I'm seeing 2-2, Grogu and Maggie on Droids; Avocado and T&H on Maggie. Everyone else on Bard.

Probably best if their previous submissions aren't explicit

Wait is that in accordance with what Rey said? I don't think so. that last one would be for any case where bard isn't voted out as long as grogu and cleric weren't voted out

Also bold move from bees hearing idol last minute and shrugging about it. Though it is a fair reaction to a late idol claim.

I can't believe it took them until literally the last two minutes of TC before anyone realized that they could idol out someone not in their alliance.
For a supposedly threatening alliance, they don't seem very...smart.

Ok Maggie and droids tied. I was worrying Maggie died and that would've made me so sad.

They didn't learn the votes were on Bard until pretty late, but yeah, it was bad.

Droids dying will make me sad too but I feel better about that literally solely because they have already done extraordinary for their first game so they will have no regrets dying.

I love those first two PMs hare posted
“Why are we idoling out Droids” “Respond”
Also love Avocado again talking about the big brain, great running theme to claim that as things go disastrously wrong

So question: did Rey actually need to play the merge splitter here? To remove Bard of all people? The guy who just needed an idol to survive? That guy really needs an unmerge in order to be removed?
I know Maggie is close to Bard and actually has him number one over Rey, but still. It's just kind of weird to me. And even if she does remove Bard, I could see all eyes turning to her/Grogu/Cleric after she shows her allegiance like that. She's essentially saying to Bees and Bonobo "hey I don't care that much about you, go deal with a tribe of Avo and T+H". And she's giving Avo and T+H a round to suck up to Bees and Bonobo while their closest ally is getting picked off on the other tribe.
Idk I think this could be a mistake. I know she has to unmerge at some point, but I'm not sure if now is the right time. She probably had the numbers to remove Avocado or Bard without it.

To be honest, I'm more surprised the tribes didn't end up like this:
exile: bard/droids {rey, grogu, cleric, t&h} {avocado, bees, maggie, bonobo}
This seems basically perfect for her? She ca get rid of tortoise/hare and avocado like this, it doesn't matter which tribe loses.

Right exiling Maggie is a very strange choice, and it really leaves Bees and Bonobo out to dry. But why does she even need the merge splitter to take out that alliance??? Aren't they already the minority? If anything, this is helping them by giving them control of one of the tribes.

I like the idea of using the merge splitter on tortoise/hare because they're going to be SUPER HARD TO KILL OTHERWISE.
Avocado just gets the short end of the stick here because given who's left, Avocado is the easiest target to get rid of with exiling a single person. I... don't think Rey saw through all the strategy that this item can hold. Honestly, I'm no sure I have either.
Who cares if you can throw the challenge to get rid of your target when you can line up two targets and guarantee one?

Yeah I agree, I do think T+H is a better target of the merge splitter than Bard. Rey doesn't seem to see it that way however.
