Who is the richest person to play? Jeff Kent?
I'd be shocked if he wasn't barring some crazy investments from Cliff Robinson. From straight league earnings we have Kent at $86M, Cliff Robinson at $61M, and Scott Pollard with a distant $38M. I don't have a good source but coaching and 20 years of TV money put Jimmy Johnson in the mix.

e: Forgot David Samson from the old Marlins management. That dude is loaded and crushes Jeff.

Christian is a character the producers like to feature rather than a guy destined for the finals. He seems more well rounded than previous nerds but I'm not sold.

I'm rooting for them but I don't see how the 3-3 alliance is viable against the safety of Pagonging. Maybe the 3 Goliaths are slick enough to protect the 3 Davids long enough to make a move.

Gabby didn't get the dodo music so she was on to something or it looked like a favorable strategic move. Could always be the narrator edit.

FWIW the edgic people latched onto Michele from the start. The specific content of the edit was wildly unsatisfying as a viewer. Some was bad luck (no Tribal for Michele until day 23) and some was the producers moving on to feature players fast tracked for returns. It is weird that even the producers seem to bag on Michele rather than blame a bitter jury.

Multiple friendships are hard to show. Everyone saw Wendell earn Laurel's vote but the perfect jury split between early and late boots was left mostly unexplored.

The Redemption Island conspiracy is boring. Tyson being gifted Blood vs Water as a payout for his botched vote in Heroes vs. Villains is the one to back. :tinfoil:

Carl was robbed. :colbert: That's a production gently caress up.

I hope Angelina tries to win favor every week from now on. She's become a fun goat.

I think the women will join up and agree to a ~25% shot at the money but I am hoping for an endless series of big moves where people elevate their status and immediately become the next target.

I think it's more Big Move Fever but it is partly rooted in last week's claim that Carl was taking credit instead of she and Christian.

Christian is probably hosed without an immunity run but that was a hell of a move.

Oh Christian voted Alison. Weird of Mike and Angelina to take out Gabby who would have been completely neutered after Christian played an idol she didn't know about.

Do we know if the final four has a firemaking challenge again or did they ditch that after the reception from the last two seasons?
"It's here to stay" - Jeff. Rob and Fishbach seemed to think the players know. IDK if they were told before the game but at a minimum they should expect it.

Gabby's beliefs about resume and taking credit aren't entirely wrong but it's really hard to strategize your way out of being #2 in the dominant pair. Fishbach kept bringing up Ken voting out David and getting no credit for it. She needs friends and votes not big moves. The reaction to Christian giving comfort is her realizing how strong he is socially.

Vernacular posted:

Nick, I don't know. His bitterness felt a little unnecessary, and even slightly hypocritical given he was trying to pull a fast one over Christian's closest ally last week
I would argue Nick was right to stop trusting Christian so it's a positive edit. I think he has the edge over Davie but the winner will be whoever leans back instead of taking credit for voting out Christian. There is a chance they go crazy and think they should keep Christian as a decoy.

I have no idea what's going on with the numerous confessionals of "We have to get rid of Alison, the big threat!" [footage not found].

Mike will go on to lose to Alison in the finals so this throwaway line becomes the highlight of her terrible edit.

UltimoDragonQuest
Oct 5, 2011



Going to tribal reminds me that Jeff will play along with bullshit and the vote wagering to extend the life of an idol is insane. The 50% shot of losing your vote is far higher than the historical likelihood of Jeff blowing up your lie.

i just would be really annoyed at seeing alison win just because this idea that she was a threat somehow infected everyone.
I wouldn't hate it if she went on an immunity run or made fire but the edit is jarring if this is their way to show her building relationships with the jury. Hopefully the pay off is that it's a season long joke when someone reveals they inflated Alison to build their resume.

Welp, Nick is not winning. You don't have someone say "he's a loving child" about your winner in your finale. Bye Nick! Bye, hope for a halfway decent winner!
