Dustin - I mean this in the nicest way possible but I think he's going to be the emotional wreck of the season. He flat out said he will be the first one to cry and I can see him pouring his heart and soul into an ally only to be back stabbed. He comes off as someone that trusts way too hard and if he's in the with wrong person then that could bite him in the ass. I like his enthusiasm, he's just not someone I could see myself ever working with.

Jayden - I like the guy. I like that he gets straight to the point and doesn't ramble on constantly. I think he's going to be one of the stronger strategic players this season but I don't see him being gamebotty. Seems like he has a good mix of personality and competitiveness. I can see him going far, but I worry that not having done this type of game before he could fall behind if he doesn't put in the time commitment. But I'm rooting for him.

Daniel - Yo this is my winner pick. This dude reminds me so much of my boy Jacob Harpel. He comes off goofy like Jacob but in the best possible way but he's also super intelligent and just seems to get the overall concept of the game. He talked about being perceived as a huge threat during his last game so hopefully he learned from his mistakes there and can power through this one. If he can do that, he's my winner pick. I love this guy.

Billy - he seems so funny and I can't figure out why. I think it's his mannerisms that just make me laugh because I go great enjoyment out of just sitting there and watching him. I'm really hoping he goes far and I think he can for sure. He doesn't seem like someone who lets his emotions get the best of him and that'll work well for him in a game like this. Hopefully he doesn't give in to any peer pressure! Also I feel bad that he lives with Sam but we all have flaws I suppose.

Serena - Damn she werked that interview. I totally fell in love with her. Just with her likeableness there is no way she is an early boot unless some of these ORGers want to take her out. Definitely one of the faves right now

Alex - Honestly at the start he seemed like a total robot and I was not into it. The more I watched the interview the more I started to like him. I think he really opened up at the end and showed his character.

Harrison - He seemed pretty nervous during the interview but, that was probably just because he was new and nervous. I feel like he won't be the biggest presence in the game and can totally see him playing pretty UTR.

Putman - I hosted Dustin a couple years ago. He is a vibrant character but, still a decent player. I feel like he definitely could have grown up as a player so i'm excited to see how it all works out! I feel like he could have the perception as either really likeable or hateable so, I hope he can mesh well with his tribe.

Jayden - I mean he looks and sounds like a dbag but, I mean i'm sure he isn't. With his timezone he is automatically at an disadvantage in the game but, I hope he can pull through. He seems super fun to watch!

Kurtis - I just recently played with Kurtis and he is a great social player that can get along with anybody that is over 18. He is super cutthroat though makes him super fun to watch. I'm sure Kurtis will play a great game no matter what. Super excited to see him play.

Kilby - More like Killme amiright. He just looks like a gamer dude ya know just like super bro man. I bet he has a podcast he sounds like a guy who has a podcast. Survivor nerd but, he has social skills. I do kinda like gamebots at times and I feel like he has the personality to make a gamebot fun. I hope he doesn't make long confessionals

Billy - That jacket is so large man. I like his cat more than i like him tbh. He does the white person face a lot. I'm probably being too hard but, i'm just bored. I'm excited to see what his gameplay will be like in the game

Andrew Gibson - Gibby I love him so much. The narrative will definitely follow him for the first couple of rounds he is there. I think Andrew is fantastic and always brings the entertainment but, unfortunately his gameplay isn't a type of gameplay that gets you far in games.

Adrianne - I love that her and Andrew were released next to each other since they have beef. I just hosted Adrianne in a game and she was a total social villain and i LOVED it. I kinda hope she actually brings that into this game because, I think it would be fun to see in a Survivor format. She is becoming a seasonal ORGer so she is getting that experience. Can't wait to see what she brings!

Joey - Mooseknuckle. I feel like he will make it very far in the game. I actually kinda love his humor. I really hope he brings some great confessionals because, he has the personality for it. I think he will bring us good gameplay!

