Current Power

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

Current Ratings

Legitimate Power2

A limited agreement or accepted promise gives the player some influence.

Reward Power3

Repeated credible benefits influence several decisions or relationships.

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 Power4

Information repeatedly shapes understanding and decisions across groups.

Informational PowerDevens retained broad information and protection networks while keeping the Diamond Veto unused.The named response supports the current rating. Its reach stops where another player chose differently or no additional response was demonstrated.
Relationships and InformationDevens ↔ Dee 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

Devens ↔ Dee · Relationship to Watch

The relationship with Dee remained Devens’s most important connection at the Episode 12 cutoff. The next test after Episode 12 is whether someone in that relationship gives Devens a real vote, warning, or protection.

Most Significant Alliance or Group

Wolfpack · Current information channel

For Devens in Episode 12, the smaller group shared target and vote information while its ability to survive changing offices remained under test.

Power Shifts

Devens’s Power Ratings Hold at 15 Through the Blockbuster and Eviction

Total Power Score: 15 → 15

Why: Devens retained broad information and protection networks while keeping the Diamond Veto unused.

What Changed: No individual power rating changed.

What Stayed the Same: Legitimate Power 2, Reward Power 3, Coercive Power 1, Expert Power 2, Referent Power 3, and Informational Power 4.

Position Analysis

Where Devens Stands After Episode 12

At this cutoff, Informational Power stood out most in Devens’s score. The clearest example came through this exchange: Devens retained broad information and protection networks while keeping the Diamond Veto unused.

Bottom Line: Devens still had these forms of influence available (Legitimate 2, Reward 3, Expert 2, Referent 3, and Informational 4). The influence was real at this cutoff, though the next choice could expose its limit. 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.

For Devens, the Episode 12 events changed danger or opportunity without showing a new, repeated pattern of influence. Devens’s Total Power Score therefore stayed at 15 at the Episode 12 cutoff.

07

Best Move Right Now

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

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

08

What the Rating Means

Informational Power stood above the other parts of Devens’s Episode 12 profile. In Devens’s game, the practical evidence involved information that changed plans or understanding.
