Atropos
I love Alex and I know how dedicated he'll be (he already is showing it- he woke up early to do school projects so that he has all night free) but his schedule definitely worries me and I was pretty vocal about that in our casting process. I think he'll commit as much as he can but I truly believe his wednesdays schedules could hurt him (like for example this week the first tribal will be on Wednesday and if his tribe loses he wouldn't be around all day to help scheme and strategize). I could see him going mid to late prejury as a result. But on a personal level I love this guy so much and would want to see him prove me and my doubts wrong. He is great socially for the most part but he also will not be quiet if he disagrees with someone about a hot button issue (like race or sexism). He's also loyal to a fault. I played a game with him where he had already promised his vote so he was 100% not willing to switch.
Ceejae was one of my very favorite interviews. She's loud she's bubbly, she's smart, she is someone who i don't know a lot about which honestly is rare in this community so I'm super excited to see what she brings to the game (she's also on my prod fantasy team so like no pressure but i'll basically shun you if you disappoint me- just kidding maybe)
Okay literally I already adore Chris. ADORE. If I didn't already have 8942632 children, I'd adopt him. Hell I still might. He's funny, he's quirky, he's extremely smart. He's active in his prod chat already and seems excited. He tricked Sam into thinking he's shy so like he's got that going for him. I can definitely see him going far if he puts in the effort to get close to tribe mates. There are some bigger personalities so he could probably shine as an UTR person.
I don't really know a thing about Jenn but I have seen her around the community lately and she seems to be one of those people who genuinely you love or hate. I'm going to reserve my judgments till I see her in the game, but based on what I know, if her and Sarena meet up in the game there will be drama. If her tribe loses I could see her being one of the first boots just based on the other personalities.
And Naomi I don't know at all. I literally haven't even had time to watch her interview so my opinions are based on other people who do know her and have watched her interview comments, she will probably be social but not as strategic and could potentially be an early boot? I personally love newbies to the community and she's a female so like i double hope she surprises us and goes far. | |

Clotho
Amberly: I'm in a group chat with Amberly's significant other and we've been trying to get Amberly for Endure for awhile so I'm super excited to have her playing. She definitely comes across as timid and nervous in her interview, she seemed to feed off Stephens's shrek love too but ultimately I think it helped calm her nerves a bit. For me there was never any question about having her in the cast and after hearing how her discord survivors gone, I'm super excited for her to play. She gets super invested and I think she won't have any issue fitting in on her tribe.
Aaron. Shoutout to the Big Ballers. I've known Aaron for a couple years. This will technically be the 4th time I've hosted him. I've also played with him. If he likes a cast or a game he's super invested and gives his all. If he doesn't, he doesn't care and it reflects in his gameplay. He can be pretty loyal but he knows or knows of quite a few people and I can see that being his downfall here. If I were a newbie in this game, I'd probably want to take out the guy who knows more people. But the "dream state" might be his best asset initially since they'll only know their tribe. I still predict a prejury boot for him though post swap
Devon I love mainly for his picture. Also anyone who can put up with Sam in nature and hungry is someone I can support. I think every game needs that gamebot and I think Devon is going to be that person. He is SO analytical and I lowkey love it. Every answer he gave he really analyzed. That will be useful in challenges but i think it'll also rub other players the wrong way. I think Aaron and him will bond on their straightness (i gagged typing that) but I think that Aaron would leave before Devon unless Devon pissed someone off significantly and Devon could get by till merge.
Jessaca. Any woman who can put up with Kilby as long as she has is a SURVIVOR. I watched ehr in both of her power seasons and she is a great well rounded player and I honestly think she's going to run this initial tribe. She's a new enough skype orger to bond with the other newbies, she's experienced enough to help them out, and she's super experienced gameplay wise. I can def see her going deep into the game. I don't know if I see her winning just because she will become a threat down the road.
I didn't really want to cast Danny but every cast needs a first boot? I think the fact that he got rejected in S3 and then went on to trash us speaks volumes. So it'll be interesting to see how the past three years have changed him if at all and if he can make me not regret casting him...

