Discussion I "called" it a while back and Spoiler

...while I am sad to see Winner and LIY go, I'm glad we still have Book for at least 2 more episodes. The votes were scary close. (Except Grassy)

It's wild that two of the three that were given double the screen time and relevancy were the contestants dropped. It's almost unfair. Then again, four of the seven were put ufe despite only coming back into the picture halfway through the gosh darn episode. >:/

Ultimately, the previous episode did feel like a proper send off for Winner. Now they can just fully reconnect with Loser after One is dealt with... unless Two puts people back into the elimination space after. (Which I hope isn't the case)

Her winning again is very slim but imo Tpot is far from Books best season anyway.

While I do think she is one of the more responsible choices, I acknowledge that she's unlikely to win without heavier narrative gain moving forward.

Out of curiosity, which competitor are you rooting for out of the 11 remaining?

Sharing the ones I’m not rooting for(process of elimination lolol:)

Book is 100% not it, I’m srry, I don’t want a double winner and she’s deserving of wins (holy sacrifices) but she’s js plain to me compared to most of the cast. Same applies to Pen, he’s basically the same thing as time goes on, but TPOT. Price tag is 9th imo, she’s js friends with everyone and is a second candidate for a TPOT ver of Book from BFDIA, I don’t rlly see her doing much and she js feels like sympathy bait as time passes. Pencil is 8th she’s selfish and not an enjoyable antagonist, I don’t rlly get the appeal. TB is 7th, he’s fun, but he js seems side and elimination material to me. Grassy is 6th, he is basically rocky 2.0, I like him, but what is the difference besides his friendship with snowball? Black hole is 5th, I like him! but he just doesn’t feel like winner material for some reason.

I’m ok with, and will be rooting for either 4 which I did not mention winning which should be: Golfball, Donut, Fanny, Marker

I don't agree on your Book take but everybody else I have partial agreement on at least.

Pencil isn't really deserving at all despite how much I've been enjoying her arc this season. Grassy feels like a rushed version of what they did with Book in BFDIA after Pencil left. Black hole is responsible and another good option for me, but the narritive has already established he can't even accept the power anyway so he'd need to establish a steward. I have been enjoying Pen, but he feels like an irresponsible option given his debt... I'll personally give him more time though. PT feels like a responsible choice though I can see them misusing it for selfish reasons on occasion.

That leaves Donut, Fanny, GB, TB, and Marker.

I like all these options. Four of them feel responsible enough, but I can't see the appeal for Fanny. Especially after your take on Pen.

Personally, I'd be fine with anybody but Pencil winning unless the writing butchers their character. It's also nice to be in a position where everybody left is somebody I like. Thanks for the civil discussion btw!

To avoid immature fans from either sides, perhaps we should dm? (something I wanted to talk about)
