- 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 4 scoring notes
Notes: Hey, two challenges! With a lot sit-outs. And the RC was the exact same challenge, in the exact same spot, as Cagayan, except this time, the Brains' flag didn't fall off the platform, since it was stuck through a buoy. But still... progress. In other news... another day, another vote split in which the first round of voting (the only one that counts here) isn't shown. Below is an image breaking down what we think happened:
Mike's vote was obvious, since he cast a near-identical (LiNdsee-YA) one on the revote. We're fairly sure on Kelly - she forgot to move the iron paperweight, so she started her vote in the middle of the paper, resulting in the odd-looking "SiERRA" vote, the handwriting on which is a close match for her revote for "LiNDSY :(". That leaves either Dan or Rodney as the second first-round Lindsey voter. Of the two, Rodney is the obvious choice for voting "CIARA," but there is more evidence. Dan clearly changed his handwriting between votes, opting for cursive on the revote, so that's no help. But in his first vote, we can see the paper he's about to use, and it has a notch in the upper left corner, just like the remaining "Lindsey" vote. Plus it's the only vote (other than the cursive one) where the first letter is capitalized and all the others are lowercase, as a name should be written. Rodney makes more sense for an all-caps misspelled vote.
Vote count:
- Lindsey received 2 votes, from Mike (and Dan?) - (voted out, 3-0 on revote).
- Sierra received 2 votes, from Kelly (and Rodney?).
- Rodney received 2 votes, from Lindsey and Sierra.
