Board Thread:Season 31 - Retribution/@comment-24277959-20160303025325

38 days. What a ride. SO HERE GOES NOTHING.



MJ: I never had the chance to talk to you (like 80% of the cast lol) but I do remember sometime before this season looking at your track record on tumblr survivor and it was phenomenal. And that you got to go to the Rodney Bowl which is cool. I think it was pretty clear you were the victim of a crazy twist on Day 1 but if anything I think lots of people were glad that a huge threat was taken out before they could get started.

Will: Will, it’s been crazy because I really like you a lot in terms of the common interests we have and yet in two ORGs together we’ve never gotten a true opportunity to work together! You were honestly just a really really unfortunate victim of circumstance on Day 1 and the vote switched to you when people figured you were a strong player on the wrong side of the numbers. I honestly think it’s a crime that your second chance story had to end like that but I really respect how you took your exit with a head held high.

Hannah: Hannah! Every org I see you in you’re either at the end or out early, but unfortunately it was the latter this time around. I think we shared something heading into this season both being 2nd boots at the hands of both the goats and winners of our seasons, so I wouldn’t have minded working with you at some point in the game bc of that but things didn’t work out that way.

Kaeden: Kaeden, you’re honestly a giant ball of energy around the chat or just in general here on FB, and honestly I wanted to clean the slate over Skye Islands and work with you this season, but it was difficult for me to do so when you went back to former tactics like overloading up in alliances, and I knew I was left out in the inner circle of some of those groups. That’s why the 5 that voted you had to do so, but know that there was no personal malice behind it and be proud that your boot was one of the few non-unanimous ones of the premerge.

Austin: Austin, welp clearly you have something against me since you’ve unfriended me and I know you do that to people all the time when you’re voted out, and if that’s a personal decision that’s fine and I don’t mind, but like Kaeden I never had anything personal in casting my vote against you but if you felt it was otherwise I can’t prevent you from feeling that way. Regardless I think you can be a charismatic and relatively strong player, I think if you can just keep things cool and in check in the premerge you can make a real run at some of these ORGs.

Sam: Sammmm, like Kaeden I really wanted to wipe the slate clean after Skye Islands and I definitely think you were proactive in making that happen and I really appreciated that and wanted to reciprocate that. Ik I said things in my SI confs that I regret but you should know this season that I really enjoyed playing w/ you and idk whether or not your mutiny was intentional but I didn’t plan on targeting you anytime soon and it was unfortunate you had to leave.

Felix: Felix! I think you’re a really straight up and cool guy, that and seeing how you just won the BB org I know you’re a great player. I just think you ended up on the wrong side of the numbers this season and even though you tried to deviate from your original group, the mutiny definitely made it hard for you to pick up the pieces, and it was sad to see you go. Also props to you for wrecking that video game identification challenge, glad to know there’s some other gamers around here in this community lol

Trent: Trent, well I’ll keep this short since you have me #blocked, I have absolutely nothing against you and I wasn’t even a primary factor behind your vote, in fact you’ll see in confessionals that I found the move difficult bc I thought you were a good guy, but I guess you already had something against me since you rejected my friend request before the season even began during the campaigning process but it’s whatever, if you want nothing to do w/ me that’s cool and gl with whatever you do in the future

Zach: Hey another person that unfriended me! And know what, it’s understandable this time because of the little spat we had during the challenge results, and hey, things happen during the season and emotions run high, I’m not saying I regret what I said but either way it was cool to see an old schooler like you play in the season and ik we share a huge love for sports and it’s rare to see a person that shares that around here. Sorry about the Panthers LOL

Yannick: THE ASS EATER HIMSELF, and easily my closest and best friend around here. I’m so glad we had an opportunity to play together this season and if there’s one regret I have, it’s seeing your time cut short. When you left on Day 18 I felt that a big part of my game did as well, I lost someone I could 100% confide in, reciprocate ideas with, and just talking before and during this season with you about the game was so enjoyable. If anything, know that your exit was the reason my game set off to absolute overdrive and be glad that you can be the king of Ponderosa with your PARCHMENTS, A+ work on those and it was a ride playing this season with you brother

Danielle: Dani, easily one of the nicest and easiest to get along with players in the game. One thing I definitely am not proud of this season was lying to you during the swap, and never resuming any game talks with you before your voteout. I just thought that the allies you had I didn’t have, and vice versa, and that’s why I had to go against you from a strict game perspective. Either way you were a huge force this season, and it’s safe to say you could’ve wrecked a lot of people in a jury vote and that was found to be threatening. I’ll definitely never forget that crazy endurance challenge and the duel we had, staying overnight to the morning, all while I was just trying to get that fucking idol clue which was eventually offered LOL

Nick: Nick City himself, the votes against whore of the season, lemme be the first to say it was sad to see you come short of that record LOL WHOOPS. Jokes aside I was really glad you were a part of this season and I definitely think you were one of the primary people to truly embrace the idea of a second chance and just rock the whole season. You got me good on the Yannick vote, and you really could’ve gotten away with it had things not fallen apart w/ Bryce. Your gameplay absolutely embodies the idea of go big or go home and you played with that fire and intensity all season, and even when you go down, it has to be w/ an idol in a blaze of glory. Loved playing with you!

