I thought of an idea that might be interesting but could backfire hugely...

Maybe make it so that every other episode new teams are picked (i.e. episodes with an odd number of people). One Team Captain (decided by a challenge?) would pick, followed by another Captain. The people they picked would pick next, and so on. The person not picked would be eliminated. All the other episodes would have a typical format, with an Immunity Challenge and Tribal Council. This new format would bring new powers to alliances and would make it somewhat more interesting in terms of "making big moves". Do you risk it and pick the person who everyone wants eliminated, or do you bend to your alliances wishes? After the merge it would return entirely to the standard theme. This could potentially be used in tandem with Redemption Island, though they should try it once without first.
