I've only watched the first half so am not going to read the comments above. But last week at tribal when revealing who was voted off, Jeff said "second person voted off the island." Did I miss something? I do know that one person had to leave due to medical issues, but wasn't last week the first tribal counsel? Did I miss a week? It does usually take me a few weeks to learn peoples names etc. I was quite impressed with the two who solved the ring puzzle seemingly quickly. Also wondered if there was some rule that the bag being filled with coconuts had to be dragged within a certain distance from the pile. Because it seemed like they were dragging the bag close to the pile then picking up a coconut and bringing it back to the bag. I should watch it again. I'll be back to comment on this weeks show. No one I know watches and Reddit posters seem to study the game so closely that they compare current to previous plays and challenges and just lose me completely. I don't have favorites yet but do like the two players who seem to be flirting with each other. I hope they can avoid being targets, but that's unlikely.

She was overly confident and greedy. When she read that the II would keep value if she didn't use it, I knew she'd be greedy and not use it. https://ew.com/tv/recaps/survivor-45-recap-episode-3/

@sushipup2.....no. Everyone's having issues sporadically. I tried starting a thread, posting it to several forums and after multiple tries got it to post with a limited number of photos, got it into the Antique forum. Then I tried editing it to put in more photos multiple times and it would not accept them. I finally gave up. I doubt if anyone's hating me for liking an old Persian rug....that was the topic.

That's CRAZY! I picked him out in the bios because he's from MI which (will always have my heart) and the little bit he's been shown he stood out because he's' so thoroughly midwestern. But that scene - what a shame it didn't make the show. Hope he can make the merge but seems unlikely.
