Just another obvious observation, but the staff is like 300% more active than the vacationers. I really have not taken note of who exactly it is, but most times I've checked in, there would be at most 1 vacationer and like 5-6 staff.

STAFFERS

I'm kind of impressed with Doug. I thought he'd be some retard weirdo like Clara but he's putting in some effort here.

Lady V <3 I want her and Stefan to run this shit with Stacey as the loyal third. She's hot. However her idea of wanting to get something going with Trey might not work as he's been targeted by Stefan/Stacey.

It's kind of weird to see that so many people are turned off from the Doc, I've never seen or played with Hexa so I don't know how he gets down but I thought he was good. Apparently he isn't in this game.


VACATIONERS

I have no idea what the hell is going on over there. Either I'm not paying much attention or these people aren't doing the confessionals enough to give me information. Plus my favorite movie of all time, Elizabeth, is on so I'm barely paying attention.

Zzy/Madison/Quinlan/Ellie/Farah/Rico are in an alliance? How in the shit is Zzy in an alliance? I swear I've never seen her online once. I'm reading her confessional right now and I have no idea how I didn't notice her, so weird. All I know is Preston better be safe, I'll be crushed if Merely goes early.

According to Ellie's confessie, Destynee will be the first boot which doesn't really bother me much because I haven't seen enough of her to care.

Lol @ Farns actually threatening Ellie in the PMs, goddess <3

Kendall not confessing but still being social enough to not be in danger is yay. But lol he got ID'd by Ellie already. MP just has a certain something which makes his ID so obvious if you know him.

Ok turns out that Marquon is a gamebot and Preston ISN'T in as much danger as I thought? What the fuck is this tribe doing.

I need some srs catch-up already :unsure:

A quarter way through confessionals and Stefan seems to be everyone's #1. I'm glad to see AKA doing so well already, he really is so under-rated for such a good social player.

AKA is not even underrated, he isn't really rated since he hasn't played a ton of games. This one might be his 5th though and if he kills it he is probably going to be #1 on the rankings? He has a 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th all with decent-sized casts and the larger cast since his 2nd is from SSH.

Let's hope ^_^

Destynee's avatar is amazing and I will be furious if she is out first. IANCD Presents games are so racist.

Alright, so I just got fully caught up. The tide turning against Doug does not surprise me. I'm not sure what the difference is between getting rid of him this round or next round though. I don't know if it's that they don't have a "majority", though that really only matters for Survivor anyway. I guess they've written off Craig, except for Doug, and that's part of the reason he's coming under fire here. It's good to see Vi be able to find a place here. Now, we'll just have to wait and see if the work schedule makes the game schedule untenable for Vi. I'll finish off with Stefan here. He's thoroughly enjoyable to watch, but I don't know if he has played before as a "frontrunner" or how he'll respond to it. I think he's going to have to be careful, because while there are people like Stacey that will "NEVER BETRAY HIM!" (why the fuck did that idiot make up that retarded nickname for Stefan?) when people start to realize that he's everybody's #1, I could see them turning against him, especially in one of the funkier formats. We'll see.

The other tribe fucking sucks as a whole. A few individuals are ok, but by and large, it's just thoroughly uninteresting there. Even probably their biggest "character", Madison is dull and I don't even care. Unless the format changes and someone randomly decides to save Destynee, I guess she's toast. She's not even been around to give her customary "I suck at challenges, I'm no threat" spiel :lol: After she goes, I don't know... Marquon? Preston? Carl? I probably won't even know until the votes actually come in because these people suck.

Clearly the format changers are a huge hit and were a very successful inclusion.

While I wouldn't mind watching people fighting over what format, I can understand hesitation. People probably will want to save them for the merge or the swap that some are speculating :wacko: Of course, for 8 of them, they won't be there. I don't really mind them leaving it as is here. I want people to have the regrets later in the game when "Shit, I wish I had a Survivor round here" and they're stuck with something that will ruin them.

When I remember/have time to, I'll do my rankings in the round threads. Maybe I should have looked at the vote tallies first though.

24. Destynee - I hate putting her here, but really, I have no choice. I'm so thankful for the last minute replacement (well, bumping up from a standby) but in terms of this game, I cannot think of anything that Destynee did other than getting voted out 12-0.

23. Craig Lee - I think he was one of the people that I had to make a thread for to even TRY to get something out of. He's a nice guy and all, but he just never got anything going here and I'm much more interested in every other person from his former tribe.

22. Carl - I feel like he's on thin ice. He really needs to do something other than let people push for the inactives to go because on the activity scale, he's towards the lower end. Hell, I remember one of his posts in his confessional where it seemed like he had talked to all of about 5 people. Yes, he may buy some safety for a round or two, but he needs to pick it up in a big way.

21. Ivanka - Ok, so she makes the gambling puns and all, but I can't think of much else about her. She just doesn't leave much of an impression on me right now. She gets mentioned by a few people, but there's not a whole lot there. I don't know.

20. Elektra - This seems like a lot like Ivanka, but at least I hear her name pop up a considerable amount more. I feel prejudiced because I find that I basically can't not root for Elektra here considering the player, but so far there is not much of interest to comment on here.

19. Glen - I think he's going to have to make a move and start sucking up to the powers-that-be very very soon. The tribe isn't going to let Madison run this and call for his head and all just on a whim, but he needs to find more connections.

18. Preston - This is probably a touch low because at least Preston is self-aware about how annoying he is. Plus, I like how he's becoming a shit-stirrer over there. Of course, there's a lot going on over there, and I could see him getting the boot in the early stages of this game. There are alliances coming together and while he may not necessarily be the direct target, he's not far down on the batting order.

