Yep, however, if you ping everybody the instant the winner is announced, (like I was stupid enough to do a few seasons back) be prepared for the wrath of all the west coasters to ascend upon you!
I'm STILL making my mea culpas to them. :~(
Won't have to worry about that from me - hee! I'm a West Coaster who hits "Sucks" the minute I get home from work. Actually I didn't use spoilers in Survivor 1, but the winner was up on the AOL news site so I accidentally found out when I got home and checked my e-mail. Since then, I've enjoyed spoilers because I get to gloat and laugh over the remarks the potential "bootee" makes during the course of the show (usually about how they are "controlling" the game). My Survivor "purist" friends say it ruins the show!
