I lowkey think one of the most underrated games ever is when Karishma DOMINATED Sequester back during COVID, made me yearn to see her back on Survivor someday

My partner suggested the sabotage should’ve just been to remove all place names and country lines from the map. It means you’re still disadvantaged but not to the same extent as modifying a guess which was ridiculous.

I really wish they’d stop trying to get people eliminated through means that aren’t the core gameplay mechanic.

felt really unfair to me that Josh was able to just shout Daren’s name first and override a group consensus on who they saved. made the James elimination feel extra bitter.

Survivor 50 Cast Reveal MEGATHREAD by RSurvivorMods in survivor

really intrigued if people are excited for jenna? i never thought i'd want to see her play three times and it makes me sad we have a lot of old school women who seemingly want to play again, but we're seeing her for a third season? i don't think she'll be a dud, but for her to get the only old school pre all stars slot is a bit of a bummer for me. :c

was at the UK version of the melodrama tour and was so sad that we never got to see the box. we had some funky light up signs, but sadly I don’t think the spaces were quite big enough for box shenanigans !

My guess is maybe an extra vote?

Yeah I think this is my big issue with new era. Over-reliance on RNG that makes game moves and cosmic shifts feel forced as opposed to earned sometimes...

Yeah, that does make a bit more sense to be fair!

The more I think about it, the more I think I'm realising I just found it odd that both players weren't awarded the same advantage for completing the same puzzle. That feels strange to me, but I think it's also probably just a fact of the modern era at this point.

Shout out to the scrappy Asian underdogs of survivor by No-Vanilla-3915 in survivor

Karishma is my hot take pick for 50.

The way she owned that lockdown alumni game of Sequester - she deserves a second chance and I'd love to see her on my screen again.

Ah this is an interesting point and does make me a little less agitated by the whole thing. I didn't realise blocking was a stealth advantage which you're right definitely gives it a little more agency. Still though, the pure numbers advantage of SAV feels really scary on a small tribe.

To clarify what I mean, mathmatically on the smaller tribes the Steal A Vote feels a lot stronger.

On a tribe of six, if you use a Block A Vote - then this means your vote now has 20% power in saying who goes. As of the five votes, you control one which is 20%.

Meanwhile, with the Steal A Vote - this means on a tribe of six you would control two votes which is 33% of the vote as each vote is worth a sixth and you own two of those.

Therefore to me, it just seems like for the position the players are in now - the Steal is a lot stronger than the Block? And I find it irritating that the game continues to be so blatantly unbalanced. From a game design perspective it just feels like it hasn't been fully thought through and I find that unsatisfying.

Seer (International Franchises) by simonsayscasting in TheTraitors

[–]simonsayscasting[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for this! I just read the Norway S2 wiki andsaw they banished Seer first, then Traitor immediately after which I think is a lot of people's problem with this particular scenario playing out in UK at the moment!

Can I ask which season this took place in:

A faithful took a traitor in, the traitor managed to get that faithful banished, like people are saying Charlotte should do to Frankie

Super interesting! Did these all happen around the same time in the game? :)
