Not sure if them realizing none of them are smart is going to bode well in puzzle related challenges.

lmao...to be fair, Geo is the one who basically said "yeah there are no brain trusts happening here."

[LadyChatts]

Good for Sami that he figured it out, but he's coming across pretty cocky.  

[Lady Calypso]

Sami is lying about his age.

I mean....he does look older than 19, so it should work out in his favour...until his potential immaturity kicks in.

And as you say this, Sami figures it out.

Lol. I clicked submit and he starts to say it.

He came up with that 22 pretty randomly so I wonder if he'll forget and tell someone else he's 24.  I wouldn't have guessed he was 19. 

Also, Mike's concerned on his tribe that he's the oldest and won't fit in.  Usually the younger contestants aren't worried about that.  Nice change, I guess.

[Lantern7]

Rewinding . . . the dude with the backstory . . . I think he’s got a homunculus tattoo based off Fullmetal Alchemist.

[Lamb18]

Cody, let's make a hat instead of a shelter!

[Lady Calypso]

Oh look, only took half an hour for a guy to get wary of an all girls alliance.

[Lantern7]

Elevator salesman. Hopefully not door-to-door.

[LadyChatts]

So discount Magnum P.I. (that's who Cody reminds me of) is trying to plant the seed....that Justine is a salesperson?  

I'm lost.  Salespeople are scary?  Since when are they a threat?  

[truthaboutluv]

Wow, who knew being a sales person could be so dangerous? I mean I just think they're annoying but apparently in Survivor it's the kiss of death.

[Lamb18]

So they want to get out Justine because she's in sales! That's threatening.

[LadyChatts]

Well, a little over half an hour in and I've found people to root against lol  

Since Cody apparently just started watching Survivor during COVID I'd hardly say he is an expert at this game.

Hmm, Owen may dig himself a whole by doing the whole 'I'll let you know if I hear your name' to a couple of people already.  Hopefully he doesn't get himself too many #1s like Swati last season.

[truthaboutluv]

Wow, okay that attempt at an alliance with that dude didn't go so well. Although he's not wrong that the best way to not get eliminated is to just not go to tribal council.

eta: Okay that guy is overplaying way too hard and he is setting himself up big time for an early boot.

I think of all the people who've played the game and hid their military service or the fact they were a cop because they felt it made them a threat.  Who knew that the scariest profession of all was a salesperson!

[LadyChatts]

So I'm wondering if it's own boot tonight or two.  

[LadyChatts]

Some of these people are playing too hard, too fast.  Lindsay's goal was to have an all-women's alliance, while pulling James in as their fourth.

Cassidy wants to scheme quietly behind the scenes, and she aligns with Karla and Lindsay.  So two women's alliances?  Never seen more than one per season!

As soon as Cassidy said that, my first thought was "well, you're going earlier because of this." It seems like her saying that is foreshadowing her early exit.

[truthaboutluv]

I'm liking James so far (that's his name right. The chess player.)

[Lantern7]

Well, not like the show can prohibit same-sex alliances. I bet they’ve been working on that for years.

If James has an interview where he says “I’m playing chess, everyone else is playing checkers,” that’s five grand from the producers. Gotta be.

[Lady Calypso]

I think it depends on whether or not James blows up the alliance to Ryan and Geo.  If not, he's all in.

I have a feeling he will, especially since Ryan/Geo got them their supplies.

[LadyChatts]

I really don't like Sami.

[Lantern7]

“I’m not killing pets! I’m just reducing them to ash!”

I’d like to give Sami some slack, but it’s so hard.

Edited September 22, 2022 by Lantern7

[Lamb18]

Pet cremator guy - I don't think starting a fire with flint is the same as burning up a pet in a furnace. Isn't that just pushing a button or turning a knob?

[Lantern7]

“James mentions he’s from Philadelphia” is going to be a running gag this season. I know it.

[LadyChatts]

Karla and Geo having a genuine bonding moment.

It's a running gag, IMO, in real life, TBH

[LadyChatts]

Just now, Lucas Rowan said:

Karla is in the center of the women and James and Ryan and Geo.  She needs to move carefully when the time comes.

I feel like they are trying to set up a lot of undecided votes and blindsides, with someone being in the middle and being the person who flips.

[snarts]

I hate Sami. Like instantly hate. He'll probably win...

[truthaboutluv]

Damn, that's impressive. From a gang and juvie to a PHD from a top university. Good for you dude, 

Just now, snarts said:

Wait, who's Sami - mullet guy?

[Lantern7]

Seriously, here’s the ouroboros tattoo from Fullmetal Alchemist:

I think we have an otaku tnis season!

Edited September 22, 2022 by Lantern7

[dizzyd]

So the title is right off mullet’s ass. 

[Lamb18]

A boat - is someone else going to be pulled from the season?

[jsm1125]

Just now, Lucas Rowan said:

Tall Middle Eastern guy.  The "pet cremator."

Cody is the mullet guy.

Now, what's the deal with this boat?  Not another Jackson situation, is it?

We don’t think it’s a “one contestant for each tribe goes to an island to play prisoners’ dilemma situation?”

[Lantern7]

. . . and he can’t spell “Living.” Or maybe he couldn’t afford the “G.”

We got thirty minutes left. Think we might not have TC tonight?

I assume it's another "Go on a Trek and make a decision" adventure

[LadyChatts]

So is this the trek to shipwheel island?

[Lady Calypso]

So, Karla, Gabler, and Dwight are going on this trip.

[LadyChatts]

Why does Cody have to be the main narrator for his tribe?  I'm ready to mute the TV when he comes on.

[Lamb18]

Sounds like it.

He is VERY annoying.

You might need to program an auto mute for the guy

[Lamb18]

Sounds like the same thing about being safe, taking a risk, etc.

[Lantern7]

Okay . . . we got bags and cards.

Yay? 🙄🤷‍♂️

[Lady Calypso]

I know this is the same exact thing as the last two seasons, but they've made it MORE confusing with the bags somehow.

[truthaboutluv]

So they've changed up the risk/no risk a bit. They're doing it in front of each other now. 

[Lantern7]

“There’s only been one winner over 50 . . . and everyone shits on him!”

[LadyChatts]

So there's a twist this time-they draw cards, risk or no risk, and reveal them right in front of everyone.  In a bag they have a 50/50 chance of losing their vote or getting an advantage.  I guess they still find out at TC?

Karla took no risk, Gabler and Dwight took risk.  One of them gets the advantage, one loses their vote.  Do I have this right?

[Lady Calypso]

Just now, Lucas Rowan said:

Karla played it safe.  Dwight and Gabler risked.

Smart of her to do, especially when they revealed it in front of each other AND the fact that she could have lost her vote very easily.

[Carey]

Feels like there have been several winners over 50.  I guess not.  Maybe 40+, but I don't have the info in front of me
