What would Puzzle Islands be without a simple plain old crossword puzzle? A simple plain old crossword puzzle with hints missing letters and having symbols substituted for others. Deciphered clues: 1. Host of the show (10) JEFF PROBST 2. Former softcore male porn star (11) BRIAN HEIDIK 3. Won sprint player of the game twice (12) JAMES CLEMENT 4. Lied about his grandma dying for sympathy (13) JONNY FAIRPLAY 5. Rats and snakes (9) SUSAN HAWK 6. This tribe won every Immunity Challenge (5) KOROR 7. His glasses are red hot (10) YAU MAN CHAN 8. This concept was first introduced in Survivor Palau (11) EXILE ISLAND 9. Was burnt during fire making challenge (13) MICHAEL SKUPIN 10. This man loves it in the buff (12) RICHARD HATCH

Well, it's fairly obvious that there's no vowels in the clues.
"!" is a stand-in for "n", "*" a stand-in for "s", and "#" a substitute for "t".
Now to update the clue list...

I like to think I know what I'm doing. And I hope what I'm doing is correct.
So, part of the clues are up. Anyone up for some Survivor trivia?

Oh and submit submit submit! done and done. EDIT: Think that's it? I think we're lucky we didn't have to remove the vowels or substitute the n, s, or t back in the grid to make the words fit.
