When Adrian first reached out to me I wasn't really sure if he'd be actually following through with the interview and the process. Nevertheless, I continued to explain about the game and hoped for the best. During his interview, he quickly became probably one of the best newbies I've interviewed. He is a G. I hope he does very well this season. If I had to predict his biggest obstacle it may be activity level but with the amount of newbies player it may not even be bad. Maybe he will prove me wrong and be active as fuck. But he has a great ass personality and I'm rooting for him. Placement Prediction: Late Pre Jury (13th Place)Rate: 10/10Jay:Adrian is definitely one of my favorite players from pre-season. He is completely new to ORGs, yet you can tell how passionate he is going to be. 100% rooting for him to do well. Do i think he will do well? Honestly yes, To me he seems a lot like Stephen from season 4 and AS. Brand new but soooo passionate and invested in doing well. I hope he is active and his true potential is shown. Late Merge (6th place) 10/10Carlos: Amanda is a sweet girl. I like that she is nice and seems like someone who will be very engaged in the game. Newbies are super interesting to watch because it's almost like watching a caterpillar turning into a butterfly throughout the game. I think Amanda can go two ways. She can be the catterpillar that turns into a butterfly or die as a catepillar. As of now, I'm not the biggest fan of her gameplay based on her interview - it seemed like someone to just go with the flow and I'd find extremely boring. But also I see a lot of potentials in her that if she approaches the game the right way, she'd do very well. Placement Prediction: Pre Jury (15th Place) Rate: 5/10Jay:Amanda is a really sweet person. She was heavily recomended by Adam Kennedy, and i can definitely see why. I can definitely see her being a force in this game, because she seems like someone who can work with anyone. Late Pre-Merge (13th place) 8/10 Carlos: Emilie is a great as social player. I think she makes it easy for people to like her. However, she puts herself out there so much and paints herself to be a target bigger than she would typically be... which is her downfall. I hope that instead of admitting to people that she's a target, she needs to make herself seem like less of a target than she really is... But I think overall she's a very entertaining player. Her schedule definately my biggest concern with Emilie but I think she'll pull it on the social aspect. Let's see how she takes the competition because they are a bit different to what she typically is used to. Placement Prediction: Late Pre-Jury (12th Place) Rate: 8/10Jay:Emilie was one of my two interviews that i got to do during casting, and she really impressed me. She had a ton of energy and a big personality, so she was a yes for me the whole way. I expect her to be a major part of the season and a big time competitor. Hopefully she is able to make her schedule work. Early Merge (11th place) 9/10 Carlos: Nick is definately a force to be wreckon with in these games. I think he'll be a super fun and entertaining player but overall a good player. If i was to choose a winner pre-season is definately Nick because he is a well all-around player. I'm excited to see him play and I hope he does well! Placement Prediction: Finale (1st Place) Rate: 10/10Jay:I recently got to play with Nick in a survivor game. He is a reallyyy good player who is extremely social and likable. His biggest problem is that he is a reallyyy good player which all the players see, therefore it make sit hard for him to make it to the end. If he is able to keep his target down, he has major winner potential. Late Merge (5th Place) 9/10 Carlos: I don't know a lot about Stephen. He was a last minute cast but by my interactions with him I can tell he is a mess! He proclaims to be a villain which I love. And Ricky just played a game with him and told me he is a mess but entertaining and active so here he comes! Let's see what he has to bring! Placement Prediction: Early Jury (10th Place) Rate: 5/10Jay:Stephen was a last minute addition to the cast after someone dropped, but he is definitely someone who would've probably made the cast if he had been part of casting from the start. Im extremely intirgued to see him play and see if he is able to be this big villain hat he states he will be. Every good Survivor season has a great villain, so if he can be that villain i am all for it. Early Premerge (16th Place) 9/10 Carlos: I freaking love Tyler. I think he is funny as hell, I can tell he is going to be very active. He is also a huge superfan and someone who seems like will be very smart. The moment he interviewed, I knew he'd be a yes. I'm excited to see him play because I think he is definately one of the newbies to watch for. Placement Prediction: Finale (3rd Place) Rate: 9/10Jay:Tyler is an extremely smart player and someone who i feel like will reallly enjoy this type of expireince. Out of all the newbies, i get the vibe that Tyler is definitely the most invested and most wanting to do well. He is someone who is probably more of a heroic character who might not neccesarily bring drama, but i am still excited to see him play. Mid-Merge (7th Place) 8.5/10

