Definitely forgot about the family members coming. I haven't really watched this show since the first season. I bet that's it.

Thanks. I've never understood why CBS doesn't post the rules on their website.

Good call.

Some people on alt.tv.suvivor have suggested that if they post the rules on the CBS site then they'd have to follow them all the time, not just when they felt like enforcing it. Also, people would spend time scouring the rules to find loopholes to do what they wanted to do in the game. I'm with you though, I want to see the rules posted.

Well... I think something like...

"You can't steal another person's idol, they have to give it to you," would be an ok rule to post.

And things like... "If someone uses an idol during tribal council, and they receive the most votes, there is no re-vote, and the person with the second highest number of votes will leave the game."

And... "If someone wins immunity during a challenge, they can choose to keep immunity for themself, or they can give it to someone else at tribal council."

etc. From what I understand, those rules are pretty cut and dry. It'd definitely be nice to have something to reference when unsure about one of these, or other rules of the game that people tend to not know or forget.

Who called it?

I was a bit disappointed with the family member's appearance. Usually they actually get to compete in the challenge with their family...which is usually pretty cool. I also knew Jeff was lying when he said that the family wasn't there. I totally expected it when Bob's wife said "I've got something to show you". Why do you think they didn't do Exile? I know partially because the family members were there, and they gave everyone a chance to see them, but does anyone think it's partially because everyone left knows that Sugar has the idol, and they'd take the comfort and not bother? And speaking of Sugar + HII, I'm very curious why there's been no talk of blindsiding her. I feel she's a pretty big jury threat, since she's been instrumental in some big moves in the game. Although I doubt the rest of the tribe feels that way.
