Welcome to the Final Tribal Council.
Fuggles, Jakey and Woofley walk in
We will now bring in the members of our Jury.
# Here is how this works.
#1. | Speeches
- Fiovivor FTC is going to work a bit more differently, and this is the first iteration of how I want to try and run it.
- <@1132419908651716628>, <@323695449225691136> and <@647944649402613772> have until 5PM EST tomorrow to make an opening speech as to why they should win the season.
- Speeches must be 1,000 words or less. They may not be longer but they can be shorter!
- Reminder that your speeches here are _OPENING_ speeches. If you want to say more, you can say more in questioning.
#2. | FTC Time
- All jurors will be invited into this channel tomorrow at 5PM EST when speeches drop. There will be no individual channels.
- <@&1414011075980169336> may ask questions to finalists, discuss with other jurors and engage in FTC however they like.
- My one ask is please do not outwardly declare your vote. Even if you are already decided, do not spoil where your vote is going.
- When FTC begins, finalists may go beyond the 1,000 word limit of an opening speech and say whatever they wish to say.
#3. | Voting
- Jurors are not allowed to change their votes at FTC. Once your vote is in, it will be considered set in stone.
- As such, you are encouraged to hold off on casting your vote until you are 100% certain it is final.
- Finalists must cast a tiebreaker vote for another finalist in submissions before the FTC deadline.
- This vote will be used in the event they lose in either a 5-5-1 or 4-4-3 vote, or there is a tie for Runner-Up (for placement).
# OPEN TO <@&1414008636451197038>
TLDR: Opening speeches are due tomorrow at 5PM EST and this channel will be opening for questioning then. Your speech must be 1,000 words or less.
This is something that I have mentioned to everyone on the cast, but I think I should restate it again because it was too large a factor on how I played this season to ignore. From the start of the season to Kebab’s boot at the first part of the F7, I was on vacation in Brazil, and as a result, could not entirely play the way I was attempting to play. There are especially some incredibly ugly rounds on my resume that were a rude awakening, such as Robynn’s boot, where I realized I did not have the ability to put my hand in the game in a “normal” sense as I didn’t have the full time to commit to a conventional game. Although I fully understand my game which let me afford to vote very poorly across so many tribals, they were still setbacks I didn’t like, especially given that most if not every ally I had was voted off for rounds straight.
It’s understandable that I may have played in a way that pissed many of you off, especially given that, until I voted for Bazz at the f4, I only voted for 4 people from Wyatt’s vote onwards. On paper, my gameplay looks incredibly two dimensional. When it came to votes and allies, I chose to act a bit like a caveman in order to make my way to the end. I would go into every round already knowing who I was voting for, and I’d even tell them on almost every occasion. Numerous times I even did this publicly, somewhat for a real reason, but usually for the joke of it (Drew F11, Jakey F13, and technically when I would joke about voting Luis premerge). in the merge, as I kept open conversation whilst keeping my foot down on how I wanted to play (mostly due to how the tribals from f16-f11 played out), rather than deliberately work on votes with allies, I relied on camaraderie, understanding of my own place in the game, understanding of social ties, and intuition to survive to the end, which I had fantastic success using as I moved through the game preparing not for the vote at the moment, but where I could have ended up later in the future, adjusting my perception and positions in the game accordingly until I could peak at the end, being the only person from Drew’s vote onwards to have a perfect voting record.
I was far from inactive and it’s undeniable to say that I was never a goat. Numerous times over the season I drastically changed the way my gameplay worked - between working hard with alliances at the beginning, intentionally using a lack of 1-1s, becoming Fabio Birza in the merge, before I finally pulled together a route in which I could guarantee the end - though I was already confident I had the perception to make it here before merge even began. As well, I only got one vote across the whole season, a stray at that - which is imperative given every other player with the exception of Robynn got votes at 2 tribals or more. Although my game looks weak, I believe these aspects alone should prove much more below the surface.
What I hope to be able to explain in my ftc is that my experience in this season, although primal, involved a very complex thought process, which, although rarely gave me a powerful position, existed not to achieve that spot, but rather to give me a position where I was poised to make the end, and even better, avoid being a target at any point in the game. I cannot guarantee that if I wasn’t on vacation, I’d be playing a game that has more to show up front, but it is highly likely I would have. The other people from this season that played ORGchives a few months back with me can confirm I was a total god in that. That’s irrelevant, though - I just mention that because this was a drastically different time from how I usually play.
I won’t try to draw on much more, but I say this as I believe it is necessary to understand how I made it to the end, let alone make it as far as I was able to. That is all, and I do hope you all keep an open mind in questioning as I can answer any kind of question you can give. I did enjoy playing a lot, and though I know many of you were exasperated by the mood this season had for a long time, I hope it had great moments. My game was weird and funny and not totally enjoyable at times, but it was exactly the type of gameplay required to make it to the end in a season filled with crazy shit like this, and, with great hope, the type of game needed to win. And more than anything, I hope you guys really liked me as a person. A large motive for why I went down the path I chose is because I just wanted to be as funny as I could possibly be and I hope I made at least a few of you laugh. That’s the least I need.
