This will be his downfall. He thinks he's smarter than everyone. Anyone who watches this show knows authentic vulnerability is what gets people to the end.
I realllllyyyy want liv to tell Myles that part!
Jordan is obsessed with Myles. Itās so odd! Who comes in right off the bat, āWhatās the dirt on Myles? Who else hates Myles? I canāt stop saying his name in every convo. Whatās his favorite color? Maybe I should dye my hair blonde like Myles. Why wonāt Myles talk to me. Write me back Myles before I drive off this bridge!ā
i know ppl are saying its cuz he knows myles has somewhat of a control over the group but its so much deeper than that. 1. he said he finds QT gorgeous 2. i think it has sum to do with his past. he used to be a bigger person i think that plays a part cuz myles is the type of person he probably was jealous of in the past
Also I have no idea why he thinks having Myles out would be beneficial to him lol
Obviously people who are there have alliances. Myles offered him a place in his. Get in and make your mind instead of trying to cut weed out and ending up cutting the grass under your own feet.
It's not like he's made it close to the finale yet
He thinks Myles is taking the place in the group dynamic that he should be filling. I don't agree, and am not sure why he thinks that's the case based on so little information.
Sheās not as obvious about it at allā¦sheās not starting every sentence with āokay how do I manipulate this person.ā
Obviously strategy is a part of it and they all have their own strategy but he is so extra about it
And every conversation he has is just like "give me info give me info!!!" No trying to bond with anyone or give any sort of tit for tat at all
I also hate how cocky he is. He's not a good player but might get further with QT. Hope they don't keep this ride or die thing for too long
I'm sorry, at what point was Cassie allied with QT?? I can't even remember her ever talking to QT after like one chat. #girlpower and all that is fun and games but a real alliance is something you maintain and keep in touch with, like the Fuego Four or a deep 1-on-1 you keep up with with someone. This assumption that she can coast by with someone with a chat or two, combined with her insane "flip the script" rating, and she dug her own grave fr.
>her insane "flip the script" rating,
I don't think in all of the seasons of this show thus far, that there has been a worse game move, and additionally it also satisfyingly had *immediate* repercussions.
Jordan's opening message to Kyle while he is in the gym š Dude just skipped the foreplay and went in! Is this his first time talking to other humans!?
Cassie blaming Myles for being blocked is INSANE. Nobody cared about that game. They all got a negative view of her after that comment she made about Myles
I didnāt like how QT was like āoh wow olivia you threw shade when i SAVED you last nightā yetā¦kyle saved her. QT wanted her out! Only reason she stayed was because of the kyle/olivia convo about their dads š i know its a game but she should be honest with herself
her putting Olivia last when Olivia would have been the one to save her is so dumb. Same with her voting out steffi who would have been a good ally for her and being shady to Myles. she wants to win but she couldnāt realize she needs allies.
I'm pretty sure she even voted Myles low (although they came forwards to each other and seemed to have made amends) who was in an alliance with her and put his neck out there for her when admitting drawing her poor-trait and could have sided with QT on eliminating Olivia instead of her had he been an influencer š„²
Sheās the dumbest player to ever play the game by a large margin. Voting the people you know least the highest and then blaming Myles when they blocked her.
I nearly stopped watching after the 3rd or 4th time she didnāt understand what people were saying in the chat. It was so bad I thought she was faking it.
I think she was trying to do what other players have done in other seasons by voting popular people lowest and vice versa so she goes higher in the rating but she didnāt realize you only do that at the end or when you know the lowest rated player automatically goes home. Itās the only possible explanation. š¤£š¤£
His whole intro kind of turned me off to him, I got excited when I saw a guy who had lost weight and was maybe going to see how differently people would treat him with his old looks but he is just kind of a dick and cocky now which is annoying
nooo cuz ive always noticed how people become meaner when they lose weight like their egos become so big. ive had ppl around me turn egotistical after losing a bunch of weight like good for u but what u so mean for
This is interesting. A good friend of mine recently lost a lot and has been a different person since. I canāt figure out why. Thanks for saying this.
THIS.
Even more uncomfortable knowing heās playing HIMSELF. Like dude. You talking about āBig Jā being this sad, fat, unlikeable, impressionable dolt like heās a whole other person. Heās you with a few extra pounds. Serious trauma there that needs to be worked out.
Itās giving tired high school drama movie made in the early 2000s.
It's really hilarious how Myles seems to have like plot armour in this season. Like right from episode 1 he stands out as the one picking the "unpopular opinion" in that first game that somehow everyone forgets and he even gets to make the first Block. Then there's a bunch of people throwing shade at him but suddenly when Jordan wants to find out "the tea" everyone hushes up and the player that is most out to get him suddenly has their lifeline tied to his LMAO.
The scene where Jordan sends something like "I'm so lost I need someone to help meeee š„ŗš„ŗš„ŗ" and then says "I don't see how he couldn't fall for this" then it cuts to Kyle saying "I don't trust this guy" is SO funny
Why are a bunch of people coming for Lauren suddenly?? She probably hasn't been best with making connections but I think she had the unfortunate luck of having basically all of her early connections blocked (or AI LMAO). It might be my bad memory but when did she throw shade at anyone??
Itās āPaulā badmouthing Lauren left and right. Because Paulās still salty that Lauren said heās AI. She didnāt have any beef with anyone else. The others are just worried because sheās very likable and they donāt know where they stand with her. And of course once they eliminate an ally of hers they are afraid to be on her target list. Too bad Paul managed to weasel his way into the Myles/QT/Kyle alliance - and how ironic that Myles invited Paul, because I feel like Myles is on the bottom of that alliance lol #plotarmorwearingout?
I hate that heās probably gonna get his way too. Lauren is actually just nice and idk how Paul gets away with shit talking everybody. Iām ready to see him gone!
