Question: I notice on your Deltarune posts you focus on a lot about relationships and gender roles and such. May I ask why exactly? Just curious as to why find this aspect of this game so particularly interesting? Is there anything else you find interesting about DR?

well. first of all yes I find many other aspects of DR to be interesting lmao. the discarded vessel, the conversations ralsei and kris have when the player isnt looking, the dreemurr-holiday family split, anything surrounding dess, the connections to undertale, what gaster's goals are, susie's potential, kris's whole everything.... but as I've said before, I don't really like making predictions outside of themes and character dynamics. and I feel that for most of these things, I don't have enough information yet to really dig my teeth in analysis-wise, or else I don't have anything interesting to say that hasn't been said already.

as for why I fixate on the theme of gender so much.......

it just happens to be a theme I'm extremely drawn to and interested in

idk if I've ever vibed with a single character as much as I do noelle. it's like she and all her aesthetics were made for me specifically to love. and noelle is..... at least given the context of the weird route, she's kind of a girl of all time? not just in terms of being a great character, but her position represents femininity in fiction to me in the same way as like, rei ayanami or anthy himemiya. she's very much herself but in the eyes of the narrative and the viewer she becomes every girl to ever live. she's turned into a symbol. all girls are like the rose bride. there's just already so many layers and so much to analyze about it- not just from the game itself but how the audience receives and reacts to the game.

I'm a woman

my absolute favorite genre of video games is JRPGs from the 90s and 00s and let me tell you something about that. I could name more games that I have stopped playing after getting hours in specifically because the way they handled their female characters pissed me off so much, than games that I've come out of feeling like the girls were written at all fairly. how women are written in this genre, and in fantasy at large, is something I already thought about all the time. and deltarune is very much based on games like that! it's not the only thing deltarune is based on but it's the thing I personally have the most experience with. and given what we've been presented with so far, I actually feel pretty confident, for the first time in my life, that deltarune is going to continue to do right by its female characters and have interesting things to say about women in JRPGs, video games, fantasy, and fiction in general, if only in the abstract. it's something I've been dying to see done well specifically in this setting, this genre, and this medium for years. and I'm gonna revel in that as much as I can.

......writing this I forgot that you also said "relationships" and not just gender roles lol but that answer's a lot simpler. I just love watching and writing character interaction. and again, it's something I can iterate on a lot despite not having the full picture yet. it's fun and cool.

long post abt accessability in games, DMC3, DS1, and control schemes

games like God of War or Devil May Cry can be inaccessible because they have inputs which require button mashing, which is difficult for someone with arhritis or other problems that affect their hands and wrists. but these inputs are generally not required to beat the game; you have a lot of options, so you can just avoid using any move that's too difficult. the main issue is that these games become more demanding the further into the game you want to go; keeping a combo going in DMC requires a very high apm and use of the entire controller, so a person with a motor disability will hit a wall eventually.

this is a design problem which i think is difficult to analyze. DMC starts from a very unique design—it has a huge number of moves, almost all of which are accessible out of neutral rather than hidden at the end of an attack string—which it has to pay for by using a large number of unique inputs (forward + attack, back + attack, forward then back + attack, hold shoot to charge, hold devil trigger to charge [charges can be buffered]). it introduces a lot of complexity, but it's actually less complexity right away than other action games; instead of having to memorize a long list of complicated strings (cf. Bayonetta's Punch, Punch, Kick, Kick, pause, Kick, which is different from Punch, Punch, Punch, Kick, Kick, pause, Punch [click]—have fun with those!), you can learn attack, shoot, devil trigger, then forward attack, hold shoot... etc., one at a time, and mix them into your play and find out when they're good. its combo system is not just complex but also discoverable; players can try out how its different pieces fit together without opening the movelist.

but once a player already knows all the moves, the game starts to ask more and more out of them. not only do you want to use all of the inputs one after the other very fast (try jump cancelling Beowulf's Killer Bee into another Killer Bee for the first time—pretty tough, right? and all you're pressing there is X and △! the inputs get harder!), but since your charge moves can be buffered, you also want to hold O and L1 to charge your shot and devil trigger for when you might need them, and you might also want to lock-on by holding R1. when watching a really good player playing with an input viewer it's not uncommon to see every single button on the controller light up at the same time. doing that stuff is really fucking hard.

so far we don't have any problems; it's a picture perfect picture of a system that's 'easy to use, hard to master,' right? but because the thing thats hard to do in this case is input a lot of buttons at once on a physical controller, we've just frozen out any players with hand/wrist problems or motor issues from high level play, at least without adapting the game somehow. this is a problem that's difficult to predict, difficult to foresee, and difficult to design around; i don't see how you could fix it without making DMC a completely different game than what it is.

so if you started from the premise of designing a game that was accesisble to people with hand/wrist and motor issues (including suckers like me who played a bunch of high apm games like DMC and Runescape and fucked up their wrist), you'd have to come up with something pretty different at a very fundamental level.

this is why Dark Souls is, in a lot of ways, a VERY ACCESSABLE action game. what do i mean? its control scheme is extremely simple. once you press every button on the controller you've learned everything you're going to learn about it (apart from one very non-obvious hard-coded universal cancel, but don't worry about it). all you have to do is dodge or block the other's guys attack and then hit him with yours.

there's a lot of ways that DeS/DS1 approached the action genre differnetly to other games, but right now i'm only going to highlight one: the kind of 'questions' DS is asking its player. if you think about DMC, what is DMC trying to get the player to do? while you can beat the game with one or two simple combos, the system is obviously made in a way that encourages freedom and flexibility, and the game has systems to reward long, varied combos (the 'style' rating). and that's all it wants you to do (apart from in a couple of levels where they want you to do platforming—ugh!). to accomplish this, they lock you in a room with some enemies and only let you out when you beat them all.

in Demon's Souls the main thing they want you to do is navigate complicated dungeons that are full of traps; some levels have mazes in them, and lots of traps kill you instantly. it's similar to Kings Field, which its a spiritual successor to, but it's also similar to other early 3d RPGs: Deathtrap Dungeon, Die by the Sword, Dungeon Lords... (in one interview Miyazaki said part of his job was to play a bunch of 'open world RPGs' for research, and i imagine that included some of these old, weird games; the first dungeon in Dungeon Lords has a rafter-walking section with projectile-shooting enemies, chain-pulley mechanical elevators and highly damage-resistant slimes). they also want you to kill enemies. but the game never forces you to kill these enemies; you're never locked in a room until you kill all the enemies, and enemies never have items that are necessary to progress in the level. enemies are just one obstacle among others. consequently, enemy encounters are designed in a certain way that makes avoiding them difficult and approaching them complex. an enemy that throws firebombs will stand at the top of a long, narrow staircase, forcing you to dodge them on the way up; two enemies will stand behind a doorway and, if you run in blindly, will both attack you from behind. things like that. it was hard to avoid enemy encounters in Demon's Souls because the levels involved suffocatingly narrow corridors and the enemies followed you forever. but it was possible and sometimes desirable. in DS1 running by enemies is often preferable and, with foreknowledge of the level, always possible. it's also a lot easier as enemies don't follow you very far anymore (this change was patched into the game after release).

running and jumping both consume stamina, as do dodging, blocking, and attacking. getting hit costs hitpoints, and falling off a ledge costs all your hitpoints. both aspects of the game (navigation and combat) use all of the same resources, and engaging in combat is generally one of a few options the player has to navigate an area. it is, a lot of the time, by far the easiest option, but most players will find a few areas that they hate enough to always run through. one of the messages players can leave to each other is 'try dashing through.' the game rewards you for killing enemies by giving you souls and loot drops, but it also punishes you for making mistakes by leaving you down on resources—less health, fewer estus, and fewer spellcasts—so the best thing to do at any given time is difficult to analyze.

