets to pick a member from the other tribe? That would be hard to do without a formal vote, I guess. Is there a temporary switch, a la Rupert? Maybe if you hit the other tribes flag when you shoot, you have to switch tribes (hence the praying and the relieved looking Gregg after not having to do this)... this wouldn't make sense either, as the 4 people not competing would be not be put in that danger. The option that makes the most sense seems to be that the "switch" has something to do with the challenge itself, like switching guns or something. None of these options seem right... maybe if a person misses, their tribemates flail them with a switch - that would certainly explain prayer and relieved looks! Okay, I'm out of ideas - anyone?

35. "Regarding the Build it Up/Break it down Challenge" |
The VO on the Survivor Ep 6 previews indicates that the Build it Up/Break it down challenge is the IC. Many are speculating how Koror could win this with three females and Ian. Well, I think that this challenge may involve racing out in the water to retrieve various items that are located out in the water. Participants retrieve the pieces and then return them to the marked off foundation area seen in front of the mats. Once all of the pieces are brought back to the area cordoned off, then the teams can assemble/build whatever this is. This could be a puzzle of some kind...2D or 3D. We all know that girls are better at solving puzzles than guys, right? So therefore, maybe having 3 girls on the Ulong team may indeed save them? Perhaps once whatever it is they are going to do in the cordoned off area is completed, they must open their trunks to find the final pieces of some puzzle. I am just speculating if a puzzle is involved, perhaps having 3 women on the team will create an advantage for the Koror tribe.

FlowerpowerI know I'm new, and the Promo indicates that the swimming/ build it up and break it down is the IC. But that can be mis-derection. Katie and Janu sat out the 1 and only challenge they had on episode #5. You can not sit out back to back challenges, which means the very next challenge Janu and Katie have to compete in. RC is always 1st so whatever Challenge we see Janu and Katie competing in has to be the RC. The Challenge we see those two in is the Swimming Challenge so that has to be the RC. Am I correct? Or am I missing something?

But that can be mis-derection. You bet it could indeed be misdirection! But, is it? I am in the camp that is leaning toward the swimming build it up/break it down challenge is the IC. You cannot sit out back to back challenges That is true, you cannot sit out back to back challenges with in the same episode....Once TC has occured, it's a new cycle/episode and so everyone is available to sit out the RC....but, if you sat out the RC, than you cannot sit out the IC...get it? If not, go here! There's an entire thread devoted to this very topic!

42. "RE: Regarding the Build it Up/Break it down Challenge" |
OK, still learning the ropes around here but I'm gonna throw in my two cents worth. Some of these come from watching the video preview (where most of the vidcaps come from) in full speed about 100 times, and some come from stopping it at various spots another 100 times.Regarding the discussion of whether JP is starting 2 separate teams because of the pics showing his left arm raised, and then his right arm raised in another. In the preview he is shown saying "GO" while simultaneously dropping his left arm and raising his right arm. It is all one action starting a single event. Why he does it like that I have no idea, but that's all it is. Before I forget this one, someplace I seen it mentioned that one of the pics showed Ibrehem holding a long pole, and the discussion was that this must be him in the "build it up" competition. I doubt it because after watching the preview so many times, he is doing something with the pole but whatever it is, he is in no hurry to get it done. It looks as though he could be stoking a fire, or some other task, but it certainly doesn't look as though he is in a competition at that time. Most likely a chore around the camp. Also watching the preview, I cannot see anything in Stephanies left hand while on their walk to a challenge. Her right hand is definitely empty and from everything I can tell, so is her other one. Maybe someone else with better eyes could study it and be able to tell better than myself. Now the one I am going to have trouble trying to explain coherently. Which challenge is which: Despite possibly spotting the Immunity Idol at the water challenge, (very fuzzy picture, not much proof) and all the other reasons given, I have to firmly believe that the water challenge is only the RC. There is just too much misdirection going on here. First there is Stephanies comment saying that "they HAVE to win, they just can't afford to lose anyone else". (or something very close to that) This is being heard as they are showing the players during the water challenge, apparently to give the impression that what we are seeing is a fight for immunity. Last week, we heard James telling his tribemates that if they want to win they cannot give up. For those previews, we heard that while they were showing the players during their challenge. It turned out however, that his comment was said back at camp long before they went to challenge. I would be willing to bet dollars to donuts that what Stephanie is saying is from her confessional that we will see BEFORE the challenge, and is merely being played at that point in the previews to create a certain impression. I also cannot imagine a scenerio where Koror would sit out their big guns (terrible pun intended for shoot and switch) during an IC. They have played a very smart game to this point and there is no reason to think they would have such impaired thinking now. I suppose it is possible that they feel they have such a commanding hold on the game, that losing ONE IC wouldn't hurt so that perhaps they could do away with a troublemaker, but the leadership on that team just seems too smart to start thinking like that. I am sure they know, understand, and fully plan to take each and every win they can since loses to their tribe will come soon enough. So as I said, I am having a great deal of difficulty trying to come up with a believable excuse for them to do something like that. I will continue to believe the shoot and switch is the IC, and if Wednesday night shows me differently, I am sending my television out for repair since something would HAVE to be wrong with the picture. I would really like to hear as many thoughts about these things as I can get so I can decide if I am thinking ok or if I am suffering from sleep deprivation.

