Wow. I completely lost it at the double tie. It's sad to see a favorite go, but I find it to be a good way for him to go down. I wouldn't want to see him get taken out because of alliances, betrayals, or favoritism.

Most of the season 2 cast aren't as memorable as the season 1 cast as well. I can easily recall Sunggyu, Poong, Kyungran, Jungmoon, Changyeop, Kim Gura, and simple (only name I can't remember).

I really love how everyone is comfortable and immersed in their role.  Other than the obvious evidence pointing at Jinho, I am starting to believe that his attempts to persuade the others will continue to backfire in future episodes.

As much I loved seeing this guy fall, I really would like to see him be more humble like he acted during his outro interview and kick some rear end, I am sucker for "redemption" arcs like that. He's pretty much my first interest going into the third season and I'm a sucker for the story he'll make in this season whether or not he can redeem himself. Speaking of the third season, Bumdidlyump's twitter just listed the participants of the third season.

I just missed the subbed teaser videos by Bumdidlyumptious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnIwHLshaGM The producers really know how to make a teaser video because I really can't wait and I'm excited just by watching this one clip. Watching Hweejong dial-up his survival instincts up to eleven makes me smile

I might be too quick to judge, but as much as I like Jang Dongmin in Abnormal Summit, it feels like he has some potential to form alliances and/or cause disruptions. That aside, I think it's better to remain neutral and open to all the new faces and find a favorite through each episode. I do wonder if one of the ladies will be a fearsome noona like Kyungran in S1.

I'm not sure if it's intended by the translation or if it's close to the meaning of what he's saying, but Kim Junghoon seems really arrogant about S3's cast. Compared to S1, any subsequent participants of The Genius will definitely have knowledge from prior seasons. S3's cast may be smarter, but they're not going in blind. S1 will always be the best season, in my opinion, because of how they had to develop socially, intellectually as well as having the cunning, wisdom, and/or game sense to get through each challenge. If his arrogance keeps shining through, then I might have found the guy I want to see eliminated, unless he can actually be impressive enough to back up that arrogance. vv That might be the case. I might reading into it too much. I'll be taking another look at the video because it's been a while since I've last seen it. edit again: Actually you're right, he was humble during the player introductions.

The cast is definitely better this season. Besides Hweejong, I'm excited about the lawyer. He didn't stand out in Crime Scene, but I like how he appeared in this episode of The Genius. What I liked was how he agreed to the other alliance's proposition. He was able to grasp their situation and their offer, knew what result it would have for him, and then took it for goodwill and for a better reputation. Instead of going for the other offer, he chose to help three people that were in danger instead of helping one person making deals everywhere. It's great to see someone be able to make a sound decision without having second thoughts or looking like a buffoon. I can't wait to see how well he does in the next game because he looked excited in the preview.

It might be the way the first episode was edited, but Hyunmin rubbed me the wrong way as well. It's likely because it looked like he is putting his hands into every jar available that may be advantageous to him. A couple more episodes might reveal his personality, but as it is now he's just Poong without the personality.

Oh man, the opposing leader hosed up big time by making a sudden decision to meet up after the vote instead of making an observation. Why do the editors have to make it sad every time someone gets eliminated  I was concerned about Dongmin at first when he was announced for Season 3, but he has grown onto me because of his active participation in the games and not being a huge goofball. I really want to see a BTS of Yongsuk having a talk with the other cast because holy poo poo.

I have the same feeling as well. On one hand, this game can be interesting if it had more skill cards than players participating in it. That would allow the last player a choice and not be restricted to a weak card. Heck, add a wild card option that has an unknown skill in the pool of cards, only to be revealed when it's chosen. It's just not very dynamic when there's a clear result already decided with no way for the losers a chance to affect the outcome. Maybe if this game was played at a later episode with the same number of cards, then it could have been played out better. I'm still looking forward to how the next episode pans out because of the black garnets in the field now.

Ahyoung is the one of the best even though she is not the brightest. She's always having a blast while nearly everyone else is serious. Dongmin looked scary when he's really deep into thought. Dongmin owns and he should always return to every The Genius seasons.

^^ he understands    Xoidanor posted:The black mission was absolutely ridiculous. Memorising 12 different names and which number they tie to in 30 seconds is a pretty tall order. The only trick I could think of beyond the surname trick was assigning the numbers 1-10 to my fingers from left to right and 11 and 12 to my respective closed fists in order to keep track of which is which without getting flustered. Quick memorization of the names seems like a bad idea. If I was in that position, I would've visualized a town in a 3x4 or 4x3 grid and assign each card in order. It may not be for everyone, but I would find it easier to remember something as if I'm going through that location. Something like "I went for a walk down the main street and walked passed a, b, and c. Across this street was d, e, and f. Further down was g, h, and i. In the alley I saw was j, k, and l."

