I for one didn't know it would be available to everyone... I thought just our tribe... maybe I misread that.  |

I watched Stephen in CYS a few seasons back and he was a pleasant surprise to what I thought he was going to be. Felix has me on facebook but I have no idea who he is so that's something.

Our next reveal is someone I'm very excited to see play, but I'm sure a few of you might not be, and Brandon Clark definitely won't be...
I'm really excited to see what Patrick brings to the table this season. Fun fact for those of you who may not know this, but Ashlee's nickname "The Ice Queen" originated from Patrick Scarola. Patrick is very excited about playing the game, and as a host there's nothing I love more than someone who is going to give a game their all and are excited to play. I think if Patrick manages to get with a solid group and establish himself he'll be good to go. Can he win the game? For me, the jury is out on that one, I think he'll definitely be a character and controversial in the game, but it's going to take a lot for him to actually win. I don't know if he'll be able to, but I hope he can. I know he is definitely determined too and I love that drive in players.

Patrick left a bad taste in my mouth after his little tantrum in the ProSurvivor group got him removed. Not a big fan

Here's the thing about Patrick, he's smart and he can be charismatic, BUT he does get emotional (not like crying but mad, resentful etc) and makes rash decisions that affect him as a player. I think that him being in the game will affect BDC more than BDC being in the game will affect Patrick. I think if Patrick can dial back his outbursts, he could have a shot at going far.

Time for another reveal! You guys will know the whole cast by the end of the day, isn't that exciting!
I'm very excited for Kyle to play this season. He is someone who applied last season right near the deadline, almost made it but just missed out and we reached out to him because we wanted him to play so badly. Kyle's video below does not do him justice, on call with him this guy has this dry humour that's so funny. Our interview with him was pretty much just him making fun of Anie for not knowing who Steve Carrell is and never seeing the office. I think Kyle can do really well in this game. I think he's a player who has a good natural balance of being social and strategic without overdoing either. I hope he steps up in the game to really be a driving force in its strategy. I think Kyle could potentially win this.

What's this? Another reveal? OH MAN!
I don't know how to feel about Regan. I'm very happy to have her on board for the season, I love how excited she is to try out a Skype game being from the Tumblr community, but like Mikki, she's either going to sink or swim and for me I'm still not sure which it will be. She says her social game is on point, so I can easily see her getting into a good position, she has Katya potential, but I don't know whether or not she'll find the game too overwhelming. I think she's way more suited for the purple tribe, it's more mellow and it will be an easier transition for her. Had she been on the orange tribe I think she would be dead in the water, but I wouldn't count her out given her current tribe dynamic. I'm hoping she embraces her inner-Parvati and really commands this game socially. If she's as good as she says she is I think she can do it!

Tumblr scum take over, watch out and they say things like " afhudvbjkfedvhii" and use this: :~) way too often. And for some reason they spell wrecked as wreckedt and they're a unique breed.  |

Oh man who's ready for our last two reveals! I know I am! Let's get to it.
Anie and Brandon love Kevin, they really should be the ones writing this haha. Not that I don't like Kevin, I just don't really know him that well, but I'm really excited to see him play. I think Kevin is going to be in a really good spot in his tribe, potentially an early swing vote. He's going to be wanted for alliances because he's so nice, but he'll have to be careful not to fall into too much of a follower role. I think he'll be a pivotal players in these early rounds, I'm excited to see him play!
_____________________________________________________________________
And now for the final reveal. For those that will disagree with this choice, hey, just look at it as someone to root against this season!
A few of you probably know Eric, whether it's from Tengaged or other gaming experiences, and if you do, you probably have an opinion of him. Eric can definitely be pretty polarizing, but to be honest, that's why he's good casting. Eric will take risks and play hard in this game, he's proven in the past that he's willing to do some pretty rough things to advance in games, but sometimes it doesn't work out for him. He'll definitely have an uphill battle because his reputation precedes him. He was specifically brought up in Blake's interview in not the greatest light, but I'm personally very excited to see what Eric will bring to the game. I hope he brings his A game, because when he's in it to win it, like him or not he can be damn interesting.
_____________________________________________________________________
And there we have it! The 18 players competing to conquer the Faroe Islands! I hope you're all as excited for this season as I am.
Let me know what you think of the overall cast, I'll be setting up a Fantasy Draft either later tonight or tomorrow. |

Okay so I skipped some reveals but I'm just gonna rank each tribe then overall cast ranking and put a few comments.
Orange tribe: this is the crazy tribe. Full of huge personalities and a lot of people who have played several bigger orgs. I think they'll be fun to watch because they'll be insane
1. Feji - she's OTT when she wants but she can be calmer too and on this tribe I think she'll shine
2. Kevin- he's smart and funny and again I think he'll shine in a tribe of OTT personalities
3. Stephen- he's more low key, I think they'll let him slide by thinking he's not a threat.
4. Casey - this is just hoping she learned from her endure mistakes
5. Mikki
6. Brandon
7. Blake
8. Corey - Blake & Corey are lower not because they're bad strategists but because they can be way too OTT that it rubs people the wrong way. Luckily for them they have at least one other person on their tribe each who knows them so it could help them
9. Saxon- eh I just didn't get much from him
Purple tribe: overall the purple tribe strikes me as calmer and more "boring" but it has great potential. They also have two people who tend to come off as villainous so it'll be interesting to see if one of them changes or if they eventually butt heads.
1. Lindsay- she's smart, she's got an amazing personality and she's loyal.
2. John- nice, simple, I see him getting in an alliance and riding it out
3. Mike- I've seen Mike come back and fight hard. He's smart and could be one of the better strategists
4. Eric- some people will disagree with me putting him this high, but Eric can be charming, he's very cunning and he knows how to win challenges when he needs to. He also is manipulative so unless they get him out early, they could be in trouble
5. Joshua
6. Patrick - I think I never gave Patrick enough credit in prosurvivor but he's a friendly enough guy and he also can find cracks and exploit them.
7. Regan- I see her being someone's goat tbh
8. Kyle- I like Kyle, I just don't think that this cast will right away
9. Johnny- idk I'm just not feeling him and I know most of these people so I don't know if they will either.
