All we can do is take what we know thus far:

1. The Challenge takes place in Panama where three previous Survivors have been filmed.
2. The cast was told not to bring basic electric grooming products as they would be of no use (i.e. blow dryers, curling irons.)
3. Some cast members were told that watching previous Survivor seasons would be a good idea.
4. The smaller cast is in line with a more standard reality show (like Survivor) and much less than the 32 in The Gauntlet 3.

We will have to continue to piece this together before anything can be said definitively.

I've used the term "Survivor Inspired" in the past and that does fit in well with my above points , but that in no way should preclude the entirely realistic chance that this challenge is just a sequel to a pedigreed show in the BMP stable with a rebooted conceptual leaning.

(Although I still have a strong belief that it will have a new moniker and be a different type challenge.)

Alright thanks.

Man you guys are crazy with all of your Challenge knowledge, It makes me feel out of the loop. I don't know how you guys are so well informed, but I'm glad that somebody is well informed, cuz otherwise, I wouldn't know anything about the challenges except stuff from Fresh Meat to present.

Tell me about it. Before I found vevmo, I would search for information that usually came out to be false. I am glad that I found a site where I can believe anything that gets posted because they are always right.

I live by one rule: Two sources for everything unless the person is talking about their own involvement, like "They told us Tonya was going to go wake up Beth and then throw her stuff in the pool, so we knew it all in advance and had the lights all in place. Beth was the only one who didn't know what was going on and she was the only one who didn't go crazy. The producers loved it."

Occasionaly I'm lied to, but it doesn't happen often enough that I lose a great deal of sleep over it.

Is TJ Lavin still going to be the host?

I would think so. But I have no clue.

I am excited about the elimination process of this Challenge. So far there have been things pointing toward a Survivor-inspired" Challenge. Imagine if they voted for who to be eliminated. That would switch the game completely.

I don't think that I would enjoy that unless there was an elimination round similar to a duel, inferno or gauntlet. Maybe it'll be similar to the duel as in everyone for themself but the winner of the days challenge chooses one person for the elimination round and everybody else votes in the opponent for that person. who knows I just really hope that there is an elimination round

I guess I would have to agree with you. If they voted to decide who would leave than it would be a totally unfair game. It wouldn't come down to who worked the hardest. It would be the person with the most friends.

I would like if everybody voted for two people who they would like to see and the two people with the most votes would go to an elimination round.

I hope that everyone just votes someone that they want to go home and the person with the most votes goes...and I hope the votes are NOT anonymous, just spit out your vote and man up to who you chose should they not go home...I wanna see the drama associated with something like that.
