precision posted:The divisional names never make sense, did we learn nothing from Heroes v Hustlers Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers. I agree with your point, the team divisions are arbitrary and inconsistent and primarily set up so Probst can riff on the differences and create conflicts.

Gabby referred to herself as "the nerd whisperer". She is playing Christian. As for his mannerisms, on last night's podcast Rob Cesternino described him as looking like "a mime trying to escape a bubble" which was perfect.

Propaganda Machine posted:I know this might seem odd, but think critically about what you get out of the Survivor grand prize. Are Survivor winners obligated to give money to a Democratic ex-president? Yes, it does seem odd to think that Mark Burnett would insist on that.

SLICK GOKU BABY posted:Jeff apparently didn't take any negotiation classes at all. Zesty posted:On RHAP, James Lim is describing the “Chore chart” production provided them for Ghost Island. James is quite smart, too bad he was recognized as a threat and voted out early. He and Rob go on for 20 minutes just on Angelina's deal-making. And they both agree that it doesn't matter what Angelina offered, because 1. Jeff holds all the power so it's not really a negotiation and as he's said before, "My life is fine." He doesn't need or want their fishing gear or anything else they possess back at camp. .And B. while they're discussing strategy and what they're willing to offer Probst, they're being filmed. The production crew can tell Probst all the details of their opening and final bids before the tribe has a chance to talk to him. Angelina might as well have asked, "Jeff, we need more rice, what do want in exchange? Name your price". And Rob says they got off lucky, Probst doesn't like to be interrupted when he's introducing a challenge, and could have demanded more people sit out, or something even more valuable/risky.

The Bloop posted:Hahahaha We could see the return of Goliath Strong alliance. Less biblical, more Greek tragedy. The Davids were outnumbered the entire game, fought and struggled and played idols and when they finally managed to gain advantage they threw it away.

Zesty posted:Are you dorks kidding me? Yeah it's not jealousy. The family visit reminds players that they have a life off the island. It was underlined for Gabby that Christian isn't her friend, they're competing with each other for $1 million. He wasn't consoling her out of sympathy, he was using her as an additional vote in his plans and a goat if she got to the end with him. IcePhoenix posted:OK so knowing that the final four has the fire challenge I think Allison is going to make it to final three because they randomly showed her easily starting a fire during a conversation. I'm pretty sure Devon was shown practicing or making fire. Then he lost the competition to Ben in HHH.

If Angelina is in F3 someone on the jury should bring a bag of rice from Ponderosa, hand it to her and say, "Okay now we're even, no more rice talk, nobody cares".

Spergatory posted:There's a great interview with Josh Wigler where Christian actually goes over some of the other stuff he said during the six hour challenge. Some of it was game related; he asked Probst if they were ever gonna do another auction again (he said probably not Natalie. That's what I get for staying up late to watch the reunion show and KIA then posting before I've finished a morning coffee. Returning player season idea: Mike White & team of returning players vs (wait for it...) Jack Black with a bunch of young people. Call the season School of Voting Block.

). The Reuben comment was actually part of a larger point about food temptations during challenges.

IcePhoenix posted:I think it speaks perfectly to the point she had that she and Mike were playing the same game and he was doing it better. Alison's still waiting to make a 'big move'. Alison puts down Angelina but at least the latter tried, and played hard. And Angelina did have a story arc of talking about how few women had found idols in the beginning of the game, then she managed to find one and make good use of it. So she had a lot of faults but that came around nicely. Mostly I remember Alison complaining, and being used by others for her vote. Fast Luck posted:
There are some who think Aubry could have or should have won over Michelle Fitzgerald, so I suppose this is her chance at redemption. I guess Joe and Kelly are the eye candy returnees. I wonder if the returning players will have some beginning immunity advantage because surely those 2 will be seen as huge threats in all aspects of the game and early targets.

Sand Monster posted:How did she make good use of it? She tried once again to act like an arrogant mastermind in a big production for the jury (I can't remember her exact words when getting up to play the idol but it was something like, "I have the votes for Alison anyway but I'm going to play this to be extra safe") which they saw right through, and also used the opportunity to pointlessly irritate someone that she's sending to the jury out of spite. Add into this the fact that she didn't find the idol herself -- while losing the clue and stranding herself on a ledge which resulted in somewhat of an emotional breakdown immediately thereafter that she tried to play off as injuring herself -- and required assistance from Nick and Mike to actually locate it. The entire episode is yet another summation of her horribly misguided gameplay and insufferable personality. At F5 Nick was safe. Without the idol, Alison Kara and Mike could have voted her out.

Spergatory posted:Well, I mean, they didn't, but still, I already admitted to being wrong about Mike White and that he played a game that garnered a lot of respect. For a professional writer Mike is incredibly bad at expressing his thoughts in complete coherent sentences. (To be fair he did say he was really hungover. ) A great line was when Rob asked if Mike wanted to complete the trifecta of CBS reality shows by going on Celebrity Big Brother and he said something along the lines of, "I like the adventure (of Survivor and TAR), there's nothing appealing about sitting on a sound stage in Burbank for so many weeks, eating crappy food. That's too much like my day job".

STAC Goat posted:Yeah, I think Mike just ultimately found it difficult to sell "I spent the entire game pretending to be someone else to gain your trust so I could get you to make the moves I want made and you'd get your throats cut while I'd stay in people's good graces so you should totally give me - a rich and successful millionaire - the million dollars and not this charming guy who played a pretty good game and who is digging himself up from nothing and a sad background story who also now helps people." He knew how it would look so he just kind of aborted. In a red carpet interview with Arisa Cox, Nick said no one knew he was a lawyer; he told them all he was a social worker. So his speech during F3 might have had more impact than if they'd known he was well-versed in making oratorical arguments to sway juries. ps don't know if anyone mentioned it but I loved the time after Nick had spoken to jury and Probst said, "Okay now let's hear from Mike" and Angelina piped up with, "I'ma let Mike talk but first I want to say..." and she basically hijacked the conversation. Classic Goliath move. Binary Logic fucked around with this message at 15:25 on Dec 22, 2018 |
