So, there are a lot of people and some of them, I would just say, "I hope they do ok" so I am going to focus on the people I want to see do well... and some who are on the bottom of my list of people I want to see succeed.
The Bottom
Constance - She is trying to hard. She is commenting on everyone's meet me videos, trying to build friendships. Even though that is a nice thing to do, I think because she did it to everyone, she is going to come off as fake and trying to hard... she already has a reputation and I don't think she is going to change that. She wants to be tough and bossy but I really don't think she has it in her.. I have only known her for a few months but I am not impressed... hoping she joins the #FirstBootClub
Hassan - As much as I want to see him do well... I think he is in trouble unless people decide to pick him up as a #. He, like Constance has a reputation and it isn't a good one. He doesn't know how to be serious, he is constantly fighting with someone and doesn't care that people call him an asshole... as long as he gets the attention! I'll edit this later so I don't get ASSASSINED! Is that even a word? That meet me video was a little in your face, challenging, for someone who is essentially a nobody...
Mikey and Carina - I don't have anything against them... I am just curious to see who will be willing to work with them and if age will be a factor. I know it is the summer but will they be able to hang for the midnight - 2 am skype calls that bond people in the beginning? Miss one conversation and they will end up on the outs. I want to see them do well though!
The Good
Trevor - When Trevor came back, I was pumped. He was back in my era... and has become one of my best friends in the ORG community. I enjoyed watching him play in Venezuela and I want to see him do well in this game! Yes -- I picked him as one of my favorites because he is my friend... saw that whole chat.
Jo - If you don't like Jo, don't talk to me. There is literally no reason to not vote for Jo. I think Trevor will do better than Jo this season but I want to see her do well. Hopefully she ends up on a tribe that can help her game and doesn't put it behind the 8 ball.
Dirty D - Its ya boy! This guy grew on me in Jordan and then he was gone. Looking forward to watching him play. He is aggressive, in your face and does well in challenges. I hope this second chance works out well for him because I don't think I can put up with Carlos crying when he loses.
In Trouble
Tierra - I think if these people are smart, they would get rid of Tierra early. I personally like Tierra, so I wouldn't do it. I just think she is very likable and she just won Legacy, or whatever that game is called. She is a pure threat to win this game... I think her saving grace is that Davis is here and he will be more in the spotlight than she will be since he is more outspoken then Tierra.

Ok. Clearly I am behind once again. But trying to keep up with everything. Ok lets get to the chase.. Blood vs Water will be the season that will never forget. I can feel lots of drama. These players are fantastic.. The players that I am going for in this season are Constance, Mike, Carina, Hassan, Tierra and list goes on.. trying to remember the names in my memory. Lol. So anyways, Hoping this season goes super well due to its a blood vs water season. Very exciting.. That's all I say right now til next time.. well anyways cheers.  |

So excited to see Blood vs Water get underway!!
I am hoping we don't see a pre-made dominated game. People are coming in from other ORGs, coming in with their loved ones, and with past iS castmates.
Constance and Maranda, can they mend what happened in Russia? I see Maranda winning this battle. Constance is also in trouble with O'Henry over Legacy.
Chris and Arielle OMG Yes final 2 right here. She is so cute! I see Chris all over her face. In the best way.
Tierra, Dirty D, Hassan and Hassan's homeboy, obvious starting alliance.
Tierra, Scarola, O'Henry, Constance, and Shane all just finished Legacy together, with Scarola as the host. This is nearly half the cast once you count in their loved ones. It's the Legacy rematch.
Tierra and Chris also have Tibet connection, and they've bonded post game over Wine and Backstreet Boys.
Dan and Hassan both final 4 in HLC's game right now.
It's going to be hard for the newbies to break in, but maybe they'll have that advantage of not being attached? If you want to target Tierra, who are you going to talk to? If you know all her connections, you'll need to get on board with the Carinas and Arielles of the game in order to get the job done.
I would just hate to see fresh faces go early and a final 3 of yawn, yawn, yawn.

I personally came in rooting for Constance but Jennifer as her sister really rubbed me the wrong way. I do not fully understand their situation but I have been put into a similar situation as a sibling myself. I hoping Jennifer can realize why ORGS are so important to her sibling by playing and joining the community Constance fell in love with.
I hope Davis dials his game down a few turns. He could possibly get into trouble if he comes out of the gate playing to hard.
Dan and Maranda I can see working their previous relationships and alligning or fighting with Mary Beth and Patrick. After all, Patrick did meet them in real life.
I haven't played games with Trevor in a long time but I can see him either going really far or playing to hard from the start. I am not sure which he will do.

