Like I've said before: one of the best single-season arcs ever.
So who's going to be this season's bitter juror?

Scot, probably.
Yeah, I think that's probably the way it breaks down.
I'm really excited because obviously Aubry is winning now, so that means the editors deliberately crafted a misleading winner edit in Michele. Not even a beat-you-over-the-head one like they used to (e.g. Marcus, Russell then Mick, or even Spencer from last season)...
But a subtle one that had no flaws, the perfect season-long structure, with content that had no purpose other than to go to great lengths to kindly and gently explain why someone didn't do enough to win, rather than just not show much of it, or show why they lost.
It's so weird, but I love it.

...no. I think the Michele winner's edit was something only you saw.

This basically. Debbie might go for Michele. She is gonna give a fun speech most likely.

Oooh, Tai blowing it on the first question.
"I was loyal until I wasn't loyal anymore. I didn't stab anyone in the back."

No, it's definitely there. Sucks has been unbearable because a decent edit has grown into 'ironic fandom' as people kept complaining that Michele wasn't doing anything with one of the best edits of the girls early on.
I didn't think it was as big as BowieZ, but she was a contender, yeah.

Michele looking over like oh shit.

What? Look anywhere outside this thread and everyone thought it was all on Michelle to win.
The negativity in the F6/5 eps was a huge tell- the editors were shading Michele to prime the audience to dislike her.
The problem is that people saw a Sophie/Natalie W style edit in a season with a Tony/Natalie/Mike style winner.

Aw, I hoped Julia was going off on her ally.
That's why you avoid Survivor Sucks at all cost. Nothing good can come from reading too much of what they have to say.
Really? I get all my Survivor fill from this thread, and the EW recaps. I didn't see the Michelle edit that so many people apparently did.

It's not just sucks, look at past players, listen to podcasts almost everywhere was saying this was Michelles win and were excited go see how Aubrey could possibly lose.

The scene where they showed her resting her head on Julia while Aubry was off changing the vote (and then repeated the scene in the recap) made it clear that she wasn't going to win. They would never put a scene like that in (twice) for a winner.

Kind of a dumb question by Aubrey, who cares if she knew? The question was about her not swaying.

Aubry giving a really impressive performance. Owning her big moves, and undermining everyone else.
I think that's too much meta-reading of the game. People overthought it.

That's fine and good on the editors but saying no one was seeing that...

Tai is absolutely terrible and judging the situation. Whole jury about him backstabbing starts his speech about not needing to. Lol

Like I said, I only follow Survivor through this thread, and the consensus here -- as far as I saw -- was that Aubry was the apparent winner.

her entire narrative is winning the final immunity, backing the wrong person at the final vote, and winning a virtually meaningless challenge to vote out a jury member.

That was very zen of Tai...which means I have no idea what the hell he was talking about but it was calming.

Even there I think your playing fast and loose with 'consensus'. There was a flip in the last couple episodes but there was quite a lot of talk of an obvious Michelle win pretty early on for a while.

Yeah, ever since the Oregon Trail confessional, and then her massive tears over losing the reward in the next episode I had her pegged as the winner.
