- Ep.6 Reward challenge: "Rolling Stones Challenge" - Exactly as in Survivor 41 - rock draw for teams, two forced sit-outs, winners choose which sit-out joins them, which goes to Exile. Orange (Jonathan's team) wins easily, they pick Lindsay to join them (duh).
- Ep.6 exile: Also exactly as in Survivor 41. Rocksroy gets the hourglass, and since breaking it makes him immune (along with his allies, Drea and Romeo), he breaks it. Duh, again.
- Ep.7 Immunity challenge: "A Bit Tipsy" - After several late stack drops, Tori wins.
- Ep.7 voted out: Lydia, 6-2-2-1 over Jonathan, Maryanne, and Lindsay ("Lynze"), respectively. Lydia is the final non-juror, the "tribe" then "merges."
Episodes 6-7 scoring notes
- Obvious note: These episodes were scored together because, in every sense except there being two hours/two titles, it was a single episode: A reward challenge, an immunity challenge, and a Tribal Council, all of which took place over a 3-day span. (The RC was allegedly an RC/IC, but the twist took away the immunity part and not the reward, so it's really just an RC.)
- Sit-outs note: While luck sent Lindsay and Rocksroy to the bench in the RC, it was a team challenge, so it counts as a sit-out, because who cares? In the *individual* IC, however, the RC-losing team had immunity (after the hourglass twist), and was ineligible to compete, even if they wanted to, so nobody was charged with a sit-out there, and no MPF data gained or lost.
- *Omar note: As before (Ep3), Omar was present at Tribal but couldn't vote due to losing his vote at the Ep3 dilemma. So zero TCA/VFB, but he saw 11 TotV.
Vote count:
- Lydia received 2 votes, from Drea, Hai, Jonathan, Lindsay, Maryanne, and Mike (voted out, 6-2-2-1).
- Jonathan received 2 votes, from Chanelle and Tori.
- Maryanne received 2 votes, from Lydia and Romeo.
- Lindsay received 1 vote, from Rocksroy.

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.
- Plc: Place finished in an individual challenge.
- % Fin: Fraction of winning (100%) from that placement. Second place in a 9-person challenge is worth 8/9 points, third place 7/9, and so on.
- MPF: Mean % Finish in individual challenges. Average of all %Fin scores for that player.
- 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.
