I think Kass is intelligent, but lacks the people skills necessary to play a social game, so she falls back on "Chaos" Kass because she can't actually manipulate people and her only strategy is driving everyone nuts.

One advantage to producers is that they can have less reward challenges, thus saving money.
Well, they can still have reward challenges if they make them individual rewards ("Pick one person to go with you... no, pick one more! No, one more") or if they split people into random teams.

I'm OK with the early merge if no other reason than to shake things up since people always think they know when the merge is going to happen. It does make the jury large (and an even number), but we'll see how it goes.

Like duh. There have been countless reward challenges after the merge including those that include, as Jeff calls them, a school yard pick.

I'm loving the idea of an earlier merge and a larger jury given they are all returning players. Other than a few duds when it comes to the returning players themselves, I think this is the strongest season they have had in a very long time. Despite the couple obvious fixes to the game. It's awesome that they have shaken things up on them more and the challenges have been just that.

Just tell me when Abi leaves. I'll be happy then.
