I guess if you wanted to include Jonathan and Wanda then yes, Palau was another season that started out with 20.

I look at it as Jonathan and Wanda never really got to play the game, never actually "got voted out" and therefore were never really part of the season.

I all reality, the game didn't start until the tribes were split into 2 tribes of 9 each.

But "technically" you are correct.

I'm with you, cuz! It seemed stupid at the time - yeah, let's get all those people out there and send 'em right back. All I can remember is Wanda standing up and singing, fists clenched, as they rowed toward land. I've tried bleach, but the image remains in my brain.

I swear, that watercraft entrance is second only to what's-her-name arriving on the "barge" like Cleopatra at Marquessas (at least I THINK it was Marquessas).

I'm starting to think I have no life.
