[align=center]◄ Cast Rankings ►![]() I am excited for this tribe actually. Erik is defintley the weakest socially but I think he might be ok. His picks were smart and I think the way the picks ended up might work out for him. Not sure though. My guess is Ivan will be gone first on this tribe. Just seems the easiest. Unless Johnny wants to save him and can rope in Emma with her Tessy, I don't know. I just feel like the Elektra/Emma connection will keep them close and Elektra likes Johnny as well. Elektra/Susan might keep Erik safe (at least for the first vote) but who knows. SHOULD BE SAFE: Susan, Elektra, Johnny, Emma YOU IN DANGER, GURL!: Ivan, Erik 1. Emma Frost: I'm liking her still. She seems to be one of the strongest socially in the entire game (not surprised). She is in a little bit of a predicament on what to do here so I am interested in how she handles this. Also if she doesn't tell people about her Tessy, will they be like "OMG THE LYING WHORE" and come after her the next time? Something tells me Susan and Elektra might react that way. I'm hoping she and Johnny can find some common ground here and become a duo like Elektra/Susan are. Who knows but I think she is the best player on this tribe, but I don't think she is in the best of positions. 2. Susan Storm: I still like Susan. I love the utter disdain people outside of her tribe seem to have from her. I get it though, I have played with tara before where she is very fake. But I like her cut throat attitude mixed with her "I cannot be lied to" attitude. It scream hypocrite but for some reason I can't wait for her eventual blindside. It will be magical. 3. Elektra: Elektra should be the safest on this tribe. Even if she doesn't get her way, as long as she just doesn't freak the fuck out she should be fine. She has ties to Susan, Emma and Erik and loves Johnny (despite him not liking her). She should be fine but who knows. I can see a power struggle occurring if Emma and her disagree on boots. She is capable of running shit though, so I wouldn't be surprised to see her as the decision maker on this tribe. She has the positioning to do so. 4. Johnny Storm: I like Johnny a lot I just wish I could here him confess. Idk what he is thinking. His position on this tribe could be really easy I think, but something tells me Snoopy won't make it that way :lol: I could see him going after Susan/Elektra and that would be exciting, ngl. I would love to see that. Although he is playing a more subdued strategic game so far, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him coast on this and vote out Ivan and Erik and hope for the best. I really hope Emma and him get tight though. 5. Erik: I like Erik a lot too, I just don't know. I feel like his position is strong, but for w/e reason he isn't keeping up socially? At least that's what I get from confessionals. He is playing Magneto great and if he were to survive long into this game I would love it. He is very level headed and he is ready to play. I'm rooting for him but I could see him becoming like a agreed-upon-boot-b/c-we-don't-have-other-options boot. I can also see him connecting with Elektra/Susan maybe and ruling the tribe? But not really cuz of Emma's Tessy. 6. Ivan: I think Ivan is hilarious actually. I like this whole tribe. I just think he is kinda expecting to fail all the time, so I kinda think the same. He's not inactive but he is giving off that impression which makes it so easy for people to grab on to, especially when the tribes are this small. He is hilarious though and a smart player, but I think his goose may be cooked. ![]() Lol this tribes. What the fuck was Steve thinking here? For real, like wtf. Maybe he just woke up or something, who knows. He def put himself and Peter in a shit position where they become dependent on Xavier. Which sucks a lot lol. But oh well, they can work it. Something tells me X will pick their side and boot Raven and then Ben (assuming Hank keeps up socially which duh, he will), so we will see. Despite playing well, I just think Raven might be fucked. SHOULD BE SAFE: Xavier YOU IN DANGER, GURL!: Hank, Peter, Steve, Ben, Raven. 1. Peter: Duh. T18 is kinda hilarious when he doesn't get his way? Especially when he played the pick um correctly but Steve fucked that up. I do think he will be fine, tbh, as Xavier will pick him. Even if Steve is fucked, I think Peter is fine. And I hope so. I think he's been playing a great game and has been interesting to watch as well. Nothing has been too easy, and that continues here. I BELIEVE IN YOU PETER! 2. Raven: Sadness, so much sadness. She just always seems to be on the outs. I think if it was a giant merge, she would have a great shot, but I just think she might be on the outside looking in here. For some reason I feel like she would be the boot over Hank, but we will see. I've loved her arc in this game and it would be wasted if she was just pushed aside here. 3. Hank: I think Hank has the best shot out of any of the returnees. He is well liked, had no time to annoy anyone and is very social. He has built in allies here and is overall just looking for a fresh start. I am rooting for him hard here as I think he has it in him to go far. He wants to be here and will fight. This stage shouldn't bring him much problems unless Xavier decides he hates him or that he isn't worth saving. I don't quite see that happening. But new life Hank will make the most of it I think. 4. Ben: I feel kinda bad for Ben, this is probably the worst possible outcome for him. I could see him maybe surviving one vote. But two? Possibly three? Yikes. I do think him and I know he won't give up. I said I wanted to see him in a spot where he has to try hella hard...well he has a fucking mountain to climb. He won't win immunities either so good luck here Ben! 5. Steve: Alol Steve. What happened This still feels like a situation spn will get out of b/c well....he's spn, but after that move I am smh and face palming at the same time. I just can't. Playing SUCH a good game and one dumb decision like that could fuck shit up. I still like him a lot and hope he can manage this horrid decision, so let's see 6. Xavier: I have been turned off on Xavier for a while. He is cocky, arrogant, and annoying. Trying to pin Titan as some crazy threat was hilar b/c it is Titan lol, but yeah, just everything he was doing towards the end of Genosha was really annoying. He is not called out well and he is also whiny. He is in the best spot on his tribe though, so he will be around more. Sigh. ![]() This tribe is on the surface boring as fuck. But with Yope missing rounds and Cat going on vacation, who knows wtf will happen. I think Yope might be fucked here in the Colo rounds but we will see truly how much power Anna has. I think in a normal game, without Cat or ncass as her allies, she would be able to, but they are both weird players, so who knows what they will do. I think everyone could potentially be in danger, but not really I guess. Go ANNA! SHOULD BE SAFE: Anna, Ororo, Natasha YOU IN DANGER, GURL!: Logan, Bruce, Tony 1. Anna: This isn't close. She is my favorite in the game, with Peter close behind. I just think she's been playing so smooth, but also so HBIC like. Just a well crafted leader. A well oiled machine. She might be in a pickle here with weird ass Natasha but I think she is safe regardless. I'm hoping she gets her way and Logan stays safe, but I doubt that actually. I just need her to survive. 2. Logan: Yope is probably fucked, but I'm glad he cares about this game and is upset he is fucked. So many game he wouldn't care, but he does here. I'm hoping someway he survives b/c his utr social game is amazing here and his trolling his secret group is amazing as well. I need him to stay just so he can fuck with Xaveir some more lol. GET SOME PLANE WIFI GURL! 3. Ororo: I was loving Ororo, but now idk. I hated how she handled that last round with Shaw. Not that I was rooting for Shaw, but I thought she played that round about as bad as she could have. And self-voting so now she can't play in the comp. Not sure what she is gonna do here. She seems a bit scared of the Anna/Logan/Natahsa potential bond, so we will see what she does here. I think she should be safe though. 4. Tony: Might be insta-fucked but Natasha loves him or something? Or thinks he will be useful in challenges? Which he might be but then again he lost to Ivan in a duel, so yeah. He might have some fight in him but he seems to be the easy boot being the only non-Titan of the group. If Anna has her way, I am sure he will be boot number one or two. I think I'd rather see him than Bruce at this point, so I'm hoping he stays. He can win the immunities as well, but will have his work cut out for him with Anna and Natasha on this tribe. 