| KujikawaRising 12/05/17 10:34:21 AM #19: | Hunahpu is a god-tier tribe. The fact that it has Keith Nale, Jeremy Collins, Natalie Anderson, and Kelley Wentworth ALONE is great, but then you throw in glorious trainwreck Drew Christy, oblivious Disney Prince Jon Misch, and the Evil Stepmother in Missy Griffiths-Payne and... yeah, that's one of the greatest tribes in history that did the light-blue color quite proud. Reed Kelly also adds something. Quits McGee does not. So what is the greatest light-blue tribe in history? Kucha, Drake, or Hunahpu? Underleveled posted... Also wut at that bolded statement, this has been going on since HvV, and has been in absolute full force since Worlds Apart. Game Changers is when it really started having a major impact on the gameplay. Before then, it was just one or two gimmicks or advantages per season that weren't idols (which is an essential part of Survivor). I refer to this new era of Survivor as such because of how impactful it has become on the approach to the game. I still think "old school" goes to 12. I mean, yeah, 1-8 could be called the "Golden Age" with All-Stars being the ending point. I think Vanuatu was the season that started to put people off (don't ask me why), which is what caused the steep drop in popularity. The thing with 11-12 is that idols were such a new thing that nobody, including production, had any idea what to do with them, so it still counts as "old school" to me. With Cook Islands, the gimmicky way to divide tribes, the ability to react to the idol (Cao Boi of all people!), and the final three reshaped the game, which is makes that the first season that's not old school. --- http://i.imgur.com/t3naEGu.jpg I'm BlueCrystalTear, probably at work. ...
