Matt - To what extent do you think the partner twist is going to impact who people decide to vote off at the end of the day? Does the possibility of getting an advantage outweigh voting out someone else that might be helpful to your game?

Sarah - What do you think tonight's vote should be primarily based off of? 

Dino - You guys got swept in the challenge yesterday. Is there something you guys need to do to turn it around or was that just a particularly bad challenge for this tribe?

Zach - After tonight, you'll be back even with Akrotiri. To what extent is having numbers in the event of a swap or merge down the line a consideration for tonight's vote?

Adam - Is your impression right now that tonight's vote is more of a consensus-based vote or an alliance-based vote?

Ben - How, if at all, do you think having a 16-person cast makes this game different from an 18 or 20 person one?

I think there's very little wiggle room with a sixteen person.  So, the bonds that you make on your tribes of eight will ultimately be the most important.  The swaps though are all very much make or break.

I dont think a partner twist is a huge impact on who I vote out, as my primary factor for my vote is relationships. However, if I do know that someone is partnered to a threat on the other tribe, that may influence me to vote for them so the threat doesnt get an advantage

I don't think we did anything particularly wrong. A lot of them are probably more in tune with the tengaged community. A few of us (myself included) have taken prolonged breaks so this just isn't our forte. We beat them in the first challenge, we can do it again.

Having numbers is big in survivor, pretty much besides the outwit, outplay, and outlast, you always want numbers.

I'll go tally the votes!