5. Bruce: Another wtf pick. Wtf was that. NOT picking Johnny when Johnny/Tony/Bruce were kinda like a outsider threesome. I get they weren't that close but it is such an insta-alliance it just seems to make no sense. Oh well, Bruce has been feeding from the bottom for a while, so maybe he can continue to survive that way. But having the second pick on a tribe and putting yourself in the position you have is so odd. 6. Natasha: I just don't understand her. I guess she wants Ororo out? Ok. But why? B/c Tony is good at challenges? I guess she doesn't know challenge skills won't really help the tribe all the much in this stage, but weird. She wants to start playing now lol, when he position could be precarious if she starts poking around too hard. I think she's safe cuz of her Tessy, but she is just annoying me. I don't want anything fucking with Anna, and I think she might. ![]() I really haven't read much about this tribe so this will be more on what I think will happen, I guess. But I think this tribe is very interesting. With Loki/Johann with the obvious bond, what do they do? Keep Bobby? Let Bobby go? Does Pepper bring together Thor and Harry? Does anyone give Harry a chance. Do they just agree Harry and Bobby should be fucked? Idk what will happen, but it should be fun. SHOULD BE SAFE: Loki, Johann, Thor, YOU IN DANGER, GURL!: Harry, Bobby, Pepper 1. Loki: I still think Loki will be fine. Just something about FT makes him very adaptable, super likable and easy to play with. He will probably have everyone thinking he loves them before the night is over. He is playing a lot more utr since his early days here, but I think he is playing that perfectly. Good job and I think he should be ok. 2. Johann: This stage, I think, will make or break Eyka's game. I think if he can stay safe in this round, he is fine. He might win the whole thing. He has just enough presence mixed with the strategy and utr-ness needed to withstand this crazy sized game. I just think he need to play this perfectly and he could be in for the long haul. If he stumbles here, he's probably gone. I would hate that b/c he's funny and playing so well. 3. Thor: Hmmm, this should be interesting. He seems to be confident in his position. I guess he should. He has Pepper on one side, Johann on the other. Should be good. I can't see three people coming together to boot Thor. He has been playing very well and people always seem to like him. 4. Pepper: She is a free agent so hopefully she can work it here. Mel is playing great here, but it's almost like she has to start over as if she was a returnee. Thor is her most important connection here. She needs to stick close with him or I could maybe she her everyone turning on her and Harry. It would just be too easy for them to turn against the Zenn-La cuz there is only two of them. She needs to work Thor hard and she should target Bobby I think. 5. Harry: Not sure on Harry's chances here. I'm guessing he almost needs to hope for a three v three split that he survives. Otherwise I see him being the first or second boot almost no matter what. Nothing he can do, it's just the position of the tribe. I am rooting for him though b/c he has the comp skills to do some damage. I just look at this tribe and try to see him in the top 4 and I don't see it. 6. Bobby: Idk anything about Bobby anymore. His saving grace in this will be Loki and Johann. If they don't feel comfortable in this tribe, they save him. If they feel fine, bye bye Bobby. [/align] |

Aunt May was so kind to provide the banners and stuff. How kind! We're at F24 now, and the subtitle for this round should have been Even More Retardation Coming. Yikes. [align=center] ![]() This tribe could go a few ways, and I think a lot will come down to how much Ivan can/will put in to this tribe. I'll stand by the things we said about this prospective tribe before the picks happened, that things can collapse on Erik HARD. It may not actually be the first round, but making it through this stage? 1. Emma - I know she's worried about her spot, but it's probably fine. She's playing coy with the Tesseract because while it should be fucking obvious that she was gifted a piece and completed her Tesseract (they'll find out tomorrow night), that will probably be a huge thing come the second vote. Johnny could beat any of these people in most challenges, but based on track record, he (and Susan) is hilariously enough one of the weak links in context of this game. She should be utterly safe at this first vote, no questions asked, and she's savvy enough to pull something with her Tesseract next round if she has to. Good luck, girl! One thing that will be interesting is what she does if she wins tomorrow. Who will she gift her piece to? Will she help Elektra on her Tesseract, as they're SG partners, or will she try to find someone new in Johnny? 2. Elektra - Hey, she can't claim that I put her last or close to last every time now! Really though, she landed in a posh spot for now. The only question at hand is still Johnny. However, she landed on a tribe where there are some people that are happy to see her, and isn't one that is in a position to make people turn against her. One of the biggest things will be if she can hold on to Erik and keep him close. He may be the most important person for her immediate future here. I still don't think that Elektra is the one that people would want to take a shot at, because she's kind of in neutral ground in spite of being firmly on one "side" here. 3. Johnny - I've given up on expecting him to confess. I think I'll probably end up just making him AIM confess or something. I don't know. I've done that with some before, and somewhat with some in this game. I actually think he could have a lot of sway in this group. He can side with the two girls and be F3 on this tribe that way, or if they do manage to lose Ivan and Erik in some order, he has the option to jump to Emma and say "haha, we have 3, you have 2" or something, even though it's not entirely impossible that Elektra couldn't get her Tesseract together. 4. Erik - I'd like to see him somehow make something of this, but I just can't see him being better than a 4th in this group, and honestly, probably a 5th. He has one of the more uphill battles out of these 4, though I don't think any of them have it particularly easy. I'm not entirely sure what it is here. I just don't know if he's a go-getter enough to ensure that he's at least 4th, because I doubt he wants to make too much a splash to seem to try to supplant someone and get busted for that. 5. Susan - Yeah, Susan is... Susan. I just think her attitude with the way others act is really shitty at times, and her hubris is ridiculous. 6. Ivan - Dude, you got fucked. I am not putting him last because I think he's dead (well, he is), but I'm putting him last because I think he knows it as well as everyone and I don't know if he's going to put in much. I wouldn't blame him if he more or less rolled over and died, because his best option is some fucking thing where he flips Emma and either Johnny or Erik? Yeah. I appreciate everything he's done, but right now, I just don't think he has much. ![]() More Retardation Coming... AGAIN. Holy fuck. This is ridiculous. If the tribe were what I expected of them, my rankings would be MUCH different. The way things went down, I just... ffs. 1. Parker - He did nothing wrong except picking someone who made one of the biggest blunders in the game at one of the most critical points. I know he's mad at Raven as well for her pick, but that's neither here nor there. He personally will be fine though. After all, if Charles's people take over this thing, they'd do Grimm, then Rogers, then him, if they don't win. He'll be fine, and I wish I could tell him so. This situation is certainly not ideal for him, but he should be making F14 with not only a Super Power but also an idol intact. 