17. Marquon - I don't know the person behind this character. I just remember seeing all this "I'm gonna run this shit" and all and if I ranked the tribe in terms of how proactive they were being, Marquon would be somewhere in the middle. We'll see. I'll be keeping my eye on this guy.

16. Clara - I swear sometimes she seems like some sort of Ricey-lite here. Maybe I'm just basing that more on the game that the two of them played together a month ago. I don't know why she didn't play in the challenge though. I mean, you're here, and you can sit around and talk shit the whole time, but didn't sign in? Yes, I think she said that she might not be able to be there or something, but why not just sign in and fake it? idgi. I find it hilarious that DoDo has taken a liking to her though, and while she's a target of some, I think she does have some shelter.

15. Zzy - Zzy is part of some sort of majority over there. The funny thing is that I don't think that half the people realize they're in that alliance. I think some of the players and characters on this tribe leave me still having hope for them in the future. Hope that I won't hate them, that is, and she's kind of in the thick of it over there.

14. Trey - Ok, he started out lazy as fuck. He very easily could have been first boot if he didn't move his ass the last 30 hours or so to get to know these people. Now, I think he's actually in a decent spot though and seems to be part of this power core, or at least one of them. There are far too many overlapping inner circles within this bigger group that is about 7 people.

13. Stacey - If I ranked this solely on how much I like the person here, Stacey would be in the 20s. I'm sorry. I can't with that font. I remember when Rudy did some shit in LotR, and that was atrocious, but it was at least readable without hurting my eyes. As for her gameplay, well... I don't see her being a target any time soon. She's trying to firmly attach herself to Stefan and should be in a decent spot. I don't know how these people can put up with PMs from her though.

12. Ellie - It cracks me up how Ellie is like bashed over and over by Madison and Kendall. I think she's playing a quiet game but she's making it so the majority won't want to boot her anyway, so even if those two get in rage mode, it shouldn't happen, at least not before the merge. It's still early though, but I want to see where this character goes.

11. Farah - Farah was one of the standouts on the first night and second afternoon. Since then, she's kind of tapered down a bit. However, she's in that "alliance" that has been mentioned before and is unlikely to come off as one of the more threatening ones within it when the merge rolls around. I do kind of wish there was more of her here though. We'll see how this week goes.

10. Madison - I said it before that I don't like the characterization here. She's supposed to be 8 or something and be a brat... not to act like some teenage bitch. While some wouldn't mind seeing her ass gone soon, she is also in that "alliance". I think she will have to watch herself if she gets too aggressive about pushing these targets that people don't really have problems with. MO, LS, or BB could easily be the end of her though. The other three formats, she can coast to the merge.

9. Quinlan - Ok, he's definitely got his head in the game, but he's already got the stigma that he's slimy. People know he's throwing people under the bus and all, but he is part of this "wtf" alliance and probably is sitting pretty for a bit. He needs to be careful, but overall I like what I'm seeing here.

8. Beata - She's another one that I found myself surprised that wiggled her way into a strong position. She had a slow start, but closed the weekend well. I shouldn't be all that surprised though. I remember last game when everyone was pretty sad about her boot and all. I think she'll be ok here. Her random Spanish stuff is one of the weirder things I've seen in games though. She definitely has options at this point though, since she is not firmly attached to a group or anything, but people would want her.

7. Oskar - For someone who is like barely "playing the game", this is probably surprisingly high. But this is exactly what I expected of him and he's delivering. I don't think he's long for this game, but he'll keep being "Oskar" for as long as he's around and that's all I can ask.

6. Doug Smiley - I thought he would get caught, and he did. He was teetering on the brink for a while where if he cooled down, he could have done very well on this tribe. Instead, he apparently kept pushing too hard and that's getting him into trouble. I haven't even looked at how the votes came in, but this sure will be a wake-up call for him. I hope he can hang around for a little while though because he can be a good foil for some of these people.

5. Dr. Donovan - I would have had him probably around the middle, but there's one thing that I very much appreciate about him. He's the only person that even decided to THINK. He was saying before the round about how it would be a waste to burn the Survivor rounds and actually had a mind to think of a way to use them to his advantage. The rest are just willing to sit back and be content. Now, while he got all cocky in his confessional about "Oskar won't even see it coming! Haha!" he seems blissfully unaware how low some of the others hold him.

4. Lady Vidalia - I was worried at first, but Lady Vi has basically made up for like 4 of the last 5 games that we have been in together in some facet. I was a little surprised to see how quickly she could move up in the ranks, but I think she'll be in for the long haul here. The one question mark is the work schedule. Last game, that was miserable to host.

3. Kendall - Another person that I probably wouldn't have had so high if not for the little things. So Kendall is apparently in some alliance that she didn't even really know about, with some people that she doesn't really speak that much to. God, I love those alliances. But making a Stacey hate thread bolsters her standing here. I fully expect to be hot then cold on Kendall so much here.

2. Rico - Some people are sick of his shtick, but I like it. This really just feels like such a "gnarlsy" performance here and it's not something that I don't enjoy. I find it strange how I've been a co-host 3x as many times as I've been a co-player with him though. Some probably have it out for him, but I think he's sitting right in the middle. I really don't see a way that he's going too soon. Maybe once the jury gets around he might run into more resistance, but for now, he's good.

1. Stefan the Magnificent - He needs to be careful. People that are THAT liked can easily run into trouble because of it. I'm not sure if he's necessarily calling the shots here, but I think that everyone would want to hear from him before making a call. When things start to break down after booting inactives, I don't think they'll be looking at him though. When the merge comes around, that's another story and he'll have to be extremely smart about this. I've watched him in I think almost all of the games he's played either as a lurker or co-host, and I think this is new ground for him though. He's definitely capable though.