A part of why I took this direction with my opening is that I had verbal knowledge from all three comebacks that the way I was playing was not very liked by people, even from some who went prejury like Dachi. The anti fuggles sentiment brewed for a long time and I want to be able to prove that beyond the rough exterior is fine ass diamonds. <:strollinstu:1430214974646522006>
woofadoof it would be a fitting end to the season

In game ...
<@647944649402613772> I felt you were rather fake at times in this game. Which I would respect if it didnt seem like a lot of your game was riding Jessica's coat tails from my viewpoint. And by fake I dont think thats the right word bc you would have to talk to me to be fake, you often ghosted me, didnt talk to me, left me out, and didnt feels the need to ever include me and contributed to a boring pagonging. Wait. That whole last part can be applied to <@323695449225691136> too crazy right. I found the pagonging to be extremly boring. So what's the question here?
Woofley what did you do that was self interested for yourself and not Jessica
Jakey what did you do that was self interested for yourself and not drew.
<@1132419908651716628> my question for you is how can I vote for you in good faith like I love you fuggles but the game wasn't it, but I want you to explain why your more deserving of it over Woofley and Jakey.
(Sorry ik these are a bit mean but you guys made me rather bitter/disappointed as you will see in my cf😭 i still like you all and sure did play better then me but questions r nesscary!)
I want to ask my boy fuggles like 5 questions

I don't think a vote for me would be in bad faith. Not only was the merge part of the game significantly larger than the prejury but the prejury had so many quick ejections and quits (not to mention our whole tribe died besides me, you, and bazz basically) that the way the season was working was inevitably hanging towards a large portion of johto dominance.
There was also a massive amount of variance for what could actually go on, which I know is how the end became a group that only voted together twice. More proof of this variance is the fact that for large portions of the merge I don't actually think there was a major threat to go - the only exception being Kebab imo who could have done it had she not been idolled out. Take the other players who were probably at the higher end of the favourites - jessica wasn't always a threat to win, bazz wasn't always a threat to win, and drew wasn't always threat to win. For the most part, players that were threats were contemporary.
This season had an extreme contrast in the players that were playing the game well versus the people that were bound to make ftc, and I understood that extremely well, and for a very long time. Especially with my vacation, I could see a way to keep being a really funny guy whilst playing the game in my own way, not having to take a backseat to other people like jakey or woofley, knowing that i could also afford to vote wrong often, a part of which came from my relationship with bazz, but id like to say im just naturally charming enough to do it <:strollinstu:1430214974646522006> .
Being able to stay in the loop for votes and alliances is an important part, but it's also important to see how the game's natural course benefits certain players and dynamics and how to play that to your advantage, which I did. No matter how much variance happened, I ensured every variance involved me getting to the end and having the people I wanted to be at the end. I was never here to coast, I played in my own way.

adding on to this, I should mention again that the way my understanding played out should have fallen if i went the whole game not voting correctly once, but I think I for sure cemented it from the F7 onwards. Beyond the weirdness of the jessica boot (this was the first time bazz actually jumpscared me), I had myself in a position where, and more than being bound to make the end no matter what happened, i was bound to take out the players I wanted. No matter what happened, I think Jessica and Drew were bound to go and at the f5 I became the swing between going with bazz/luis or woofley/jakey, and put myself in a position where I could both get the vote I picked and not get voted back myself. This of course was really late in the game but I think it proves I could work both ways.
robynn0132 <@647944649402613772> I felt you were rather fake at times in this game. Which I...
I want to firstly apologize for making you feel that way Robynn. Survivor is something that I have done for fun for the last few years and I feel like the reason I enjoy it so much is because I'm able to be myself, and that isn't something I'm able to do in the real world. I'm sorry that I came across as fake but I believe the person that you saw is the real me. I have autism and survivor gets overwhelming for me sometimes, so I have to close my phone and do something else or I get really stressed. I'm so sorry that I ghosted you, I promise that my intention was not to hurt you in any way because that is absolutely not what I want anybody to feel.
Game wise, me and Jessica have been close since the beginning and I have so much respect for her. The reason I asked her to be my ally is because I want to be like her when I get older. But my game is not Jessica's game, it is Woofley’s. All of the alliances I was in remained a secret and I had never told Jessica what my pokemon was, which allowed me to use it successfully at the final seven tribal council. I had never told Jessica about the second half-idol that Kebab had gifted me before she left. These things were all kept to myself and I never reported it to Jessica, because doing so could reveal my position in the game and get me voted out. The goals that we had were different and we had both voted differently multiple times during this game. I had never told Jessica my plan of blindsiding Cameron until after he was voted out. I was very vocal about who I wanted out and allowed myself to work with Kebab and Ore despite Jessica being on the opposite side as then during the end of the game. While I worked with Jessica, I made my own moves and had my own game.
