Hate that Koa didn’t participate and took someone’s spot, but happy he got three strikes in time to save Adrian’s game. Adrian is still poised to be voted out should Edo lose but at least he is getting another chance away from those rude Nawa people. Long live Adrian!!

Yea so interesting developments tonight. Koa was so disappointing this season in terms of inactivity. That is the risk with newbies, sometimes they will end up like this. Thankfully, the rest are very active and passionate. I am glad we resolved it early this season and he ran out out of strikes before it became a Trevor S5 situation where he was inactive and took away a spot from numerous deserving players.
The tricky part was how we were going to move forward in terms of format. I really believe this was the best and most fair option for everyone involved and it was also an intriguing shake up . Theres equal advantages and disadvantages for everyone.
Edo still has the most numbers and has some insight on Nawa, but they also have someone who can be awarded safety which would put them at risk if they were to lose.
Nawa has the disadvantage of someone who may feel scorned and bitter in Adrian, but they also have the advantage of being able to mend that relationship and go into swap with the most OG numbers. This could play out either way, its on them to decide which way it does.
Sagi has the advantage of not being involved but also disadvantage of not being involved.

After catching up on his confessionals, i think Rocky might be my favorite player.
Also, I think Charity is literally in 20 different alliances on Edo. Good on her for basically running that whole tribe, and nobody catching on.

Edo Rankings
1. Charity - Still running the tribe. Still a queen. The only thing that could screw her is if they compare notes because she's literally the common denominator in every single alliance. She doesn't trust Adrian which means if they lose, she will easily get the target on him and I don't see his previous tribe granting him immunity.
2. Thomas - I put him over Kyle because he's doing a much better job of not coming off as a threat than Kyle. He's in quite a few alliances, but he's remaining UTR and with him actively not looking for the idol, I don't think Charity will want to target him anytime soon.
3. Kyle - Kyle's still doing great, but I hope he doesn't fall into the trap of trusting Charity too much (as he kind of did in CYS with his allies... sorry) because she will take him out for being a threat down the road. I hope he can find the idol but if he hides that from her, she will suspect him first. I'm also not sure if he's aware of just how many alliances his #1 is in right now.
4. Rocky - Best confessionalist ever. Everyone needs to take notes from him on how to make funny and concise confessionals. Tyler I'm talking to you buddy. Anyway, Rocky's social game is paying off and he's at least showing some awareness with Charity being in so many alliances, but for now he's staying loyal. I can already tell through his confessional that Charity's distrust for Adrian is rubbing off on him. I hope he can think more for himself.
5. Dominick - Who? 6. Adrian - I love Adrian as a player so much. I'm happy to see him stay alive in the game but it may be short lived since Charity doesn't buy his story. It's too bad that he still trusts Tyler. Nick's hinky vote may have been the cause of that, but damn Adrian. If their tribe wins, I absolutely see him getting the tribe to put their votes on Tyler for safety which sucks.
Nawa Rankings
1. Nick - He had so much power in that last round it's crazy. He is still at the top in the tribe in my opinion but he is playing a little hard and messy. He threw a vote on sunshine and his reasoning didn't make sense to me. So there's some damage control he has to do that could've been completely avoided. He just needs to chill and he'll be fine. If he doesn't, his cards will be shown too soon. I don't think this tribe is smart enough to figure him out yet though.
2. Emilie - Girl knew exactly what she was doing to get immunity with the single and alone plea haha I had a hard time knowing how to rank her. I just don't see her being in danger and it's apparent that people want to work with her within her tribe and outside of it. The flirt game won't work forever though haha.
3. Tyler - Personally, I would put him on the bottom. He screwed his #1 and why? Because he was paranoid and selfish. He made a newbie mistake and unfortunately this will affect his long term game. He may not see it now, but turning on Adrian will bite him in the ass... unless Adrian still believes Tyler is with him lmao.
4. Amanda - Amanda avoided getting voted out not because of anything she did necessarily, but 100% because of Tyler's paranoia. Good on her though for avoiding the target when she was supposed to be the easy boot. I don't see her playing a long term game though.
5. Sunshine - Dude he is not masterminding anythiiiing. Everyone knows what he's doing. It doesn't look good for him if they lose again. It'd be fun to see what messy moves he could pull to get the target onto someone else though!
Sagi Rankings
1. Taylor - As far as I know, she is still in a great position. She's maintained a good social connection with every member of her tribe but she also comes off as non-threatening. Yes girl. Keep doing what you're doing.
2. Jake - I haven't paid close enough attention but Jake also seems to be in a good spot. Social, personable, and not super paranoid like our pal, Eddie. Keep it going, Jake!
3. Eddie - Eddie... once again making a decision based on what you've heard about someone instead of what has transpired in this game. He is also starting to come off as a leader in some ways. More than anything, he is just getting too paranoid. I hope he doesn't self-sabotage his own game.
4. Jordan - He doesn't post enough confessionals for me to form a solid opinion but from I've heard from Carlos he is super funny but just totally unaware of what's happening in the game. So unintentionally, he's playing a messy game which won't bode well for him trying to make it to merge.
5. Sid - I'm glad his tribe won immunity so he would have a chance to wake the fuck up but it doesn't seem like that's the case. I'd love for him to make it to a swap so he can try to form some new bonds and keep his game alive.

