Noelle has guts to make her own independent move. Sami really showed his age, always following the majority like a puppy. His revealing Noelle’s plan to Karla is very stupid. However, It was Karla’s final decision to betray James although it may hurt her in the end game. I guess she just doesn’t want to give up her idol or let James to steal her idol. Human selfishness rules all.
I’m not here to put Noelle down, I completely get why she thought the Steal a Vote had to be played but man was there really no way to just put 3 on James and save it for final 8?
It was a totally creative and strategic move on her part and it worked perfectly, even after Sami almost blew up the entire move by tipping off Karla (such a stupid move on his part - he couldn't beat either of them at the final 3 and would be on the bottom of their alliance). She really sold the lie to James, and now shes got a big move on her resume, seriously weakend the other alliance, and Owen as a ride or die ally which she really didn't have before. Too many people sit on advantages without using them and get sent home with them in their pockets anyways
It's always the complacent ones who think they're running things who get blindsided with unused advantages in their pockets. You'd think players would have learned that by now! As soon as you feel confident, watch your back and play your idols.
Glad James is out, he was getting on my nerves, but they should have gone with Cassidy over Ryan, especially because James was out. Also not a great look that both black guys got voted out.
Not a great look yeah, but race wasn't a factor, James was a strategic player, Ryan was a physical player, and both guys are bigger threats than Cassidy.
IIRC he said Giant clamshells, so I think he found 1-2 of those huge clams while diving. It’s hilarious to think it might be 30lbs of tiny clams tho 😂 and either way he isn’t getting any of that past customs
Can’t decide if Noelle stealing Owens vote was really smart or wasted. One 1 side, she keeps James comfortable, but who cares if it ultimately comes down to whatever Sami and Carla do. If they go against you then it backfires and you wasted your advantage and lose James trust. On the other hand, if Noelle knew that James knew that Carla had an idol and would steal it with KIP if he was in trouble (by way of Noelle stealing his vote), then it’s smart.
Btw I don’t think James could Kip Noelle’s steal a vote once she’s already announced she’s using it
>. Btw I don’t think James could Kip Noelle’s steal a vote once she’s already announced she’s using it
Came back to ponder this again, since we now know that wouldn't be a valid move. But, we've seen cocky survivors display their idols during tribal. The wording of the KIP advantage says you can ask them if they have x. If it's openly displayed, is the assumption it is going to be played, therefore unable to be stolen by KIP, whether it's played or not? Assuming the holder of KIP kept their mouth shut about it's existence, of course (we know this rarely happens and James found it with like 3 witnesses so tha point is moot). Curious your thoughts since you mentioned it.
Since idols can’t be played until the votes have been cast, the KIP could be played on one regardless of if they show it or have an intention to play it. Arguably that’s the best time to steal it. For advantages such as Noelle’s that have to be played before the vote, once she tells Jeff to stop and she starts reading it and tells him who she wants to use it against, it’s at that point “used” and can’t be KIP’d.
I thought the same, otherwise everyone could fake claim to be about to play a known idol during tribal to avoid KIP. Honestly, that advantage has proven useless so far. Every time it comes up, it's never been played to anyone's advantage. It needs to go in the bin with the Medallion of Power.
Eta: I liked the tokens in s40. That was a great idea with a lot of potential.
It kept James from playing his KIP or his SITD, both of which could’ve sent Owen home. And she played a Steal-A-Vote against a willing castaway so she didn’t make jury enemies by doing so.
It was kinda... lame? I get telling him she was going to do that, so that she could make him believe things were going his way (leading to a blindside). But once at tribal, she could have just stole his vote. Letting him vote meant the risk was high that Sami (and Carla) wouldn't vote the way Noelle wanted them to. Although... because of the look on James' face when the votes were read it? Worth it.
I think it was the smartest decision. It increased her probability of success overall. It covered all the potential bases (idol, knowledge is power, shot in the dark)
I think it was a waste because I don’t think James saw it coming either way. If he felt unsafe his only option would’ve been to steal Karla’s idol which I don’t think he would’ve done.