the questions DS is asking its players, therefore, is to familiarize themselves with the level, come up with a plan, conserve their own resources and make it out with the loot. at lower levels of play the game is mostly about succeeding at lots of combats and navigating lots of traps over a long distance without making too many small mistakes. then, at high levels of play, the gameplay is mostly about movement, exploiting the game's verticality and taking advantage of holes in the enemy placement. but the change from low to high levels of play mostly takes place in the mind of the player, not their hands; they understand the levels better, they are better able to respond to things which were previously unpredictable to them, and they have more confidence in their ability to do what is needed of them.

so our game not only starts off very accessible to players with hand/wrist or motor problems, but it finishes there too. although, i've gone a little too far: the player's hands will change a bit as they improve at the game. like Monster Hunter, the best way to play Dark Souls is to have a claw grip in both hands; the thumbs should operate the analogue sticks, the index finger should operate the d-pad (for toggle escales, the universal cancel i mentioned, as well as changing spells) and the face buttons (for rolling, using items, interacting with doors and items), and the remaining digits manipulating the shoulders/triggers (for attacks, blocks and parries). while running, you want to hold L1 (block) so you can roll (circle) out of a run without jumping. this might be hard for you depending on your condition, but i don't think it's that much worse than holding a controller the regular way.

anyway, the point is this: you might want to think about making your game accessible not just to the general player with disabilities, but to the 'hardcore' player with disabilities. do you want disabled people to not only beat your game, but be really good at it? how would you design systems to accomodate that? i've talked about hand/wrist and motor issues here because it's what i was thinking about (and some games, like Runescape, aren't really accessible to me anymore thanks to my wrists, at least in the way i used to play them), but there are other disabilities you could probably design around. imagine a player who has CFS or ADHD in a way that keeps them from practicing consistently; could you make a game that is rewarding for such a player to try and get really good at nonetheless? Runescape (conceived of competitively, ie. racing to the leaderboard &c) was good for players with certain kinds of disabilities and neurotypes since it required a huge amount of time and dedication, it really rewarded being unemployed, LOL. but what if there was a game that somehow rewarded inconsistency? who knows...

anyway, i'm saying how i tend to think about it as a rebuttal to the way i see most people talk about accessibility in games, which is merely playing games. thus Dark Souls can be criticized for being difficult for a new player to complete, for example. but this always struck me as a bewildering way to talk about games. plenty of disabled people don't just want to complete games, they want to be good at them. and disabled people can and do become good at games and compete and win at them. so the question for me is not so much 'how do i make a game someone with this disability could play?' but 'how do i make a game someone with this disability would want to master?'—a game which doesn't create headaches for them, which works with rather than against them, and which they actually enjoy at all levels of play.

The Golden Army Poker Tournament

Another Sunday with the Golden Army meant another contest. This week it was a poker tournament. The team of over 100 between the bros and Polo Drones took the time to just have some fun and bond. Talking at the tables and reading their bro's facial expressions.

Even the fully transformed drones could appreciate the camaraderie of playing with the team, even as they processed their decision to call, raise, or fold.

Plus it was a casual event and intermingling between drones and Golden bros was encouraged. Have fun with the whole team.

PDU-084 had taken over its host, Grayden, for the event. The drone's logical processing was even faster when uninhibited by human emotions. PDU-084 continued to play at a table with two other polo drones and two golden bros. Watching as the volunteer announcer and score keepers would lower the number of remaining bros down.

130 dwindled to 110, 100. 90. But PDU-084 knew that the team members were bonding, bros and drones alike.

PDU-084 could see at another table that PDU-001 was racking up a big stack of chips at his table. That drone would be a formidable rival, if both made it to the final table.

Looking around more PDU-084 analyzed some shirtless bros. His calculations couldn't establish if strip poker rules had been activated or not.

PDU-084 just kept watching the table it was at. As one bro went all in and lost to another drone at the table, he stood up and exchanged a handshake and friendly hug with the drone. The board of remaining players just kept dwindling 75, 50, 40.

Each table looked a little different, but no one could deny the brotherhood in the friendly competition.

Then PDU-084's thoughts were interrupted by the announcer, "And with that Captain Brody is eliminated. Bringing us down to 20 players left."

PDU-084 had not calculated that. Its predictions, expected Captain Brody to make the top 10 at least. The drone was surprised that its table still had four people. Some tables had been combined and some of the eliminated bros had gotten drinks and started chatting as they watched.

More and more players got eliminated, some even offering to strip off their golden jersey tops for a few extra chips. Polo drones had to remind them that wasn't how the game worked.

10 players left quickly became 9, 8, 7, 6. Before PDU-084 could even compute he was at a table with PDU-076, PDU-001, and Captain Herc. They were the last four standing. Three polo drones and one of the Golden Army's captains.

PDU-084 couldn't quite read the other drones, but Captain Herc had a tell. PDU-084 wasn't sure how no other drones had picked up on it yet, but the captain was prone to bluffing big when he had a weak hand to try to scare opponents. Herc's muscles were also quite intimidating. PDU-084 watched as PDU-076 fell for the bluff, losing a significant amount of its chips.

PDU-084 tried to play cautiously, but noticed Captain Herc was quickly racking up chips from the other two drones. Most of the team, led by defeated captain Brody, cheered captain Herc on.

To which Herc responded, "Brody, bro. I got this."

PDU-084 thought Herc was underestimating the drone's intellect. But PDU-084 couldn't manage to keep much of a lead. PDU-076 dropped out in fourth losing to Herc and PDU-001 wasn't far behind.

The two drones walked over to the viewing tables getting cheers, high fives, and hugs from their fellow drones and team members. You could almost see a smile in the emotionless drones.

PDU-084 wouldn't fall quite so easily though. However in heads-up poker, Captain Herc was an even more formidable opponent. Calling him, regardless of it he was bluffing would come at a cost.

The two went back and forth hand after hand. The chip leader changing to Herc and then back to PDU-084, then back again. Neither was giving up ground. Eventually Herc got a lucky turn on the river and scooped up a big pot, his lead was huge. But it wasn't insurmountable. PDU-084 tried to keep up, folding when needed to not let Herc strong-arm him.

But who won you might ask? The Golden Team and Polo drones for bonding over the activity.

Oh you wanted the real answer? Well PDU-084 tried its hardest, but Herc's aggressive play style along with the blind bets wore the drone down. Eventually it had to go all in and it failed to pull out a victory against the muscular, studly Captain Hercules.

Want to bond with the bros and polo drones? Or interested in learning more?

Disventure Camp All Stars Power Ranking (Round "5")

Hey everybody! So, I've recently gotten into Disventure Camp, just in time to catch the third season near its beginning. As it's been occupying a good chunk of my brain activity for the past couple of weeks, I've really wanted to write something about it just to let some of the brain worms out. Coincidentally, I also started watching Gordon Holmes' Survivor Power Ranking series as season 46 has been airing (although I've watched Survivor since I was a kid), and really enjoyed the format and the questions it incited. So, I figured, why not mash them up?

The Power Ranking format is essentially a way of ranking how well each player is doing in the game. So, in essence, this is a long form way of predicting who I think will be eliminated from the competition in the next episode. If that sounds interesting, I invite you to read on!

