| Power | Evidence and Response | Why It Mattered and Where It Stopped |
|---|---|---|
| Informational Power | Devens received the hidden Diamond Veto and told Dee, but the unused resource did not change his six power ratings. | That response supports the rating. The episode did not show the same influence reaching beyond the people named here. |
| Relationships and Information | Devens ↔ Dee 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 Devens Stands After Episode 9
At this cutoff, Informational Power stood out most in Devens’s score. The clearest example came through this exchange: Devens received the hidden Diamond Veto and told Dee, but the unused resource did not change his six power ratings.
Bottom Line: Devens could still use several forms of influence (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 relationship’s value depends on whether Dee changes a vote, nomination, protection, or information choice.
06
Performance, Structure, and Chance
Kamu’s HOH win gave her safety, nomination authority, and credible replacement consequences. Lyric, Mallory, and LaTrice became nominated pawns, while Jason faced concealed pressure. The Time Capsule twist gave Devens a Diamond Veto, but he had not used it. Veto access and chance remained future evidence.
07
Best Move Right Now
Best Move Right Now: Keep the Diamond Veto secret while asking Dee for one concrete warning about when it would be useful.
What Would Show It Worked: Dee continues protecting the information and gives advice that changes Devens’s timing.
08
What the Rating Means
Informational Power stood above the other parts of Devens’s Episode 9 profile. In Devens’s game, the practical evidence involved information that changed plans or understanding.
