"Challenge Analysis/Speculation"
We don't have much to go on, but I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread on this.
On the SF spoiler page there is a picture from the Globe tabloid that SF feels is a water platform challenge. I tried to post the pic, but couldn't so here is the link:

I think we've already seen these platforms on E1. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure these things had fires on them when the tribes were crossing the river for the fire challenge.

We also have these pics: (courtesy of ellipsiiis & paratrooper)

Jerri with immunity idol.

Keith and Liz watching and being cold.

The fact they are just watching may mean that they're already out of the running and waiting for the others to finish. The fact that they're cold may mean nothing. I checked the weather tracker and it's going to be nasty this episode.

We also have the S1 challenge list to use as a reference. Here's ferretkiss' S1 challenge sheet.

Here's where the speculation part comes in. We know that EPM keeps some of the key challenges the same, such as E1 & E6. I think E7 is another key challenge that EPM will keep. (or at least keep similar)

I remember the underwater challenge in S1, and I was thinking the whole time how unfair it was to the female contestants because men naturally have a larger lung capacity than the women. Well, duh, that's what EPM wants. Immediately after the merge the number 1 targets are the alpha males and this is his way of giving them a chance to remain in the game.

Using this reasoning, I don't think the challenge will be any kind of finesse contest and the major players will be Nick, Colby and Alicia.

Thanks to all the folks whose links and photos were included in this post.

LAST EDITED ON 03-04-01 AT 06:36 PM (EST)

The CBS website refers to the first individual immunity challenge (IIC) as "the biggest test of endurance yet" The pictures show the 10 members of the merged tribe walking to the IIC. Same clothes on Keith and Liz as in the close-up of the standing cold and dejected after they are apparently out of the running. Liz's hair also looks like it was wet and she dried it after her failed attempt. So what have we got...

Can we assume...?

1st IIC is a test of endurance.("biggest yet" so probably more than just holding your breath under water -- only a minute or two).

IIC takes place in, on, or near the water.(Picture of J. Probst standing by the water apparently explaining the rules.)

IIC may have to do with the "water platform" we've seen pictured at Survivorfever.

Keith and Liz probably do not win.

Roger probably does not win because he is older and a poor swimmer.( Treading water, etc puts him at a disadvantage)

The fittest and best swimmers have an advantage.(Nick, Colby, Tina, Alicia)

Anything else?....

If the challenge involves swimming, I think Amber would have to be included as a potential winner as she has worked as a lifeguard and is apparently a very good swimmer.

The picture of Keith and Liz looks to me as though it is during the challenge. Why the large space between the two? Also, they don't appear to be watching others still competing. Perhaps they are standing on blocks of ice and are still in the competition.

I know this is a wild stab but I don't think we can write Keith and Liz off as not winning based solely on this photo).

I think this IC will be similar to the one in S1 where the survivors had to stand on a log and the last one standing wins immunity.

endurance \En*dur"ance\, n. 1. A state or quality of lasting or duration; lastingness; continuance.

What better test of endurance then making them stand on a log or stump. The photo of Keith and Liz could very possibily be them standing on the stump or log waiting for everyone (or eachother) to fall off.