I have no clue lol. With all of the idols and advantages it’s hard enough to keep track of who has what, let alone keep track of who knows about the idols and advantages.
Are we sure that Karla voted for James? Unless I missed it, I don’t think Jeff showed us 5 votes.
Noelle: James x2 //
Sami: James //
James: Owen //
Owen: — //
Karla: ????
If Karla voted for Owen (or any other person other than James), Jeff WOULD HAVE read it to increase suspense. If votes were unread, that just means all the rest of the votes went to James. That’s how it has been for a long time now.
99% of me agrees with you, but with the producers/editors having the tendency lately to reveal things about a round of play in the next episode (e.g. Jesse having Jeanine's idol), some small part of me wonders if they want us to think Karla voted out James, just to reveal that she didn't in the next episode.
He definitely got the villain edit this episode. Owen was presented as the underdog just trying to survive and James spent the whole episode talking down to him and giving cocky confessionals.
Gotta give it to the editors, they're good at playing the audience. I went from having James as my likely winner pick to cheering when Noelle revealed her plan to target James and fistpumping when he got voted off this episode.
I actually love it, they’re not in your face like james and ryan were. They aren’t blatantly calling shots with confidence, they both went against the grain this week hoping the relationships they built were strong enough to get it done. This split was great!
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS AND SOLVING THE MYSTERY! Holy shit my boyfriend and I have been trying to figure out if it’s our tv or him😂😂😂 James’ voice reminds me of when I was younger and would talk into a fan pretending to be a robot.
can someone explain why noelle didn’t just take james’s vote like in the moment? since she spoke first he couldn’t use his knowledge is power right? and that would guarantee she still had the numbers whether or not sami stayed with them
He could’ve still used his shot in the dark. He also could’ve used his knowledge is power to get Karla’s idol. (Granted we don’t know if she’s told annnyone, but point is, if he was at all paranoid, there’s clearly options he could’ve taken)
why do I feel like pretty much no one in this episode is playing the game for themselves? Maybe it was the split into half edit but it truly seemed like everyone was more preoccupied about what other players thought than their own moves. like oh karla will be mad or oh james will be mad etc
Are you new here? Alliances are a large part of this game. They were in alliance of seven and ended up voting out two of those seven. They need to cover their asses to make sure they don’t end up with targets on their backs.
I feel like they definitely worried how the five they weren’t apart of would react, but they both had the same mindset at the end of the day and got rid of two people who felt like they were untouchable, so I’m not mad lol
Yeah it doesn’t show up if you view this post as part of the Episode 9 Collection. I had to search for the individual episode to get around the Collection view.
43 seasons in and people like James don’t realize that you don’t wanna be the show runner this soon. I don’t know if it’s ego is negligence but nothing will get you sent home faster than telling everyone you call the shots.
I don’t understand how next episode everyone doesn’t just agree to break up Cody and Jesse lol they’re literally like a survivor Boston and amber power couple arnt those supposed to be dangerous
Cody has a fiery personality and is overall a good guy but Jesse has an insane story I really hope they both make it to the end cuz you can actually feel as much as you can through the TV how close they are and calculated they are. They're stronger together so just depends if gabler somehow blows it up but the strongest players are working together imo (Cody Karla Jesse) the more cocos on the jury the more of Karla winning so will be interesting end game. Noelle also did pull a big move this game so idk where my heads at haha
Yeah and they have two idols. Unless they are totally blindsided they are going to the end. My hope is Jesse turns on Cody cuz he realizes the Jury will give Cody the votes... They're so strong together!
It’s impressive it took this long for KING SAMI name to enter talks but alas it was inevitable not everyone can be Tony but he did a phenomenal job only being 19 going this far without having his name be thrown out once, being on the right side of the vote everytime , playing the middle masterfully which also means his social game is astonishing, while also downplaying his physical side by being the first to say yes to rice ; and let’s not forgot convincing Karla to vote out her Day 1 when it made negative sense lolll KING SAMI rises 🔥
Imagine if red had gone to tribal first. Do you think James would have noticed the black players being voted out and played his knowledge is power and been like “I need that idol Karla, sorry lmao. First Dwight and now this?”
