Episode 11: Flipping the Win Switch

Hi, everyone! Welcome to Week 11 of Survivor this week. Are we excited about the episode? Do we think the season will get better or worse after last week's decent episode? Will Kyle lose immunity this week? Will Caroline have personal content? Will Sue be 45?

Episode 10 Poll

• 12 respondents this week (PLEASE TAKE NEXT WEEK <3)
• Spreadsheet

Top 1, 3, 5

• We have a new winner for the season! Teeny (2.17) beat all, coming up for their first time in top 3 all season.
• Rachel (2.83) and Genvieve (3.42) take the next two spots. This is Rachel's fifth time in top 3, and Genevieve's 6th.
• Kyle (3.75) just misses for this week, and Sue (4.58) takes 5th place, and the highest SD of the episode, marking the first time she has earned that feat.

Bottom 1, 3, 4

• For the eighth and last time, Gabe (8.17) has earned the last-place spot for the episode. It'll be interesting to see if he overtakes Lovett in the boots section this week. This was his 9th time overall in the bottom 3. He currently holds the record for most last places in 46 and 47.
• For the second week in a row, Andy (7.75) and Caroline (6.58) take the other bottom positions. This is the 7th and 4th times respectively. This is the third week that Gabe, Andy, and Caroline have been bottom 3.
• Sam (5.75) round out the bottom 4, just managing to escape the bottom 3 yet again.

Boots

• Another tight week... besides the winner, who was of course Sol (7.08).
• Everyone else finished in the 4-6 range. TK (5.5) and Kishan (5.42) took second and third.
• Bottom 3 consisted of Jon (3.33), Aysha, and Sierra (4.5)
• Rome finished under 5 for the first time (4.92). Truly a roller coaster of emotions with him, but also the change is representative of the low sample set - so vote this week!

Other

• 4th highest ranked episode of the season (6.5). Episodes 3, 4, and 6 all beat it.
• Fourth lowest season score (4.83). Will it rebound? Time will tell.

0-10 Polls

POLLS! We still have a lot of seasons under 40 - I saw some progress this week, but if you could take these polls, that would be great. Remember that voting in them allows your voice to be heard in the community, and your scores truly affect the rankings!

The seasons that are currently under 40 and their links. The number in parenthesis is how many takes it currently has: Fiji (39), Samoa (38), Heroes vs. Villains (39), Redemption Island (36), One World (36), Caramoan (38), Blood vs. Water (39), Cambodia (39), Game Changers (38), HHH (38), Ghost Island (37), Edge of Extinction (36), Island of the Idols (36), Winners at War (36), Survivor 44 (38). As you can probably tell, some of these seasons are close, especially the ones at 38 or 39.

Overall, since the last spreadsheet that came out with the community's rankings (which you can find here), we've had 348 takes. My goal is to get 750 takes by the end of Survivor 48, so please take them if you have time. Remember that you do not need to see all the seasons to take the polls and that the only rule is that you need to take at least 5 for your polls to count.

This week's additional announcement is about 46 again - please edit these if you have time. Recency bias is one helluva drug, and some of the results are conflated. It should only take a few seconds. Here is the poll

Respondents Sheet - This spreadsheet shows which polls you have taken, as well as the # of respondents per season. I update this as soon as I get an email saying a poll has been taken, and it is currently completely up to date.

Peace, love and polls, everyone! See you all Wednesday - I get to watch live this week, so that's exciting!

Episode 10: Loyal to the Soil

Yay, Episode 10! Given the preview and promos that we have seen, I have a much better feeling about this week. It looks like we should be getting some good character-building content, with the rice negotiation being the only twist this week. What are your thoughts though? And how do we feel about the finale being split into two-hour episodes? I am mixed, and it seems like a lot, but it could also be good for characterization. We'll see.

