LAST EDITED ON 04-03-15 AT 08:38 PM (EST)Call me cynical, but I think we're going to see a decent number of these picked by production as well. Maybe it'll be a mix, but I feel like there are people they want.
Kelly W. (original runner up, S1, production wants her back, will probably get votes too)
Abi-Maria (stirs the pot too much to not return)
Ciera (duh)
Kass (stirs the pot, Cagayan warm fuzzies)
Tasha (probably gets a spot, could be biased here)
Savage (Probst boner)
Shane (rumored to come back in past, too perfect to not bring back)
Terry (Probst boner)
Hayden (recent season, generally popular)
Vytas (ditto)
Spencer (duh)
Keith (recent season, super popular with casuals)
I think those are probably our locks. I could see Jeremy or Woo make the list. Stephen, I imagine, will get a significant RHAP bump, so he might be a lock. I could see J'Tia in there because of her notoriety. There's a lot of recency bias, so the S30 crew will probably get a bunch of people on. If it's purely just a fan vote, then maybe some of the older crew like Andrew, Shane, or Terry might have trouble making it. I could easily see Woo snipe someone's spot.
Supposedly there had been some speculation about Ken from Gabon (because he'd been noticeably more active lately) but it might just be a coincidence.
Pretty eclectic list. Some of the names are kind of puzzling (really? Natalie T.?) but it'll be interesting to see what happens. Hopefully, it won't end up being only the BvW and later people and we get a good mix.
(Also, lol to the producers for thinking One World is still a thing. If that cast was so great, why was it such a crappy season? I'm looking at you too, Redemption Island.)
