Episode 08 Commentary

[Ralph]

wat up homies?

what?
are you the dude at the top?

[Yul Kwon]

I'm so over Stacey's pity-party confessionals.

[Mad Dog]

Can we have a taste?

[Ralph]

can someone explain to me how Jeffs ( ( ( Jeff ) ) ) ( Other people + someone else ) thing works?

[Caryn]

This "lay low" strategy is stuff is some serious pussy shit.

[Ashley Underwood]

can someone explain to me how Jeffs ( ( ( Jeff ) ) ) ( Other people + someone else ) thing works?

example using me in Namibia:

My alliance from F9 was: (((Ashley) + Sophie) + Whitney + Julie) -- Ashley is in its own brackets coz it was my #1 alliance...with myself. Sophie is in the next layer because she was my closest non-me ally. Whit and Julie rounded off the alliance and were equally close to me.

Jeff has begun using like (((Jeff))) just for himself lol which I am reading as a sign that he trusts himself wayyyyyy more than any alliance he is in, even the closest alliances to him. Aka paranoia.

[Ralph]

oooh okay thanks ash bash!

[Ashley Underwood]

yw <3

[Ralph]

That welcome to Thakali thread is a pretty funy one

[Mad Dog]

Jeff for MVP confessionals?
I can see why the hosts love him.
It makes me sad I'm not in the game anymore, playing (and being played?) alongside him. The Jeff + Kimmi alliance makes me jealous seeing them still playing on without me :(

Also, go Debb! I think I'm her no. 1 fan.
Has she stopped with her shtick now that she is legitimately deep in the game now?

[Jenna]

Alol, can the Chris cartoon picture from the Thakali thread be his official boot icon?

[Ralph]

Debb is amaaaazing
it took me a bit but I'm firmly on the debb love train

[Lisa]

Truth be told, I will totally support a Jeff win since the guy is a clear winner in my eyes.

[Jeff Probst]

Anyone else extremely frustrated that Chris completely ignores the obvious target he has on himself? I even brought it up in his confessional and he chose to think he was invisible -_- wigga plz...

[Caryn]

NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA NIGGA

Don't be a wimp Probst, just say the word.

[Mad Dog]

I think he thinks he may be a target for later on, so doesnt want to step up right now and make himself a definite target?
But yeah, he would be my first target if I was at merge. I mean, was the guy ever NOT immune?

[Mad Dog]

So Kimmi and Jeff know each other have the idols.
Jeff's alliance wants to vote for Tina, but he obvs doesn't want to.
Kimmi's alliance is voting for...Stacey?

There's a lot of floating going on right now, but I guess it's better to be a wildcard than for it to be known solidly where you stand, that way you will gather as much info as you can to make an informed decision on your own best game plan. I guess that is what Debb is doing.
But at some point you have to decide, or else no-one will trust you at all.

To me, I think that presents a great opportunIty for someone to step up and take charge, all the others will be too afraid to make waves to challenge it. Plus bonus credit points when youre inthe finals

[Mad Dog]

That's true, I guess people are looking for a solid leader and plan.
There are too many wishy washy people though that everyone is afraid of putting their neck on the line and having it backfire.
I get it that it's risky, but we have all indians and no chiefs right now.

[Jenna]

I'm holding a prayer circle for Guru Nanak's safety.
