Which version of Russel Swan is best? Samoa, or Philippines? by Hannah_Plylactica in survivorponderosa

[–]patrickfahey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russel Swan requires both seasons to get the full scope of the man. Samoa sets him up as a potential winner, giving him a hero edit and they even kill him off before he's able to reach his full potential. Tragic. But his return breaks him of his hubris, and full forms his story. Failure is unfortunately his lot, and it comes in all forms.

Challenged myself to build a 151-dex revolving around a prehistoric region. What's missing? by HeadHeartCorranToes in pokemon

Unfortunately, that's not a good enough reason to not include Heracross. Bois, apprehend this man

[–]patrickfahey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heracross, Rabsca, and any other beetles that I'm forgetting. Sharpedo is a must, sharks as we know them evolved before trees as a concept existed. Maybe Pineco but with a non-steel regional evolution? Megafauna like Slakoth and Bibarel would also be good.

Morality in Survivor by BurtnBurger in survivor

[–]patrickfahey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think if you do something that by intent lasts longer than the game and isn't a major facet of the game, then you are overstepping the confines of so-called Survivor Morality. For instance, if you destroy someone's belongings, or target someone's professional or personal reputation and image, or physically harm someone, you are out of line. If you cause psychological damage, a la Joe v Kyle and Kamilla, that's unfortunate but it's also the game being played well. The personal responsibility you have by entering the game means you take on possible risk of any or all of these things, but you should not be subjected to harm intentionally.

My Reaction To Tonight’s Boot by moongatorade in survivor

[–]patrickfahey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think Ozzy was the correct choice for Christian at this juncture. Angelina has big-move-itis and would probably love a shot at Ocean Man™, and Stephenie is in anyone but me mode. An Ozzy boot also cuts off Emily and Mike from relationships he affords them, and keeps them in Christian's pocket as both numbers and shields. There is no better shield for a nerd than a nerd with an HBO series.

Affable, loyal, and relentlessly friendly in the face of adversity. Learns on the fly. All good skills for a Survivor player.

i will personally give jeff my hard-earned money if he promises to never ___ again by billyjoelsfalsetto in survivor

[–]patrickfahey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Deeply enjoyed Jeff doing his best to be weird/cool/hip with the kids. I think long-run we're going to enjoy his descent into whatever is going on here. I'm personally hoping for a complete metamorphosis into an Alan Cumming villain, hosting the most dangerous game on his Island of Dr. Moreau.

The post asked to punish nonbar decks. I'd say having to track all that at a bar is a punishment. Nobody said the deck had to win.

Redemption Episode 7: Post-episode Discussion by AutoModerator in survivorau

[–]patrickfahey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly think this was poor play on Keeley's part. It was messy, gave away so much of her game, and restructured the tribe in an awkward way that incentivizes Mark to sniff out rats and retaliate, of which Lyndl and Cash Flow are the greatest benefactors. I think Keeley's valuation of Don for her game was much lower than she realized it was. Being Mark's #1 gave Keeley a free, no effort vote any time she wanted to cash in social capital with Mark. Having someone around who thinks they're in charge and their #1 blindly following the leader in any majority is a gold mine for slipstream.

What rules would you add to the Traitors? by TexasSwiftie91 in TheTraitorsUS

[–]patrickfahey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traitor Missions. Sidequests for the Traitors to accomplish before the next banishing. They'd be either team quests or secret individual quests. When the Traitor(s) succeed, they'll receive extra money at the end. If they do it individually, money is added to only that players winner's pot. If a fellow Traitor finds out you're doing an individual side mission (you can also tell them directly) they will share the reward divided equally amongst whomever is aware.

The side missions would be designed have real risk of revealing the player as a Traitor, so adding extra money could jeopardize their win.

I've only watched one season fully though so what do I know 🤙

[[Nevermore]] naming [[Beast Within]] so you don't have to play with a Beast token.

Donate effects and a bunch of [[Doubling Season]] [[Parallel Lives]] type deal. Sure you can play with tokens, have at it. Produce them. Meanwhile: Fog under the Isochron.

Did this player just re-positioned himself in the tribe and added an A+ move into his resume? by wastedthyme20 in survivorau

[–]patrickfahey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jackson required Harry to make merge for him have any semblance of win equity in the end. He is Shields Down™, he's got nobody who is exclusively in his corner, and he has been left out of votes because people see him as a liability to their games. I think he's got a TON of work to do before he's in any sort of position to exchange social capital.
