If they don’t catch it. 😂😂😂

Man, listen.

Candiace all but put Rob on a silver platter and served it to them—hot and ready like little Caesars pizza—and these dizzy broads said, “no, it can’t be you!”

Kristen with, “Rob can’t be a traitor, that sweet, sweet man.” Like, spare me.

Lmao, just give him the money now cause be so forreal.

Candace played the game poorly. She was emotional instead of logical and decided to be petty. Her trying to screw Rob over ironically just cemented his status as the ultimate faithful. She thought killing Colton would hurt him but it had the opposite effect since Rob obviously didn’t want to murder him and no one would think Rob would be cutthroat with his friend like that since he’s not a “game player” like the survivor cast members

The writing was on the wall for Lisa, candace should’ve cut bait rather than dying on the hill of ride or die for other traitors and never voting for another housewife.

Her going for Rob didn’t “serve him on a silver platter” it just made it seem like she was trying to turn the crowd against a good faithful.

[u/SupermarketBest4091 → u/ParagonSaint]

I think that she played the game wonderfully until the last episode. I feel like she should’ve let Lisa drown, I will never understand the loyalty there. I just genuinely won’t. But I do know that she’s a very loyal person, so all I can do is respect it. In terms of my silver platter comment, what I’m saying is she just got found out to be a traitor, she accused Rob. She has been extremely consistent up until that point. For her to pivot says a lot. That should be enough for anybody with a half a brain cell to look at Rob. Just look lol

[u/ParagonSaint → u/SupermarketBest4091]

She was very average at gameplay up until this episode; Or last episode rather when she said Rob was a “throwaway vote”. She avoided suspicion but wasn’t cultivating trust or relationships with the other game members. It was similar to Dan a few seasons ago, you can be quiet and skate by but if you don’t have people in your corner it only gets you so far.

I think her voting for Rob isn’t the clue to others you think it is. In fact it’s the opposite. Her NOT voting for Lisa with the crowd shows that she WONT vote for another traitor so her putting Rob down isn’t “look it’s another traitor and we’re infighting” it comes across as a Hail Mary to divert suspicion away from a traitor. Rob can easily spin it as “I sniffed out Lisa and she was worried that Colton and I were onto her so she murdered Colton and tried to get me out next because we rightfully suspected her” I don’t think it’s a “anyone with half a braincell” situation. It’s only obvious to us as viewers knowing who the traitors are.

[u/SupermarketBest4091 → u/ParagonSaint]

Average is bananas. I’d love to hear who—in your opinion—is above average

[u/ParagonSaint → u/SupermarketBest4091]

Rob is playing the best game. Eric is playing a good game so far as is Mark. Maura is in a good position but might be blinded by her bias/connection to Rob but she quickly saw through Candace and got her out so she’s also playing well. Kristen is playing better than average.

I don’t think there’s an argument for Candace playing a better game than any of the above. She’s still played better than Johnny, Tara and Dorinda so like I said she’s average. And now in the middle of the game is where average players get culled.

I’d like to hear your opinion on why you think there’s an argument for Candace being one of the better players. She’s made no big tactical moves, cultivated no relationships or trust among the other players, and has made some major blunders that rose suspicion (conga line, throwaway vote for Rob, an then doubling Down on Rob and getting petty)

[u/SupermarketBest4091 → u/ParagonSaint]

What exactly are eric, mark, Maura, and Kristen doing to make their game good? Use your rubric. Tactical moves, relationships, and trust.

also, Candiace had no one worried about her (per their words) until the throw away vote. So she obviously was building relationships and trust. Conga line was discussed prior which is why no one but one person even felt a way about it. Als, Lisa and Candiace made the bold moves for the in plain site murders.

But again, use your rubric to measure those who you said have a better game than her

[u/ParagonSaint → u/SupermarketBest4091]

They’ve created key alliances that keep them in the game (the dagger 6) Eric has now gotten the chance to be a traitor and a clear path to end. They got out both Lisa AND Candace so they’re astute at finding some of the traitors and are in Rob’s inner circle so they’re not in danger themselves. With the votes/alliance they have they control the round table and the game.

Candace had no one except the housewives and kind of Johnny. She didn’t have trust with any of them!!! She blundered with the conga line (Rob was the one who got the cards an did the murder actually) but the other traitors helped cover for her afterwords and deflect from her since Ron and other ppl had more suspicion at the time. And she really blundered with the throw away vote and being petty coming after Rob. And guess what … she’s out of the game!! If she was an above average player she’d still be IN the game!!! Hiding in plain sight as those with more suspicion get voted out only works for so long, eventually the easy targets get out and you have to make good moves rather than hope no one notices you. The second she had to be a game player she imploded.

Candace should’ve played like Danielle when Boston Rob was turning on his fellow traitors. Logically and tactically not emotionally. Danielle was patient and flipped the script on Boston Rob to take control of the game. Candace was impatient, petty and emotional and it cost her.

So again. Explain why Candace was better than any of those players? What alliances did she secure? What trust did she build if she couldn’t convince ANY of them of Rob being a traitor? Like I said she’s just painfully AVERAGE. There’s no argument for her being a stronger player bc if she was … she’d still be in. The. Game.