Edo: Adrian - New tribe for the guy, but he's definitely in the worst spot in the game. His old tribe just voted him out, and the new tribe won't be welcoming with open arms. Charity is running this tribe, and if she wants him gone, my man will be donezo. If he manages to survive this tribe and swap again, he'll be a major underdog in the game I'll root for. Charity - Queen running her tribe! Can't say enough about her game, she's completely dominating this first phase. She just better make sure she doesn't get caught because if you have your hand in too many cookie jars it can implode on ya fast.
Dominic - Just still not a fan lmao. His worse half was removed from the game, but that doesn't mean I'll suddenly like him. Hopefully he's next somehow.
Kyle - Playing a very strong game but i think his demise will be if he relies too much on charity. She has many many options and I'm not sure he can say the same. But he's very likable and could be someone to make new connections relatively easy come a swap.
Rocky - God he's so perfect. Best confessionalist of the season hands down, it's just perfect. Rocky is DELIVERING and i'll stay on this bandwagon. Sure, he's not in the power spot on this tribe but that's not always a bad thing when it's so early on. If he can stay under the radar for a while, he could go deep.
Thomas - Nothing great or bad to say. He's just bleh still for me, but overall not in a bad spot gamewise.
Nawa: Amanda - I love her feisty side and she's definitely someone who has improved for me from the first round until this one. Being in with tyler and nick, arguably two of the strongest players in the game is only going to work to her advantage. She just needs to not rub people the wrong way and she'll be fine.....hahaa who am i kidding...she's definitely gonna be in some fights. Emilie - Still slaying! I just worry that emilie is under the impression she's running her tribe when in reality she's #4 out of the 5 with the tyler/amanda/nick alliance. If she can not push for amanda to go and just allow stephen to leave, she should be chilling. but if she fights back...could be her downfall.
Nick - He's so funny and it's awesome that he realizes his mistake (lying about his vote) so quickly but yeah nick u really are a dumbass for that entire lie. He'll bounce back though, nick's making merge ill put $100 on it.
Stephen - Thinking with DAT DICK! Emilie's got you in her hands but that won't be enough to save you when you're in the minority of the tribe and are by far the most likely to go against them. Not a huge fan of stephen anymore, it's just not impressive thus far.
Tyler - He managed to survive that shit show of a tribal and not change tribes but losing adrian isn't great for him. However, he's got enough solid relationships to where he will still be fine. Overall i like the guy.
Sagi: Eddie - He's clearly got the skills to be good at this game but unfortunately he's awful at hiding it and sometimes that's what's more important. Sure he has solid allies with taylor and jake, but will they really pick him over jordan down the road? Very unlikely if ya ask me. Jake - Very humble and killing this game. He's got two very close relationships and eddie isn't the worst ally for him. Plus he's extremely charismatic. Still my winner pick baby, keep on doing you!
Jordan - Gaw damn that "roill tide" at the end of his confessional just made me laugh so hard. I'm officially rooting for jordan, he's just too funny and a perfect underdog down the road.
Sid - Yikes he's getting played tough and has no idea.
Taylor - Still slaying this tribe, nothing's changed since last round. 100% a contender to win, she just needs to try and keep herself from seeming THAT GOOD because it could put a huge target on her back in the merge phase of the game.
MY RANKINGSSSSSSS FAM:
16th: Domindick - 1 gone, 1 to go BYE 15th: Stephen - Bad gameplay. 14th: Sid - Read above ^ + clueless 13th: Thomas - I'm bored 12th: Eddie - Being good is great, but people knowing your good....not great. 11th: Tyler - Playing well but just not as entertained as I should be 10th: Amanda - Improved from last week and becoming smarter 9th: Kyle - Find that idol son 8th: Charity - KILLINGGGGGGG the game right now, queen of her tribe 7th: Adrian - Rooting for ya tough but damn you're fuckedddd 6th: Nick - Clean up your little lie mess 5th: Emilie - She had 2 men in her hands, but one just left tribes and the other is target #1 4th: Rocky - KING ROCKY IS HERE BABY lets go 3rd: Jake - You're doing great my guy 2nd: Jordan - I can't help but be on your side, WATCH OUT FOR JORDAN FAM 1st: Taylor - Absolutely crushing this game, and will go deep into the game (fingers crossed)
In case ya cant tell, I'm officially STANNING the jake/taylor/jordan trio.

