"I doubt he knows as much about knot tying as he claims."

You're over thinking it. He spent the two years trying to untie that knot. CPO told him he would get promoted as soon as he figured it out. When he mustered out he still hadn't figured it out and believed it was impossible. Nobody on ship told him that the knot was a simple square knot and the reason it got tighter was because the ends were tied to anchors.

Pretty much explains everything.

Greetings fellow Survivor junkies! Its time once again for your weekly:

SURVIVOR PING!

According to a compilation of the official SeeBS Website, the promo vidcaps for episode 7 and the various spoiler websites, the following is what we can expect to see tonight.

Tonight’s episode is titled: “ The Great White Shark Hunter”

Two Survivors battle to provide for their tribe. One brings home a clam; one brings home a shark. The promos show us Tom is “The Great White Shark Hunter.”

Sitting out a Challenge, one Survivor finds it hard to watch from the sidelines and doubts the tribe's ability to win. From watching Coby’s pessimistic rantings during last weeks Immunity Challenge, I’d say that he continues this week.

A tribe member is suspicious of a potential alliance forming between two very friendly tribemates that could spoil a game plan. Again, from the promos, it appears as if Gregg and Jenn’s canoodling has escalated to a new lever and both Coby and Tom are questioning their alliance plans.

During a crucial Immunity challenge, one Survivor takes over for a struggling tribemate. Will it be enough to win? The promos don’t give us much to go on here, so any guess would be a wild shot in the dark.

One thing I’d like to point out: Simple math tells us that Survivor is going to have to change their rule about not sitting out back to back challenges. Since Ulong is down to 3 players to Koror’s 8, Koror is going to have to sit out 5 players at each of tonight’s challenges. Which means that two of Koror’s players are going to be sitting out back to back challenges. It’s going to be interesting to see how this is handled.

The promos don’t show us much as far as challenges other than a great screen shot of 3 very dejected Ulongs sitting with their heads in their hands and their tribal flag carelessly tossed aside.

Well, enough of my flappin’ my gums, its time for:

Cuz’s Weekly Survivor Picks!

Reward Challenge winner – Koror
Immunity Challenge winner - Koror
Bootee(s) - Ibrehem

Take care,

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming....
Wow, what a ride!"

Freepmail me if you want added to or removed from the Survivor Ping List!
