Based on the preview after last night's show, I am thinking there will be a tie vote. Probst said this has never happened before. I am pretty sure there have been two idols played at the same tribal, so I don't think that is the thing that has never happened before. I think there will either be a 3 way tie in the first vote (6 left - 2, 2 and 2 vote for three people) or there will be a tie vote on the final. If it is a tie vote in the final, my guess to the resolution is this. I think they read the votes before they ever leave the island. If there is a tie, they do the tie breaker vote before they leave the island. Somehow, they will have the tiebreaker completed on the island before the live show. I don't think they would allow it to come down to voting at the live final show.

Solid guess. I could see it.

Has the season finale ever been on a Wednesday? I always thought it was on a Sunday. This is one of the first season in which case I dont think I have a clue who will win. So pumped to see what happens.

They've had it on Wednesdays before, but most of the seasons finish up on Sundays, especially the ones in the Spring. My guess is they don't like competing with Sunday Night Football.

It's been Wednesday for the last couple of seasons. I'm like you, I have no idea who will win. Of those left the only one I see with no shot is Kimmie, but as I type this IF she gets into a F3 and is the only woman could she get lady votes from Ciera, Wiggles, Tasha? Would that be enough? Lots of scenarios. This should be fun.

They have had two idols played in the same tribal. But they haven't had two idols played in the same tribal leaving no votes left. When it's occurred, there was still a third person that received a vote and they were removed.

 

I do agree with you about a tie in the final tribal. Producers aren't leaving the island without a winner. But I think it would be awesome if there was a tie and they had to build a fire on the stage, live.

Yeah I know. I wouldn't want to be stuck there with her, so I'd find some where else to live for the couple weeks. The food and what luxury they have, isn't worth still being stuck with Kass.

 

I don't know. After 20+ days of rice and if I'm lucky a reward challenge or two I think I'd have just as much fun pushing her buttons back. Free food and free beer???? Sssshhhhhhhooooooootttttttt.......Kass who????

I've always wondered about this. The first season the winner was announced right on the island and I believe that was the only one. I'm sure the producers know who has won but do they let the players know? How terrible would it be waiting to find out if they don't let them know? In Abi's Ponderosa video they said it was July 4, they will have had to wait almost 6 months not knowing if the won. The next season has already been filmed and is in the can, those people would have had to with for over a year. My guess is that everyone knows but they sign a non-disclosure contract with harsh penalties if they leak the information.

I think Tasha made a mistake getting out Abi. She should have flipped, taken all the guys out. That leaves her with Abi, Wentworth and Kimmi. Her odds of winning would have been WAY higher than going against Spencer and Jeremy.

I've always assumed that the players didn't know until the live reading. Don't know why, but I just never thought they'd tell them because they'd want the live reaction.

 

The producers gotta know because the voters show the camera, but even if they didn't, I'm sure they'd read them because it helps them decide how they want to display different "stories" during the editing process.

It's Finale Day!!!!

 

Who wins?

 

It should be either Jeremy, Spencer or Wentworth but the way this season has gone who knows.

 

Keith is a darkhorse.

 

Kimmy and Tasha, if they make the finals, are taken as goats. No chance.

Let's go! Really looking forward to tonight.

 

I have been saying for about half the season now that I really liked where Spencer's game was heading and I thought he'd win, so I'm sticking with him as my prediction tonight. But I think Jeremy has a great shot as well. If either are in the finals without the the other, I think they win.

 

I have Kimmi in our work pool, so if she wins, I get $100 but I don't think she stands a chance.

The speeches by the jury should be entertaining to say the least.

Usually my favorite part of every season.