Winner Contenders:
1. Thomas 2. Taylor 3. Jake 4. Kyle 5. Nick
Nawa:
They are an absolute mess!! It's hard for me to decide who is playing the best and who is playing the worst because they are so all over the place. If they head to tribal again I really wouldn't be shocked by anyone ending up as the vote out.
Top players:
?
Twerk for safety:
Sunshine
Amanda – She must have done something right to avoid being the target last round. She shifted the target onto Adrian, but I don't know if I feel confident with crediting her or anyone with making that move since it seems a few people wanted him gone anyway. I think she will be pretty safe this round unless she bombs the challenge. She's the kind of player who if she survives until merge, she is gonna be here for a while.
Emilie – She was given safety for the exact reason she feared, her reputation. She is aware enough to know that can really hurt her game, but I think she should be safe for at least one more vote anyway. She could even find herself immune again should her tribe lose. She really is a black widow because as soon as she realized flirting with Adrian could hurt her game down the line, she slit his throat. Savage. Her latest video confessional was great and I want to see more.
Nick – I am dying at him unnecesarily lying about his vote. It makes no sense at all, but at least he owns that it was stupid. Even with that, his tribe is so all over the place that I think he can survive another vote, but who knows with these people.
Sunshine – If Nawa loses again I think he's a goner. He sketched some people out last round and his bond with Amanda may want to be split. Amanda said she would vote him out last round if she had to, so I don't think she will have a problem doing it this time.
Tyler – He really is a fucking mess. Exposing that he made a final 2 with Adrian night 1 then voting him out the next day. I get the paranoia but he really needs to slow his roll. I can't see him staying around too long if he thinks everyone is out to get him.
Ranking:
1. Nick 2. Amanda 3. Emilie 4. Tyler 5. Sunshine
Edo:
Sad to see Koa go, but he doesn't deserve to be here taking other people's spot. The addition to Adrian adds a nice dynamic even though he's likely fucked if they lose.
Top players:
Charity and Kyle
Twerk for safety:
Adrian
Adrian - I feel bad for him and what he's going through in this game, but he is the ultimate underdog and there's no way you can't be rooting for him. He has the most intel of anyone in the game and I really hope he sticks around long enough to get revenge on his former Nawa tribe. He needs to find a crack and there are potential cracks. Kyle is considering keeping Adrian around, but if Charity doesn't want to then Adrian is toast.
Charity – I personally don't think she's playing a great overall game. She's playing fantastically to get her to the next phase of the game, but that isn't going to mean anything if she has a huge target on her back. I love how much she is dominating and is ruling her tribe, I just don't think it's the smartest role to be in this early.
Dominick – This boy reeks of early merge boot. Good at challenges and doesn't talk much? Sayonara.
Kyle – Kyle makes me laugh with his gifs and while I want him to find the idol over Charity, I want him to tell her he found it. He is very aware of his position in the tribe and knows that he NEEDS Charity to do anything. He is dying for a swap to get some power and I hope he pulls a good buff to make that happen. I am rooting for him.
Rocky – Rocky is an amazing confessionalist and while he doesn't have the hold on the game that he thinks he does, I am hardcore rooting for him. He has the kind of personality to be an endgame player, he just has to get to the merge.
Thomas – I think he is playing one of the best games out of everyone right now because he is in a good spot and isn't drawing too much attention to himself and that's how I think you have to play early on. Might be a little boring, but his tribe has been winning so we haven't had to see much of his game.
Ranking:
1. Charity
2. Kyle
3. Thomas
4. Rocky
5. Dominick
6. Adrian
Sagi:
This tribe feels like they are the extras and I don't think they would be getting much airtime at all if this were the real show. Purple Sid is REAL
Power players:
Taylor and Jake
Twerk for safety:
Sid
Eddie – Please play for you. That's all I ask. He is doing way too much and he knows it. His tribe needs him for challenges right now, but they are already talking about how he needs to go down the line. Yikes.
Jake – People know that he is good, but they still don't care. I thought Eddie and Taylor were the power duo, but I think it's really Taylor and Jake. I want to see how he performs at a swap and the merge.
Jordan – Still the provider of clown music. Even though he's funny he still has a good grasp of what is going on. I want to see if Taylor and Jake would pick him or Eddie if it came down to it. ROLL TIDE
Sid – I feel like we are just waiting for him to go at this point. There's like a 67% chance it happens too since this round is a double. Poor guy
Taylor – She is here for the long haul. People are gonna feel like she owes them in a swap since they gave her safety and may underestimate her in the process. I want her to cut throats with a smile and monotone voice.
Rankings:
1. Taylor 2. Jake 3. Eddie 4. Jordan 5. Sid

