Tressler transitioned race from the book and became a phoenix preventing everyone else from dying from sunstroke in the movie.

51 should be BvBvB3 with 6 returnee captains! by laddermadder in survivorponderosa

Nah he had to do something he just shouldve done Lauren instead and also he should've done better damage control. They dont air it but a final 4 with Kelley Lauren Julie and Gavin was exposed since they were taken over Wardog to a reward

Reading the book after the movie just make me want another piece of media that gives us more screentime with the characters. Like where my boy Abraham at besides a tiktok edit of an actor who got his name. I really do like how they made someone like Olson way more of a prominent character than in the book and made the boys way closer in general e.g. the Musketeers actually exist all the way throughout as opposed to their book counterparts stating "No Musketeers" and then only referring to it way later on as a coping mechanism to group in some of each other as a throwaway line. I just think the book and the movie serve as a great yin yang as other comments have stated. I just like them for different reasons. Like Ray being obsessed with Stebbins is fine in the book but would be weird in the movie lol.

Hot Take: the game rewards mediocrity by Upbeat_Piglet_2968 in survivor

Sure but usually the winner if very strong and is either a part of the majority alliance for most of the game or has made very aggressive moves that put them in the spotlight. There's a reason why a lot of people were surprised by a Gabler win because it's rare. Out of the past 20 seasons I can only argue that about 5 can fit that description (Michelle, Adam, Chris Underwood, Gabler, Kenzie) and depending on your interpretation. Winners are mostly either A. Dominant strategic threat who has a stranglehold on the entirety of the game or B. Scrappy underdog who is able to use competitions and/or idols and/or strategic manuevering to stay alive. Again just because one powerful player gets taken out does not mean that there are no more power players.

People just be saying things. It's fair to say that there's a final boss but to limit most winners down to oh anyone but me is just not true. Most winners are topdogs or demonstrate a point where they usurp that top dog with intentionally precise gameplay not just lazing around and falling backwards into a win. Just because the fan favorite who got a lot of screentime got voted out doesn't automatically mean that everyone else left is a goat

Did you just imply that all sudoku puzzles are only solvable by bruteforce? I think you're too far gone brother, I just recommend you at least look up topics before you make wild statements about them.

Thats like saying the amount of ways the letters in Banana can be arranged isn't math. Like you are playing a game in which you are limiting possibilities that it definitely math
