@KylieSexy584603 @p3urvti Cast size is not a perfect metric when so many were booted when Aubry wasn’t present. Tribal councils attended is the best metric, exception is if you’re a super strong tribal challenge player and that’s why you avoid tribal you get some credit for that. Otherwise it’s just luck.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@StevieDeeOTT This doesn't make sense to me - they basically did run the end game, only being undone by Aubry winning at f4. I think you take that small risk instead of keeping Cirie (with Tiff) in the game who has a much higher chance of turning it against you at final 5 than Aubry does.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@JacobDa14501756 @Brian_Scally You don’t know that. Joe and Rizo were really close he could have gotten his vote. There are lots of cases of players being convinced at final 4/3. And who says fire is even a 5% chance?

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@willylit123 That intrigue is still there in terms of are all of the final 4 have to read the jury correct in terms of who to target. I think it’s not that fun to watch anymore, when it happened every now and then on a 2-2 tie it was exciting but now it’s every season it’s overdone imo

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@willylit123 The strategy of the fire decision if there’s a clear threat that needs be taken out is just as stale as a clear 3-1 vote. The difference is y ohh have 4 people making their own strategic decision as opposed to only one person

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@JacobDa14501756 @Brian_Scally The chance is making a convincing case to the others (aka survivor), which based on Rizo’s fire abilities might have been better than his odds of winning fire anyway

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@willylit123 @Brian_Scally Compared to the interesting and dramatic fire making between Jonathan and Rizo? Since Aubry won immunity we would have got to see the 3 boys turn on each other and convince each other who they want to vote out (with Aubry able to force a 2-2 tie if she wanted).

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@perksofbeingHC I agree but I hate this attitude that they can't have people upset that someone loses. Let us feel something when our faves come up short, it makes it hit 10x better on the seasons where they do pull it out.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@maximumwelfare @jordan_kent1 Being forced into it obviously makes a difference when you are talking about his attitude towards royal commissions, come on you can’t act like that doesn’t matter

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@L0ganDav1s @stephenfishbach You’re right - if you can spell it forwards and backwards (which it seems like multiple people could not), then it’s pretty easy.

Honestly if seemed like they were forgetting it was a 2 sided puzzle at all

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@L0ganDav1s @stephenfishbach It's because of all the double letters in INCONCEIVABLE

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@ShannonGaitz Surely we’re now at the point where the banker’s offer is so underwhelming we just open the rest of the cases for fun

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@BigThunderMan @JerseyShade 🤡

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@perksofbeingHC To me its wild to say Sandra is even close to being better than Cirie. Each to their own

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@JohnnyTalks23 Feel like Aubry would be getting a fairly purple edit otherwise, given the actual events of the season. Whereas you can squint and see editors propping up Tommy as a strategic golden boy light even if he doesn't win.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@JohnnyTalks23 Both pretty obvious edits - Aubry's seems more obvious to me because Tommy was getting credit for being well positioned but less interesting character (people like Carson have had this and lost) whereas Aubry is getting strategic credit for things that don't make as much sense.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@ryryrazz @DbScooper6 @stephenfishbach Come on... let's not pretend like this isn't one of the clearest winner edits in a long time.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@carpinisanul @ShannonGaitz Yes, because of the extra vote. I am outlining her strategy from her perspective where she doesn't know about the extra vote. She was doomed because of the extra vote, but even if there wasn't one (as she was planning), her move increased the odds of her going home.

[Jake Armes @jakea563]

@BrenBearcat1 @ShannonGaitz Yes agree 100%. The extra vote gave them complete safety to split & nothing Emily could do about it. I was just talking through Emily's perspective, with her not knowing about the extra vote.
