I’m not sure shat Lauren’s strategy of giving up all power was exactly.

I still can't believe Lauren offered up that she didn't have the extra vote advantage with her at tribal. Why would you not bring that?

Ben probably deserves to win for actually bothering to keep hunting idols, but having the game be based around idols continually bring recycled this late is just boring as poo poo

I like it because otherwise you get into boring Pagongings.

It would be if they put any sort of effort into hiding the drat things. Make some loving multi step clue finding involved.

Didn’t they do that earlier this season? Not sure why they made it easier post merge but whatever.

Because it all came about because a guy found an idol buried one inch deep under a clear marking at their camp

That nobody else found.

I doubt it was that blatant but they really did not put a whole lot of effort into hiding it.

They’ve all had a completely out of place logo where it was, but you still have to find it.

Devon’s gotta win at this point. Chrissy was a condescending rear end to everyone and Ryan was nothing more than her minion.

It’s a pretty bad final three if Ben is out but I think Chrissy should win purely for challenge dominance.

The rigging for Ben is just comical at this point. This is by far the worst season of this show.

My mom says this seems rigged. My mom, the most casual of casuals.

Future generations might actually look back on this as the moment Survivor jumped the shark.

Survivor jumped the shark like 15 years ago when the outcasts cane back on Pearl Islands.

What is Chrissy going on about mums for? Guess it worked on Ashley.

Man that reunion barely talked to any of the cast, even less than usual.

Chrissy was originally on the heroes tribe, because she was a mom. That's it. Her whole persona was "mom". I think she was second place no matter whether Ben or Devon were there because she rubbed too many people the wrong way and came off as phony.

Most of the people this season were pretty bad players. Ashley mentioned to Ryan that he never once talked strategy with her. Others said Ben never talked to them. How does that even happen? You have 24 hours a day with the same people and tons of downtime, how do you not know every single detail about everyone else?

If they had even done a "know your tribemates" trivia it would have been more rewarding than a fire making challenge.

I can't believe Devon was on board with Chrissy's idiotic plan to protect Ryan. No way in hell I'd go for that instead of convincing her that everyone on the jury hated Ben and he wouldn't win. She must have known she couldn't beat Devon.

You have no idea how much more I would respect Ben as a winner if he had clutched that final immunity. That way, he could at least say that he came through when it mattered most. But he didn't. He blew it, and then the game magically fell into his lap anyway.

I'm curious if Ben had won final immunity, who he would have done the fire challenge. Tough call, I would think Devon and Chrissy since Ryan was a goat. I think Devon may have beaten Ben, so possibly beefing that last immunity ended up being a good thing for him.

I was thinking more literally gross, like having to keep watch while people go to the bathroom and poo poo like that. Or even only letting people out of your sight if they have to use the restroom or whatever sounds uncomfortable to me. And I'm not sure what the watcher is supposed to do really. Ben already has demonstrated he'll dig for an idol in front of everyone. I guess the watcher can dive in and beat him to it. Maybe that is the solution, to also look for the idol extremely hard 24/7 too. But that sure does sound like a lot of energy to spend when you have little food and immunity challenges to win.

If Ben is out looking for an idol, you go out and look too.

“I have mental problems because I experienced the horrors of war” is a completely valid reason to say why you weren’t the best socially. Certainly better than “I ran the game through this other guy, believe me” or “I am a busy mom with a good memory.”
