Philippines boxscores Episode
6
Filmed: January 28-30, 2018 |
Aired: June 7, 2018
- Ep.6 Reward/Immunity challenge: (Team "This Much") - Mindanao looks nigh unstoppable, Luzon manages to pass Visayas on the puzzle, eke out second place. Bio-Strath was allegedly enjoyed by Mindanao.
- Ep.6 idol: Werner finally digs up the Luzon one, following the same clue Ace and Josie had been using.
- Ep.6 voted out: Marthunis is the only actual casualty, quitting before the double vote. Josie is voted to Mindanao, Annalize to Luzon. Josie picks Toni to join her; Annalize picks Katinka.
Episode 6 scoring notes
- Time stamps: This episode is very confusing time-wise. The time stamps make very clear that the RC/IC happened on Day 14, and when people at Mindanao are getting ready to leave for Tribal, it's still marked as Day 14. But at the start of Episode 7, it's suddenly Night 16 when the newly swapped tribes return to camp. Where did those extra two days come from?
- The single-winner RC/IC: Because Mindanao received no reward for finishing second, they receive no partial credit, scoring-wise.
- *Marthunis's quit: As always, his score was adjusted as if it was a unanimous vote-out by his tribe (+5 VAP, 5 TotV, 1 TCA).
- **The non-elim votes: As is often done in SurvivorAU (this was a very AU-esque episode), because the contestants weren't told ahead of time they were voting for Josie and Annalize to be swapped, rather than be voted out, all the votes count. (Note that the votes Josie and Annalize themselves made weren't shown. Josie probably voted for Jeanne, as planned. Wikipedia has Annalize voting for Katinka, which ... sure, maybe?)
Mindanao vote count:
- Annalize received 3 votes, from Katinka, PK, and Tevin (*not* voted out, 3-1).
- **Katinka (?) received 1 vote, from Annalize.
Luzon vote count:
- Josie received 3 votes, from Jeanne, Toni, and Werner (*not* voted out, 3-1).
- **Jeanne (?) received 1 vote, from Josie.

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.
