Noted. This is why I’m leaning to $7 instead of $10. So far I haven’t received enough feedback to justify any change.

Re: The DVDTalk Survivor Game Spring 2025 Edition

Though I've never won, I'm ok with an ante increase. $10 would be my limit.

Congrats, JuryDuty! I admit I didn’t think Kyle had much of a chance going in, but when Eva was trying to take credit for turning on Shauhin and Kyle said “Well, actually…” I thought he locked it up.

I was annoyed when they didn’t vote out Joe late when he didn’t have immunity, but for once it worked out to let the power couple waltz through.

Entirely off topic, but I have to ask: has the sand that is omnipresent on all the cast members' faces been digitally applied? Because I know that if I had sand on my face, I'd wipe it off at the first opportunity.

If it HAS been added digitally, the producers need to cut that crap out ASAP.

Interesting conspiracy theory, but it seems unlikely. I’ve seen players come back from challenges and talk all covered in mud, when I’m thinking like you, that I’d want to wash it off first thing. Who knows why they do it.

Yeah, I don’t do it for the money either, and I wouldn’t be in favor of raising the price of my donation. And the idea of guessing the final three sounds like a billion-to-one longshot lol.

I’m usually out on Monday evenings when the draft is held, but I’m getting tired of living the quack life lol.

Re: The DVDTalk Survivor Game Spring 2025 Edition

I'd prefer to stay at $5. We don't want to lose any regulars.

I don't think it's digitally added, but I do think production has a say in when they wash up. For instance, I think they send them directly to the reward and may tell them not to wash off on purpose (to make it look rougher, or like they're tougher). It's the same way that there are SO MANY shots lately with everyone sitting in a row, unlike you'd do in real life. Most groups end up sitting in circles, but Survivor groups are almost always in rows. I'm sure this is a production thing so they can get better shots.
