So I've done Edgic in the past of some challenges, but I don't ever seem to finish them. However, I finally put in the effort to finish one for Invasion of the Champions. As I assume a lot of people aren't familiar with 'Edgic', I put some quick information below, along with the Edgic chart for this season. Alongside the edgic is the confessional chart that counts the total number of confessionals each player had throughout the whole entire season. Maybe if I have enough time in the future, I can add a section as to why the characters had the storylines that were shown and why it influenced their overall character arc throughout the season.
What Is Edgic?
Edgic is a portmanteau that combines the words Editing and Logic. It is a concept that was originally devised by the good folks on the Survivor Sucks forums to try and determine the winner of each Survivor season based on the edit. Edgic assigns a rating to each player per episode based on their portrayal, the percentage of screen-time, and other varying factors. While Edgic was created to determine the winner, it is also a useful tool for mapping a character’s objective story arc throughout the season.
How Does Edgic Work?
After each episode, a player is assigned a rating based on their edit. There are three principal components in determining this: Rating, Tone, and Visibility.
Rating = the personality type of a player.
Tone = whether this personality was portrayed in a positive or negative light.
Visibility = the amount of screen-time dedicated to a player.
