Yes, Yao Man found the first one (and buried a fake one - heehee) but who/when was the second one found?
See Post number 305 above. Particularly the second paragraph in the Recap titled "Mookie finds the idol."
Well, guess I slept through the find.
Hey, Cuz (and everybody else). Check this out.

What the hell is “Pirate Master”?
In Pirate Master: The Adventure Begins, 16 ordinary people living aboard a real pirate ship compete in an extraordinary Caribbean adventure in pursuit of hidden treasure - a bounty with a total value of one million dollars. Each week, one competitor is “set adrift” from the pirate ship that they have called home until only three remain in the hunt for the ultimate treasure of all.
With high seas, high adventure and high stakes, our 16 pirates will decipher an old treasure map that leads them to a mysterious island,” said Mark Burnett. “To recover the booty, they will have to work together - but are always aware that in the cutthroat world of pirates, nobody is ever safe. Pirate Master is the type of adventure reality competition that our company was built upon.”
Pirate Master will premier May 31st (exactly 7 years to the day since Survivor: Borneo premiered), and will air on Thursday nights at 8:00pm.
Take care,

A pirate walks into a bar and the bartender says:

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen! It’s Thursday morning and that means it’s time for your:
Since some of you have said that you don’t read my weekly picks because you don’t want the show spoiled, I am now “hiding” my picks.
If you still want to read the weekly picks then highlight the post starting at the arrows below:
--- -> The clues from the SeeBS website are as follows:
The hidden Immunity Idol stirs distrust among tribemates.
At the Reward, one Survivor works diligently to solidify an alliance.
One Survivor is caught strategizing with a member of another alliance. How will this double-dealing affect this Survivor's game?
A cat and mouse game plays out at one of the most dramatic Tribal Councils in SURVIVOR history, leaving one alliance shocked and the other gloating.
And from the online TVGuide:
The castaways compete for a reward that includes a feast and overnight stay on a yacht that is moored within sight of the losers back at camp.
The reward challenge appears to be a takeoff on the old “coconut chopping challenge”. The players are asked a series of questions about their fellow tribemates. Correct answers allow you to “take a swing” at your fellow tribemates, only in this case it’s busting what looks like a set of tiles set in uprights. Loose all your tiles and you’re out of the game. I know that Boo doesn’t seem to be the sharpest knife in the drawer but I think that he will surprise many by winning this challenge. Also, he gets to pick at least one other player to accompany him on the yacht and my guess is that he picks Earl. In an attempt to solidify his place in Earl’s alliance. Before the two head off for their luxury cruise, Boo sends Mookie off to Exile Island.
The Immunity Challenge appears to be the typical endurance test. The players have to stand on very tiny pegs in bare feet. The one to last the longest wins the Ugly necklace. Now here is where I get to show off my keen powers of observation. A vidcap shows Yau-Man wearing a very UGLY necklace, so I’m gonna risk my reputation here and say that Yau-Man wins the Immunity Challenge. Don’t try this at home boys and girls. I’m a highly trained professional.
Now a big point is being made regarding Alliances and “Double-Dealing” in this episode. So in order to clear things up, here is where I see the Alliances forming:
On one side we have Earl, Yau-Man, and Cassandra with Alex, Edgardo and Mookie on the other. Boo finds out that Alex and Edgardo had him pegged to go next, so he joins forces with Earl’s alliance. Stacy on the other hand, thinks that her original Motu alliance with Alex and Edgardo still holds. That leaves Dre playing everybody against one another. However, after a talk with Cassandra, she reminds him that Alex, Edgardo and Stacy treated him like dirt in the original Moto tribe, so he ends up siding with Earl’s alliance, more for Cassandra’s sake but with Earl’s alliance nonetheless. Therefore, by tonight’s tribal council, I expect there will only be two alliances. Earl, Yau-Man, Cassandra, Dre and Boo against Alex, Edgardo, Mookie and Stacy.
Now, regarding the hint about “the cat and mouse” game at Tribal Council, here is what I see happening. Dre, in an attempt to prove his allegiance to his new alliance, informs them that Mookie has the Hidden Immunity Idol, but that it is to be “shared” by all three. He also tells Earl that Alex was instrumental in getting Michelle booted at the last tribal council. Earl lets it “slip” that because of his “treachery”, Alex is the next boot. Alex then talks Mookie out of the HII with the intent on playing it at Tribal Council and booting Earl instead. By doing so, they “chop the head” off of the other alliance, and if they can lure Dre over to their side, they would have a clear majority. However, this plays right into Earl’s plan and on the sly, he secretly informs his alliance that just in case Alex manages to talk Mookie out of the HII, the five of them are going to vote out Edgardo instead. The Tribal Council unfolds with 5 votes for Edgardo, 4 votes for Earl, and Alex wastes the HII, leaving his alliance “shocked” and Earl’s alliance “gloating”.
So there you have it:
--- ->
Reward Challenge Winner:Boo (shares with Earl)
Sent to Exile Island: Mookie
Immunity Challenge Winners: Yau-Man
Voted out at Tribal Council: Edgardo
As usual, I’ll be back bright and early Monday morning with my recap.
So till then,
Take Care,
FReepmail me if you want added to (or removed from) the Survivor Ping List.
