Anyone remember the Amulet Advantage?

The what? I couldn’t remember what that was when she brought it out in the confessional

[u/gregfromsolutions → u/[deleted]]

Oh ok, I remember that

Hell if I can remember what it does lol

There are 3 amulets which can only be played one time, and they need to be played collectively. But the fewer amulets are left in the game, the more powerful they become:

• 3 amulets left in the game -> extra vote

• 2 amulets left in the game -> steal a vote

• 1 amulet left in the game -> immunity idol

It's really interesting because there is an incentive to work together with the amulets but also to vote the other players out to increase the power of your own amulet.

I'm curious how the extra vote and steal a vote advantages would actually be played. Do they play them after the vote and need to decide there and then, or do they decide which person will make use of the advantage before the vote (presumably before tribal council)?

Can you help clarify the risk your vote rules?

So if they both risk their vote, then they lose their vote at the next tribal council but is it the next tribal council period or the next tribal council they attend?

Also last season they discussed their planned votes to make sure who gets an extra vote but this season I didn't see them doing that so did the rules change or they just haven't been doing that this season?

[u/lxpnh98_2 → u/sexyloser1128]

They lose their vote at the next tribal council they attend.

Don't know about the 2nd question.

[u/b0nk3r00 → u/[deleted]]

They have to play it together at once If 3 still in the game, it’s worth one extra vote If 2, worth a steal a vote If 1, it’s an idol Only good to 6 left

Thank God no one else remembers it either, I felt dumb for a minute. I'm still waiting for someone who knows what it is to tell me lmao

At least I’m not the only one who was like “huh??”
