Current Power

These are the clearest and most consequential examples supporting Barrett’s six current power ratings—not every observed or attempted use of power.

Current Ratings

Legitimate Power1

No official role, game rule, or accepted promise gave the player influence here.

Reward Power2

A limited benefit or protection promise produces a response.

Coercive Power1

No threat or possible consequence clearly changed another player’s response.

Expert Power2

Ability is visible, but other players have not repeatedly followed that judgment.

Referent Power3

Several voluntary relationships provide trust, protection, or coordination.

Informational Power3

Information repeatedly shapes planning or choices across several relationships.

Clearest Supporting Evidence

Relationships and InformationBarrett ↔ Drew was the most important relationship path at this cutoff.The bond mattered only to choices it actually changed; the relationship or alliance name did not add automatic credit.

03

Relationships and Alliances

Most Significant Relationship

Barrett ↔ Drew · Relationship to Watch

In Episode 12, Barrett could still look to Drew for trust, information, or protection. After Episode 12, the relationship earns more credit only if that support changes a real decision for Barrett.

Most Significant Alliance or Group

Jugglers · Strong pair under pressure

For Barrett in Episode 12, the pair retained a direct bond while wider exposure made their other alliance positions less secure.

Power Shifts

Barrett’s Power Ratings Hold at 12 Through the Blockbuster and Eviction

Total Power Score: 12 → 12

What Changed: No individual power rating changed.

What Stayed the Same: Legitimate Power 1, Reward Power 2, Coercive Power 1, Expert Power 2, Referent Power 3, and Informational Power 3.

Position Analysis

Where Barrett Stands After Episode 12

Referent Power and Informational Power remained the strongest part of Barrett’s profile. That reading fits the Episode 12 evidence: Barrett yielded his preferred Mallory protection path after her safety win and kept several working ties.

Bottom Line: Barrett still had these forms of influence available (Reward 2, Expert 2, Referent 3, and Informational 3). The episode confirmed where Barrett’s influence worked without proving wider control. The next test is whether that relationship supplies a vote or protection when the decision becomes final.

06

Performance, Structure, and Chance

Mallory’s one-tape Blockbuster win determined the final matchup. Jason’s loss removed his last performance path to safety. Kamu’s office created the nomination structure, and that office expired after the vote. The 12–0 result still records twelve player choices rather than automatic power credit for the majority.

The Episode 12 competition and ceremony changed the choices around Barrett. That record did not show Barrett causing a repeated new response, so the Episode 12 score remained 12.

07

Best Move Right Now

Best Move Right Now: Choose one concrete commitment to request from Drew: a vote, a warning, or protection.

What Would Show It Worked: The promised vote, warning, or protection arrives when Barrett needs it.

08

What the Rating Means

Referent Power and Informational Power were the strongest part of Barrett’s Episode 12 score. In Barrett’s game, the evidence came from relationships that produced trust or protection and information that changed plans or understanding.
