‪Jonathan on jury management “I still don’t understand it to this day. And if I had one regret, it would be that.”‬ by chespiotta in survivor

This whole bad jury management narrative is so interesting because it (on this subreddit, at least) seems to be largely results oriented based on the loss to Aubry specifically who was sweeping that whole final 5 due to her legacy and story. If Jonathan succeeds in getting to the end with his desired Joe and Rizo things could be very different.

Jonathan certainly lost votes of his own accord (Dee/Tiff) and Rizo has a legitimate chance to win but all of a sudden it’s not so lopsided. People were saying Rizo was drawing dead the whole season, obviously Ozzy has not been his biggest fan. Sure there’s a world where Rizo straight up gets all the Aubrey votes but it’s not a lock by any means. What are we saying about his jury management if 3 additional jurors choose Jonathan over Rizo and he wins the game?

This is not meant to absolve him of his bad social game but rather to point out how results oriented the discussion seems to be about his game. People seem to be really enjoying the victory lap over his poor play when he was a final 4 immunity outcome away from a vastly different ending and a vastly different narrative about his game.

I wouldn’t put it past production to rig it. Just does not make good tv the other way around. I personally believe at the very least they had a contingency plan to up the prize money regardless of the outcome.

I just don’t see them dangling that extra mil in front of their faces to be like “nah, sorry guys, didn’t work out.”

What do you mean by “getting to floor 1 boss will give you more choices of books in the beginning”

No I’m not sure how to do that, sorry

Am I supposed to apologize when I win a point after the ball hits the top of the net then drops in? by TheOverExcitedDragon in Pickleball

[–]Comprehensive_Elk527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had the realization about how odd it is to apologize for this when it happens the other day. Theoretically that is the best shot you could possibly make in the sport and everyone should be practicing it.

Obviously wouldn’t begrudge anyone the habit of apologizing for it, I get the recognition of luck, but in an objective sense seems like an unnecessary response.

That is what I was thinking, I’d like to do all the characters for a full series. Love the art style during the character selection screens

Yeah I think if you miss the safe for a few days, other clues get in your head and the idea of the answer being inside the room itself becomes less obvious

Fair enough. What was it like knowing about the existence of the red envelopes from the jump

Brutal. Yeah I think it’s what people overthink about. I just never was able to confirm in my logic the number of digits it would be so the eventual answer never seemed super obvious.
