Round 3 Discussion

[Brendan]

Move your discussion here folks! RIP Kylie, a true queen.

[Brendan]

With Kylie's elimination, all rodents have officially been exterminated from the game.

[Captain Sharp]

Next boots are Klaus/Herman?

[Brendan]

Sam caused so much delicious chaos. Now I really want Sam to be the one who needs the dog flu serum and goes begging Young Writer for it though. It would be so hilarious.

[Captain Sharp]

What's the flu serum for?

[Wes Anderson]

There will be a future round where snout fever comes into play! It’ll be nice to have the serum then. What exactly snout fever does, stay tuned to find out.

[Wes Anderson]

I hope Sam didn’t really float the idea that Peter got something for misfiring BEFORE passing off the schematics…

[Captain Sharp]

CONFESSIONAL PROMPT 6: Who in your tribe is being overlooked, either as an under the radar threat, or as a potential ally to pick up?

Foxy Fox is definitely being overlooked. I feel like they have potential to be a huge threat during merge.

Klaus feels a few steps behind.

[Snoopy]

SNOOPY IS DISAPPOINTED RUSHMORE STOPPED CONFESSIONALIZING. SNOOPY WANTS TO LOVE PETER SO STARTING NOW, SNOOPY WILL ROOT FOR PETER AND GUSTAVE TOGETHER.

SNOOPY IS QUITE INTERESTED IN DUKE NOW AFTER SEEING THE PODCAST. SNOOPY IS EXPECTING DUKE TO BE AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT TO WATCH.

[Wes Anderson]

Looking like an Ivanhoe blowout here

Maybe he feels Fox is so out in front that people are underestimating them!

[Wes Anderson]

MVPs for performance there were Duke and Sam but Richie got the idol and had his tribe win.

[Agatha]

is being able to send items secretly a new thing. love that

[Eli Cash]

Take your bets on who goes home here: Klaus, Royal, or mystery 3rd option?

[Brendan]

I don't think it's without precedent, but I can't necessarily remember which games may have had it as a feature off the top of my head. I think it's fun though, and there's really no reason not to allow it.

[Captain Sharp]

I can totally relate to foxy planning to sit back this round and here he is going and getting everyone on board with the vote while thinking he's being subtle. Learning how to ACTUALLY do nothing takes learning, as counter intuitive as that sounds.

[Wes Anderson]

Wow Suzy is in such a better position than I realized

And Herman is actually in a thing?

[Brendan]

Oooof Foxy in the thread...the pride before the fall.

And his comment is practically begging for someone to idol him out

[Bill Ubell]

I feel like Fox is going to stumble in whatever ways I have been recently.

I mean I have no idea how to not have opinions on things to do with the game, just everything else.

Thanks much for the home theatre though, I'm basically only going to be able to keep up with this game at all because of it.

[Captain Sharp]

Who goes home after Klaus on rushmore? I think it initially defaults to Royal, but he's part of Margot's core group that she ACTUALLY wants to keep safe. Plus, Buckley has integrated himself into the tribe despite not being in anything officially. Would she flip on the chair alliance?

On Ivanhoe, my cursory reading seems like Sam is the least connected.

[Wes Anderson]

It’d be a shame to see Sam go since he’s providing some good action. But Ivanhoe seems smarter on these challenges so it may not happen, plus I still think it’s Herman despite his group chat, with an outside shot of Duke. Maybe even Anthony if things go sideways but that’d be a shame!

I do think Margot flips on the Chair Alliance, so I think it’s Max or Steve after Klaus, and I lean toward it being Steve since there’s just fewer feelings in general about Max it would feel like a waste of a shot, and Buckley won’t let Fox go first.

[Brendan]

I still think the boot will be Herman if that tribe loses, and then will be Sam if that tribe loses again. I actually think Duke is going to make it through at least a few more tribals. Everyone likes and seems to want to save Duke, but they just think that other people will want to target him. But there are other targets on the board. Especially since Sam seems like he'll be targeting Young Writer, which I think could blow up in his face if he attempts it.

The other tribe will be dramatic if they keep losing! I don't know if I even have a prediction.

[Wes Anderson]

Yeah, I think it’s Herman too but just wanted to list all the possibilities.

One thing that’s surprised me about how this game has developed is that I thought, due to the binoculars, the timing of swap and merge would spread to become common knowledge, but since they were captured on both tribes by devious thieves, the owners are afraid to share the info. I’d still expect those players to be bringing someone into their confidence but so far, nothing.

That will be an interesting vote and it will be where the cracks start to show in the tribe because I am sure Margot and Madame D will go for Max or Steve.

[Captain Sharp]

Klaus getting blindsided?
