Haven't gotten around to starting this season yet, how does it compare to the last few seasons?

That auction was brilliant.

Almost shed a tear when Jeff brought out the live grubs #oldschoolsurvivor

That consumed 25 minutes and it felt like 5…engrossing

One of the best heads-up play I've seen in the game w/ Rachel. Works on multiple levels.

I really like Sol.

What the hell with Andy not seeing those bamboo tubes? That was crazy.

The auction was great but with the money situation and the issue that whoever is left with the most money loses their vote means that everyone bids the lot, so the producers know who will be the highest bidder on the next item and can plant advantages.

Lastly, can someone explain why Rachel played her shot in the dark and not her idol if she was so worried?

P.s. this season is going well

Also its just much less entertaining towards the end as theres no drama over the bidding. Jeff brings item out, person with most money bids everything, repeat. Just get rid of the losing votes bullshit and it'd be miles better.

To see the reaction to her playing it. If people were worried when she played it and/or relieved when it failed, she would've known to play her idol.

I don't know why people love the auction. At its best it's just ok. Like this it's just dumb. It's not even an auction - not that it really matters with the players themselves never knowing how an auction actually works with the amounts they bid. Plus as was said above its so easily open to production manipulation with them knowing who is going to buy each item
