PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
It would have been the subject of discussion at the production meeting, at least. If there was a second idol, I believe there are viable alternate locations somewhere along the path from the raft to the final flame stand that would have prevented one clue from being, in essence, the clue to both idols. I think the cons would have won the day, and that consensus would have come down against that being a possibility. It would have been kinda hard to explain and justify.
But the pro side of the discussion would have been just as you said. I would welcome that as a possibility, dam the critics.
But I'm also thinking that since the idol was probably hidden just before the competition began, and since there was only one clue found by one tribe, that there might have been only one idol to be found.
I know what will pop up in your mind, that that would rule out the possibility of the other team stumbling upon the idol without a clue, which would in a way compromise fairness. A definite consideration.
