I haven’t read glowfic before, but this resonates with me re: what’s fun about all-star seasons of Survivor. Players you know now being in new contexts, with new opponents, and with you maybe having more emotional stake in a specific player winning because you’ve rooted for them previously.
In the case of Survivor though, you also get players who are now aware of their edit/meta, and which can sometimes flanderize them or cause them to have baggage that requires a change in strategy. That’s sometimes interesting - can this known liar somehow trick people _again- ? - but also sometimes results in the fan favorite players getting voted out earlier.
