I'm here for Kohga to convince one of them to tie the vote and cause a tiebreaker challenge.

The only way Mipha or Revali has a chance is if Kohga and Urbosa are both at FTC splitting votes

The only talk there ever was of booting her (post-return) was because she was too much of a goat to let near the end because she'd have an FTC spot locked in. At least, as far as I saw.
I think there's a chance Revali ties it to try to get something on his resume. We spoke a little as I was going out about how he needed to make a move that he could claim as his; I think he was intending that to be booting Urbo but that's not a possibility now. It's a slim chance but I live in hope

I'm jokingly being hard on Revali and also critiquing his strategy of disappearing for 90% of the game with excuses and then coming back and putting in minimal effort. We're gonna get Urbosa/Revali/Mipha F3 and I'm going to absolutely fucking hate it because none of them deserve to win, really, but if they get there, they're our options. I dunno, after thinking through that F5 vote, I don't get how Urbosa is undeserving. She took a big risk not playing her idol in order to get someone out that she needed out. If she didn't know how the votes were going to fall, she definitely could have gone, so isn't it a testament to her knowledge and influence that she could safely take that risk? I don't disagree that it's less than satisfying as a result, but she's clearly deserving imho. :Insert me gesturing wildly at the board that says SURVIVOR IS A SOCIAL GAME repeatedly: Everyone knew she had an idol, she was untargetable because of that. I don't particularly think "Hey, I have a giant bag of tricks, you have to work with me" is a social game, nor is "I'm immune and have power because of that". She knew where everything was going because she had all the items. Also, like, Mipha being a dumbass and telling Urbosa every single plan the entire game, I dunno, props to Urbosa for successfully turning Mipha into a proper goat, I guess. That's the one bit of social game from Urbosa that I can respect wholeheartedly. Speaking of which... Kohga never played his idol. Pretty impressive IMO to hold onto it the entire game and never play it? Unless he just didn't have it, but that seems unlikely, because if Revali had one, he would've played it right there. If they just boot Kohga here (which is the smartest move for Urbosa) then this is just Urbosa's game to lose at FTC (which, she can absolutely do if she doesn't own her game and is cocky at all). If Revali or Mipha try to make it a tie, then I guess that's a good play, because if it's like Kohga vs Revali and Kohga wins, Mipha's best chance is at Kohga/Urbosa splitting votes and sneaking past with some returnee loyalty votes in her favor.

It's funny though. If I hadn't gone out, the game would've likely resolved the same way, except I'd be there instead of Revali, which would be better for Mipha's game.

:Insert me gesturing wildly at the board that says SURVIVOR IS A SOCIAL GAME repeatedly: :Insert me gesturing wildly at the signup post that says THIS IS A BASTARD GAME repeatedly: I'm completely with you in seeing the nature of Survivor as fundamentally social, but if I saw a Survivor season with this structure and these twists I probably wouldn't even watch because it's such an extreme departure from the fundamentals of what Survivor on CBS is. The social nature of the game is still there because we're still voting for the winner, but I just don't want to hold the bastardized nature of the rest of the game against anyone who happened to benefit from it.

You would have won almost unanimously, I doubt that would have been better for any of their games. I'm fairly sure Kohga would have too. Going against Urbosa is legitimately the best F3 Mipha and Revali could get after I was eliminated don't you think?

At the f5 vote there was some madness towards the end. I knew epona was voting revali. Revali said urbo was playing a superidol or something and I was like wtf is a superidol. I also thought epona was going to be double halfidoled until towards the end. I briefly considered idoling epona, but ultimately I just decided, since I had the necklace, to just say I don't know what's happening so I'm just going to vote the person I want out (urbosa).
On the subject of the puzzle, I tried my fucking heart out. I also figured out how urbosa has been exploiting the puzzles. Unfortunately i was sick the evening i might have stayed up all night and had to sleep. No idea if i could've beaten her had i stayed up, but i got a 5:08 while running a fever which seemed pretty good lol
This last round I made my case against revali, relying heavily on those receipts you sent me about him epona, and they both seemed to actually consider it where they'd come in locked against me but it just wasn't enough. Mipha thinks revali is a complete zero at ftc.

I also really wanted to idol mipha but I was afraid urbosa would play enough idols to make everyone immune, cancel my necklace and get me out in the do-over. Mipha really impressed me by reaching out and making up with me so effectively I ended up trusting her the most.
I'm lukewarm on all three of them as possible winners and will decide at ftc.

I got the impression here that Revali is in fact a complete FTC dud, but idk

What's the puzzle trick? Inquiring minds with sore hands want to know

I'd also like to know since it took me like 8 hours to get within spitting distance of Urbosa.