Amanda - Amanda is very underestimated. She's seen as someone who isn't very smart but I think the work she pulled out last round was amazing. I thought she was a dead woman walking and she managed to turned that around and get the target on Adrian. She's becoming more and more aware of her surroundings which is allowing her to plan ahead and make sure her ducks are lined up.
Dominic had no confessional in round 2 :s brah
Charity- She's a sneaky power player. She's in a really good spot in her class as she is with every single person in the tribe and I'm sure it will take a while for people to actually do anything against her. There won't be enough people to join to get her out anytime soon. I think she's shaping herself up for a long time and I think she'll be going far.
Eddie- I really like Eddie but he needs to stop thinking about people who are familiar to him and I'd like him even more. If he keeps basing his targets/those who he want to align based on their reputation that's going to be annoying. His crush on Jake is funny asf LMAO
Emilie - Omg! Adrian asked Emilie for NUDES!! BRAHHHH dead. She's a bad bitch and she's here to play. I'm here for the cutthroat ass gameplay and I'm looking forward to who she's going to cut later. She took the leader role in pushing towards her "showmance" Adrian.

Kyle Is probably my favorite player right now. He is super analytical and well-aware of what's going on in the game. I like that he know where he stands and knows how much power Charity has in the game. He wants more of that and is going to try to make sure he is at the center of things rather than Charity. I really like the way he is playing.
Nick Omg last round was a messy around in general and someone who felt it most was Nick. He lied about the vote and voted for Sunshine to go to the other tribe. AHH I hope he gets it together because I really like him but I don't think it really changed his tribe's opinion on him.