Honestly I was hoping to be able to go all game without even using the pokeball because I found it really funny
_andyroo_ EAT SHIT WOOFLEY
You were actually pretty funny drew that's why I liked you besides the fact I voted you 4 times

that being said I was actually really fucking upset when you died I wanted to f2 soooo fucking badly and you just got demolished at the remerge
nub_3_3 Lets starts with:

to be more descriptive i think with the setup i had made i don't think I was even ever going to get voted out. Nightmare scenarios where I get voted off never happen because I understood how to avoid having too many assailants combined with people who i know wouldn't vote me off. because of that if there was an f3 i think i could have survived both ways.
nub_3_3
I mean, was the season normal and serious?
anything flies in a goofy season like this in my opinion
derek_v <@647944649402613772> why did you choose to idol me out when i was literally wor...
Bazz and Kebab had informed me that you were lying about "not getting any responses." from them. I believe you had full intention of voting me out and I knew that if I had used the idol and kept you, you would favor Kebab over me. There was no indication of how many more tribal councils we would go to in the tribe of three, and I knew that if I didn't vote you out then you could switch over to the other tribes numbers and vote me out. It was better to keep Drew and Jakey because they were on a different tribe as us, and if we ever did go back to tribal council with them we could have Bazz vote with us.
woofadoof Bazz and Kebab had informed me that you were lying about "not getting any respon...
I wasn’t getting a lot of responses I was working 😭
I told kebab so many times if she didn’t wanna vote you we didn’t have to but everyone else wanted to bc thats what they were telling me
And she was appreciative i was helping her out
So this is again why Inwas #mostrobbed
If people have asked these questions…. Cool. Just don’t answer them!
1) <@1132419908651716628> , your IDGAF attitude was absolutely intentional and I know that…. To take your game seriously I need to see in your mind a move where you sweated for a SECOND, like where you went GAMEBOTTY…. Gaf like I need to know you had an ounce of care to win the season but I support you and what’s your favorite pasta dish?
2) <@323695449225691136> HIII DIVA! Oka so like my girl Jessica thought of the idea that you intentionally used her, myself and Bazz as meat shields I wanna know if that’s correct and what can you say to set yourself aside from your allies to get you the win
3) NYA <@647944649402613772> :3 I mean personality alone you could win off of that but my vote isn’t as hard to get as you think. I just wanna know why you never gave me a chance to work with you, I know you and I were never close but it never felt like you were open and that disappointed me because I ADORED you and still do icon! So like what’s the tea

over the course of survivor i have learned that i can't work with everyone, no matter how hard i try. i don't want to make anybody upset but that is hard to do in this game. the reason i made you my enemy was because we have always been on opposite sides of the game since the tribal derek went home.
you are such a funny and smart person that i would have loved to work with you, but if i had it wouldn't work out because:
-a big part of my strategy was making it clear that i was against you, if anybody ever asked me a question about who i wanted to go home i could take the route of saying i want you to get voted out because we are against each other. this worked for me because it was a truthful answer, even if you weren't the person i wanted to go home the most at the time.
- i didn't need to work with you because i had bazz as one of closest allies, i knew that you would go after other people like kebab and ore before you would go after me. i was never going to against ore because we had been allies since the first days of this game, and i valued our game relationship over my game relationship with you.
- in total i would have loved to work with you, but i wanted my allies to know that i stood with them, and there was never a reason for me to flip over to your side at any point during the game. :3
thank u all the wonderful hosts yall ate it up this season! i came into the season not knowing what to expect in terms of my own availability because i started a new job right before this started and have been trying to focus on my own life problems. nevertheless when fio comes knocking jakey must answer the call!!! this is my third season and my third FTC. i’ve never been voted out across three seasons which i think is a testament in itself on my gameplay and managing my own threat level. but let’s focus on this season obvi!!! i won the last 6 individual immunities in. a. row. the only time i was in danger was at the cooper tribal where i was able to build a close relationship with jessica at that point to keep me safe with nub and the help of rocks paranoia. i was loyal to my peopleeee which was jess and drew we had an alliance made very early on that i dearly tried to keep together throughout the game even if it was difficult at times!!!! oactivity was a bit of a learning curve in the game as i started a new job i didn’t know what to expect. turns out i can’t rly ever be on my phone which sucks!!!! nevertheless i made sure i was on every single day, make every single deadline (even if i needed extensions!), had every important convo i needed to have that day, and continue to strategize. just not being able to be on all day until the evening time i think made people see me as less threatening. they thought i wasn’t even playing the game or talking to people but i believe people were underestimating tf outta me. i was still socializing (not as much as i would like but as much as i could), i was still strategizing with my allies and derailing my enemies, i was still eating up in challenges, and i was still assessing my position at all times. that’s just what i want to get across most right now is that i was playing this game to the best of my ability with the time and resources i had. i know it could have been better!!!!! i know i could and should know some of you more as people. and you should know me better. i hope it’s not too late for that and ive at least shown that i was here to play and i did a pretty good job at it!!! so ya vote jakey!!!!! don’t let me lose ftc again!!!!!! i have a family of two kitties that need the support!!!!!! and obvi i will go into more detail on the game once im home from w*rk and can answer questions ty!!!

