Pirate Master episode 1 detailed Boot spoilers/ speculation
Pirates' Court    Cameron Daddo: "We have a Pirate's Court at the end of the day... where three pirates are marked with a black spot by the captain. And they have to defend themselves."

    Not having seen the show yet, it's not clear how strategy will go with these picks. Since teams are randomly assigned before each expedition, it would make some sense to target the players particularly ill-suited for pirating, since they have a 50-50 chance of dragging your team down on the next expedition. Then again, by the same logic, a particularly strong player has the same chance of leading the opposing team to the next treasure. But it's probably easier to convince the remaining crew to vote off a weak, rather than a strong player.

   With that in mind, the plethora of future footage allows us to eliminate all but a few people from consideration for the first elimination: Christian, Jay and John. Cheryl and Azmyth (above) obviously both make it through at least one Pirate's Court. All the others are shown on either a different team from their Ep1 assignment, or on teams with other people who are. (See below). Of those three, Jay and Christian were both on the winning team. While that doesn't exempt them from consideration, you'd think if they contributed at all, that would make it harder for their teammates to oust them. So the most likely candidate for dismissal would appear to be John, the scientist/ Chippendale dancer.

The white team     Of course, all of this still fails to address the presence of a third team color, white, in CBS's own ads (at right). From a Survivor perspective, there are two possibilities: a late-game, merged single team, or (ick) a team of previously-booted players, trying to get back in the game. We'd prefer to think the former, but you never know (unless someone has a sourced spoiler). Stay tuned to find out.
   So who's there on Team White? From left to right in the picture, we see Christian, Alexis, Joy (in the back), Joe Don/J.D. and either Sean or Jay (looks like Sean, but dressed like Jay). Plus at least one other person (barely visible) in the front of the boat.