That is definitely true once you take time into account and is a flaw with my idea. One of the issues I have with the verse system (because I did it a lot as a kid and I hated 90~% accuracy of my memorization) is how easy it is to jumble up the middle positions when you begin to lose focus. Maybe memorizing the beginning portion of the words in a sequence, then removing the beginning 3 and repeat the last 9 in a sequence. If the person memorizing is confident in remembering the first 3 of the sequence, then the next 9 words can take the focus and puts less pressure on memorizing the whole 12 sequence.

I'm glad Dongmin, Jinho, and Jiyoon are part of the cast. It's disappointing that Hyunmoo couldn't be a part of the cast, but Dongmin is suitable and should suffice. I didn't like Hyunmoo's character at first, but he grew onto me after watching through the whole season and, of course, Abnormal Summit. The dynamic will be different, but I'm be looking out for interactions between Dongmin and Jiyoon and Jinho. I'll be curious about Jang Jin because he is a movie director and I'm wondering what he'll bring to Crime Scene as an investigator.

This episode was a nice way to start. It was nice that they didn't throw the viewers or the cast knee-deep into a big case immediately and instead chose to get people reacquainted with the show and how it works by creating a case that was easy to understand. I loved the banter between Jiyoon, Dongmin, and Jinho Poor Dongmin. I was expecting a high mark for him, but it was funny when he got a lower score than Jinho.

NowonSA posted:Please make that the episode based in America or England The best part was how invested they are in winning. Jinho jumping around after the announcement had me laughing, but if that did not convince anyone how serious they take these games, then I don't know what will. I kind of wished the Director would be more playful to the act after Jinho kept calling him a nerd had me in stitches. I would've been behind the Director if he suddenly changed his persona after his past of being a criminal was revealed. Come on, act like a badass for once! It's a minor gripe, but I shouldn't be expecting amazing things from everyone.

Symbolic Butt posted:I didn't mind him at first, sure in the first episode he screwed up his ally in a questionable move, but I interpreted that as a failed attempt to play the game without considering the different atmosphere of season 3. This pretty much nails it for me. He wasn't playing to win when he came back as a guest instead of proving why he should have been able to be a contender in that season. He came back to intentionally to make people lose. I'm neutral when it comes to people's personality and tried to give him a chance, but he exposed himself and came off to be very insufferable. As for Jungmoon, at least she clowned on the S2 folks when she came on as a guest. I don't mind her coming back if she can keep that going and learned from her S1 experience.

MisterZimbu posted:Crime Scene S2E9 is up, by the way. I sided with the director after his deduction about the time delay, since it seemed the most convincing and plausible. The guard's testimony really threw me off, but the timing of the criminal leaving was too suspicious. I thought the lack of a section of rope still being attached to the belt was inconsistent, but the criminal could've tied the rope at their own balcony where it easily retrievable. If the rope was tied close to where it held the belt, then there would be the section of rope still attached to the belt.

The guests have all been great so far as well. Has there been any dud guests? I'm unable to recall anyone being a dud. Even the bald guy playing the corpse was great at his role! If only I could remember the director's name. He deserves some commendations because I'm sure people were expecting much from him since and how unknown he was to a lot of us. I'm glad I was on the neutral ground and was open to him being on the show. After his slow start, he started to become better as time went on.

I wouldn't mind if he appears once per season because of how good he is at questioning people. He's definitely miles apart from the cast when he interrogates them and I like how he can confidently question their motives very promptly. Even as a viewer and not as a cast or one being interrogated, I felt intimidated. It's a weird experience since I never expected a show like this to make me feel that way. It might not be a good experience for some people, but I like it. He also participated quite well for a guest. It was nice to see the perspective and the thought process of a professional compared to the cast.

I can imagine the writers and the staff adding additional notes for newer games. One definitely being, "Is this game Dongmin-proof?" Kyunghoon singlehandedly stopped the interest in exploiting the contents inside the game piece. If someone else discovered it and tried to think of the properties of the object inside of game piece, then they may have realized it could work with a magnet. As soon as Kyunghoon failed with it, everyone just immediately dismissed it as something revolutionary. Oh Kyunghoon, what can't you do?

In this week's match alone they could have earned 44 garnets and let the producers sort it out when everyone's tied for first place. Instead, they couldn't even get a mass garnet earning plan to go through for one round. I wouldn't worry about a "let's get garnets" strategy being effective, since it hasn't really been effective aside from a bare minimum of cooperation in the first main match.

It's very ambiguous but I'm leaning towards Bumdi being a male because I've seen his previous profile picture used by a random person I encountered before in a Kakao game (에브리타운/Everytown) a few years ago. There were also the usual flavor text that Korean shows have in the picture. The fact that he/she has kept it ambiguous and has not revealed any personal details at all should mean they want to keep it private. I'll respect that and I won't dig past further than my own speculation.