Episode 9 Poll

• We had 12 respondents this week - low respondent rate this week wasn't super surprising given the negative reception on the episode, lol.
• Spreadsheet

Top 1, 3, 5

• We have a new winner! Rachel (2.08) won this week, and pretty handily. This appearance is her fourth time in the top 3.
• Sol (3.42) and Kyle (3.92) got second and third this week. This is Sol's 6th time on the top (and the first time he hasn't won the week when being in the top 3). This is Kyle's fourth time on top.
• Genevieve (4.75) and Sue (5.42) round out the top half of the episode.

Bottom 1, 3, 5

• Ray Lewis couldn't even save Gabe (9.5) this week. This is Gabe's eighth time in the bottom and seventh last place. He also had the lowest SD this week.
• Andy (7.92) and Caroline (6.75) take the other Bottom 3 positions this week. This is Andy's sixth time and Caroline's third time. This exact exact bottom 3 occurred in Week 5.
• Teeny (5.67) and Sam (5.58) round out the bottom 5. Sam had the highest SD this week.

Boots

• A messy, messy week with the boots. TK (5.75) reclaimed his first-place spot for the fifth time. In second place was Tiyana (5.42), who finished bottom 3 last week, and Kishan (5.22).
• Rome (5) floundered this week. Rome got first last week, and I believe this is the biggest drop for a boot so far, in terms of placement.
• Sierra (4.67) performed badly, but that was expected. It'll be interesting to see how much her score drops in the upcoming weeks.
• Aysha (4.25) and Jon (3.5) round out the boots.
• This is Tiyana's highest week, Rome's and Kishan's lowest week.

Other

• Episode 9 (2.58) has the lowest episode score, both for the season and also when I started recording data weekly data.
• This is also the lowest season score (4) of the season.

NEW CHART! The rankings from every episode.

Draft

• Spreadsheet
• Some notes for the week:
  • Reg Screwed Up Section - Rachel played her SITD in Episode 8 - that has now been accounted for and she lost two points.
  • Sol, Teeny, Kyle, Gabe all got an additional point for making it to the back half of the challenge and winning a reward.
  • Sol lost 5 points for getting up first for a live tribal.
  • It was a pretty bad week for almost everyone. Sol dominated, even with a 5-point reduction, getting 9 points total. Kyle and Rachel also did well, and this is the first time in a very long time that Gabe is positive. Caroline is our loser again this week, slipping into the negatives again because of her journey. Andy also got 4 points for having the episode title and surviving tribal, but immediately lost it for going on a journey and doing poorly in the episode poll. Fitting?
• Point Values:
• Sue (+1) 42
• Sol (+9) 38
• Rachel (+4) 34
• Sam (+2) 26
• Kyle (+5) 24

Episode 9: Nightmare Fuel (sigh)

Hello everyone and welcome to week 9 of Survivor! Are we excited for the week? Do we think anything of note will happen this week? What was the twist Jeff was discussing at the challenge? Who do we think is going home this week? Only time will tell!

Poll

• We had 18 respondents this week. Thanks for the turnout, this is the highest since 45.
• Spreadsheet - I have a cool new page on there showing the strong feelings stat! Remember to check this out if you want to see past stats, who has taken the polls, conditional averages, and now strong feelings!

Top 1, 3, 6

• For the fifth week in a row, SOL (1.89), Sol took the lead and sprinted with it. Sol also had the lowest SD for the second week in a row (0.9)
• Kyle (3.17) and Rachel (3.5) got second and third place this week. This is their third time getting a top 3 position.
• Rounding out the top 6 (after a tight race for the bottom) are Genevieve (5.22), Sue, and Caroline (both 6.67).

Bottom 1, 3, 5

• Gabe (9.72) continues his streak. This appearance is his 6th time in the last and 7th overall. Gabe has not gotten a positive feeling (top 3 position) from anyone since Episode 1.
• Andy (7.89) and Teeny (7.22) take the bottom three positions this week. Teeny previously has not ranked in either the top 3 or bottom 3, and she is the last character still in the game to complete this feat. This is Andy's 5th time at the bottom.
• Sam (7.17) was in a race for the bottom 3 with Teeny almost the entire time, but he pulled ahead barely. Sierra (6.89) is also here.