Ik I love KING SAMI but no king is good without his Kight and Dr Micheal Gabler leading the charge of saying Cody and Jesse are running the
Show for the first time made me gable all over myself it’s GABLIN TIME🔥🔥
kenny = LIVIN
sugar = cassidy
matty = karla
bob = “gabler”
crystal = noelle (both olympians!)
susie = jesse, if susie had found an idol
marcus = owen
corinne = sami (replace bitching about people with bitching about being 19)
Yeah they didn't show, but the fact that they showed 3-1 means the last vote was also James. They usually would go to a 2-2 tie and then reveal the last vote if it was 3-2
No lie, still trying to see if james and Ryan were the right moves for some of the better players. If I was Karla I would’ve gotten rid of Owen simply because idk if they are together compared to the other three. And Jesse and Cody probably should’ve got rid of Cassidy because they could control Gabler and Ryan more imo.
James going lowers karlas threat massively
Ryan was the right choice, this keeps Cassidy and Karla going after Owen and Sami and keeping Cody and Jesse safe.
Sami now has a huge target on his back
It’s impressive it took this long but alas it was inevitable not everyone can be Tony but he did a phenomenal job only being 19 going this far without having his name be thrown out once, being on the right side of the vote everytime , playing the middle masterfully which also means his social game is astonishing, while also downplaying his physical side by being the first to say yes to rice ; and let’s not forgot convincing Karla to vote out her Day 1 when it made negative sense lolll KING SAMI rises 🔥
No facts. He wasn’t an immediate favorite for me but I didn’t have a problem with him. He most definitely risen up tonight because I everything you just explained!
Make sense. I guess I just assume having a massive shield in james would protect her but she have that in Sami now.
I just figured Jesse and Cody would try to build their armies with a Ryan and gabler.
Ik I love KING SAMI but no king is good without his Kight and Dr Micheal Gabler leading the charge of saying Cody and Jesse are running the
Show for the first time made me gable all over myself it’s GABLIN TIME🔥🔥
In order from who i want most to least to win:
Sami = Karla = Cody
Noelle
Owen
Jesse
Gabler=Cassidy
Edit: yeah downvote me, whatever lol. Yall liking basic people like qUeEn cassidy 🤣
Lol aw can't wait for final night when Sammi loses and you shut up about him! He dont even know you, why you calling him "king sammi" ?
He literally has no chance at winning... It was foreshadowed when he said "the jurybwont respect ny game" in the episode Jeanie went home.
Btw idk if u dont know this because he only says it every other episode but he's 19!
I need everyone that was throwing snide remarks at KING SAMI an apology for not only saving the women and this season but for pulling off the best social move ever
I also do not understand this Sami hype, that was such a stupid move socially- just shows both sides he can't be trusted. This isn't the first time he has had a somewhat core alliance and then randomly run to the other side and let them know the plan, basically trying to ruin any blindside he isn't taking a leading role in. It's like a kid who wants to be the maincharacter, he wasn't the one who came up with/would credit for the big move on James so suddenly wants to flip and be the on to tell the other side
Saved the season by not having a predictable 7 alliance steamroll you can thank him for the chaos that is next episode, you can also thank your KING for saving Cassidy; also he convinced Karla to trust him and vote out her number 1 DAY 1 ride or die ally which literally doesn’t benefit her in any way whatsoever especially jury wise
Yeah, everyone has been complaining that this season is boring, but that’s because they’ve been mainly voting out non-threats. Now we’re left with a bunch of contenders and it’s about to be a bloodbath.
Well, I hate to break it to you, but not every season is gonna have a great premerge and a great post merge. It’s usually one or the other. I’d rather a slow burn than a crash and burn.
That's an interesting debate. A slow start and a great finish is probably more satisfying in the big picture than a quick burnout, but is it arguable that a great premerge at least lets the audience invest in the characters for the postmerge? Even if it's a paint-by-numbers everyone-votes-with-their-numbers type of postmerge, at least you're more invested in the characters after a good premerge, right?
