I think Chrissy is setting up herself well in the majority alliance. At this point she is still calling some shots and has close ties with Ben and Ryan. However, she isn't blatantly leading the alliance so the target isn't on her like it is on Ben. And a lot of people are getting turned off by the fact that she lies a lot, but it's Survivor. If you didn't come to lie, then why did you bother to even show up?
2. Mike
I really like Mike, I feel like he's working himself out of the sinking ship that is the healers and making stronger alliances and connections with other people. Once this massive majority alliance starts to fall apart then I feel like he is likable enough to work into the cracks and if that doesn't work out he always has an idol on his side and he was smart enough not to tell anyone unlike another skinny little white boy we know *cough* *cough* Ryan. I mean he did tell Jessica, but that's only because she was there when he found it and he knew she wouldn't tell anyone after she felt what it was like to have her advantage be revealed by Cole.
3. Devon
Feel like for right now he is being the likable guy that's in with everyone and is always going to have options moving forward. That being said sometimes its difficult to stay true to all those connections and eventually he might burn someone bad. But for now, still likable, flying under the radar and is in a good spot to go far.
4. Ashley
Playing a smart game in this strong majority alliance, but I feel like she is in the best position to make a big move should she want to. So I think if she pulls the numbers together soon to take a swing at Ben then she could set herself up really well to be a frontrunner.
5. JP
All he really did was get second in the immunity challenge and yeah. Plus he's too stupid to notice writing on the bottom of his plate. Obviously a recruit, so oblivious!
6. Ben
It's not that I don't like Ben it's just that I feel like he is being set up as the leader of the majority alliance and this early into the merge there is no way he is going to be able to maintain control all the way through. I think he is kind of destined to fail once some of the other players emerge and start making big moves. It's not that I don't like his gameplay, I just think he took on that leadership role too quickly.
7. Lauren
Sort of Ben's right-hand man at the time and she did do a good job of hiding her advantage; however, she shouldn't have told Ben because at some point Ben is going to be in a tough spot and expect Lauren to use it to help him, but she probably won't so he'll get pissed and might call her out. Otherwise, Lauren is clearly a follower. Unless, she uses that advantage to better her game and make a big move or two then I think she could get to the end, but I don't think she'll win.
8. Ryan
Now we get to the part of the list of the people I don't like. Ryan just annoys me as a person, he is so over analytical and doesn't just play the game for what it is. He brags about his massive social game and how he calls all the shots, but the only thing he's really done strategy-wise was betray his best friend in the game. I feel like he is going to get to a point where he thinks he needs to start making big moves so he takes out all his allies to say he did something in the game and then he's going to realize he has no allies left and won't make it to the end of the game. Or he will make it to the end, but all his old allies will hate him and he won't get any votes. Plus he told three people about the idol now, Chrissy, Ben, and Devon. Which annoys me so much, because I always told myself if I get on Survivor, my number one rule would be that if I found an idol I would not tell a single soul about it!
9. Joe
He's desperate and honestly lucky that the majority alliance was stupid enough to vote out Desi over him. He is going to grasp at any straw to try and claw his way out, but at this point he's finished. He dug a grave so deep that if he somehow manages to make it more than two more votes, holy crap give him the million dollars. He is alone now and unless the producers throw in ANOTHER advantage to make the game "interesting" then I think Joe's annoying voice and cockiness will be sent packing soon.
10. Cole
DOUCHEBAG! Literally, the definition of a douche. He acts like he is unbeatable, eats constantly to get brain power because we all know nothing else is really going on up there. Then he tackles Chrissy, which albeit was kind of funny, but like come on man show a little class. But yeah, he's gonna try and be the next Terry Deitz and win his way to the finish, but we know it won't happen. It's ok, the sooner he leaves, the better.
