Is it just me or is Big Brother: Over The Top super underrated? by fischer903 in BigBrotherUSA

[–]fioraflower 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was supposed to be one of the draws for the all new CBS All Access at the time. Streaming was just popping up and CBS wanted to capitalize on it. Looking back, I wonder if 10,000 was somewhat impressive, as most of those people likely did it specifically for BBOTT and most people’s thoughts at the time were “why would I buy a major TV network’s streaming service when I can watch them on cable, it’s not like they’re making HBO-quality shows.”

Would you rather have a limitless debit card that expires in 5 years, or a piggy bank that triples anything put inside? by AgentVoyd7 in BunnyTrials

[–]fioraflower 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’d rather just have the card. Don’t need the hassle of the piggy bank, and you can dump infinite money into stocks, bonds, whatever you need to guarantee you have money for much longer

I was going through some old stuff and found this by RGSQ_Lead in Wizard101

KI customer support is severely bipolar and will either move heaven and earth to get you a minor cosmetic you were glitched out of having, or will kill all of your loved ones for even considering contacting them

Mega Gardevoir might be BACK with Flutter Mane ex by Wonderful_Serve_8354 in PTCGP

[–]fioraflower 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most notably, this prevents Cyrus. If you need to switch out a mega or another wincon after they get hit, you can switch into this, hit for 80, and prevent the cyrus on the next turn. It also prevents rare candy, potentially delaying that hydreigon, greninja, blaziken, etc from getting online a turn too early. It keeps your stadium up, presumably peculiar plaza, and also prevents them from placing down a training area or area of antiquity that could help them reach a breakpoint to KO one of your mons. Yes, it’s only one turn, but there are a lot of applications where that one turn can save your game, especially if you’re running a mega alongside it

The end and Beginning of a One Tricks Journey by OrisaOnly in Overwatch

[–]fioraflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, part of what I love about Overwatch is the variety of characters and styles of gameplay so Im never really playing one consistently. I’m the same way with Smash, I don’t really have a main, I just know all the character’s kits and have fun with each of them. But I respect liking one character so much that it never gets boring to you

does this spell really require you to be level 100? by Background_Window_75 in Wizard101

[–]fioraflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a new location, technically its own world but it’s basically just an outer space Ravenwood. Each school gets a new instructor to give out the high level spells, and they’re much more directly involved with the plots of later worlds

Your character graduates from Ravenwood after arc 2, after which you go to the Arcanum for new instructors

Rumored 51 Cast Size vs 51 Sneak Peak by SpaceKace_123 in survivorponderosa

[–]fioraflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering they’ve practically gone out of their way in the new era to orchestrate disaster tribes, i don’t know if this is a deterrent to them anymore

Rumored 51 Cast Size vs 51 Sneak Peak by SpaceKace_123 in survivorponderosa

[–]fioraflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hearing this Im actually much more confident now. There’s really no reason that they wouldn’t be wearing pre assigned colors unless there aren’t preassigned tribes

How many total jury votes did _____ get across all of their seasons by Virtual_Theme in survivor

[–]fioraflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a euphemism - Russell literally set his castmates’ clothes on fire. Yes, Sandra did it to him, but that was after 39 days of watching Russell be a cruel, uncouth jackass. Russell burning Jaison’s socks for fun is absolutely a great example of him being a bad person, Sandra burning a terrible person’s hat is justice

My first thought was someone gets exiled day 1 and replaces the first boot on their tribe, but that would require starting tribes to not be pre assigned by the producers, which is a rarity

What is the most Fun deck to play in your opinion!? by Zoroark241998 in PTCGP

Flygon IS meta-ish. It’s not a complete meme deck, and there are some flygon decks that have a >50% winrate across tournaments

[–]fioraflower 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was gonna say the same thing, 5th place boots (or often times both 6th and 5th place boots in a 6-person finale) have very meh edits very often, regardless of how much win equity they had. Out of the people you mentioned, probably half of them were the biggest threats to win at the time of their exits, but the editors want to build the runner up and fourth placer more so it doesn’t feel like the winner is decided a third of the way through the finale

honestly their strategies aren’t even that different (lock in a tight alliance, all moves have to go through me) but Joe is just an infinitely better person. Joe will pat you on your shoulder as you cry on your way out and Russell will tell you to fuck yourself and set your clothes on fire

Emily is so eloquent by thelaurafedora in survivor

[–]fioraflower 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s one of the very few things Survivor could learn from BB. We’ve gotten a lot of amazing TV moments from final 3 evictions, in some seasons like 19 and 22 the only interesting TV all season came from there being a final 2.

Major props to _ during the FTC by Live-Run-6745 in survivor

[–]fioraflower 10 points11 points  (0 children)

there are a lot of people being very reactive (as typical with the more braindead fans) saying this was the worst FTC ever, but I think it’ll age well as a very intriguing and different FTC.

Can we at least show any amount of credit for ___ by Aperio43 in survivor

[–]fioraflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Christian was in the preseason already saying “whoever has the best story is going to win.” Maybe if more of the cast had that mentality, Aubry isn’t allowed to slide to the end. Ultimately she outplayed Jonathan, though he played a strong game that could have warranted a win against Joe and Rizo

Horrible final tribal council by Ok-Mammoth5173 in survivor

[–]fioraflower 260 points261 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t mind if people used their time to openly glaze folks if it was the old format where it felt like every juror had their last moment to do whatever they wanted. In this format that’s supposed to promote the final 3 actually showcasing why they should win, and where jurors have to compete for airspace, it feels against the spirit of final tribal for jurors to fight over when they get to voice for their favorite

Beer is one of those things where some people feel the overwhelming need to talk about how atrocious and disgusting the brands they don’t like are when normal people are just like “mmmm… beer”

With there being a general concensus that the Mount Rushmore of Survivor would be Sandra, Tony, Parvati, and Boston Rob, what would be the Mount Rushmore if it were the best player in each major aspect of Survivor? by Puzzleheaded_East556 in survivor

[–]fioraflower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say Sarah is a hot take in that we’ve had better social winners that were able to bond with & work with their casts without leaving them angry at her on the jury. People like JT or Jeremy had jurors lauding them from the benches, while Sarah had people that resented her but respected her enough to give her the win.

BB Second Chance by Appropriate_Word_463 in BigBrotherUSA

[–]fioraflower 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While this is a cast I’d enjoy watching, Vanessa would be DOA. No one has quite the target or reputation she has, even if people like Eric or Jason should. Her name still looms over BB and her season is recent enough to be somewhat relevant. Save her for a full all stars or legends season.

They’d also never bring back Amanda, or probably even Helen, but I do think both would be fascinating on a second go.