i have always thought back to this tribal and i wish i had played it better. the tribal i am talking about is the robynn tribal. that same round i had told you that i wanted david out and i told others the same, this was because i had heard that david was saying my name. i struggled to find the votes to get out david, but i wish i tried something different or just tried harder to get david out.
robynn wanted to work with me, and i believe she would have been loyal to me for at least a few more tribal councils, this also would have been good because bazz wouldn't be the only one saving me from getting voted out from the other side of the game. if i had the opportunity to go back and do something that is what i would do. ❤️ my game has been based on loyalty and i feel like i wasn't as loyal to robynn as i should have been. especially since i wanted to go to the end with all the girls.

AND YES YOU ARE RIGHT KEBAB!!!!
i meant it when i told you i wanted to go to the end with all the women, and i wish i stayed more true to that.

Besides the Robynn and David tribals were I was hustling hard to try and save them the nub vote was definitely my sweatiest boot because I wasn't just really working hard to try and get jessica out there, i even prepared for the vote in place the round before. I knew whatever happened from the f9 onwards would still be wildly in my favour but i knew it would also take a while for me to come out of the radar for a long time so when i talked to nub about saving david and he mentioned his alliance with jessica and ore and how close they were (contradicting their underplaying) i really pounced on it for a few major reasons. the first obviously was it was my in to be able to play the game normally as by the time jessica was out i wouldve been leaving brazil and i knew i could actually play a great social game from then onwards as I would've gotten woofley and ore closer to me without jessica, i wouldve picked up nub as a good ally, loads of other things, like the alliances i also set up this round. this was all the round before in prep, and then at that round before everything developed without me while I was packing I was going to pick you up because I knew jessica was after you that round at first and I would've used that to get insight into your side, the area which genuinely kinda did bamboozle me because rather than having knowledge I just used intuition to make sense of what you and jakey's goals were. This was my ultra gamebotty play because I actually felt fucking horrible about voting off jessica because I had a great talk with her the round before and I actually did feel really bad because I hadn't blindsided anyone else like that. Of course, with what I really relied on this season I did turn it into a win-win situation for me where i knew I could make up with jessica and if you died (which is what i thought wouldve happened otherwise) at least i was doing what i loved. I was also blindsiding ore and woofley this tribal which is pretty gamebotty because I
basically put a no vote policy on them where I would have never voted them under basically any circumstances and I was just hoping to clear it up with them after. Of course then I wasn't considering that the game would really develop past drew v jessica when i was packing but if i was in the loop i'd just end up voting nub i think because what he said mostly falls apart at that development. what i also wasn't considering was that i legitimately bought like 400$ worth of gifts to bring back home so i left brazil with around 80$, and I was like damn. the wifi is 20$ on this flight, i cant do this so then I was mostly gone for the ore and kebab boots. that being said i did really pick up after you went so i think it could've legitimately been a scenario where i sweated for that vote to happen and if it successfully happened i can do my strategy with a more apparent resume
but that also isn't to say that the outcome that actually happened wasn't in my favour either because I also wanted to reestablish the lines when a few people in my eyes became too strong for the game and I wanted to dismantle it because I'd already lost cooper, robynn, cam and david back to back and that sucked absolute balls
i was sweating like crazy to jumpstart where i came back in but even when it didn't work out it would still manifest as a way i had been navigating for a long time
ibnelkebab <@1132419908651716628> i have a question<:steamhappy:1340141177432703098> ur bra...
<@556663419483324421> this above is also why I worked really hard at the f9 comp, I never feared going out in the game like when I tried to force the 50/50 on me vs drew at robynns tribal. Knowing I'd be spending a lot of the round packing it would've been much better to prevent myself from being votable on a round which i was working much farther in advance to make happen
<@1132419908651716628> So I want to talk about your strategy of picking someone to vote, often publicly announcing it, and being totally inflexible on switching your vote, even if no one else was voting with you. This strategy made it impossible to make strategic moves with you, cutting off potential new allies, and also leaving your actual allies stuck with one less vote than they should be working with if they wanted to pull off a move. To me, Jakey, was always willing to work with people to switch a vote off of his allies, as even just for me, I often heard my name come up and saw the results of Jakey coming on and getting the vote moved off of me, and Woofley was never afraid to push the name she wanted out and almost always made sure she was on the right side of the votes, while you would just say a name, not try to get anyone to vote with you, and basically isolate yourself.
jessi_cab <@1132419908651716628> So I want to talk about your strategy of picking someone ...
