His entire application was magnificent.

Also thoughts so far,

Donovan: Excited to see him play again. He's matured, at his young age, from SC11/BBChron and I think could do fairly well here. He's a veteran to the series so that gives him an edge, and I think his lackluster performances to this date could eliminate any hindrances associated with returnees.

Katie: Looking forward to the loudness! Should be an entertaining player.

Maxis: We have a bunch of similar interests and +1 for Mountain Dew! I hope Max does well, their application showed good promise.

Mike: Mike did really well in the beginning of SC10 and I thought he had a great shot at going far/all the way in that game. I expect him to do well in this game too, as long as he commits the time to it.

Patrick: I don't know much about Patrick personally, but I've heard he's been in the ORG world for years. Looking forward to a seasoned player taking on a bunch of newbies.

Eric B: Diggory! I've played with him once before and he made the finals. He's an avid player and I know he can be a good guy, wishing him some goodluck!

RJ: Euphoric.

Lindsay: I liked her a lot in the past season and she was a big character/player. Elise is correct in her analysis, and we must wait to see if she reflected on her past downfalls.

Spencer: The first Sherlip recruit! Looks like a nice guy, hopefully he can overcome some social hurdles in this game to do well and have fun.

Ryan: Self-proclaimed villains don't always do well in terms of success, but he should prove entertaining.

Anthony: One of my favorites so far. We are both sports junkies and his passion for reality TV strikes home for me!

John: aka JW. Played with him briefly in O12 and watched him in SC4, he faltered in both games around the middle of the game stage, looking forward to see if he can break the upper-echelons of placement.

David: I like his spirit and I hope he has some fun playing.

Jacob: I would say he's one of the front-runners at the moment. He's a proven winner in the iSurv1vor series and should definitely do well here. Interested to see in how he manages relationships with people he already knows.

Rebecca: Love the passion! Steve says she's a good player, she better not dissapoint.

Tyler appears to have a good grasp of the strategic aspects of survivor. If he can combine that knowledge with good social bonds, he should fare well.

Jared is a very capable player. He's gonna have a field day with this cast tbh.

Also excited to see Brandon return! If he tones down the attitude/cockiness I think he can do much better.

I foresee some tension between him and Lindsay this time though, which probably won't bode well for either of them.

This is the main thing I am excited about. The Brandon/Lindsay interaction should be amazing.

Jack @ 7/11/2014 20:34 Jared is a very capable player. He's gonna have a field day with this cast tbh. Can you explain Jack? I've only really seen Jared play once. I know he's pretty great but why do you think he's going to have a field day with this cast?

He's a very charismatic player who is able to get people on his side very easily. He did well in SC11 and BBChron, he's also done really well in the iSurv1vor seasons I've looked at.

People seem to fall in love with him very easily and he has a cutthroat instinct about him. I just think he's going to do very well here, I would be very surprised to not see him around late in the game.
