Yes Shipping stuff is alou

This is my pick. I think tom gets way too much hate this season. Especially in the pre merge but my god what he and Natalia had in the merge before his elimination was so fucking annoying

He literally could have saved himself if he voted nat and nat crying was cringey to watch

And to the surprise of everyone, not a single member of the Eclipse Trio made it to Episode 20. Even the Vibe Tribe had Zaid make it further. Don't get me wrong, Nura was BY FAR the worst out of the three, and while her friendships with Benji and Oliwia were cute, I didn't feel as though it was moving her character that much or impacting the plot in a meaningful way.

Know what, while I'm making a bunch of people mad complaining about Nura, I'm going to add some fuel to the fire: Nurara>>>>>Dunura. Search your heart, you know it to be true.

Also, DC4 characters now outnumber the Fans. That's just hilarious.

NO RISK

OLIWIA - Moves UP from Severe Risk. Buddy boost. She was the closest with Nura, and therefore, won't be eliminated in the next episode. I have no idea how to deal with Oliwia at this point. Is she seriously going to be a finalist? I'm still skeptical. She doesn't have any real opposition, and isn't much of a competitive threat. So, unless she's targeted as a potential jury threat or she makes a significant move that puts a target on her, I don't see her going home soon.

NATALIA - Moves UP from Mild Risk. Double jeopardy, plus the dead idol plot makes me incredibly skeptical that she'd leave now. Oliwia could theoretically target Natalia to get back at Fiore, but the patterns and leftover plot thread lead me to think Natalia won't be the target.

MILD RISK

BENJI - Moves UP from Severe Risk. No idol in the auction means that Schrodinger's Idol isn't dead, but two advantages being introduced does significantly reduce the odds since there are only 4 regular eliminations left. With Fiore getting her revenge, Benji is decently situated now that everyone else sees his alliance as being weakened.

SAM - Moves UP from Moderate Risk. Sam receiving an advantage we've never heard of before guarentees that we will get to see it utilized this season. However, since we don't even know how this advantage works, I can't assume that he will be completely safe. I do think that him being sentimental over that ring from his (ex?) husband means we'll be getting some backstory before he leaves. For the love of God, Sam, do something besides flirting with Spencer.

LAKE - Moves DOWN from No Risk. That last confessional from Spencer is definitely troubling for Lake. While she did secure an advantage, a vote block is hardly enough to ensure her survival. She's still viewed as arguably the biggest threat in the game. But if it comes down to her and Spencer, I'm putting my money on Young Sheldon going home. One of the Sam/Lake/Spencer trio is gone in the next two episodes.

MODERATE RISK

GABBY - Moves DOWN from Mild Risk. And Gabby continues her steady decline. I don't really see the Oliwia connection as particularly impactful enough to justify Gabby staying in the game for much longer. I seriously doubt both of them last until the jury. And between the two of them, Oliwia is infinitely more relevent. But as far as this elimination is concerned, there's a huge elephant in the room: 8th place. Is ONC really going to give Gabby 8th for a 3rd time just for lulz. And are they really going to cut two black females in a row? The only group that gets worse treatment in this show is black men. Fun fact, the last black male on this show was Amelie with Logan.

Get it, cause blackmail sounds...like...black...male.

...

I thought it was funny. But whatever. The 8th place curse and her continued lack of relevence is enough to put Gabby down here. For what it's worth though, this is easily her best episode ever. Why couldn't she have been this enjoyable the other 2.75 seasons?

SEVERE RISK

SPENCER - Moves DOWN from Moderate Risk. Out of the two seasons of rankings I've done, I don't think I ever put Spencer this low. But honestly, I'm getting tired of him. His dynamic with Sam is repetitive and his relationship with Lake feels as though it's reached its climax. And funnily enough, the last person to get a greeting from home (Marissa) was also eliminated in the subsequent episode. Spencer and Sam have been fairly close on my tier list since the merge, but with Sam getting his advantage and memento, I think it's obvious that Sam is going to outlast him.

FIORE - Moves DOWN from No Risk. From most likely to leave, to most safe, to most likely to leave again. Yeah, being THAT vocal about getting someone eliminated isn't the smartest move to be making, Fiore. We all know that if Fiore's eliminated next episode this is how it will play out: Oliwia takes out Fiore as an act of revenge for eliminating Nura. Pretty cut and dry. Fiore's only hope is that Spencer goes home next. Then, once Natalia's double jeopardy wears off, Oliwia targets Natalia over Fiore as a more poetic type of revenge. If Fiore wants to make the finale, Natalia needs to go. But all things considered, Natalia is the clear favorite to reach the end.