You were certainly the victim of the strategy I had the most as I hadn't been involved with you at all, I was hoping to get to know you more through the original kebab vote where I tried to save ore but that never came to fruition. I think everyone except you got some insight into the macro playstyle I had so I can't blame you for feeling that way. That being said, saying I wasn't trying to get anyone with myself nor was I closing off a vote for my allies isn't true at all. I definitely worked to try and make my votes happen even if they didn't end up working out, and at every other vote I had wrong, I was still voting with them. I think the illusion of this is primarily created due to my relationship with Bazz, someone I was allied with despite having the knowledge he would blindside me at several rounds. Other than that, I can really only say I'm sorry and I didn't know how to handle it with you.

FINAL EIGHT
My strategy at the final eight was to vote off Drew because I truthfully believed that him going would be best for my game because we were never really on the same side. I talked to everyone, and I foolishly believed that Drew was certainly going to go home. When you were voted out I was crushed, especially because I for some reason believed that Bazz was close with you still after everything. (i failed as a therapist.) After you were voted out I went to Bazz and Jessica and told them that I still trusted you, and that I viewed you as a threat. But I was genuinely so heart broken I went offline for the night and cried. xD
FINAL SEVEN
Disaster….part two……yay!!!! I went to everyone and was like, don’t worry guys! It’s gonna be Drew. I talked to Bazz and made sure that we were on the same page, so we had officially had the numbers to vote drew off for GOOD!!!!! ……and then he used an idol and voted kebab out. At this point I lost it I had lost you and Kebab back to back and I thought that oh my goodness gracious, what am I even going to do. But I know that you and Kebab wouldn’t want me to give up so I made a plan. A plan that would let me go against the people in the final tribal council that I had the best shot against.
FINAL SEVEN V2
At this point Bazz was a huge threat, but I wanted to vote off Drew because it was time to finally complete what I had started multiple rounds ago. (drew you are awesome it took me this long to finally vote you out xD) Anyways, for the last time I went up to everyone and made sure that Drew was going to be the vote tonight, but I also had another motive.
I knew that Drew could be an easy vote, and that is exactly why I did it. Because I had the POLTEAGEIST pokemon. By making Drew the vote it allowed to stay safe the following round and officially be in the final five. ❤️😸💖

My strategy at the final eight was to vote off...
FINAL SIX:
and….I AM SO GLAD I USED IT BECAUSE HOLY MOLY XD If I hadn’t used it I could have gotten a stray vote at tribal council and have been voted out because of rocks. I wasn’t actually awake during this vote because sleep is more important than being at a silly tribal council. So I had put in my tiebreaker in my submissions and had it in for Bazz, because Bazz was a big threat in the game at this point and I knew I couldn’t win against him. I don’t regret going to sleep because I still would have kept my vote for Bazz the same. I was upset that Jessica got rocked out, because like I said before I wanted a woman to win this season of fiovivor. But it was actually not a bad thing for me, because Jessica was a threat that would beat me in the end. This helped me get to the end by allowing me to be in the final three with Jakey and Fuggles.
FINAL FIVE:
Me and Bazz talked for a long time this round and sent each other voice messages. I knew that Bazz going was probably better for my game but we talked about things that were personal and it would be against everything I stood for in my game if I had voted for Bazz that tribal council. I will let Bazz decide if he wants to share what we talked about but I won’t talk about it without his permission. So I took the risk of letting Bazz go to the final four, and voted for Luis out of principle.
FINAL FOUR:
I told Bazz that I would be voting for him if he didn’t win immunity, and we had one last conversation. I am so thankful that I saved Bazz at Camerons tribal council because Bazz is so awesome sauce and I am so grateful to have played with him. I had to vote him out because Bazz would have beat me, and everyone else if he was in the final tribal council. If I was voted off here because I lost firemaking, I would have voted for Bazz.

Honestly, not a lot of stuff that I can actually claim as my own from a voting perspective. I was going with the flow to a completely collaborative point and nothing that I myself pushed became the vote, though I guess technically Jessica but that's very cheap because I got that going, but it didn't actually happen, but it ended up happening anyway. The closest thing I have to a strategic play that was my idea that also got pulled off was how my relationship with Bazz worked, as I worked with him willingly knowing he'd be blindsiding me much more often. As ridiculous as it sounds, I used that as a legitimate means to keep on practicing the kind of game plan I was employing, as, although I would go into most votes uncertain of what he'd end up doing, it'd leave me with a connection that I knew wouldn't vote me off, enabling me to chill in his blind spots and make a position where he could even be usurped (although, tbh, I was actually still considering going to the end with him.) However, I don't want to make it like I was playing with bazz, a part of why I took that route was because I legitimately did like him a lot. That is a common pattern for my thought process this season - knowing what I liked and employing a means to keep doing it.
nub_3_3
i didnt realize this was chatgpt i thought you unironically asked me this im so fucking stupid bruh
orethesecond If you wanna breakdown uhh cover tje larts after I went since I lowk got no clue...
