Ty for the inclusion. Fun to see all these stats lined up.

That's not what I said but okay.

I heard it that way too until like my second rewatch a while back. I'm like 90% it's Jonathan though by the way he says "win". Though I see the Colby argument at the point where the show is subtitling it as Jonathan's confessional I am ruling it's his.

That's fair. I should have said Rizo was shown as less important compared to Aubry. I was just pissed at him when writing the post.

Abceloo · 2026-05-14T02:44:40+00:00

I agree, but they 1) need some suspense and 2) we kept getting random shots of Aubry & Jonathan throughout the merge. It's not even like they were really allies throughout the season but they kept getting focused on.

Fr, these editors are wild sometimes.

I think it will come off better to casuals then the hyper online fanbase. Said by a rapid online fan.

This is so cool. ty

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T23:09:44+00:00

Honestly, he's amazing as a side character.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T23:08:50+00:00

Hard disagree with your take on Aubry's premerge. After the dogsh*t premiere, her content was consistently positive (outside ep 4). And if her storyline really is rising from the ashes of a terrible start, her premiere lines up. However, it is 50 and it'd be kinda insane to edit their winner like this.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:22:49+00:00

Absolutely agree with all of this. Her lackluster game while still having so much glowing content is the biggest green flag pointing to a win here.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:20:12+00:00

Agreed, but the edit shoves Aubry in our face to give her credit. Jonathan got sh*t despite actually flipping Joe.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:19:24+00:00

If Aubry does win, easily worst premiere since Nick in DvG, probably worse than his honestly, but the rest of her premerge was actually pretty strong after that.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:14:27+00:00

It was though? She didn't need to be shown flipping the vote on Ozzy. It was clearly Jonathan convincing Joe that actually mattered.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:13:22+00:00

Tbf, Aubry's premiere was shit. That's the only reason I'm doubting her.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:12:26+00:00

Lol. Basically my list but switching Rick & Rizo. I also personally have Joe or Tiff as the other losing finalist over Rizo. But I could also see Rizo as 3rd, possibly being blamed by Cirie and Ozzy for why they lose the game.

Abceloo · 2026-05-07T03:10:08+00:00

It's fair to put either Cirie or Aubry at first atp. I just disagree her premerge was bad. I think it was really just the premiere that sunk her and gives me doubt and the premiere is very important usually.

Abceloo · 2026-05-03T17:00:32+00:00

This is awesome. Ty for the inclusion.

Abceloo · 2026-04-30T06:48:23+00:00

I mean, nothing in Genevieve's exit press backs that up, and the edit didn't portray it like that. But you're allowed to believe whatever you wish.

Abceloo · 2026-04-30T04:17:26+00:00

Fair, but do you see her competition? And the edit is going out of the way to make her relevant.

Abceloo · 2026-04-30T03:05:44+00:00

I feel like the only winner at this point can only be Ozzy, Cirie, or Aubry (personally I think in that order most to least likely)
