Listening to people react to Dylan and Nicole reminds me of India when we found out Fei and Greg knew each other! Always makes for a good time in an iSurv1vor Game.
Izzy does NOTHING for me... I do love that her confessionals are only 20 - 40 seconds long though.
Carlos... I think this guy knows what is going on... but he goes about it all the wrong way. He has knowledge but not power and he thinks he has both. Come down off your high horse and be humble about this dude. You are only going to ruin your own game. Hes does a lot of "I" talking... He is just one person yet he seems like he can do a lot.
I am really starting to love Davis. I like that he realizes he needs others but wants to play his own game. His only downfall will be which Nicole he gets when he tells her what Carlos is talking about. If he gets the overly emotional Nicole, it may be his downfall because she will confront Carlos on the spot blowing up his game. If he gets the calm Nicole, he could possibly have some time to make a plan with her to take down Carlos. As much as I love the game Carlos has the possibility of playing, I wouldn't mind him going second just to humble him a bit.
... just got to Nicoles confessional...
"Got word from Davis that CARLOS (that mothafucka) wants to dethrone me." -- Oh boy!

Caught up on Anjara's confessionals.
Carlos is playing TOO HARD. He's saying that he uses this method of circling around and making people think it's their idea, but it seems to be coming off as him pushing his ideas anyway. And his ideas are turning people off, and he gets mad at THEM rather than realizing that they might just be shit ideas.
Derby, You know what? Let those boys make you the coach. Take that safety. Nicole will work her magic once she can see the whole picture, and she can shut down the power. I do not like her eating up Carlos's information like Taco Bell. Useless info. Srsly. And then you go telling people without realizing tribes are just a circle of information and people learn who they can and can't trust this way.
Davis, your confessionals have me singing "Carlos Smart, David Smarter". Please please please cut him loose, you'll do better without him putting targets on you guys.
Patia seems to be nobody's target, but rather a non-threatening friend on everyone's side.
Racine could be a target if he does so badly on a challenge again. Seriously? Dropping out in the first 30 seconds? HOW SAFE ARE YOU?
Emily, Racine, Patia, WHY do you all want to sit? I respect Carlos on this point at least - he wants to get in there and play, not let somebody do the winning for him. Emily needs to show up and engage.
If they lose this challenge, Derby or Emily are the obvious, easy boots, but after a week on the tribe, I'd like to see some new ideas take fruition.

So so far I watched Melissa's and yeah I am guilty of the set your phone up and record but I dunno she's just not doing it for me and I wouldn't mind her being a early boot and don't see much she bring to her tribe.

I caught up with the newest confessionals just now. Here is what I am thinking after them: Racine - I don't necessarily like how they are toying with Derby, because I think she could be an actually good ally to people if they gave her a chance. I like the way he is going with his game with Carlos. They could be an extremely strong duo if they manage to make it farther in the game. The plan regarding the idea about the idol is so crazy, I mean, I'm blonde but I'm not *that* stupid to believe something like that. If Derby believes it, then she truly believes anything she is given! Nicole - Perhaps a rivalry between her and Carlos will occur? I think her tribe is pushing her to the boiling point and it will cause her to go off on everyone if she winds up getting dethroned and goes in as a player. I'm worried for her, because she may be a target too soon into the game if they all decide to do that. I do think she is overreacting about the whole "Derby as a coach" situation. I wish she would realize that the whole thing is a joke (from how I've viewed it at least, unless I am missing a bit of context?) and they don't mean that seriously. Carlos - I think he knows where he is going and what he wants to do, my only issue is that he might want to keep Emily around. I get that Emily would be easier to keep since she doesn't do anything nor does she argue, but at least Derby is passionate enough (from the recording I listened to during his confessional, at least) to actually state what she feels but at the same time, it was really stupid of her to go and immediately snitch to Patia about that information. Reminds me of a similar mistake I made in my season. He seems to be in a circle of safety. Davis - I am glad that he isn't on board with wanting Nicole as a player. If he sticks to her for loyalty, I think he could go a long way! Since he thinks Carlos is being somewhat villainous, perhaps he could pull Derby and someone else (maybe Emily, but--) and get something going? I am excited to see how his game unfolds. Imagine if Davis asked Nicole to use the Salvation Cup (I know this will sound stupid, but at least look at it for the main reason) on Derby, and then any votes against Derby do not count, and Carlos gets voted out?! Please, just for entertainment purposes, you must try this if you think hard enough if you ever go to Tribal! (Bad news is, it won't happen, lol). Derby - Loving the energy and enthusiasm she had in the newest confessionals (I guess I didn't see them before I posted that. I'm not saying this to be mean or bad in any way whatsoever, but I do notice she is really high and low in energy / emotions. I'm not saying it is true, but maybe (because I did see people joking about her paranoia and see that it is annoying), she possible has an actual issue with anxiety or some type of emotional handicap? I love her no matter what, I just want to understand her more because if that is the case, then I would definitely the paranoia, stress and emotions much more! It is sad that she gives Carlos even a bit of trust, especially since the way he talks about her without her knowing. (The snitching part, I understand won't judge him on that) Dylan - He seems alright to me, I guess. Targeting Melissa is understandable, but basically you're targeting someone who already made themselves a target, so it isn't a real surprise to anyone. I don't want Melissa gone so soon, even though I KNOW she isn't one of the most well rounded players on the tribe. I'm glad that he admitted to the tribe that he is in a relationship with Nicole. He might as well get that out of the way now, before it destroys him by holding it even longer. Please don't even try to target Mandy! You evil person you! Fabian - I was a little confused with his confessional, but I guess I understand where he is coming from. Not too sure where he got the idea that Kate is Ricky's favorite. Sure, Kate gives off Mary Cooper vibes, but I mean, I personally think Ricky would be more closer to Desiree. I don't see much of a view on how he thinks of others, but I have a bad feeling he wants to go after Ricky. Izzy - Keep the confidence that you have! She may not be the best and she admits that in her newest confessionals, but I definitely see something in her. I'm not sure what it is exactly, but..I just do! I love how she is in agreeance that Jay is a sleeze! That is all I have (again), for now.