Rob - Come on mythbusters. Speaking OF podcasts from Killby this man has a podcast they should team up and be some good podcasters you know. I can't wait for him honestly, I feel like he is one of my faves right now

Jenn - Clearly she is a huge threat going into this game since she just won Conquest. She has a very charming personality that can clearly get her a win if she is there in the end. When I was watching Conquest she really played the fuck out of that game! I have no doubts she will make it far in this game.

Jay - I loved him in Conquest and was one of my faves. I think he is a great personality that this community doesn't really have. I love his I don't give a fuck strategy. Sometimes I think he does come off very dull all though, I think if he finds people he can relate too I think he could get to merge.

S Andrew Gibson - Gibby I love him so much. The narrative will definitely follow him for the first couple of rounds he is there. I think Andrew is fantastic and always brings the entertainment but, unfortunately his gameplay isn't a type of gameplay that gets you far in games.

if Corey can get 4th place last season it seems anything is possible...

And as with every season, you can make the image of the castaway appear if you want by using a word filter. Put two colons around their codename, and the image will automatically appear in the post. Ex: :codename:

Reed--

I like Reed - he seemed fun and very personable, but not in an overbearing OTT sort of way.

I'm not at all familiar with his alias resumé, but as far as I can tell it's easier to transition from alias to open-id, rather the the opposite. While it takes several hours and sometimes days to form bonds with people in alias games, I think it's a lot easier to form something solid through a relatively brief skype call...and just from the interview it feels like Reed would be fun to talk to on-call.

Overall he gives me Sean Faulk vibes - so clearly he's got a good shot to win, right?

Jacob--

I don't really have a hot-take on Jacob. I guess he can have my pre-season liberal-millennial AF award, a very prestigious honor #climatechange #guncontrol.

I think Jacob has the benefit of being a live-game host, like Anders, and knowing what does and doesn't work in games...but unlike Anders, I think Jacob is going to be way more low-key and less threatening. I can see him playing a very solid UTR game.

Julia--

Queen. Absolute Queen.

Michael--

I really don't see Mike being a returnee and 42nd place finisher in season 1 to negatively impact his game. If anything I'd imagine telling people you got 42nd place in a game to be very much beneficial - they'll underestimate you more than anything. Embrace the shitty placement!!

Mike's game plan--make social bonds and turn those into game relationships--is definitely the way to approach ORGs, in my opinion. Just being friendly in the early goings is simple but effective.

He does seem very smart and well-spoken. But Mike also seems self-aware of the fact that he can come across as a threat...which I can definitely see happening come merge time.

Reed is a wild card for me, I could see him being an early boot just as easily as I could see him going deep. There were a few parts of his interview that worried me, just in terms of having a really strong personality and maybe not being as active, but then its clear loyalty is important to him, as well as empathy and that honestly goes a big way in games. Can't make a firm prediction, but I liked him. I love Tori's question about the shoes, it makes me laugh EVEry time, and his were disgusting lmao.

Jacob- I loooveed him, I'd definitely align with him. His self awareness is great, I think it's cool how he wasn't afraid to admit he knows he makes a good impression (because I believe him) and listening, being generous, and being genuinely interested in others takes you SO far in life and in social based situations such as these games. He has a great mix of being a bit nervous/underdog and also very confident and well equipped. I think him and Jenn will get along and I predict very very good things from Jacob!

Julia- I got to preview this interview a bit ago and still haven't recovered. This girl is wild. CAn't wait to see the curses she puts on Andrew Gibson. She won't win this game, but I'm very glad she'll be a part of the cast.

Mike- I realize what he meant by "whoever I'm legally allowed to talk to", but not going to lie my mind thought he had some sort of restraining order or couldn't talk to children. OMG THIS is a live reaction and he just used legally again!! Sam writing the laws! OH THIS IS THE WORLDS BIGGEST FAN, I forgot. I think Mike's move is to find the survivor nerds and sprinkle in charming antidotes. I hope he can redeem himself!