Alright, now that we've made it past the Read More, I'll explain the game in a bit more detail, given that this is the first time I'm posting a "theory" like this. (It's "Round 5" because this is off the heels of the 5th episode, but there are no power rankings prior to this one.) The way Gordon's Power Rankings work, you rank each player not based on how likely they are to win overall, but how likely they are to survive the next episode. For the sake of example, let's say I've ranked Kristal as #1 (least likely to go home), Derek as #2, Trevor as #3, Emily as #4, and Oliver as #5 (most likely to go home). When the next episode comes out, you go back and lock in the score of the person who was eliminated. So, back to our example, if it's Derek who winds up going home, then I get 2 points. Bigger scores are better, so, as you can see, it would have been better if I'd ranked Derek lower. Derek's score is the only one that matters for the week, so the rest of my placements don't factor into my score at all.

This format makes more sense when you can compare your score against someone else's (as what happens in Gordon's videos). But, I still think it's a fun format to use, and it'll be interesting to me to see if I perform better or worse than average at the end of the season. Also, if anyone wants to make their own version of the power ranking and fight me, I'd love to see that! (You don't have to write as much as I will, if you don't want to.) I'm actively trying to mansplain manipulate malewife my way into convincing people to watch this show, so the more the merrier in analysis land.

Although I will be making some of the same analytical remarks that Gordon and co. do for the Survivor season, I want to point out that I will be actively acknowledging that Disventure Camp is a work of fiction. Both Survivor and DC create an "edit" by budgeting their screen time towards specific characters and plot lines, so both can be analyzed in that way. However, Survivor is a story constructed in retrospect, based on the reality of who happened to win the game. DC has been a fictional story since the very beginning, and therefore an episode of the cartoon may be more... "controlled" than an episode of Reality TV. For instance, Survivor players irl might not manage to keep all of their tribes at roughly the same number of people, but Odd Nation Cartoons may have built the season in a way that doesn't eradicate one team of All Stars at the very start.

I bring this up because, for this week in particular, I think that a character originating from Season 1 will likely be packing their bags. We've had four eliminations so far, one from the Season 1 cast (Miriam) and three from the Season 2 cast (James, Lake, and Hunter). Given that both casts started out with 9 competitors, this means that 33% of the Season 2 cast is already gone. I don't think it's impossible that a Season 2 character could be eliminated this week, but I'm definitely inclined to believe that it'll be a season 1 character that bites the dust.

Also, as the contestants on Gordon's show are able to use the "Next Time on Survivor" segment in their analyses, I think that using the trailer for next episode is entirely fair game! Spoilers for the Episode 6 trailer, if you're trying to ignore that. I don't know how much I'm going to reference it, but it'll probably be at least a little bit.

With that out of the way, let's start with the character who I think is the least likely to go home!

#1: Tess

Tess is in a really good position right now as the Cyan Team's swing vote. Aiden will want to take out Ellie as a member of the villains alliance and the one behind Lake's elimination. While it's unknown how much stock Ellie will continue to place in the girls' alliance, she still sees Tess as her friend, and therefore the best option to reach out to for a third vote to take out Aiden or Tom. Therefore, neither Aiden and Tom nor Ellie and Gabby should be looking to eliminate her.

I also feel like they're going to want to have Tess reunite with Ally at the merge, which is another reason why she might stick around. Then again, I might've thought the same of Hunter, and we saw how that went for him last episode. Still, as both Tess and Ally's characterizations revolved around Hunter in Season 2, I at least have interest in seeing how the two girls would progress without their collective crush around.

And, on top of all that, Tess is a Season 2 character. I find it very hard to believe that Tess will be eliminated next episode.

#2: Aiden

Alright, this choice is definitely leaning more on the meta side than the gameplay side. Gameplay wise, if Tess decided to side with Ellie and Gabby, it could be very easy for Aiden to be the target of their votes. But, I just don't think that Odd Nation Cartoons would want to eliminate Aiden at this point in the competition. The man is a fan favorite!

Of course, that was true of James as well... but, that only furthers my point. Given that James and Lake have already been eliminated from the competition, getting rid of Aiden would wipe that entire friend group of characters out. In my opinion, it would be odd for Aiden to have that confessional about playing for James, Lake, and himself, only to be eliminated three episodes after Lake. Aiden is also still a major plot point in the Jake/Tom romance that I think they'll want to keep around for a little longer.

Also, if the theory that James will return to the competition at some point (because he hasn't had a "reading the patrons names" segment yet) turns out to be true, I suspect that they'd want Aiden to still be in the competition for his return. Aiden should be safe.

#3: Jake

You know who else is a part of the Jake/Tom plotline? Jake. I don't think our favorite(?) whiny idiot has his head on the chopping block right now, despite being a S1 character.

Although, Jake's safety is actually mostly not a meta read. I just straight up think that his elimination would be the most baffling on the Magenta Team. Ally could go home if the Jake/Ashley/Fiore alliance decides to finish what they started when they eliminated Hunter. Fiore could go home if, now that the couple has been split up, Jake and Ashley unite with Ally to take out one of the villains. Even if Ally and Fiore somehow had the power to band together and use a totem or something to send one of Jake or Ashley home... I still think it would be Ashley. That's partially based on meta logic of considering Jake a more important character than Ashley, but there are in-universe reasons why they might choose to eliminate Ashley over Jake, too. For Fiore's sake, Ashley has more of a vendetta against her specifically. Ashley is also an athletic and friendly person who could situate herself very well if she made the merge, whereas Jake (who's already demoralized at Miriam's exit) would likely only incite more conflict and use his vote in petty ways. (Sorry to Jake fans lol, I'm kinda slandering your boy.)

Anyways, any other Magenta elimination makes more sense to me than Jake, so I think he's pretty safe.

#4: Tom

Rounding out the Jake/Tom/Aiden love triangle, we have Tom at #4. It's a lot of what I've already covered with Jake and Aiden. There's so much drama yet to be had with this trio that knocking down one of its legs (specifically, the central leg) at this point feels like a loss. Also, I really don't understand why the Cyan girls would choose to eliminate Tom instead of Aiden, which means I'm basically predicting that both of the Cyan boys are safe. That includes Tom, so, good for him!

#5: Ally

And once again, we're looping back to a prior entry. For Tess to reunite with Ally at the merge, Ally has to make it there, too. So, despite her boyfriend's fate, I think Ally will be sticking around for a little while longer.

It's a bit counterintuitive, but I sort of think that Ally will stay because it would be too obvious if she went home. Jake, Ashley, and Fiore eliminating Ally in a 3-1 vote is exactly what you would predict would happen looking at the tribe on the surface. So, for the sake of intrigue, I feel like something would happen to prevent it. In the preview, we see her having one-on-one conversations with Ashley and Jake, so maybe they would feel bad for her and decide to flip on Fiore. Maybe Ally could pull an epic gamer move and find an idol to play on herself. That could be in conjunction with Fiore and her connections to the villains alliance, or it could not.

Tess, Aiden, Jake, and Tom I was pretty confident about, so Ally is the first entry where I'm a little worried putting her this high. But, I have faith in her (especially as a S2 character) to not get the boot in this upcoming episode.

#6: Fiore

This might just be the Fiore stan in me, but I don't think she'll be going home next episode. I mean, she's literally been blessed by the gods! What am I supposed to do against that?

Fiore is in a pretty decent position, being allied with Jake and Ashley while also being on pretty decent terms with Ally. She's also just, like, way smarter than the majority of the competition, so if she found herself in a tight spot, I could see her manipulating someone to weasel her way out of it. Fiore is also a potential winner pick of mine (again, I'm a Fiore stan), and her elimination at this stage could prevent her from making the deep run that would result in her return to the Final 2.

