    About Chet’s vote off I’ve always said they can force him to vote Ozzy out. Ami, Erik and Tracy votez Ozzy, Cirie and Amanda vote Chet. And Chet can vote for anyone because he can’t vote for himself. If he doesn’t vote ozzy on the first vote on the revote it won’t matter because he can’t vote and ozzy would be voted out 3/2

    One thing I hear suggested about Malcolm's Caramoan move is that they should've split their votes among three different people. The idea is if Malcolm WAS going to say anything about their votes, saying they're splitting, not changing, and refusing to give names, would've not only forced the majority to think on their position, but potentially led people to not vote for Malcolm/Eddie.

      This is what I though when I first saw the move, forces the majority to turn on each other, because they can stab each other in the back first and protect themselves, or stay strong, flush the idols and still have to turn on each other.

    One more problem with the Three Amigos blindside was that they decided to vote Phillip out because he was annoying. They completely ignored Andrea and Brenda who were great at challenges, and Cochran who was running the whole game.
    One thing to remember is to keep the annoying player as long as possible. They don’t win - Sherri (Caramoan), Angelina (David vs. Goliath), and soon Q (46).

By taking out Michaela too soon, Jay loses Hannah as a number, since she wasn't going to work with him after he'd just left her completely in the dark, and in saving Bret, he just gave all the numbers to the Gen X + Hannah/Adam side, because Bret wasn't going to side with Jay and Will over his number one ally in Chris

    Heidi in Season 44. When the merge tribe was split and she had the power to control a vote. If she had either forced Lauren to vote for Jamie or vice versa, YamYam and Matt could have taken that as a signal to vote for one of the two, making the votes 2/3, saving both YamYam and Matt and taking out a majority alliance player (while the third alliance member won immunity). zit feels like the producers had that move in mind when designing the episode, but instead Heidi threw a vote on YamYam.

      I loved the move, l especially with the idol to get through final 5. The problem was that it made him so blatantly the biggest threat on the board at final 4 that he had to win one of two challenges, and he had done nothing all season to instill confidence in his challenge prowess. I think the video lays it out well- if he had taken out Cassidy or Gabler at final 5, considering they’re the ones who beat him in the final challenge and firemaking, he would have had a better shot. Higher risk of letting Karla reach the end, but higher chance of winning himself.

    Jesse keeping both idols at five to single-handedly decide who goes home still makes him the biggest threat at 4 that needs to win immunity or fire. He might have a better chance with Karla at 4, but this is still a big risk that could easily backfire. I think all of Jesse’s options were a risk and any path he took would make his decision look like the correct move if he had won or a misplay if he had lost.

      Another good point. People forget that Gabler flat out said in his post season interview that he would have taken Jesse had he won immunity. Jesse still had a path to the FTC without winning immunity. It’s just that Cassidy won immunity and Karla prioritized taking Jesse out at 5 as opposed to bettering her odds for success.

What he needed to do was follow up the Cody move by sniping one of Owen or Cassidy at 5, and that gets him a better chance of making final 3, because either he wins his way there, or whichever one of Owen and Cassidy sticks around at 4 wins it, in which case he goes into fire, and in both scenarios, I'd say having an injured Karla around greatly improves his shot at making endgame, because he can definitely beat her in an immunity, and with a broken hand, not like she'd be particularly skilled at making fires

    I disagree with the Malcolm assessment.
    If he didn't say Phillip, the alliance would be just voting out Sherri at that point instead as she wasn't part of the original alliance, and the only potential person of the seven who might have flipped to the three amigos if some other twist of fate saved them. If this was done prior to Tribal, and it forced the entire tribe to scramble and become paranoid, then it might have caused more chaos. But at tribal, it's always the easy vote.
    i think at that point in the game, Malcolm just wanted to show Phillip that he wasn't Boston Rob and he was never in control of the game like Phillip thought he was. Malcolm knew his days were numbered because of his threat level and just wanted to outlast the joke character.

    I would actually push back against Malcolm’s move being an incredible move. Like you said, Malcolm neutralized his own power during the move that predictably kept the status quo the same and got him booted next. To me an incredible move that backfires is something that maximizes the odds for victory, yet still ultimately fails because in the long run the worst case scenario still happened. If someone increases their odds from a 4-1 chance of losing to a 5-1 chance of winning, but the one still happens that makes them lose then I don’t consider that a bad move. It’s just that the lower odds prevailed. Malcolm undercut his own maximization during the move, thus it ended up not being incredible. It was a flash in the pan. Exciting to see for a split second, but nothing to show for it after it’s done.

  • @potterbonzzort

    Taking out Cody was not a good move, even with retroactive mental gymnastics. Jesse wasn't looked at as a strategic force and voting out Cody was an act of desperation that left him vulnerable as was well illustrated in this video. Jesse needed to play a better game, and instead actively chose not to. How did he fail to account for all of the other variables, including playing the idol when he didn't need to? I would argue that even if there was a viable path to the end for Jesse that voting out Cody was unnecessary had he only played smarter. Cody would likely not have won the final challenge and it would have came down to Jesse and Cass in the end regardless. Gabler beats Cody in fire 10 out of 10 times. The only thing Jesse did in the eyes of the jury was vote out Cody. And the thing that everyone seems to gloss over entirely is that everyone else would have wanted to take shots at Cody moving forward too. You can map out many paths to the end for Jesse leaving Cody in as a shield in front of him while simultaneously having 2 idols and several allies. You can map out one path to the end with one variable to it by taking out Cody here. This is an illogical argument. Jesse didn't play well in the end game.