2. Raven - She's taken some heat, but I love her emotion and all of that. She is still probably screwed, because can they really afford to keep her around if Beast impresses? It's too much trouble. She seems like an underdog even when things are going her way. How weird is that? I don't know if this was better or worse than other situations. She shouldn't be here, but at least here, I guess she'll at least be able to spend her final days among friends. Maybe, just maybe, if Grimm goes first as expected, she could stand a chance and A-M may stick together, but I kind of doubt it. 3. Benjamin - Yes, he's been tiresome at times, but I don't really think he stood a chance this phase wherever he landed, because he was going to be a late pick after most of the pre-made alliances were made. I actually like watching him when his back is against the wall and seeing that fight from him, and it's already begun, but I worry that he'll get demoralized and just pack it in. 4. Hank - You did nothing wrong here, but I just can't rank you higher on this expected tribe because as I said in my previous ranking, you'll have a lot to prove to your tribe... and to me. I think he'll do well enough to make sure he's at least 4th. The question is can he get to 3rd? 5. Charles - Yes, I'm annoyed with him being a whiny bitch about the event, and it's one of those where he'll be someone that looks back and is like "oops". Not oops in that he made a mistake, but oops in the sense that he'll realize he was acting like an idiot for nothing. He's safe, no big deal. I would say that he and Peter are probably the safest two people on this tribe, but let's just wait til he has a blowup about who is going to be second boot here. 6. Rogers - What in the hell were you thinking? No, he doesn't know the formats, but why shouldn't people expect there to be at least two boots from each tribe? He was worried about Raven being all alone or something, but fuck... You just shot yourself in the dick by setting up this situation. It's not good to watch at all, and while I know some others like GaGa would have been all "if he gets got by Susan/Elektra, so be it", at this point, if he gets got because of this, it is nothing that he didn't have coming. Fact is, let's say they lose Grimm and then Raven. If Parker doesn't have his Tesseract, will Charles just side with Hank and boot Rogers? ![]() How fitting that this is a color similar to Titan, because it is Titan mostly, and may have similar dynamics as the original iteration. 1. Anna - If people want to take out Ororo, it will have to be run past her first. The last tribe she completely dominated. This one she will too. I've seen little from her, but she set the picks in motion better than most, because there were literally no snafus. She got just what she would have wanted, and just what she would have needed. Wait, wasn't it based off her list? alol. GJ. 2. Logan - Hey, you won't always be at the bottom end of the rankings, but you probably will be in the next edition since you'll probably be INV, unless I hate people so much. You complained about the rules, but congrats on having a perfect scenario to possibly miss a round in here. I'm not "rooting for him" per se, but his further existence is fine by me. Once again, Logan falls into a tribe where he can just be chill and lay back. 3. Stark - I'm hoping he doesn't get fucked over here, but he very well should/could be. Frankly, I think his best hope is pitching to these people that with two Tesseracts out of 6, that he is the best hope at getting another one, and if he sells that to these people and pledges loyalty it may work. Maybe not. 4. Ororo - She goes here because... I guess she goes here. If original tribes held longer, I think she'd be in a great spot here, but I think she's expendable here. On top of that, some have already spoken about a "blindside" of her here and all. I kind of hope not, but the alternative is probably Stark, and really, I'd probably rather see him hang out a little longer. 5. Natasha - I swear the only thing I know about her is that she nitpicks rules and stuff and/or doesn't read them and asks dumb questions. I have no idea how much she'll even be around this week. She did say that she would miss a couple rounds and may get got one of those times. Such a weird enigma to me. 6. Bruce - Seriously, guy... what were you thinking? I don't care if Natasha was your #1 ally way back when, I just can't with that pick. You basically made this the Titan/Utopia tribe where you're just a visitor. He may make it through the first round. He may possibly the second round if there are no-shows, but everyone should know to stay away from Tesseracts, unless they're a number in your column. Especially stay away from them if they will pick another one that is out of your control. Ugh. ![]() What a weird tribe. This actually could go a LOT of ways on the first vote, and it may even tie. 1. Pepper - I'm so happy for her that she landed in a place where she's useful but not expendable, approachable but not someone to worry about, etc. This is the tribe she needed to land on because her ties are all around there. She has Harry, who may just be a shield. She has Thor as her partner. She has a good relationship with Thor. She could possibly not make it out of this phase, but I'm just happy that she was able to land on something like this, even though having 3 C-E at the tail isn't the best thing. 2. Thor - I said last round that I liked how he was trying to work any other connection. It landed him Potts. Now, he's basically tied to Potts (and Harry) by that, but he's also tied to Johann (and the others). He is in a deliciously interesting spot. I hope he doesn't lose his shit trying to make a decision here. 3. Loki - Loki is fine, I just think this is kind of "ho hum" here, and whatever. He'll maybe be sweating in a round or two, but til then, he's one of the people that has some of the strongest ties on this tribe. He doesn't really have much in the way of a choice here. He has to go Harry and Bobby, and then pray. I would think that if it came down to 4 and having to vote, Pepper's the odd one out. 4. Johann - He's pretty much TOO safe at this point. I hope he doesn't get complacent. Really, I can't see a way he doesn't survive this tribe unless the weight of his ties collapses on him. 5. Harry - I want to see him make something of this but I don't really think he will. Others have remarked that he's come on strong, and the reactions are more than he had back in ZL and MI, so he's definitely trying to work it. He did the right thing. He just kind of got stuck because the 5th member being Loki meant that there would be that C-E temptation that will be there. I'll be watching to see if he can spin something if they just agree to boot Bobby and hand a "majority" to the ragtag group. 6. Bobby - You need to do something. You can't rely on C-E as much as you're going to have to. Well, perhaps you can, but it's no good way to go through this game. [/align] |

[align=center]◄ Cast Rankings - Final 17 ► 17. Professor Xavier: Yeah, still at the bottom. I just feel like you're so overwhelmed and it's kinda crazy b/c you've relished in this position all game. I think you played this round about as horribly as you could have. You literally had all day to decide what you were going to do. But instead of deciding, you told both sides you loved them, you were with them and then did that crying shit about why is this happening? OMG WHY? Bitch, you weren't the one in danger lol. You have Peter and X melting down...and Raven leaves? Ok. I think you might be fucked come the merge and I can't say I'm sad about it. Maybe I will like you again once you get knocked down about 100 pegs. 16. Bobby Drake: I hope you don't survive, but I know you will. I don't really see you leaving this phase and that's a shame. YOu will get dragged towards the end. Boring. 15. Ororo Monroe: Very stagnant. Lucky Anna was there for you when you weren't there for her, gurl. No idea where you will go from here but you have lost that spunk that I LOVED. It's like you took some dull pills and boo at that. Get your spark back plz. 14. Bruce: Kind of the same. Just dull. Not that I dislike Bruce, I can tell by the LL and others that Bruce is genuinely likable and I hope he does well in this game. It's just now I don't feel anything for him and he is kinda coasting. Like I said his story arc will be if he fails or succeeds at getting back at Genosha. If he gets the chance to even. But before then, yawn city. 13. Susan: Well Susan is fucked. Which we already knew. But SHE finally knows it, which is good I guess. There is nothing she can do. They won't win the team immunity b/c they won't want to and you won't beat Emma/Johnny/Ivan in any challenge. Well I guess you could, but I would not bet on you. You've been fun, quirky and slutty, but your time is up. Bye, girl! 12. Harry: Great job on the challenge wins and now maybe actually working your way in? I think when Bobby comes back you might have a hard time convincing him to vote with you but hell, you'll probably immune anyway so gj. I think you are doing about as well as you possibly could since you've been back, I just have more feeling for the other below you. Good work though. 