I figured it would be fun to power rank the pre-jury members based on if things had worked out better for them (Wes and Max excluded of course)

A-LISTERS
Could have been a real force to be reckoned with had they made the merge

Johnny-san always came across as really smooth. He was really easy-going, said the right things, was active, and I think could have really been a force to be reckoned with if left in the game. It was really a Perfect Storm of events that led to his demise. He really didn't do anything wrong, or play poorly. It was just, selfishly, a good opportunity to take him out and leave more options on the table long-term.

She was a cold-blooded gamer. I think she really liked me, and we had a blast playing up our characters, but this woman could have done some heavy damage if she had made the merge - even if she would have stuck with me. She was eloquent yet aggressive, social and warm, yet calculated. I have zero doubt she would have made her imprint on the game if she had lasted just one round longer.

B-LISTERS
Solid all-around players who would have impacted, or did impact, events

I don't know if Lucy did anything wrong other than put her trust with Trip and have Trip betray that. She was likable enough even if you didn't want to be on her bad side. If Trip doesn't turn against her, she probably skates by for good a bit, even into the end game. I'm not sure how terribly strategic she was, but she was a solid player who was in a position to do much better.

One of the players I had an extremely hard time getting a read on, but a player who was crafty enough to do much better if things had broke her way. We had good banter, but she really didn't put much effort in with me until it was too late for her. Still, any player that is active but hard to read is a dangerous enigma in my book.

C-LISTERS
Made the merge, had their chance, things didn't work out

Posted Image

I wouldn't be surprised if one of you put her higher. I never really saw her at full force. We were pitted against each other almost immediately before the target swung around, and even then, her messaging style was particularly short and either too fluffy or too blunt. Not much social grace. She could have definitely been more trouble had we merged at 10 and didn't have the twist.

I will put her here because she made the merge. I do not know how she felt, not only blindsided, but angry about it! I can't comment much more than that as she was the only person at the merge who did not speak to me - well, one message in 4 days.

D-LISTERS
Nope.

Never met her. Never talked to her. Only player voted out before the swap that didn't return or had quit.

Well, it's pretty. I'm not really a fan of animated short gifs, but I can appreciate the effort, at least.

Not the GIFs - the arbitrary power ranking of the pre-Jury players - think it was a strong group

Romeo, I don't think there were really any weak players in this group (except, maybe, the Ruskie). As far as I can tell, everyone played with real intent, even if not all were particularly successful.