    An interesting thing I think the 3 amigos could have done in their situation is not reveal that they had 2 idols. The majority still splits votes that will ultimately be nullified and Malcolm, Reynold, and Eddie split votes amongst 3 players in the majority (maybe Andrea, Brenda, and Cochran). Therefore on the re-vote, the majority has no choice but to vote for one of those 3. Not saying this is the only way to do this but it still causes a mad scramble and potential fractures afterwards with no easy way out.

    Oh boy. Too many people give Jesse praise for his move against Cody. IMO, it was amazing for the audience, but it was his worst move of the game. Cody was the ONLY person who would have even thought of taking him to final 3. And given his lack of challenge ability to that point, relying on winning the final challenge or building fire was absolutely unlikely. So he sabotaged one of his 3 paths to the end by voting out his closest ally, all for classic “new era resume padding”. Had Jesse made it to the final 3 with Cody, I think it’s more likely he wins. Again, we will never know for sure, but it was more likely he can beat Cody in the end than it was that he wins at fire or final immunity.

    It's hard for me to judge Jesse's move because... could Jesse have beaten Cody or Karla in front of the jury? Was there an option where both Jesse/Karla are in F4 and Karla is the one that loses the final fire-making challenge instead of Jesse? But I agree with Peridiam that at F6, playing the Idol for Owen (thus making Karla waste hers), he fully commits to Karla being gone at F5 and puts himself in this timeline where he becomes the obvious threat to win the jury but is still not favored to win any Immunity Challenge and the biggest fire-making threat (Gabler) is still in the game.

    If you ever did a big brother version of this, i would say that one that sticks to my head would be cody (as much as i despise him) when he convinced elena to not take the veto during the yankee swap competition in big brother 19. With her both winning the competition, AND being a nominee it should have been an easy decision to take the veto in the situation, leaving Cody to be an easy backdoor, but since Matt had the veto and being a third nominee not controlled by the HOH, Matt winning was the best circumstance for Cody had he chosen to use it on himself. The downside was every being under Paul's control and doing whatever they said to do, leading Matt to use the veto on Jason instead of himself to once again backdoor Cody

    Dude, nooooo. Cody was Jesse's ONLY chance of getting to final 3. He was constantly trailing in every challenge and never came close to winning one, and he knew he couldn't make fire. His ONLY chance was for Cody to win the final challenge, take him along, and then argue that he was the brains behind the operation. Without Cody, Jesse had no path to final 3 and was never going to get higher than 4th place.

    I VEHEMENTLY disagree that Jesse taking out Cody was in any way a good move. It is arguably the dumbest move of the new era (and probably in the top 10 of all time).
    1) Cody was not a lock to win if it’s him and Jesse sitting at the end. Jesse’s resume was stacked and he could make a pretty good argument that Cody was just doing whatever Jesse told him most of the game.
    2) taking out Cody took out his only route to Final Tribal. Cody would have taken him to the end if Cody won the final immunity (which he probably would have). Without Cody, Jesse’s season played out exactly how many of us predicted the night he blindsided him.
    3) this isn’t revisionist history for me. The night of the Cody blindside I called what would happen.
    I am shocked at the people who try to paint this move as anything but terrible.

    • @XanderMatthews-nv9zf
      @XanderMatthews-nv9zf 3 місяці тому

      Cody absolutely crushes Jesse at the end from my point of view so a lot of this doesn’t hold up, it is always better to swing for the fences then wait too long to make a move
      And truth be told had he gotten a final immunity challenge like simmotion he could have pulled it off, Cassidy and Owen really only excelled at the balance challenges
      If Jesse doesn’t take Cody out then Karla likely gets blindsided actively inflating Cody’s resume

      However, he needed to make himself stand out and since he used a sure fire way to secure surviving final 6 and final 5 while showing the jury some impressive management of idols, all he needed was to find a way to either win final immunity or be competent at fire making.

      @@JaredTVW Exactly. Jesse has no one else to blame but himself for things falling the way they did. A flashy move is not always a good move, and I think the Cody blindside is the most overrated move of the New Era because Jesse failed to capitalize on it. If he had used his idol afterwards to save Karla, he keeps a wounded shield in the game *and* weakens Karla's standing in front of the jury by making it seem like she needed him to stay in the game.
      Idols are more than just a trinket. They are opportunities to showboat in front of a jury. This is why Rick Devens would've swept unanimously in EoE if he'd gotten to the end. You don't need to be on the right side of the vote all the time, or even driving the votes. You need to make sure the jury thinks you're doing something and making a huge impact in the game. Jesse could have done that. He had the ammo to do it, and he squandered it.