Boots

• A tense struggle for first ultimately led to Rome (5.72) making his first 1st place among the boots. TK (5.5) and Kishan (also 5.5, tie broken with SD) were right behind him with both leading at some point. This is TK's lowest average.
• Anika (5.22) and Tiyana (5.17) also had good showings this week. This is Anika's lowest average.
• Aysha (4.17) and Jon (2.94) also saw their all-time lows this week.

Other

• The episode (5.6), was largely neutral, but given its mixed reception here, it makes sense. It's 4/8 in terms of ranking all the episodes, with 3, 4, and 6 ranking higher.
• S47 overall saw a very slight bump in averages this week (5.5), which has been a trend lately. After Episode 6, the average was 5.42, and Episode 7 was 5.5.

Draft

• Other Notes
  • Retroactive Points - I was debating giving Genevieve and Teeny points last week for their role in the immunity challenge - technically they did win immunity for everyone around them and it was individual. Since they outlasted Kyle, I went ahead and gave them 2 points, and I'll make that a precedent if that type of challenge happens again.
  • I decided to give points for the auction this week - if you got at least one positive thing, you got a point. Gabe, Caroline, and Andy were the only ones to not get a point since Gabe got the coconut, Caroline got fish eyes, and Andy did not have an opportunity to bid.
  • Sue + Kyle both got points for the individual immunity
  • Kyle and Gabe lost points for giving analogies at tribal. Gabe's was about WW1 and Kyle's was about gladiators
  • Rachel loses 2 points for the idol hunt content. No one else as far I am aware was a part of it, sans everyone being around the shelter. That is too unspecific for me to take points off though.
• Points - Great week for Rachel, despite losing points. Kyle and Sol also had good weeks with their bonuses, and Sue also sees a bump despite not getting top 3. Awful week for Gabe, which at this point should be unsurprising.
  • Sue (+4) 41
  • Rachel (+8) 32
  • Sol (+7) 29
  • Sam (+2) 24
  • Kyle (+6) 19
  • Rome (+3) 16
  • TK (+1) 15
  • Sierra (+9) 14
  • Genevieve (+2) 14
  • Tiyana (-1) 14
  • Andy (+2) 11
  • Teeny (+1) 11
  • Anika (0) 10
  • Kishan (+1) 8
  • Aysha (-1) 7
  • Jon (-1) 2
  • Caroline (+1) -3
  • Gabe (-4) -16

Touchy Subjects

I was going to do Touchy Subjects last week but forgot, lol. Here are the results for the mergatory (Rome) and first jury member (Sierra). No one predicted Rome as mergatory, while two people, including rankdown IX's u/josenanigans. Here's the chart that depicts our choices

0-10 Polls

POLLS! Specifically, those seasons that still have under 40 respondents. We have about ~68 total respondents at this point, and I'd love to see that number increase over time so we can get some new takes in the system!

The seasons that are currently under 40 and their links: Fiji, Samoa, Heroes vs. Villains, Redemption Island, One World, Caramoan, Blood vs. Water, Cambodia, Game Changers, HHH, Ghost Island, Edge of Extinction, Island of the Idols, Winners at War, Survivor 44. This did not change from last week (again) (again).

Overall, since the last spreadsheet that came out with the community's rankings (which you can find here), we've had 340 takes. My goal is to get 750 takes by the end of Survivor 48, so please take them if you have time. Remember that you do not need to see all the seasons to take the polls and that the only rule is that you need to take at least 5 for your polls to count.

Something I want to advertise this week is incentives! Don't forget that if you did all your polls, you get to add bonus points to characters that you like! Please take advantage of this. Check out the linked document titled "Incentives" below. That'll show you how the hierarchy works. But, if you have done 1-10 polls, you get to add one point, 11-20 you add two points, 21-30 you add three points, 31-40 you get to four points, and if you have done AT LEAST 45, you get to add SIX! Please DM me if you have any questions or want to add incentives. These can bump people up or down more than you think.

