So I have to say that Danny's newest update was not annoying and I am starting to feel a certain type of way! At first I didn't like him, obviously! I went a little OTT on him in my cast assessment and that is for sure how I felt at first. However now I am seeing him reel back in his rope. He didn't catch anything and he isn't that good at fishing but he is stepping back and realizing that. I think he is learning you don't need to be loud and in your face, you don't need to have such a big plan, you just need to be present and liked. Right now on the American tribe this is the line of power.
MARANADA - The Real Power
- Natalie, Will & Whitney :: Safe and won't be changing I don't think?
- Hunter, Danny, :: Along for the ride, but doing okay.
- Brady, Jessica, Mark, Constance :: On the way out and or not properly established.
I think Maranda is in the best spot in the entire game at the moment because people are allowing her to be that way and because people are ACTUALLY afraid of her. I know fear can go a long way. Natalie and Will are behind her because I think their opinions matter and they know it. They are apart of a three headed brain that I do think will slowly start coming together. Hunter & Danny are the better thinkers. They may not be the smartest but they have all the right ideas and sometimes that little spunk can go a long way.
Brady is being too much of a player as is Mark. Both doing too much, saying too much and setting themselves up for problems. Not only with each-other, but with the whole tribe. Jessica is amazing just needs to start showing that not to us, but to her tribe!
Sadly the queen is probably heading out of the game! Constance!! AHH. However so much can happen and with the combination of Danny, Hunter, Brady, Constance and Mark all on this tribe... I don't think it's as FOR SURE of a thing as much as everyone thinks. I can see this tribe being super paranoid in a Tribal Council and once gossip about who wants who out becomes more surface level, well, i expect drama!

LOL there are a couple videos I couldn't finish. I know my first video was fucking horrible and boring, but some of these got me zzz. Plus, I can't deal with drunkfessionals on the first day. Taylor is trying way too hard.

Rachel's second confessional is EXACTLY what I have been waiting for. I want to start off by once again saying that I have so much respect for Mark Gannon. Not only is he someone who I would call a buddy but he is someone I would respect in a game whether we were on the same team or not. He is a very good Survivor player and this is also because he is a very interesting person. Survivor and Life comes hand in hand. If you are fun and smart, you will be good at Survivor. At least I think so? Mark is both fun and smart, and usually that leads to people wanting to talk to you and it's extremely endearing.
What I love about Rachel and I think this is something that needs to be pointed out, is that when she sounds like she is being super analytical. It's also just confessionals. In a confessional Rachel will tell us her point of view, what is going on, and it may sound like she is seeing it from all sides, which I am not doubting she is, but when she gets talking to the camera she begins to investigate all avenues of everything she says.
In this confessional she basically tells us she trusts Gannon but she doesn't never know what else he could be doing. All this is concern and extra thoughts and I don't think its very relevant. I like that she does it, but what I mean is that even though she says she is worried about whether he is talking to everyone else the same way as her, she knows that she trusts him and it's the real deal. I think Rachel is going to trust Mark COMPLETELY unless he does her dirty.
In Georgina's last confessional which I didn't watch the whole thing cause I don't know who she thinks she is making long ass confessionals... but in it she talks about how obviously her and Mark are lesbians and in love and that they both wanted to work with Rachel. She also said in her confessional that Rachel kind of created the Georgia, Mark & Rachel alliance! I'm glad Georgina is hitting it off with Rachel; cause that is important!! Rachel can DESTROY Georgina, so the fact she patched up the original concerns is A+. So now it's completely confirmed that Rachel made the alliance of Gannon, G and herself and I think that is really good for all their games, ESPECIALLY Georgina. She should count her lucky stars.
Right now these are my power rankings for the rest of the world, and I just want to say that I am so stoked that I called the majority from even before the game began!!!!!
- Mark & Rachel... Mark may have all the power right now, but Rachel is a new player and she will develop and is already doing so.
- Georgina & Daniel... Georgina could be higher, but she's not, but she was at the bottom and now she is coming back to the top.
- Tanya and Paulina... They are Tier 3 because they are followers at this point, but they won't realize that for a VERY long time.
- Yogi... LOL no comment? But doing better then some people I guess. I mean he has an alliance with Paulina
- Axel & Felix... Being too obvious about being sneaky, that they know each-other, and not hitting it off with their tribe too hard.
- Taylor... I want her to fix her life, but she isn't trying. There is a small chance Georgina could try to save her? I am beginning to doubt it though.
Felix & Taylor are probably going to be the most at risk at leaving Tribal Council, and wouldn't put an Axel boot out of the question either.

