Survivor: Gabon Trivia Questions

1. On Day 1, how were tribes chosen?

From Quiz
Survivor: Gabon

Answer: In a pick beginning with the oldest castaways

On Day 1, eighteen people from the United States were dropped into the jungle in nothing but their street clothes and led into the wilderness by Gabonese locals. Upon arriving in a rolling valley, they were asked to introduce themselves by name and occupation (real or false). After this, they were asked to pick out their oldest members (Bob and Gillian) who would begin the tribe selection process. They were allowed to pick anyone of any gender and their selections would make the next choices. Immediately after, they had their first challenge.

2. On the first night in the game who bumped their head while entering their hut and was treated by the medical team?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Randy

As Randy kneeled down to enter the hut he knocked his head against a sharp branch, the medical team was called in and gave Randy stitches.

3. The original buffs for this season of the competition were yellow and which other colour?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Red

Before the first challenge, the tribes were split into Kota (donning yellow buffs) and Fang (donning red). Immediately after, they needed to work together (or individually) to get through a course and to the top of a steep hill to win reward and Individual Immunity. Each tribe was eligible for Individual Immunities-- these were won by GC on Fang and Marcus on Kota. In addition, the first tribe to have all of the members cross the line would win an extra bag of corn and beans to add to their rations. Kota won and commenced a streak of subsequent victories.

4. In the tribal shuffle on day 10 who was Ken's pick to join the new Fang tribe?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Kelly

Seeing Kelly as the outsider of the previous Kota tribe, Ken chose her with the intention of bringing her to his side.

5. Which castaway visited Exile Island the most during the season?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Sugar

Over the course of the game's thirty-nine days, Sugar went to Exile Island a total of five times, all of which were before the tribal merge. She was the second person to visit and was sent each subsequent time, once as a result of a tribal switch on Day 10 and each other time as a selection from the opposing team. She visited so many teams early on in the competition that she nicknamed the location 'The Sugar Shack'. Bob visited twice after the merge.

6. In the immunity challenge "Cliff Bowling" who was the caller for Kota that fooled Ace into standing still so that the ball would roll right past him?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Randy

In the final round of the challenge, after Randy had successfully guided Dan to the Fang ball he called out to Ace who was making his way to the Kota ball telling him to freeze where he was, the ball rolled right into the 2 point goal allowing Kota to win the challenge 8-7.

7. Who found the Hidden Immunity Idol this season?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Sugar

This season, when a castaway was sent to Exile Island they were told that they could choose between a clue to the idol or comfort in the form of a private cabana containing fruit and a hammock. When Sugar went to Exile Island for the first time (as its second visitor) on Day 7, she followed the clues near-perfectly and located the Hidden Immunity Idol quite effectively. As a result she ended up sitting in the luxury of 'Eden' during all of her later visits. Because the idol was not used until late in the game, all later visitors to Exile Island were unable to claim an idol.

8. In the reward challenge "Snakes in the grass" where tribe members for each tribe were tethered to a 20 foot 200 pound snake and had to race around a course to catch the other tribe, who was the last person to drop out of the challenge?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Crystal

If a survivor became too tired to continue and was slowing the tribe down they could opt out of the challenge by untethering from the snake but in the process force their fellow tribemates to carry the extra weight. Crystal was the last person to drop out of the challenge, Susie was the second last while neither Bob nor Randy dropped out of the challenge.

9. How many castaways became jury members before the merge?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: One

Tribes experienced their first switch-up on Day 10. After ordering themselves by importance after a poll, they all dropped their buffs and the top person on each tribe (Marcus and Matty) ended up selecting new tribe members to mix the game up. On Day 22, the tribes met once again for a feast during which they anticipated a merge. They were, however, treated to another switch and Marcus was eliminated from the game. Before the Immunity Challenge on Day 26, the tribes merged; Marcus was the only person not from the merged tribe to end up on the jury.

10. How many votes did Susie recieve at the Kota tribal council when Dan was voted out?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: 3

Kota, having not lost an immunity challenge since the switch-up were forced to attend tribal council due to a double elimination. They came into this tribal council as seven and fearing Dan may have the immunity idol they split their votes 4-3 between Susie and him. Dan received votes from Susie, Bob, Charlie and Corinne while Susie received votes from Dan, Marcus and Randy.

11. When Fang and Kota merged, what name did they take on?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Nobag

On Day 27, Fang and Kota combined before their Immunity Challenge to form Nobag, named after their country for the season (Gabon), but backwards. Nobag donned a light blue buff. When the tribe finished their first challenge (won by Susie), they headed back to camp to get their customary merge feast and remained at the original Fang base. Nobag, at its start, had nine members; six of those castaways became jury members and three became finalists.

12. In the first individual immunity challenge where survivors had to build a fire who other than the winner of the challenge was the only person able to get a fire started?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Sugar

Susie was the first to make fire and won this challenge, Sugar had a good flame going but took longer to get it started. Nobody else got a flame going.

13. Who won most individual (post-merge) challenges?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Bob

After the merge on Day 27, the individual castaways competed in eight different challenges (and the auction). Two were Reward Challenges and six were for Individual Immunity. Bob won five challenges (both rewards and three immunities) while Susie won two and Ken won one. Bob actually won five consecutive challenges during the game (every challenge from Day 31 onwards except the final Immunity Challenge) and promised Ken immunity on Day 37, but held back at the last minute.

14. At the end of the 'Survivor' auction which contestant held the most money?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Kenny

Kenny had $660 at the end of the auction as a result of bidding on a note that gave him the right to send another contestant to exile island and take all their money. He bid $340 for the right leaving him with $160 before taking all $500 of Bob's and sending him to exile island. Crystal did not win any items and thus remained on $500 at the end of the auction and Matty bid $400 on a burger and fries leaving him with $100.

15. Who ultimately used the Hidden Immunity Idol to negate votes cast against them?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Matty

Heading to Tribal Council on Day 36, the remaining six members of Nobag tried to make their way to the next stage of the game. In an attempt to maintain certain alliances, Sugar handed her yet-to-be-used idol off to Matty to protect him from voting possibilities. When he presented the idol before the vote, it turned out that he did not need it; Crystal was eliminated four votes to two. Regardless, his two votes were wiped clean. This was the final Tribal Council in which the idol could be used, so Exile Island was retired following this event.

16. With seven contestants remaining who was not picked to participate in the reward challenge "Now or Never"?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: Corinne

The alliance of Ken, Matty, Susie, Crystal and Sugar stuck together through the picking of teams for the reward challenge. The final pick was up to Sugar and was between Bob and Corinne, since Sugar liked Bob and despised Corinne it was an obvious pick for her.

17. In the final immunity challenge "House of Cards", which was won by Susie, approximately how many feet tall was Matty's house of cards at the end of the challenge?

From Quiz "Survivor Gabon"

Answer: 7

Matty's house of cards was about 7 feet tall when the 30 minutes was up but it was not enough to beat Susie's 8 foot tall stack. Bob and Sugar's towers collapsed shortly before the challenge ended.

18. Who was the Sole Survivor of "Survivor: Gabon"?

From Quiz Survivor: Gabon

Answer: Bob

After thirty-nine days, a jury of seven cast their votes to give Bob the million dollar prize. This made Bob the oldest winner of the competition to date. During the final reveal of the votes, Bob ended up taking the nominations of four earlier castaways, all of whom were the first four to join the jury-- Marcus, Charlie, Randy, and Corinne. Susie received votes from Crystal, Ken, and Matty while Sugar, who didn't receive any votes during earlier Tribal Councils, also didn't receive any votes for the million either.
