Obviously, there's no swap this season, it would ruin the theme and the twist, so these people are going to be with each other for a long ass time.
YESSSSSSSS, love that. I love the no swap dynamic also. It's becoming such a trend of too many swaps and I hate it. It makes seasons so hard to watch. With these two tribes I can see the dynamics changing a lot. That is super fun!
Theres too many people so I've just been watching Utren right now but here are my thoughts
Good Positions
1. Jayden, right now I think Jayden is in one the best position on the tribe hes got good personal connections and is on intending starting a group if it hasnt been already with Kilby, Harrison, Jenn and Joey. Jacob does want him out but this is gonna be a battle Jacob loses. Hes got a meat shield in Kilby and I dont think hell go anywhere until Kilby goes. I think hell be able to talk his way out of any trouble he might get in in the future.
2. Joey and Harrison - I feel like these two are playing very similar games but with different people. Joey likes Jenn and Andrew, Harrison had a thing with Jacob (but I think thats over). Kilby and Jayden like both of them and want to work really close with them, but i think they are favoring Harrison over Joey at the moment, but regardless these two arent going anywhere. I do think Kilby and Jayden are giving Harrison more info then they are giving to Joey. They are both are liked by a majority of the tribe, are in with the right people and both have a pretty spot on awareness of what is going on within the tribe in terms of threats and alliances. However, Joey is a lot more paranoid then Harrison.
Midddle
4. It pains me to have Kilby this high because hes not playing the best game but hes not playing the worst. He has a pretty good understaning of the fact that hes over playing but yet hes doing nothing to change his habits of leaking everything to everybody. Harrison who was like #4 on his list of potential allies, now knows literally everything cause Kilby blabbed, and then proceeded to lie to Jayden his #1 about it? Makes no sense. Kilby will be fine this round but each word that come out of his mouth digs grave even deeper.
5. Serena - If Jacob goes this round Serena will not be in a good position but I think shes likeable enough to survive without Jacob and talk her way out of things. I think she thinks shes sitting pretty with her threesome but she only getting herself into trouble. However, I think Kilby or someone else will implode and shell be fine. If Jacob goes this round, I think theyll get rid of Gibson or Tony before taking a shot at her
6. Jenn - Jenn hasnt put out a confessional so its hard to get a read on her, Kilby likes her so much so he almost gave her immunity. Joey likes her but doesnt seem super attached to her, like if she was gonna go he wouldnt stop it. The rest of her alliance dont hate her but they dont particularly like her.
not so great
7. Gibson - It seems like Gibson isnt particulary liked or disliked but people have already thrown out that he wont go this round but potentially later.
8. Jacob - Jacob is in deep doo-doo. Him or Tony will probably go home. Hes somewhat congisant of his positon but he does realize how deep his hole really is. Even Harrison (a real life pal) told me today he doesnt trust Jacob at all....and hes Jacobs #1... yikes. Jayden really wants him out and Jayden has a lot of pull in this tribe. Kilby thinks hes throwing him under the bus, and i think hes ready to strike. jacobs only hope is that the tribe just votes out Tony to postpone the war
9. Tony- Nothing from him everyone thinks hes inactive, hes already been talked as the boot.

I just watched Anders' confessional on 2x speed and I feel like I might have some type of breakdown/that I just drank a triple espresso. This is so painful to watch how oblivious he is to his own overplaying. I cannot believe he is so blatantly showing his distrust of Kurtis/Rob by telling Adrianne and Dustin (much to Adrianne's annoyance) to put him last to try to counter Kurtis' position. Like "hello, on top of how I constantly talk to everyone, have already gotten the first impression immunity etc. I think I'd like this idol clue please". Yikes!
this is some people competing but i don't know who because i'm a shit host who watched vanderpump rules while getting ready for a weekend away instead of helping host
I feel so bad for Jenn right now. She worked her ass off never stopping but couldn't erect the card tower no matter what she tried. She got close countless times but structural integrity was not on her side. For an hour though her hands didn't stop moving. Jayden was super supportive and champed the wall sit and never complained once. Legends in my book. They're here to work.
Also Sarena? Cool as fuck. Also really digging Gibby in this cast and actually think he may surprise people and go further than I initially expected. I think despite him being out there and a bit polarizing, he has a strong enough social game to succeed, potentially late, into the game.