Ethan: Ethan! With all the chaos happening throughout the game, w/ the people I saw going home and the things that were happening, at one point you were actually my #1 in this game. I think you’re a really good dude and you were definitely going to be my biggest challenge competition had you stayed to see the remerge. With that being said, you were easily one of the strongest players this season and you could’ve taken the whole thing had the unmerge didn’t exist or if yall won that challenge, which I may add you poured your absolute heart out and were the only one on your team giving a shit that during it, and that’s really why I was gutted to see your voteout. Either way I definitely would love to see you play another season, and I look forward to backstabbing you more in Team Fortress 2 [=

Jordan: Jordan, looking back I think of all the people this season you really surprised me the most with your gameplay. I knew and you knew that heading into this season people may have had assumptions of your game in 703 Resurgence, but I think that was strictly because of irl restrictions that prevented you from playing this game, and that may have even carried onto this one. But either way when that remerge came you definitely got the ball rolling and played a lot of angles, and it was only with a last second note comparison that your name got brought up and got taken out in the madness of everything. You were a huge fighter this season and you really didn’t take your second chance for granted, loved playing with you man and know that you’re a great person with a great heart.

<p class="MsoNormal">Michelle: what’s up ketchup. LOL. I’ll start off by saying you were a huge social and strategic threat in this game. I think you made yourself as an available option and vote to get to just about everyone in this game, but still you would have it where more times than not you would be on the winning side of the vote or have things go your way. You were tough to read yet many times, though a lot of times this season I really needed you, and I think when we did work together we could’ve done some damage. Also I have to add that my decision to vote you out in the revote wasn’t bc I thought you were coming after me, but it was strictly strategic which I can explain if I reach the end. So great game and know that I’m happy I got to play this season w/ another Filipino(=

<p class="MsoNormal">Bryce: MY DOUCHEBAG BRO, and personally to me a very strong candidate for player of the season. You played with a relentlessness and an aggressiveness I’ve never seen before this season, making moves to benefit you in the present and in the future, always trying to stay one step ahead. I definitely enjoyed the hour+ long calls we had this season, whether we actually would end up working together on the vote or if I’d just end up winging an idol for JACK SHIT. While I loved the prospect of working with you past the F7, I still think you would’ve been after me sooner or later, either that or you would have beat me in a jury vote, so that’s why I had to make the move that I did. Regardless, it was a pleasure playing this game with you and I definitely expect to talk about this experience for a long time to come. Much love and maybe I’ll order that BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA from Dominos one day[=

<p class="MsoNormal">Taylor: Taylor, next to Bryce I definitely saw you as one of the biggest threats to win this whole entire thing. You bring a straightforwardness and a charisma to the table I don’t think I can replicate, and strategically you did an excellent job in repositioning yourself - as I believe you were one of the only Nick voters on that Day 1 tribal to make it deep into the game. I have to apologize for the antics I stirred during your voteout, while I think there was a possibility of you being loyal to me during that vote, I believe it would’ve been for that vote only, as I don’t think we could’ve reached the end together and that’s why I had to strike while I had that idol in my pocket. That aside you were a very strong player this season and if it’s any consolation, I don’t even think you should’ve been on this season since you should have won Kamchatka LMAO

<p class="MsoNormal">Grace: Grace! I remember predicting this season you would be one of, if not my biggest competition heading into this season, and I think it’s safe to say that would be correct. I’m actually shocked that both of us made it as far as we did, not because we’re incapable players, but rather I would’ve expected one or the other of us to be gone at that point. We never had a real solid or established alliance in this game, but things fell in a way where we were able to work on and off together, that or just stay out of each others way. I think after the shitty card you were dealt with in Rome you were really able to get an actual chance to play the game this season, and you didn’t disappoint - you went down fighting until the bitter end, and that’s something I really respect and appreciate. Had you won that F5 immunity I really believe you would’ve won this game. So kudos to you and it was a joy to play this season with you. BTW MY VOICE ISN’T THAT DEEP

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">With that out of the way, all I have to say is I loved playing this season and I’m proud to say we were all part of something amazing. Fuckin’ CHEERS