if there's any background my main gameplan like I had said in my opening speech was relying a lot on camaraderie to survive so rather than intentionally playing in the loop I basically put people off the table for who I wanted to vote (like you) and I made sure they themselves would never be voting me back. Because of that, a physical implementation i had was using the vote behind to predict the dynamics of the next rounds and just adjust accordingly. especially coming from position i was playing, I would use the approach of already being on the backfoot to approach to figure out what happened and this led to me finding a newfound connection to Jakey, especially now that I was in a better timezone so that he'd be getting off work in my afternoons and not when I went to bed. So then after you went I helped talk bazz back into keeping kebab, and i was probably gonna work with this side if kebab didn't get idolled out afterwards, but then at the following tribal I did end up getting to know jakey a lot more and finally got a proper connection with him. it solidifed after jessica died to rocks since we talked it out (since he voted me on revote), vand both me and woofley were like "we've been chilling with bazz but I don't think this is possible anymore." it was at this point I still liked bazz enough to go to ftc with him but especially now that i was beginning to like jakey i decided to take the path with him and woofley that's here now. There was also Luis and I actually did solidify plans with him but then the F6 went the way it did which genuinely was the only time I was legitimately surprised by something. I guess tldr of the tldr, due to my macro working out I had paths to ftc with everybody in the f5 and even if the rocks took out bazz, still had 4 connections to make ftc with at the f6
Nevermind, I tried to go to bed but with what Jessica said before still stuck in my mind I want to at least get it off my chest, because I already know it'd explode if I tried to go without doing it. I want to tell you all that I fucking loved this season to an insane degree, even at times where I almost pulled out of the game like the f16 because I was worried about how it was making me think. And beyond that, even getting to meet you all or meet you again after years was incredible. I don't think I ever didn't enjoy talking to people, whether in tribes or 1-1s, it doesn't matter, you guys are all amazing and outside of a system where we are meant to vote each other off I think it'd be even better. More than anything, what I really just want to say is that when you were talking to me, you were talking to the real me. When it came to the things I actually said and did, I tried my best to completely be myself in every way. I wanted to literally feel the game, and despite everything, again, I'm still giddy and I'd kick my feet like a little boy and I'd laugh my ass off all game. What worries me more than if people disagree with how I ended up playing is if people have a misperception with how I played. I'm okay with being considered an idiot if you found my tactics to make the end too ridiculous. What would tear me inside forever is that people assume I played with no enjoyment, passion, or a mind at all.

And even though I can't fully tell how this is going
I always planned to work for it
Even if the odds were fully stacked against me
dlb50 <@1132419908651716628> I really appreciate your social game! Can you please expl...
i believe you should give me your vote because i played the best game out of the people sitting here. every decision i made in this game helped me go further in one way or another, i was not afraid to say who i wanted gone and was loyal to my allies. i have played this game true to myself the entire way through, and i am proud of the way i played and i know after this i will be happy with the way i played.
after i heard that you had mentioned my name from jakey and kebab i made sure that you were voted out the next round. i was very vocal about wanting you gone and messaged people explaining why you were the best decision to go home. if you don't vote me to tonight i understand, because we didn't have much of a game relationship or even much of a social relationship. but i believe the decisions i made regarding your tribal council, and other tribal councils is more than enough to vote for me to win.
OK Hello! I need to do this:
<@323695449225691136> You manage to win 6 immunity challenge in a row, which mean you were in safety most of the time. What other things I could be impressed with your game. All I see if a challenge comp beast getting his way to ftc, so tell me what tribal wise stuff you manage to done.
<@647944649402613772> Woofley, I wanna ask since I don't see you mentioning about, but go through your thoghts of the tribal that I gone home. Also do wanna know what it something you are proud of that you achived in this game and makes it a ftc worthy play.
<@1132419908651716628> Out of the three here, I feel like I know you more as we talk quite a lot. What is a play you are also proud of and make it a worthy ftc play?
ily all three of you, been super fun, my vote is up in the air right now
❤️ 1
Alright so these will likely be my last questions for each of you so better make it count!(I alr read the previous answers btw)
<@1132419908651716628> Gameplay wise, you voted incorrectly most of the game, and didn't quite show the kind of pull that I would expect from a winner, however, your most important asset in this ftc is that despite voting wrong often, you were rarely blindsided. So I want to make sure that your info collection was done well.
Give me your predicted power rankings between all the jurors(minus Derek V for 19th placing reasons) AND you Woofley and Jakey. Of course, you're free to have your own opinion, so don't try to make it based off my own views.
<@647944649402613772> Compared to Fuggles, you definetly were more accurate with your votes, however, I saw your game as being a bit too stuck on wanting your way(not as a necessarily bad thing, but it did tick me off, particularly in the David boot and my own boot where I believe had you not been so stuck on Drew that Jessica would've gone home instead). Of course though, you have your own game views.
You have one of two ways to answer this, either tell me why you being so set on certain boots was more beneficial for you in the game, OR tell me if you think I misjudged your game and that you were more lenient in game decisions, with examples ofc.
orethesecond Alright so these will likely be my last questions for each of you so better make...
