Pony: Danni Poison: Ben I remember Danni playing a really smart understated social game in Guatemala - she went from being in the minority at the merge (and a perceived pair with public enemy number one!) to somehow convincing the majority alliance to vote out not-particularly-likeable players over her. She really impressed me!

STAC Goat posted:Yeah, I think t was an unquestionable proof of concept that EoE gave us Reem as a character and Devens with a second chance. Everyone dislikes that Chris came back late and won because the Jury all bonded with him and he didn't have to burn any of them, but we kind of forget that Devens was voted out pre-jury and ended up being the best player of the season. That was Victoria

I just realised they probably didn't get the fire token "give to another player" idea from the Genius, but from fan favourite Sierra Dawn Thomas giving her advantage to Sarah, and that bums me out.

A thing about Danni is that the other old timers did legitimately seem to not be including her in stuff - the trio of Rob/Parv/Ethan talking strategy this week also happened a bit last week that we saw. It wasn't wrong for her to surmise that she was on the bottom of that four, but going immediately nuclear in the way she did was whew.

STAC Goat posted:Call me a rube but I'm not terribly convinced they are pre-arranged. I mean, I'm sure the entire "pick a rock" thing can be entirely staged for TV and in reality they can be just sending them to corners. But have players like said that? Just because some splits and team ups were convenient doesn't mean it was all pre-arranged. Its a small group with a lot of connections. There were always going to be connections and stories. When Jeff passed out the buffs, they were wrapped but labeled with each person's name. He said "find your name and take it".

So Sandra selling her idol to Denise was a dumb overplay obviously I think Denise getting Sandra out is a bit of an overplay too? I don't know that she's in a better position with zero idols minus Sandra, a relationship with Jeremy, and a target, than she would have been with one idol minus Tony and relationships with Jeremy and Sandra.

Is there a potential returnee besides Yul that has obvious strong relationships among the remaining players? Maybe Parv+Michelle and Natalie+Jeremy? I don't know why anyone would be eager to keep Amber/Danni/Ethan/Tyson/Rob around.

SteveVizsla posted:Nick clarified on twitter that Parv had just told him that he was her father-in-law's favorite player ever, so he was probably trying to share back and it came out super awkwardly. Extremely harsh, given that her father-in-law's son played on Survivor.

Ben (very easily) found three HII in a row, which allowed him to cruise from 7 to 4 despite being everybody's target. And then, at four, when there were no longer any idols in play, the players were hit with the surprise "F4 is firemaking now" twist.

TMMadman posted:Question: At what point does the old school player start/stop? I mean Tyson was first on the 18th season. Should that really be considered old school? Or should it really be sort of a middle school, albeit maybe one of the first classes of that school. HvV is the midway point, I think that's fair.

Man the editing did not do a great job explaining where these players are at at all. I guess most of my questions are about Michelle? Why was she left out? Was she at all? If she was on the outs of the vote, what was her gameplan coming into the merge - Nick + Wendell + (???)? Who were the six people who decided on Wendell and not Adam and forced the vote? Denise and Sophie probably, but I have no clue who the other four are. Pinterest Mom fucked around with this message at 02:10 on Apr 2, 2020 |