Okay so I am a bit behind but here's my thoughts so far! Anjara Poor Nicole lol. I really dislike Carlos (does he believe his own BS?) but I kind of wouldn't mind having Nicole play the game. Voting her out would be premature but I have played with her before and I know she can make shit happen. That will be interesting to watch I was liking Emily but I am so confused by an alumni who signs up for a game and then does NOTHING. There are so many people who want to play. Why are you wasting everyones time? Derby is a hot MESS and I LOVE it. Karak I have to agree with lots of what Ricky said about Desi. I love her to death but .... that said, I hope they figure it out and I am happy Ricky will have some time off lol. I tried to make it through all 14 minutes Desi's video but I didn't make it ugh. I'm a little worried about Fabian noticing that Kate is Ricky's favorite. Jay noticed this too. Ricky needs to stop being so transparent. I wonder if he'll actually do anything about it. In Izzy's triangle picture is she licking her boob? Weird. Also, girl clean your room and don't waste my time with a 21 second journal that says something you already said!

Anjara - For your flag, why wouldn't you use a program that everyone has so that the font can match?!?! I was kind of thrown off by the camels being real and the cast being cartoonish.
Karak I dislike the fact that their bodies just end at some points. I would have liked to see a full body. The names could be done a little differently but I think I like it more than Anjara. Love Ricky's confidence. I like Ricky's idea of keeping it simple because people aren't skilled at photoshop. Smart Move, in my mind.
( Side note: Love the shade ricky is throwing. #TeamRicky!!! but is this a ploy to throw people off or are they really on different ends of the spectrum this season??! I would love to see these two go against each other! )
Madaba Can you really talk about how hard it is to get a picture of a desert when Ricky's flag had one??! As soon I heard there was a hug issue, I looked at it , the first thing that popped out at me was that cactus. I agree with Sandy as well.
MY GRAPHIC DESIGN SIDE IS GOING CRAZY LOOKING AT THIS! I keep thinking of the 6 principles of design and their lack of appearance here.
I do like the flag though, as a "survivor" flag. I feel like it is the most like something you would see on the real show... but for iSurv1vor, not so much.
My pick for winner... Karak...

CYA KM. Alrighty, so time for the next Round since I am posting later I have a bit more info than what I would've earlier. So for the Anajara tribe: Everyone knows that Nicole is Dylan's girlfriend, which came as a shock to everyone. This was a mutual reception on the Madaba tribe. I think that this could definitely hurt Nicole as a coach and Dylan as a player. Derby is starting to get on my nerves a little. Don't ask me why. Still loving Racine. Karak: Not much to say about them...Dezi has a good alliance with Ricky and some of the girls so I think it should play out nicely if they stick together. Favorites include Fabian, Kate, and Dezi obviously. Tibet represent. Also, Travis seems to be making a lot of people nervous. Must be an Ohio thing. Now for the real shit that makes this game interesting. MADABA: Ok so as of now, Shon is the target. My high hopes are that the Salvation Cup is used on Melissa and she will work with Reynolds and Steph to get Shon out. I am kindof annoyed with his "time to be the biggest bitch attitude." Clearly that isn't going to help him in the game, so I don't see why he thinks it will save him from the chopping block. I am honestly really curious to see if Mandy is gonna be able to keep her spot as a coach..because her chances seem a bit slim now. Will update the next episode <3

The fact that it's like Day 6 and everyone on Anjara is still saying Patia's name wrong is insane. Like, has there not been a moment for her to correct them at any point? Has no one asked how to say her name? I just can't.
That is all.

Looking at the tribes and dynamics now, these tribes are still being predictable...but the potential is there for it to be ramping up!
I'm not a huge Travis fan, but that's from knowing him in other games. He can be very convincing and Dezi being on holiday is the best thing that could have happened for Travis. He was able to form some relationships without her. At the same time, she is not at the top of anyone's list, so Dezi seems to be safe right now.
I keep thinking, Emily Who? Emily being voted out shouldn't be a huge surprise to anyone. Kind of the same with Melissa. I mean, she was a target anyway. I really think she could have brought some life into the game if she could have stayed.
Oh Davis...keep an eye on your back with Carlos! I think Davis is playing things well, but he needs to watch his back!
Mandy...I'm worried for her! That social tribe might social her right out of the coach's spot. Shon, being a bitch. Really? Yes, that will get you far!
On a side note, any idea what is up with Izzy? I can't tell if she's actually in the game. And, the fact that she wants to possibly bring Travis into an alliance with she, Dezi and Ricky? Ouch, trouble!

With my kids school vacation and my daughter spilling milk on my new computer I was way behind so I will do a quick summary since 3 is starting. Davis is smart and playing level headed in my opinion and if he keeps on I see him getting far minus the whole Nicole thing haha. Izzy yeah hmmm don't see myself being in the fantasy too long. Ughhhhh Derby is getting screwed over big time this girl will die by the sword for her alliance and they just aren't legit buying. Not Surprised over Emily or Melissa given my own run in with them both I can see why they would go. I think Mandy is doing well in the coaching position and would be surprised to see her overthrown soon. Same goes for Ricky . Nicole on the other hand I think her days are numbered.