Final pregame thoughts: I think you guys assembled a great cast. What a mix of characters! I wish there were more women, but I know that is out of your control, and I think there's a lot of contenders and a lot of really likable people here. On blue I can see Adrianne-Alex-Billy potentially getting along? With Anders either being loved or rubbing people the wrong way? I think Adrianne will enjoy Julia, and maybe also want to work with Jay after Egypt (which may be his only hope). Not sure exactly what will happen, but I will predict that Adrianne will be the center of whatever alliance ends up forming. On purple, I can realllyyy see Jenn-Jacob-Harrison being a trio with Serena and Tony being major factors in the how the majority is formed. Can't wait to see what all goes down tonight!

Julia is winning. Don’t mess with a witch. She has already cast a spell to ensure she has won

I don't know much about Andrew, I've played one of his minis before but other than that nothing. He definitely seems smart and I'm curious to see if he's going to let his ego get in the way or not. Between his codename on here and just his overall interview, he's this season for of Dru. That ego will be fun to watch. Still, I think he's smart enough to at least make the merge. I hope him and Adrianne both make it there.

Which brings me to Adrianne, who I think is going to be a great character. I like how she openly admitted that it doesn't take much for her to get mad and I hope she brings the knives out and kills some people. Unfortunately, I don't see her making it very far, which is a shame because she's going to be a great character and I want to see her and Andrew stray from whatever gameplan they already have going just to try killing each other. Here's to hoping.

JOEY IS PLAYING. I was so bummed when he had to back out of Solomon Islands because he brings so much to the table. He's got great personality, is a great player and just an overall joy to have in any game. I'm looking forward to watching him do his thing. Like he said, people might get frustrated watching him because he's not a ver flashy player, but he makes up for that in smarts and personality. I can definitely see him being a winner candidate and making it very far.

Better late then never i didnt watch anything but oh well

Blue
- Anders- seems very down to earth, and level headed, and thats very attractive in an ally, I think hell rock pre-merge and be a strength in challenges, however as soon as the merge hits i think hell be seen as a massive threat and idk if hell make it above 7th.
Dustin- I love Dustin i got the pleasure to play with him and he is such a doll, ive seen him make some pretty big mistakes in other games but overall i think hell be late-prmerge or early merge.
Adrienne- Queen. Shes had a good run and i think shell do great on this tribe! I think shell be later merge or a finalist.
Julia- HOLY SHIT. IM SO FREAKING EXCITED, THAT WAS THE BEST INTERVIEW. BOW DOWN BITCHES JULIAS already won.

Everyone else i didnt watch

Pink
- TOny- awwwwwww. I think hell do alright but his win might hurt him.
- Sarena - queen

Harrison- Harrison is by far one of my favortite players in all seasons of Survivor Boston. He is so funny and adorable, his vting confessionals are to die for. He is one of the most kind people I know and I cant wait for him to play. In my game he worked well with women but was also in a bro alliance. He was also one of the smartest players in the game. Spoilers but he makes a move in my season where he convinces the biggest strongest guy who is in a 8-3 minorty not to play his idol. Nobody knows Harrison even talked to him. Harrison tells nobody knowing this guy will tell the jury as they get voted out. And thatsexactly what happened. Hes not afriad to make moves and hell look innocent in the process. I think Harry will at least make merge and i hope he can go evn past that.

Gibson- I love Andrew, but idk if this is the game for him....

Joey- Joey is super smart and he killled Gilligans hes someone taht will easily be over looked but hang in there and end up near the end. However, I do think that Joey is more suited for BB then Survivor.

Jenn- LOVE HER.

Jacob- AH the other survivor Boston host. Ive met Jacob twice and hes very smart and savy. Like anders I think being a host will hep him. I dont think hes played an org in a while, but I hope he does good!

A few interesting dynamics on this tribe. Both being from different Survivor Bostons Harry will figure out who Jacob is and Jacob will probably figure out who harry is too.

2.5 hours to go!

Congrats Julia and Wump on being the final 2 of Endure 6!
