my first PM back to Bees was just to quote his initial rant to me back at him with a few word tweaks I feel like this is a misplay. Personally, not entirely sure what would've happened if I got yeeted back into the game in a tribe with avo, ranger and bard like 2 days after I got booted by them but I don't feel like this would be it.

I think so too. I'm curious why they didn't?

It's almost like it's barely Survivor.

I feel bad for almost every tribe at this point, and I don't want any of them to lose.
I feel bad for Bees getting fucked by Grogu turning up. I feel bad for Maggie being in such a shit swap with a person she just voted off. And I feel bad the Redemption Island people stuck on a tribe with only each other, unable to meet anyway else despite technically having returned to the game.
I do think I want Blue to lose though. Their TC would be the most dynamic, and Maggie must survive.

It's almost like it's barely Survivor. Pine I know you think you are being clever and this is a good response, but it's really not. Like the complaint is not that non-traditional Survivor things are happening, it's that those things are providing a bad experience to the players, rewarding people for doing things that you probably shouldn't, or just not as cool as they could have been. Like a lot of things are Barely Survivor, like Big Brother, which when implemented on Redemption was received very well. If you think the twist is good or interesting and want to justify it, that's cool. If you'd rather people not complain or meme because designing a game is hard (boy do I know that) and having people pick out things they don't like is bad, that's also cool. But don't hide behind the veil of "oh, well it's barely Survivor", that's like people complaining about the character development of a book and the author acting like they're complaining about the setting. Btw love the memes, peeps.

Btw love the memes, peeps. You're right, that was glib, and I apologize. We could have telegraphed the exile a bit better, and sending them to RI2 early was also an option we did not take. This section of the game is meant to be a bit of a knife fight, with the players constantly being pressed from all sides and unsure of the rules. We seem to have overdone the confusion.

Challenges like this remind me of how much I hate them when I host. It's impossible to do these without making a bunch of errors.
(Re: the ongoing discussion, I don't have the energy to discuss it right now, but long story short I had more trust in MS to actually play and not just jerk off to watching others fail)

I'm sorry Silver, I didn't mean for it to come off as a personal attack. I wanted to make a meme, and I thought it would be funny.
I do have some design concerns about the game, but I've also really enjoyed being a spectator and interacting with everybody.

I'm just tired overall today. You're allowed to have your concerns, and honestly, they've been fairly valid. When I designed this I was looking for the setup to be silly and weird with little regard to the consequences, while also at least being a bit new player-friendly.
If I had more time to iron out the kinks/had a bit less life happen to the modteam when we made the game, several things would have been changed.