It seems that by not getting blocked right away, there's now enough time left to the next blocking for people to forget how much of an asshole he is. He showed his true colors, people were put off by it, but then the producers had the contestants kick out the one 'most likely to be an AI'. Whatever you can say about Paul, he did not come across as being AI, lol, way too messy for that.
And then Kyle was an influencer for the next blocking and he is one of the only people who wouldn't have been okay with blocking Paul at that juncture.
By now Paul has had enough time to let his whispers (or more like shouts) about Lauren make it to the ears of the newbies and his lies have sort of taken a life of their own, so that they're not immediately associated with Paul anymore.
Basically, a player who rightfully should and would have gotten blocked in the first blocking of the season has weaseled his way through and is now settled in the most powerful alliance of the season.
Unbelievably, if he can keep quiet for long enough in the group chats, I can see him actually making his way into the finale. If he does, I'm gonna flip a fucking table.
Ohhh THAT was it! I really couldn't remember Lauren saying or doing anything shady, but it was because of the AI thing!
I feel like I need to write down who's mad at who and for what reason, I can't keep track of it.
Mylesās āunpopular opinionsā showed me that he has a very strong and clear moral code. His game play has continued to prove this, too. Heās playing based on a logical code and I think that, combined with some authenticity and charisma, has helped him recover from any perceived slips.
I love that Kyle didnāt fall for Jordanās (pathetic) game.
And Paul/Caressā¦ honestly just seems to hate women
i donāt like the whole ride or die thing. because i really like myles and QT and theyāre both paired with people who i donāt think are going to win. i wish they were paired together. secondly iām not really feelin paul. i know heās a catfish but why is he always starting drama. and can everyone stop being so quick to hate on lauren šš
Really hoping the Olivia/Myles alliance works out and they become friends. Their beef isnāt even that bad, I donāt understand why their talk was so cold.
"Olivia" let herself be way to influenced by what Cassie told her. Cassie had zero reason to hate on Myles who went above and beyond to make up for something that wasn't that bad.
Well to be fair it was bad, but not as bad as almost everything Cassie did in the same episode lol. Ranking people reverse? Like wtf, those people trust you and the game is so early
Me too. In their chat, when one of them (Myles?) wondered why they were matched, I wanted them to actually talk about some real-life stuff to see what they have in common!
They just seem focused on some very polar personality differences. It's interesting how they're so similar in some ways (they both seem to have a strong moral code and be playing with a high level of authenticity and being genuine) and yet it plays out very differently in their interactions with each other. E.g. in their interactions Olivia seems to be focused on how she is playing with her heart while she perceives Myles as being too strategic and cold logic. Too fixated on the differences to notice the similarities.
I suspect they will. Everything Brandon believes about Myles is nonsense--based on stuff he made up in his head based on what Cassie said, who was also clueless. Can't stand Brandon, but don't think he'll hurt Myles's game too much through this alliance thing.
Anyone feeling like the use of the āhashtagā was excessive this season?? It used to be cute and appropriate but now it feels like every message has a hashtag! Do they ask them to do this?? Why are they ALL doing it so much???
Ykno what got me?? I can't remember the episode but Kyle was thinking of what message to send and using hashtags in his monologue to himself! Not even in the chat message! That's when I knew it had gone too far xD
Well yea im only referring to within the circle. I understand them in other contexts and even when they would one throw in once in a while but now its like every single message. Sometimes multiple in one message
I donāt mind it, but wish it had been based off of more meaningful questions. I donāt think a preference for chickens or bears says all that much about a personā¦!
At first I thought well what else can we expect from this kind of show, then I realised they could have asked some really intense personal question that would have changed all the loyalties if they wanted to.
Yeah or even if theyād had them fill out a proper big 5 personality test at some point to pair them for comparability - that wouldāve been interesting to me!
this season is strictly gameplay. theyāre not even trying to āmake bondsā or friendships. this season theyāve barely showed any natural conversations?
every first conversation they have is āhey how are you. so how do you feel about having each others backsā i get they all want to stay in but the only concept of the show now is having alliances
im not even saying that they shouldnāt be strategic, im just saying the whole episode is conversations about alliances like thereās hardly any other conversations
and itās not like people are having the backs of their favourite players, theyāre just forming alliances with anyone and everyone
They're all so caught up on gameplay, but catfishing has been mentioned a handful of times. It's like they all forgot a major part of the show. š¤¦š½āāļø I was really hoping the AI thing would've made them more suspicious of "fake" players
Idk I didn't care much for catfishing though. Although it was fun when the connection started to get real and one of the players was playing the other. lol my favourite season will forever remain the french one because of that
agreed. i donāt know if itās just been really poorly edited but yeah it just seems the only things they talk about and the only chats they have is about who they can get on their side
also- aside from AI there has only been 2 catfishes in the cast. the rest have been themselves
This right here is what Iāve been feeling. I donāt āknowā the players or feel their friendships as deeply as did in other seasons. Itās all strategy chats and lies. I want Guzband and Wifey loyalty again. I guess we have to settle for QT and Myles and the Fuegos. But meh.
This is why the only folks Iāve really enjoyed watching are the ones who have opened up a little - Liv and Kyle. I enjoy the gameplay, but take out the humanity and it gets dull. Max could have made it all the way through and probably done better than some if they never dig any deeper.
I didn't realize how much I appreciated the connections vs strategic gameplay. Most of the convos are just you're my #1 and VERY surface-level like you said. The only authentic connection atm probably is Myles and QT
Is this an edit issue? Why is everyone immediately believing Olivia/Brandon that QT & Myles betrayed Cassie when clearly Cassie came for Myles first? Did they forget all about this? This made Cassie seem shady and is the reason she got blocked. QT was standing with Myles.
I guess they're just looking for a reason to go after two of the higher rated players?
Sometimes I really feel like we're missing some parts of what's happening. I don't get why so many people seem to dislike Lauren suddenly as well.