THOTS PRE-SEASON
Hey y'all, just like last season i'm gonna try and do a write-up of my Thots every round, trying to make sure I can say something about each and every castaway in the game (because nobody likes going through a pw thread after playing only to not see anything said about them). The game hasn't stared yet and I don't wanna just write my first impressions so instead I'm gonna give everyone a Tarot card
Clotho Tribe
|
AARON
The Emperor is a card of power and leadership who emphasizes the role of experience in success. Aaron is not a stranger to the ORG world. I bestow this card onto him as a reminder to draw upon the experiences of the past to achieve success.
AMBERLY
The Fool represents vulnerability and a lacking of experience, and encourages the embracing of what is to come and openness to adventure. Amberly, as a newbie, lacks some of the ORG experience that others possess, so I bestow this card onto her to be open to everything to come with this season.
DANNY
The Hanged Man tells of small sacrifices that must be made to benefit the big picture. As a superfan of the format, Danny may have the desire to make big moves in the name of gameplay that might make his game shortlived. I bestow this card onto him to help lighten his grip on detrimental strategies in the name of longevity in the game.
DEVON
Wheel of Fortune embodies highs and lows and illustrates a lack of permanency. Devon's a strategic mind who may experience great highs in this game, but also great lows. I bestow this card onto him to symbolize the benefit of adaptability to changes in the game.
JESSACA
The Magician serves as a reminder that you already hold the skills you need to accomplish the goal you have set for yourself. I believe Jessaca has a lot of the skills needed to win Endure, and is someone I could easily see being a winner this season. I bestow this card onto her to remember her own strengths and use them well.
LEXI
The Lovers represent the close relationships in one's life. Lexi returns after playing our Blood versus Water season with her boyfriend Ruben. I bestow this card onto her to draw from the strength of her relationships in life to support her as she comes back to play again.

Lachesis Tribe
|
ABBY
The Sun represents joy, vitality, and optimism. Abby comes across as a very fun, energetic, and joyful addition to the cast who will benefit from using those traits in this game. I bestow this card onto her to keep her head up and look for the good in things.
BRYCE
The Hermit embodies the desire for solitude and looking within. Bryce is coming into his first non-alias game, which may be quite an adjustment. I bestow this card onto him as a reminder of the solace of one's own company in overwhelming times.
JACK
Temperance emphasizes the importance of moderation, sending a message that it is better to go with the flow than to force life's pace. I think Jack can be very successful in this game so long as he allows the game to go at its own pace without pushing his agenda too hard. I bestow this card onto him to remain flexible when faced with change.
KAIT
Strength represents the fortitude in one's heart and the ability to withstand anything that crosses your path. Kait is a quieter figure in a tribe of large personalities. I bestow this card onto her to draw on her inner strengths to overcome her obstacles and come out of adversity with even greater power.
MATTHEW
The High Priestess represents intuition and encourages you to follow your instincts and look inside yourself. Matthew comes across as analytical and will likely be carefully studying the people around him. I bestow this card onto him as a reminder of the importance of following his intuition and not forgetting to be aware of himself.
SARENA
The Chariot is connected to determination and drive, and can be indicative of an upcoming victory. Despite an untimely exit last season, Sarena possesses a great drive for success and her determination may carry her far this season. I bestow this card onto her to connect her mind, heart and spirit to achieve great success.

Atropos Tribe
|
ALEX
The Moon represents inner feelings including fear and doubts. Alex has the capacity to perform very well in these games, but his downfall can come from second-guessing himself or doubting whether a certain move is the right move to make. I bestow this card onto him to address his fears and doubts as they arise to get rid of any worry in the game.
ANDERS
The Heirophant is a messenger, bringing lessons of guidance from the heavens into the physical world. Anders comes into this game after making some critical mistakes last season. I bestow this card onto him to help him bring the lessons he has learned from his old mistakes into his new game for more success.
CEEJAE
The Star brings messages of renewal, optimism, and inspiration. Ceejae has potential to play a great game as long as she keeps her head up and doesn't let herself get stuck in negativity. I bestow this card onto her as a beacon of encouragement to have faith in her path.