11. Steve: Oh Steve I just am not rooting for you anymore. Not sure you even want anyone rooting for you since you are so willing to quit, but w/e. I think you actually played that voting council very well actually. You were blunt, arrogant and gave the "you're fucking kidding me right?" I think that kinda attitude really resonates with X. So good job. That being said you might be fucked. Who knows. You've survived this far, I'd love to see you use that, get some fire and kick ass, but you seem almost resigned to the fact. Idk. 10. Natasha: Big jump for her. Not that I love her not, but I do actually think she is playing well? I think Cat has some good ideas I just think she usually gets ahead of herself. She needs to realize that BECAUSE she limits herself socially, that she needs to play a limited strategic game. She overextends a lot and that doesn't usually work with her social game. She will be a target for sure come the merge, so I can't wait to see how she plays this. But she's made shit interesting on Pyro, gj. 9. Johann: Idk where this guy stands still. Is he with Loki? Is he with Genosha? Does he know? Is he fucked now? I just don't know. He is so MOR though and has been for a while. It's easy for me to forget him at this point but I have a feeling he will be important later on. Might have to play the middle a bit, but he should become more interesting. 8. Loki: What in the fuck was that? Like I get his net went out but I just don't understand running through literally every situation the day before these votes. This isn't regular Colo where you don't know who will be voting. YOU DO KNOW and you know all day. How could you ever miss the voting window? I don't think he fucked up b/c a tie is basically the same, but did something in there blindside him? If he was really undecided, wtf was he doing all day? Alol. I still think he is a smart player but I just feel like FT is so analytical and amazingly calm and calculated in his confessional and then when actually put to the test he goes all wonky. Should be fun to watch as Emma/him should be a big alliance center at the merge (if he makes it?) 7. Ivan: Still loving Ivan. Every post he makes makes me crack up. I just think he's been doing great and I love that he is positioned pretty well for a merge after so many people writing him off or laughing every time he survives. Well no one is laughing now. He is a lock for the merge and no one will go after him I don't think. He has Diamondpussy on one side and the Genosha peeps on the other. He might be looking at end game here. 6. Johnny: Johnny over Ivan here b/c he was actually talking at the meeting. He was right though - this was the best move for him. I DO actually think Elektra was loyal to him over anyone but Sue, but she played shit way wrong. It's not his fault Elektra, you should have been willing to dump Erik. Oh well, Johnny is owning right now and his favorite people are Loki and Emma so I guess it's obvi where he is going. I think X and co. might still think they can get Johnny. Maybe he will play the middle. I doubt that lol. 5. Hank McCoy: Alol Hank. Hank played this right. I mean, I guess X should have fucked Peter if he truly cared for Hank. B/c technically he chose Peter over Hank (kind of). So yeah, I can't wait for Hank to survive this and go all lone ranger on this game. A free agent. I love his disdain for all their tears. To be fair, they have been in a pressure cooker for a long time, but still, the crying is a bit much. I really want him to survive this. I like his attitude about this whole game and can't wait to see how he tries to navigate through a bunch of people he hasn't been in this game with for that long. 4. Pepper: Huge jump right before she goes :/ Anyway, what a masterful play she made tonight. And yes, I even give her credit for the tie. So many times to people just say YOU HAVE TO TRUST ME I AM THE BEST MOVE FOR YOU which is basically useless (see Elektra's cries to Johnny) and everyone see through that. Pepper saw the format, realized what is likely to happen next round, used her challenge ineptitude and ran with it. Confusing Loki and getting him all flustered. Obviously her goal was to be saved via vote, but this works too. Honestly if she had any card to play it was this one. I applaud her efforts and hope she can pull off the huge upset here. 3. Peter Parker: Not a good look on Peter :lol: The groveling is just not fun to watch, in any capacity. And seeing T18 for full blown grovel while sucking Xavier balls was cringe worthy. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Spidey has so much invested in this game it's hard not to root for him. I don't see him winning, but really good job tonight. I thought X for sure would vote him out b/c that meant he was safe no matter what the next round. But Spidey WERKd that social game and saved himself. Job well done, despite it being hard to watch. 2. Anna Marie: Goddess again. Take back those reigns. I knew she would and she got her way. It was perfect and Natasha is reminded who is boss. That's right, don't try to take control from her please. Getting Tony out was good for her. Now she can dispose of Bruce if needed, but only if they lose. If not, her and Bruce have the Titan thing I think. She will be the focal point of Xavier's target come the merge, but I'm hoping she joins with Emma/Loki and rid us of him. DO IT FOR LOGAN! 1. Emma Frost: DiamondPussy(tm) is on fire. She really has played this all perfectly. I guess Elektra thinks she's a cunt? Why? Lol. Emma played her hands great and shouldn't apologize at all. She is a cold bad ass bitch, but still with the social grace to have Johnny and Ivan literally salivating over her. Hot shit. Own your shit like you've been doing. You have a golden position in this game right now with ties to Loki and Anna. I can't wait to see how you play this all. ◄ Tribe Rankings ► Aero: 1, 6, 7, 13 = 6.75 Aqua: 3, 5, 11, 17 = 9 Terra: 4, 8, 9, 12, 16 = 9.8 Pyro: 2, 10, 14, 15 = 10 [/align] |

Maybe I'll do a full 1-20 ranking at the end, maybe not?![]() alol these guys. There were two interesting councils last night, 2 that just were... meh. This was one of the interesting ones, and I kind of wish I hadn't seen all the build-up to it and just seen it unfold. Shame on me for reading everything on the board. I think there was almost 12 minutes of dancing around people speaking cryptically before anybody made their move. Well, that's to be expected, but :lol: @ reading some of that stuff knowing the result. 1. Emma Frost - DiamondPussy (tm) on fire! Seriously, the whole "courting" of Emma was laughable, so her doing this was perfect. I seriously don't even know how those girls can be surprised. The three of them were making it seem completely obvious that they were all close, and Emma saw through that bullshit and turned the tables on them. From what I gather, she even tried to get them to vote Erik, but them not wanting to do that just proves her even more right. Emma, don't worry about them. You don't owe them shit. 2. Johnny - What May said about him doing confessionals or stuff. I barely have got any comments out of him on AIM when I tried asking, but whatever. When he posted that PM from DiamondPussy (tm) it was actually all I needed to know, because I can read a PM from her and know that the way she structured it what Johnny must be doing. Again, those girls were so so certain that he would be with them, and it was mostly their own inflated egos getting out of control thinking that no way could someone resist their charm! However, would he really want to be in a position where he had to win immunity on Tuesday? Well, he would anyway, but that's not the point. He set up his safety damn well here. 3. Ivan - The little engine that could. I was cracking up when he was like "how you say, pwntlol?" in that vote last night and how he would stop calling Johnny "Twinky". I think games always need someone like this, especially when there are characters of this sort. Just someone to ease some of the tension by being a goof. Logan was kind of like that a lot of the time, but now that role solely rests on Ivan's shoulders. Now, it's just a matter of them winning tribal immunity tomorrow (possible) or just making sure Elektra doesn't win individual (almost a certainty). The thing is, they wouldn't necessarily "need" him, but they know Elektra will run off to the Pyros/Terras if she makes it through, whereas the worst Ivan could do is go to the Aquas. It's hilarious to think that it's now taken 11 rounds for him to find one when he should be completely safe. Almost as weird as it is to think that it took Hank 11 rounds to survive a vote. :lol: 4. Elektra - The problem is perception. Like May said, she doesn't even realize how in danger she was a lot of times. To her, I think she probably took almost every round thinking that all is well. Maybe not quite, but she probably had a rosier outlook on things than she should have. This is the reality check that she needed, and while she very well may not survive this phase, I won't be celebrating her boot if she can't make it. She's had a ton of highs and lows, and I'm just hoping that she doesn't lose her shit (or hasn't already) and doesn't even make it to tomorrow night. 