I have not decided yet wether I will continue with this game or not. While spending a great deal of time on a challenge and loosing is an inharent risk of the game, the other tribe lost and yet are still being rewarded with a numbers advantage. Random twists that mess up your plans are also par for the couse, but this seems more like manipulation after the fact than a prior plan. I will see how I think tomorow after I calm down a bit.

Gary I think he decided to take out all of the inactives instead of doing TC.

I know, but it is still rewarding the loosing tribe because of where those inactives were.

Yeah instead of doing a tc i took out the inactives. Your bringing up the going into swap thing with numbers? even if the inactives where still in the game its not like they could of helped you.
The game will continue as planed.

Actualy yes the inactives could have helped me, Jeff, at least more than somone trying to vote me out. Had you continued with tribal council and also removed the inactives, it would have at least aproched a reasonable compromise between the desire for active players and the spirit of the challenge victory.
I need to look at several issues now. Firstly, games are about fun.. even loosing them. It is not fun to have a victory taken away.. I can't trust that this will be a one time occurence.. can't put similar effort into another chalenge as easily now. Secondly, having spoken out against what I belive is an unfair change.. have I drawn too much of a target on my back. (I dbout anyone from Ravu is going to want to work with me now.. lol) Thirdly, what constitutes incative is aparently one self vote.. so any wekends away are out, even if I had a strong enough allince to support me (see Earl going).
Overall, I take a lot of crap in stride when I am having fun. This = not fun. The rest of the game, could still be fun.. but I am not so sure any more.
I decided to post in the open forum, because I would rather get it out there and deal with it rather than just quietly resent something.

I think it's unfair, too, frankly. Especially after all the hard work our tribe put into winning that challenge. To have it mean nothing? That just leaves a really bad taste.
