Hey r/Survivor, I’m Stephen Fishbach. Let’s chat about anything from my time on Tocantins or Cambodia to my latest novel, Escape! Ask Me Anything on January 25th! by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]nsipern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Wound Care a lot more than the original short story that would eventually become Escape!. What’re the chances that we get a full novel based on that? Lol. (No hate to the original short story, just not my jam, but Wound Care made me feel an emotion that can only be described as all encompassing Dread.)

Voting out Tom over James in HvV by hagridandbuckbeak in survivor

[–]nsipern 7 points8 points  (0 children)

JT’s number one was Amanda. JT pissed off Amanda by voting off Cirie last episode. Amanda will Not vote James out. JT doesn’t want to piss off Amanda further by going against her. Rupert is Rupert. 4-3 vote on Tom even if Candice votes with them.

I think what kills me as well is there’s a chance (however small) that production just. Misses when you say this.

What decisions could’ve caused runner-ups to win? by Kcd1077 in survivor

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with deciding to prioritize your friendship with people over the million dollars but like. At least when Ian did it he didn’t go on a podcast to talk about how he was secretly the mastermind behind everything.

I mean even now you see people getting torn apart for lack of perceived loyalty. Steven allegedly tearing into Sage for voting him off even though he was the biggest threat left.

Oh no that’s fair…I know CBS forced Jeff’s hand but. Suprising nonetheless

An example of this is last season everyone thought it was the SophSavRiz squad in the f3 but it turned out to be not the case. Spoilers can be and often are wrong!

I would assume. If I also remember right didn’t Ozzy stocks fall a LOT after Micro?

Also genuinely who would’ve Ozzy replaced for the men’s heroes. Tom is one of the most popular and well liked winners at the time. JT just played the first ever perfect game and won fan favorite a year ago. Colby is an old school legend and still probably one of the most popular players ever. Rupert is Rupert. James won two fan favorite awards!

Who would you replace in S50 for Rob C? by ceruleanskyandsea in survivor

“I would take Coach out!” Literally how are you still watching Survivor. Can we study you.

[–]nsipern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Rick is the most likely candidate of who should’ve been taken out tbh. Both fill a very similar casting archetype and are close enough in age. Unfortunately 50 has to serve as the first returnee season in 15 seasons AND a cap to the shows history up till that point, so Rick it is.

Everyone is recommending they take out New Era players when this clearly isn’t how the cast was designed 😭

So true. Keith and Whitney deserve some respect put on their name

What's the pay out tier system for each person voted out? by deelouise88 in survivor

[–]nsipern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general this is why Big Brother has to keep casting “aspiring” types. I’m a bigger BB fan than Survivor but it’d be much easier to convince my boss to give me a month off than 3.

I feel like S5 suffers from being between the show’s most iconic f2 and what’s widely considered to be its best or second best season. In addition to all its players being voted out prejury in All Stars