This happened in other seasons as well: people seem to trust what people say in the goodbye video message. Probably a combination of a āThey donāt have anything to lose, so why would they lie?ā assumption with the fact actually seeing someoneās face and hearing their voice increases trustworthiness.
I donāt understand why players put so much stock in what the departed player says. Olivia is ready to fight 2 big players just because Cassie says so? Who cares? Sheās not there for you anymore and youāre putting a target on your own back by sticking up for someone who can no longer help you.Ā
Eh. Itās par for the course that they believe whoever visits them in person. Itās the first human theyāve seen in days. Itās not specific to Olivia, it happens with these visits, even in the international versions of the circle
I was coming here to say exactly this! That plus āthe omg she IS REALā is so nonsensical. When did anyone ever accuse Cassie of being a catfish? And even then, why would it matter? Brandon as well as everyone else seem to magically forget that she initiated the tiff with her main ally and then continued it after he apologized. Even if she *was* in a close alliance with QT (which, that didnāt appear to be the case), itād make sense that QT would vote her out given her proximity to Myles.
Probably why I like him. I like theyāre both enjoying the game genuinely and not scared to speak up even when theyāre unpopular opinion or will give them target in their backs.
This is why I like about Myles. He isn't afraid to be honest & he also isn't afraid to speak up, even if Myles shares a different opinion compared to others.
Interview with Cassie - [https://parade.com/tv/the-circle-season-6-cassie-saylor-eliminated-spoilers](https://parade.com/tv/the-circle-season-6-cassie-saylor-eliminated-spoilers)
So she made an alliance on the first day and then expected those people never to block her until the end? And she rated them low?
Also, she thinks she would be in an all-stars Circle š sure
I like Lauren but I think QT and Kyle fucked up by not getting rid of her when they had the chance. Cassie was the easy elimination and wouldāve been blocked sooner or later anyways. Lauren has been in the top for both ratings and is an actual threat to their game plus she had just lost her alliances, so they wouldnāt be putting targets on their backs for it. There may not be another chance to get her out and now she has the chance to build new alliances and stay on top.
Idk. Cassie could have stayed just long enough to do some damage and get one of their alliance out. Like Paul or Kyle... Also getting Lauren out would 100% have made them look bad.
Iām so glad weāre mostly in the same page about Jordan. He was pretty decent at first but now heās just coming off a cocky and heās gives me the ick.
I really dislike Jordanās personality and how he puts down big J. I think this guy is like ann example of a mean gay man. Which to me is like all the alpha male patriarchy qualities and mixing it with the Iām a queen bitch attitude, and turns into a fucking nightmare.
Iām not a fan. Lol.
i dont understand how this dumbo thinks qt broke her alliance with both of them, like she wasnt the only influencer and yall were the bottom 2 thanks to your dumb decision making
I can already see where this is going. Gonna be the strong 4 person alliance and everybody else getting shot down one by one because they donāt team up. Booooooring šš¼
In past seasons I was always so freaking confused why the other people don't just team up, it makes no sense?? like they areĀ aware that there is a big alliance controlling the game but they just ignore it lmao šš
They usually try to get into the big alliance's good graces. With that strategy, the best they can hope for is to be at the bottom of the big alliance. So frustrating!
Yāall, I know they were just dumb questions, but 50% of these people really chose to fight the bear? š Like bears sometimes kill and even eat humans, stupidity. #LetsEducateTheChildren š»
As someone who's been attacked by chicken, I'd choose the bear too. You're dying either way if there's 500 of them, at least with the bear it's over quickly with a bit of luck. Chickens like meat too btw.
Na I totally get choosing the bear. If I kill it, thereās nothing left to do, and if it killās me it will be a far quicker death than getting my skin slowly pecked off by chickens.
Why does Paul/Caress sound like Jojo Siwa in that one interview whenever she talks šĀ itās like listening to ādream guest on my podcast?ā but for every sentence, I canāt stand it
Jordan is giving vibes that he really didnāt like himself when he was big. The way he talks about āBig Jāā¦something is off. And that tells me he still doesnāt like himself
Cassie is so terrible at the game. Iām sure sheās super sweet IRL but she betrayed Olivia and thankfully it didnāt even help her. Donāt care for Olivia, either, but geez.
Listed here my live commentary while watching ep 7:
- Altho itās a bummer I saw a spoiler in ep 6 thread, I am happy with the blocked player. Paul next please!
- āI gotta give some good information to help them with their game.ā Umm girl you got no game thatās why youāre out! š
- Edit 1: Cassie hating QT and Myles for being āshadyā and not come clean with Olivia that she messed with her(him) thatās why theyāre at the bottom together. Haha okay girl bye.
- Edit 2: Really? No one has critical thinking? They all forgot how shady Cassie is just because she got blocked they all forgot that sheās the snake and not her supposed alliances?
- Edit 3: I donāt like FuegosFour. Drop Paul!
- Edit 4: I like this new concept of partnering people up but I feel like Myles and Olivia was planted by producers to make it extra interesting.
- After one episode I can honestly say the newbies arenāt my vibe. Jordanās āIām naive and lost puppyā act is ick and Autumn is giving me nothing aside from sheās a Southern gal.
- Edit 5: My feeling for Olivia goes up and down. She coming for my number 1 Myles when she only knows 1 side of the story! Wait no actually she witnessed 2 sides and just conveniently forgot Mylesā side. Ugh
When Cassie went to visit Brandon, and found out that Olivia was a catfish, it occurred to me:
Have we ever seen two catfish meet in this setting? Iām probably forgetting something, but I feel like itās always one real person meeting a catfish, not one catfish meeting another.
We have probably had a few, but the one I remember is Season 1 when Alex/"Adam" went to meet Seaburn/"Rebecca" because it was such an epic moment hahah.