Despite all of this-- and this is a slight aside-- I actually think that Jake and Ashley may have made a mistake in eliminating Hunter over Fiore last episode? They said it was better for their strategy, but I don't think that's necessarily true. It would be a good move for their strategy if they could count on Fiore being a solid alliance member at the merge, but it's pretty obvious she has no allegiance to the S1 duo. She literally already has an alliance-- the villains alliance-- that she would most likely bail to if she makes it to the merge. If Jake, Ashley, Hunter, and Ally all voted to eliminate Fiore, they could diminish the threat of the villains alliance and put their own feud on pause. If Hunter is correct, and getting rid of Fiore prevents them from losing any more challenges, than the feud never has to be unpaused, and all four of them make the merge. The only way that Jake and Ashley could run into trouble is if Magenta does have to go back to Tribal as a foursome. Then, it could be problematic for them if they were forced to turn on each other at Hunter and Ally's whim, because the couple (who were already fighting with each other!!!) could be unwilling to turn on one another, preferring to leave things to chance.

It feels like the narrative has already saved Fiore twice-- once via Alec and once via Jake and Ashley's "strategy"-- so I believe that the narrative has greater plans for Fiore yet. It could be reuniting with Alec. Who knows? (Please be reuniting with Alec. Please be reuniting with Alec--)

#7: Ashley

Um... so I just straight up don't think that Magenta is headed back to Tribal next episode. Surprise!

Like I said, these predictions are just about the next episode. And, given that Magenta just went to Tribal and is low on numbers, I don't think that they'll be headed back there. Therefore, none of them would be next episode's boot.

It's not a given, as the Purple Tribe got pretty demolished in S1, but for an All Stars season, I don't think Odd Nation would want the eliminations to be so unfairly stacked in one direction. I could be making an incorrect call here, because, logically, I really don't know why the Magenta Team would be any good at the musical challenge that's shown in the preview...? I just believe in them, I guess. You can retroactively apply this same reasoning for bonus points on Jake, Ally, and Fiore's entries as well.

Anyways, Ashley! Out of the Magenta Team, I do feel like she's the most expendable, perhaps because she was the earliest elimination from S1, and came back without most of her allies from S1 (Will, Lill, Nick). We also already got the resolution to the fire plotline that was left dangling in S1, which means there aren't many more questions I have about her character.

On the other hand, why bring Ashley back if you didn't have bigger plans for her this time around? They've eliminated a lot of people who made it close to the end at the beginning this time, so it would stand to reason that some of the people who were eliminated closer to the beginning might make it closer to the end. The potential of Ashley bonding with some of the S2 competitors at the merge is great for bringing some new iconic relationships to life.

Even if I think Ashley may be the most expendable, I don't really think that any of the Magenta players are narratively expendable, which is why I placed them all so high. I'll be eating my words if they're headed to Tribal next time, so these guys had better rock on at the immunity challenge!

#8: Riya

And now, for Magenta's counterpart, a team composed of people that I feel like all have an argument for leaving sooner rather than later... the Yellow Team.

I don't remember if it was on YouTube or Tumblr, but I recall seeing someone theorize that Riya might be the next boot because of how much she's annoying her team. She's pushed Connor away, stirred up drama with Yul, and is shown hogging the team's shower in the episode preview. It would make sense if Riya's selfish and villainous actions led to her downfall, so, at first, I liked this logic, and planned to put Riya near the bottom.

However, when I actually started counting votes... I just didn't see it. Even if Connor and Riya's relationship is strained, I don't know if he would be willing to eliminate someone he cares about. Yul believes that Connor voted for him last time, so he'll probably be out to take revenge on Connor. Grett, at this point, would most likely vote with him. Alec too, as long as he lets his strategy of keeping the villains team in power beat out the friendship he's begun to form with Connor. Where are the Riya votes? I'm not really sure.

I think that the theorizer is on the right track with predicting that Riya's bad attitude will eventually lead to her elimination. However, I don't think she'll be off the Yellow Team just yet, so she lands at #8 for me.

#9: Connor

Counting votes made it seem like Connor would be the next boot from the Yellow Team... so why do I have him as the second least likely to go?

Well, much like Ally, I feel that Connor's elimination is so obvious that it wouldn't pan out that way if a Yellow Tribal actually happened. There are definite cracks in the seams that could lead to votes not going in an obvious direction-- with Miriam's blow to the alliance, Alec might see Connor as a better confidant than any of the villains, and/or Grett might see what a terrible boyfriend Yul is and decide to flip on the villains. We also don't know exactly how Riya feels. She certainly acts as if she doesn't care if Connor stays or goes, but the truth is that she hasn't actually been "forced" to vote for him yet by her alliance. If push came to shove, who knows what she'd choose?

Combined with the fact that he (and Riya) are S2 characters, I think Connor would manage to survive a vote if Yellow is headed to Tribal. I'm not that confident about it, though, so he lands at #9.

#10: Yul

And here's Yul, our lowest placed S2 competitor in this ranking. If a S2 character is headed home this week, I think it would probably be him. He was a terrible person in S2, and has continued to be a terrible person in All Stars, so it's easy to see why the players (and the audience) might want him out of the game. Grett, my beloved, please lead the charge in kicking this asshole off the tribe.

However... there's also evidence to suggest that Yul won't be going home so easily. Beyond just being a S2 character, the end of this episode (and part of the preview) established that Yul has some sort of connection with Emily, our mysterious new staff member. I don't know exactly what this relationship is-- my original guess was that Emily could be Yul's manager, but their interactions in Episode 1 (as well as Grett's interactions with Emily in Episode 1) make me feel like that wouldn't be the case. Regardless, there's something going on between him and Emily, which adds some intrigue to Yul's character.

I have also considered that this relationship with Emily might be a one-episode thing, an interaction that actually spells doom for Yul instead of longevity. However, as this is one of the first major things we've seen Emily do, I feel like her connection to Yul may be a major aspect of her character and even why she exists. If that's the case, Yul may be quite important to the season, and be set up to make a very deep run.

However, my uncertainty on why Emily has summoned Yul and belief that the Yellow Team has good reason to eliminate him prevents him from taking one of the top spots. ...There's still a good amount of space below him, though.

#11: Gabby

A good part of why Gabby is ranked this low is because she's a S1 character, I'm not gonna lie. But I do genuinely believe she could be in trouble next episode, and here's why.

As opposed to S1, in which she was a staunch defender of the environment, insecure and petty, and a little bit insane, Gabby's character in All Stars seems to have been simplified to "Ellie's peppy girlfriend." She did refuse to eat the chicken last episode, but I feel like S1 Gabby would have, like, threatened to take their heads off if they beheaded the chicken. The portion of the preview for next episode where Gabby has the crazy eyes makes me hopeful that that aspect of her character will be making a comeback, but we'll have to see what happens.

For now, her role has been pretty limited, which makes me think that she could be an early boot from the season. She doesn't seem to have any new plot threads introduced, new developments in her character as a result of what happened in S1, or important relationships, other than with Ellie. If she were eliminated next episode, that could be because Gabby is in little enough of the show that there wasn't enough time to give her a proper character arc.

The reasons behind why the Tribe (presumably minus Ellie) would unite to eliminate Gabby are a little fuzzy, but not completely implausible. If Gabby were to be eliminated, I think it would be as a blow to Ellie, getting rid of her closest ally. That could tie in to why so much of her characterization this season has been linked to Ellie-- if being in a relationship with Ellie is the reason why Gabby is eliminated, then that's all we need to know about her in All Stars.