CHRIS
The World represents completion, success, and fulfillment. Chris is my pre-season favourite and I think he could take this game by storm. I bestow this card onto him to show that he's on the right path to greatness as he prepares for this new journey.
JENN
Justice represents karma, and reminds us of the consequences that arise from every action. Jenn has a rocky history with some of the people she has interacted with prior to this game that she may find coming back to haunt her. I bestow this card onto her to indicate the importance of fairness in interactions with others.
NAOMI
The Empress embodies compassion, beauty, love, and the importance of nature. Naomi has a love for people that could be a powerful tool to help her in this game. I bestow this card onto her as a memento of the strength compassion can provide.

Lachesis
Okay so Bryce I LOVED in his season 1 interview, but it was apparent then that he was not ready to take a skype org seriously (I'm willing to share that interview if anyone wants to see it). I think based on his interview he's ready now and I really hope he's dedicated because I've heard stories and I'm excited to see how he finally transitions to skype orgs. I don't really have any idea what to expect. Apparently he's super emotional in alias so I hope for meltdowns and drama in this especially since you get a lot closer a lot faster in skype.
Abby is literally a star. A freaking star. Like I feel I should say more because she didnt get to have a video but that's all you really need to know.
I love Kait. I played with her before and I was a paranoid psycho mess and was awful at the end but she is honestly a gem. She can be kind of blunt and in our season it rubbed some of the jury the wrong way that they were not even willing to hear her out at Final Tribal. She did win though because she was incredibly smart, had an underdog story and literally masterminded a lot. She's one of the best gamers I've seen and I think she has the ability to relate to a lot of people.
Jack. I remember really liking Jack during his interview. Lmao I remember pming the prod chat to ask if he was straight but honestly now I can't really remember much about him. I think he's a charismatic enough straight guy to do decent in this (more of a Patrick Haught and less of an Aaron DeVault)
And Matthew. Like honestly I really enjoyed Matthew's interview. i think he's just such an interesting persona. He made a comment about being the gayest person on the call and I did NOT get that vibe from him at all. I think he and Kait would get a long really well tbh. I think they would do really well together too. | |

Lachesis
Abby – I don’t know much about Abby, but everyone immediately loved her. From what people have told me, I think she is going to excel on this tribe. She is a louder personality, and that will benefit her on this louder tribe. I am optimistic about her chances!
Bryce – I’m mixed on Bryce – I think he is full of potential, but much like some of my report cards in school, potential doesn’t necessarily indicate success. If he cares a lot, I can see him doing incredibly well – but if he doesn’t fully commit, he is going to have a real hard time. He is someone who has a lot of variance in how successful he will be: I can realistically see Bryce winning or being first boot and both seem equally likely. I don’t have an excellent read on how much passion he will bring to the table, but if he brings it – he’s going to slay. This guy is SO charming.
Jack – I am INCREDIBLY high on Jack. He seems super intelligent, passionate and a versatile social player. I think he could seriously surprise people if they under estimate him. He is my winner pick and I genuinely think he will do great. I see him being the centre of Lachesis because everyone is going to love him, and that will give him an immense amount of social capital. He will also be smart enough to know how to use it effectively!
Kait – I LOVE KAIT!! She is so amazing, but this is not a good tribe for her I don’t think. She has a huge heart, and I think she could do well in the game but she needs to make sure she clicks really well with this group. We’ve joked about this tribe being the “alphas” tribe, and I don’t think that describes Kait. She is super talented in the game and if people give her a chance she can excel in the game. My prediction is she will end up early merge hopefully making a biggish impact!
Matthew – This guy is one of my best friends in the entire world. We are rivals in everything we do – both extremely competitive in all aspects of life. We’re both extremely cartoonish people who love success more than anything. I genuinely think he will do SUPER WELL in this game, and especially on this tribe. This is exactly the group of people he will do well with – he is super A-Type and has a good way bonding with big, loud people. He has many common interests with people in this tribe, too. He is an excellent strategic player, but won’t have a reputation coming in. I think he will play a huge, crazy, awesome game and probably be a fan favourite tragic late merge boot!