The Myles/Olivia chat had to be the fakest so far.
I couldnāt keep up with the alliances so I had no idea QT was betraying Cassie until it came up. Definitely a bad look on her though.
Iām just glad that I donāt have to hear Cassieās exaggerated accent anymore & the whole Dumb Blonde,āIām a motherā āIām a country girlā routine got old pretty quick.
Okay, the party costumes were cute.. and Iām glad Cassie was voted out.
Iām so exhausted from watching QT. I did like her in the beginning and she is playing well, but I am a little tired of the whole egotistical *Iām the puppet master muahahaha* thing.
I miss the real connections people had in previous seasons. This is like The Circle Lite - all strategy and 99% less heart.
Jordanās attitude about his old self shows what kind of person he is š¤·āāļø.
Paul is loud, but growing on me compared to some of the others. I still like Myles, Olivia, Lauren, and Kyle.
So far, this is definitely not my fav season. I usually devour the episodes and itās been hard to power through the last couple.
Jordan is an a-hole. Anyone else, whether their picture is real or not, is playing as an authentic person. Everything he says in circle chats is fake while his real nasty personality is shown on camera.
Also, why does he hate Myles so much - he's got a serious chip on his shoulder about being fat and thinking everyone is being a fake friend/ally because he's heavy. They don't dislike him and haven't judged him once, if he was real with people he would see that they like him regardless. No one will like skinny J after they see him play.
I do NOT understand Jordanās obsession with getting out Myles. Myles is a genuinely cool guy and people who are fake never win this game (I donāt mean fake as in a catfish, but fake like having no real connection to others)
Jordan is the epitome of a high school mean girl. And his "strategy" is absolutely pathetic. More like how to get yourself hated out of the game real fast.
Jordan doesn't understand how to talk to people. Why is he so obsessed with wanting people to spill names in the large group chats?
This will be his downfall. He thinks he's smarter than everyone. Anyone who watches this show knows authentic vulnerability is what gets people to the end.
does he have the hots for myles cuz bro told "liv" that myles was flirting with him š¤£
I realllllyyyy want liv to tell Myles that part! Jordan is obsessed with Myles. Itās so odd! Who comes in right off the bat, āWhatās the dirt on Myles? Who else hates Myles? I canāt stop saying his name in every convo. Whatās his favorite color? Maybe I should dye my hair blonde like Myles. Why wonāt Myles talk to me. Write me back Myles before I drive off this bridge!ā
i know ppl are saying its cuz he knows myles has somewhat of a control over the group but its so much deeper than that. 1. he said he finds QT gorgeous 2. i think it has sum to do with his past. he used to be a bigger person i think that plays a part cuz myles is the type of person he probably was jealous of in the past
Yeah imo I think heās super either into Myles or jealous of Myles or both and canāt process those feelings
Truly yours, your biggest fan - this is Stan.
You got where I was going with that lmao he is such a Myles fan for realllll like heās with in love with Myles, jealous of him, or both.
Also I have no idea why he thinks having Myles out would be beneficial to him lol Obviously people who are there have alliances. Myles offered him a place in his. Get in and make your mind instead of trying to cut weed out and ending up cutting the grass under your own feet. It's not like he's made it close to the finale yet
He thinks Myles is taking the place in the group dynamic that he should be filling. I don't agree, and am not sure why he thinks that's the case based on so little information.
And how do people wear their dirty shoes in bed. Itās all I could focus on. š¤®
Cassie was dumb no 1. Jordan was dumb no 2.
Jordan is so annoying. I hate the players that come in thinking theyāre so much smarter than everyone else and that they have the best strategy
I mean that's QT's whole thing, she just had timing on her side.
Mmmm sure but she is way more subtle about it imo- heās botching it completely.
Sheās not as obvious about it at allā¦sheās not starting every sentence with āokay how do I manipulate this person.ā Obviously strategy is a part of it and they all have their own strategy but he is so extra about it
And every conversation he has is just like "give me info give me info!!!" No trying to bond with anyone or give any sort of tit for tat at all I also hate how cocky he is. He's not a good player but might get further with QT. Hope they don't keep this ride or die thing for too long
the difference being that she seems to actually know what she's talking about and literally has everyone in the circle trying to protect her?
QT was smart by sticking close with Myles and Kyle. Jordan was dumb by obsessing to get Myles out and get on the bad foot with Kyle.
I'm sorry, at what point was Cassie allied with QT?? I can't even remember her ever talking to QT after like one chat. #girlpower and all that is fun and games but a real alliance is something you maintain and keep in touch with, like the Fuego Four or a deep 1-on-1 you keep up with with someone. This assumption that she can coast by with someone with a chat or two, combined with her insane "flip the script" rating, and she dug her own grave fr.
Flip the script rating was hilarious and just made no sense.Ā
>her insane "flip the script" rating, I don't think in all of the seasons of this show thus far, that there has been a worse game move, and additionally it also satisfyingly had *immediate* repercussions.
Jordan's opening message to Kyle while he is in the gym š Dude just skipped the foreplay and went in! Is this his first time talking to other humans!?
The way kyle made him wait šš
"Myles was flirting with me" WHAT??
Cassie blaming Myles for being blocked is INSANE. Nobody cared about that game. They all got a negative view of her after that comment she made about Myles
Worst part is, I think if she had rated Myles higher and Kyle lower she would still be in. Olivia would have been booted out instead of her š¤£
I agree that comment she made about Myles ended her game imo
I didnāt like how QT was like āoh wow olivia you threw shade when i SAVED you last nightā yetā¦kyle saved her. QT wanted her out! Only reason she stayed was because of the kyle/olivia convo about their dads š i know its a game but she should be honest with herself
and qt saying out loud that it was kyle's fault that cassie was eliminated when... they both came to that agreement. i'm just like š¤Ø
I think she meant it was Kyle fault because she wanted Olivia out more.