(Btw obv put yourself above Woofley and Jakey, idc if some others don't think so if you actively say you're not the best player to vote for then what's the point 😭)
<@323695449225691136> unfortunate that you happen to be so busy this FTC, but if you have the time, I won't be asking about "how you weren't a comp beast" because Nub already asked that, instead I will ask the opposite.
Winning immunities for the sake of winning immunities feels a bit cheap tbh, and while winning to keep yourself safe is always good, do you think any of those immunities you won actively helped you strategically OTHER than giving you freedom on who to vote?
nub_3_3 OK Hello! I need to do this:
<@323695449225691136> You manage to win 6 immunity...
hello nub!!!! :3
The vote at the time was between Ore and Jessica. Ore and Jessica were two of my closest allies in this game and there was no way that I was going to vote for them. At this moment in time Drew had the numbers to stay, so when I proposed his name to Kebab, she offered your name instead. I went with it because we were short on time and Ore had to vote somebody before falling asleep. I really appreciated our conversations and I had so much fun in skribble.io. But I knew that Jessica and Ore staying was better for my game so I decided to vote for you that tribal council.
My FTC worthy play was having Ore and Bazz be my allies while having them on opposite sides of the game. I was able to send home Cameron home with two votes, by using an idol on Ore and having Ore be the singular vote for Bazz. Not only was this move a big move, it was also a move that I had gotten away scot-free with. There were very few people that new exactly what had happened that night which made the move all so much better. This was my proudest move of this game and it helped me get where I am today in the game. In a season full of advantages and idols, I am glad that I used mine to the best of my ability.
orethesecond <@647944649402613772> Compared to Fuggles, you definetly were more accurate with...
You are right Ore, I was stubborn and it was something I shouldn't have been. In the game I was inconsiderate and didn't think about how other peoples games worked. I was only looking through Woofley's eyes and I am not proud of that. I thought I could have an all girls alliance and it truly work out and have all the women go to the end. But that isn't what happened, because other people have games, games that are different than mine. I wanted to be loyal and go to the end with my allies, but I think being so loyal is what got them voted out. I should have taken into consideration what my allies wanted not just what Woofley wanted.

<@647944649402613772> since you're the first one that responded to tjeir question you get an extra question!! Yippie!!
Now, this is not at all necessary, but it would be so funny and awesome and incredible..
Roast Jakey and Fuggles, VSO style.(doesn't have to be as high quality, hell doesn't have to be a video, but it would be funny!!)
orethesecond Alright so these will likely be my last questions for each of you so better make...
1. BAZZ I think this one is completely indisupuable. Definitely the best strategic game this season and though that occasionally burnt the jury against him he did legitimately come a round away from undeniably winning. Even when he had windows to be killed too he was cool enough to just live through it. He's like me if I saw the dynamics of the game and took an evil ass route
2. JESSICA I said in some of my earlier questions that I thought jessica had a few more windows to be eliminated and because of that she wasn't always a constant top threat but given that it did take rocks to take her out and not the rest I'd say that's pretty big. Like Bazz I don't think she had a path to ftc because she couldn't comp out but she did play a consistently good game.
3. KEBAB I think Kebab played the most consistent game, unlike Bazz, Jessica, and even Drew she was most likely to have a way to ftc had she not been idolled out twice. Probably winning best move for the F9 round for sure, and if she wasn't sniped by drews idol (also pleaaaase don't forget ive technically voted right since that tribal the idol doesnt count smh)
4. MEEEEEEEEE I think if I end up winning I will be 3rd on the rankings and from the contemporary power rankings each round I probably do round out at 4th altogether since I was never around the top besides the beginning and end and otherwise I was probably around the middle which I was going for. One thing for sure is im number one on the CHARACTER RANKINGS 💪 🔥 🔥 <:bubububub:1430750682419302400>
5. WOOFLEY I think Woofley is right below me to be honest because although she probably had more consistency with how she had herself on power rankings she took a backseat to the rest of the people ranked higher besides me in those cases. in her case she was working much more for the short term, it worked out for her but it wouldn't have without the long term plans i had. im going over character limit so part 2s next which has you + drew ne
orethesecond Alright so these will likely be my last questions for each of you so better make...
6 + 7: ORE/DREW
I rank you + drew together because you were both bigger players but you are separated from bazz, jessica and kebab because I don't think either of you could have gone much farther than your placements. Maybe if Kebab got idolled out before you, you could have made it much much farther because I would've been bing chilling with you but you two were just too much vote pads for much to change.
8. JAKEY
I put jakey a lot lower than me and woofley on this cause like woofley he did take a backseat but a lot to drew but whereas Woofley did have agency to make up for it Jakey didn't really have any cause he had a job and shit. Also he didn't really like the season that much which sucks but that's just the way the cookie crumbles.
9. LUIS
Luis at least could have made ftc but I don't think he had a chance of winning cause he got voted off pretty early after being a bit of a meme all game, came back, had to use an idol then died. I think too controversial of a character to really do much but he did get 5th so that's pretty good.
