With Jet developing his thoughts on the bullet and elimination, I think I want to add my autistic two cents to this.

I think this constant drive to "democratise" eliminations is hurting the show. Democratise by giving fish control over eliminations, the longhouse develops. Democratise by giving the audience control, you end up with simp-armour contestants and lots of petty/paypig-driven eliminations. I think it'd be best to have a competent showrunner eliminate based on merit and content. Any "objective" elimination system is prone to being gamed (and I don't blame anybody who's trying to game it), but in pursuit of an entertaining show, decisions should be made solely based on what benefits the show both in the short term and long term. And, for what it's worth, the wiggers have done a decent job with this season so far.

I agree completely that the democratization/bullet system is a problem, for exactly the reasons you said. At the same time, I don't think the answer is to remove any objectivity, though. Just make eliminations/challenges encourage the behavior that's good for the show. If you give a challenge to defend a piggy bank, for example, people will simply defend the piggy bank. They could have had the same challenge, but instead of being rewarded only with the money in your own bank, you're rewarded with all the money you collect in your own bank by breaking other banks. Instead of protect the tree, most leaves collected wins, letting your tree get snapped removes you from the competition. Let audience polls/stox be the actual elimination: if someone's low on stox because they're a villain, they should have no problem stealing leaves/breaking banks to save themselves.
 
That Bashir vs Vicky scene actually made me giggle.
"Im a fucking psychopath.."
"You dont know anything about Islam"

Bashir is the first A tier fish in a long time. He has self awareness, but just enough humility to let himself be apart of the joke without trying to do it in an "ironic le giggles" way that most fish end up doing.
 
Did anyone else have BBPD (Beth Borderline Personality Disorder) crash out within her first full day?

I’m still not over Robo Indian Antara poling everyone about who has stayed the hardest while normie James Drake does the first scene of Apocalypse Now for no reason in a barricaded room

Ik the show is changing general direction this season, but I really love it. If they had spent more money on things & not Bam it would only be better
 
BETH FAT

They threw her out. No idea if it counts yet:


She got a dance challenge immediately after coming back inside. Look at JDrake's and Ben's faces:
