Not quite all stars. Purely from what I can read on the boards/confessionals.
Colby and Denise are out of the running. Denise would need to do a lot at the end of impress me more so to consider her an all star.
Maybes for me are Malcolm Natalie and Charlie. They all have spots of amazing qualities of all stars but also miss the mark in terms of strategy and awareness at times I think.
Strategic and clever but not the most entertaining are Kelly and Lex but I could definitely see a return for them. They convey their emotions well and are entertaining enough.
Edgardo Alina are the peeps I want most to return. They both are hot messes as well as entertaining.
Chet and Vytas in my opinion are great characters but should only be asked back if others turn it down. Definitely replacements but that's not bad on them.

I think Natalie is probably one of our more strategically aware contestants. She just isn't showing it in confessional. But JS, the fact that she got winner in majority rules indicates to me that she's playing a strong game.
Otherwise, I agree. I'm not too keen on Chet/Vytas getting spots except as backups. I think we have enough strong players in this merge that we shouldn't have to dip into the pre-merge.

Here's my final choices, just because the time is nigh.
Lex, Edgardo, Alina, Malcolm, Kelly, and Charlie, with Chet and Natalie in as subs.

Can I just say not Natalie? Anyway, my vote's for Alina, Malcolm, Edgardo, Kelly, Lex, and Charlie, although I'm iffy on him. If it was 5 AS, he'd be my cut, but as it stands I'd rather have him than a premerger.

Alina, Malcolm, Edgardo, Kelly, Lex. Charlie and Chet as alternates. I like bringing back just those 5, because Charlie hasn't earned it and 5 is still a very solid number.

Whats up with the Lex hype?

Lex has an amazing character arc, something pretty hard to come by in an ORG. He starts off at the bottom of his tribe and is looking like an early boot due to his lack of social awareness and general negativity as displayed in confessionals and AIM chats. He then takes the role of a leader, and does a good job proving his worth to them while still being negative, which changes after he reveals his struggle of fitting in due to being an older guy who can't relate to the younger crowd.
On Dampier, he was the level-headed narrator to an insane tribe, and tried to sway the increasingly crazy Alina from making bad decisions (to no avail) and he was the only person who tried to become friends with Chet/Monica, the initial outsiders. By the merge, Lex is the only true hero in the game, because he's doing his best to keep himself and Alina safe, and he also was the only person to catch on to the fact that Edgardo was a scheming bitch.
When the tribes merge, Lex is the only reliable narrator on the Dampier/Kidd side of things, and is the only true hero left in the game. He tries to be kind, and is dealing with the dilemma of Alina going off the deep end and keeping Edgardo, who he continually points out is the bad guy, and is a load of trouble. Nobody listens, and this directly results in the Pagonging of the Kidd members (except Alina due to her Terry-like immunity run). In the end, Lex gets voted out by the one person he had been trying to help all game, which is a pretty good Shakespearean ending to this guy's tale.

I'm personally thinking Alina/Lex/Malcolm/Edgardo/Kelly/Natalie with Charlie and Chet as back ups contemplating switching Nat with Charlie but the first five I'm pretty solid on Host Aras what do u think

All Stars in my opinion are polarizing players who deserve another chance to play/prove themselves based on their visibility and likability.
I definitely think that invites should 100% be extended to: Alina/Lex/Kelly/Malcolm/Edgardo
Natalie did not impress me enough in her confessionals or with gameplay to warrant an automatic invite but could see her play if someone declines as an alternate.
Same with Chet/Charlie.

I'd like to have 6 this season if only to keep the numbers consistent + because I feel like we have enough deserving people (since I really feel like both Charlie and Nat deserve it).
So I'm gonna give Charlie an invite if you don't want Nat ;D