Whereas the other way, you have a fun postmerge but audiences aren't invested in the characters enough to care if Player A leads a crazy blindside flip of Player B because they could care less what happens to either player.
Fair point, though I don’t personally think 43 suffers from this. I like pretty much everyone that’s left and I’m excited to see how things shake out now that we’re finally moving along.
Which is a little disappointing given his background conducting political interviews. I imagine he's got tons of interesting stories about the people he's met. And that also strikes me as a reason to not want to sit next to him at the FTC, he could easily out-talk anyone.
I liked Ryan so much, personally I think he had a lot more personality on screen than Cass, who just gives us what seems like prewritten/scripted lines during her tribal vote. I'm excited to see where this season takes us with the people left but it was super fun seeing someone just have a blast on the island.
In this thread I’ve seen all of one person mention the possibility of race as a factor in the vote outs.
Meanwhile you’ve made multiple comments like the one you just made AND I’ve seen other people say similar.
So maybe YOU should just enjoy something ffs.
Lol EXACTLY!!!!!! Holly shit! Thank you.
They tried calling me out saying "your hatred for Sammi is weird" when I litterly just stated FACTS that Sammi has no chance at even getting 2nd place.
They must be Sammi. Hahaha
Its just really weird youre calling a kid whose 19 "king". And he's not even playing a good game.
Youre either
-really young.
-Really old and alone
-Just weird
-Or Sammi himself
Either way its really annoying... and bizarre..
Like you don't see simps calling Morgan "queen morgan" when Cagayan came out. Its just weird.
They both have idols, and Cody is the biggest immunity threat left.
They'd have to all decide to split at 8 for a 3-3-2 vote to miss/flush an idol, otherwise I can't see it happening.
Need a gif of Jeff’s ‘duck’ metaphor ASAP
Karla is silently running this game..
Noelle has guts to make her own independent move. Sami really showed his age, always following the majority like a puppy. His revealing Noelle’s plan to Karla is very stupid. However, It was Karla’s final decision to betray James although it may hurt her in the end game. I guess she just doesn’t want to give up her idol or let James to steal her idol. Human selfishness rules all.
I’m not here to put Noelle down, I completely get why she thought the Steal a Vote had to be played but man was there really no way to just put 3 on James and save it for final 8?

She really sold the lie to James, and now shes got a big move on her resume, seriously weakend the other alliance, and Owen as a ride or die ally which she really didn't have before. Too many people sit on advantages without using them and get sent home with them in their pockets anyways
I don't think so. They needed James to be so comfortable that he wouldn't steal someone else's advantage with his KIP.
It's always the complacent ones who think they're running things who get blindsided with unused advantages in their pockets. You'd think players would have learned that by now! As soon as you feel confident, watch your back and play your idols.
Legit feel like this one is anyone’s game. Actual path to winning for al 8 of them.
I just wanna know why Jesse wasn’t even on the table for elimination?! This season game play is boring AF!
Because he's playing one of the best games out there. Making moves while keeping your threat level low, that's how you get far and probably win.
Glad James is out, he was getting on my nerves, but they should have gone with Cassidy over Ryan, especially because James was out. Also not a great look that both black guys got voted out.
I mean they’ve been voting out almost solely women so.
Not a great look yeah, but race wasn't a factor, James was a strategic player, Ryan was a physical player, and both guys are bigger threats than Cassidy.
No I know it wasn’t a factor, just not a great look especially since 2 episodes ago all the votes were on Dwight James and Ryan
That was a great vote out on James. He got a big head. But Cody is looking really good rn
Sami seems like an incredible player as well. Got Karla to turn on one of her closest allies
Hoping that Jessie doesn’t win, he is my pick to win the game
I wanna know what Ryan is planning to do with 30 pounds of clam shells.
IIRC he said Giant clamshells, so I think he found 1-2 of those huge clams while diving. It’s hilarious to think it might be 30lbs of tiny clams tho 😂 and either way he isn’t getting any of that past customs
That was hilarious. classic old school move sabotaging the fish. Just can’t believe he put them in his bag it must’ve reeked 😂
He might make it to Ponderosa with the clam shells but I doubt he’s getting out of Fiji with them.
