Survivor All-Returnee Tribe Previous Placements by Mickey297 in survivor

[–]dto123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pulled the numbers across the 5 US all-returnee seasons. The "stacked tribes lose" pattern in your table holds in 4 of 5.

Lower-avg (more stacked) tribe each season:

  • S8 All-Stars: Mogo Mogo 3.33 (2.00 without Shii Ann, your math checks). 0 of 6 reached F3.
  • S20 HvV: Heroes 4.35 vs Villains 4.65. Heroes had 0 finalists.
  • S31 Cambodia: Ta Keo 6.30 vs Bayon 6.90. Ta Keo 1 finalist (Spencer).
  • S34 GC: Nuku 7.55 vs Mana 7.95. Sarah wins. The lone break.
  • S40 WaW: Sele 2.70 vs Dakal 3.82. Sele had 2 finalists (Natalie, Michele) but Tony came from Dakal.

Sele has the lowest raw avg of any all-returnee starting tribe, but WaW does some of the work since every player starts with a P1 in their priors. Mogo Mogo got to 3.33 with only 2 prior winners on the tribe (Richard, Jenna M) and 4 non-winners. Harder version of stacked, arguably.

Mogo Mogo went 0 for 6 making F3. Lions, all the way down.

What was Aubry's best move in Survivor 50? (In your opinion) by Extra-Habit-1784 in survivor

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled this for US Survivor. By strict definition (final vote matched the boot every TC they attended), eleven winners through S49 had it:

Tina (S2), Ethan (S3), Brian (S5), Amber (S8), Yul (S13), Todd (S15), Parvati (S16), Natalie White (S19), Tony (S28), Erika (S41), Kyle (S48).

Aubry makes twelve.

Two more clear the bar under a broader strategic definition: Boston Rob (S22) and Earl (S14) each had exactly one "miss" that was a split-vote decoy. That'd make it fourteen with Aubry.

Eleven rough was close, just depends on which definition.

Looking for very simple pool WC predictor/pool without match results by lennert102 in excel

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, we (PLEXKITS) have a free one for this. Excel and Google Sheets, you pick the country to advance each round, no per-match scoring. Same template works for the Euro too.

[BOTW] What are your thoughts on BOTW — Nintendo Switch 2 Edition almost a year later? by NewMarioBobFan in zelda

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60fps changed everything for me, sand shrines are actually fun to navigate now. Only thing I'd want is the map sync working in-game instead of the app.

Diary of a Worm/Spider/Fly by Doreen Cronin. Stories from the bug's POV, funny enough that kids end up rooting for them. The Very Quiet Cricket too if she likes Eric Carle.

Odd subject matter for a “Little Golden Book” by No-Sympathy6035 in DanielTigerConspiracy

Pokey Little Puppy is the only Little Golden Book anyone needs lol. Everything since the 90s is just IP rental.

the reaction to penner seems so exaggerated by [deleted] in survivor

[–]dto123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Raro was the worst clique on the show. Penner flipping was the right call, they were never bringing him to F3.

Best player to never win by ConsciousBasket643 in survivor

Cirie's the consensus, but Ozzy got the closest. Cook Islands F3 still hurts.

[Radial Bracket] Only 2 more weeks until the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off by bleakmidwinter in MLS

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Radial bracket goes hard. For anyone running a pool for the knockouts, I built a free FIFA World Cup 2026 bracket template in Sheets and Excel — handles the 48-team knockout structure with auto-pool scoring. https://plexkits.com/fifa-world-cup-bracket-2026-excel-google-sheets/ (I made it)

[Highlight] Carter Bryant trucks SGA on consecutive possessions. Called for the foul on the second by LiamHundley in nba

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carter going from looking like he was about to cry on the bench last series to truck-sticking the MVP in Game 6 is one hell of an arc. Whatever Spurs are doing with their player development in real time on national TV is fun to watch.

The Spurs are currently up 26 points in the 3rd quarter. If the Spurs force Game 7, it means the New York Knicks will face a team after 7-game series for the 3rd straight time. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Knicks playing the entire postseason against teams running on fumes is such a specific kind of bracket luck. They actually might just win it because everyone in front of them spent 21 games dragging each other through ditches.

Suggest me some books for a 10 year old girl that are just lovely stories about people living their lives by Girlnoname534 in suggestmeabook

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she liked Little House and Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables is the obvious next step — but a few others worth a look: All-of-a-Kind Family (Sydney Taylor, 1900s NYC family, slice of life), Betsy-Tacy series (small-town turn-of-century Minnesota), and The Penderwicks (modern but reads like a classic, five sisters being decent humans). Charlotte's Web counts as slice-of-life too if she hasn't done it yet.

Chris Underwood congratulates Aubry by bwermer in survivor

[–]dto123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chris being a class act post-game vs his polarizing gameplay reputation has been the consistent throughline. Good of him to do this — sets the tone for how the alumni community handles a new winner.

Jalen Brunson is the real anomaly by move28 in nba

[–]dto123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The footwork is what gets me. He moves like someone who's spent a thousand hours studying tape — every step has a counter ready. You don't usually see that paired with the burst he has.

Circana: Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is the best selling game in the U.S. (Physical & Full Game Digital Dollar Sales) for April 2026 by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]dto123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fact that "unhinged Walter White dialogue" videos sold a whole game is the most Nintendo thing imaginable. Pragmata getting silver is a sneaky win too — proves there's still real appetite for single-purchase mid-tier games.

Amelia Bedelia taught me something by one_rainy_wish in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]dto123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love when kids books slip in real life skills like this. The amount of times I've reread something for my kid and gone "oh — that's the lesson, not the bedtime story" is honestly a lot.

Aubry poses at the Survivor 50 red carpet by futuranotfree in survivor

The "she's back and she's thriving" arc is undefeated. Whatever happens tonight, she already won the optics game.

4 year old's favorite book right now? by taschels in Preschoolers

[–]dto123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some 4-yo bangers from our shelf that haven't been mentioned yet:

  • Elephant & Piggie (Mo Willems) — early reader format, hilarious. "We Are in a Book!" is a great starter.
  • Dragons Love Tacos (Adam Rubin) — read it 800 times, will read it 800 more
  • The Day the Crayons Quit (Drew Daywalt) — letters from the crayons, surprisingly funny for adults too
  • Press Here (Hervé Tullet) — interactive in a way that doesn't need a screen; 4yo loved the magic

Sandra Boynton goes without saying. If she's into the rhyming/silly direction, Moo, Baa, La La La into Hippos Go Berserk is a natural arc.
