No way he's mixed. Somebody with 31% NN by voters is NO way mixed, unless there was also 31% PP or something too.

Ben NN 31% N 25% M 37%
In the great tradition of: if you have one foot in a fire, and one foot in a block of ice, then you must be comfortable``, then N seems the best consensus choice. And then we can move on to finally resolving how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. |

Except the problem is that many people gave him an N just for being Coach and an NN for getting so much screentime and stuff, which equals an OTT, not an NN.

I think the NN votes were just people who've dismissed Coach as some jerkass lunatic and dismissed any possible P moments for him as just OTT. We're
looking at his EDIT, and they manipulated it to give him P moments. maybe if we got his transcript of those 3 days without any fancy editing stuff like
sympathetic music, we'd all vote N. But they, in a quite obvious way, manipulated Coach to not be so N like in most of his other episodes.
I think this was Coach's most P episode. He has to be M since he's obviously not P because there were N moments for him. |

It's only a "mocking edit" because you want it to be a mocking edit. He had sympathetic music and we were supposed to rooting for your precious shamrock to go home over him. |

They mocked him pretty relentlessly all season. Did that really change in the final episode? It didn't seem like it to me, and I definitely wasn't a
shamrock.

Still, it was a slight redemption edit to make him M rather than N or especially not the ridiculous NN.

A "slight redemption edit" offsets the rest of the N Coach received in his boot ep ? Ahhhhh ..... NOPE !!
And anyone who thinks there was NOT rejoicing by almost every Survivor viewer when Coach got booted should give their heads a shake. |

That's fine if that was the reaction, Oo, but that would be from all the prior negative editting Coach got during the season. For his BOOT EPISODE, he was
not editted as entirely negative. He was editted as sympathetic, with the decoy boot getting negative SPV for trashing him.

I don't know where you're getting this "sympathetic" edit stuff from. Just the music ?
Another N I remember is Coach begging JT (before the RC) not to send him to exile (ie: send one of the females). JT even had a blast for Coach in a confessional for trying to avoid taking his turn at exile. All of the Ns I've listed more than offset any "sympathetic" edit. |

The difference between M and NN is so harsh. We should just allow the choice of N too, like we did with Tyson and the M in episode 1.

2 cents...
the reason i voted Mixed for Coach was for two reasons.... 1. his tone was all over the map. 2. I left the episode feeling like it was up to the audience to decide if it was good bad ugly or something else. no matter how i sliced it, still came up as mixed for me. AND I haven't forgotten about the final episode stats... i have been swamped recently... a couple of big projects wrapping up at the same time, and a whopping series of migraines that has pretty much taken any remaining energy... i'll touch base again in the next day or 2 to set a final time. thanks. |

Should we really factor in opinions of fans of Erinn the anti-Coach?

Whuttt ????
Erinn's "opinions" of Coach is backed up by Taj AND Probst. Why wouldn't they be included ? |

Oops, phrase error, I meant to say Erinn fans.
I do that sometimes (leave a whole word out) |

Coach prattling on and on during the episode, receiving multiple eyerolls from P character Taj = N for Coach.Taj wasn't P this episode. Episode Tone Averages |

I meant "P character Taj" as Taj being positive overall this season.
And can you restate your inquiry, correcting the errors, cause it still doesn't make sense. |
