Probst went on to explain the mechanics of the vote casting.
"Here's how this is going to work—you vote up until the first hour of the finale when we're live [May 20]. We're in Los Angeles, we kick off the show, we start running that last episode. And for an hour, the polls are still open," he said.
"Then they close. Then we finish this season, we have a reunion show, and in the audience will be the 32 people with their suitcases ready to go," he added.
The 20 final competitors (consist of 10 men and 10 women) will then be announced during the live reunion show.