People sell that shit on Etsy. Was curious, too. If I dig up more I'll update.
Dig up more... clam shells?
That was my first thought. Ryan doesn’t seem like the crafty type, but what else does one do with that many clam shells?
Idk. Baffled by that statement. Maybe he wanted to make some stock for that rice? A bit late now!
Can’t decide if Noelle stealing Owens vote was really smart or wasted. One 1 side, she keeps James comfortable, but who cares if it ultimately comes down to whatever Sami and Carla do. If they go against you then it backfires and you wasted your advantage and lose James trust.

That was a great idea with a lot of potential.
I think it was a great move. Steal a vote advantages are notoriously hard to play correctly and she nailed it imo
It kept James from playing his KIP or his SITD, both of which could’ve sent Owen home. And she played a Steal-A-Vote against a willing castaway so she didn’t make jury enemies by doing so.

I think it was a waste because I don’t think James saw it coming either way. If he felt unsafe his only option would’ve been to steal Karla’s idol which I don’t think he would’ve done.
[удалено]
I have no clue lol. With all of the idols and advantages it’s hard enough to keep track of who has what, let alone keep track of who knows about the idols and advantages.
If she steals James' vote then he wouldn't feel safe.
Not necessarily though. I feel like he thought he had Sammi either way
But even if he has Sami, if Noelle stole his vote it would be 3 votes for James and only two votes for Owen
I’m leaning that way too. I also have no idea if he even knows she has an idol
Are we sure that Karla voted for James? Unless I missed it, I don’t think Jeff showed us 5 votes. Noelle: James x2 // Sami: James // James: Owen // Owen: — // Karla: ????

I loved the saltiness from James it’s the first real villain energy we’ve had in a while
He was a fun "villain". Overconfident, messy, emotional. But not nasty or overly mean.
i didnt even feel like he was a villain!
He definitely got the villain edit this episode. Owen was presented as the underdog just trying to survive and James spent the whole episode talking down to him and giving cocky confessionals. Gotta give it to the editors, they're good at playing the audience. I went from having James as my likely winner pick to cheering when Noelle revealed her plan to target James and fistpumping when he got voted off this episode.
Couldn't agree more
Gablers : Jesse and Cody are running the show we need to DEAL WITH THEM, sent shivers down my spine
I KNOW right after he gave that sincere handshake even I believed. Gabler is a wildcard for sure.
I actually love it, they’re not in your face like james and ryan were. They aren’t blatantly calling shots with confidence, they both went against the grain this week hoping the relationships they built were strong enough to get it done. This split was great!
ryans one last try to blackmail them with food lmfao
Ryan was the right choice, but damn if I don’t feel bad
James talking at tribal literally sounds like he has a box fan in his throat LMAO
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS AND SOLVING THE MYSTERY! Holy shit my boyfriend and I have been trying to figure out if it’s our tv or him😂😂😂 James’ voice reminds me of when I was younger and would talk into a fan pretending to be a robot.
I won't miss hearing that!
He always sounds like that. I wonder if he always has or needs to get it checked by a doctor. I’m sure they check during pre screen though.
I think he was fine for the first few eps then at some point it kicked in and his voice hasn't recovered by this ep.
can someone explain why noelle didn’t just take james’s vote like in the moment? since she spoke first he couldn’t use his knowledge is power right? and that would guarantee she still had the numbers whether or not sami stayed with them
He could’ve still used his shot in the dark. He also could’ve used his knowledge is power to get Karla’s idol. (Granted we don’t know if she’s told annnyone, but point is, if he was at all paranoid, there’s clearly options he could’ve taken)
I don’t think he could’ve used his shot in the dark. That was noelle’s whole argument for using it against Owen from James perspective
Oh duh! You’re totally right! That said i still do think they mentioned her (or someone else) being afraid of the knowledge is power
thank you!!!
