I didn't proofread this at all, just a warning. I’ll start with Limba (the Red Tribe) just because all but two people have their confessionals up to date (no shade @ Jeff & Chris 👀) HOLY FUCK, this tribe has so much going on. When I first heard that two full tribes stayed together I was bummed, but with the combo of Blake, Sarena, Adam, and Jenn they are anything but a cohesive unit. They’re the hot mess express. Now, I will say a lot of this seems to be at the hands of Jenn who just refuses to work with any other vagina within a 100 mile radius, but we’ve seen negative things said about both Blake and Adam by several of their new tribemates. Even before I fully dabbled into confessionals I got the impression and vibe that Blake wanted a lot of control, which I am completely not used to since he usually lays back for a bit. However, him and Adam somewhat being in the center of that 2-1-1-1 vote isn’t a good look. Then you have Adam who is an amazing confessionalist, got a fucking tattoo of three letters of a game that sound like a street drug, but isn’t quite being that well received by his new tribemates. I’m not sure how old Adam is, but he is rubbing several people the wrong way and part of me doesn’t even think he realizes it. I think part of the reason Blake and him got along so well is the fact that they both wanted to be in the driver’s seat this season. People on his tribe prefer him to leave over one of the other three og people from the same tribe that swapped over to nuLimba, but a few obstacles that aren’t even his own doing will probably save him from being first off this tribe. Mike G posted a confessional suggesting using Jenn and all of her hatred for Sarena to off her and use Jenn’s vote to make it 5-3 however, Shon mentioned that he and Jeff(?) wanted Blake gone because they wanna break up the two OG boys which makes sense. Adam also raised several red flags for Shon the first night or so so he isn’t really fooling anybody. Unfortunately, Shon has been a hot fucking mess when it comes to dealing with his idol. I have no idea what he’s doing, but part of me feels like he isn’t the type of player meant to deal with all the power and lying having an idol requires. He admitted to telling Jessica about the idol before the swap with some half ass lie. If he’s gonna be so adamant about “not being dumb” when people try and fool him then he should at least expect others to have a similar mindset. Show us that you aren’t dumb, don’t just tell us because when he talks I can literally see the idol burning a hole in his pocket (even though I also hate playing with idols so I somewhat get it) This tribe has so many interesting and fun dynamics that I don’t want them to lose because I want the tention to fester and quite honestly, losing Blake or Sarena right now would suck. If I had to choose one idk who I’d pick, but it doesn’t even seem like Sarena has done anything wrong besides be born a female whereas Blake has blown up his visibility a bit. Although Jeff hasn’t submitted anything for this past round, I am a stan! This kid is fucking smart and I can truly see him winning the game. I know he says he wants to play a different game than he has in the past and I love that he is challenging himself. Quick last minute thoughts on everyone on this tribe: Jenn- Love her for entertainment purposes, Abi Maria who? I just wish she wouldn’t be such a character if that makes sense? Like I felt so bad watching her crying confessional because I can tell she’s been hurt before/experienced a lot. There’s a reason for why she is the way she is I just wish she didn’t let it hold her back. Mike G- King of walking around his house. I feel like he’s insanely smart and will be good at sitting back and assessing a situation before acting (unlike some of his other tribemates) Chris- No shade, but I know he betrayed Chris L. in Survivor Maryland, but I don’t know if that was one of the two seasons I watched or not so yikes. He seems like a lazy confessionalist which sucks because I can tell he’s funny. I wish he’d submit more stuff. Blake- I absolutely loved the first game I got to view Blake in. I know he isn’t stupid, but I just feel like he’s being messy and I HOPE he senses he’s in trouble and at least throws Adam under the bus if it comes down to being Adam or him. Sarena- So fucking funny. I wish she’d even confess more tbh. I’ve been in a similar situation where you’re on a tribe with someone who you just don’t click with and it kind of stunts you. If it came down to her or Jenn leaving I think I’d choose Jenn leaving only because I don’t see Jenn being taken seriously and possibly see her being dragged to the end as a goat. Whereas Sarena has the potential to make money moves. Adam- I am truly shook by how much he’s hated by his new tribemates, but I’m happy because it adds to the drama so bring it on. Can’t believe he might get clocked pre merge with that tattoo on his knee. His tribe is savage. Jeff- Watch him. He’s my winner pick right now in the entire game. Shon- Hoping he starts to think before he acts because he's shown through confessionals that he is privy to more than people think he is.