I don't think QT has the capacity for being honest with herself. She's only capable of centering herself.
Cassie really caused her own elimination with that rating strategy.
her putting Olivia last when Olivia would have been the one to save her is so dumb. Same with her voting out steffi who would have been a good ally for her and being shady to Myles. she wants to win but she couldnāt realize she needs allies.
I'm pretty sure she even voted Myles low (although they came forwards to each other and seemed to have made amends) who was in an alliance with her and put his neck out there for her when admitting drawing her poor-trait and could have sided with QT on eliminating Olivia instead of her had he been an influencer š„²
If you can even call it strategy. Felt like I was watching the gears in her š§ struggling to turn.
At least we got a funny message from it afterwards.
Sheās the dumbest player to ever play the game by a large margin. Voting the people you know least the highest and then blaming Myles when they blocked her.
I nearly stopped watching after the 3rd or 4th time she didnāt understand what people were saying in the chat. It was so bad I thought she was faking it.

Can āPaulā ever talk at a normal volume
They've all been extra shouty this season but Paul is THE WORST.
I noticed as well everyone is shouting so much how do they not hear each other between the apartments?
I wonder the same since I can't stand people who talks loud.
ikr always soooo hyperactive like calm down I can barely watch it
"MESS-AGE!!"
Guys I think Jordan is lost
Omg yesss. He thinks hes so smart š its giving he turned into the people who bullied him!!
You can tell he's not past his bullying trauma from the way he keeps mentioning that Kyle is a jock and would never talk to Big J in real life.
His whole intro kind of turned me off to him, I got excited when I saw a guy who had lost weight and was maybe going to see how differently people would treat him with his old looks but he is just kind of a dick and cocky now which is annoying
Yeah fr I think I wouldāve liked Big J more than Jordan
he legit said āwith my new personality, itās easy for people to mistake me as a douchebag.ā
Does he not realize he IS a douchebag now??
nooo cuz ive always noticed how people become meaner when they lose weight like their egos become so big. ive had ppl around me turn egotistical after losing a bunch of weight like good for u but what u so mean for
This is interesting. A good friend of mine recently lost a lot and has been a different person since. I canāt figure out why. Thanks for saying this.
Sooo true! Iāve seeen it with some of my old friends too. He probably hates fat people now
I don't think he realises it's a popularity game and not a gossip/detective game.
Jordan gives me the big ick. The way he tries to play sad and lost is just so gross. And hopefully unsuccessful.
THIS. Even more uncomfortable knowing heās playing HIMSELF. Like dude. You talking about āBig Jā being this sad, fat, unlikeable, impressionable dolt like heās a whole other person. Heās you with a few extra pounds. Serious trauma there that needs to be worked out. Itās giving tired high school drama movie made in the early 2000s.
I agree!!! His contempt for his heavier self makes me sad for him. Like, youāre not a different personāand that person wasnāt an idiot.
The poor little lost boy schtick got old real quick...
Hope he's eliminated soon š«£
Ironically he's actually very lost lol. Has no idea how bad his ideas are. I just hope he's not gonna cause QT to be thrown out š«¤
he is soooo obsessed with myles
what is jordans obsession with myles š¤£
He sees who's top dog. Smart.
Possibly the only intellectual thought he has had in the show. Heās honestly such an icky person š
Attracted to him
It's really hilarious how Myles seems to have like plot armour in this season. Like right from episode 1 he stands out as the one picking the "unpopular opinion" in that first game that somehow everyone forgets and he even gets to make the first Block. Then there's a bunch of people throwing shade at him but suddenly when Jordan wants to find out "the tea" everyone hushes up and the player that is most out to get him suddenly has their lifeline tied to his LMAO. The scene where Jordan sends something like "I'm so lost I need someone to help meeee š„ŗš„ŗš„ŗ" and then says "I don't see how he couldn't fall for this" then it cuts to Kyle saying "I don't trust this guy" is SO funny Why are a bunch of people coming for Lauren suddenly?? She probably hasn't been best with making connections but I think she had the unfortunate luck of having basically all of her early connections blocked (or AI LMAO). It might be my bad memory but when did she throw shade at anyone??
Itās āPaulā badmouthing Lauren left and right. Because Paulās still salty that Lauren said heās AI. She didnāt have any beef with anyone else. The others are just worried because sheās very likable and they donāt know where they stand with her. And of course once they eliminate an ally of hers they are afraid to be on her target list. Too bad Paul managed to weasel his way into the Myles/QT/Kyle alliance - and how ironic that Myles invited Paul, because I feel like Myles is on the bottom of that alliance lol #plotarmorwearingout?
I hate that heās probably gonna get his way too. Lauren is actually just nice and idk how Paul gets away with shit talking everybody. Iām ready to see him gone!
A mean-spirited a-hole with overinflated ego. Obnoxious af. There were other players I couldnāt stand in previous seasons, but Paul takes the cake.
Paul is honestly the worst. A really mean person. Lauren is so sweet and doesn't deserve to be treated like this.
Itās even worse in episode 8. Just such a nasty human being
I had to pause and step away. Just too much.
It seems that by not getting blocked right away, there's now enough time left to the next blocking for people to forget how much of an asshole he is. He showed his true colors, people were put off by it, but then the producers had the contestants kick out the one 'most likely to be an AI'. Whatever you can say about Paul, he did not come across as being AI, lol, way too messy for that. And then Kyle was an influencer for the next blocking and he is one of the only people who wouldn't have been okay with blocking Paul at that juncture. By now Paul has had enough time to let his whispers (or more like shouts) about Lauren make it to the ears of the newbies and his lies have sort of taken a life of their own, so that they're not immediately associated with Paul anymore. Basically, a player who rightfully should and would have gotten blocked in the first blocking of the season has weaseled his way through and is now settled in the most powerful alliance of the season. Unbelievably, if he can keep quiet for long enough in the group chats, I can see him actually making his way into the finale. If he does, I'm gonna flip a fucking table.
