Emmett, Andrew, Dani win IC
Baden (sort of) out, 1

 

  • Ep.14 Immunity challenge: (Multi-stage obstacles) - Three stages, with players eliminated in the first two. In the end, five people fighting it out for three necklaces. Emmett, Andrew, Dani win, and are the only people who get to vote at Tribal.
  • Ep.14 Tribal: Did we say they get to vote? Ha! Oh no, they merely *compete* to vote. Only Dani actually votes, after winning at firemaking. Baden is out, with 1 vote.
  • Ep.14 Redemption Rock: Did we say Baden was out? Oh no, he's only half out. Now he goes to Redemption Rock. Sigh.
Episode 14 scoring notes
  • The IC: This was scored like the Ep9 IC, but with three winners. Baden was second (barely behind Dani), Laura third (not close). But because there were only nine non-winning slots available, Baden is 2nd/10 for MPF purposes, instead of out of 12 (the total people participating). Hayley/Chelsea/Cara tied for 4th (out of 10), the rest for 7th (out of 10). Is there anything SurvivorAU can't make more complicated?
  • The vote: This is super frustrating to score. Everyone saw one vote cast (1 TotV). Dani was the only one who voted (1 TCA, 1 VFB). Baden of course receives the sole vote against (1 VAP). In the end, Dani's immunity was irrelevant, because she was the only person casting a vote, and she can't vote for herself.
Vote count:
  • Baden received 1 vote, from Dani.

Glossary of terms
  • Challenge stats
    • ChW: Challenge Wins. For tribal challenges, a contestant earns a fraction of 1 win, depending on if they participated (no points for sitting out). So in a five-person tribe's win, each participant gets (1/5) of a point, or 0.2 points. Duels (or individual RCs as in Ep1) at Redemption Island count as half a challenge (and half a win). Individual challenge wins count as a full point.
    • ChA: Challenge Appearances. Used to calculate ChW%. Fractional for tribal challenges (same as ChW), except sit-outs get charged for an appearance, because they could have participated.
    • ChW%: Challenge Win%. Simply, ChW% = ChW / ChA.
    • SO: The number of times a contestant sat out of a challenge.
  • Tribal Council stats
    • VFB: Votes For Bootee. The number of times the contestant has voted for the person who was ultimately voted out. Applies only to initial votes (no points for revotes in case of a tie). Special case: In a final three TC, where only one vote is cast (by the F3 IC winner), only that vote counts.
    • VAP: Votes Against the Player. The total number of tribal council votes cast against the contestant. Again, only initial votes count (no penalty for revotes), and here a hidden immunity idol (if played) erases the votes. In the special case of a final three tribal council above, only the F3 bootee receives a vote against.
    • TotV: Total votes cast during the tribal councils the player has attended (again, only initial votes count). Used to adjust for different vote totals as tribes shrink.
    • TCA: Tribal council appearances. The number of times a contestant has attended tribal council (at which they voted).
    • TC%: Tribal Council percent. Attempts to reward voting for the bootee (which players controlling the vote almost always do), while punishing receiving votes yourself. The formula is: TC% = [VFB - (VAP/TotV)] / TCA.
    • wTCR: weighted Tribal Council Ratio. Very similar in intent to TC%, but calculated as a ratio of VFB to VAP, while also scaling to a uniform number of TC appearances. The formula is as follows: wTCR =2* [VFB / (4+VAP)] x (14/TCA). I originally tried (1+VAP) to avoid dividing by zero, but this overly rewarded getting zero votes against relative to just one vote against, which seemed silly. (4+VAP) scaled that effect back comfortably. 14 was used as the scaling factor for TC appearances because there are usually 14 episodes, then a final scaling factor of 2 to bring maximal scores up to roughly even with ChW and JV% high scores.
  • Jury stats
    • JVF: Number of jury votes for the contestant to win. Maximum nine (Earl Cole, Fiji), theoretically.
    • TotJ: Total number of jurors. Necessary to not punish unanimous 7-juror winners (JT Thomas, Tocantins).
    • JV%: The percent of total jury votes cast for the contestant, or Jur% = JVF/ TotJ. This number is used, raw, in SurvSc, and is scaled in SurvAv (multiplied by six) to make it similar in size to ChW and wTCR.
  • Overall scores
    • Survival Score (SurvSc). It's simply the sum of Challenge Win% (ChW%) + Tribal Council% (TC%) + Jury Vote%, for a maximum possible score of 2 (3 after the finale).
    • Survival Average (SurvAv). It's a simple sum of fractional Challenge Wins (ChW), weighted TC Ratio (wTCR), and (eventually) a weighted Jury%. The latter two max out at six points total, for a theoretical maximum score of around 18 or so.
