They had their buffs and then a separate blindfold on for that challenge but it seemed like it would be really easy to adjust" it so that you could see down if you were clever about it.

Not a big fan of the blindfold challenges. One of these times someone is going to get seriously injured and get taken out of the game. Almost happened to Kelly last season.

It's pretty much impossible to walk in a straight line when blindfolded though. That's not a huge concern as he can just follow the voice of the caller and understand where it is relative to drop off, even if the caller isn't talking to him.

Maybe he felt the mat (not sure if they hade one here but they usually do), but even then you would expect him to bump into some.

I have also noticed in previous seasons a slight head back tilt from players implying they have some degree of vision out the bottom of the blindfold. Those things are really hard to make perfectly cover eyesight.

Why don't they just give then some of those sleeping blindfolds or whatever to put on under the buff?

Ahh ok, missed this.

Kass is surprisingly not annoying this season.

They really got me with the kass edit.

Hey, kass is pretty cool.
Kass you idiot. Don't be like that making a fake idol.
Dammit, you went back to being good and gave kelly a gift.

Yeah same. Not sure why watching people get hurt in a really poorly designed challenge is funny tbh. There's other shows for that, with people that actually know what they sign up for.

Imagine someone like Tasha or Spencer breaking their legs and being evacuated, that would be such a bummer to the season. Just for this stupid challenge.

Did you really for 1 second believe she was making an idol, in plain sight, even telling people to back off? She might be a social outcast, but she's not ******ed.

Probably just because Abi Maria has dominated the first four episodes with her horribleness though.

possibly could've been a fake idol turned to gift once she realized she was busted.
but pretty sure it was intended to be a gift from the outset. good edit regardless.

Done.

You must not have seen her first season lol.

Anyways, it was probably more that kelly (?) walks over to check up on her and she tells her to go away.

Umad?

Yet

she hasn't even been to a tribal council yet, so its way too early to say. can't really judge anyone before their first TC

kass is more annoying this season than her last season. not even close.

I enjoyed Abi this episode. She's delusional and an idiot, sure. But somehow she convinced the entire tribe that she's the key. Why would Tasha go through all that trouble when she knows Abi is mad at Woo and Wll would be super easy to convince to vote with them? Either Abi is a genius or they're all idiots.

Does Tasha hold the record for most tribals attended pre merge yet?

Also, keeping Abi around when you are likely on the bottom always gives you a chance to survive. There is always a chance you can turn Abi on someone else, or someone else gets in her way and bam, you are randomly safe where it wasn't possible with any other combo of people that didn't involve Abi.

Care to explain?

i dont like her. and a temporary effort to try to be nice doesn't impress me.

i dont like to be a hater, but she brings it out in me.

best thing about her was her godawful random button clicking game play that screwed up the whole game. take that away, and what's left?

If someone else wins they're doing a good job of not giving it away on the edit

Mike last season had a super horrible edit for the first 3 episodes. It's conceivable to think that in an all stars season they need to give camera time to all the early boot people and tell those stories while they can.

Not saying you are wrong though, just that there is the possibility. There is still a lot of story to tell.

The twinnie also comes to mind as a recent edit of nothing in the beginning and then winning.

what did you think she was doing? even wentworth thought she might be making a fake idol. smart people do stupid **** regularly. PG and shirin were **** talking abi only a few feet from camp, leading to their demise.

just read this varner interview. most interesting part is that varner's story on tasha is that her edit is far from what she was actually like out there.

That doesn't really explain why this season is much worse.

I really wanted Woo to write Abi's name down for the laughs, his vote was clearly inconsequential but the fireworks would've made great TV.
