User blog:Courierthekid/Survivor: Island of Influencers Cast selection

Hey there! sorry for the delay on this, I did a platelet donation and ended up sleeping for nearly 24 hours. I've been working on this in my spare time though, doing research on every submission and I've cut down all tribe submissions to at least four for each tribe, and at most 10. Just a reminder, this was a Internet Influencer season, similar to TAR 28 so any TV personalities were for the most part cut, same with any submissions who were younger than 18.

To narrow down the submissions I went by the size of their follower base across their preferred platform. for those who had more than one platform, I averaged them out across whatever applied to their category.

The News Tribe
So there was an issue with the news tribe, as I pointed out most of those submissions were actual New Anchors rather than Social Media Influencers, leaving this tribe with only three women submissions, Kendall of her own channel, Ashley of The Know and TAR 28 4th place finisher, and Brooke of Polaris News and Presshearttocontinue. as well two men Phil of Philip DeFranco and Eliot Formerly of Machinima and ETC News, now of Internet Today.

I wanted to avoid using real news anchors from CNN and Fox simply because even though this is a blog season without a written plot, I want to try and avoid political controversy as much as I can, so I have three options before me; I'll leave this tribe for last and have a poll up while I put up the polls for the other tribes to decide what actually happens.
 * 1) Use the submitted men for the news tribe
 * 2) Cut the news Tribe and make this season three tribes of eight with the other remaining tribes.
 * 3) Hold a poll of three extra male YouTubers in the news category to fill the final spot. these three being Daniel of Drama Alert or Keemstar, Jim of the Jimquisition and Devin of Legal Eagle

Nerd Tribe
We're going to start with the Nerd Tribe, as they were what I typed first and it's also the only tribe with no resubmitted castaways. I'll leave small summaries of each castaway submission right before the polls. I'll only be using a castaway's first name if that information has been willingly divulged. For Castaways selected I'll make mangas for them.
