- 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.

Episode 9 scoring notes
Notes:
- Since neither of the Tyson votes were shown, they must have came from the bootees, and that no other Katie votes were unshown at the first Tribal Council. (Ciera voted for Katie at the F10 Tribal Council, Katie voted for Monica at the F9 Tribal Council.)
- Vytas stated on twitter that the F10 IC (gross food) had a semi-final round of three: eating cow eyeballs, featuring himself, Gervase, and Tina. But his failure to advance from that round was edited into the previous (sheep intestine) round to save time. We've given him credit for a third-place finish there.
Vote count - F10 Tribal Council
- Vytas received 8 votes, from Tyson, Monica, Gervase, Tina, Laura M., Hayden, Katie, and Caleb (voted out, 7-2-2).
