super simple stuff: if 24 hours goes without a cut, the next person goes. miss two cuts and we might replace you as a ranker.


so with that in mind xof has not long

390. Ash Ketchum (pickemgenius) - Destiny Islands

Image
SUP UMADBRO? I GOT AN AWARD AND YOU DON'T. IM THE BEST I WIN THE GAME.


While Ash's confessional is a pretty alright read, cuz I mean, what PEG confessional isn't hilarious? He didn't really impact the game much at all. He got to pick a tribe once. But he got voted out over someone who hadn't really been contributing much yet. And that was about it. Fairly forgettable game from an unforgettable player.

389. Two-Face 2.0 (animorpherv1) - Conclave (8th Place)


Image

"Ugh. How do I get out of this."



I don't believe I'm alone in finding Conclave's post-merge to be pretty boring. Overall, looking at everyone's confessionals makes it clear that spectators should be allowed to post in confessionals or else most players will lose interest. This was the case with Two-Face (as well as most other players that made it deep) so there obviously isn't much to sink your teeth into. Two-Face's role in the story of the season was something seen countless times: an indistinguishable number in a majority alliance for most of the pre-merge, before being pagong fodder at the merge, leading to a boring unanimous vote following the very contentious Riddler boot. Normally, this story would make someone a middling character, but there wasn't much of anything going on with Two-Face as a character aside from the role he played game-wise, which puts him much lower for me, especially when compared to any of the pagong victims of Season Finale. Usually someone in an underdog role is compelling by default, but that just wasn't the case here.

I checked Cephrir's edgic from that game and while he had a good first couple of episodes, everything from Episode 3 on is MOR2/UTR1 range, which feels accurate.

388. Bullet Bill (KageLord) - Mushroom Kingdom


Image
"I'm surprised I have made it this far with definitely subpar play."


So are we. Anyway, Bill's secret group died off early, so we don't get to see any strategy from him in there, and his confessional is also terrible, and I didn't get a sense from reading through the game that he did anything or mattered despite somehow making it to 10th place.

I remember I won an extra FTC vote at the auction, but it required that I made it to the F2 with the player I chose. And I chose Bullet Bill even though I wasn't really aligned with him because I needed to get to the end with someone I could beat.

(Naturally, I played terribly and was booted that round anyway.)

387. The Riddler (Axxle) - Arkham Asylum


Image

"Riddle 1: What room can no one enter? A mushroom!"

Riddler had the potential to be an interesting character. He created his own riddle thread and was generally fun. He also happened to be my handcuff partner, so I enjoyed playing Password with him for an immunity challenge. Unfortunately, he went inactive after the swap and was booted in a landslide so we never got the chance to reconvene and dominate the rest of the game. That was sure to happen, right?

No?

Tbh this is a little late for this feedback, but it probably would have been better for the rankers to each list their top like 250, and the top 200 vote-getters would be entered in a top 200.

Because we have a long time of relatively boring elims to work through.

It was cool when we were getting through 7+ a day!

I like seeing me not get eliminated, and wouldn't have enjoyed being thrust into a "bottom 279" group without knowing further details of where those characters would sit.
Although I suppose I possibly will have some characters that make it that far.

Yeah I'm expecting a slower pace for when we get to more complex characters but waiting 20 hours for a 3 sentence write-up is blegh

386. Homer (D3f3nd3r) - Season Finale


Image

"No talk or discussions just yet. Maybe I should start?"


Homer is from Purple Reign, arguably the most boring tribe in MS Survivor history. He doesn't seem to have been a major part of anyone's plans. Homer was unceremoniously voted out third in the tribe. There wasn't any controversy to the vote; Hawkeye was interesting in a negative way, and Barney was apparently cool I don't know I've been told Barney was entertaining, but Homer was just... Homer.

I really wanted Homer to mutiny!

As for the pace of this, generally I've been trying to keep myself one cut ahead so that I can always just post something when I see it's my turn. But I don't really mind this pace since it's giving me time to look into some games that I don't know as much about as others.
