I think they said the F3 would have likely been Erik Dawn and Sherri so Erik wins that easily. This would earn him a game changers invite as he and Tony would be the two most popular recent male winners so I he gets cast over JT. They’d probably switch him and Tony’s tribes to avoid putting Erik on a tribe with three people he’s already played with in Ozzy Cirie and Andrea. With Tony now on a tribe with Sarah we see CopsRUs 2.0 four years earlier. Nuku won the first two immunities so Tony doesn’t get voted out second, as the best idol hunter on that tribe I think he finds the idol JT found irl. Sandra still targets the other former winner on Mana, this time being Erik, but since he’s not as chaotic as Tony the tribe votes out Sandra instead. With Tony in JT’s position, he doesn’t make the same blunder and leak the target of Sierra to Culpepper in the double tribal. Sierra goes instead of Malcolm and Tai plays his idol on himself. I could see Aubry finding this idol once rehidden on Mana beach. Without Sierra, Brad does not have the numbers at the merge and goes early. Debbie’s reward no longer involves Cochrane since he’s not a winner, tough to say who’d visit her instead. With Malcolm and Tony surviving their irl eliminations and better insulated by Sarah, Erik, and Andrea, we see many more threats make it deep.

I think Troyzan would still be seen as a non-threat and slip through to the final 6 just like real life. We saw what Tony and Sarah did against all winners so it’s safe to say that they’d make it to F6 as well. Erik has never not made final 6, and would have been well insulated by Malcolm and Andrea who’d still be seen as bigger threats given that Erik would have won against weak competition. Cirie makes it just like real life since she’s Cirie. Last spot I’d lean Aubry since she made it in real life. Tai would’ve been more exposed as part of the minority at the merge. Hali also could’ve made it since she was voted out irl for being in the middle (they wanted to delay the drawing of the line in the sand between the Brad-Sierra alliance and Cirie-Andrea, but in this scenario the Brad-Sierra alliance never secures its majority), but she’d have a tougher path than Aubry and is not as good at the game.

So now we have final 6 with Troyzan, Cirie, Aubry, Erik, Sarah and Tony. This time Sarah has her legacy advantage and steal a vote, and Tony, Troyzan, and Aubry all have their idols. Erik probably wins immunity and Tony becomes the obvious target with him and Sarah outnumbered 4-2. She plays her steal a vote to force a 3-3 which spooks Aubry so she plays her idol. Tony and Sarah then both play their idol and legacy advantage to ensure safety, then Troyzan plays his idol just like he did irl. Advantagegeddon is inevitable. Cirie doesn’t have any votes against her but is the only one vulnerable.

As a superfan Erik recognizes that he played too utr this time around, and probably won’t beat Tony Sarah or Aubry at final 3. He has the option to go down in Survivor lore as someone who can only win against weak competition, OR he can become a Survivor legend by doing the unthinkable:

“Jeff, I’d like to give individual immunity to Cirie.”

By giving up immunity again, this time without being tricked, Erik gets to effectively pick Cirie as the Game Changers winner. Jeff of course allows it even though votes have already been cast, simply following the rule of cool. Tony goes next as the obvious boot, then Sarah wins final immunity since she almost beat Brad irl. She probably picks Troyzan to join her in the end, sending Cirie and Aubry to fire. Based on past and future performances, Cirie probably beats Aubry in fire and makes final three. Tony advocates hard for Sarah but the jury still gives him most of the credit for their game. Cirie wins by a decent margin.

We probably get Cirie Erik and JT (JT legacy still intact without GC performance) on WaW in place of Sarah Adam and Nick. Tony has a high threat level and doesn’t have Sarah so is voted out quick. Tough to say who wins, maybe Sophie or Erik. Sarah returns for 50 instead of Cirie, tough to say who wins there.

Seems like their pitch isn’t that Homelander is God in the sense that he created the universe, but that he’s the most powerful being in existence. As a non-religious person I would immediately accept this as truth since it’s pretty much proven in-universe. Like every other religion is built on unfalsifiable claims, meanwhile there’s concrete proof that Homelander is basically the almighty. Even if they made an unfalsifiable claim that like Homelander created the universe and his body is just a vessel to serve his creations, I’d find the evidence more compelling than any existing religion.

Like shit if u let the worm cook he could probably design a holy book that’s entirely composed of proven truths and unfalsifiable claims. Huge leg up over holy books that were written before science proved a bunch of their claims wrong like the age of the earth or the origin of humans.

Here are mine:

1. Convince someone that they’ve been recruited by a secret agency and have them complete a crazy mission.

2. Convince someone they have travelled through time.

I think both could be accomplished with the right person and using Carbonaro Effect type shenanigans. Now that I think about it, these two ideas could be the same season - time travel secret mission. Just how would they film it? Hidden cameras? Filming is part of their “mission”? Neither would be as high quality of a production. Also more risk for distress than a jury duty or company retreat. Would be so funny though.
