LET ME EXPLAIN TO YOU WHY YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING

ApplesandOranges posted:

I think the potential dark horse is a Ben/Lauren/Mike solid voting bloc. On paper it looks perfect - none of them would feel too threatened by each other, since they're all from different original tribes (thus reducing jury threat). They get along well. They can each present a good case at FTC - Ben's the most charismatic, Mike's the savviest, and Lauren has an underdog scrapper story. And they all know that taking anyone else like Chrissy or Joe to the end is too dangerous. If they can trust each other, it'd be a very hard group to break once they hit F6, and they can probably mask a tight bond long enough to whittle each side down.

If that's the case, then Ben and Lauren did the right move in knocking out a Healer - it'd prevent Mike from possibly getting swayed into staying Healer strong, and can mean he'll latch onto them as a lifeboat.

I'm half convinced now that's our F3: Ben/Mike/Lauren.

Man, it's asking a bit much to have a player perform some sleight of the hand in the voting booth just to get an advantage.

We've been on this slippery slope for a while but production is trying way too hard to generate compelling reward content here.

I think I like Lauren's advantage, though. It's a good iteration of the extra vote/vote steal mechanic.

Well, literally anybody but Ryan and Chrissy could have gotten the idol. That would have been a marked improvement.

Ryan pulling the idol just before JP walked over and then just standing back watching the chaos was great

Well I guess that's pretty much the only way that was going to go, given the edit.