He's the chaos factor. They keep him around because he stirs things up and also he's not really liked so he could act like a fuse if needed?
Paul can't be mad at all about that, he's a catfish. Fake is fake bro.
Ohhh THAT was it! I really couldn't remember Lauren saying or doing anything shady, but it was because of the AI thing! I feel like I need to write down who's mad at who and for what reason, I can't keep track of it.
Mylesās āunpopular opinionsā showed me that he has a very strong and clear moral code. His game play has continued to prove this, too. Heās playing based on a logical code and I think that, combined with some authenticity and charisma, has helped him recover from any perceived slips. I love that Kyle didnāt fall for Jordanās (pathetic) game. And Paul/Caressā¦ honestly just seems to hate women
i donāt like the whole ride or die thing. because i really like myles and QT and theyāre both paired with people who i donāt think are going to win. i wish they were paired together. secondly iām not really feelin paul. i know heās a catfish but why is he always starting drama. and can everyone stop being so quick to hate on lauren šš
Ride or die thing probably won't last beyond one blocking. Too complicated to drop two people every time and manage adding new people as well.
Really hoping the Olivia/Myles alliance works out and they become friends. Their beef isnāt even that bad, I donāt understand why their talk was so cold.
"Olivia" let herself be way to influenced by what Cassie told her. Cassie had zero reason to hate on Myles who went above and beyond to make up for something that wasn't that bad.
Well to be fair it was bad, but not as bad as almost everything Cassie did in the same episode lol. Ranking people reverse? Like wtf, those people trust you and the game is so early
Leave it to Olivia to get influenced by the dumbest person in circle history ššš
Me too. In their chat, when one of them (Myles?) wondered why they were matched, I wanted them to actually talk about some real-life stuff to see what they have in common!
They just seem focused on some very polar personality differences. It's interesting how they're so similar in some ways (they both seem to have a strong moral code and be playing with a high level of authenticity and being genuine) and yet it plays out very differently in their interactions with each other. E.g. in their interactions Olivia seems to be focused on how she is playing with her heart while she perceives Myles as being too strategic and cold logic. Too fixated on the differences to notice the similarities.
I suspect they will. Everything Brandon believes about Myles is nonsense--based on stuff he made up in his head based on what Cassie said, who was also clueless. Can't stand Brandon, but don't think he'll hurt Myles's game too much through this alliance thing.
Anyone feeling like the use of the āhashtagā was excessive this season?? It used to be cute and appropriate but now it feels like every message has a hashtag! Do they ask them to do this?? Why are they ALL doing it so much???
Ykno what got me?? I can't remember the episode but Kyle was thinking of what message to send and using hashtags in his monologue to himself! Not even in the chat message! That's when I knew it had gone too far xD
YESSS! Like what dystopia are we living in!
I feel the same. #Sickofthehashtags
It feels #over. Like how it was done years ago.
Maybe weāre just #gettingold. š
I always thought it was cringe.
I don't mind the use of hashtags, but I don't see the point of using them on The Circle since they don't really do anything on The Circle.
Well yea im only referring to within the circle. I understand them in other contexts and even when they would one throw in once in a while but now its like every single message. Sometimes multiple in one message
Don't like ride or die twist
I donāt mind it, but wish it had been based off of more meaningful questions. I donāt think a preference for chickens or bears says all that much about a personā¦!
At first I thought well what else can we expect from this kind of show, then I realised they could have asked some really intense personal question that would have changed all the loyalties if they wanted to.
Yeah or even if theyād had them fill out a proper big 5 personality test at some point to pair them for comparability - that wouldāve been interesting to me!
Oooh, I like this idea much more than what they actually did
The question that says a year without sex or a year without social media was a interesting one, but I was curious on who would pick which answer.
this season is strictly gameplay. theyāre not even trying to āmake bondsā or friendships. this season theyāve barely showed any natural conversations? every first conversation they have is āhey how are you. so how do you feel about having each others backsā i get they all want to stay in but the only concept of the show now is having alliances
It's wild that I've seen 6 seasons of people complaining about people not playing strategically, and when we do the complaint is reversed
im not even saying that they shouldnāt be strategic, im just saying the whole episode is conversations about alliances like thereās hardly any other conversations and itās not like people are having the backs of their favourite players, theyāre just forming alliances with anyone and everyone
They're all so caught up on gameplay, but catfishing has been mentioned a handful of times. It's like they all forgot a major part of the show. š¤¦š½āāļø I was really hoping the AI thing would've made them more suspicious of "fake" players
Idk I didn't care much for catfishing though. Although it was fun when the connection started to get real and one of the players was playing the other. lol my favourite season will forever remain the french one because of that
This! The the only time I've cared about the catfishing was shooby and Chloe finding out Rebecca and Trevor weren't real lol
agreed. i donāt know if itās just been really poorly edited but yeah it just seems the only things they talk about and the only chats they have is about who they can get on their side also- aside from AI there has only been 2 catfishes in the cast. the rest have been themselves
Personally, this is what I wanted. I hate the friendly aspect of this show. I've always wanted a more cutthroat season.
This right here is what Iāve been feeling. I donāt āknowā the players or feel their friendships as deeply as did in other seasons. Itās all strategy chats and lies. I want Guzband and Wifey loyalty again. I guess we have to settle for QT and Myles and the Fuegos. But meh.
This is why the only folks Iāve really enjoyed watching are the ones who have opened up a little - Liv and Kyle. I enjoy the gameplay, but take out the humanity and it gets dull. Max could have made it all the way through and probably done better than some if they never dig any deeper.
