Current Ratings
Clearest Supporting Evidence
| Power | Evidence and Response | Why It Mattered and Where It Stopped |
|---|---|---|
| Referent Power | Barrett voted with the Toolshed while privately wanting the alliance weakened and feeling undervalued inside it. | That response supports the rating. The episode did not show the same influence reaching beyond the people named here. |
| Relationships and Information | Barrett ↔ Drew was the most relevant relationship path at this cutoff. | The relationship mattered because it changed a real choice. The alliance name alone did not prove wider influence. |

Position Analysis
Where Barrett Stands After Episode 8
The strongest part of Barrett’s profile came from Referent Power and Informational Power. A concrete response supports that profile: Barrett voted with the Toolshed while privately wanting the alliance weakened and feeling undervalued inside it.
Bottom Line: Barrett could still use several forms of influence (Reward 2, Expert 2, Referent 3, and Informational 3). Barrett produced a meaningful response, but its reach remained limited to the evidence above. A concrete choice from Drew would reveal how far the relationship can reach.
06
Performance, Structure, and Chance
Jason’s Blockbuster win gave temporary safety and changed the final matchup. Rome’s lack of veto access and Blockbuster loss narrowed his escape routes. The 12–1 vote still reflected individual choices rather than one automatic alliance response. All Week 2 formal authority and Safety Locks expired at the cycle boundary.
07
Best Move Right Now
Best Move Right Now: Ask Drew for one clear commitment before the next decision.
What Would Show It Worked: Drew follows through by changing a vote, nomination, protection, or information choice.
08
What the Rating Means
Barrett’s Episode 8 profile leaned most heavily on Referent Power and Informational Power. For Barrett, that meant the clearest influence came from relationships that produced trust or protection and information that changed plans or understanding.
