Esp. since they are talking about saving the guys and getting rid of the girls I don't see how he would get voted off so early in the game??
I think abe left because of all those bee stings he had in the preview

As I said before, V1man has already told us that Abe left because of a situation that came up on the outside. V1man's sources have told him not to believe the bee sting story as the reason for his departure.

Thanks, KT.

I've been reading some other message boards today and there are some highly pissed off people out there whose spoiler threads are apparently wrong. Go figure...

Over the past couple of months people have "borrowed" from one or more posts here at vevmo that became like Gospel once it was re-posted to another site, even while mods here often counseled caution for some of the speculation-cum-fact that was posted here.

The "final four" winner posting gleaned from the boat in the original trailer clearly turned out not to be the actual boat that appears in the second trailer, confirming our reluctance at the time to name the winners. The boat in the second trailer gave no pause to the wise theft-gifted pundits at another board who apparently never seriously revisited vevmo to check for updates or "rethinking." The previews of Johnny and Evelyn standing together in what appears to be the same area as Kenny and Tonya during the elimination deliberation, is branded as proof that one of them is to be evicted and the already cautioned spoiler to be wrong. It's amazing that people can read so much into a couple of seconds of video, especially when their reaction includes blaming vevmo for inaccurate spoilers (absent our caution).

The semantics of "spoilerism" is also apparently lost on other boards. We've said that Dave was the first to leave. That is what was posted elsewhere after we wrote it. I don't think we ever claimed he was the first to be voted off the island. Savvy readers will discover in couple of weeks that we were right.

We needed to correct the record recently about Tyrie, but that spoiler correction never made it back to the person who pirated it to another board as his/her own. Tyrie doesn't quit as he did on Gauntlet 3 -- my mistake, based on my own wishful interpretation of what someone who was there told me. Our earlier characterization of his relationships with other cast members remains valid, though; but, the background info almost never gets copied to other boards, just the headlines.

I'll really be amused if this comment finds its way to another board.

You're welcome. And I say ***k 'em! hehe...

No but seriously, it drives me insane when people take the things that you and B tell us and make assumptions that other events could not have taken place based off of what we have been told. Can't they all just learn to take it in and let it brew?

Also, something else that I found interesting was that Robin was a sailor.... maybe an easy way to get to the end.

Re: The Island: MTV - Spoiler Discussion

I thought this was a spoiler thread guys? Maybe we should start one for speculation? Just a thought.

Maybe LM. But what I meant to do was connect Robin having sailing experience with her making it far. That much I don't think is speculation.
