PB&J. There are chips, though. How come we don’t see anyone affected because they have a nut allergy?

My guess is no one this season has a nut allergy.

Jeff stated that they would be out if their bucket dropped smashed the tile.  What if they lowered their bucket slowly until it was sitting on the tile…would that work, i wonder, or is the bucket heavy enough to break the tile just by sitting on it???

Has anyone used Sai’s full name? Why doesn’t the chyron ever say “Sai”?

It's basically like saying SGA instead of using the latter's full name.  All about convenience

[dizzyd]

20s lol, what a surprise Ced!

[Straycat80]

Poor Cedrick. He really sucks at challenges.

I think that if you give away enough of the rope, the bucket drops.

I don’t think I phrased that properly. My point is that you probably can’t rest the bucket on the tile.

Twenty seconds? Is that a record for lack of endurance? Poor Cedrek.

[Rodney]

The teams are as follows:

Orange: Star, Joe, Mitch, Chrissy, Eva, and Sai.

Purple: Kyle, Shauhin, David, Cedrek, Mary, and Kamilla.

[LadyChatts]

Kyle/Kamilla and Joe/Eva really lucked out winding up together in their respective groups.  Sai might be screwed with that group.  Chrissy already wanted her out, Joe doesn't want her on the jury, I think Eva wanted her out.  Of course Joe's worried about Mitch now, and they may want to get another former Civa out.

And of course to the surprise of no one, Cedrek is out first.

[Rodney]

Cedrek out after twenty seconds.  Wow.  He's pathetic.

[gorgy]

Cedrek is such a secret asshole

[Rodney]

Star's out?!  After her performance last week, I didn't expect her to fall out so soon!

[iMonrey]

Good Lord, Cedrek can't do anything. 

[truthaboutluv]

I know some don't like this format but I do. One, it's great at shaking things up right at the merge, depending on the group. For example, Shauhin's "power" relies on having his allies voting with him. But what if they're not all together?

[Rodney]

Chrissy's out now.

Kamilla's out now.

Aw.  Mary fell out.

[Michichick]

Come on, Mitch

[Brown44]

I hope with Cedric it's not 20secs for other things.

[Rodney]

Shauhin is starting to slip.

[iMonrey]

I don't think it's a coincidence most of the women went out first.

[Carey]

No, Cedrek cannot do anything.  He lasted 20 seconds...maybe that's a record for the guy

[LadyChatts]

Cedrek's probably lucky the pre-merge portion doesn't last as long as it used to, he probably would have gotten kicked to the curb for poor challenge performance by now.  Makes me wonder the fate of Vula if they had voted him out first or second.

[Rodney]

Oops!  Shauhin's out!

. . . Oh, did Sai fall at a time I didn't notice?

[Michichick]

Well, shit

[dizzyd]

Jeff for the title.

[Lantern7]

Shauhin can do his own island chanting soundtrack?

[Rodney]

Mitch is out!

David vs. Eva on the orange team.

Surprised that Eva's so solid.

[LadyChatts]

Is budget so low now they need contestants to make up funky challenge music?

[Rodney]

Probst says the title?

[truthaboutluv]

So Joe is going to make the case that Mitch needs to go because he's too likeable and has a great story.

But will want people to keep Eva who is likable, also has a good story and is now showing she's a bad ass in challenges. And unlike Mitch, she has tight No.2 with Joe.

[Rodney]

Shauhin providing the vocalizations is LOL.

[Lantern7]

Now it’s fifteen seconds. Probst should just punch Cedrek in the nads.

Edited April 10 by Lantern7

[MerBearHou]

Shauhin is making me laugh with the Survivor soundtrack

[Rodney]

Wow.  Eight people fell in under fifteen minutes?!

[truthaboutluv]

Yeah I'm ready for this challenge to be over. I can't deal with Mr. Flexing anymore. 

[iMonrey]

OK Shauhin. It was cute at first. Now it's annoying.

[dizzyd]

I like Kyle. I don’t like David.

[Michichick]

I really need Kyle to win.

[Rodney]

Kyle's finally slipping.

It's the callus/wart argument again.  Oh, boy.

[Straycat80]

This is a hard challenge. I’d want more than PB and J. How about a steak. 

[MerBearHou]

This really is a fitness magazine.  My word.

[Rodney]

Eva's finally slipping, too.

Joe's coaching Eva to hold on.  But . . . she can't!  She's out!

Joe wins immunity for the orange team!

Down to David and Kyle.

[Michichick]

Kyle, wtf

[LadyChatts]

Damn, I really wanted Kyle to win over David.  Hoping Joe pulls off the overall win between the two.

[Pepper the Cat]

Amazing job by Eva
 

 

[Rodney]

Kyle drops!

David wins immunity for the purple team.

[dizzyd]

I don’t need a shoutout to Gabler.

[Michichick]

David is way too cocky and I can’t stand it.

[Carey]

Thought Eva would somehow get there, but still a nice run

[LadyChatts]

39 minutes?  Remember when these challenges started at dawn and ended at night?

[Rodney]

Damn.  Neither Joe nor David has budged.

[DEL901]

If David drops, it will be from showing off how easy it is.