Ok here are my thoughts on the players based on round 3 confessionals. I apologize in advance because I've only played one org, so I really have no idea about past games, and past relationships.... and I'm drunk.
Limba
Blake - I'm a big fan of someone who isn't afraid to make big moves, and I was living for that 2-1-1-1 tribal, which was most certainly orchestrated by Blake. I'm glad he's realizing that he needs to dial back the game play a bit, because I think he's doing too much too soon, and it's messing up his game play for the long term. I just hope it isn't too little too late for him.
Adam - I freaking love Adam. He delivers awesome confessionals and what a freaking stud for getting a tattoo of XTC. That's dedication. Unfortunately for Adam, Shon would totally be willing to vote someone out that got a tattoo to win the scavenger hunt, and Mike really didn't seem to like the fact that Adam mentioned Mike previously won a twitter game. So, he could be in trouble.
Sarena - Icon. Queen. Love her. Her confessionals are AMAZING. If she makes it to the merge, she really could fuck shit up. Sadly, Mike sees the Jenn/Sarena feud as an opportunity to break up the OG Krio 4, which may send Sarena packing over Jenn. If I were Sarena, I'd be PISSED to go home before Jenn. Fingers crossed she works some magic for her social game to get the target off her back.
Jenn - Yikes. What a mess. Her confessionals make me laugh though. "I'm the wife, Adam's the husband, and Sarena's the mistress." LMAO She really screwed herself over from the beginning by saying "I don't work with girls." Newsflash - I'm a tomboy too, and I like talking to guys too, but that doesn't mean you completely cut yourself off from other women whom I 100% guarantee have also formed relationships with dudes. So when dudes hear you talking shit about another ally.... especially so early on, you're just screwing yourself over. I want Jenn to gain some more self-awareness through this experience. She'll either be a pre-merge boot or the goat of the season. I REALLY WANT HER TO PROVE ME WRONG AND UP HER SOCIAL GAME IMMEDIATELY.
Mike - I haven't seen him play but he mentioned that he usually plays a more aggressive game in the past and he's trying to be more under the radar this time. If he plays his cards, right, I can see him going really far in this game. In fact, he's one of my picks to win. He's smart, calculated, and seems to be focused on breaking up the OG Krio tribe. He's sitting in a great spot right now.
Chris - He seems funny, but I don't know much about him. I need to see a more recent confessional to have a better idea.. but he seems to be closest with Kate and Mike which I think is good for his game to make it to the merge, as I don't see him as a target anytime soon.
Jeff - I don't really have an opinion of Jeff since I haven't seen a confessional from him, but he doesn't seem to be on anyone's radar, and he knows about Shon's idol. I don't know what he's doing with this information but I hope he's being smart about it. I see him making it to the merge.
Shon - SHON SHON SHON SHON SHON!!! WTF?! Did you not learn anything from the last season of survivor? Never EVER tell people about your idol. Damn. It's a shame because I think you're a good social player, but your biggest downfall is your big mouth. It's one thing to tell your closest Ally, Jeff, but why would you go and tell Jessica about it?! The worst part is that you KNOW it's a mistake. I don't see Shon making it far into the game unless he starts to be a little more tight-lipped with his information.
Krio -
Holli & Kate (because they both haven't posted confessionals) - Not sure about either of them until I see a confessional... but I love strong females, and their past relationships seem to be working in their favor right now. People want to work with them. I'll edit this post once I have a better idea of what they're thinking.
Ryan - Ryan still seems to be loyal to the bro tribe, but appears to be really close with Kate and Holli. He should be careful though because Sam is onto him. He seems to like the idea of a 4 person alliance between him, Michael, Holli, and Kate. He's pretty quiet and brief in his confessionals, so we'll have to see, but I don't see him getting voted out anytime soon.
Sam - Sam is feeling swap fucked due to all of the Denver relationships that have been formed with his tribe mates. I don't think this means this is the end of the road for Sam if he plays his social game right. I hope he uses his knowledge about Michael's idol to his advantage. He may need to if they lose the next challenge.
Jessica - I haven't seen a confessional from her yet, but she knows Shon's idol and thanks to Riley, knows about Michael's idol. So she's playing a good game, if people are willing to trust her with this information. I see her making it far into the merge.