#12: Alec

Oh Alec... I hope you make it out of this episode alive.

This may come as a surprise to some people, as I've seen speculations that Alec may be set up to be the season's main villain. However, I'm worried that his strong entrance may be a front intended to get him some screen time before he exits the competition shockingly early.

You see, while Alec is currently the mastermind of the Yellow Team, it's a rather precarious position to be in. The villains alliance seems to have remained stable enough to near-unanimously take out Miriam last time they went to Tribal (even though Riya didn't wind up voting for Miriam, she was conceptually fine with it). However, I doubt that Miriam's silver "Alec is untrustworthy" bullet will go unused. If Alec attempts to push his luck by trying to force people into votes they don't want to make, or if his friendship with Connor causes others on the team to suspect that he's playing both sides, the alliance could revolt against its leader.

I still think that Alec will probably survive until the merge, just so that we can see his relationship with Fiore evolve further. Who knows, maybe he really is the season's main villain, and will finally make it to the final 3 he feels he was robbed of in S1. However, I think that Alec's vote could be a reasonable blindside on the audience, which makes me worry that it's the right narrative move to take.

#13: Grett

Oh Grett... I'm even more worried about you than Alec. Clearly. Because you're directly beneath him.

Look, I really want to believe that Grett will be able to stand up for herself this season and absolutely demolish Yul, getting to play the rest of her game after his departure in whichever way she sees fit. However, sometimes the villains have to win in order to create stakes, and I could see a temporary Yul-over-Grett victory doing just that.

An unfortunate step in her journey to becoming a better person, Grett has totally tethered herself to Yul, a relationship in which she seems far more invested than he. As opposed to her bossy demeanor in S1, she's taken too many steps back, and seems to automatically yield to whatever Yul has to say. Her characterization this season is very linked to his presence, which makes me wonder what she would do if he left the show. She could go align with the villains alliance herself, but... is she really that much of a villain anymore without Yul?

And, that's part of the problem. I can very easily see a plot line where, next episode, Yul continues to put Grett down, and does so increasingly after Yellow loses the challenge. Grett finally musters some of her old courage and lashes back at Yul a little, saying that it's not her fault that they lost. Then, Yul reports to Alec and Riya that Grett tried to backstab him, and doesn't want to work with the villains anymore. Alec and Riya, who both didn't really want to vote for Connor anyways, agree to take out Grett to 1) split up a potentially problematic duo and 2) make their alliance look like it's weakened. Grett goes home with a broken heart, but has at least learned that she shouldn't stand by Yul any longer. Maybe she could get some revenge from beyond the grave later on in the season somehow, like cancelling him during the finale or something like that.

Really, the biggest flaw I can see is that... I don't know if Yellow is going to be losing the immunity challenge. Part of their performance was in the preview for next episode, and it looked pretty good! I feel like Odd Nation Cartoons wanted to show us something super cool to get us hyped for the next episode, so getting us really excited over the team that turns out to be the losers would be a little confusing. Who knows, maybe there could be some level of sabotage for the Yellow Team that causes their otherwise excellent performance to fail.

I don't know if I would have come to the conclusion of Grett being a possible boot if I didn't think a S1 character was going home... but now that I have, I'm afraid that I've seen the writing on the wall.

#14: Ellie

And yet, Grett is not in last place, because Ellie is.

Call it a gut feeling, but I kinda get the vibes that Ellie might be the season's next boot. It doesn't make sense, right? Ellie has strong relationships with so many characters, from Tess to Alec to Jake. She, too, could be in contention for the title of season villain. Why would they get rid of her so early?

Well, much like Alec, I fear she may have been too villainous too fast. Her negative connections to so many different characters leads to it making a lot of sense to vote Ellie for a lot of reasons. Does Tom want to get revenge for his and Jake's breakup last season? Vote Ellie. Does Aiden want to avenge Lake and keep himself and Tom in the game? Vote Ellie. Does Tess want to decrease the numbers of the villains alliance? Vote Ellie. That's three votes for Ellie, and Ellie is eliminated. I don't even think she would be saved by a totem, given that Ellie has already been saved by a totem once before, and it would be kind of repetitive for Gabby and Ellie to do that again.

Now, you could argue that eliminating Ellie here would cause the same problems for Gabby as it would eliminating Yul for Grett. I struggled to see what Grett would do in the game if Yul was eliminated. Wouldn't Gabby be the same, after I detailed why I thought her character had been simplified to be tied to Ellie?

Not exactly. A post-Yul Grett confuses me a little because I think that getting rid of Yul would uplift Grett. It would remove the struggles that her character is facing, and leave her characterization less complex for it. On the other hand, a post-Ellie Gabby makes sense because getting rid of Ellie would create more problems for Gabby. Once again, she would have been stabbed in the back by her tribemates (including Tom and Tess, who she considers friends), but not even have Ellie or a totem to lean back on this time. She might want to burn her tribemates to the ground, but if she acts up too much, she could be next in line. And despite her desire for revenge, she would have to wonder... who was really the bad guy in the elimination, her tribemates or her girlfriend?

I think it's possible that Gabby's character may have been simplified for now because the inciting incident of Gabby's All Stars characterization is Ellie's elimination. Prior to that episode, we establish how much Gabby cares about Ellie, so that when Ellie exits, we feel how much it hurts Gabby. We've seen how Ellie acts after Gabby was eliminated before, so I think it would be far more interesting to see the opposite in All Stars. Also, Ellie has made it to the final before-- twice, if you count the original "Adventure Camp" season-- so it would make sense if, this time, she was kicked out closer to the beginning.

Much like with Grett, the main issue I have here is that I don't know if the Cyan Team would lose this competition, either. They have a lot of artistic people on their team, which makes it seem like they would thrive. However, if Cyan isn't losing, and Yellow isn't losing, that would mean that Magenta is losing, and I've already said why I don't think Magenta is going to lose. So, maybe Cyan is overconfident in their performance, or maybe another team (Magenta?) tries to sabotage them so that the team can take out Ellie (or Aiden, if it's Jake's idea). Maybe the performance has to be a rock song, and the Cyan team is all really bad singers. (Okay I just learned that apparently Aiden's VA is a very talented singer. Maybe Aiden won't sing or something.) I don't have enough details yet.

And, that's the end! I've never done a power ranking before-- not even for Survivor, which I've been watching for years, as opposed to Disventure Camp's "less than one month"-- so I have no idea how well I'll do. Are my instincts good, or are my expectations and the writers' decisions worlds apart? I guess I'll have to see when the next episode airs, and create my round 6 predictions accordingly. Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoyed this new project of mine!

Playoff Predictions Based on Current Form in the PSL 2025

As the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 enters its crucial final stretch, the playoff picture is beginning to take shape. With most teams having played a significant portion of their league matches, trends have emerged, and the form guide is providing some strong indicators as to who might advance to the final four.

Though nothing is certain in the unpredictable world of T20 cricket, let’s take a closer look at the teams and analyze their playoff chances based on current form, momentum, and performances so far.

1. Quetta Gladiators – Strongest Contenders

Quetta Gladiators have emerged as the most consistent and dominant team in PSL 2025 so far. Their explosive batting lineup, led by Rilee Rossouw and Jason Roy, has been dismantling bowling attacks for fun. But it’s not just their batting — their bowlers have chipped in with regular breakthroughs and controlled the death overs well.

Quetta currently sits at the top of the points table, and with their balanced squad and winning momentum, they seem destined not only for the playoffs but perhaps even a direct entry into the final via Qualifier 1. Unless there’s an unexpected collapse, they look like a lock for the top two.

