I haven't watched the latest episode yet but it doesn't make sense that they caved to pressure since all the episodes had already been filmed by the time people got wind of the segregation. They must have decided during filming that it wasn't worth the risk and they should go ahead and merge.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

tribes by race was only done to get a few more people to watch the premiere...

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

Really, the whole divided by race is still a big issue and will be for at least a while I think as alliances will more likely to be drawn in racial sands. I wish that they would've kept the 4 tribes longer. There was no reason to dissolve them this fast. Oh well, I'll still watch every episode :-).

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

The spaniards would get their asses handed to them, and then when they did merge, be picked off faster, because there is less of them than the other races.

Assuming they stuck together in racial aspects after merging.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

There was a Spaniard tribe? Why would they make a tribe of people all descended from one country, but not for the others?

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

smartass much? :p

im pretty sure we all knew what he meant.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

You're right, each tribe wasn't from one country each. I looked it up, there was an Irish tribe, an Angolan tribe, and a Laotian tribe. :p

My guess is neither you nor Typhoid know many Mexicans and/or latinos. There is a rather large difference between 'Spaniard' and even 'Hispanic'.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

You clearly knew what I meant.
Pretty sure you're just looking to stir **** up, or one of your own really lame personal victory.

And there isnt a lot of difference between the terms of hispanic/latino, and spaniard.

Latino/hispanic: Someone who speaks spanish, commonly used for Latin America.
Spaniard: One who lives in, or decended from Spain.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

I wouldn't expect Canadians to be experts on the subject, therefore the mistake is perfectly understandable.

You've probably only met a handful of hispanics, anyway. I wouldn't hold the little oops against you.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA.



Yeah.
Canada isnt a multicultural country at all.
Damn our 100% white, christian heritage.
Prasie be to Jesus.

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

Yes I need a lame personal victory every once in awhile, I'm petty what can I say. :p

No there is a rather large difference, but it wouldn't seem so from your definitions, which, while pretty close, are still way off. For one, latino does no mean someone who speaks Spanish. And for two, Spaniard means exactly a native or inhabitant of Spain, not descended from. I'm anal or try to be anal about words, I like them to have exact meanings and for people to use them correctly.

And the reason I guessed that you don't have many latino friends because they would have jumped on you before a lot harder than I did for calling them Spaniards. It's like the Canadians I know who get mad when they're referred to as Americans abroad.

Hey, take it up with dictionary.com, not me. :p

Re: New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race
 

I can see you're much less anal than me, because you obviously didn't look at the dicionary.com definitions.
