The problem there was not following through with throwing the second one.

There was some season 1 level voting going on tonight.

You poor fuck.

:-( I swear I'm not a dunce. I was trying to convince myself that John would be smart enough to at least play the idol. I guess I was a little too optimistic.

That buff color analysis was a perfect example of misusing stats. It's completely random and meaningless.

At least that would be something? Josh then becomes America's new sweetheart, until he returns with Wes and becomes an egomaniacal tyrant?

You have seen the players on this season, right?

Better safe than sorry, and it doesn't really hurt Josh either way which ever one goes home.

100% So what do they have to give up? Forfeit the challenge? Give up their remaining food?

Because then Baylor flips out if he has an idol and he's voting for her.

I bet Baylor wasn't told that he might have an idol as well, seeing as if he did it would have been her going home.

We have seen a lot of screen time of her, and there was that clip today of Missy telling her "you have to play your own game"…

I'm not saying they don't edit things out of order. I'm saying I would think they might show us someone finding it just to keep that side of the island interesting.

You figure they'd show us if someone found it, just to show us something about that camp.

So unpleasant all the way around. Our worst fears about this season are coming to pass. I agree with Carrie, if they can't make John Rocker getting blindsided fun, we have a problem.

Julie has been getting a lot of screen time for seemingly inconsequential moments. I'd be surprised to see her go home so early.

What could Probst due as further punishment? Take all their food? Make them go to tribal council?

Yup, the precedent has now been set.

Yikes. My first choice was indeed poor, but I really got screwed by having the first overall pick, which doesn't really have the advantage it does in a typical sports draft.

I'm going with the Amanda lie. "Parv, I want to protect you! You NEED TO PLAY YOUR IDOL ON YOURSELF"