2. Islamabad United – Peaking at the Right Time

Islamabad United have had a few hiccups along the way, but they’ve found form when it matters most. With five wins under their belt and a positive net run rate, they’ve shown that their lineup is capable of handling pressure. The leadership of Shadab Khan has been calm and effective, and the team has discovered several match-winners, particularly in their middle order.

United’s recent performances suggest they are hitting peak form as the league progresses. If they maintain this trajectory, they should comfortably make it into the top four, with a realistic chance of finishing in the top two.

3. Karachi Kings – Steady but Not Flashy

Karachi Kings have gone under the radar this season. They aren’t blowing teams away with dominance, but they’re getting the job done. Their combination of experienced campaigners and young talent has been working well. Their bowlers have kept them in games even when their batters didn’t fully capitalize.

With five wins so far and a decent net run rate, Karachi looks well-placed to secure a playoff berth. They may not enter as favorites, but their ability to grind out results makes them a dangerous side come the knockout stage.

4. Lahore Qalandars – Fighting for Consistency

Lahore Qalandars have shown flashes of brilliance this season, but inconsistency continues to haunt them. On days when their bowlers fire — especially Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf — they look like world-beaters. However, their batting has been hit-or-miss, with too much dependence on individual efforts.

With four wins to their name and a superior net run rate compared to some rivals, Lahore still has a fighting chance. If they win their remaining matches and fix their middle-order issues, they can squeeze into the top four. But it won’t be easy — every match ahead is a virtual knockout.

5. Peshawar Zalmi – In the Danger Zone

Peshawar Zalmi have been inconsistent and unpredictable. While they’ve pulled off a couple of impressive wins, they’ve also lost games they should’ve won. Their bowling attack lacks bite, and their batting is overly reliant on top-order contributions.

With only a few wins and a slightly negative net run rate, Zalmi’s playoff hopes are hanging by a thread. They’ll need to win nearly all their remaining fixtures and hope for favorable results elsewhere to keep their campaign alive.

6. Multan Sultans – All but Out

Multan Sultans, surprisingly, find themselves at the bottom of the table. Despite having a few talented players, their inability to perform under pressure has been their downfall. With just a solitary win and a poor net run rate, they’re virtually out of the playoff race.

Even if they win all their remaining games, it might not be enough. For Multan, this season has been a lesson in missed opportunities and inconsistency.

Final Prediction

If current form holds, the likely playoff contenders are Quetta Gladiators, Islamabad United, Karachi Kings, and Lahore Qalandars. Quetta and Islamabad are favorites for the top two spots, giving them two shots at making the final. But as always in T20 cricket, one great performance — or one poor game — can change everything. The battle for the playoffs is heating up, and the drama is far from over.

51 Game — Explore Fun Gaming

What does the 51 Game mean?

The “51 Game” is a turn-based strategy game that requires players to outwit each other. Follow strict rules to score as close to 51 points as possible. In high-stakes tournaments or with friends, the goal is to reach 51 points while preventing your opponent from doing so.

The game’s simple rules hide its complexity. Tactics and opponent playstyle determine success.

How to Start: 51 Game Lottery Basics

Before learning advanced strategies, you must master the basics. To reach 51 points without exceeding it, players take turns selecting cards. While planning your moves, watch your opponent’s score.

Important Considerations:

Understanding the point system is essential. Strategic planning keeps you under 51 points because cards have different values.

Always know your opponent’s score. You can anticipate and counter their strategy by knowing their moves.

Card Management: Don’t play high-value cards early. Save them for when they’ll have the most impact.

The Value of Strategic Thinking

Winning the “51 Game Lottery” requires thinking ahead, not just making moves. The game rewards players who can predict and respond to their opponents. A delicate balance of calculation and intuition.

Expect Your Opponent’s Moves

Predicting your opponent’s actions is a key strategy in the “51 Game”. You can predict their next move by observing their tendencies and past plays. You can block their progress or profit from their mistakes.

Learn Bluffing

Though counterintuitive, bluffing helps win the “ 51 Game.” You can surprise your opponent by making them think you’re making a weak move when you’re setting up for a big score. Bluffing makes your opponent make snap decisions, which usually benefits you.

Ideal Card Play

Knowing when to play your best cards is crucial. New players often waste high-value cards, leaving them defenseless later. Instead, save those cards for last when your opponent is least expecting it. Timing matters.

Advanced 51-Game Control Strategies

After mastering the basics, level up your gameplay. Intelligent observation, tactical foresight, and psychological warfare are needed for advanced strategies.

Card counting

A sophisticated but effective method is card counting. Keeping track of played cards helps you predict your opponent’s remaining cards. This may help you decide what to do next.

Moderate Risk-Taking

Certain players are too cautious, while others are too reckless. The best approach balances calculated risks with safe play. When the point total is near 51, think carefully before acting.

Matching Your Opponent’s Playstyle

All players have unique styles. Some aggressively try to reach 51 quickly, while others play defensively, keeping their points low and forcing you to overplay. You must adapt to your opponent’s strategy and play accordingly to win consistently.

Against a defensive opponent, you may need to press the attack and take calculated risks. Turn their aggression against them by setting traps and letting them overplay their hand.

How to Avoid Common Errors

Experienced players can make costly mistakes. Knowing and avoiding these mistakes can make or break a game.

1. Overplaying Strong Cards

As mentioned, playing high-value cards early is a common mistake. You can change the game by saving your strongest cards for crucial moments.

2. Ignoring Opponent Score

Some players only care about their score, ignoring their opponent. Keep an eye on your opponent’s score to avoid them reaching 51 before you.

3. Underestimating Patience

The “51 Game” requires patience. Pushing for 51 points can lead to bad decisions and calculations. Slow down, analyze the board, and move carefully.

Continuous Improvement Tips from Experts

To master the “ 51 Game,” you must practice and keep up with the latest strategies. Tips from experts to stay ahead of the competition:

1. Practice often

Playing more will help you spot patterns and predict your opponent’s moves. To expand your strategic repertoire, challenge players of different skill levels regularly.

2. Learn from Losses

Every loss is a learning experience. After each game, evaluate your mistakes and consider how you could have played better. This reflection will make you a better player.

3. Stay Calm Under Pressure

High-stakes games are stressful, but the best players stay calm. Don’t let a few mistakes derail your game.

Conclusion: Win the 51 Game and Win Big

Strategic thinking, patience, and adaptability are needed to win the “51 Game”. Following this guide’s strategies and tips will help you become a top player. Success requires continuous improvement — learn from your mistakes, study your opponent, and keep improving.

Understanding the odds and probability in Hariom Lottery

When it comes to playing the Hariom Lottery, it's essential to have a clear understanding of the odds and probability. The odds of winning the lottery may seem daunting, but by understanding how they work, you can make informed decisions that increase your chances of winning. The first step is to familiarize yourself with the different types of lottery games available and their specific odds. Each game has its own set of rules and probabilities, so it's crucial to do your research and choose the game that offers the best odds for you. Once you've selected a game, take the time to study the odds and assess the likelihood of winning the jackpot. Remember, the higher the odds, the more challenging it is to win, but the potential payout may also be more significant. By understanding the odds, you can set realistic expectations and make strategic choices that give you a competitive advantage.

It's worth noting that while probability plays a significant role in the lottery, there are no guarantees. Every ticket you purchase has an equal chance of winning, regardless of past results or patterns. However, by understanding the odds, you can make informed decisions that increase your chances of winning. Remember, the lottery is a game of chance, and there is no foolproof method for predicting the winning numbers. It's essential to approach it with a sense of fun and excitement, rather than relying solely on winning. By understanding the odds and probability, you can enjoy the lottery experience while maximizing your chances of hitting the jackpot.

