Jane, I didn't know what the mice/shoes were either, but apparently it's a reference to The Royal Tenenbaums.

I really don’t think so. She has supporters. I think Herman, despite seeming more able, is in more danger.

I want to root for Kylie but she needs to confessionalize.

What about Duke? So far he doesn't seem to be super popular at Camp Ivanhoe either.

I don't really understand the blue tribe, so I wouldn't mind them go to TC so we can get a better picture of their dynamic. I understand the red tribe better and I'm interested in their dynamic too. It would be interesting to see if Royal can sneak by another round. It also seems like there's some anti-klaus (or is it steve? i dont know whos who) sentiment among margot and her circle, plus Foxy seeing Buckley as their secret weapon is an interesting twist.

From what I see, Richie seems to be in the best position on Camp Ivanhoe. He's got his hands in all the cookie jars and yet is perceived as less threatening than, say, Oracle or Gustave.

Actually if Madame isn't talking to Klaus like it says in Klaus' confessional, he might go out easily, since that means both of Margot's alliances will want him gone. Interesting interesting.

Sam isn’t in the best spot on Ivanhoe/blue either. The Four Horseman didn’t make the episode edit but that’s just cuz that tribe didn’t go to Tribal.

SNOOPY WANTS BLUE BLOOD. SNOOPY DOESN'T LIKE ROYAL BLOOD AND SNOOPY THINKS RED ALWAYS BOOTS ROYAL THERE.

Blue going to TC is probably just an easy consensus Herman boot, strongly doubt anyone there will want to save him.

I actually think Klaus goes over Royal next on Red. Royal seems to be doing a bit better in his standing with Fox so Margot and the D can probably push the vote onto Klaus.

The trick on this challenge imo is, like, if you wanna hit the 10 in top right, aim at the 7 and try to miss up and right. That way if you’re off you still hit the board no matter what and probably a good number. And so on. If you wanna hit D1 aim at D2 and miss up. Etc

yeah, i was thinking what i would do is calculate the groups of 9 cells that are worth the most after every shot, recalculating as you go. i don't think i would count on being able to hit a specific timestamp, as historically, i'm terrible at that

It is actually possible to nail it though. You can use the challenge countdown timer to see when seconds are turning over in the forum

I wonder if any player will misfire (0 or miss the board). Hopefully at least one player!

Sam says that she intends to, so that should be fun! And Royal may attempt it as well. We'll have to see. We know that both have no problem hurting their tribes in challenges.

I kind of doubt we'll see an accidental misfire though.

Idk, since so far people are going for direct hits (1s) they’re really close to the misfire (0s). But I would not be too surprised if it doesnt happen.

Ivanhoe developing good challenge strategy whereas Rushmore had players just walking up and firing away without warning

Then again it really all comes down to execution. Steve whiffing on the bullseye could help Ivanhoe more than any strategizing can, while deadeye Margot sniping that center square may have undone that damage.

Foxy's video confessional sounds super dramatic and intense.

Feel bad for Herman, a new player who is clearly trying but no one wants to pick him up. I don’t think going high effort on challenge brainstorming will get it done either, although it certainly doesn’t hurt!

SNOOPY THINKS THE FOX IS ON THE RIGHT TRACK BUT IS NOT COMING OFF THE WAY THE FOX WANTS TO COME OFF.

AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO CONFESSIONAL, SNOOPY IS QUITE WORRIED FOR THE FOX. STICKING TO RUSHMORE MAY NOT BE THE BEST DECISION HERE.
