FWIW, I dislike the voting being on the final three. The biggest decision a person can make is to win the final challenge and decide whom to take to the finals with you. Now that aspect of the game is gone.
I’m sure that came as a shock the first time they threw it out there.
I was talking to Survivor fan here at work and she espoused an interesting theory, and I’d like to throw it out there and ask fellow Survivor FRans what they think. She believes that Jonathan and Cirie actually are in an alliance and are staging all these fights to throw people off the scent; that they did want to get Yau-Man out (popularity factor) but had to play it cool. She also thinks Jonathan/Cirie have Parvati in the alliance as well.
It would certainly be the smart move - get what is quite probably the most popular Survivor ever (and who the “Fans” on the jury might vote for) and have him think the other side (i.e., couples alliance) did it. Yau doesn’t make the jury so he can’t ask either of them about it and the secret doesn’t come out until everyone’s munching popcorn and watching at home.
Convoluted, sure, but maybe Burnett would like to keep us guessing this time. I don’t know about you, but sooo many of the boots last year were telegraphed before TC that I ended up fast fowarding till the vote.
