- In the case of multiple tribes or castaways who win reward or immunity, they are listed in order of finish, or alphabetically where it was a team effort; where one castaway won and invited others, the invitees are in brackets.
^1 : The challenge was a combined reward and immunity challenge. In addition, Puka Puka received an additional reward for coming in first.
^2 : The challenge was a combined reward and immunity challenge. Puka Puka and Rarotonga tied for first and both won reward.
^3 : There was no reward challenge in Episode 3 due to the tribe merger.
^4 : As another twist to Aitutaki winning reward, they were allowed to "kidnap" one of Rarotonga's members. They selected Nate and he was granted immunity but could not vote.
^5 : This was a double elimination episode and thus there was no immunity challenge and nobody was exiled.
^6 : There was no reward challenge in Episode 11 due to the tribal merger and nobody was exiled.
^7 : Instead of a Reward Challenge, there was a Survivor Auction where Becky won the right to send someone to Exile Island and chose Candice.
^8 : In this challenge, the Top 3 finishers got to go for the reward. Ozzy placed first, Parvati was second and Yul was third.
^9 : Sundra lost to Becky in fire-making tiebreaker challenge.

Famous quotes containing the word game:
“The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art ... is merely romantic fiction.... The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“The family environment in which your children are growing up is different from that in which you grew up. The decisions our parents made and the strategies they used were developed in a different context from what we face today, even if the “content” of the problem is the same. It is a mistake to think that our own experience as children and adolescents will give us all we need to help our children. The rules of the game have changed.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