Side note: I'm not judging Jennifer at all, but I hate that she kept calling Constance her brother in her "Meet Me" video due to the fact that Constance identifies as a girl. Did this annoy anyone else? It seems as though Constance's gender identity has been a topic of confusion for a while now for some people, myself included (not that it's necessarily any of mine or anyone else's business). I've never really gotten the impression that Constance fully identifies 100% as female as much as maybe she's gender fluid; as such, maybe that's not a thing she discusses with her sister, or maybe she and her sister have a certain understanding. So, it didn't annoy me. I am hoping this game helps Jennifer gain a better understanding of Constance. I personally understand Jennifer's side of things and it is sometimes hard to accept change. |

I'm gonna start with my fantasy picks:
Dan - I really don't know whether he will sail through the game - he might get frustrated and wear his feelings on his sleeve which could put a target on his back. I think he could be a bit of a challenge beast too
Tierra - love her so much, she's proved she's a great player - and hopefully she can have another great game
Davis - top bloke and has what it takes to win, he has a good sense of humour and will be heaps valuable to the tribe especially during the early rounds
Adam H - this guy is hilarious, I really hope people will understand his humour and realise that he is sarcastic and not insulting them. Can't wait to watch him play

Hi there Alumni!!
Excited to watch this season. Just a few quick notes on my assessment so far...
Early boot? ADAM HASSAN!!! I think he can be pretty volatile. Just from interacting with him on Skype after Jordan, I know he is a loose cannon and I expect him to get the "Carlos" style reception, but not make it to f7. Pre merge boot is my prediction. He is a ton of fun when he's in a good mood, but I'm just worried about how he'll be perceived.
I think Tierra is going to have a tough time playing with dD. I also think Constance is going to have a very hard game. Knowing her from other Orgs, I know sometimes the heat can get to her. I just hope she can keep a level head and be a true badass.
People I expect to go far: O'Henry and Scarola. They are definitely two of my favorites right now and I'm excited to see them play.
Also excited about Arielle. She seems like a sweetie.
Looking forward to things getting started!!!

Lol okay here we go... just some frist impressions/predictions
O'Henry: I'm not sure about him... on one side i feel like he is going to try harder after he said he didnt make any alliances the first time.. but his hate towards the others could get him in trouble.. i would have to wait and see how he actually acts while in the game.
Ty: He seems more likeable than O'Henry and I think people in the game could like him but I think he could also get annoying but for now i would see him getting further than O'Henry
Mary Beth: She seems pretty unmotivated.. almost bored.. I hope she really puts her all into this game because if not I feel like she will go down or she will be so forgetable that she makes it far and people drag her to the end.
Scarola: I feel like he could get far because he has a lot of experience and knows some of the people and know how they play. (e.g. Tierra)
Joanne: She seems really nice and could go far. I think she will do everything to make it as far as possible. She got the Tatoo so she seems at least to do a lot to get further and i feel like she is also a good social player.
Trevor: I feel like he will play hard to redeem himself and I think he could win. He seems like a likebale person and so far Joanne and Trevor are my favourite pair.
Rosie: The fact that she doesnt know Survivor could either get her far because people think she is easy to beat and they will keep her or she will be out early because she will do some stupid mistakes. She should really watch a season before she starts playing.
Andrew: I like the fact he says he want to play logically and if he can do that then he can go far. He also seems likable and could be a good social player.
Arielle: Not a fan for some reason.. I just dont see the potential yet.. maybe that will change
Chris: I likethe fact that he is there to have fun and meet new people.. but I think he will play the game and I think he cant be underestimated.
Constance: I think she can make it further than in her first season but somehow i dont see her winning at all. I feel like people will get annoyed by her sooner or later.
Jennifer: Being related to Constance could be a little disadvantage for her because people may think shes like her. I think she could go far though if her social game is good but we will see that during the first days.
Josh: He seems like someone who knows what he does since he is a super fan. So I expect a lot from him. I feel like people will like him because he seems likeable but I also think he wont be afraid to make some moves.
Eddie: I think he isnt as much of a super fan as his brother but I think maybe he can learn from him and i just somehow think he has a lot of potential.. i dont know why. Cant wait to see what kind of player he will become.
Tierra: Tierra is a very good social player.. she also has already some connections to some of the people and her placings in Legacy and iS: Tibet showed that she makes it far every time. So I think she can do it again. My only worry is people may be afraid of her because they know how good she did but I think she can play it right and make it to the end again.
David: I hope and think David makes it much further than in Jordan. He is very good at challenges and he is loyal if you are loyal to him. The only problem could be his mouth since he is one of the Twitter Gangstas and he likes talking shit about people
Carina and Mikey: Very young and that could either make or break it for them. I dont see only disadvantages. i think they could use that age difference between them and everyone else to get them further in the game if they do it right.
Sydney: Not a fan.. i dont know what is it but she comes across unlikeable.. at least to me and after seeing this video i have no idea how shes gonna play the game.
Shane: I feel Shane is gonna get further than Sydney.. also not sure how he is gonna play the game but we shall see.
Dan: He said himself that he is not a quiet person and that he will someones best allie or worst enemy so I think he will either be gone very fast or make it far in the game
Maranda: If she really has learned from her mistakes she could go far but im afraid she may get voted out because of Dan if he creates drama and not because of her own faults
LeBlanc: He seems very likeable and I think he will be a good social player.. I just hope he wont et targeted because of Adam.
Adam: I think out of all newbies he has the biggest target on his back because people know him and im afraid they think he is rude and mean when he isnt really. So I hope he plays hard and shows people also a nice side of him and i hope his mouth doesnt get him in trouble.
My top pairs
1. Tierra&David
2. Joanne&Trevor
3. Josh&Eddie