10/11/12. Cameron/Robynn/David
💔 when the allies get voted off back to back (the fajitas sizzling or whatever) yeah honestly the merge came on instantly and you would have made it farther but the prejury went so fast you guys got blasted and that really sucked especially since that was 3 of my allies gone going into the f9 and yeah.
13. NUB
Nub is the only player in the merge who legitimately fucked up.
nub_3_3 OK Hello! I need to do this:
<@323695449225691136> You manage to win 6 immunity...
how abstract can i get with this nub
it was the beginning of consciously committing yeah
by that time too i had already lost khana, you, nicholas, etc but rather than thinking I was fucked I realized I could effectively rely on the dynamics the game had which ripped open when david came back
speaking of that i think it's fucking criminal nicholas died so early i have said it probably like a dozen times but i fucking lvoed that fella
I do it cause I change up what I say every time someone asks
🔥 2
I already talked about what I did in the late game so I took something I did before that
If you're looking for coordination, I did talk this out a few rounds after with bazz. I mentioned that when David asked me about a strategic decision I made
robynn0132 <@647944649402613772> I felt you were rather fake at times in this game. Which I...
Jakey what did you do that was self interested for yourself and not drew?
Hi Robynn!!! I am thankful you asked this because all season long people grouped me into doing whatever drew was doing which couldn’t be further from the truth. I had no idea what that man was doing half the time LMAO. He was playing his own game as I was playing mine. We were on season 6 and every tribe together pre-merge so obviously we had the time to develop trust with each other and I was 100% loyal to Drew at the end of the day.
However, Drew and I were playing independently from each other. A lot of the time our games lined up because we were aligned with similar people most of the time. However, I didn’t care if his allies went that I wasn’t particularly close to. I didn’t care that I had to vote out Cooper because Cooper was coming for me. No offense to bestie but Drew wasn’t even on my mind at that tribal I was only thinking in my self interest. As for your tribal, Robynn, it was probably the hardest tribal because we just started on opposite sides of the game and we really were starting to build trust together that I was actually sad to see cut short. I would’ve loved to work with you longer but going for Drew really had no benefit to my game at the time and we weren’t really on solid footing yet to gage what you wanted to do long-term. I was thinking in my own self interest, not Drew’s, and it was sad and unfortunate for me either way. I always knew Drew was gonna be targeted before me whether I had immunity or not so keeping him was always going to benefit my own game. He was a number and loyal ally, but I was in no way playing for Drew to win. I was playing for myself the entire time.
nub_3_3 OK Hello! I need to do this:
<@323695449225691136> You manage to win 6 immunity...
Hi nub!!!!!!!!! Thank u for asking me this. I was safe from f8 onwards, but tbh I don’t think I needed it besides for the rock draw. Anywho, I was playing hard all season. The whole reason why I do these games is because I love the strategy aspect of the game. The whole time I was thinking strategically. How I can optimize my position in the game, manage my threat level, keep the people here I want here, get rid of the people that threaten my game, etc. First tribal I went to I immediately got the vote onto Woofley because I heard she had said my name the first tribal when Lily quit. She ended up whipping out her super duper idol power, and it was time to adapt from there. I end up making an alliance-deal thing with Woofley LOL where we just don’t go after each other and keep our names out of the crossfire.
Idoled out Nicholas with Drew and I can’t believe nobody else thought to throw votes here?? And then the Cooper tribal obvi we had to lock in. I knew I had Jess and I had to reassure you that I got your back if you kept me safe, and thats what I did. I was loyal to you until the end for that. But I think it really started after that, when the merge came back together. I really had to examine the game at that point and see who was standing in my way of being here. It really all went back to Ore and Kebab. Alllllll lines of communication would lead back to them. I can’t even begin to explain how, but the social capital they had on the season I saw was impeccable. I probably connected with them more than most the jury so I can see why, but I knew I had to get Bazz on board to go after Ore first. He said he would do Kebab after, which I knew was just bullshit LOL I knew they were super close. So at that point I knew Drew had an idol and I told him to play it to get Kebab out. I think that was the only way she would have left this game honestly. Even if it made Drew too big of a threat and was booted immediately after, I knew it was the only right decision for my game at the time. After that, it was obvious that Jessica and Bazz were like the only big threats left in the game. Jessica getting rocked out was completely out of my control. It was very bittersweet, mostly bitter, because I wanted to see the girl win if I couldn’t, but I knew she would’ve wiped the floor with my ass and she played a hell of a game. Luis go home. And then Bazz going was prob the hardest decision I had to make all game to send someone home I’ve been working with for 3 seasons. I’ve voted him out before, but right at the end is a different level of hard that I did not anticipate, but I still went through with because I knew it was the only strategic decision that made sense for my game. Battling separating those emotions at the end was prob the hardest moment for me yeah.
Overall tho I was playing hard like I was getting the votes. Getting the moves that needed to happen… happen! Ofc luck was involved this is survivor, but it really worked out perfectly for me no notes tbh
