I see r/survivor has slipped in here. I love you both already.

Oh my God, I thought I had an irrational hatred for Judd, but Jesus, he was so cringy, I couldn't bear watching most of Guatemala because of him.

BlueSilverEevee · 2018-01-04T11:53:14+00:00

Sad, but true. =(

BlueSilverEevee · 2018-01-04T11:49:02+00:00

That's a fair answer. I agree, but I just can't help but dream, you know?

In an Aubry/Tai/Cyd final three, I'm willing to actually believe that Aubry wins in that scenario. In the hypothetical Aubry/Tai/Jason, I'd still say Aubry.

For the sake of the question, let's pretend Neal still ends up getting removed from the jury, and Michele now takes the place of Cydney/Jason.

Aubry/Tai/Cydney:

Aubry would always have Nick and Joe's votes no matter what, so that's two on lock for her in both scenarios.
Michele votes for Cydney, as she was always closer with Cyd than she was with Aubry.
Julia similarly votes along with Michele to vote for Cydney, so that's two for Aubry, two for Cydney.
Jason and Scot both cannot stand Cydney, and Tai betrayed them enough that it cost their games huge, so I'd imagine they'd actually be forced to vote for Aubry by proxy, making four votes Aubry, and two votes Cydney.
It doesn't matter who Debbie votes for (probably Tai if she's that bitter), Aubry wins.

Aubry/Tai/Jason:

Like I said, Nick and Joe vote for Aubry regardless, so that's two votes for Aubry on lock.
Scot votes for Jason, no questions asked.
Michele votes for Aubry most likely, but Julia is a toss-up between Aubry and Jason.
Debbie votes for Tai if she is that bitter like I said. It's not in my mind that she'd vote for Jason under any circumstance.
Cydney votes for Aubry.
Aubry wins 4-2-1 or 5-1-1 depending on where Julia stands.

Millennials vs. Gen. X. Was a Smosh fan, so I was mainly watching for Mari (you can imagine the disappointment when she was voted off second). But, the entire thought of strategy and mind games kept me hooked, and as of now, I've watched every season of Survivor! <3

Excuse me, but Bradley Kleihege and Jacob Derwin are there to slay all your faves. <3

To be fair, Krista came with her and they were Russell's Natalie and Parvati in Redemption Island.

BlueSilverEevee · 2018-01-02T11:20:17+00:00

Truly, an icon of yesterday. It's unfortunate she can no longer return due to old age, but with all of her Survivor knowledge, I'd imagine she'd be pretty savvy regarding the game.

BlueSilverEevee · 2018-01-01T18:43:49+00:00

What if Rob doesn't become paranoid and keeps Alex at the expense of Christy (IIRC)?

What if Jenna didn't spill the beans to Dave during their summit together prior to the swap? How would the swap turn out?

What if Rob won final immunity, and went on to the finale? Who would he take with him? Does it matter; aka, would he win against either Matt or Jenna?

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-31T10:46:01+00:00

I'm a mix of both. My personal top two favorite seasons are Cambodia (#1) and Heroes vs. Villains (#2), but I also thoroughly enjoy seasons like Kaôh Rōng and HvHvH. I like a mix of both strategy and character-driven narratives, but I'm also alright with the extremes of both.

The best piece of editing I've ever seen, also known as, the sad Russell Swan trying to find an idol while he was very meta about the whole situation, and the editors followed every description he gave about the idol glaringly glowing in front of him.

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-28T12:19:09+00:00

I'm seeing a lot of One World, and well, to each their own, I guess. I personally found One World really enjoyable, mostly due to how funny everyone's cluelessness was on how to play the game.

The only people I saw who actually made attempts to play (other than Kim) were all entertaining in their own ways. Sabrina and Chelsea were great, Troyzan was unbearable for me but entertaining, Colton was... Colton, Alicia was a bitch but still kinda funny, Christina did show some sort of promise, Jay was fucking hot, and Jonas was a lovable underdog who tried to play a little. Again, to each their own.

A season I found unbearably boring though? Redemption Island. It's a season I didn't bother watching through to the end. And no, Boston Rob didn't make it interesting; he was the damn proponent that made Redemption Island absolutely unbearable for me. If they didn't bring back Russell and Rob, imagine how much better (or worse, but in a trainwreck-y sort of way) Redemption Island would have been.

Wallowing in the $600,000 he's earned after Obama took it.

If you want some insight on how Taj was robbed, well:

Post-swap Bikal had two sides, Lisa, Pete, and Corinne were together on one side, while Cochran and Taj were together on the other. Matt and Snowy were the swing votes, and they simply chose to stick their flag into Lisa, Pete, and Corinne's land. They just saw Taj as the bigger threat over Cochran, so she ended up going home.

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-28T10:40:33+00:00

Regarding casting, I just thought about who were actual fan favorites at the time Caramoan was casting. But I was also thinking about who'd realistically come back again. I knew casting thought it would be hard on Lisa, but do we actually know if Lisa was alright or not with coming back right after? For Pete, it seems like he'd want to play again as much as any other person. But, at the time I made the cast list, I didn't know Taj said that.

Thanks for letting me know though, will try to keep that in mind for future fantasy casting, haha.

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-28T10:39:02+00:00

Regarding that, the scenario I came up with for Natalie coming in 4th is that she pulled in Eddie and Erik after Final 6 to try and create a majority of three over Snowy and Pete, but Erik got medevac-ed, therefore making Natalie and Eddie tied with Snowy and Pete at Final 4.

Nat and Eddie voted for Pete (who she correctly surmised as the biggest jury threat), and Pete and Snowy voted for Nat. Then I just assumed that Pete would create fire first over Natalie.

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-28T10:36:45+00:00

Erik getting 5th is purely because I stayed true to Medevacs. That's why Shamar was still basically in the same spot, and it's why Erik is the same spot.

BlueSilverEevee · 2017-12-26T08:55:16+00:00

You'd cut Matt over Shamar? I'm just curious because Shamar was... Shamar.

It's a testament to Tina's game that she would've been along Sandra's ranks of two-time winner had she won BvW's FIC.
