I feel like the rebel who broke away from the trend

I would be more excited but given your history in these fantasy leagues I feel like maybe I should be concerned instead

Man, 4th pick again. I'm gonna go with a bit of a dark horse again and take J'Tia. She's smart, looks physically competitive, and appears to have good social skills. Being on the brains tribe probably lessens her chances of getting in personality clashes early, unless she and Garrett turn out to hate each other. I…

I'm gonna take Woo, Garrett, J'Tia, and LJ. I'm not that confident about my Pick-4 success continuing in the All-Newbie era

I'll go with Mr. Atfink. Seniority breaks the tie

I'll claim my spot. Any idea on when the draft might take place?

That was my interpretation as well

Well like I said Hayden and Caleb were part of Aras's master plan to vote out Laura M. That being said Laura's vote splitting plan made not a lick of sense whatsoever.

They definitely had Hayden and Caleb voting for Laura with them (at least in Aras's mind). So if everyone stuck together they would have been fine if Laura played the idol but obviously they didn't.

The big one was Andrea betraying the Wine and Cheese Alliance by voting out Francesca. This pissed off some people (notably Stephen Fishbach) because obviously she had already been voted out first before.

I think the better analogy is Dawn, Even if she makes the right moves she'll probably be too offputting to the jury to win. Russell just bullied his way to the end which was different.

Also Aras and Gervase have been friends outside the game for a long time. That's why Gervase made such a big deal in his confessional about this being his power move. He's placing the game above his friendship outside it.

I actually think the edit has shown Ciera to be a sound strategic thinker with a good understanding of the game and her place in it. But she's not a decision-maker which could help or hurt her depending on how the game plays out. If the power players cannibalize each other she's most likely to come out on top.

Exactly. Which is why I assumed she already knew this information and was OK with it because she could decide who to go to Final 3 with. Clearly I give Monica too much credit

Jeff had to maintain the illusion that Culpepper was eliminated by a great player, not his own stupidity

Great series, haven't thought about it in years. I do remember that it stood for volunteer fire department which was kinda lame

God I wish Cirie was on this season. Imagine how perfect this season would be if her and her husband had replaced Candice and Dr. Boring

See I feel the opposite. I looks to me like Monica is one of those people who focuses intently but its on the wrong thing or the wrong part of the thing. Which is why Tyson is constantly having to explain himself in small words.

Still if someone had to find the idol Tyson is clearly the best choice because he made the search entertaining and he's probably gonna either play it well (which is entertaining) or fail spectacularly (which is even more entertaining)

I think they knew they weren't gonna be able to really disguise the vote so they committed to the long-term story arc of the "Fall of the House Bauskaskas" which was undoubtedly the right decision, even if it made this episode a bit predictable