Michael - Brady is a character and never fails to deliver awesome confessionals. He wants to stick with the bro tribe (especially Riley and Sam), and also seems to like Jessica. If he can loop in Jessica, then he'd probably have Holli too. I'm not sure how Brady will do long term.. but I hope he makes it to the merge because I just think he'll be super entertaining to watch as a viewer.
Riley - Riley said he likes Jess and Kate. Might be a flipper? I guess Riley isn't as close with Michael as I thought if he's willing to spill to Jessica that Michael has an idol. I'm guessing he's doing this to gain Jessica's trust. If their tribe were to lose, I would see them targeting Michael and Sam over him. So flipping might work out for him.

Chris and Jeff both posted updates for this round and I stan them both
So now that I've heard from everyone idk wtf is truly going to happen. It seems like everyone has their faves:
Chris likes Sarena and Blake the most, but dislikes Adam Jeff likes Jenn Shon dislikes Adam, but wants Blake out because he doesn't think his side would go to rocks for him Mike G wants to use Jenn to get Sarena out
like I don't see the other four (Chris, Shon, Jeff, and Mike G) agreeing on a target. Like I don't think Mike G's Sarena plan is going to work because Chris called with Sarena for four hours and seems to be on her side for the "anti Jenn" train. However, Jeff said he thinks Jenn's OG tribe takes her for granted and calls her a sweetheart. What I could possibly see happening is Chris going with Blake, Sarena, and Adam....IF Adam wasn't included so idk. And then Jenn might go with Shon, Mike G, and Jeff. That's the only "solid" four I could possibly see right now? Whenever this tribe finally goes to Tribal, shit will hit the fan. I don't even know how tf I'm gonna edgic this tribe lolololol

Once again, I didn't proofread so I'm sorry.
Krio
This is a very different vibe from the other tribe just because pre existing relationships are playing a huge factor in it.
Kate- I think she’s arguably in the best spot on this tribe. Kate’s social, plain and simple. I’ve played a few minis with her, she goes to meetups, she’s just a very active member within the community and she knows people. Her Denver/past game relationship with Ryan is definitely helping her and she’s met Holli twice so I don’t see her going anywhere. She has the idol and is the only person smart enough to keep it to herself. I’m not 100% sure what the idol retrieving system was, but it there wasn’t a public element to it, why would you broadcast that you have it? It’s refreshing seeing her keeping it to herself. I dabbled into some of her past confessionals and she’s woke on Chris possibly being shady too so she has a good read on things across the board so far. I think we’re going to see big things come from her.
Michael- I’m shook that he’s somewhat on the bottom tier of this tribe pecking order wise? I love his and Sam’s alliance and the fact that he has his back 100%. I think he has the right idea wanting to keep his idol in the game as long as possible along with same, but NUMEROUS people know about it now (Jess, Kate, etc) so it’s lost its power a bit. He mentioned feeling that Riley is shady (and I got the same vibe) but turns out, Riley wants to still work with Michael and Sam which is gonna be messy bc Michael plans to possibly throw Riley under the bus I’m just hoping this all doesn’t blow up in his face and somehow Sam pays for it. Fingers crossed for them both.
Sam- I feel so bad for him. I know he said he doesn’t like the word “swapfucked” but he truly is. That and just past org relationships/meetups in general. A lot of his tribe isn’t willing to go out of their comfort zone/they're into different things than him. Sam is smart af and I know he won’t give up. I don’t wanna count him out just yet.
Jessica- She just seems extremely social and people tell her things (partially bc she knew Riley beforehand).
Riley- Absolutely shocked that he wants to stay with Michael and Sam. I know he wanted to pull Jess in with the three of them, but I don’t see it happening. Hopefully he shocks me.
Holli- She mentioned how her, Jess, and Kate all have a girls chat and I truly think it could do some damage. She doesn’t wanna vote Ryan and wants Sam out, but Riley who is close to Jess (who is with the girls) is tight with Brady/Sam so I don’t think he’d do that. However, all the girls need is to pull Ryan in and boom, they have majority. I almost can somewhat see Holli leaving just because she seems the least connected besides Sam? Idk, hard to say. She seems like she can weasel her way out of stuff though so that’s definitely something to watch out for.
Ryan- Seems somewhat clueless, but his past connections seem to be helping him. I’m hoping he doesn’t want to vote out Sam, but I doubt it. I’m hoping Mike can sway him into keeping Sam safe since he apparently has a "F2" with Michael Brady.
Either way we’re in for an interesting vote, I just wish past connections weren’t so prevalent with this tribe.