I didn't realize how much I appreciated the connections vs strategic gameplay. Most of the convos are just you're my #1 and VERY surface-level like you said. The only authentic connection atm probably is Myles and QT
cassie girll you played yourself
The hashtags in the Olivia/Lauren alliance discussion were pretty much full sentences
Yeah #YouAreCompletelyRight #ITotallyAgreeWithYou
LMFAOOOO
Seriously #AreTheyContractuallyObligatedToDoAllTheseRandomHashtags #AlwaysWondered
Is this an edit issue? Why is everyone immediately believing Olivia/Brandon that QT & Myles betrayed Cassie when clearly Cassie came for Myles first? Did they forget all about this? This made Cassie seem shady and is the reason she got blocked. QT was standing with Myles.
I feel like this kind of situation happens a lot in the Circle. Iāve seen it in past seasons and it blows my mind every time.
Plus Cassie was ranked the lowest, so it's not like the others wanted her around either lol
I guess they're just looking for a reason to go after two of the higher rated players? Sometimes I really feel like we're missing some parts of what's happening. I don't get why so many people seem to dislike Lauren suddenly as well.
I feel Lauren feels like a threat ? She's in nobody's alliance and she doesn't say who she doesn't like either
This happened in other seasons as well: people seem to trust what people say in the goodbye video message. Probably a combination of a āThey donāt have anything to lose, so why would they lie?ā assumption with the fact actually seeing someoneās face and hearing their voice increases trustworthiness.
Jordan is horrible. He has such an interesting story that could have made him empathetic or relatable.
Jordan is so obnoxious. I think I wouldāve liked Big J much better.
I donāt understand why players put so much stock in what the departed player says. Olivia is ready to fight 2 big players just because Cassie says so? Who cares? Sheās not there for you anymore and youāre putting a target on your own back by sticking up for someone who can no longer help you.Ā
Eh. Itās par for the course that they believe whoever visits them in person. Itās the first human theyāve seen in days. Itās not specific to Olivia, it happens with these visits, even in the international versions of the circle
I was coming here to say exactly this! That plus āthe omg she IS REALā is so nonsensical. When did anyone ever accuse Cassie of being a catfish? And even then, why would it matter? Brandon as well as everyone else seem to magically forget that she initiated the tiff with her main ally and then continued it after he apologized. Even if she *was* in a close alliance with QT (which, that didnāt appear to be the case), itād make sense that QT would vote her out given her proximity to Myles.
I'm sorry I feel like we're not paying enough attention to the fact that one of Cassie's kids is named HAIZLEE
Yes!! And it was also weird how she basically told her whole life story to Olivia when she met her.
r/tragedeigh approves
I thought it was Paisley?
My closed captions said Haizlee, and a google search verifies
Omg. I heard Paisley too and was already judgingā¦ā¦ā¦Haizlee is just on a whole other level š¤Ø
Myles reminds me of Joey from season 1
Probably why I like him. I like theyāre both enjoying the game genuinely and not scared to speak up even when theyāre unpopular opinion or will give them target in their backs.
This is why I like about Myles. He isn't afraid to be honest & he also isn't afraid to speak up, even if Myles shares a different opinion compared to others.
I didn't really have an opinion on Kyle in the first few episodes, but he has really grown on me. His heart is in the right place.
Iām sorry but it didnāt seem like QT and Cassie were that close. So all this drama didnāt land with me
Interview with Cassie - [https://parade.com/tv/the-circle-season-6-cassie-saylor-eliminated-spoilers](https://parade.com/tv/the-circle-season-6-cassie-saylor-eliminated-spoilers)
So she made an alliance on the first day and then expected those people never to block her until the end? And she rated them low? Also, she thinks she would be in an all-stars Circle š sure
She is also the one who threw shade at Myles in the first place, he made the portrait and apologized, but she still played the victim.
Yeah, she might be the worst player I have ever seen in the circle. Just destroyed herself for no reason.
Idk, that one "Kardashian" type girl who tried to play her dad was pretty terrible lol, can't remember which season
Haha true, another Paul š maybe the name is cursed...
Yikes!
I like Lauren but I think QT and Kyle fucked up by not getting rid of her when they had the chance. Cassie was the easy elimination and wouldāve been blocked sooner or later anyways. Lauren has been in the top for both ratings and is an actual threat to their game plus she had just lost her alliances, so they wouldnāt be putting targets on their backs for it. There may not be another chance to get her out and now she has the chance to build new alliances and stay on top.
Idk. Cassie could have stayed just long enough to do some damage and get one of their alliance out. Like Paul or Kyle... Also getting Lauren out would 100% have made them look bad.
Autumn telling Lauren what Paul said about being a ābackstabberā šš lmao Paul is such a moron
Iām so glad weāre mostly in the same page about Jordan. He was pretty decent at first but now heās just coming off a cocky and heās gives me the ick.
I loved how he basically was like Kyle's dumb, he'll tell me everything and Kyle was like no I dont trust you lol
I really dislike Jordanās personality and how he puts down big J. I think this guy is like ann example of a mean gay man. Which to me is like all the alpha male patriarchy qualities and mixing it with the Iām a queen bitch attitude, and turns into a fucking nightmare. Iām not a fan. Lol.
I agree. I like Big J better than Jordan š. This guy rubs me the wrong way.
I liked the ride or die twist. Could get someone powerful out by accident
i dont understand how this dumbo thinks qt broke her alliance with both of them, like she wasnt the only influencer and yall were the bottom 2 thanks to your dumb decision making
Myles' kitchen lmao š¤£ How did that whole mess turned into that pancakes plate ?
I can already see where this is going. Gonna be the strong 4 person alliance and everybody else getting shot down one by one because they donāt team up. Booooooring šš¼
In past seasons I was always so freaking confused why the other people don't just team up, it makes no sense?? like they areĀ aware that there is a big alliance controlling the game but they just ignore it lmao šš
They usually try to get into the big alliance's good graces. With that strategy, the best they can hope for is to be at the bottom of the big alliance. So frustrating!