We all know homegirl Charity is going to be an active one! She is very similar to her sister which I hosted twice so it's like hosting Christen one more time! Now, I respect their gameplay. I think Charity is a super smart player, strategic and loyal. HOWEVER, this is huge coming from me because I'm soooo into strategy.... but sometimes she can OVERstrategize the simplest things and i'm just like girlllll your brain must hurt. Lol I think her game may be an interconnected and organized mess. And it's the type of gameplay that she tries to be in an okay relationship with most people but not too promising to be able to cut some. It's a smart gameplay as long as you don't get caught because once people are onto you, they will cut you. Placement Prediction: Mid Merge (7th Place) Rate: 6/10Jay:Charity is kind of one of the lower ranking ones for me personally. It's probably since i have recently played a game with her. She was kind of boring in it and not the greatest strategically. It also might be because she is automatically compared to Christen, who has played the series twice. I was a big Christen fan her first season, but eventually her gameplay got stagnant and her proclamtions of making big moves were obselete. So i really hope Charity brings a different kind of gameplay. I know she will be active, which will get her somewhat far but i really hope she is an interesting character as well. Late Premerge (12th place) 7/10Carlos: I think Dominick is a really good player and entertaining. However, if I was to predict what his downfall will be i'd say that he played the game too hard too fast. I can see him start playing right from the start which can get him in trouble if people start talking about it. Also I think his age works against him a lot. As the youngest castaway, I think he will have to prove that he is mature enough to keep up! But I'm rooting for him, I think that if he finds his footing, he will be very exciting to watch. Placement Prediction: Early Pre-Jury (16th Place) Rate: 7/10Jay:I could be wrong, but i think Dominick might be the youngest player to ever play XTC. That shouldn't put a target on his back since this is relatively young cast overall, but it will be interesting to see how he plays. We saw in season 3 of how an High School player could be disastrious, but I have an feeling Dominick will be better than that. He is also coming from twitter, which isn't the best transition. Overall, I'm intrigued to see how Domick adapts and socializes with the rest of the cast. Mid Pre-Merge (15th Place) 7/10
Carlos: I WANT KOA TO ME AN OTT MESS. This guy showed up to his interview in his bathtub full of bubbles with mickey ears. I DIED. The moment I saw him, I was like... he is getting cast! I think he is sadly going to be robbed early because he is definately going to be over the top and loud and it may put a target on his back if those around him don't understand his personality. But he is going to be ENTERTAINING, I already see it. So I hope that the rounds he spends in the game, he goes all out with the entertaining moments. Placement Prediction: Late Pre Jury (14th Place) Rate: 9/10Jay:Koa is definitely an interesting character. His interview was extremely unique, to say the least. I really hope he makes it far in the game, because he will definitely bring drama. Early Premerge (17th place) 8/10 Carlos: Kyle is close to Nick as well. I think they may have a similar gameplay. I'm excited to see Kyle play because I think he is going to be another strong player that is very strong all-around. I expect him to do very well and I hope he does very well. Placement Prediciton: Finale (2nd Place) Rate: 8.5/10Jay:K yle is someone who can easily win the game if things go his way. I didn't know much about him going into this but to my knowledge he haas played a few orgs already. He seems very much in tune with how he needs to play. I can deffinitely see him making social connections with people and being a major force. Early Merge (9th Place) 8/10Carlos: I'm SO excited to see this mess play! I think his biggest downfall will be trying to take control of the game. But he is definately strategic and entertaining and a hot ass mess. He is definately one of the ones that I'm excited to watch the most. I think he can go either way... Be smart and quiet or a mess. Placement Prediction: Early Merge (11th Place) Rate: 9/10Jay:Extremely excited to see Rocky play. Just off his Meet Me and Action Shot videos you can see that he is going to be an entertaining player. He was been extremely eager to play and do well. I love watching good players play who bring more than just strategy, but also are messy and exciting. Early Merge (10th Place) 10/10 Carlos:I think Thomas may be an early boot just because I don't know how confident he is in himself. If you're not coming in here with the mindset that you will make it somewhere, you probably wont. I think he can be a quiet and dangerous player. We'll see. Placement Prediction: Early Pre Jury (18th Place) Rate: 5/10 Jay:Thomas was one of the later additions to the cast. I had no idea who he was until I watched his meet me video, and I was pretty impressed just from the video. He seems like a pretty good player, and a newbie that I do think can do well. Very interested to see how Thomas plays. Mid Merge (8th Place) 8.5/10

