Survivor: One World

[PeppyGPhiB]

Anyone else catch what one of the women said about the reward challenge finally being on the island, and how nice it was that they weren't going to have to walk or boat for miles to get there? Are the challenges usually on a different island? If so I guess I've missed that all these years.

The challenges typically are some distance from camp, as is Ponderosa. Otherwise, the construction noises and everything would be too close to camp.

Jay, Jay, Jay. You fooled me. I thought you could see what was going on. One mistake after another last night.

I figured it was a ways away, and I know that Ponderosa is often on another nearby island, but I was surprised to hear the remark, "finally a challenge on the island!" Figured though it was a ways away, it was still on the island.

I did a little digging, because I knew I had seen a map before of where Survivor was being filmed in Samoa. Here it is:



It's from Season 19, but I bet the locations are mostly still the same.

It all seems to be on the same island, but since almost everything is near the beach and is some distance apart, they may well use boats to move from location to location. It occurred to me last night when Alicia said "the island" that that might just be how they refer to the area around the camp and that they might not mean it literally.

I know, right?

Kim's playing a good game, although I wish she would've gone with the Troy/Jay/Mike/Kim/Chelsea/Sabrina alliance instead of the women's alliance. But, her chances of winning with the women's alliance are probably higher than with the other one, so I can see why she did that. I just like Jay and Troy better than Alicia, Kat and Christina. And, like I've said before, my liking a particular Survivor is usually their kiss of death.

Good for Troy for playing his HII and not going home with it in his pocket. I wonder if it'll be re-hidden and come back into play?

Yeah, except that since they knew (thanks to Jay) that he had it, it turned out he didn't need to play it. There were only two votes for Troy, while there were five votes for Jay. HII successfully flushed.

And I know what you mean about liking players being the kiss of death. Same here.
