New season of Survivor to divide tribes by race

[Null]

hrm, interesting.

every survivor season, me and some friends all write down who is going to win survivor (weeks before the show starts, just by looking at thier pictures from the website, nothing else) seal em in an envolope and open it up after the finale. its fun because you tend to totally forget who you wrote down untill you open it up.

(last season i picked the winner correctly! )

anywho, this will mix up my way of picking...

and i also wonder how long these teams would actually last, usually its only a matter of a couple episodes before they mix em up or merge a couple.

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.

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

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 :-).

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.

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