Yeah, I don't really like that either. Someone's game could be dramatically affected based on how you feel about them, and what your read of the gamestate is.
Plus it rewards players who don't post in their confessional.

Zero had the idol. The Lindsays probably would have left.

I bet Zero would've been blindsided. Who tells him?

I agree, but nobody's used it so far!

But yeah there's literally no reason not to use it as far as I can tell.

Plus it rewards players who don't post in their confessional. My main issue was that it felt like I'd be utterly condemning Ranger with no chance. Plagueis was removed to (at lest hopefully) deal with the Elder Scrolls alliance for a round while giving Bonobo and Ranger had a reason to bond. Keep in mind the original swap was 5-1. And then if Ranger gets voted out, Bonobo or Avocado have the same issue.

What's the Elder Scrolls alliance again? Why did they have to be dealt with?
I like to do random swaps but control them. So like, decide in advance 2 people from each tribe will go here, 2 will go here, etc but then run a randomizer to decide who those people are, and if someone gets swap screwed, it was fate that decided it, not me.

Elder Scrolls is Plagueis/Maggie/Dave. I thought Plagueis was the key part of it, so I focused more on keeping Dave away from Bees.

Three DNFs on Redemption Island now. Michael is the only player to have found the image! Only Beef Jerky left to go (we're not convinced he's actually going to attempt it).
Either way Rey is going up - it's either going to be Michael/Rey or Beef Jerky/Rey. Much as I think Michael + Rey both deserve to be here, I actually have my fingers crossed for the former because I think it would be way more interesting!

I am very excited for this RI to end, actually. Few rounds away still, but much hype.

I actually think Lepp/Monk/Rey are almost guaranteed to make it out. I don't have too much hope for Cleric, though.

handpicking how a swap works out is very not my cup of tea
random, random with a certain tribal split guaranteed, or based on a game mechanic for me. swap screws are part of life.