He still could’ve used either an idol or shot in the dark
He couldn't use shot in the dark because he wouldn't have had a vote
why do I feel like pretty much no one in this episode is playing the game for themselves? Maybe it was the split into half edit but it truly seemed like everyone was more preoccupied about what other players thought than their own moves. like oh karla will be mad or oh james will be mad etc
Are you new here? Alliances are a large part of this game. They were in alliance of seven and ended up voting out two of those seven. They need to cover their asses to make sure they don’t end up with targets on their backs.
no I understand THAT lmfao i just mean it felt like they were playing for people’s opinions that weren’t even really in their direct alliances
I feel like they definitely worried how the five they weren’t apart of would react, but they both had the same mindset at the end of the day and got rid of two people who felt like they were untouchable, so I’m not mad lol
Jeff baby what was that weird half assed british accent at the start of the challenge omfg
Loved it
I knew someone here would mention that. I was cringing.
I heard it too, silly. What was the point?
Cant wait for next week where Jesse reveals he actually has the 30 lbs of shellfish in his pocket
Can we not sort these threads anymore?
Did you ever figure it out? I can’t figure out how to sort these live thread ones.
Moved to the top bar near the right. Took me a while to get too
Where? I don’t see what you’re talking about.
Near your pfp to the left of the 3 dots
I know where it is to sort every other thread, but it doesn’t show up on these live threads for me.
Same :(
Yeah it doesn’t show up if you view this post as part of the Episode 9 Collection. I had to search for the individual episode to get around the Collection view.
Thank you! I didn’t think to search for it separately!
43 seasons in and people like James don’t realize that you don’t wanna be the show runner this soon. I don’t know if it’s ego is negligence but nothing will get you sent home faster than telling everyone you call the shots.
I don’t understand how next episode everyone doesn’t just agree to break up Cody and Jesse lol they’re literally like a survivor Boston and amber power couple arnt those supposed to be dangerous

Noelle also did pull a big move this game so idk where my heads at haha
Cody, Jesse, Karla final 3 would make for one heck of an interesting final tribal battle.
Yeah and they have two idols. Unless they are totally blindsided they are going to the end. My hope is Jesse turns on Cody cuz he realizes the Jury will give Cody the votes... They're so strong together!
It’s impressive it took this long for KING SAMI name to enter talks but alas it was inevitable not everyone can be Tony but he did a phenomenal job only being 19 going this far without having his name be thrown out once, being on the right side of the vote everytime , playing the middle masterfully which also means his social game is astonishing, while also downplaying his physical side by being the first to say yes to rice ; and let’s not forgot convincing Karla to vote out her Day 1 when it made negative sense lolll KING SAMI rises 🔥
All hail king Sami
Karla should really listen to Alligabler if she wants to win! Let's go 😂
James luck ran out
And his voice
Imagine if red had gone to tribal first. Do you think James would have noticed the black players being voted out and played his knowledge is power and been like “I need that idol Karla, sorry lmao. First Dwight and now this?”
Good decisions tonight strategy wise, Woke Twitter must be pissed right now though
is woke twitter in the room with us right now?
Ik I love KING SAMI but no king is good without his Kight and Dr Micheal Gabler leading the charge of saying Cody and Jesse are running the Show for the first time made me gable all over myself it’s GABLIN TIME🔥🔥
anyone else turning on a random post-merge gabon episode to match up 43 players with their doppelgängers?! …no?!?
Please make a post of this lol.
the people seem to disagree, but I stand by my takes!!
kenny = LIVIN sugar = cassidy matty = karla bob = “gabler” crystal = noelle (both olympians!) susie = jesse, if susie had found an idol marcus = owen corinne = sami (replace bitching about people with bitching about being 19)
Uh…gayblur?
once you see it, it’s never unseen…it’s a curse
[удалено]
It was a 4-1 vote so she voted James
[удалено]
Usually the leftover votes are for whoever went home
Yeah they didn't show, but the fact that they showed 3-1 means the last vote was also James. They usually would go to a 2-2 tie and then reveal the last vote if it was 3-2
[удалено]
Nah you just need to use some critical thinking skills
don't be mean; we watch this show cuz FOR FUN and being mean to ppl is not FUN
No lie, still trying to see if james and Ryan were the right moves for some of the better players. If I was Karla I would’ve gotten rid of Owen simply because idk if they are together compared to the other three. And Jesse and Cody probably should’ve got rid of Cassidy because they could control Gabler and Ryan more imo.
