The week ends and we're only down to 18, but it's been a really interesting start. I'd rather drag out the time now than end game as it will give more time for people to set up their games. Hence this schedule. People can utilise it and benefit down the track. Rather than just have elimination after elimination to start, this should give nobody an excuse for not putting in.
Do Nostromo return to TC on Monday? Sarah likely the target. Should be a fascinating challenge to see how it all plays out. I had a look at the schedule and it's possible that Nostromo enters the merge with just 4 players if they lose every challenge. They are guaranteed to lose at least one more with the double boot this time next week. The scarier thing for them is entering the merge with 4 and then there's the Tribal of Fear and they could potentially lose 2 right there.
Realistically, they shouldn't face that. Sulaco may possibly look to throw at some point. But if they're holding out for a swap, maybe not.

Something about Cherry made me dislike her at the beginning, but I'm a huge fan now. Her latest update is  Sulaco has been so interesting to watch because it could have gone so many different ways, and I honestly had no idea what would happen. They're all taking their time to get to know one another, and see who they really want to align with. Trinity as the first boot should happen, and then maybe Mother Russia. After that, there are just so many alliances and people who dislike each other, it's not really clear who'll win out. Noxy is liked by everyone, but she's starting to get caught out with all the stories she's been spreading. Not sure if it's going to come back to bite her or not, but it's been noticed. Like she was saying it's going to be Selene vs Claire but neither of them actually wanted that, and Claire actually approached Selene to say it's not true. Although we now have Cherry saying she wants to make a move against Selene, so Selene vs Cherry is probable. Cherry will have Babydoll, Claire, and Xena, while Selene has Kaylee and Storm. Noxy could go either way, I can't tell for sure. Nostromo on the other hand with their obvious six is a little dull. I mean not that there's anything wrong with them, that group of six is amazing, but it's obvious they're sticking together so yeah...just not exciting. If Sulaco gets to the merge with too many people they'll implode, I think? Nostromo entering with lower numbers is ideal because they would probably just Pagong the other tribe if they had majority. And considering how they've done at challenges so far, it's really unlikely they'll win all the rest. |

Who should I be rooting for?

I think Cherry over on Sulaco is your type.
Alliances are the main 6 on Nostromo: Alice, Cameron, Jessica, Rita, T-X, Xenia. Xenia and Cameron probably the outliers, maybe Rita. Call/Sarah on the hitlist.
Over at Sulaco: Cherry, Claire and Babydoll are tight. Selene/Kaylee are together. Xena is kinda with Cherry. Storm is in everything. So is Noxeema. But people are seeing that. Mother Russia and Trinity pretty much left out of everything, with Trinity lined up as first boot for a while.

Most people seem to want Russia as the first boot now? Trinity is growing on them.
Who's winning the challenge right now? I feel like Sulaco is doing quite poorly, but it's hard to tell without actually tallying.

Not sure. I haven't done any tallying either. I suppose I should get onto that.

Sulaco have won the Actors round 28 to 27. Seems like Salma Hayek proved troublesome for most. Noxeema snagged all 10 to eek out the win. Nostromo currently lead 15-11 in the Survivors portion, both having had 2 people compete. Cameron scored all 10. Babydoll did as well, but triggered the clue penalty. Claire Bear was deplorable with just 3. The singers round has only had Alice compete for Nostromo so far. She got 8. Sulaco had Trinity and Xena score 15 between them (Xena scored 10 but took the clue). Still to compete are Call, T-X, Xenia for Nostromo, and then two out of Cherry Berri, Selene and Storm for Sulaco. I'd say Nostromo should win Survivors (but how does Rita of all people only score 5?). It likely comes down to Singers. |

And having said that, Rita has now got 2 more to have a current score of 7. Not sure if she'll get beyond that but given Sulaco's score, it's a big leg up and Nostromo should win that leg. |

Yeah Claire's score will probably ensure Sulaco's loss on that one. She should have used the clue more because it can give good hints for the names. I have no idea how the rest will do. I found singers really difficult so 15 seems decent to me for two, but still could be beaten by people who know what they're doing.

T-X's time on the singers leg may sink Nostromo here.

If time is an issue Trinity just added new answers 19 hours later but none of them were correct. So they'll definitely lose on time. But points wise they're ahead anyway?

Also Trinity has just added Storm to the list of people who have already competed their challenge, even though she hasn't done it. Hope that doesn't cause a mess. But she should do it soon. And they've basically lost the Survivor bit already anyway. Singers is what matters.

So whoever is doing singers for Nostromo needs to get 10 with no clue for them to win?

Looks like. I think it's Xenia. Epic win? |