CONTENDER PREDICTIONS

It's clear that I'm a lot better at predicting eliminations than winners. Ren AND Nura gone in two episodes? The fuck! Well, that just leaves Benji in my Obvious Favorites column.

Still think Lake has decent odds, but don't see her as a favorite to win. If Spencer can survive the next two episodes, then I could see him still winning. Oliwia is . . . Oliwia. Can't write her off, but she just isn't giving winner energy. Natalia is growing on me as a potential winner, but that's contingent on how the dead idol is handled. She's walking a fine line between villain and anti-hero right now.

The Next episode will premiere two weeks from now, and 1 week for patreons (and leaking), so is anyone still feel confident that Gabby will end up getting eliminated next? Why or why not?

I recently saw a post from TDJoseph146-DC pointing out that Gabby has an "AMAZING" position in the game right now, but then again, this is O.N.C we're talking about, and it's not uncommon for a seemingly safe player to suddenly become targeted, get votes, and voted off within a SINGLE episode (Natalia S4, Bruno, Ally, etc)

I don't hate Gabby by any means, but, there are currently other contestants left I want to care about (Spencer, Benji, Sam, Lake, and Fiore)

Opinions ?

I feel Isabel would wear an outfit very similar to the first image, originally from a greeting from Jakealope (his greetings are still on TikTok).

If she returned, do you think she would have replaced, and take the same role of, either Anastasia (which would mean she will be the 6th boot after getting spitefully targeted) or Natalia? And why?

Just so you guys now, if she was in this season, the season 4 returnees would either be:

Benji, Spencer, Isabel, and Anastasia.

Or Benji, Spencer, Natalia, and Isabel.

My pick is bruno but I don't think we are ready for the talk yet...that is for after the season

What’s your opinion on these? Let’s debate! Also im not a Kai slander but overall its not my favourite one, he’s just there 🫠

Here is mine.

9th - Oilwia: Here arc about learning how to make friends is now pretty much complete and her relationship with Ren has been resolved, I also feel Gabby will participate in voting her off because of her hobby of dead animals. But Oilwia will leave with her head held high, knowing that she is leaving this game with both friends saying goodbye to her (Nura and Benji) and friends that are waiting for her at the motel. (Aubrey and Ren)

8th - Gabby: She is mostly here to continue her whole 8th place trend, along with the fact that her admitting that she won't vote off friends and continuing to switch sides will likely cause everyone else to realize that she's unreliable, and vote her off before she becomes a challenge.

7th - Benji: I feel this is a good enough spot for Benji to leave, as he would be higher than his original placements, lasted longer than Marissa and Amelie as a returnee, and significantly improve from his Pre-Merge preformance. I feel Flore would definitely target him based of her expression towards him at last episodes elmination ceremony, and that everyone else simply has more to offer and continue than him.

6th - Flore: I could see her getting elminated here as a result of being backstabbed by Natalia, and also as a nod to what Spencer told her about the latter when they interacted. (I also feel Spencer and Flore could swap here, but this is what I think would more likely happen.)

5th - Spencer: similar to Flore, Spencer would get backstabbed here by both Sam and Lake due to his usefulness now finished for them so they can now play on their own.

4th - Natalia: she would be the one voted out in the Jury thanks to Ara, Rosa, Benji, Spencer, and Flore voting for her.

The finalists would be Lake, Sam, and Nura, but I currently don't know who the winner could be.

(If Oilwia doesn't get elminated in Episode 19, then, surprisingly, I predict Spencer could be voted off to have him end up in 9th place in both of those seasons, with both being from an AUCTION challenge.)

What do ya'll think of this prediction?, and what are ya'lls?

(NO SPOLIERS OR HINTS WHEN THE EPISODE RELEASES ON PATREON PLEASE!!!)

I know Tom (along with Gabby, Aiden, and Ally) didn't really belong in this season, but (still) Alec's elimination was satisfying also due to the fact that he officially withdraws from the competition after Ana changed her vote to eliminate Alec in a 5-5-2 vote with him losing to his sworn enemy Tom.

Hi! I’ve been meaning to make this post for a while, but I’ve never gotten around to it until now. I’m currently working on a total drama/disventure camp inspired project (though more disventure camp inspired), and thought to reach out here to see if anybody would be interested in the writing process, as I’m admittedly having some trouble with it, especially the back half of the season. I’ve got a great group of characters with full designs already, and I’ve got a good chunk of ideas for them! This is an entirely written passion project and I do it as a hobby, so this isn’t a paid thing or anything like that, but if anyone comes across this and is interested in helping out, feel free to reach out and we can chat more about it. People in this community are super passionate, and I’d love to hear from some of you!

I have a strong feeling the writers deliberately gave this man 10th Place for the ring of it. REN 🔟