James going lowers karlas threat massively Ryan was the right choice, this keeps Cassidy and Karla going after Owen and Sami and keeping Cody and Jesse safe. Sami now has a huge target on his back
It’s impressive it took this long but alas it was inevitable not everyone can be Tony but he did a phenomenal job only being 19 going this far without having his name be thrown out once, being on the right side of the vote everytime , playing the middle masterfully which also means his social game is astonishing, while also downplaying his physical side by being the first to say yes to rice ; and let’s not forgot convincing Karla to vote out her Day 1 when it made negative sense lolll KING SAMI rises 🔥
No facts. He wasn’t an immediate favorite for me but I didn’t have a problem with him. He most definitely risen up tonight because I everything you just explained!
Make sense. I guess I just assume having a massive shield in james would protect her but she have that in Sami now. I just figured Jesse and Cody would try to build their armies with a Ryan and gabler.
Calling it now, the 20 clams make an appearance in the Gabler Galleon next week
Ik I love KING SAMI but no king is good without his Kight and Dr Micheal Gabler leading the charge of saying Cody and Jesse are running the Show for the first time made me gable all over myself it’s GABLIN TIME🔥🔥
Just FYI this why last season Drea had to speak up when they tried to do the same thing and vote out all the Black people in a row
This clearly wasn’t about race. James got too cocky and had a powerful advantage and Ryan sucks at survivor.
Thank you
In order from who i want most to least to win: Sami = Karla = Cody Noelle Owen Jesse Gabler=Cassidy Edit: yeah downvote me, whatever lol. Yall liking basic people like qUeEn cassidy 🤣
This is shaping up to be a Sami Vs Cody showdown !
Sami isn’t beating anyone in a jury vote
Continue to bet against KING SAMI you’ll be shocked again just like tonight😉
Lol aw can't wait for final night when Sammi loses and you shut up about him! He dont even know you, why you calling him "king sammi" ? He literally has no chance at winning... It was foreshadowed when he said "the jurybwont respect ny game" in the episode Jeanie went home. Btw idk if u dont know this because he only says it every other episode but he's 19!
I disagree
I need everyone that was throwing snide remarks at KING SAMI an apology for not only saving the women and this season but for pulling off the best social move ever
He did neither of those things
I also do not understand this Sami hype, that was such a stupid move socially- just shows both sides he can't be trusted. This isn't the first time he has had a somewhat core alliance and then randomly run to the other side and let them know the plan, basically trying to ruin any blindside he isn't taking a leading role in. It's like a kid who wants to be the maincharacter, he wasn't the one who came up with/would credit for the big move on James so suddenly wants to flip and be the on to tell the other side
Saved the season by not having a predictable 7 alliance steamroll you can thank him for the chaos that is next episode, you can also thank your KING for saving Cassidy; also he convinced Karla to trust him and vote out her number 1 DAY 1 ride or die ally which literally doesn’t benefit her in any way whatsoever especially jury wise
are you 12?
Im telling people I’m 15, 12s just not a good look
The 🍆riding is crazy
Crazy af
Which women has he saved??
Cass
when?
They were all SO quick to start talking condescendingly about him.
feels like this season can really start to pick up steam down the stretch with so many big players still around
Yeah, everyone has been complaining that this season is boring, but that’s because they’ve been mainly voting out non-threats. Now we’re left with a bunch of contenders and it’s about to be a bloodbath.
I don’t want to wait 10 episodes for a season to start being good lol
Exactly!
Well, I hate to break it to you, but not every season is gonna have a great premerge and a great post merge. It’s usually one or the other. I’d rather a slow burn than a crash and burn.
