where do you even watch live? the "live tv" feed just brings me to CBSNews whenever I click it, not that it matters since it won't play since I have ad-blockers installed (disabling them doesn't work, they want them flat out removed LOL gently caress off). Another cbs live tv feed asks me to log in to cable subscription, which I can't do because who on earth still has cable?

Next-day?! No, I want the survivor raw from the feed even if I gotta watch the network tv ads

Mostly picked people I thought wouldn't irritate me from reading their profile, except for one dude, who I picked because he looks like a forgotten Doctor Who incarnation.

yeah makes me wish they had made more of a bond during chat time. My instinct was maybe a splinter tribe of the three people, so I would've been angling towards whatever the "ally" type option is for all of us regardless of what it ended up being. but its a good dilemma because what does saying that necessarily mean?

edit: haha, everyone told the same truth about the island but one dude told it so poorly people don't believe him lol

yeah he was on my roster and so was naseer. benched, though. ifi could change my roster now id probably take both of them off lol. naseer came in way too hot too fast with his "theyre looking for idols" thing, nobody liked it.

you put the die in a thing, then draw from a bag with 1/6 chance to be safe but lose vote... why they don't roll that die for the same exact odds?

the flint removal thing is intense!

there was a clue but the website wouldnt let me take a srceen shot. icecream minus something, head plus something?

really bummed to see sara go, but i think this was a great premiere! they threw in a lot of twists and things but none of them rubbed me as annoying horse poo poo, they seem to offer interesting strategic choice potential?

The quiet at the start types are the ones to watch out for. Voting out Sarah was such a dumb move when she’s a perfect bad player to take with you for awhile.

It also feels like several people had their own agendas and ideas of what to do, attempted their own move switches and alliances, but ultimately they all just laid down to do what the giant Doctor Who guy wanted to happen. I think if they don't get rid of him at next opportunity, they've basically laid the foundation for an end-game run for the guy to be that obvious person barrelling their will through the game and it works and all along you don't get why anyone hasn't just taken him down too late its the final 4 now.

Umm unless they have a pastor on the island to marry people secretly and we never find out, I don't think anyone on the island is having s*x. Unless you're accusing them of doing pre-marital which, idk... if you're going to levy serious accusations you should have some evidence before attacking someone's character?

i don't think he should've spilled the beans even if he could trust his whole little group. losing your vote sucks, but half the battle is making sure people don't know that, at least not till it will become important.

I think they'll be back to tribal soon for keeping Tiff but Voce spending 10 minutes bragging about always being the best makes his exit enjoyable.

I feel like Season 1 is a must-watch at some poin too, if only to see how different things were and how people functioned before the game became so gamey. A time where weridoes vote arbitrarily and the notion of alliances or voting blocs were rare spectacles.

I watched the first season this year after discovering Beauty, Brains, & Brawn on Netflix. drat when they rolled out that CRT TV with VHS player onto the beach, I felt shockingly old.

I did a full rewatch of the series a couple years ago and the whole thing is a weird time capsule of cultural and media snapshots. Shocked at others when people casually say some poo poo you'd rightfully expect people to take issue with today. Other times casual news or pop culture references you totally forgot and it was funny how "big" it was when that was filmed and aired. The early seasons also had people making pretty wild choices for themselves and their gameplan on such non-strategic or tactical poo poo, talkin about their honour and integrity and poo poo all serious. drat kinda making myself wanna rewatch again lol

Survivor Minecraft players need to tear down trees or reeds to make pulp for paper and must individually craft voting parchments, along with having to mine for flint and ore for knife, pot, etc.

I think the right move in the long run, but lol yeah, structurally all his advantage stuff I thought would mean he's hanging for at least another round.

still catching up on ep... Does intentional throw ever go well? I remember it a few times, or half-attempts where maybe only some people threw, but I feel like it's a short-sighted move in most cases? I suppose there strategically would be points where it could help, but without knowing when merges come or whatever, seems like often going to cut off options come merge... but then some of those options you want cut off asap... hmmm

edit: ahahaha blue trying so hard to lose and everyone else just so much slower while trying hard. Yes, I love this failure to fail.

Awww bummer JD went home so soon, I think you want that kind of guy around later in the game to take advantage of. but also an easy scheme to get a free advantage is pretty hard to pass up.

don't redesign them >:D

Genie was the most boring possible result but they made the build-up fun anyway, i hope their weak trust and paranoia comes to a head later on but if they don't merge or swap, should be fun when they once again lose challenge next week.

He's probably the only one that could get away with saying some weird phrase like that due to not being a native speaker.

Naseer's great. Between all this constant strategy and resume building it's nice to see someone that looks like they're just having fun.

e's also my fav to watch so far. I t was weird the editing they chose though, just kind of slam in at last moment he found one too. It just makes me worry he won't be around long, but I'm not edit-reader so wtf do I know.
