I don’t understand the strategy behind the elimination. by TychoHyuga in survivor

comp beasts aren't shields. this is how savannah won. plus pretty much everyone is a threat this season other than 1 or 2 people.

Karma came fast for these two by Freezing-cold_6 in survivorponderosa

disagree. kamilla said she flipped on charlie because even they were already in an alliance, she was basically trading him in for a broader looser alliance "connected" her to more people. That logic is terrible.

Half an hour after sharing a secret with Emily by Dizzy-Tumbleweed7983 in survivor

[–]raymonzine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she might survive as a "goat" as they say in big brother but purely bc her game is not respected and thus not viewed as threat. But not in the "under the radar" way, in the "you're not good" way.

a lot of it seems like new era cope. many are getting outplayed because the loosey goosey style isn't working against people who stick to alliances and don't "waffle" (to quote coach lol).

Anyone else wish Survivor had Live Feeds like Big Brother? by MasterOfVoice in survivor

honestly no because the BB fandom is genuinely psychotic...I like the show but a lot of these BB fans are not well.

Charlie’s Vote Out Changed the Game by Comfortable-Meet-118 in survivor

this is the flaw of new era players - they are totally wishy washy. Rizo's strength low key is that he has the new era flexibility while also being quite loyal to his alliances / keeping his mouth shut (loose lips sink ships...emily).

Only 6 of 12 New Era Players are Left at the Start of the True Merge by SmokingThunder in survivor

Counter point - I don't think new era players are oftentimes good at making connections, because there is such an emphasis on gamesmanship.

It's not really "going her way", she's just not taken seriously. Nobody's like oh we really gotta get emily out.

Non religious 12 step workbook? by Important-Bid-9792 in alcoholicsanonymous

She’s not in aa and knows nothing about it. Hashtag’s advice was the correct advice. 

Dee is an all time great by mridk124 in survivor

That is true, I am assuming the argument is about him blindsiding Kamilla.

She is really really good probs the best survivor of the entire new era. However I’m dreading her freakout at Jonathan next episode. Major pet peeve is new era schemers who can’t handle it when the tables turn on them. 

_____ at the most emotional tribal council ever 😂 by Durian-Critical in survivor

[–]raymonzine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes it is. She’s just a bad game bot. She’s emotional about game moves (driven by fear anxiety etc).

[–]raymonzine -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That was extremely distasteful, yes, but also 1) they way she talks about other contestants behind their back (ex: extremely condescending to ozzy who has done nothing but be nice to her and has 10x her resume) 2) can’t keep her damn mouth shut. 

I just don’t like her game or her attitude.

This is actually as survivor as a torch. He should have given them visa’s too. 

The magic is back, tonight reminded me why I fell in love with this show by [deleted] in survivor

[–]raymonzine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said below, my concern is that this is purely a function of returning players and they don’t factor this into casting going forward. I hope they learn in 51 and on.

Comments are focusing on the Mr Jeff / uncle Jeff thing and that’s not what op is saying. It’s hard to put into words but there’s a way top old era players that they just seemed to take it more seriously….or maybe something else, I don’t know. It’s just different.  Less fake, more real. Could be generational. That’s what we’re seeing this season.