Episode 8: He's All That

Almost forgot to do this... not because there was a historically altering event last night or anything. Yay, Survivor tho.

Polls

• We only got 11 respondents this week. Please, please, please do the poll for Episode 8!
• Don't forget to check out the spreadsheet for the season! Compare stats HERE

Top 1, 3, 6

• Sol (1.45) demolished the competition this week, getting only 1s and 2s, perfect strong feelings (11/11), and the lowest SD of the week (0.52). This is his fourth time in the top 3 AND winning the week, all in a row.
• Rachel (4.09) and Genevieve (4.73) finished second and third this week, respectively, for their second time in the Top three.
• Tiyana (5.18), Kyle (5.64), and Sue (6.36) finished in the top half this week. This is Sue's first time not being in the top three.

Bottom 1, 3, 6

• Mount Rushmore head? Sure... Rankdown favorite? No. Gabe (11.27) got destroyed yet again in the polls, for his sixth time at the bottom and fifth last-place appearance.
• Sierra (8.82) and Andy (8) filled out the bottom 3. This is Sierra's second time and Andy's fourth. Andy also had the highest SD for the week (4.22)
• Rounding out the bottom half are Teeny, Sam (both 7.73) and Caroline (7).

Boots

• Rome (5.82) started out a lot more neutral than I initially predicted (likely due to the lack of responses this week), and ultimately, TK (5.91) took first place. It was a close race though.
• Kishan and Anika tied for 3rd and 4th (5.45), but Kishan gets the points in the draft for having a lower SD. This is Kishan's lowest score.
• Aysha (4.45) and Jon (3.82) are our clear losers this week. This is Aysha's lowest score.
• Still, this season reeks of neutrality so far, so it'll be interesting to see those scores, as well as those booted increase or decrease, and see if we have any positive or negative feelings in the future.

Other

• Third lowest episode (4.55) score of the season.
• Third highest season (5.45) of the season. It was also higher than last week!

Draft

• Spreadsheet

Additional Notes (Many)

• The winning "tribe" or team all got a point for winning immunity.
• Everyone got a point for "surviving tribal"
• I gave both Sol and Rachel two points for the Safety Without Power.
• Everyone got 2 points for making the merge. I should have given that out last week, but this works too!
• Tiyana lost 5 for starting a live tribal (i.e. first person to get up)
• Sol and Andy lose two points for the advantage hunt. Sierra lost one point for specifically commenting on it, but not participating.
• I almost gave Teeny -25 for the Black Widow Alliance mention, but decided that was too harsh. So, the new rule for past players is that if Black Widow is mentioned in any capacity, they lose 5.

Overall Points

• BIG point week for almost everyone, but nothing beats what Rachel got this week. Sol, and Genevieve also excelled this week, while Teeny and Gabe floundered at the bottom. Caroline still has some work to do to get out of the negatives. This is also the lowest point value for Sue so far.
  • Sue (+2) 37
  • Rachel (+12) 24
  • Sol (+9) 22
  • Sam (+4) 22
  • Tiyana (+7) 15
  • Kyle (+5) 13

  • Rome (+2) 13
  • Genevieve (+7) 10
  • Anika (-1) 10

  • Aysha (-1) 8

  • Sierra (+1) 5
  • Jon (-1) 3

I have no notes this week! Overall this was a GREAT week for Kyle especially, and Andy, Sol and Sue also did great. Rome got his placement bonus as well. Bad week for Caroline and Gabe, as per usual. Once Caroline gets her edit above the 2 confessional mark, she'll be golden.

0-10 Polls

I love polls! I am asking you all to do some polls! POLLS! Specifically, those seasons that still have under 40 respondents. We have about ~68 total respondents at this point, and I'd love to see that number increase over time so we can get some new takes in the system!

