- 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.
Ep.6: "It's Like the Worst Cocktail Party Ever" (Part 2)
Survivor: Edge of Extinction boxscores
Filmed: June 12-14, 2018 | Aired: March 20, 2019
- Ep.6 Reward challenge: "Rod Screw It" - Surprise! Joe turns out to be good at pitching, too: Kama wins pastries feast, Manu takes second.
- Ep.6 Extinction: Keith is very knotty, grabs an advantage in the return challenge, out from under Reem's iron gaze.
- Ep.6 Immunity challenge: "In Through the Out Door" - Joe/Kama wins again, of course. But this time, Manu and Lesu BOTH lose. Whoops.
- Ep.6 idol: Kelley finally finds Lesu's idol.
- Ep.6 voted out: Wendy, 4-4 [6-0 on revote] over Lauren. No idols played. Lots of whispering.
Episode 6 scoring notes
Notes:
- Both Manu and Lesu officially lost the IC this hour, so no second-place points there. (Manu gets half-credit in the RC, though.)
- As always, in a tie vote/revote situation, only the first round of votes matter for VFB purposes. So no VFB credit for Eric, Gavin, or Victoria, even though they did technically vote Wendy out (eventually). If they had been more persuasive, maybe they could be getting points for voting out Lauren, instead.
Vote count:
- Wendy received 4 votes, from David, Kelley, Lauren, and Wardog (voted out, 4-4 [6-0 on revote]).
- Lauren received 4 votes, from Eric, Gavin, Victoria, and Wendy.
