perhaps. i think several winners have been able to do it by just being cutthroat but it does seem recent meta has favored likable winners.

maybe the change in format here will revert to a less likable winner
Shockingly, being likable helps you win. Who'd have thought!

On the show the relationships are really real and it's person-to-person, so a Hantzian beatdown of "look at all this trickery I did, you idiots" isn't going to do well most of the time.
See: Chris Daugherty bullshitting his FTC super fucking hard while getting Twila to be honest.

Also I was kind of hoping for a different FIC this time around, but at the same time I feel like this FIC is aesthetically perfect for this game so yeah.

codes ruined it and trivialised every vote right?
I mean yeah? To an extent.

I don't think that the votes splitting is even relevant to the issue with codes that I personally had.

My problem is the game became an exciting game of Survivor: Cryptobreakers instead of Survivor: Medevac, which is kinda the whole point. The point was to stop private communication and codes kinda flew in the face of that.

I would also say that the "correct" way to go about playing Medevac is going to be more akin to mid-Survivor alliance phases where you make and keep an alliance and there is only maybe 1-2 flips on the majority alliance per game, but people are still playing very fast and loose and dangerously with the format because it hasn't taken hold yet or they haven't figured out how to keep people together.

I love this format to death and wish it would become the norm, but until it does, I'm fine watching the PM meta try to react to and blend with the Medevac meta.

That's basically what happened with the Cyd-John-Penner-Julia alliance and they were quite successful. The only thing that stopped them was an immunity run. Always the alliance killer. :(

How many consecutive games will cannibalism be a topic discussed?
