Why do you think they only let idols be played up until the Final 6 in Heroes vs Villains and Nicaragua? Because the idea is that having more than 1 person up for elimination is a must.

All in all: There is no such thing as being eliminated by default. And that's definitely stated by the fact that it was allowed up only until the final 6 in various seasons of the real show. If you don't believe me, ask someone who would know (people I stated above).

Zion, just admit you made a mistake - I'd be lying if I said I haven't made any while hosting. Because Ian told me that he had already told you this several weeks ago. Technically, someone could be eliminated by default, it's never clearly stated, since it's never come to it. We have no idea if it's actually allowed or not, so until the time comes where a similar scenario arises, I say we just let it be. It was a pretty memorable tribal, I'd say.