Sarena – Oh, Sarena. I’m so happy she is playing! I really hope she does better in this game – and she absolutely has the tools to do so. This tribe should be okay for her if she learns from her mistakes in the previous endure. She is SO likeable, she just needs to be able to be able to mind the gap from being friends to “working together!”. I don’t think Sarena has a chance to win (she is too obviously likeable, ergo threatening) but I think she could be a huge player.
Atopos
Anders – Anders is just the best. I really REALLY hope he does well, and I think this is a tribe where that could happen! There are a lot of “messy” players who might be pretty accepting of someone as out there as Anders. I really think he has potential to do okay, but if he gets anxious it might make him torpedo his own game. I do think the smaller tribe will help him a lot – he only needs to charm 2 people to have a real standing on this tribe, and larger groups are where he suffered more last season.
Chris – 2nd winner pick! Chris oneil is amazing. I don’t think there is a chance he leaves before the merge, and if he does it will be a total travesty. He is so eager and excitable that you just want him to do well. Think this energy will impact the other players, too. He is like the Christian of this tribe (from the current season of Survivor.) People will be fighting to work with him!
Ceejae – Ceejae is amazing. One of my favourite people we cast. She is super passionate about EVERYTHING and brings an intensity that could be extremely fun. I hope she does well – but I fear she might run into danger. She can sometimes be a little bit of a weaker listener, and while she is super charming it could definitely rub people the wrong way in this game. I
Jenn Secular – Jenn I’ve heard some mixed reviews about, but I found her SUPER charming in her interview. I think she has some enemies, but is someone who is super lovely to her friends. The “rough exterior but nice to me” archetype is often super successful, and this feels like a game that Jenn could seriously wreck house in. She has some negative relationships on the cast, but honestly? I think she seems like a stronger player than her enemies, and I think she could come out on top in any spat. I really think we will be seeing her for a very long time.
Naomi - Naomi doesn’t have a mean bone in her body, and I have seen her come in just about every position imaginable. She isn’t a huge strategic player, but she often is connected to the bigger happenings of the game. She is a social THREAT. People always love her, and I think as long as she is active she will do exceptionally well.
Clotho
Aaron – Aaron could do super well. He is very social, and has a lot of connections in this game. He has had a bit of a lazy streak in games recently, and I hope that isn’t the case here. He can definitely turn some people off – he has a very specific humour style that doesn’t always come off the best with people. If people like him, they love him, but he isn’t universally likeable.
Amberly – Not going to lie, I’m not super high on Amberly’s chances. I think she could easily be first boot. She needs to get in the good graces of a big player on this tribe like Jess/Devon/Aaron in order to succeed, I think. I can’t see her ending up in a powerful leader position, so she needs to get under the wing of one of these people who are looking for soldiers. She is super sweet, and she might just be too nice for the game of endure.
Danny – Danny….is a lot. But he is the best. One of my favourites on here, and I think he could do better than it initially seems. Will people be annoyed by him? Yes. But being annoying can be a benefit in the game of survivor, and I think hes on a gamebotty enough tribe to see his benefit. He will probably be a decoy boot for the entire season, but I think he will be here a while. He has massive upside especially if he can somehow make the merge – then he’s not going anywhere. He has a weird charisma that could honestly put him in winner candidates if people try to drag him – which I honestly think is quite possible?
Devon – I don’t have the best read on Devon. I think he might be more likeable than he seemed in his interview, and he is obviously extremely intelligent. He seems to be fairly self-aware of how he comes off, and I think that could seriously endear himself to other people. This is also an excellent tribe for him, and that could mean he is here a while. I could definitely see Devon as a sleeper winner pick.
Jessaca – Obviously I’m biased. I think jess is an incredible player – and she has a lot of connections in the game. She is super strategic, and able to make people underestimate her. This is the first game where she might have a “reputation” and I’m seriously curious to see what that means. Will she faulter or succeed based on her reputation? It is so hard to know. A lot of her old tricks simply won’t work, and so she’ll be forced to play a more upfront game, I believe. I think she will not win, but she will have a giant strategic impact – probably leaving around 7.
Lexi – I genuinely don’t know anything about you but I hope you do super well!
