I like that everyone has idols. With only 16 players it's going to keep things interesting. But, to me, my idol could be potentially worthless. If I can keep a tight grip on the people I'm playing, I won't need it. I will use it as a tool to offer to the people I need. The first people who uses their idol and actually saves themselves is at a huge disadvantage.
Logic says that person should go next because they are mathematically the least likeliest person to have an idol and therefor are the least riskiest vote.
Everyone is going to be thinking "Okay I have an idol, the key now is to use it at the right time." Fuck that. I'm going to go to that person who has no idol and say "Look, I have this idol, you know you're going to get some votes next tribal, who would you target if you could?" and I would have no problem giving them the idol if we see eye-to-eye on a target.
The major concern for me will be future idols. If I blow my idol on some bitch and they want nothing to do with me, I've ruined my whole game. All that person has to do is say "Look, this dude gave me his idol, he's the one who should go now not me." and provide a picture.
The key to this move will be doing it with the right person. I need to factor in multiple things.
1. Will saving this person bring my demise?
2. How much do I trust this person?
3. How likely is this person to fuck me over?
4. Will bringing this person in change the course of the game long-term?
Only time will tell but that's where my mind is at now.
