Help…for those watch Australian Survivor are you able to find episode 18? 19 has just been uploaded today, but I can’t find 18. I’m so addicted, I need it!!!! I hear you. I never was able to find episode 18 and it was driving me crazy too. I gave up and watched episode 19 last night. I hear you too Cadoodlebug and was just thinking yesterday that we should start a seperate thread for Australian Survivor and let this thread get back to American Survivor. I'll do that now.

Even though it is brilliant to place the coin back in the birdcage with the *this is an idol* note, I'm sad with who found it. I know there romance is going to get them in trouble but I think they are just so stinking cute together. I wasn't sad that Claire went home. What happened to the *you can't sit out back-to-back challenges rule? Or has that been asked and answered.

I believe the "can't sit out back to back challenges" comes from when they would have a reward challenge and then a separate immunity challenge in one episode (only one tribal vote). Since there was only one challenge and then a vote, Clare was safe to sit out again.

It had me confused, too, as to why she was allowed to sit out all those challenges. Made me wonder if she maybe had some physical issue? Were all the challenges with a water component? Was she not a strong swimmer?
Speaking of physical issues, I saw that injured shoulder guy was the one climbing up on the cube and getting the key. I think he really felt that. I realize I am old and out of shape, but it took me a long long time to recover from a rotator cuff injury. No way would I have been able to reach above my head and twist just a few days after the injury.

Why push it that hard? he's going to end up hurting himself worse and having to go home. anyone else could have done that, and the other one, is why have that loopy Carolyn being the one to do the main stuff soo? she did the spring thing, and the other challenge trying to get the circle up the pole, she did that one too and failed. like why? have her do it?? you would think the teams would pick better for challenges.

why have that loopy Carolyn being the one to do the main stuff I want to like her because she is so loopy, hoping she has some hidden strength to depend on. If I were on a Survivor tribe, the first thing I would want to do is sit down with them all to figure out strengths so we could make informed decisions on who does what. But then some people would lie to hide their strengths for fear of getting targeted, and I am good at NOTHING, so that would target ME

Wow, what a episode with a twist! At first I thought it was the same old stuff of sending 3 people to an island for a *journey* but THEN they switched it up on us by giving all 3 people a HII. But then they sent them back to a different tribe. Josh (I think that's his name) kept saying he was in so good with his old tribe but I thought they were thinking of voting him off.
Carolyn put the worthless coin with the paper proclaiming it an idol. Then she put 2 sticks making an X intertwined on the birdcage. Put two X'd sticks near camp along with the fake idol and Sarah *found* it.
Tribal was good, Sarah was voted out thinking she left with an idol in her pocket. In her interview she found out it was fake which made her feel better.
Carolyn continues to grow on me. Yam Yam is starting to irritate me.

cadoodlebug I agree with your entire post. Couldn't stand Carolyn at first and thought she was a dingbat. I thought those two Xs were ridiculous. I was dead wrong. Carolyn has turned out to be quite the player and she has really grown on me. She is fun to watch.

I have also been surprised by Carolyn. She has been able to keep the secret of getting into the bird cage for a while. I thought she might have told Josh about her idol but it doesn’t seem like she did.

But she's really clever in a dingy sort of way! Love how she teamed up with the new guy on the tribe!

The switching of the tribes was great. I love fake idols all over the place.

Re: Carolyn…
SO and I didn’t rewind to confirm but does anyone else think that Carolyn got confused in the episode where she opens the birdcage…about the idol and the extra item that was in the bag in the bag? The note said something like here is an immunity idol and also a silver bangle that you can do whatever you like with. Then later when she she got them backwards and it appeared like she kept the worthless item thinking it was the idol.
Are SO and I mixed up ourselves lol?

I’m confused also.
I am wondering if this is a tactic in the game (to have differences so when they merge there is confusion as to who has the real idol).
Danny found the idol and a silver coin in episode #1.
In episode # 3, I paused the DVR when he turns the paper toward the camera and the words can be clearly read. The second part of the paper says this exactly, “You have also found a silver coin that has absolutely no power…what you do with it is up to you.” He then puts the paper in his mouth and chews it, and wraps the coin in the remaining paper that says congratulations you’ve found a hidden immunity idol. Matt latter finds.
Also in episode 3, Matthew (hurt shoulder dude), hid the fake immunity idol that Jaime found while digging for worm. I paused the DVR, his note read, “congratulations you have found a hidden immunity idol. when played at tribal council any votes cast against you will not count. If you intend to play the idol you must do so anytime before the votes are read. The last time this can be used is when there are five players left in the game.”
Matthew didn’t have an additional note nor did he mention a coin or an additional object with his immunity idol. He spent his time making a fake with beads and string and made sure to plant the fake when everyone was sleeping.
Carolyn never shows her notes but says while holding them in the air. She found a hidden immunity idol ( referring to the silver coin), and then calls the string of beads, "beads of nothing".
I agree, Carolyn has grown on me too. She still is something else. And, I still can't imagine being stuck with her on an island. She is quite the player, I didn’t give her credit.

I agree, I believe Carolyn hid the real idol to be found and kept the fake idol for herself. She had them confused when she originally found them. Sarah DID go home with an idol in her pocket. They showed Sarah talking about going home with an idol in her pocket it in her exit interview....because SHE DID! I don't think production would have shown that if she was lying. So Carolyn seems to be playing...but her ditzyness is still there She is really growing on me.

Or is the idol only replaced once played.

I read somewhere that Jeff told her she went home with a fake idol. I think they changed which idol was fake for each tribe. Carolyn does have a real idol.

Wait a minute!!! They’ve never just cancelled a tribal council because someone left early before? Have they??? So lame. It seems fixed now.

I think they have too. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. I don’t know why. I wonder if Jeff ever discusses that/
