Yea I mean not trying to be too hard her but there's a difference imo between people who make moves to further themselves (Veronica, Susie, etc) vs those who just ride with their friends (Nany and most people fit into the latter). Nany did well on the last 3 seasons because she had a built-in bulletproof pregame alliance and themes that didn't mess up her game too much. Anytime she's had to play from the bottom alliance or had a theme that hurt her (ie. Last place goes in), she's been mediocre socially at best. 

She's good at being loyal and that's the extent of her social/political chops. 

Yeah i'm trying to think of any moves spearheaded by Nany the last couple of seasons and i'm coming up blank.

- Kam (and Leroy) was running Double Agents so she was protected and never won a mission. At least she won a skull

- Still won no dailes and was protected by the big brother alliance and skated by being the worst girl on the emerald team.

- Bananas was wearing the pants all of ride or dies but she finally won a daily again.

The third bullet factually is not true if you watched the season lol Bananas lost most of the missions for them and Nany had to check him to take the game serious...she won a daily won a solo elim and won 2 eliminations against girls twice her size

Winning those eliminations isn't political or strategic though right?

I think Nany is playing a solid game and I was glad to see her win some eliminations.  I just don't think she's great socially or politically.  Solid.

It's not strategic to get your partner to take the game seriously and stop making them look like they aren't trying in challlenges/adding a target on your back? I guess you and I would play the game different because it's pointless to politic with other teams if your own team is a mess

Only reason Bananas was set up politically was because of Nany. She carried them politically.

What?  I said "winning eliminations" isn't strategic/social on Ride or Dies.  Going in is the opposite of that.  I never said anything about her trying to control John.

so we're celebrating getting your partner to compete in a show about competing? Then yes she's a political/social mastermind

By being cast on the show with her pregame alliance... just like John was during the JEK era. Which I won't give him credit for either lol

Not just vacation people she had Michelle, Nelson and others not wanting to throw her in. 90% of the vets were protecting her. No credit for her alliance when that's the point of the game lolol

Kaycee was supposed to make it to this final and tackle all the girls that got close to Nany. Sad
