Ok sorry for abandoning the thread but for various reasons I've missed watching the last few episodes live. I am FINALLY caught up after watching online. A few thoughts:

-As mentioned, metal dude is annoying as frick. "I'm so glad they let a guy on who likes ME-TAL!! OOOOOOOO" That shite is already played out.
-I hate it that Keith is gone. He thought he was a badass for sure, but I feel like he'd be a better player in the game than Porsche, who is nothing but a pawn. She's an idiot and won't go very far I don't think, but she is super hot.
-Shelly is a sitting duck. She said something to Brendon like "I love you guys, this is great playing with yall" or something like that. Basically, saying she's a fan of the vets and wants to align with them. That will be the death of her because they're just going to take advantage of her for what they want then kick her to the curb.
-Speaking of Brendon, man is that guy a pussy. Baby..you hurt my feelings :( Why did you call me that in front of everyone? STFU douche.
-This is my first experience with Evil Dick and although I don't care for his persona, I am sad to see him go. He seems like a guy that really makes the game more interesting because he is constantly strategizing.
-How did Lawon and Kalia even get picked? I feel like they are rarely seen or heard from and don't really do anything but be background figures. Has Kalia even gone to the diary room at all?
-For some reason, I see Cassie being a strong player. She seems to have a level head and won't get bossed around by the returnees.
-In the returnees/newbies battle, I'm pulling for the noobs. The returnees have that attitude about them like "yeah we've been here before so suck it. We don't like you, you're going home." Uhhh....you were picked for a game show, it's not like you climbed Everest. Instead of this mingling/social gameplay stuff where everyone tries to be friends, I wish it would be like a football game with a line drawn in the sand. Noobs vs Vets. We don't want to mix with your side and if we win we're picking you off, period. Would make for some interesting competitions!

I'm on vacation right now so I will definitely watch Sunday and Wednesday episodes live thank goodness. Sadly I will miss Thursdays but hopefully can do a catchup session online and report back the following day.
