:lol:  The traditional beach site with water n' trees was stuck in my mind until now!  These are the first pics I've seen of the African site, so it seems strange. 

note to self:  Rudy get used to it.

"Spoilers/Speculation"




I have been snooping around every site for a small dose of spoilers and although I really like Gillian, The Immunity Idol has been spotted at the Kota Camp next to Bob and Sugar. Fang goes to Tribal Council. There is a Ball Rolling challenge in Episode 2 possibly Reward which shows Kelly of Kota Tribe and Randy, GC and Dan of Fang Tribe. Leaving Susie, Gillian, Crystal, Ken, Michelle and Matty in the Dark. At Sucks, SFever has brought out a clue for this season as they always do. The Clue for Ep. 1 says The "S" Files. Someone overthere found out that the main character on the X Files is called Gillian. Although this is mostly spec and though I am hoping it is all codswallop. I am leaning toward Gillian being sent home 1st, which in my opinion is very sad!!

Yeah puddin, thanks for the pic.  Now, I wonder if Bob or the gal (Jessica i think) knows it's right there?  Seems I read somewhere the II (s) would or could be hidden at camp?  Or am I full of it?  ;)

You bet, Kiwi. It's very sad, if the main reason is cuz she's the Old lady.  Hope that's not the reason IF she's the first boot. 
I've read others who are speculated as leaving early in the game, but dunno how early.

Well as of right now I see no spoilers for the 2 hour opener.. 2 boots/ 2 TC's, Kota wins first immunity and rice and 2 Iindividual Immunity necklaces are up for grabs in the first IC.


You can see what other sites are thinking:

messhall

survivorskills

survivorfever

Blows/RTVW

and time will tell if ACME is still making weekly predictions.

But if you want to stay unspoiled, I wouldn't want to spoil it for ya. lol (no pun!)

Seriously, I've visited most of the spoiler sites & it seems they really aren't too enthused this season.  Well it actually started before this season...losing interest.  At least that's the impression I got.

Thanks puddin.  Guess we'll just have to play it by ear.

I was hoping to play Lancers Extreme Pool, but heck, have no clue how to choose intelligently with no boot list.  I might play it anyway, and just let the chips fall where they may!