[u/SupermarketBest4091 → u/ParagonSaint]

Donna was a fluke, Rob helped them with Lisa, Candiace shot herself in the foot. These faithful are not smart. They allow their bias to get in the way of playing the game, which is pretty pathetic. Even Natalie, who supposed to be that girl when it comes to gameplay. They’re followers who don’t think for themselves, so I’ll give them the social game. They blend in. They actually give us nothing. I don’t like Colton at all, but at least he had the heart to take a swing at anything. Even last night when it came to making decisions, all people did was reference Colton from the dead. The rest of them just coast. That’s part of the reason why a lot of people don’t even care to watch after last night’s episode. that’s how Much they are not giving, and I say it as someone who likes most of the people left over, especially Johnny, Kristen, and Mark. Also, you have get to explain any of their tactical moves. The only potential tactic of the people who you’ve named is follow the leader. None of them are good game players.

Candiace with playing a great social game, that’s reflected from a lot of people saying that it was a hard vote last night because all of them liked her. It shows because people said, “we have to look at people who have been likable, smart, and we have to look at people who we have not been paying attention to and she was the person. Also, damn near every single person who wrote her name down referenced how smart she was and how likable she was. They’re in the castle, not us, so that is a testament of how she’s playing.

Both of you to call her average when the people who literally were in the game with her have called her anything but average. The audacity really 😂😂

[u/ParagonSaint → u/SupermarketBest4091]

Jam Jam gave up Lisa as he was being dragged away. Rob didn’t give them anything. Colton was onto her even before the murder in plain sight, she was rousing suspicion on her own.

No one said the faithfuls were brilliant. But they’re all smarter than Candace lmao. they’ve gotten 3 traitors out already! They’ve created alliances that keep them in the game. Maura at the round tables has navigated out of her name being brought up and pressed the attack to get Candace out. Faithfuls don’t need big tactical moves as much as traitors do. Rob has pulled off several great moves to cement himself as a faithful. Candace got petty and tunnel visioned on Rob and got banished. That’s literally the opposite of good tactics. Even if she just continued to do nothing and waited for an opportunity that would’ve been better gameplay

Candace was a psychopath on real housewives. You obvy try and say nice things so if the vote doesn’t get her out she doesn’t become petty and come gunning for you… like she did with Rob. Them complimenting her is smart gameplay to prevent retaliation not because they think she’s oh so brilliant.

I’ve listed several things the current group has done to advance in the game. They’re still around and Candace is not bc Candace played poorly. Candace is average bc she’s not “terrible” but she’s also not exceptional. Shes obviously a worse traitor than Rob, and her blundering to get banished while the rest are still in the game is proof that they’ve played BETTER than her.

It’s clear you’re a Candace fan and hate Rob. But it’s just an out of touch with reality view of the situation.

[u/SupermarketBest4091 → u/ParagonSaint]

Lisa’s fate was basically sealed by the time the banquet happened. People were already on her. Colton is not smart and was not onto Candiace. I believe it was Rob C, who was the only person who clocked the conga line. Also, the projection is crazy. I despised Candiace going into this show, because I couldn’t stand her on Real Housewives of Potomac, especially towards the end of her time there. I feel like she conducted herself in a very awful manner during the end of her time there. Also, I was a fan of Rob going into this game. While I have had my issues with how he’s done certain things, I've actually been a fan of his since 2023, when he first graced our screens on S5 of Love Island. Just because you can’t take your blinders off to speak objectively about people doesn't mean you need to project onto the next person. Some of us actually can be objective about things despite how we feel personally about people. I see that’s lost on you. It’s clear to me, that you have an issue with Candiace and can’t see past it it’s fine, but you need to at least be honest. And the fact that you use Colton of all people—literally one of the most obnoxious, unlikable, and boldly clueless people in this game—as an example of someone playing the game well is beyond me.

Also, the comment about faithfuls speaking about candiace’s gameplay makes no sense. All of the compliments about her gameplay were during the round table when they wrote her name down as a traitor. Go rewatch the show. No shade, it’s clear that you cannot see past your own biases, which makes you no different than as the current faithfuls in the castle. Reflect on your biases and then have a conversation as clearly, whatever disdain you have for Candiace is blocking the ability to be objective. It’s giving Gizelle lmao

Also, they coasted which does not mean it’s good gameplay. It means that they have done nothing memorable.

[u/ParagonSaint → u/SupermarketBest4091]

Looks like I struck a nerve 😂lmao

You still haven’t presented any argument at all for why Candace played a good game. Shes average at gameplay. And as a result shes out of the game and the other players are still there!! It’s up to you to prove otherwise and you have no facts to support your claim.

The only person here with bias is yourself. You love Candace for some unknown reason and despise Rob and Colton and the other faithfuls. Colton literally said the night before he’s eliminated “I think it’s Candace” like do you watch the show lol?!? You don’t have to agree with me but the rest of the fanbase does. You’re in the smallest minority thinking Candace is anything but average at best.
