We thankfully returned to a full Tribal Council this week, but this is the second week where a clear, logical plan is traded for another fuzzy outcome. Are we watching the results of a single skillful player or the bungling results of an inept alliance? Who do you credit with this week's results?

How did your assessment of the castaways change after this episode? Who do you think is playing the best, and who is still in jeopardy of being voted out next? Who impressed you the most?

No surprise we got a wide variety of feedback on this last episode. Some really disliked the move back to tiny tribes, some thought it was exciting because it was unpredictable and others thought it was just meh. In the end, it was Survivor and that is what we show up for each week.

Overall feedback remained positive this week with some saying it was the best of the season, but quite a few were left feeling a bit empty given the vote out. The one thing we all agreed on was that we prefer a real merge with everyone vulnerable and voting. We're excited to see where the game goes next now that the battle lines have been drawn.

Relatively speaking, that was a pretty solid Merge episode. We got a surprise ending, and we may get to skip the Mergatory silliness of the 40s. Which do you like better, earn the merge meal or everyone gets to eat? How long do you think this majority alliance can hold together?

Production loves Tiny Tribes, and the "nowhere to hide" concept. It did allow one castaway to finally exact some revenge for another's duplicitous actions. What did you think of the shuffle to three tribes of four? How will this vote out affect the alliances going into the merge? Will there be a clear majority in control of the first vote?

Feedback on this episode was a mixed bag with the majority settling on "predictable" as the primary adjective. There was some excellent gameplay that was celebrated, but most are simply looking forward to the merge at this point. The idea of shuffling to tiny tribes did not excite anyone. Oh well, we remain hopeful as we look forward to the next installment of our favorite show.

We got lots of Tribe Time to see how the new tribes were getting along. That certainly provided some insights into how the social game is progressing. What did you think of the mechanics and gameplay we got from this Journey? How do you feel about them shuffling back out into three tiny tribes again for next week?

While the fans saw this as an improvement over the last episode, many are still lamenting the lack of suspense when it comes to the vote out. There was also a lot of discussion on the potential to see tribes start to throw challenges to secure a majority at the merge. We remain excited to see what comes next!
