Survivor Palau - News Log January 13, 2005
On Janurary 13th CBS confirmed that we had spoiled all 20 contestants correctly. Congratulations to Cari C. on a job very well done.
From the CBS Site:
Twenty Americans are stranded in Palau, the South Pacific paradise some call the 8th natural wonder of the world, where colorful wildlife, dense jungles and an underwater world beyond belief are haunted by the wreckage and remnants of World War II. From the beginning, the game will be changed in a dramatic way: everything the Survivors have come to expect will be wiped out in the first 10 minutes. Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast all others in Palau? Don't miss a single episode of SURVIVOR: PALAU, premiering Thursday, February 17 at 8 pm ET/PT, only on CBS.

We continue to get photos and information from our source in the islands. For the latest photos click here.

We continue to get great spoiler and intelligence information straight from the Palau Islands. If you don't want to know, don't read below. But for the latest on the upcoming season of Survivor, read on.
We have been sent a picture of the Survivor Palau buff. This one in blue. Click here to see it and then use your back button to return to this page.
Notice the military style chevrons on the it's left side with sharks swimming through the area, the overall blue camo pattern and of course the Survivor Palau emblem. The chevron's again point to the fact that this edition of Survivor appears to be paying respect to the World War II history of the islands. Note the broken up aircraft on the bottom portion of the emblem.
Sharks do infest the waters of Palau. Our island source tells us that one of the Survivors caught a shark. Details are sketchy. We don't know which contestant, but we've been told that a machete was involved. We've also been told that "the production people say it is the best piece of footage they have ever had on survivor!"
Although we don't yet know which tribe camped where....we do know there was a camp located on Ulong Island and another on Margie's Beach. As we mentioned above the logo features downed World War II aircraft. There are the remains of combat planes on both Ulong Island and Margie's Beach. The production crew built a large pool on the beach presumably for challenges. The pool was filled in when production was concluded. Our source reports a large number of fire pits were built.
We believe the Tribal Council area was built on Light House Channel near the World War II pier. Local carpenters built a replica of a Japanese Bunker that included twisted doors. Those who have seen it say it looked real and was built of foam and plywood.

December 12, 2004
At the end of the Survivor Vanuatu Reunion show CBS confirms what we had reported earlier. Survivor 10 will take place in the Palau Islands and will be known as Survivor Palau. Jeff Probst informed us that there would be 20 survivors this time and that the first 10 minutes would see a game changing twist.
November 30, 2004
Well now that we know where Survivor 10 will be the next thing we must find out is who will our Survivors be. Rumors are running rampant all over the internet but I think we have a lock on a few of the lucky contestants.
First up is Jolanda Jones. Jolanda is a 39 year old African American laywer/inspirational speaker from Houston Texas. Jolanda is very athletic. She is involved in track and field and basketball. She has participated in the Pan Am games and the Olympic trials. Jolanda is extremely tall. She is around six feet tall. She is very intellegent and was even nominated for a Rhodes scholarship.
Our next possible candidate is Ian Rosenberger. Ian is a 23 year old camp counselor and student from Ambridge Pennsylvannia. Ian attends Penssylvannia State University where he is the student body president. Ian is a certified lifegaurd and scuba diver. He is also an Eagle scout. Ian is also extremely tall. He is said to be around 6'7". Ian was a finalist for Vanuatu but did not make the cut.
Some of the lesser known contestants include:
Mindy: A social studies teacher in her early 30's from Maryland. Mindy is of medium height and build. She has long brown hair and is a huge Survivor fan. Mindy is rumored to be Jewish.
Tracy: 36 year old female from Buffalo
Kristen: A suburban wife in her late 20's to early 30's from Minnesota.
We have no pictures available for the last three but as soon as anything surfaces, I will be back to let you know. We do know that there will again be 18 Survivors instead of 16. Five down thirteen more to go.
Palau is southeast of the Philippines.