The seasons that are currently under 40 and their links: Fiji, Samoa, Heroes vs. Villains, Redemption Island, One World, Caramoan, Blood vs. Water, Cambodia, Game Changers, HHH, Ghost Island, Edge of Extinction, Island of the Idols, Winners at War, Survivor 44. This did not change from last week :sob:

Overall, since the last spreadsheet that came out with the community's rankings (which you can find here), we've had 340 takes. My goal is to get 750 takes by the end of Survivor 48, so please take them if you have time. Remember that you do not need to see all the seasons to take the polls and that the only rule is that you need to take at least 5 for your polls to count.

Here are the important links for the 0-10 Polls -

Masterlist - This link has every single poll on it. Scroll through to find the seasons that you want, and they should take you directly to the Google Form.

Respondents Sheet - This spreadsheet shows which polls you have taken, as well as the # of respondents per season. I update this as soon as I get an email saying a poll has been taken, and it is currently completely up to date.

Incentives - A tiered incentive system is also in place for the polls! Attached here is a Google doc that explains this more in detail. DM me if you have any questions!

Peace, love, and polls people, and see you all Wednesday!

Episode 5 Poll (15 Respondents This Week)

• Lovett (3.6) continued his last-place domination, with his lowest score, and Aysha (4.73) also took a hit for the week.

Other

Episode 5: The Scales Be Tippin

Are we excited for Survivor this week? Do we think Rome is going to have a downfall? Will Andy be OTT again? Does a bear sleep in the woods? Are we excited about the twist? Is Tuku going to get more character development? Should I stop asking so many questions? Do you like brownies?

Episode 4 Polls

• We had 16 respondents this week!
• Spreadsheet for 47: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Mggqkuepg-g8CBECtVYqFWjz9bProIo2Pu8RmtEZc_Y/edit?gid=1753189945#gid=1753189945

Top 3

• An upset! This week, our new winner is Sol (2.5)! From being bottom 2 the first week to winner now, he has truly made a comeback. This is his first time in the top 3. He also had the lowest SD of the week for the second time.
• In second place is the everlasting 45-year-old, Sue (3.88)! This is her first time not being #1 for the week. White rapper, Sam (6.5), is in third place this week after a close battle. This is his first time in the top 3.
• In fourth and fifth place respectively are Rome (6.75 and the highest SD of the week at 5.69) and Genevieve Spralin-Wolfe (6.81).
• Rounding out the top half (top 8) are Evil Gay Kishan (6.94), Chicken Sierra (7.44), and Jim "Teeny" Halpert (7.5). Lavo party this week.

Bottom 3

• For the second week in a row, the "emotional" Gabe (13.19) took last place. This is his third appearance in Bottom 3.
• Tuku is filling up the bottom section this week, as Tiyana (11.56) and Caroline (11.13) took their places in the bottom positions this week. This is Tiyana's second time and Caroline's first time.
• Rounding out the bottom 5 is the dude who lost his shot in the dark (10.06) and yet another Tuku, Kyle (9.06).
• Anika (7.75) and Rachel (8.94) AKA Breadwinners rounded out the bottom half this week.

Boots

• Aysha (5.06) faired pretty well for her first week and got second place overall. Do we think that score will go down with time?
• TK (6.44) beat his score last week by .06, while Lovett (3.63) went down from last week.

Other

• Four characters have not had a top 3 or bottom 3 position in the season rankings. While Jon and Kishan will unfortunately stay that way, Sierra and Teeny still have a chance.
• Episode ranking was 7.63. This is now the highest-ranked episode between 46 and 47, which was when I began taking episode scores.
• The current season ranking (6.06) almost beats all of Season 46, being .02 higher than its peak, which was Episode 10 (Applebees Gate)

Reg made a mistake section:

• I realized this week that I never gave the members of Gata a point for winning the first challenge for flint! That has been corrected and everyone from Gata was bumped up one point.
• I am also questioning whether I should give TK points for him winning the first journey because that was technically an individual challenge - thoughts on this?