5. Susan - Yeah, sorry. She had something like this coming for a while now. She'll throw a bitchfit over being outlasted by Ivan (the audacity!), but it's not like he's not been playing the game. He's worked hard and handled himself correctly within this, just as Susan and Elektra have handled themselves poorly with this. It's just annoying to see Susan be so up in arms EVERY time someone does something that isn't what she said. Like how dare Johnny not want to honor some F3 that those girls offered to him when they did the same presumably with Erik, and did it also with Emma, which half the fucking game knows about! I think people had caught on to her brand of bullshit early on, but it isn't really til now when there was a point to doing much about it. ![]() Well, at least they kind of gave him a mercy killing. It's a shame that he had to go there and just miss the jury, because he was in a complete no-win situation there, and he was generally liked as well as connected to those people. 1. Parker - Yes, he's worried, and it's a natural fear with this situation. Now, the situation will be much more interesting if he wins immunity tonight, because if there are two Tesseracts here, there could be an explosion going into F4 of this tribe. Additionally, if he were to win on Tuesday night and gets it right then. However, he should be safe barring a Rogers immunity on Monday, but frankly? I'm not sure. I think Charles would dump Hank there to save this idol. I loved watching things unfold for him, and how just rightfully (and expected) pissed off he was at Steve (and Raven). Sometimes he looks like he's just being a bit more casual, but I know that behind the scenes, he's making sure that Steve (or maybe even Hank) is the one to go if they're voting Monday. After all, it was Steve that got them into this fucking mess. Oh wait, that didn't work trying to get Padme booted, but in this case, Parker is more of a priority to Charles anyway. I wouldn't even be surprised if he tries to overthrow him tonight though, but he wouldn't attempt it without a Tesseract, because tying it on Charles/Raven is a waste of time. 2. Hank - Yeah, he's happy he's back, and is having a fun time, but is kind of down in the dumps knowing he can't win... but at least it isn't holding him back. I appreciate his arc here and all, but I don't think he would get many votes other than 2nd place votes (to make sure someone gets 3rd). It's just too much time out of the game, even though he did earn his way back, and it wasn't really a secret this was happening. However, he's going to play on, and play for his allies and do his best here, so I'm happy for his dedication and all. Frankly, the fact that he avoided getting the minority vote is a testament to how his relationships were two weeks ago and how much he's put in since coming back. 3. Rogers - I thought a long time about where to put him and had him in any of these last 3 spots, but when I was writing up for the other two, I just decided to give him the 3 spot here. He fucked up, he may pay the price, he got chewed out for it, and knows he deserved it. Could he somehow get out of this? As I said, I think it may come down to either tribal immunity or individual tomorrow, and um... tribal immunity is a very real possibility anyway. Often times, I would hope for someone to get comeuppance for something like that, but I would like to see him be able to make the next phase. It may be tough though. 4. Charles - I don't disagree with most of what May's saying about him, because he really is getting way too far ahead of himself and is using the Tesseract to hold the tribe hostage. It's basically just going to make his fall greater when it does happen, and it will. I think either May or Gaga said in the round blogs, but yeah, if I were Parker or Rogers, I would be like "fuck this guy". If Parker gets a Tesseract tonight and Charles gets blown up tonight or tomorrow, I won't say he didn't have it coming. I do like it when seeing people playing with swagger when they can back it up, but him just being aloof or uncaring about the others' situations is a turnoff. 5. Raven - Yeah, I don't know. It sucks that she's fucked unless people really try to pull a fast one tonight, but come on. My take on it is, she brought up the question about bolding. Now, the rules didn't say that it had to be bolded, but it said "using that format" or whatever. The question wasn't answered, so I can understand her annoyance, but she was cognizant of the bolding there, so why not do everything even if you're not sure if it's required? Also, maybe I just haven't seen stuff because she only ever used to do it during the afternoon, but she hasn't shifted in like forever. Use all you have and at least have fun, and go out with a bang. ![]() Two self-votes in the same council. Fucking thrilling stuff. It was a good move for Stark and Bruce, and I even said that it is possible that they could take advantage of Logan and/or Natasha missing certain nights, so good for them, even though it sucks that Logan is gone. 1. Anna - Whoops. She votes and that was already after a couple votes came in, thinking she would be setting the tone. However, we've all been there. I can't even count the number of times in games when I wanted to utterly scream at one or more of my allies going. I have been entirely inconsolable some times when I've outlasted some of my allies in this series alone. This doesn't have to be the end for her by any means, and frankly, if it comes down to it, even if there is some alliance on the side with Bruce/Tony, would Natasha really boot Anna over one of them? She'd better not. Chin up, and get back on your game. It gets better! 2. Tony - Well, immunity made safety a lot easier, as well as Logan's absence. I guess I do hope he can get through this phase, but it depends on whose expense it's at. I'm just worried what the future holds because if he makes it off this tribe, who is he going to try to rope in? Don't get me wrong. There aren't really a bunch of people that I hate or anything, but he'll be a scrambling fool, trying to, as Gaga put it, set up some goat army and while there is a ton of challenge strength in other places, some of these people could take the top spots in the next format. I don't know. I like him for his work this past round, but am not too looking forward to what may come. 3. Bruce - I said when the swap happened that his picks were danger, but he may be in an ok-ish spot here. He may be in trouble tomorrow night, and he's been good to watch. He's been a good Bruce and I do love some of his random bursts of anger. I just don't think he's going to be able to take the bull by the horns here. However, the fact that he survived a single vote with Stark immune on this tribe is nice, even though it really wasn't the most ideal thing for some of these people. I'm glad he made jury though for sure, because he's had a TON of stuff thrown at him over the course of this game and so many times he could have been fucked because of stupid shit... like Remy and his reactor play. 4. Ororo - Where has she been? I honestly barely remember a thing about her the past couple days, and maybe part of that is that she can't be actively scheming with Susan as a tribemate anymore. I think she's just lost some of her steam, which is understandable. She'd put a lot in early on and I can't really blame someone for being a bit overwhelmed and worn out. Tonight, well... she still could survive, but that hinges on Anna, who is mad at her anyway, so I don't know if that will happen or not. With Anna, at least there's a tie. With Natasha as well, which I don't know if it will happen, it's 4-2. So we'll see. 5. Natasha - Yeah, I'm not sure about her right now. Like so cocky, and I'm taken back a bit to when I think I remember hosts talking about that as Tails. Sure, you have a lot of ways you can go, and you should be safe from two votes (Natasha might be immune tomorrow anyway), but this "mastermind" thing going on is just weird. Like May said, she put herself into a good position, but I don't know if that was the intention at all. It reminds me of Ultimecia to some degree once Tifa was gone where her gameplay was all over the place. