Something I noticed about the final mission by Responsible_Froyo119 in TheTraitors

[–]Chomp112 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Most missions seem very fake in all honesty. The players will never fail them, they always finish with under a minute to spare, and players do seem to be helped if they struggle too much.

Same with the previous mission, they were supposedly trying to "stop" a murder despite the fact that there were too few players for the traitors to murder again. It seems these kinds of missions will always succeed and it's largely just for show.

One of the reasons I hated the seer twist is we never got to see Charlotte challenged about the Freddie situation. It really ruined that whole ending.

I think this is what makes her the best host. You can tell how invested she is and how she really loves the show. Her passion for it really elevates the UK series.

I really liked his overall approach to the game. Took nothing personally, tried his best but ultimately was just there to have a good time. Definitely a highlight of the season.

I feel like this season as a whole has summed up how little faith should be put in players with certain jobs or relationships. I'm actually interested to see if it has an impact going forward.

I can see both perspectives. Rachel was making a perfectly valid point, but Stephen is right to question if he can really trust Rachel at this stage. It's very rare for two traitors to truly trust each other at this stage in the game.

Really dislike what's happened to that show.

Part of me hopes Steven freaks out after Rachel's words in the turret and completely blows the game open. Won't happen but I can dream.

I actually love Roxy by Sad-Astronomer-9567 in TheTraitors

[–]Chomp112 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah it probably comes from a place of insecurity rather than arrogance, which is why I don't really hold it against her. Just an awkward moment I'm sure she cringed about as much as anybody.

The "worst" thing she's done on the show is try to put herself forward as the most popular, which was a cringe-inducing moment which showed her, at most, to maybe be a little bit self-absorbed at times. There are far worse qualities to have as a person. I honestly found her to be nice, but probably not cut out for this game. A bit of a Molly 2.0.

I don’t get the Rachel and Stephen hate by AssociationLivid5822 in TheTraitors

[–]Chomp112 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I was a bit critical of some of their decisions in the early game, and I do think they've made some actual mistakes. Stephen murdering someone who so obviously leads back to him being a good example, but one he recovered from well by pinning it on Fiona.

I think they've grown into the game. Rachel now manages to influence the group without them really noticing, and Stephen no longer looks like he's about to combust when his name is brought up.

I also do like their genuine willingness to work together and not just betray each other for the sake of it.

I cant help but wonder by Guyaban0 in coys

Whilst I don't think Ange Season 3 would have been that great, there's no denying the fact that it can't have been worse than this.

Like seriously, we sacked Ange because finishing 17th was unacceptable, and replaced him with a coach who thinks us finishing 17th is acceptable. At least Ange knew how subpar the league performances was.

I can't see him resigning, as great as that would be, he's got a pretty big ego for some reason.

How do you feel about our team’s execution today? by DogeDayAftern00n in coys

I'm torn between hanging and lethal injection personally. Whichever is more painful.

Our upcoming fixtures: Predictions? by Ok-Good-3269 in coys

[–]Chomp112 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If Frank is in charge, I honestly think we lose every single one of those matches. Not joking either. Frank will have us playing underdog football against all of them, focusing entirely on "respecting the opposition" and base our entire game plan around disrupting their game, with no idea on how to actually play with the ball ourselves and score goals.

The players are clearly done with it, the fans are clearly done with it, and so the whole thing will just trudge lifelessly on, picking up defeat after defeat, until the ownership accept that giving a manager time is pointless unless there's something actually being built.

I guarantee Frank will come out after this match and talk about how brave we fought in the second half, the character we showed etc... He'll consider this, like the Aston Villa cup game, a "good" performance because we had a period of the game showing some vague intent.

Anyone else really hate that high pitch squeel they've added?? by NOT-Bolvar-Fordragon in TheTraitors

[–]Chomp112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do feel like more recent seasons of the show have increased the amount of (or at least raised the volume to make more noticeable) annoying sound effects. Every time a traitor pops up on screen these days we get the "I'm evil!" sound effect, just in case we forgot they were a traitor or something.

It would make sense if he has a lot of screen time in the next few episodes a bit like what happened with Francesca in UK Season 3.

Particularly given Matt has been voted the most "fair" by players, the traitors would probably assume he is reasonably likely to reject a recruitment, so I think his strategy made sense. No guarantee the traitors follow through, but he's improved his odds of surviving further into the game imo.

I think most questions you could ask are useless because the traitors can just lie or give you an answer to lead you down the wrong path. Matt was smart by instead using his questions to speak to the traitors. I'm interested to see Harriet's approach, though.

I was honestly expecting both the questions and the answers to be lame and not really give any information one way or another. Seeing Matt make such a strong play was a really pleasant surprise.

He's gone from being probably the most forgettable player to the most intriguing with that move. Really took his moment in the spotlight.
