Finally getting around to writing out my thoughts.

One thing I loved was that there was a lot of craziness at Tribal all without anyone leaving their seats. That feels old school. That feels like how it should be. Another thing I love is that Jeff is trolling like crazy. Him calling that Venus/Liz/Quitavius were gonna finish last in front of everyone and daring them to prove him wrong and then bringing the seat cushion and popcorn to Tribal were the kinds of things we haven't seen from Jeff in quite some time. This feels like the "They will be taken and executed" Jeff from Nicaragua. And it's great.

This cast really doesn't love each other and the season is way better for it.

Contestants ranking right now:
  1. Venus - Why do some of you not like her? I get that she's cocky and has absolutely zero self-awareness, but that's what makes her unintentionally hilarious. Her thinking the Tevin move was hers at all, when it was Liz doing the legwork, is just good TV. She's just great to watch. That and, yes, she's hot, so there's that. But this season wouldn't be even half the same without her.
  2. Quitavius - Honestly, the only reason he's not #1 is because he threatened to quit multiple times, and I can't in good faith put someone like that in my top spot. His chaotic energy is something else, and it's just destructive to the game. It's a big part of why this group is fed up with each other. He's added a lot to the season.
  3. Ben - "This does not rock, Jeff" is a fun catchphrase, and his breakdown at camp that one night was one of the most relatable things I've seen on this show in a long time. He's fun, likable, and easy to identify with... but is lacking in the airtime.
  4. Tiff - Her responses to Quitavius got me to like her a LOT MORE. Which is something, since she had been very much in the back seat for a while.
  5. Liz - A trainwreck, but one we haven't seen enough of. This episode, we got her "Quitavius overshadowed my move with his insanity!" (great stuff) and... then she disappeared until Tribal. Par for the course with her. It may be because she's famished since she can't really eat. At least the preview gives us her dishing the dirt I wanna see.
  6. Kenzie - She took the biggest hit this week with her wanting to blindside Tiff for the sake of a blindside. That always hurts. And she wasn't exactly likable to begin with, given how she treated Jess and Bhanu. That said, her mockery of Quitavius was fantastic. And she foreshadowed Jeff's popcorn at Tribal.
  7. Charlie - His obsession with T-Swift has given us several fun moments, and I'm sure she'll eventually write a song about breaking up with him. His song-off with Ben, him shaking off the "Shake It Off" joke... stuff like that is good. I also am very impressed with things like wanting to let Kenzie make the Tiff move so he could put the heat on Kenzie instead of taking it himself.
  8. Hunter - Got nothing for ya. Head back to camp. At least I remember his "Hunter and Hunted" line from the challenge.
  9. Maria - She's well more of a total nothing than she has any right to be. All I know about her is that she's a mother and is from Lebanon but that's it. Her game is essentially being in Charlie's shadow.
This cast is great. Lots of emotional players. There's also the dichotomy of the three starting tribes: The hot mess that was Yanu vs. the "Vibe Tribe" Siga vs. the winning locker room of Nami constantly devolving into arguments. This is the best cast Jesse Tannenbaum has assembled, unseating 42's.

(Winner contenders are Charlie, rising stock Tiff, dwindling-stock Kenzie, and upset pick Venus.)

Thanks for the info, Mafia is something I've never quite got. Should be able to build a few features that help out with that right into the site.
Awesome! The gang will appreciate that.

The way it works is that you have to vote a user, so the full text for me was - always bolded - "##vote: BCT" so it would have to count every vote for me on a separate line from any other player; however, if someone voted "BlueCrystalTear" then that would have ended up on a separate line. If unvoted, the person's current vote would be removed from the counter, and their vote would have parenthesis around it to denote that they HAD voted me, but unvoted later. This is so people can keep track of actions and whatnot, as it's an information game. Let me know if all this makes sense to you!

I will let Chris say more of course, since who's the one who's REALLY been wanting that feature here the most? Chris.

I know Mafia is popular, are there any built in forum features that would help out with those games?
As a former Mafia player, it would be really, REALLY sweet to have a bot that counts votals, so if we posted ##votals, we'd get the bot to post votals. Grim (GMUN) said this kind of thing was possible when I asked her, but sadly I never got around to figuring out how to run something like that and later stopped playing Mafia. The ## tag denotes actions, including votes and unvotes, so if the bot could search for "##vote:" and "##unvote" when it's on its own line, that would be the best starting point. We would have to require that votes/unvotes were on their own line and everyone would need to state somebody's full username, but that's about it.

Also, I believe all I've saved from 2006-07 is Word docs of copypasta and one epically accidental POTD + results page that has Mtn Dew product placement on it. Which I don't believe will help you.

This may be what gets me to stop playing.

If you're gonna allow for customization, at least make it possible for someone's avatar to not look hideous. Literally every option I tried looks horrendous, so I just went back to wearing the Cofagrigus suit.

Now, don't get me wrong, I am happy that they added more options including more hairstyles, let guys and girls use each other's things, and added a weight slider, but the execution looks so amateurish that it's an assault on my eyes.

Also I hope that nobody in my raiding party says I gotta make the avatar actually look like me now, because I ain't doing that. I can see my ugly self in the mirror any time I want, the last thing I want is to see me in a game.

