Yau, Yau, Yau…

If you watch Survivor, you already know.

It really is all about Yau-man.

The spindly little mid-50′s guy has been the highlight of the show. He’s got to be one of the craftiest, most intuitive players ever. Brilliant call last night on deciding to use the idol. Earl all shaking his head “no, no NO”, Yau thinking to himself “yes yes YES”. Nice.

I’m still not convinced giving the truck to the “fickle-as-they-get” Dreamz (Andria Herd) was the smartest move, but if it gets him the million dollars, I’ll have been proven wrong.

A couple of things I think CBS could do to improve the game:

1. Allow the hidden idol to be played AFTER the votes have been read. This would introduce a lot more strategy to the whole proceeding.
2. Allow the immunity necklace to be transfered AFTER the votes have been cast. For the same reason as above.

The “castaways” have come up with some creative ways of using the idols once found, but it could be a lot better.
