* ↑ On day 11, a Tribal Council was held where the tribe unknowingly voted for a castaway to be swapped to the other tribe.
* ↑ Sango played a hidden immunity idol on Kimberly and Joel played a hidden immunity idol on himself; therefore, one vote against Kimberly and seven votes against Joel were not counted.
* ↑ Karine played a hidden immunity idol on Christophe; therefore, two votes cast against Christophe did not count.
* ↑ Karine's vote was blocked by Christophe at Tribal Council.
* ↑ Sandrine used an extra vote advantage, allowing her to cast two ballots during a single vote.
* ↑ Pierre-Alexandre was ejected from the game.