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it caused disaster. I have no fucking idea what's going to come next, and honestly, I'm worried about what it may bring. ![]() I feel bad for Thor, because he's going to think this was all about him not being there. It really wasn't though, and that sucks even more because at least if he were in there, they would have had to vote him to his face and all and put the pressure on them. With that move last night, it really helped a few of these people out a ton though. It's weird to say, but everyone had some sort of benefit, be it large or small, from that. Maybe not Harry though? 1. Loki - Ok, so you've locked yourself into the F14 basically by doing that. GJ. I think he was going to be anyway though. Even if things went south and they booted Bobby, he had options with Johann, Pepper, and Harry to different degrees. I kind of laughed at his confessional where he "celebrated" his brother's death. I know I've done something similar before, in a game that he was in as well, so I laugh at people celebrating rivalries based on characters that may not be in-game rivalries. I think he's in a really good spot at this point though, and single digits is almost a given at this point for him and possibly beyond, unless he gets fucked by those pick-ems. 2. Johann - alol, this fucking guy. He lost his baggage in Loki, which sucks, but Thor had been playing up their connection I think too much to not get noticed. He doesn't have to look over his shoulder worrying about that shit at this point at least. I'm not entirely sure where he stands with Harry and Pepper, but he has his old C-E ties to the other two, and that's enough right now to propel him through this. "Close to Tesseract". Ok, sure. Well, he may very well get it completed before this stage ends if Harry doesn't win tonight and goes out. It was said somewhere, but I'm also still unsure why he was being weird about how the vote happened when asked in SG, but I think he's still trying to save face with Genosha, so it makes sense. 3. Pepper - Her paranoia wears me out probably more than it does her! She's basically been on eggshells since like the 3rd or 4th round even though the only time she was potentially in danger was the last Muir round if Shaw had won immunity. I wish she'd be more confident, because it could do wonders for her game here, and barring Harry winning tonight or Bobby winning tomorrow night, she has a chance. She's taken a ton of hits in this game and it's made it hard to watch at times. Hell, she said it about that first list. I looked back, and pretty much EVERY person that got her high enough to get 2nd is gone. That is insane. 4. Harry - Eh, he's been working harder since he came back, but I do think it's going to devolve into immunity or bust, and that's just not very exciting. I don't think he holds enough cards to get through here, and his best bet was probably spinning that vote on Bobby last night, but that would have probably required Thor being in there to pressure Johann. Pepper will drop him in an instant if she has to, and he's going to need to win challenges like his life depended on it. 5. Bobby - Yeah, he just seems so complacent, and his power core here isn't the same as it was on Utopia. Sure, they want to use him as numbers mean a lot here, but he is just lulling me to sleep at times. He still sends me PMs, but they really haven't had a whole lot of substance since back on the days on Titan. I think he's kind of similar to Ororo in that at least when on the tribe with Natasha, there was a lot more meaningful things to see from him. Now, it's like "pick it up, or just go".

Another 4 bite the dust. Well, 3 so far. By the time I get to Terra, I'll probably know who for sure is staying, even though we mostly expect a certain result.![]() alol @ the OUTRAGE. I feel bad for Elektra a little bit, but they chose their angle, and they chose poorly. It's that simple. How often do I see something like this happen with Johnny and his other characters? 1. Emma - DiamondPussy is cold, and some people are put off by it, but what the fuck ever. Just keep doing what you're doing. You don't need to have the explanations to these people that they want, because while you may have lied to them and gone against them, they were so full of shit with you. It's far too early to say if these rounds may be a huge turning point for her that can shoot her to the end, but they don't hurt. What do the others have to offer? Ororo? Anna? Does she even know Anna? Will Ororo even be around after tomorrow? (possibly). It's really fun to see someone like this get their way, and her ego isn't really so overinflated. Everyone else thinks that she is. Sure, she *cackles* about it, but she's just playing her game, and playing it super smart right now. 2. Johnny - Yeah, see, when he sees that this is going to be 16>14, he's going to assume that at worst there is another double in this phase/tribes, and there they can dump Ivan if it comes down to it. In his situation, he should just throw the challenge. I know I've spoken out about people throwing challenges in this game, but this is a smart one for him. If they lose, he or Emma will win immunity and he'll still get a Tesseract piece out of it. I've been hot and cold on him at times in this game, but I really am intrigued to see how he's going to work the merge. 3. Ivan - I don't like putting my Komrade at 2nd to last on the tribe, but it has to be done. I honestly can't wait til some of these people see the blogs and start bitching about how much love he gets when some of them get nothing when they were side-by-side. Sorry, but herding a goat army is not gameplay that is going to impress me much, especially when they are just so aloof. Ivan knows what he is, and he's playing within his limitations, and going above expectations by a lot. I remember early on when it would be a couple days when we would just pile up questions in his confessional and he wouldn't respond to them, but now he's really going into it and is doing shit unprovoked in there. His meltdown over Raven is hilarious. That relationship was so fucking odd and amazing. 4. Susan - It took a while, but it's finally set in. I actually do appreciate that she doesn't want to roll over and die. I also have decided that in this ranking, I will say something nice about everybody, at least until I get to the point where I am too disgusted to do it. One thing that is really nice about Susan is that she at least wants to be adaptable. She's at least trying to pick her battles well, even though none of them are winning ones. Honestly, the fact that she's willing to throw any of those 3 under the bus at the flip of a switch should be all the more reason to boot her, but what else can she really do? It may be going nowhere, but she does have fight, and what more could you ask? I think she's going way out of her way to bark up the wrong trees unfortunately and that may even further seal her fate, even though it's a done deal. ![]() These people are so melodramatic. Ok, I know that this was not a good situation for these people, but man, they can ham it up with the best of them. I know Parker didn't feel completely safe there, so I understand his uneasiness, but... yeah. 1. Parker - I'm hoping one of two things happens tomorrow. Either this goof troop wins tribal immunity (likely) or he wins individual immunity (certainly possible). I don't know. He and I joked about this shitty challenge that he brought into the world (or at least re-introduced it) and how awful it is. :lol: Either way, I'm hoping he gets that Tesseract. Either because tomorrow he could tie that vote, and he may even give up his idol to Steve as a big FUCK YOU to Charles, or he'd have it, and then he/Rogers could just ditch those two at the merge. I don't know what he's done wrong to be put in potential danger when he has been. 2. Rogers - Ok, you wanting to quit if you guys go to a vote tomorrow is fucking gross. Hike up your skirt, grab your balls, and man the fuck up. You know who values you on this tribe, so don't quit without at least having a shot to be able to still help that person. I'm just praying that Susan goes because the thought of those two merging may be more than I would want to handle. I really think he's better off with his boys here, and he's still got that potential in with Terra as well. Don't throw it away, because *gasp* I would be disappointed to see that. I do want to see him do well, but I want him to think of himself more than at least someone that he's known for a week or someone that he's known for like 2 days. 3. Hank - I'm glad he's back, and I do want to see him do well, but I also just don't know where he goes from here, which is why I'm confused about this. Oh, that's right, Pyro will want to pick him up. Oh, sure, of course. Because he won't have at least 2 allies left on this tribe and all of Aero. I'm impressed because while some people don't look at him as a contender or stuff like that to worry about, a lot of people look at him as someone that they want to work with. His evisceration of Susan in his confessional still cracks me up too. I may have to go back and look back on that. I know he's going to eventually want to toss his game away for one of these guys. I just hope he doesn't do it too soon. 4. Charles - Yeah, I get it that you don't want him to have the Tesseract in case you're voting tomorrow night, but really? Look at the odds. He is a contender to get it himself tomorrow anyway with 10 pieces going out tomorrow. I just think he's been losing the trust of someone that was completely loyal to him, and then he slaps him in the face by not giving him the 5th piece and further showing that he is completely with Hank, not those two. For what? No offense to Hank, but you knew him for like 5 minutes. So basically, gj Charles, you've set in motion a plan where if you or Hank do not win immunity tomorrow (or tribal immunity), you are going to lose your BFF because those two will bust their asses in the challenge. If Parker wins, he's going to have his Tesseract and will tie that vote all day until you bend. If Rogers wins, you can either vote Hank out, or make Parker waste his idol to get the same result. I know I said I would have nice things to say about everyone, but this round, I cannot. ![]() Hey, everyone voted this round! GJ! 1. Anna - I think things swung back well for her, to put her in a cushy spot once again. Unlike some people *cough* Charles *cough*, these people probably do value a Tesseract, so she'd better not be going anywhere. I'm glad to see her get back on her feet, because I didn't want to see her mourning for too long. At this point, it's interesting. It comes down to original Titan, but 2 were Utopia and are the two with Tesseracts. Yeah, idk about Natasha, but Anna is a good person to keep around, and she would be foolish to pull the rug out from under her. 2. Bruce - I'm still a bit surprised at his longevity, but I'm happy for him! Tomorrow he should be fine as well too. The difference between some is that they know that he is anti-Genosha, so while they may have been apart for several rounds, he's someone whose priorities they know to some degree. It's amazing because I swear I was looking at him as possibly being booted as 3rd on that tribe if items got too complicated, but he's still here. I don't think he has to do that much here, because he is the logical choice to keep. 3. Ororo - And just as Bruce it the logical choice to keep, Ororo is a bit expendable. I do appreciate her insight, as well as her rightful issues with the idiocy of Natasha's "oh, who wants a Tesseract?" shit. Well, there are only 2 fucking people it can go to. Why don't you just automatically give it to the person that is 3/5 and work with that, unless you're going to boot her! But back to Ororo, I do worry that she is not long for this game, and while this tribe could possibly win, that seems to be the best hope for her. I'm disappointed that it has to come down to this, but even with the possibility that all of Muir Island may be on jury (besides Shaw ) by the end of the night, she may have ties through them, whereas Bruce's ties are considerably less.4. Natasha - Seriously, there are only two people that can get the fucking thing. One is 1/5. The other is 3/5. How do you not take this up privately? Hell, even discuss it with Anna privately what to do with it. For her sake, there are some players that are giving her a massive amount of credit, and I guess though they may be somewhat infrequent, she has put in decent effort in PMs. It's nothing that anybody has ever shown. It's more or less hearsay. I think now she just seems a bit wishy-washy, and that's not a good look here. There was already that weird shit with the Logan vote, now this Tesseract bullshit. Play the game the way you want to play, please. Don't sit there and wait for it especially on something as mundane as that. ![]() Yeaaaaah. I don't even know how to rank these people, at all. I'm just not really feeling it here, I guess. 1. Johann? - He could have been in trouble tonight, but nope, still go for Bobby. If Bobby survives, then say bye to Harry unless he wins immunity (lol). If Bobby dies, then it could be interesting, but I'm not placing wagers on that right now. What's the worst that could happen? Loki will tie a vote with him if it ends up those two and the two ZL. If Bobby returns and Harry wins, could it tie on Bobby? I don't even know. I think he's as confused as the rest of us, but the waiting game is shitty. 2. Harry - Shocker! I think the last round and a half, he's shown to have some game here. He's definitely working on weaseling his way in and while some may dismiss him as the reasons being based about challenge strength, he has been trying to pry at relationships and see if there are rifts. I still don't see him surviving tomorrow without immunity though unless he wins a tie-breaker. I have no idea if Pepper would toss him away or not, but she has so few people, so probably not. 2a. Pepper - I think she's sunk anyway unless Bobby really drops the ball, but she has done well in this game. In spite of her random bouts of crazed paranoia and all, she's done her best to keep her focus in the game and has been fun to watch. The thing that sucks, and I hate for her, is that she really doesn't have that much to offer. I'm not saying Harry does, but in the next format, he actually does. She could possibly help rope in people better, but that depends on how set these people are. 3. Loki - If you thought he would get a top two spot after voting over the deadline when an ally was counting on him, you are crazy. That said, this wasn't disastrous, and there is chance to rebound. I don't even think he'll get the repercussions from this. People are focused on Johann being "close" to the Tesseract, so whatever Harry and Bobby have would probably lead to a Johann target first. I'm not sure where he'll go next stage, because his friends seem a motley crew. I'll wait and see. 3a. Bobby - He's really sort of UTRP gameplay here which is weird, and maybe I only think that because of his avatar or something. If tonight is a night when he survives a scare, hopefully he'll re-dedicate himself more. I have liked him from time to time, but he just feels like an afterthought so many times. He was friend of Emma/Loki back in the day, then he was friends of whomever on Utopia. If it were just his gameplay that seemed like that, fine. However, he hasn't had a persona enough to stand out on his own. Overall ranking - I'll do this later, and I'll probably revise this order anyway |

Ikr? I tend to 'edit' posts and then just copy the old shit into a new post to copy formatting but I never actually hit the edit. Idk why I don't just quote the post

Yeah, that's why I don't format the things much b/c it's too much work if I don't just copy shit. I'll just post the banners and let it be that. But I do the editing thing in TCs and all, so I've edited posts instead of posting new ones when reading votes. Doc Ock may remember that one! |

I feel a bit uneasy about doing this, because I'm more or less satisfied with these people and their existence in this game in some way or another. However, I suppose I'll have to find ways to rip someone apart because I need reasons for people being lower than 10 and all, right? Yikes. I may have to be at the peak of my nitpickiness here for some. We'll see. [align=center] #14 ![]() Yeah, some of the comments I see about her are so mixed, and even the biggest praise I've seen from others just seems so inconsistent with everything. I don't get it. She fell into that spot by "oops" voting Logan, and is probably held in higher regard than these people would otherwise just because she has that Tesseract. However, it also doesn't help them right now. Sure, there will be that female alliance from Titan/Pyro but it's not as though people haven't been looking out for that already. I don't know how much that will stand a chance. Of course, she'll probably stay around unless she can get all 3 votes, so we'll see. #13 ![]() Hey, I said I'm going to have to find reasons for ranking some low. By all rights, she personally hasn't really done (much) wrong in this game. However, she just is guilty by association. I think that if people worry about that being a trio, she's the easy one to take the fall. Well, there's her relationship with Susan as well, which is so lulzy. I'm sorry, but I've never seen a reaction like that before in a situation like this. Yes, I know how Ororo is, so that is a very easy person for her to get along with in this game, but that could work against her depending on how the tug-of-war works between some of those people like the