Note 1: Lindsey and Carl competed in a nature quiz tiebreaker, and Carl lost.
Note 2: Lindsey was eliminated because she had four previous votes against her.

[edit] Elimination notes

  • Diane - The tribe turned against her when Clarence fed her with a can of beans without the consensus of the tribe and being seriously dehydrated especially during the Immunity Challenge. Despite deemed untrustworthy for smuggling the beans, Clarence was saved for his strength and Diane was voted off 6-2.
  • Jessie - Although she was well-liked, she's also a weak link in challenges and was next to go 5-2.
  • Carl - The Samburu tribe divided 4-4 with the older Carl, Linda, Teresa and Frank deadlocked with younger Lindsey, Brandon, Kim P and Silas at Tribal Council. It was established in Season 2 that previous votes broke the tie, however this was the first tribal council for Samburu. Lindsey and Carl competed in a nature quiz tiebreaker, and Carl lost.
  • Linda - She was voted off for being seen as a weak link. The fact that she was part of the old Samburu alliance played as another contribution to her departure, making her an easy target for the young Samburu alliance. The vote was 4-3.
  • Silas - The first ever Tribe Shuffle sent Silas, Frank and Teresa to a new team. Being deprived from his alliance (he was the leader of the younger Samburu alliance), his cocky attitude, plus isolating Frank and Teresa (the only remaining older members of the old Samburu) spelled his doom with an unanimous descision 5-1.
  • Lindsey - Samburu had three original Boran and three original Samburu. Their votes deadlocked and Lindsey was eliminated because she had four previous votes against her. Lex, Kelly, and Tom voted for Lindsey because Kim J. had sent them a signal at a challenge that Lindsey had votes against her.
  • Clarence - After the beans fiasco in Day 3, Boran deemed him untrustwothy; and in the newly merged Moto Maji Tribe, he was a physical threat. He was next to go 8-2.
  • Kelly - In the previous Tribal Council, Lex received two mystery votes against him. He suspected Kelly had cast one of the votes and targeted her as a threat. Kelly made a pact with Kim P, Frank and Teresa, but Lex convinced Brandon to side with him and Kelly was voted off 5-4.
  • Brandon - Brandon alienated his tribemates following his decision to side against Kelly and his former original Samburu tribemates in the previous tribal council. Even the people that he sided with disapproved, and began to think he was untrustworthy (with the exception of Lex). He was voted off in a 6-2 vote.
  • Frank - He was an original member of the Samburu tribe, and also he wanted to go. He was voted off in a 6-1 vote.
  • Kim - She was an original member of the Samburu tribe. She was voted off in a 4-2 vote.
  • Teresa - She was the last remaining member of the original Samburu tribe. She was voted off in a 4-1 vote, but not before revealing that she was the one who casted the mystery vote against Lex.
  • Tom - He was considered too untrustworthy. He was voted off in a 3-1 vote.
  • Lex - Kim J knew she would be unable to beat either Ethan or Lex. She took Ethan because he was more deserving to win and voted out Lex.
  • Kim - She was underrated the whole time, despite winning the last two Immunity Challenges. Gained the votes of Brandon and Kim P.
  • Ethan - Ethan had played the game without upsetting anyone, and also always did well in challenges. The jury also felt he was more deserving of the win. He won 5-2, with the votes of Frank, Teresa, Tom, Kelly and Lex.

[edit] Controversy

There was some controversy surrounding an immunity challenge in the finale episode. In a "Fallen Comrades" challenge, in which the contestants were quizzed on trivia regarding other players in the game who had been voted out, the final question was "Which female contestant has no piercings?" The official answer was Kelly Goldsmith, which eventual runner-up Kim Johnson answered and received the win for. Unbeknownst to the producers, however, contestant Lindsey Richter fit the question as well, which eventual third-place finisher Lex van den Berghe answered and was incorrectly marked wrong for. After this producer mistake had been found out, both van den Berghe and fourth place finisher Tom Buchanan were awarded with the $100,000 runner-up prize instead of the traditional third and fourth place earnings.
