Nama Tribe:
Semhar
This girl is on FIRE. The way she speaks makes you believe her and want to trust her and she has that sort of realness to her tone, but I truly believe this cast won't see her coming at all as a backstabber and she will slit a lot of throats in this game and make it far. The problem is I don't think she has the experience to win in a FTC situation, especially if she does end up backstabbing a lot of people who will be angry at her.
Prediction: Final 3, 0 Vote Getter
Rick
Winner Pick. This guy knows this game through and through. Planning your moves accordingly is the way to play the game. In a game like this, you should always drop your expectations at the door, because you don't know what twists are just around the corner and how your fellow contestants act. Rick has the wit & the experience to make it all the way and deliver a great FTC performance.
Prediction: Winner
Cochran
First things first, props to Poody for going out and finding a legit superfan to play Cochran. That's the epitome of genius. Now, let's get to the point. Cochran (SP), Spencer (Cagayan), Nick Uhas (BB15), Peter Brown (BB Canada). You see the similarities between these 4 people? All these people were superfans of their respective reality shows and they all wanted to be masterminds and make big moves. Stranded Cochran is no different. He wants to be the villain, he WANTS the title of Villain, and frankly, that's what's going to cost him in this game. He doesn't realize if you lie to much, it swings back around to you and before you know it your ass is blindsided. He's going to come in thinking he's going to make it far with his deceptive ways, but it's just not going to work.
Prediction: Early Jury
Jim
Oh sweet baby jesus. Ladies & Gentleman, you are looking at the 1st Boot of Stranded in Namibia. This guy has first boot written all over his face. Like Brenda said, he's literally the same Jim from SP. A total sleazeball who thinks he's the smartest guy. If he acts in public the way he acted in his bio, he doesn't stand a chance, and to be honest, I think he will. Frank 2.0 right here guys.
Prediction: First Boot
Papa Bear
He needs to make up his mind fast. The game is vast approaching, and he has no idea who he wants to be in this game. He has this whole plan already set out, everyone else is thinking about their next move, and Papa Bear is thinking 10 moves ahead. Never, I repeat, NEVER, think about later into the game, always think about the next move. You don't believe me, just ask David Samson sitting in Ponderosa right about now.
Prediction: Pre-Merge
Elyse
I believe Elyse will have a fantastic social game which will get her in a majority alliance and far into the game, but I don't see her winning. The lack of personality there also doesn't excite me as a viewer, because I want to see entertaining characters and she's so vanilla.
Prediction: Late Jury
Christine
Again, another contestant who is going to rely on the social game, but won't be courageous enough to make the big move needed to get her to the end.
Prediction: Mid Jury
Whitney
Whitney is a wildcard for me. She seems like the type of girl who will call people out if she hears anything about her, and that could put her into deep trouble in this game. I don't see her making the merge, but I do see her lasting around the F14 or 13.
Prediction: Pre-Merge
Sophie
Sophie is going to make it far, but people will quickly realize her wits, and she'll be gone. I do think early on she will take control of Nama because she is definitely a complex character who will always try to make the best move possible for her game. But at some point in time she will become the biggest threat and she won't make it to the end.
Prediction: Mid Jury
Ovamba Tribe:
Matt
This guy IS Gregg 2.0, the similarities between the 2 is so uncanny. He's definitely not going to make it far, because it's obvious he's going to try and be the leader and dictate the tribe, but he should be entertaining regardless if he makes it far or not. And I hope he uses a Jesus shtick. Please.
Prediction: Pre Merge
Stephanie
HBIC. But she won't be making it too far. I think she'll be a hothead over at Ovamba and cause drama within the tribe, but I can still see her making the merge. Either way, I expect Stephanie to cause major Drama, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if she ends up calling out the bigger personalities (a la Matt).
Prediction: Early Jury
Grant
Not a lot of personality there, but I do see him making it pretty deep. The problem is that he's just not going to have a lot of allies at the end of it all to get him to the end, and I think that's what's going to bite him in the ass. He's looking for someone he can partner up with, NOT a majority alliance, and that's not the right move to make.
Prediction: Mid Jury
Kristina
She's such a firecracker. She can't wait for this to start and I'm excited to see how she does. The problem is I think her tribe will be completely overwhelmed by her. She's going to annoy a lot of people IMO with her energetic personality, and I honestly do see her overplaying. I love that she's excited to play in this game, but I think she'll be disappointed of the outcome.
Prediction: Pre Merge
Ashley
Obviously the adorable blonde barbie girl, but tbh that's pretty much it for her. She's quite 2 dimensional, and I feel bad for saying that, but it's true. I think when the merge hits people will grow sick of her and she won't be lasting much further.
Prediction: Early Jury
David
The smartest guy here. His confessional is going to be FILLED with thoughts and several different moves and scenarios. He's going to be a complex strategist and I think he's going to make it deep into the game, but will just barely miss out on the F3. He'll find himself in a majority, but I think his social game is what will cost him. He's an obvious gamebot.
Prediction: Final 4 Boot
Mike
I view Mike as a Snake. He's gonna slither his way through the cracks and little openings and sneak his way far into the game, but won't make it to the end. I do feel if he finds himself on the outs and gets valuable information, he'll use that to his advantage to get farther into the game.
Prediction: Late Jury
Julie
Love her already. She doesn't give a two fucks of what others think about her and she has the personality where she won't take shit from nobody. She'll make it to the end, get a 2 or 3 Votes from people who appreciated her honesty, but most of the jurors will view her as a bitch, and it will cost her.
Prediction: Final 3
Ralph
Ralph is the adorable, fun loving, extremely nice guy on Ovamba. He'll be very OTT, and a lovable teddy bear. However, I see him getting the same edit the General did. He's going to find himself in a predicament where people will look at him and go "This guy is extremely positive, everybody loves him, we need to get him out" and he'll be gone.
Prediction: Pre Merge