Insider tips for selecting winning numbers

Selecting the right numbers is a crucial step in maximizing your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery. While there is no surefire way to predict the winning numbers, several strategies can help increase your odds. One approach is to analyze past winning numbers and look for patterns or trends. Some players believe that certain numbers occur more frequently than others and may be more likely to appear in future draws. By studying past results, you can identify these patterns and make educated guesses when selecting your numbers. Another strategy is to choose a mix of both high and low numbers. Many lottery games draw numbers from a specific range, so by selecting a combination of high and low numbers, you increase your chances of having the winning combination. It's also essential to avoid common number combinations, such as birthdays or anniversaries, as these are often chosen by many players, reducing your odds of winning. Instead, consider selecting numbers that have personal significance to you or using a random number generator to ensure a truly random selection. Remember, the key is to have fun and enjoy the process, so don't put too much pressure on yourself to choose the perfect numbers.

It's also worth considering playing with multiple tickets or joining a lottery syndicate. By purchasing multiple tickets or pooling your resources with other players, you increase your chances of winning. Syndicates allow you to buy more tickets collectively, increasing your overall chances without breaking the bank. However, it's essential to choose a reputable syndicate and establish clear guidelines for sharing any winnings. Whether you choose to play solo or with a group, selecting the right numbers is a mix of strategy, intuition, and luck. Experiment with different approaches and find what works best for you. Remember, the lottery is a game of chance, and there are no guarantees, but by utilizing these insider tips, you can maximize your chances of winning.

Strategies for increasing your chances of winning

While winning the Hariom Lottery ultimately comes down to luck, there are several strategies you can employ to increase your chances of winning. One strategy is to play consistently and regularly. By purchasing tickets for every draw, you increase your chances of hitting the jackpot. Many lottery winners have attested to the power of persistence. Another strategy is to consider playing less popular games or draws. While the odds may be slightly higher, the competition is often lower. By focusing on these less popular games, your chances of winning may increase. Additionally, it's crucial to play within your budget. Set a specific amount that you are comfortable spending on lottery tickets and stick to it. Managing your finances effectively ensures that you can enjoy the lottery without putting yourself at financial risk. Finally, don't be afraid to seek out expert advice or consult with professional lottery players. There are numerous resources available online and offline that can provide valuable insights and strategies for increasing your chances of winning. Remember, while these strategies may improve your odds, winning the lottery is never guaranteed. Approach the game with a sense of fun and excitement rather than relying solely on winning. By implementing these strategies, you can maximize your chances and make the most of your lottery experience.

The importance of budgeting and managing your lottery expenses

When playing the Hariom Lottery, it's crucial to establish a budget and manage your expenses effectively. While the allure of winning big can be tempting, it's essential to approach the lottery responsibly and avoid overspending. Start by setting a specific amount that you are comfortable spending on lottery tickets each month. This will help you avoid any financial strain and ensure that you can enjoy the lottery without jeopardizing your financial well-being. Additionally, consider keeping a record of your expenses and winnings. This will help you track your spending habits and assess whether you are staying within your budget. It's crucial to prioritize responsible gambling and ensure that lottery playing remains a fun and enjoyable experience. If you find yourself struggling with budgeting or gambling, seek support from counseling services or organizations dedicated to responsible gambling. Remember, playing the lottery should be a form of entertainment, and responsible budgeting is key to maintaining a healthy relationship with the game.

Staying informed about upcoming draws and special promotions

To maximize your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery, it's essential to stay informed about upcoming draws and special promotions. Many lotteries offer special promotions or bonuses that can significantly increase your odds of winning. By keeping an eye on these promotions and participating in them, you give yourself an extra chance to hit the jackpot. Additionally, staying informed about upcoming draws allows you to plan and strategize your playing accordingly. Many lotteries have specific draw schedules, and by knowing when the draws take place, you can ensure that you never miss an opportunity to play. Utilize lottery websites, social media channels, and mobile applications to stay up to date with the latest news and information. By staying informed, you can take advantage of any opportunities that arise and increase your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery.

Common mistakes to avoid when playing Hariom Lottery

When playing the Hariom Lottery, it's crucial to avoid common mistakes that can hinder your chances of winning. One common mistake is failing to check your tickets regularly. Many players forget to check their tickets or discard them before realizing they have won a prize. Make it a habit to check the winning numbers after each draw and keep your tickets in a safe place. Another mistake is not claiming your winnings promptly. Many lottery prizes have expiration dates, and if you fail to claim your prize within the specified time frame, you may lose out on your winnings. Stay organized and ensure that you follow the necessary steps to claim your prize. It's also essential to avoid falling into the trap of purchasing more tickets than you can afford. While it can be tempting to increase your chances by buying additional tickets, it's crucial to stay within your budget and gamble responsibly. Finally, don't fall for lottery scams or fraudulent activities. Be cautious of anyone claiming to have a guaranteed winning method or requesting payment to secure your prize. Legitimate lotteries will never ask for money upfront or make promises of certain winnings. Stay vigilant and protect yourself from scams. By avoiding these common mistakes, you can maximize your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery and enjoy the game responsibly.

Syndicates and group play options for maximizing your chances

If you're looking to maximize your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery, consider joining a syndicate or participating in group play options. Syndicates are groups of players who pool their resources to purchase a larger number of tickets. By playing with more tickets, you increase your chances of winning without breaking the bank. Syndicates offer a cost-effective way to improve your odds and maximize your chances of hitting the jackpot. Many lotteries also offer group play options, where you can play with friends, family, or coworkers. Group play allows you to share the cost of tickets while increasing your overall chances of winning. However, it's crucial to establish clear guidelines and agreements when participating in syndicates or group play. Define how winnings will be divided and ensure that everyone is on the same page. By joining a syndicate or participating in group play, you can increase your chances of winning the Hariom Lottery and share the excitement with others.

How to claim your winnings and handle taxes

Congratulations! You've won the Hariom Lottery. Now, it's essential to know how to claim your winnings and handle taxes. Each lottery has specific rules and procedures for claiming prizes, so it's crucial to familiarize yourself with these guidelines. Typically, smaller prizes can be claimed at authorized retailers, while larger prizes may require you to visit a lottery office or contact the lottery directly. It's important to follow the instructions provided by the lottery to ensure a smooth and hassle-free claiming process. Additionally, it's crucial to understand the tax implications of winning the lottery. Lottery winnings are generally subject to taxes, and the specific tax rate may vary depending on your jurisdiction. Consult with a tax professional or financial advisor to understand your tax obligations and plan accordingly. By being aware of the claiming process and understanding the tax implications, you can enjoy your winnings and make the most of your lottery success.

Conclusion  

In conclusion, winning the Hariom Lottery is a dream for many, and with the right strategies and insider tips, you can maximize your chances of hitting the jackpot. By understanding the odds and probability, selecting winning numbers strategically, implementing effective strategies, and managing your budget responsibly, you can tilt the odds in your favor. Stay informed about upcoming draws and special promotions, avoid common mistakes, consider syndicates and group play options, and know how to claim your winnings and handle taxes. Remember, winning the lottery is never guaranteed, and it's essential to approach the game with a sense of fun and excitement.

Disventure Camp All Stars Power Ranking (Round 17)

Episode 18, the last episode before the true finale begins (presumably)! As we seemingly walk down memory lane, will the cards play out as expected? Or will we be blindsided yet again?

