@lordsoflimited.bsky.social Hey I've got an idea for the Survivor pod. Assuming y'all don't want to do season 51, what if you just did one or two episodes per season? You could do one right before or after the merge episode, and one after the finale.

Have y'all thought about that?

That's incredible 😆

@lordsoflimited.bsky.social also, I think y'all are underestimating Coach and Q (a bit). Coach played a winning game before he just didn't own up to it at final. Q actually has some good game understanding if you listen to him on podcasts. And I could see people using him as a shield/smokescreen.

@lordsoflimited.bsky.social I randomly saw y'all put out an episode weeks ago and was so surprised! Patched y'all are coming back for 50. I definitely would be interested in a draft episode

Hey can you explain anything about the changes to constellation cost and the chests only giving one crystal or nova shard? That's a big change that was not communicated, and we don't even know if it's a bug or not

Well I'm sure it certainly gave you the opportunity to do both Breadth and Depth searching 😁

Genuinely curious, why? I'm assuming you love the game, but did you find value from finding the 500th korok seed over the many other games you could have been playing? (Not trying to be rude I'm just surprised!)

2) Like y'all so often focus on how contestants should talk to each other, whether in challenges or just at camp. And legit many of those I've taken to my real life relationships! It's just helpful to have models for how to speak in ways that bring people together

1) Also, just want to say I've started listening to other survivor pods and while I like several, none come close to both the level of strategy y'all get to and the awesome social analysis you have. (Cont. Below)

OMG I would love that so much! If you do, maybe consider doing a pre season pod with thoughts on the cast and predictions on how things might play out (if that sounds fun).

@lordsoflimited.bsky.social Do you post about Survivor any more? I miss the podcast! Want to know your and/or Charlie's thoughts on S50 cast!

Yep y'all always get beef and I'm just trying to tell people to have a little faith. Not every champ will be Swain levels but they basically all are fun to play and decently strong enough to clear content

Yep as much as my minmax player brain wants the strongest power possible, it does make it less interesting when every turn you just always play the card with no resources needed other than a target

Another question if you have time - landmarks are interesting design problems I'd imagine. As a player they seem overall pretty weak on their own. How do you design around this, and any chance we'll get some new (better) landmarks in the future?

Oh wow I just realized he basically has two Stars of Discovery! Can you talk about how you came to that design decision? (PS, I love that, SoD are usually the most fun ones).

Looks really fun! I'm wondering with all the generated cards, did you run into the hand size limit much and if so how did you design around that?
