Welcome to Tribal Council, guys. You're slowly becoming the Negara tribe from Bali! Tonight one of you will leave and this group of returnees will be left with seven. This is crunch time.
Let's talk about relationships within the tribe, by now there must be alliances floating around. Do you trust that the the bonds you've made are enough for you to warrant another couple of days? You've played four times, it could be justifiable cause to boot you over the others who are playing their second game, how would you address that as the most seasoned Veteran?
You said at the last Tribal Council you don't hold this tribe to a higher standard, is that the right mentality? I know from playing in this season that when you're in a group of people who have played before there is an expectation, but since you're all Veterans who've made poor mistakes in your past games do you object to trying to point out flaws in your tribe or specific people?
A recurring theme from the first time Rookies vs. Veterans was introduced is that the Veterans tribe can't get it together, you guys have won an Immunity Challenge at this point but one out of four isn't a great track record. Are you guys destined to be on the backfoot? Will history repeat itself and a Rookie will once again take the title from the Veterans as it stands?
What is the general opinion of the Rookies tribe for everyone in this group? Is there much talk about partnerships and who is buddied up with who or does this added layer of the game not even come into conversation? Would you be open to target somebody on this side if you knew their partner and you had a dislike/distrust just so that person would be disadvantaged come merge?
This tribe has had an evacuation and two tribal councils, from what has been shown in results they've been landslides and it doesn't feel as though that person isn't missed once their torch is snuffed. How different would it be going into this vote? Is it going to be the same or will this create a line in the sand showing who is in the numbers and those on borrowed time?
There's absolutely no question that both tribes have been tremendously active and dedicated to the cause, but that also creates an issue as the game can change on the flip of a dime. Is there a pressure to "be there" and show face just to save face? What is the best decision for this group moving into the next round if that has already been decided?
Going back to Gabe's question, the first time we used this format of Rookies and Veterans the Veterans were people voted out before the merge and/or jury. There's a mix of finalists, jurors, pre-jury and first boots this time around and yet there's still the same problem. Would it be different if we called you guys Favorites? Would that give a sense of importance or does being known as a Veteran demoralise the tribe?
From Sherry all the way to Stephanie, women have been the targets each time but typically in Online Reality Games the women are somewhat favored because of their gender. What is the difference in this game? Should we expect a woman to leave tonight or will a man face the snuffer? Finally, to close Tribal Council out, how do you rate your chances of this tribe for the next round?
Okay, it is time to vote.
