Survivor - Guatemala: The Official Thread
Various Websites and my fertile brain | August 11, 2005 | Cuz_it_aint_their_money

Hidden deep in the rainforests of Central America, stand the ruins of an ancient civilization that once prospered, and then vanished. These were the Maya people, and this is the country of Guatemala.

These stunning cities of the past stand as clues to a mystery thousands of years old. While Europe was in the dark ages, it was the Maya who harnessed the knowledge of the stars, and the celestial movements, to create a mystical union of man, nature and the gods. It was a world of great kings, elaborate ceremonies, fierce battles, and even human sacrifice.

18 Survivors will be marooned within this mysterious and rugged terrain.

For the first time, the castaways will actually live within the ruins of a vanished civilization, and they will be forced to embrace the ancient Maya lifestyle.

Join us as the adventure continues with:

I think they came up with that challenge on that season precisely because they were basically starving these people really seriously.

Survivor Australia and Survivor Africa both had reward "challenges" where the remaining survivors could buy a little nourishment. They definitely starved them during Australia, and Africa is a little better. The Australia folks had to trade their tarps for more food because they were completely out with more than a week to go.

The fish don't look much more appetizing than the bugs.

They did warm 'em over a fire, I think. Lydia caught them, which is why I'd keep her around awhile. :-) Hopefully she can graduate to larger versions and you can cook 'em.