Other notes

• Idol hunt happened this week, sadly. Sue Smey loses 2 points for finding the idol, and Tiyana loses one point for losing it. I opted to not score Caroline negatively this week because while she was there, she only had an indirect comment on Sue and not having an idol.
• We had a three-way tie for confessionals this week (7 for Teeny, Rome, and Sol), so they all got three points.
• Total Points - Sue is still in the lead, Sol saw a remarkable rebound, Caroline took a hit and Genevieve still flounders even with her great week. Remember that parenthesis indicates how many points they got this week.
  • Sue (+5) 25
  • Sam (+4) 11

0-10 Polls

Once again, I am asking you all to do some polls! Specifically, those seasons that still have under 40 respondents. We have about ~67 total respondents at this point, and I'd love to see that number increase over time so we can get some new takes in the system!

The seasons that are currently under 40 and their links: Fiji, Samoa, Heroes vs. Villains, Redemption Island, One World, Caramoan, Blood vs. Water, Cambodia, Game Changers, HHH, Ghost Island, Edge of Extinction, Island of the Idols, Winners at War, Survivor 44, Survivor 46.

Overall, since the last spreadsheet that came out with the community's rankings (which you can find here), we've had 334 takes. My goal is to get 750 by the end of Survivor 48, so please take them if you have time. Remember that you do not need to see all the seasons to take the polls and that the only rule is that you need to take at least 5 for your polls to count.

Further, I haven't done a 0-10 Poll Breakdown in a while so here it is - each season is categorized by # of respondents. The parenthesis next to it describes how many polls have been taken since June. As you can see, we're starting to get a pretty big nadir with the lowest season, so I'd love to see that 36 total bump up over time.

48 - Borneo (10)

45 - Africa (12), Gabon (10)

44 - Pearl Islands (44)

43 - Outback (10)

42 - Marquesas (10), Guatemala (7), Panama (8), Worlds Apart (7)

41 - All-Stars (7), Vanuatu (8), Palau (6), Micronesia (8), Tocantins (9), Nicaragua (7), Philippines (7), Cagayan (7), KR (7), DvG (6), 42 (6), 43 (7)

40 - Thailand (8), Amazon (8), Cook Islands (7), China (7), SJDS (7), MvGx (5), 41 (7), 45 (7)

39 - Fiji (8), Cambodia (6), 46 (9)

38 - Samoa (8), HvV (7), BvW (7), Game Changers (7), HvHvH (6), 44 (7)

37 - Caramoan (5)

36 - Redemption (7), One World (7), Ghost Island (5), EOE (5), IOTI (6), WaW (5)

My LAST PPA (Public Poll Announcement) is to remind everyone to check and edit their 46 scores. Lots of people did them after the season came out, and it might be a good time to check over them since opinions have settled and recency bias is less of an issue.

Episode 4: Is That Blood in Your Hair?

Welcome to Week Four of Survivor 47! Are we ready to watch the Tuku tribe violently murder Sue? What about Gabe do we need more confessionals from him? Will Andy stab a bag of rice or one of his teammates this week? Will Sam tackle Anika to the ground? Will TK be allowed back in the game? These are the questions we must ask!

Episode Polls

• This week we had 13 people take the poll!
• Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10D3zQBqRd0mWgvTT_MRXm76kS71-QfHtKC65-oaj0XI/edit?gid=582403253#gid=582403253

Top 3, 5 and 8

• Top 3 was CLOSE this week, but like usual our victor is AVIATION MASTER SUE SMEY (4.23)! This is her third 1st place!
• Following closely behind her were Anika (4.38) and Kyle (4.69) - these three were switching spots all week and all were in first place at least once!
• Top 5 is rounded out by Rachel (6.77) and Sam (6.85)
• And Top 8 was: Kishan (7.6), Aysha (7.92) and Sol (7.92). This is Sol's first time getting first half of the season, and not in Bottom 3.

