I think they were all very similar... It is tough to put them in order imo.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

ditto. Nothing to do with bad, either. I just thought it was least like the others he picked.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

That makes it a first pick then

In my opinion every season of Survivor I have watched has usually won by someone who formed a strong pair and used that to control the rest.

They are all pretty similar though.

If I had to take a guess my order would be,
vyk07
fraleyight
loosekanen
sufur
TBobLP
McAvoy

Left myself off as I dont want to be biased.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

TBob > loosekanen > sufur > vyk > Mcavoy > magic > fray

a few reasons why. i generally believe a drafter would go in skeptical and avoid players that overtly mention their specific strategy because it's honestly more likely to be a lie. mets is a super veteran of pog though and i think he will value participation over most anything. so in that vain Tbob's post vaults to the front. the posts i put at the back specifically mention their personal strategies. Mcavoy's is non threatening so i think he'd be picked over the final two.

i'm pretty comfortable with the grouping thinking the 4 at the beginning of my group would have been picked over the 3 at the end. i certainly wouldn't have an issue with any order within those groups though.

and i could be totally off. i think a decent idea would be to assign points based on each player's individual opinion and then add the points and average them.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

Yeah thats what i think too.

Everyone posts their order and then we total them up.

I would remove people from their own lists as their opinion of themselves is not going to be clear.

Also loose I thought the PM was for a team captain, like in werewolf drafts, where that person doesnt play so mentioning your strategy seemed important.

Im always suspicious of people who feel the need to tell people how honest they are as its usually not true. Just my opinion though.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

ahhhhh that makes sense. i'm just gonna stick with my gut instinct though. i'm not gonna be butthurt about how we vote. it's kind of a crap shoot unless someone here has a strong feeling how mets would have drafted. anybody feel like they've played with him enough to have a good read?

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

Im assuming thats some sort of sports person. I have no clue about anything to do with sports so lets hope there are no challenges on that.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

if there is a team sports trivia challenge that would be a challenge suited to my strengths. i imagine someone named metsandfinsfan would also welcome such a challenge.

as long as people step up when they feel they have something to offer we should be fine. i really think participation is going to be half the battle until merge.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

Also as the mod was kind enough to post our "Private" messages, my strategy is obviously pretty clear to everyone on this tribe so no point trying to pretend.

Im thinking Me (obv) and 3 other people need to team up to take down the whole game. The 4 of us can fight it out in the last challenge to see what 3 go to Final Tribal Council.

Obviously during this time we need to keep out tribe strong so we can win the challenges against the other teams.

The Mod hasnt given us the ability to PM eachother yet, but when they do anyone interested in teaming up let me know.

Any prior knowledge of mets is good to add some extra weight to the gut feeling. I think we're on the same page with everyone going with their instinct, weighting them and adding everything up.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

One thing that seems to stand out is everyone has VYK in the top 4 and magic toward the end everything else is kind of all over the place lol.

Re: Team metsandfinsfan - Survivor: PoGStars

Just waiting for 3 (McAvoy, TBobLP, vyk07) to submit their order then we can total them up.

I think this challenge could just come down to luck to be fair. I know when I was a captain playing werewolf a lot of my picks were totally different to where other people had them.