I think David definately will have the advantage over a lot of the newer players of having played these games before so I think he'd basically do as well of the players allow him to do. I predict him to go very far just because of the type of player he is. He is very strategic and social and comes off as a very trustworthy guy. But a huge factor is also how he plays, he can play as a big threat/target or as an UTR player. I do think that he is someone that playing with you can just get the vibe that he is a huge threat and people will want to get rid of him eventually so I don't think he'd make finale. But playing this season makes it the whole circle for David. Starting as a host and ending as a player. Placement Prediction: Late Merge (5th Place) Rate: 8/10Jay:Dirty D is the man. Been wanting David to play ever since i have been a host. He is a badass player who will do whatever it takes to get ahead. Im hoping we get to see him play savagely and ruthlessly like he is accustomed to. I think there is definitely a good chance David can win the game, especially with so many newbies who may be easier to manipulate. His biggest obstacle will be avoiding the Patrick S4 dilemna where he is seen as a major threat to win, even by his allies. Late Merge (4th Place) 10/10Carlos: Despite popular belief, I think Eddie will do great this season. He is very OTT and pretty much the typical gay in ORGs but he is also very smart and I think sneaky to the point that people will underestimate him and he will be able to get away with a bunch of things. I think he is the type of player that people let stay for a while and then it isnt until the end of the game that they realize that he's been a threat all a long. I think he is going to provide entertainment and gameplay! Placement Prediction: Late Merge (4th Place) Rate: 8/10Jay:Im not exactly sure how i see Eddie doing this season. I think he is coming off a win in his first game, so lets see if he can make it a back to back. With this cast i see it being difficult for him to win, but i can definitely see him making it far. Mid Premerge (14th place) 7/10 Carlos: Jake is a G! Definately one of my favorite newbies and I hope he does great. I feel like I say this about every newbie but I think Jake is badass. He is really smart and I think he will be very likeable in the game which will get him far. I can also see him come across very threatening and get targeted but I hope it doesn't happen any time until after merge! Placement Prediction: Mid Merge (8th Place) Rate: 10/10Jay:Jake is deffinitely my favorite player going into the season. He is my preseason winner pick, and im kind've conifdent that he can really win. He seems like an extremely savvy person and i like how he intends to bring his expiereince from being a lobbyist into doiing well in the game. The only concern is how will he adapt, since he also a xomplete newbie to this. Winner (1st place) 10/10 Carlos: Jordan is going to be a social beast! This guy can talk for hours to a rock! He is definately going to be that one person who comes into the game and slays the social game. My biggest concern with him is also competition but I think overal his social game may carry him through the game. He comes accross very genuine and he is fun to talk to. I hope he does well. Placement Prediction: Mid Merge (9th Place) Rate: 10/10Jay:Im a big time preseason Jordan fan. His interview was one of the memorable ones and he was an easy cast. I absolutely thing he can make it deep into the game if gets the grasp of the game. Finale (3rd Place) 9.5/10 Carlos: Sid was a coworker of mine two summers ago. It was crazy when he revealed that he liked Survivor/Big Brother to me so he'd always come over after work to watch. LOL I just hit him up asking if he wanted to play and he was like sure. I don't know how active he'd be realistically. I think he is a very smart person and can do very well in the game as long as he is active. We'll see. I hope he does well though! Placement Prediction: Early Pre Jury (17th Place) Rate: 6/10Jay:Sid is very much a wild card. Out of all the newbies, I’m most unsure about Sid when it comes to adapting to the format of the game. He seems like a pretty interesting person, but I don’t get a strong sense of how active he will be. Early premerge (18th place) 7/10 Carlos:I think Taylor is going to be someone who may be very likable and not I don't know how much she'd be strategically and how much worth she may be to other people's game. I hope she does very well but I don't know... Something tells me she's just going to be a number to a group and dropped when not needed. Placement Prediciton: Late Merge (6th Place) Rate: 5/10 Jay:I have very high hopes for Taylor going into the season. I think she has a good shot of making it to the end. She seems very likable and also very in tune with how the game is played. I would be shocked if she doesn't at least make the merge. Finale (2nd place) 10/10