Is it possible to be this over Taylor when I was never rooting for her to begin with? Who knows. But I am. I'm so not into anything that she's putting out there. There's something that seems so attention seeking about making her first confessionals (if you can even call that first one a confessional) into drunkfessionals. Like... give us your real personality first? The drunkfessional thing is really only cute if you've established yourself as a real person first tbh. IDK. Sorry to anyone that's friends with her but I just can't with this girl right now.
I love Rachel so much. I'm rooting for her. And Tanya. Ugh. I love the R.o.W. tribe so much.

I want to say as someone who knows Taylor, not very well, but knows her... I think she just came in wanting to have fun. I think it has a ton to do with maturity and age. I agree with you entirely however because if she would have came in and actually introduced herself and showed us something about her. That would have been nice. I mean she doesn't need to come in and be such a mastermind or super strategic but if she came in and gave us something to work with I bet we would all be loving on her. So far she has only showed us that she thinks it's almost like a popularity contest, but she's unaware that she is putting herself very freaking low by not trying to establish herself with not only her tribe but us the viewers. All three of us!

LOL I found Hunters spy-on-tribe-chat confessional really hilarious. Because..it seems so dramatic and unnecessary but also it was kind of entertaining. I want to see more of this kind of shit.

Haha. The entire time I was watching Hunter's spying confessional, I was wondering if it's just gonna make them think he's shady for being so quiet.

I think the best part of that was how sneaky he thought he was and how proud he was of himself! I like Hunter, I just think he is not as smart as he may think he is.

Brady is being too much of a player as is Mark. Both doing too much, saying too much and setting themselves up for problems. Not only with each-other, but with the whole tribe. Jessica is amazing just needs to start showing that not to us, but to her tribe! Sadly the queen is probably heading out of the game! Constance!! AHH. However so much can happen and with the combination of Danny, Hunter, Brady, Constance and Mark all on this tribe... I don't think it's as FOR SURE of a thing as much as everyone thinks. I can see this tribe being super paranoid in a Tribal Council and once gossip about who wants who out becomes more surface level, well, i expect drama! I actually love Brady's outright hatred for Mark. Mark hasn't posted anything so I can't quite take a side, but right now I'm #TeamBrady on this one and I hope he can actually pull something out of his ass and save Constance, or as he says, Continence. For some reason I had this completely different mental image of Brady based off his pic/bio, but I like that he's coming off strong. I think he has Mid-Game Crash n Burn Syndrome written all over him so I don't want to be robbed of that this season tbqh. |

I want Brady to succeed, I just think too much too quick? He is not in a majority alliance and he is putting a lot of info out there that could come back and bite him. Mark somehow is in the majority and needs to do a damn confessional but if Brady could get Mark out and save Queen Constance -- my life would be that much better!!! |

What are the tengaged connections across both tribes? It seems more like Tengaged vs Normal People rather than Americans vs British Commonwealth. Maybe I'm just getting a stronger tengaged vibe from the Americans just because it seems like they're approaching this game as they would a tengaged game. Like setting up long term plans and expecting them to last and/or pan out. Will was talking about "letting Whitney make merge" and its like, ok. First round in my game, Boteti was a cluster fuck and things did not go to people's plans, and it seemed like things were changing constantly and the game could have turned on a dime. People seem so weirdly confident.

People seem so weirdly confident. When it comes to how the divide is occurring on both tribes I really do think it's based on sanity. Even though the tribes are VASTLY different from each-other, if you look closely all the people who are more rational and calm are teaming up. Luckily in this case calm doesn't mean boring. Mark / Georgina have both only ever played TWO games and Survivor Facebook isn't a typical ORG. So I think they are with Rachel, Daniel, Paulina and Tanya because the six of them are all real human beings and they can connect on an intellectual level. None of them are Tengaged; I think the rest besides probably Yogi may be though? At least to some extent, and they all also tend to be a bit younger too. On the American tribe they all seem to be a little more crazy. I think Danny, Hunter and Brady are tengaged? Are Will and Maranda too? I wouldn't be surprised if Natalie has been on Tengaged, but her and Constance are from an even more pathetic place on the internet called The 703... and honestly, I just think all around it's like Heroes Vs Vilains. Heroes are the rest of the world, and the villains are the americans. I say this because the american tribe is filled with so many different blends of crazy. So I don't know if that answers anything you tried to ask, cause as I kept typing I started to realize I may not know the answer to your question LOL -- but that's how I look at the tribes at this point. |
