A great episode to come back too. On one hand, I was happy to see Crystal and GC make their big move, but if they were thinking smart, they would have removed Dan (actually an even smarter move would have been to remove Paloma otherwise she'll slide by a few rounds, whereas Dan will keep recieving votes for being a target) Otherwise it was a good episode, and I was really happy that everyone had some strategic insight this episode.

I really liked how you made Randy not some ultra negative character with his tiny heart too small speech.

9.5- that strategic blunder by Crystal and GC, although possibly the fatal flaw that costs them the game, made it not a 10 (although I realize its realistic that not everyone can make big moves, and some players have to be dumb...otherwise it wouldn't be interesting)

Ace, why didn't you play an idol after suspecting that GC might flip?

(A) Which castaway will be the Sole Survivor?
Randy... (I seriously believe Charlie, but I want Randy to win now)
(B) Who do you NOT want to see as the Sole Survivor?
Ken, Dan, Paloma, Charlie, GC, Jacquie (So I guess that leaves only Crystal and Randy)

Ace - OTTN3: Ace was the standard villain set up for a fall. He was too confident in his plans and got his comeuppance.

Charlie - CP3: Invisibility until pretribal scheming, but he made his mark making the plan to blindside Ace.

Crystal - CP4: She was the swing vote, and is shown as the leader of the GC/Crystal pairing. She recognized how she had to act and did so. My favorite character along with Randy.

Dan- MORP4: He didn't have enough insight to be CP, and was verging on OTT with his comments on Exile. Also, I found it odd that Charlie pointed out Dan making a blunder when returning from tribal and immediately admitting that he didn't have an idol. Although Ace got his fall, Dan's fatal flaw will definetly be his honesty/innocence

G.C. - CPP5: This episode was all about GC, but for some reason I was put off by it. I think you intended for me to be positive, but his whole tribe recognized he would flip, and I'm still not sure why he took Jacquie- only why he didn't take Crystal. Crystal also got a lot of the talk about flipping, whereas GC did not.

Ken - MOR2: Not a lot of speaking but he was everywhere. He's the player to add comments and aid other players. A nice minor auxilliary character for Randy (and formerly Ace)

Paloma - MOR2: Maybe UTR, but she had some major insight on the vote at the end that stuck in my mind. Still, she's got no chance of winning, so it doesn't particularily matter.

Randy - CPM4: He was the same old negative Randy, and the Negavitity dominated, but he had one endearing scene that comepletely humanized him. He's here to win the money, but he can't be described as totally negative.

Great episode! To me it always makes the episode good if the boot is somebody who's in the game just so that the audience would see him/her lose ( pretty much like Coach right now in real Tocantins ). But more than that, you managed to create great suspense IMO when in the TC you'd know exactly the plan and just wait to see whether it worked or not. I liked it a lot.

Well, I can only go with Dan now, though I'd like to see some weird redemption for Randy so that he could win.

Ace - OTTN4 ( The clear villain, I was only wondering whether CPNN would be better but maybe not )

Crystal - MORM4 ( I could see CP, but IMO there were some slight OTT elements to make her rather CP+OTT=MOR. Could see CP though. About the tone then, I see the N in the beginning, but while the episode got closer to it's ending you were supposed to feel strongly for the "good" side, and Crystal was part of them. I'd say M by association, but N is fine too. )

G.C. - CPP5 ( He came up very positive throughout, even though it wasn't all the time intentional. Either P or neut )

Jacquie - UTRP3 ( Seems like a weird rating, but since she had no part in the actual story except in the beginning I think UTR is better than MOR. Also, the beginning was strongly P for her )

Randy - CPN4 ( Intention was probably CPM, since he had that one scene in the beginning, but IMO it was clearly outshadowed by the later arrogance )

An amazing amount of GCrystal ownage!

But seriously, there was a bit where someone (Dan or Charlie?) said that, even with G.C., they wouldn't have enough to split the vote. Couldn't they split it 3-3, say, sending 3 to Ace and 3 to Randy? If Ace played an idol, there would be a revote between Dan and Randy. Randy would then be voted out 5-2 in the revote. If Ace didn't play it, there would be a revote between Ace, Dan, and Randy (I assume, I don't know if there's ever been a three-way tie in the show). Ken would be the only villian with a vote, so 3 votes would go to Ace, and 2 to Randy, and Ken's useless vote would go to Dan. Ace would then presumably play an idol, and Randy would be voted out. Not ideal, but the villians would still be down one player and one idol, and it would be better than Ace playing the idol in a 6-3 vote, making Dan leave. Or were G.C. and Crystal wanting Ace and only Ace to leave, and would prefer Dan over Randy?

EDIT:
I totally managed to ignore that there's no way in that scenario that Ace gets voted out. I guess it doesn't make much sense.

What was your overall favorite part of the episode?

GCrystal ascends to the heavens and leaves the game

-->This episode was worth the wait. :D I really think that Crystal & GC were not wise to side with Kota this TC, but I think this will be Tocantins-esque where they'll pull a Kota over and vote out Dan/Charlie for being a threat (most likely Jacquie). If so, then good for them. If not, then I really think they've screwed themselves over. The Reward & Immunity Challenges were fun also. The IC, I've seen somewhere before, but the RC was somewhat unique & I loved the feel.

-->The Tribal Council reactions. So fun. Ace getting his comeuppance was felt SO good.

-->9.1

-->Does Ace really plan to stop talking to everyone in the Final 9 except for Ken/Randy?

Once again, thanks for sending & I can't do edgic, so sorry for not filling that up.

-Glad to see a longer then usual recap and the theme song mostly cut out, that's what this episode needed given how long it's been since the last one was posted.

-Hmm, pecking order challenge, this could be interesting.
-Wow, GC doesn't take Crystal on the reward with him.

-This is a heavily Fang focused episode so far
-Ace is sure getting arrogant, all the overconfident stuff he said before the IC kind of implies he may go home this episode

-So Dan's group is gonna try to take out Ace, interesting though that Ace said he might just use an idol if something feels 'off'

-Ok about to read TC, I think Ace gets the most votes, but uses a HII to save himself and oust Dan

As for your question about where to host the stories, you could try photobucket for your images if you don't already. I haven't used it in a while now, but it's what I used to host all of my edgic images. For the story documents though, I don't know, since I never made my own website. I've had a teacher in a website class reccommend GoDaddy if you're willing to pay for the website, but since you're probably looking for a good free site that probably won't help you much.

Maybe it's the long gap there was between the two episodes, but it seemed a bit hard to get into the episode for some reason for me, and I realized after thinking for several minutes about the episode that I had no idea what to put down for my favorite part of the episode. I will admit though, the outcome was disappointing to lose Ace. I will say though, even though it was kind of hard get into the episode, it wasn't as bad as some other episodes that were really boring for reasons like the outcome being dead obvious (like the F5 of Fiji).

(B) What was your overall favorite part of the episode?
I didn't really have one

(C) What would you rate this episode out of 10? (1 being the lowest; 10 being the highest)
5/10

Charlie - MORP3

Dan - CP(MOR?)P4

Randy - CPN4
