Anyway, the people that are gone? Odin - good. Eddie - eh. Gwen - for the best. MJ - hmm. I had more time to think about this, and it's disappointing. Like, all these people obsess over these bloodties, what items they have, who is remaining, who can play shit, etc. They obsess in the beginning, laughing about how the green and blue teams filled up fast as fuck, especially with some getting pushed away because the teams were filled. So what do they do? Yeah, Parker was right. MJ herself? She was a perfectly normal person that could have probably fared better on another team. It's funny to me because in reality, was the "Spider-Man Alliance" an alliance because of characters, an alliance because they had formed one, or an alliance in the other sense... where people assume they are, and nothing will change, so they may as well try to work together? I don't know if it's so much as being a Spider-Man Alliance issue here as it was that people weren't seeing the big picture that they always are so diligent to keep up on. A lot of that had to do with the fact that she was really never more than a 5 or 6 to some people. Outside of, well... the Spider-Man people, I don't think she was even a 3 to anybody else, and when people have conflicting alliances with people opposing eachother, well... that's not enough to keep her in the game in this format. Now here's the thing though. She seemed pretty average at best in challenges that I saw her in. It was at least less than I expected, and maybe held her to a standard that was too high? I could actually see her doing ok there on RI though if she gets her shit together and especially if some of the earlier competition gets thinned out before she even has to have a go. Really though, is there a whole hell of a lot of competition that will be there besides Beast? So many are unknowns to me or people that I know won't pose a threat. When it comes her turn, 7 will be fully dead, and she'll just need a top 4/8 to advance, 4/9, and then from there 4/6 to get back in. That's not that tough, but I guess it depends on if people try to send people in to make sure that someone loses Arena, or someone that will beat people on RI. Good on Purple for holding it together and just saying "fuck it, no powers can be played next round anyway", and if they want to, they have a lot of options. For one round only, they may be interesting, even if the vote ends up not being interesting. Shaw is already talking about possibly going after Jean, but he thinks Kurt may not be for it? Is the friction between Kurt and Jean not known? If Harry is available, I think they will definitely go for him though. Jean may try to push for Norman (or maybe even Kurt), but I think that they are wary of the same things that are going on with Yellow. Someone that wanted to go with all their friends on Green... someone that may be poised to get double powers too. So I don't know. Blue is interesting. Frankly, I'm surprised that Charles, Ivan, Scott, and Raven didn't say "fuck this, let's go for the jugular". Odin would self-vote, those 4 would vote Azazel/Clint, Clint would vote Ivan, and Azazel/Justin/Erik would make 4 on Odin. They'd have to spend a Hulk Smash to keep Odin in and then they could get 2 for 1 tomorrow. They still probably can anyway, but barring items, it will probably be 4-4. Yeah, we'll see. Yellow has so much drama going between the people in the "middle" and Parker particularly. Will they fold? Will they even take a shot at Tony? Well, with Tony in particular, the people that would be needed to do that are not really happy with eachother right now, so coordinating it could be a mess. Green? Well, it's one of the girls for sure, right? I don't know if that will change, and the only question is that they've been debating which one to do. Since they all presume some sort of switch, they may worry less about Yuriko being worse than Susan in challenges anyway. Orange will depend on how aware people are. Will Curt play some sort of immunity? Can he? I'm not even sure. If he can't or doesn't, then he should be the one, I think? I haven't really got much from those people lately, as they don't confess much. I could see Bruce taking the fall if it comes down to it. |

Something about Wagner saying that he sees Prof X and Azazel as being in control of Asteroid M makes me laugh. |

I saw that and thought I misread that somehow. I don't know if he thinks they're just "putting on a show" in public or something, but like... hasn't enough information been disseminated via SGs to get around to know that they are not friends? |

I dunno where he's getting it from. You would think that it would be pretty obvious but maybe it's just obvious to us because we're getting the whole picture. Most of his other observations are completely bang on and this seems so out of place. |

Well, another thing to consider, look at Kurt's group. He's with Vanko who doesn't talk a whole lot about the overall dynamics in there (or at least hadn't early on), except maybe that he was in deep shit and all. Kurt also did say in a confessional update tonight that apparently he has not been talking to his tribe about what they hear about other tribes. Pepper, Jean, and Sebastian could be reliable sources of information, but if they're just laid back because they've been on cruise control as a tribe, they may not bother, though that gives them something more to talk about, especially since 80% of the game is expecting a shuffle of sorts. |

So glad that stupid cunt MJ is out. That idiot constantly rags on my social game and the only person she could do better than in this game was Jane LOL. |

Whoa, and I don't know if it's just Jean conceding that Harry will win immunity, but she wants Harry out because she doesn't want Erik getting an idol? Without looking, I think there are two groups that are down to 2, and I think people will be concerned about that. Hey, why not "Twilight" it and blow through an idol by booting two from the same and killing the group? alol? Just because people are on the verge, doesn't mean it has to happen soon, or this coming round. Hell, without looking, if there are two duos, is it possible to knock out BOTH? Probably not. That would be pretty hilarious and probably require some cross-tribe coordination to make it so, but it would be kind of hot as fuck if so. |

I have a lot more to say, hopefully today I will get a chance to say it. For now though: http://z13.invisionfree.com/Marvel0us/inde...post&p=22145825 X-Men is next And Avengers is later on, but I did Iron Man last so we can end with Stark Tower.Also I kind of hope he does use Loki's Staff tonight, even though I think it might result in a Logan boot if Curt uses the Arc Reactor, that's gonna suck. They are not the most dynamic tribe, but I still love all of Titan, just because they are so lax. |

http://z13.invisionfree.com/Marvel0us/inde...post&p=22146043 That entire post, especially the last line, is exactly why they should have booted her last night. Peter is right about everything. And Steve and Thor are fucking idiots. |

I'm pretty sure if any of us threw random true or falses into that thing, we'd all get that faster than 35 minutes. What a disgrace. |

It took him 9 minutes to even make his first guess anyway. It's not like he was spamming that with tfttf shit from 2 minutes in. |

And Avengers is later on, but I did Iron Man last so we can end with Stark Tower.
