Ken really, truly embodies the second chance motif, and he's improved a lot since Greece. This may be a personal thing, but he's probably the only player on that list who I'm excited to see play potentially differently than last time and drastically improve. And at this point, we'd have no way of knowing whether or not All-Stars would be out of his league.

I don't know much about most of the rest, so I'll stay quiet on that. But since this thread should be hidden, I'll say that...

I do tend to agree with Brenda that I don't see how Jolanda is bringing anything new to the table this year. I like her and all (and I'm sure the new admins are gonna hate me for saying this) but her schtick is consistent and pretty droll. Based on the fact that she's here in the first place, I don't really see that changing now because of the circumstances that have arisen (as there are many other solutions here to address a situation that doesn't really involve her at all), but just to speak my peace.

I don't hate you for saying that. I like Jo as a person, but as a character, there was nothing really exciting about her game. She made and alliance, stuck with it, and basically told everyone else who her alliance was and that she would not work with anyone but them.

Honestly on a personal level I like Jensa but I would cut Parvati from this : / She's already had three chances. Also from my past experiences the person who is playing Mikey B. goes inactive.

No.

We write separate summaries for Lurkers as well as summaries for GTFO/Public forums. Nothing we do here can be released until the game is over to protect the integrity of the game.

I know that we're only primarily bloggers but are we allowed to ask the players our own questions in their confessionals too?

I'm not even reading em yet. It's the night #1 rush, it'll slow down later.

I find a good tactic is to read a thread at a time. Like - find the Jolanda/Erica back and forth and read them from start to a stopping point. Then Jolanda/Fabio's set or w/e.

To set a good marker for a stopping point, send yourself a PM and it will stick out in the list. We'll do that after each TC to mark end of episode but if you need extras, do it.

No? You're following the steps right, right? Screenshot your problem and I'll try figure it out, but Jeff is the pro here., I may have stuffed up putting you in the wrong group or something. :/

I just saw your stopping point Brenda. Fabulous idea. Also.... how do you read "threads"? All I see is all the individual PMs and they keep coming in by the second.

I see what I did. I had you in administrators, but also still in the newly registered & validating groups. You should be sorted now?

Well :/ it's not like a thread-thread, I'm just using that as a word. Open each page of PMs in a different tab (otherwise you might miss some as they shift with new ones), then manually open each one you want to look at, ykwim?

Close all those ones, open the next set etcetc.
