I expect this game to be quick and bloody...any comments?

I hope so. That's what I was going for when I set it up.

With 35+ players, 20+ rounds, if each game isn't quick and bloody we are going to be very old before the tournament is over.

And, if the attack fails, a situation is created where there are two potential "victims" as both will (in all likelihood) have been weakened in the battle. The attackee, however strong he/she may have been in the beginning may end up losing the game.

Now you are getting it. See why I like this format so much? Truely anything can happen. And over the course of the tournament alomost anything will at one time or another.

Actually, I always "had" it.

Just commenting...

And I still stand by my opinions about alliances.

Nothing has really changed

Regardless of the size of the alliance, as Geo mentioned:

One thing that was proven time and time again in Survivor 1 was that your alliance is only as good as the weakest player in it.