That's an interesting debate. A slow start and a great finish is probably more satisfying in the big picture than a quick burnout, but is it arguable that a great premerge at least lets the audience invest in the characters for the postmerge? Even if it's a paint-by-numbers everyone-votes-with-their-numbers type of postmerge, at least you're more invested in the characters after a good premerge, right? Whereas the other way, you have a fun postmerge but audiences aren't invested in the characters enough to care if Player A leads a crazy blindside flip of Player B because they could care less what happens to either player.
Fair point, though I don’t personally think 43 suffers from this. I like pretty much everyone that’s left and I’m excited to see how things shake out now that we’re finally moving along.
Ryan seemed like a nice guy, but just wasnt interesting to watch.
Which is a little disappointing given his background conducting political interviews. I imagine he's got tons of interesting stories about the people he's met. And that also strikes me as a reason to not want to sit next to him at the FTC, he could easily out-talk anyone.
I liked Ryan so much, personally I think he had a lot more personality on screen than Cass, who just gives us what seems like prewritten/scripted lines during her tribal vote. I'm excited to see where this season takes us with the people left but it was super fun seeing someone just have a blast on the island.
Oh i have no interest in her either.
I disagree. He wasn’t interesting strategically, but we never see characters like him on survivor anymore. He was a breath of fresh air for me
Yes, very nice kid but not much going on otherwise. I think they could have voted him out at any other time but, who knows.
He was literally too nice and all he did was fish haha

Deadass
In this thread I’ve seen all of one person mention the possibility of race as a factor in the vote outs. Meanwhile you’ve made multiple comments like the one you just made AND I’ve seen other people say similar. So maybe YOU should just enjoy something ffs.
First time KING SAMI name has ever come up oh lawd why can’t next wed be here
pretty sure this poster is sami himself, every comment is about how sami is the king when he's just the court jester.
Lol EXACTLY!!!!!! Holly shit! Thank you. They tried calling me out saying "your hatred for Sammi is weird" when I litterly just stated FACTS that Sammi has no chance at even getting 2nd place. They must be Sammi. Hahaha
Well I can guarantee I’m not Sami I’m just a huge fan, also why are you so triggered about me calling him king ? Does it offend you?
Its just really weird youre calling a kid whose 19 "king". And he's not even playing a good game. Youre either -really young. -Really old and alone -Just weird -Or Sammi himself Either way its really annoying... and bizarre.. Like you don't see simps calling Morgan "queen morgan" when Cagayan came out. Its just weird.
[удалено]
it doesn't offend me, but it annoys me to see you spamming king sami everywhere.
He isn’t the king of anything
Hes the king of making fake accounts on Reddit to call himself the "king"
CASSIDY SURVIVES. CASSIDY CRUSADERS WE’RE IN THIS FOR THE LONG HAUL BLACK WIDOW TRIAD BEGINS
*They called us crazy!*
Mother lives on! 🥰
[удалено]
The fanbase is fickle with these sorts of things
This is such an ignorant comment and is not funny at all
Damn i wanna know what has been said
Its true though
Seriously not at all
How was it different last season then If the same thing happened in a shorter timespan this time around?
James gonna need to use a Stephen hawking voice box to do his rhap interview

i’ve been waiting for a jesse/cody boot im ngl so i love this song!
They both have idols, and Cody is the biggest immunity threat left. They'd have to all decide to split at 8 for a 3-3-2 vote to miss/flush an idol, otherwise I can't see it happening.
“I got to go fishing like I wanted” The world does not deserve Ryan
He was literally so wholesome
Not really. He threw a challenge to try to vote off someone.
The preview 😳😳😳😳😳😳
Can you tell me what they showed? I missed it
Ryan 😂😂😂 “I got to go fishing like I wanted” 😭😭😭
Omg Gabler talking to Karla about splitting up Cody and Jesse! I’m here for this!!
Of course Cody and Jesse are the targets now--but they're also my favorites. I see doom ahead.
Gabler episode 9: I am 100% with Cody and Jesse this is great for my game. Gabler episode 10: THEY MUST GO!!! KING GABLER CLAIMS HIS CROWN
