Just thought I'd throw in Sophie's thoughts on the twist if anybody was interested.

"Oh I think the twist was shit, oh my god. To me the twist was great "in the moment" but at what sacrifice? The twist was so random that of course it was going to cause randomness at the tribal council but the vote wasn't being based off of real relationships that had formed, it didn't give everyone a fair playing field and an opportunity - to me it put a couple of people on the line immediately and that wasn't as interesting".

I would definitely flip Troy and Andrea on your list darkx. I don't see a winner's edit for Sarah either. I would probably put both her and Ozzy into the "hanging on by a thread" tier. Otherwise it looks good. Not that Tai will ever win in a million years IMO.

This is pretty spot on to how I feel actually.

I'm glad to see people warming to Brad too. He was, if nothing else, a compelling character in Blood vs Water and people tend to exaggerate people's flaws to an extreme degree on shows like this. People talk about Brad as if he's a child murderer in Survivor circles, especially the man-haters like Sophie and Shirin.

I LIKED Brad before this season! I thought he was one of the best characters in Blood vs. Water!

ETA: Yeah, he was my sixth-favorite out of twenty players in that season.

Wait...man hater Sophie? What? And for the record I like Sophie but can't stand Shirin, but I don't know how that relates to disliking Brad in BvW (when admittedly part of it actually in retrospect was via extension through Monica).

She's nowhere near as bad as Shirin in that regard (and I NOWHERE near) and literally my only exposure to her is on RHAP but her constant complaining about even the most inoffensive "alpha males" is just unbearable.

Just decided to do a little research and see how many winners have had a 100% voting accuracy (on the season they won for multi-timers). The number is surprisingly low.

Here is the raw list of people who won the game with a 100% voting accuracy:
Tina
Ethan
Brian
Amber
Yul
Todd
Parvati
Natalie W
Tony

That's the list on paper. Four people missed by voting for the other person in a vote split (Earl, Rob, Sophie, and Kim), and one person missed by an idol play (Natalie A). In addition, all of Cochran's misses were variables, but there were just too many for me to give him a pass.

In order. I know people will suggest the best season first, but it's important to understand historical context.

I think there are some skippable seasons along the way like season 5 you can skip.

Wow, I guess that is it because I was gonna say 12 but there are a lot of fun characters and exile island is a twist that is around from 12-18. Maybe 14 while I think Fiji is fun not everyone loves Fiji and there are real no advances in terms of evolution of the game in Fiji and there isn't much for returning player stock in Fiji.

This is exactly the kind of mentality that lets Sandra and Sandra-like players win btw -- a challenge strength-oriented tunnel vision that completely ignores a person's impact on the social politics of the game.

if anything, getting rid of sandra right before the merge before she can influence more people should be the way to go

Ugh. Just watched the latest episode.

Not a fan of that twist. Although I didn't rank him that way, Malcolm was definitely one of my favorites this season. I guess I took his presence for granted, assuming he'd at least be around through the merge. As is, I'm quickly losing interest in this season. I'll obviously continue to watch, but I think more than most my enjoyment stems from seeing characters I like do well/win. A poor winner leaves a bad taste in my mouth and right now, all of my favorites are either gone, in a poor position or practically invisible.

The worst part is I can't even be upset with the twist, considering Malcolm actually had the numbers; he just got idol'd. I'd be much more upset if one of my faves was eliminated because of their tribe suddenly being down in numbers coming into tribal. Bleh.

Fiji's winner was nearly on this season, and two people were nearly on HvV.