greens in particular. #12 ![]() I feel like following him in this game is going to take years off my life. I'll give him credit because whether or not the things were there when he was "FREAKING OUT" about stupid shit, they eventually came to fruition. Answer me this though... did those things happen as a reaction to him doing that? I don't know that answer. He's been an interesting person to follow when he doesn't frustrate the hell out of me. I just wish at times that he'd stop and look around for a minute. It really feels as though he's the one getting in his own way, and that isn't fun to watch. #11 ![]() I like Bruce, and I'm glad that he's had some success in this game and all, but besides some stuff early on, when he was setting himself up well on Titan, that he's there just because they don't need to take him out. That sounds worse than what I mean. I just think that at the end of the day, most of these people have bigger plans, and he's not really part of that. He can ride it out a while, especially if his side manages to get a leg up these first couple rounds. I just think he's going to be someone that they can just "let go". He's been working hard and will probably keep doing so, but I don't know how much things will be able to change for him. #10 ![]() When I was doing this list that I'm working off, I actually thought he would have been higher by a couple spots. I loved the fact that he wasn't afraid to be heard in that voting council. I think he is going to have a tough road though. Where does he go from here? Well, he has Johann and Loki presumably, but those two are being tugged several ways. What does he want? I do like that he stepped things up a lot since he came back, and right now, he's got a lot of options. The thing that I worry about is that other than those two that voted with him, who cares about him? The fact that he was immune, it certainly made that threesome easy, but without it? How much can he trust them? How much should he trust them? #9 ![]() He was going to land somewhere between 7 and 10 this time, and I just couldn't settle earlier on when figuring it out. What are his options here? Charles and then linking up with C-E? Well, The other Aquas are pushing to get the Aeros as well. It's going to be a complete disaster and I think that those two groups are going to shoot themselves in the foot. The way I view Hank right now (I'm hoping this changes soon) is someone that is seeking his own identity. He comes back to the game to go with his best friend, who puts him in a potential danger spot this round, but tries to make up for it with Tesseract pieces? He just seems lost at times, and I'm hoping he'll get his bearings and march forward. #8 ![]() Ok, so he was kind of annoying with some of that shit last round, but I think this merge will be a second wind for him... for now. He really seems to have done a 180 with his attitude after they won immunity (lol) and claims that he basically has the fire in his belly. I'm hoping to see from him what we know is possible. However, this game, he's been jerked around at times in a bad way, and it worries me. Realistically it is entirely possible to see something like him use his connection with Johann to bring him/Parker together with the Terras, and then combine with Aero, if nobody beats them to the punch, right? I want to see the killer instinct, but I worry that he'll just be here only trying to dodge bullets shot in that general direction. #7 ![]() Yeah, I am a huge fan of him, but if I put him any higher, it would be solely on his character. With regards to his gameplay, he has a plan. Maybe the merge complicates things, but unlike some of those idiots saying that he isn't doing shit, he is. It is incredibly basic. However, he's in one of the potential swing groups. They could easily throw in with Anna and friends, or go with a few other options. He doesn't get higher because whether or not he would be in the discussion on that, I think the other two will make the decision for the group. That may sting and make him want to jump back with Charles or something, but I don't think that would happen unless these two are willing to line up with them. #6 ![]() Yeah, he's a douche, but he's a self-aware douche. That's what makes it tolerable. Thing with him, is he's played this position that I've seen him do before. He's falling back to make that surge. He did that with that pick of Ivan and tying up that trio with Emma and Ivan. I sometimes wonder if he gets his jollies off trying to put himself in a weird/shit spot just to see if he can power out of it. Well, whether that was his intention here or not, he's been able to get in an intriguing position. Right now, who wants him out? He's at 4/5 on the Tesseract and I doubt anybody gives a shit either. I don't think he's totally thrown away all of Genosha, but he doesn't look tied to them, and thus via working with Emma, it may not be "in the middle", but it's something that should be "out of the crosshairs". That's what he needs to do right now for sure. #5 ![]() alol this source pic. Anyway, I don't really care to look at that challenge thread when Charles was going off on him or something. Like, shut up. The best people in challenges fuck up something, or have an internet hiccup, or are just slow at something some time. I'm not really sure why he has this reputation around, well... I actually am not surprised, but I laughed when someone may have referred to him as whiny. :lol: Bottom line is, I'm hoping he leverages his idol as well as his items against these other people. He and Rogers could swoop in with some of these other smaller groups and really do some damage. #4 ![]() Where in the hell was he during that vote? Like, he was MIA until basically when he voted. That's an annoyance, but I guess it's better than the people that stand around and are like just "hey" if you can return with something to say. Where does he go? Shit, if it doesn't get to a point where he has to win a challenge to win the game, I really think he has a massive shot at this. I'll say this about a couple people at this point, and it's because of this very specific tie. He's got the C-E ties, has Harry in tow, and beyond that, they're somewhat connected with Anna. The question is more or less who Harry is closer to and what Johann may do. At least he didn't self-vote. :lol: #3 ![]() I'm waiting to see what he will do. I think he really is in one of the more pivotal positions in the game right now. He's got his 3 that survived Terra. He's got that tie-in to Emma from C-E and all. However, he also has Rogers and Parker possibly there. I know he's worried about the balancing act that he's going to have to do here. Can he stay true to C-E if they want to stay together? Can he stay true to Genosha if they don't just start trying to kill each other? I, for one, am looking forward to seeing what comes. #1 ![]() ![]() COP OUT! Yeah. I couldn't really decide, and I had separate reasons for wanting to put either of them at the top spot. The fact that they are in the same BT makes it so I know their conversations as well and can follow along and it really works. Frankly, I do expect some sort of thing with these two + Loki + at least the Pyro girls and Johnny. Does that tip the scale in Anna's direction? Sure. I just like the way these two are going about it, and even though it's F14 and not the time to completely focus on "omg who to go to the end with", I think they're both fearless and would just pick a 3rd and do it if they got to a point where it would be possible. I'm really unsure about their connections with the Aquas, for instance. Yes, they talked about how they'd been approached by Charles and all, but Anna wasn't all about throwing that challenge, and they may both just think "what a joke". If these two can just plow through the rest of the game, sure, do it! I won't object. That alliance that I think they want to work would be a good one overall if other things don't pan out. Go for it! [/align] |

ik ![]() I probably should have done a top 5 or some bullshit like that, because filling out the bottom part wasn't easy when I don't really have a handful of people that I have burning hatred for. |

This still feels like a situation spn will get out of b/c well....he's spn, but after that move I am smh and face palming at the same time. I just can't. Playing SUCH a good game and one dumb decision like that could fuck shit up. I still like him a lot and hope he can manage this horrid decision, so let's see






) by the end of the night, she may have ties through them, whereas Bruce's ties are considerably less.
so now my Final 20 rankings are gone :cry. But for whoever reads this after that's why it's out of order whoops.