Bottom 3, 5 and 8

• Gabe took his first bottom spot of the season this week (13.38) - will he get more? Probably!
• Rounding out bottom 3 is Invisible Genevieve (12.31) and Tiyana (11.15) - Tiyana is the first person to have a top 3 and bottom 3 appearance this season.
• Bottom 5 is rounded out with Caroline (10.31) and Teeny (10.08)
• And Bottom 8 are the controversial people + Sierra - Andy (10), Sierra (9.46) and Rome (8.85).

BOOTS!

• In the largest fight of the century, TK vs. Jon... the ultimate victor is TK! (6.38). Lovett (4.31) did slightly better than last week.

Other

• This is the highest ranked episode so far, at 6.77.
• This is also the highest week so far for the season, at a 5.62.

• Notes for this week
  • I accidentally took off -3 points for Sam last week, when he should've only had -2 for the idol hunt scenes. That has been corrected this week.
  • Returning Players:
    • This week, I established a new point set under this rule - people who are mentioned in a past cycle means that the castaway loses 1 point per person mentioned. So 45/46 lose 1 point per mention unless something like Bruce randomly mentioning Kane occurs. So with that in mind, three people are affected by this
    • Gabe - I took 5 points off for Gabe for showing the clips of the 46ers who didn't play an idol, one for each person (Jem, Hunter, Tiffany, Venus, Q)
    • Kishan - loses 1 point for mentioning Q
    • Rome - loses 5 points for mentioning Boston Rob
  • Aysha loses points for giving an analogy at TC (group chat)
  • Kyle/Anika/Rome all lose points for going on a journey
  • Yet again, Sue is our winner this week, and she continues to have the most points out of anyone. Let's get into the individual point evaluation - p
    • Sue (+6) 20
    • Aysha (-2) 10
    • Rachel (+1) 6

POLLS

I love polls! Don't forget to take other seasons while Survivor 47 is going on if you haven't yet. The sooner the better on those, and we are also getting really close to 2,000 poll takes (only 150+ more) and every take matters!

Episode 3: Belly of the Beast

Hello everyone, and welcome to week THREE of Survivor 47! What expectations do we have for this week? How much screen time will Rome get? Will the faux-showmance be good television? Are we AMPED for SUE SMEY?! & speaking of Sue...

POLL RESULTS (link to the sheet is HERE

• We had 15 respondents this week

Top 3

• For the second time in a row, Sue (2.8) is our winner for the week! Let's hope she can nap easily ever getting that achievement again.
• In second and third place are the rice-snatcher Rachel (4.87) and the queen of having emotions Tiyana (5.2).
• Rounding out Top 5 is TK, bro (6.07) and the box revealer Teeny (7.47)
• Finishing out Top Half is Kishan (can start a fire in three seconds) (7.53), Caroline (knows what the purple rock is) (8.07), Anika (will tell everyone about an idol) (8.13) and Kyle (NO!) (8.2). Top half was really close this week, so it'll be exciting to see if any shakes up next week.

Bottom 3

• Last for the week is Canadian Queen Genevieve (14.87).
• The Disappearing Sol (14.27) and Gabe "calls his alliance partners wounded birds" Ortis (13) round out the bottom 3. Sol had the lowest SD for the week.
• Bottom 5 is tied between the coconut king Andy and Sierra + her awesome sweater (10.87). Andy had the highest SD for the second week in a row.
• Rounding out the bottom half (bottom 8) are Sam, who did NOT get enough confessionals IMO (10.6), next On Fire with Jeff Probst host, Rome (10.47) and an actual podcaster, Aysha (9.73)

Jon Lovett/Other

• Jon had an average of 4.13. Lots of neutral scores, and it'll be interesting to see how he scares up against TK since results against him seem mixed at this point.
• This week's episode was above a 5! 5.47 to be exact. The season in general is skewing lower than 46 at this point, however (Season score = 4.27).