In case you haven't seen my previous power rankings, the Power Ranking Format is essentially a way of ranking how well each player is doing in the game. So, in essence, this is a long form way of predicting who I think will be eliminated from the competition in the next episode. There will be spoilers for last week's episode (obviously) and its power ranking, so make sure to read that first if you don't want to be spoiled on how I ranked our last boot. If you want more clarification on the rules, that first post will help you out as well. Furthermore, I'm going to be spoiling the preview for next episode, so if you want to go in TOTALLY blind, save this for later. Let's go!

Recap - Grett's Elimination

Current Score: 74 acquired/109 total

(Points versus @venus-is-thinking: 25 acquired/34 total)

Howwww was it not Riya?

Well, at the very least, I seem to have a talent for choosing who Riya's meat shield will be and correctly putting them right behind her in the rankings. But, wait, for the sake of that metaphor, shouldn't they be in front of her? Either way, Riya is causing others to take damage to fuel her success, which was directly portrayed in last week's episode.

Anyways, Grett. Absolutely one of the highlights of the season, even if it became pretty obvious to me that she wouldn't be making it to the absolute endgame. I'd expected it to be Riya in Episode 17, followed by Grett in Episode 18, but it makes enough sense to me that it could be flipped the other way a--

HEY, WAIT!

SPOILERS FOR MY OWN POWER RANKINGS!!!

Trailer Analysis

I don't know how much analyzing the trailer is really going to change my predictions, but there's a lot of interesting stuff in it anyways.

Yooooo, Emily's got the Miles Edgeworth bright red sports car! I assume her and Trevor are going somewhere to further their season-spoiling quest, Trevor likely ditching work while doing it.

So, given Jake's hair, I think we can safely assume that this scene happens after the dialogue scene shown at the end of the trailer. I'm also going to guess (given that it isn't dusk/nighttime) that Jake gets another hair tie at the start of the challenge, given that he's shown with his ponytail there.

I initially assumed that this was part of the challenge, but the challenge takes place in the maze from the s1 face your fears challenge. So, I guess this is just an effort to distract Connor and help him have fun? It's nice to see that Ally can still get along with the guy.

Alright, so the challenge seems to be assembling the outfits of a contestant that you were close to, the items of clothing hidden throughout the maze. Also, there's some sort of mechanic that lets contestants shock each other using the shock collars. Jake is holding Tom's gloves, and Ally Ashley's hat, so that's who they're doing. The other two figures both appear to be men. I have to assume Connor is doing Alec, because, like, who else? But also, who the hell else would Riya do...? Fucked up if they both have to fight for Alec. Possibly more fucked up if Riya has to do Connor while he's still in the competition.

Oh my god, Riya does have to do Connor; those are his glasses right there. Imagine if Riya starts ripping his clothes off to save time. Probably not the reason why Connor would have wanted that to happen.

"Here. It'll keep it from falling." "How's it look, doc?" "It's giving." "Giving? Giving what?"

Ah, more classic Connor old man jokes. I don't really know how a hair tie on top of a bandage would possibly be giving, but, you do you, Jake.

Power Ranking

#1: Jake

Jake is not going to be eliminated. He's the only season 1 character left. If there was a threat of him being sent home by Ally or whoever, I have no doubts that the writers would simply create a challenge that he would win to make him immune from going home. Also, he's going to win the season. Thank you for your time.

#2: Connor

Alright, on to the actual difficult decision of the power ranking. Really, Connor is the one who's manifesting this second place position for me. He's the one who keeps saying that he's going to beat Riya in the war between them. With this much hype leading up to it, that has to mean that he places better than she does, right?

The tricky thing here is that, right now, there are two heroic boys and two villainous girls. No matter how you slice, it you're going to wind up with a final 3 containing two of one and one of the other. However, I do think it's more likely that they'd have two "heroes" in the finale than two "villains." I already think it's obvious that Jake is going to win, but if it's Jake versus Ally and Riya, they should just hand him the $3mil three episodes early. Keeping Connor in the game will leave some level of suspense in the air, as well as keep the whole finale from becoming Jake vs. the Forces of Evil. (DC and SvtFoE must be kept away from each other at all costs. Letting their insane shipping energies combine would create a love triangle so endlessly potent that it could wipe out entire countries.)

Really, Connor's main issues come down to his injury. In this episode with a very active challenge, I have to imagine that it'll keep him from winning immunity. Thus, Riya, and possibly Ally as well, will likely be voting for him. And then, even if he makes it to the finale, we face the problem of "how can Connor be an engaging finalist if his broken ankle basically starts him dead in the water?"

This episode is easy enough to let slide, given that there are plenty of advantageous ways the vote could shake out. Ally could agree to vote for Riya with Connor and Jake, Riya could agree to vote for Ally with Connor and Jake, or Riya and Ally could split their votes (like Riya on Connor and Ally on Jake) leaving Connor and Jake as the majority. And, even if Ally and Riya do vote for Connor, there's always the possibility that he could win a tiebreaker to stay in the competition. Venus came up with that as an idea for how their "war" could end, and I think that could be pretty interesting.

As for the finale, I think it's fine if Connor doesn't have much winner equity as long as him bowing out at 3rd place finalist paves the way for a dynamic final duo to close out the season. However, that part really depends on who's becoming part of that duo with Jake. Speaking of...

#3: Ally

I really, really think that Ally will be in the finale. The finAlly, if you will. However, between her and Connor, I think she would be the more likely one to be eliminated.

Something that Venus reminded me of is that this is the last episode before we check in with the Loser's Motel. Thus, whoever is eliminated here will be a part of that episode, as the most recent move-in. I already said last week that it seems like Connor probably doesn't need to go to the Loser's Motel, as he wrapped things up with Alec when Alec was eliminated. Between the two of them, I think it'd be much more valuable to let Ally finally talk more with Hunter and Tess, as well as seeing the reaction to her on social media, than anything Connor would be doing there. Giving Ally the Loser's Motel episode to finish out her character journey could be helpful, so that she doesn't have to fight for screen time with Jake and the other finalist (lol) in the finale. Ally could serve as the main character of that episode.

I guess I could also see it making sense to have Jake beat Ally now? With a Jake/Connor/Riya finale, maybe the direction they'd take it is that Jake already won his interpersonal battle, so while Riya and Connor fight things out (with Connor beating her to get his spiritual win), Jake gets to focus on his own game to come out on top. Although, that does then make it seem like Jake and Connor would be the final 2, which is a pretty non-hostile conclusion to this overly dramatic show. Also a not-at-all-tense one, when one competitor is almost double the age of the other and hobbling on one foot.

I don't really know why I'm trying to argue so hard that Ally is going home. Perhaps I'm pre-justifying it for when the person right behind Riya in my rankings goes home instead of Riya again. But-- say it with me now-- it HAS to be Riya this time, right?!

#4: Riya

I really don't see how Riya gets out of this episode alive. Like, yes, in-universe, she could probably win immunity again. But, even in-universe, I feel like Jake and Connor would legit rather let Ally win immunity by losing their own chances tackling Riya to the ground to prevent her from winning again. And then what, she winds up in a 2-2 tiebreaker? That she definitely loses to Connor, and almost certainly Jake if she were to fight him as well?

Riya is not a finalist. I refuse to believe that she will be. I really, really don't think that, after everything, they're going to let her into the finals again. It makes so much more sense for her to go down at final 4. With only one chance left, I really hope the writers finally take her out this time.

Alright, well. Not much to say with this one, given that I really don't think that Jake is going home and I really think Riya is. Please let that be right this time. For everyone's sakes.
