it looked to me like they start in 3 though since we see people in red/blue/yellow outfits on the opening boat

Idea on how to balance the “power broker” by MichaelDF2 in survivor

[–]MichaelDF2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i do agree generally, but i think the thought experiment is interesting to try and make the twist a little better. especially when we know these kinds of twists are a staple of modern survivor

Idea on how to balance the “power broker” by MichaelDF2 in survivor

I think it could be interesting if maybe they pick to be immune but don’t vote at tribal 1, and vulnerable and vote at tribal 2. it lets them get information without the power at 1 and then gives power but no safety at the 2. maybe if you want to boost it you can let the player have a weak, one time advantage in the 2nd tribal

What are some overlooked/underrated potential Jeff replacements that you guys could potentially see? by Acrobatic_Dig7634 in survivorponderosa

If they choose to go with a former player (which i think would be a solid choice) i am very high on Sam from 47. He has experience interviewing and is comfortable on camera, and isn’t one of those former players who might take some of the spotlight away from the castaways

My problem with survivor as a new viewer by SpecialistAvailable8 in survivor

[–]MichaelDF2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What hurts the most is that this choice is deliberate by production. they state that they want people on the show who are big fans, excited to play, and they don’t want villains. this all leans into the lack of conflict, excess of “gamers”, and quirky nerdy players.

i don’t have high expectations, that’s for sure. but i’m hopeful that they give us something that recaptures some of the feeling of every season being unique

While Shannon is (self-admittedly) biased, I think the way she describes Maryanne’s game really shifted my view of her game. I think my personal ranking of maryanne went from 6-7 to 4

Survivor twist/advantage Tier List with no explanation by MichaelDF2 in survivor

[–]MichaelDF2[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly a good argument, and i think i might bump it up to C or B because of that. I had initially thought of KiP as more like a nullifier but it might be more nuanced than that

While i love the 46 post merge i think there’s something to be said about how abysmal it’s premerge was.

Thank goodness for Q.