• Quick Point Explanations:
  • Last season, I gave Jelinsky points for being the first boot, but for this season I will not be doing that for Jon. Next week he'll be up against TK, and whoever gets first will get 3, and whoever gets last will lose one points
  • Idol Hunts - Everyone from Gata lost points this week for being involved in that monstrous idol hunt. Andy, Sierra, Anika, Sam all lose two points for actively narrating it, while Rachel loses one for being indirectly involved.
• SUE is our winner this week, getting 9 points. Sol and Genevieve fans are reeling, with both losing a pretty large chunk of points.
• Overall point values this week (first parenthesis is how many they gained in week 2, and second is their current total):

POLLS!

I love polls! Don't forget to take other seasons while Survivor 47 is going on if you haven't yet. The sooner the better on those, and we are also getting really close to 2,000 poll takes (only 150+ more) and every take matters!

Some helpful links with the 0-10 polls:

Masterlist - This link has every single poll on it. Scroll through to find the seasons that you want, and they should take you directly to the Google Form.

Respondents Sheet - This spreadsheet shows which polls you have taken, as well as the # of respondents per season. I update this as soon as I get an email saying a poll has been taken, and it is currently completely up to date.

Incentives - A tiered incentive system is also in place for the polls! Attached here is a Google doc that explains this more in detail. DM me if you have any questions!

Anyway, see you all Wednesday night with the next episode polls - peace love and polls!

Episode 1: One Perfect and Glorious Episode

Good morning everyone! I know, I know, it's a little early to be making the Episode 1 Post, but I am super busy next week and wanted to get it up relatively early before I forgot. How do we think the first episode will be? How do we feel about the episode title? Do we still have high hopes going in? Or are we going in with relatively low expectations just to prepare our jaded hearts for rejection? Is that too poetic for 10:00 AM in the morning? YES!

SURVIVOR 47 POLLS

I also got a shit ton of polls going on for Survivor 47, which should be a surprise to no one -

First Impressions 0-10 Poll - Rank the cast based on your initial feelings about them. I like releasing the results of this poll after the season is over to see how wrong we inevitably were.

Survivor Draft - Draft your dream Survivor tribe for the season! There are point values attached to that poll, and you could even win 10 dollars if you win! Making bank, right?

NEW POLL: Touchy Subjects 47 - I created this poll a few days ago, but we all like touchy subjects, right? Answer these questions about the cast, like who is winning, who do you think will be the most controversial character, and which one will be a gamebot - should be another one where we see how wrong we are.

Note that all three of these polls will close right before the episode on Wednesday, so if you have time please take them!

I will try to get Episode 1's poll out after the episode is over. Unfortunately, I can't watch live this year (the first time in over a decade!), so it could vary with time, but I'll try my hardest. Polls will work exactly the same as last time - rank the main cast 1-18 for Episode 1, and then for Episode 2, rank the remaining cast 1-17, and rank the first boot separately on the 0-10 scale, etc. There will also be questions asking for episode & season rankings.

MORE POLLS!

No post by me on the Rankdown Reddit would be complete with an additional section on the main poll series. I am still trying to get more people to take some of the lower-end seasons, so if you have time please do so! We're getting really close to 2,000 total poll takes as well, and I'd love to reach that soon!

As a reminder, here are those seasons that could use a bump in their rankings (basically those under 40 respondents), with a corresponding link to go with them: Thailand, Amazon, Fiji, Samoa, HvV, Redemption Island, One World, Caramoan, Blood vs. Water, Cambodia, Game Changers, HvHvH, Ghost Island, Edge of Extinction, IOTI, Winners at War, Survivor 41, Survivor 44, Survivor 46. Some of those seasons could use a little bit more TLC than the others, but please take them if have seen them! And yes, I realize that this community are not enamored with these per se, BUT that just means you get to tank them - and isn't that more fun sometimes?