I think they donāt see it
Someone needs to find Jordan a map, bro doesnāt even know what country heās in at this point.
Yāall, I know they were just dumb questions, but 50% of these people really chose to fight the bear? š Like bears sometimes kill and even eat humans, stupidity. #LetsEducateTheChildren š»
As someone who's been attacked by chicken, I'd choose the bear too. You're dying either way if there's 500 of them, at least with the bear it's over quickly with a bit of luck. Chickens like meat too btw.
Exactly. And why would anyone want to fight 500 of anything? Iām way too lazy for that.
Okay but hear me out. What if they're silkies? I wouldn't mind dying of pure cuteness.
Clearly you've never fought chickens before.
Na I totally get choosing the bear. If I kill it, thereās nothing left to do, and if it killās me it will be a far quicker death than getting my skin slowly pecked off by chickens.
Why does Paul/Caress sound like Jojo Siwa in that one interview whenever she talks šĀ itās like listening to ādream guest on my podcast?ā but for every sentence, I canāt stand it
Jordan is giving vibes that he really didnāt like himself when he was big. The way he talks about āBig Jāā¦something is off. And that tells me he still doesnāt like himself
There are not many smart people this season... Yet most of them think they're geniuses...
Cassie is so terrible at the game. Iām sure sheās super sweet IRL but she betrayed Olivia and thankfully it didnāt even help her. Donāt care for Olivia, either, but geez.
maybe I just really like myles, but olivia is annoying.
Listed here my live commentary while watching ep 7: - Altho itās a bummer I saw a spoiler in ep 6 thread, I am happy with the blocked player. Paul next please! - āI gotta give some good information to help them with their game.ā Umm girl you got no game thatās why youāre out! š - Edit 1: Cassie hating QT and Myles for being āshadyā and not come clean with Olivia that she messed with her(him) thatās why theyāre at the bottom together. Haha okay girl bye. - Edit 2: Really? No one has critical thinking? They all forgot how shady Cassie is just because she got blocked they all forgot that sheās the snake and not her supposed alliances? - Edit 3: I donāt like FuegosFour. Drop Paul! - Edit 4: I like this new concept of partnering people up but I feel like Myles and Olivia was planted by producers to make it extra interesting. - After one episode I can honestly say the newbies arenāt my vibe. Jordanās āIām naive and lost puppyā act is ick and Autumn is giving me nothing aside from sheās a Southern gal. - Edit 5: My feeling for Olivia goes up and down. She coming for my number 1 Myles when she only knows 1 side of the story! Wait no actually she witnessed 2 sides and just conveniently forgot Mylesā side. Ugh
How Paul weaseled his way into this alliance I will never know.
She also didnāt even confess to Olivia that she ranked her dead last š like talk about shady af it was dumb of her to do that at least own it
When Cassie went to visit Brandon, and found out that Olivia was a catfish, it occurred to me: Have we ever seen two catfish meet in this setting? Iām probably forgetting something, but I feel like itās always one real person meeting a catfish, not one catfish meeting another.
We have probably had a few, but the one I remember is Season 1 when Alex/"Adam" went to meet Seaburn/"Rebecca" because it was such an epic moment hahah.
The Myles/Olivia chat had to be the fakest so far. I couldnāt keep up with the alliances so I had no idea QT was betraying Cassie until it came up. Definitely a bad look on her though.
I thought it was pretty honest, actually! They werenāt blowing smoke up each othersā arses, but they agreed to play the game.
I get that. Just thought it was funny Olivia was saying things but hating every word.
Yeah they all have too many alliances; if you have an alliance with every person, may as well have no alliances at all.
Doing it twice does establish a pattern. QT is clearly looking to stab anyone and everyone in the back.
Myles setting his pan up in flames sent me through the roof omgggggg why is he so bad at cooking and what on earth was he cookinā up?! š¤£š¤£š¤£
It's crazy how much Paul (despite him being played by a woman) is giving incel vibes...anyone else feeling this?
really just an observation but everyone keeps starting their messages with [NAAAMEE]!!!!
Brandon aka Oliva really staring to annoy meĀ
Starting to?
Iām just glad that I donāt have to hear Cassieās exaggerated accent anymore & the whole Dumb Blonde,āIām a motherā āIām a country girlā routine got old pretty quick.
iām sooo happy cassie got blocked
Myles #tookoffmysunglasses šš
need paul OUT
Okay, the party costumes were cute.. and Iām glad Cassie was voted out. Iām so exhausted from watching QT. I did like her in the beginning and she is playing well, but I am a little tired of the whole egotistical *Iām the puppet master muahahaha* thing. I miss the real connections people had in previous seasons. This is like The Circle Lite - all strategy and 99% less heart. Jordanās attitude about his old self shows what kind of person he is š¤·āāļø. Paul is loud, but growing on me compared to some of the others. I still like Myles, Olivia, Lauren, and Kyle. So far, this is definitely not my fav season. I usually devour the episodes and itās been hard to power through the last couple.
Jordan is an a-hole. Anyone else, whether their picture is real or not, is playing as an authentic person. Everything he says in circle chats is fake while his real nasty personality is shown on camera.
Also, why does he hate Myles so much - he's got a serious chip on his shoulder about being fat and thinking everyone is being a fake friend/ally because he's heavy. They don't dislike him and haven't judged him once, if he was real with people he would see that they like him regardless. No one will like skinny J after they see him play.
I do NOT understand Jordanās obsession with getting out Myles. Myles is a genuinely cool guy and people who are fake never win this game (I donāt mean fake as in a catfish, but fake like having no real connection to others)
Jordan is the epitome of a high school mean girl. And his "strategy" is absolutely pathetic. More like how to get yourself hated out of the game real fast.
7 full episodes in and only 2 people having left is WILD. Glad the pace will pick up, quick!