Thanks for the info.I saw on another thread here, someone pointed out the Immunity Idol in the picture that has BJ running in the water. Looks about shoulder high behind BJ. Kind of blurry, but you can definately see what looks like eyes and the shape of the Immunity Idol. Goes along, and only re-affirms your analysis that the BIU and BID is the Immunity Challenge. So much for my theory about Janu and Katie sitting out the last challenge and making this the Reward Challenge. Sounded good for a few seconds any way. Ha Ha. Better Luck next time.

47. "Sitting out the Big Guns?" |
VG's logic, Bianca's source information, and the vidcap of what may be the II at the Water Challenge, make a strong case.The thing that had bothered me the most was why Koror would sit out Tom, Gregg, and Coby, while and "saving" Caryn for the IC by using her in the "Shoot and Switch" RC. The explanation could be as simple as Koror, controlled by Tom, Ian, Katie, Gregg and Jenn, not really caring that much about going to TC. They may really want the reward that JP describes to them and decide if they later lose the IC, Caryn goes home anyway. After which, they still have a significant advantage. Worst case, they get rid of a member of the opposition alliance who also slows them down in challenges...

49. "IC/RC" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-22-05 AT 01:05 AM (EST)Flowerpower, thanks for the info on the other sites, I hope I put the info to good use. I posted this on the other thread we had, but it looks like it goes with this thread also. I just watched the Video Promo at Mess Hall, the announcer is making it sound like the Immunity Challenge is the water challenge. Stephanie's hair is wet, and she is shaking her head ( no ) like in dis-belief. With the water in the background. Looks like the challenge is already over, and Jeff could be saying, ( Ulong, you idiots, I'll see you at Tribal Council again tonight. ) Another shot, show's James hanging his head down, but unsure what challenge he is at in the picture and BJ, is distraught and putting his head down at the shoot and switch challenge. Doesn't look good for Ulong on any of these challenges, with their expressions and body language. My bet is on Shoot and Switch being the RC with Kugor winning based on BJ's body language and the IC - BIU and BID with Kugor winning again, based on Stephanie's body and facial language. And of course the obvious spoiler we all have access to. Also, the competitors location at the time of the announcers description places the IC at the beach competition. The Shoot and Switch Challenge could also simply be, 1 person shoots for 1 tribe, then switches with a person from the other tribe, and so forth. The tribes each shoot until their own target are cut in half, 1st team to get all 8 targets cut in half, wins. On the Video Promo, it show's a target already being hit, and Tom shoots it again and tears it in half. Can't get much simpler than that. And no, the shoot and switch synopsis is not mine, I just looked at every site and every theory, and this was one of them I saw that makes the most sense, now that I watched the VIDEO PROMO. Sounds good enough to be resonable explanation of things to come this week. If I'm right, cool, if not, there's always next week.

50. "What if ..." |
The IC is not actually called "Build it up / Break it down".As a precedent I give you the "switch" of Shoot and Switch and By Any Means necessary. Storyboard spoiler says Shoot&Switch was "scheduled" for episode 3 RC. But CBS says the episode 3 RC was By Any Means. This week we get vid-cap confirmation on the "shoot" part of the Shoot&Switch RC. Which brings me to my ... what if? ... What if the IC is not Build it Up / Break it Down, but is "switched" with Sea Stars(which is storyboarded for episode 7). It would make a lot more sense for all the swimming that's going on. And could accomodate the new "potential" puzzle angle. 2 people swim out to puzzle pieces which the 2 back on the beach will assemble. Or something like that. All I'm really saying is ... The IC doesn't have to be the Build it Up / Break it Down. It could be SeaStars or even another one from the SideBoard of the StoryBoard. Sn'DCS©MMIV