That was a beautiful mess. Like... it was a Live Tribal that even the cast hated, and getting to see every single one of them react in the voting booth was glorious. Just amazing.

Quit (I presume that's what the "Q" really stands for) was being ridiculous at Tribal again and I wouldn't be shocked if Tiff and Kenzie turn on him because he outed Tiff's idol to everyone. I highly doubt he wins. If we have an unconventional "winner edit" it's gonna be Venus.

Was fun to see how ridiculous Quit was being with that Hide N Seek game, using how people play that game to judge how they're playing Survivor. Meanwhile Venus was more grounded and used it to analyze their characters and thus their style of gameplay. She has some very apt ideas, even if she's oblivious over half the time.

I mean when you put it that way it sounds stupid. I dunno, I guess I grew up in a bubble where nobody cared about The Price Is Right. I've never known anybody who unironically cared about it beyond acknowledging that it's been around forever and its hosts are respected.

Thinking about it, I also associate Millionaire with the more modern style of game show like Deal or No Deal, where it's got a lot of lingering tension. It might have only been in the zeitgeist for a few years but I feel like it was the template for the genre's 21st century incarnation.
Millionaire did deliver with the tension, that's for sure. It definitely helped revive interest in the genre in 1999 - though ABC doing easier questions for the US edition to drive up ratings in that first year (as opposed to being tougher like the British edition) certainly helped.

So I can see your point of view. Thanks for taking the time to explain that. But you can count me as someone who unironically cares about it, and really always has :)

not in the US, but it has an absurd number of foreign versions, many of which are still running (though a lot of them also ended, and many of them have been restarted at least once)
See, I don't hear as much about international Millionaire as I have about international Feud. I've seen clips from the Australian and Canadian versions of Feud, whereas I can't recall the last time I've stumbled across something from any Millionaire.

I primarily watch Price and Jeopardy, but still get notifications about Feud and Wheel. I don't know about any international editions of Wheel but know there are several of Price that have come and gone over the years. Jeopardy had a brief UK pilot series earlier this year but that's about the extent of what I know there (there's no Canadian edition because Canadians compete on the US show; this is also true for Price). No clue if that was picked up longer-term.

My mind was mainly going for the US/Canada shows anyway. If I were British, I'd probably have had a very different list.

It's actually really, really good at first. But boy, does that last hour DRAAAAAG. When I EVENTUALLY took the bastard down, I was like "Fucking finally!" and not excited at all. It would have been way better if there had been fewer convenient excuses for why we can't just arrest him. Especially given how it's so obvious that he's the Big Bad once he changes form. Same is true for 2-4, of course, but that one has actual STAKES after that. This one is just "Can I bring this asshole down already? Please? Pretty please with bacon on top? COME ON, PLEEEEEASSSEEEEEEE?" Not fun.

But I am with what others have already said: That length isn't a problem if it doesn't feel like it's dragging.

I gotta say, re-reading the trial information has been absolutely hilarious, seeing all the ludicrous theories the defense put up to explain how OJ could have been innocent:

"The police mishandled the DNA evidence causing all of the real killers' DNA to be 100% lost!"
Really? Improperly handling DNA causes a portion of it to just vanish instead of it all being contimated or have it mixed in with the other people's?

"The police stole a bottle of OJ's blood and poured it all over the crime scene!"
I'm just visually imagining this and cracking up.

"Mark Furhman picked up the matching glove with a stick, put it in a ziplock bag, hid it inside of his sock, and then traveled to OJ's house to leave it there in order to frame him!"
what???
tbh this sounds incredible.

I've watched a lot of Reality TV in my lifetime but sadly the OJ Trial isn't a show I've found a way to watch. And it was the first one!

8/10

The only case in this game I legitimately like. More intrigue, more buddy-cop antics, Kay as a little kid, the Judge as a witness, and a thrilling climax that feels more like the showdowns we've come to know and love.

That said, I only played it twice and enjoyed it both times.

...that said, tomorrow I think I will leave the ranting to other people.

I once saw a longer streak years ago.
I am pretty sure the "Do you know what OOT stands for?" poll had something far more insane until KCF broke it with the first joke vote.

As for this one, yeah, I'm pretty sure OJ did it. Who else could it have been? I have never seen a plausible alternative explanation.

He did that shit, but the cops also tried to cheat with false evidence and it backfired on them
This is probably why.

E1-1: 5/10
E1-2: 5/10
E1-3: 5.5/10

I only remember the ending tbqh. E1-4 is the best case of the game. E1-5 could've taken it had it, you know, ended an hour sooner than it did.

I've only played E2-1 of the second game unfortunately. I think part of it was that AAI1 was just okay. The other part was that it feels weird playing on a computer.

Just voting Wailmer because of the shiny one I caught in GO that's one notch short of perfect. Everything else except Swoobat is... pretty equal tbh.

SHADOW BONE
+3 Bisharp
+2 Leafeon
+1 Pumpkaboo
-1 Weedle

Did Duraludon really need an evolution? (Stantler certainly did.)

Second Tribal was so boring compared to the first even though it was all bullshit. This group is actually not bad at acting and lying to Jeff.

I think it's Soda, surprisingly.

(all that above is despite Q and Tiff voting Tim out, which is fine because Tim clearly wanted "SIGA STRONG!" - which is why you dwindle them down to two and recruit them)
