Hi everyone. These are Max's Rites of Passage, talking about everyone that's fallen and gotten me here so far.



Oliver. The unfortunate first victim of the Anarchy twist. Had you won immunity that first challenge, there's no doubt in my mind that you would've gone far. For the short time I spent with you, I think we bonded. I don't know if it was fate that chose you, or it was some ploy after all, but I was very sad to see you go.



NJ. Very, very, very likeable person. In the short time we spent together, we could always have fun and goof around. It's very unfortunate that you had to essentially pull yourself out of the game for personal reasons, because you could've played a very nice UTR game in the long run. I hope to play wiht you again one day, because I think we haven't done enough together.



Corey. First in the Tribal phase. We had a little disagreement early on, and I would've loved to talk it out with you, but sadly you were voted out quickly. I think a lot of people saw your upfront personality as rude, while I think it's being honest. Nevertheless, I don't doubt that you could've made it far.



Gaby. You were so nice to me during the Anarchy phase, and I think we could've grown to be great friends, given the opportunity. I don't think I've ever met someone so religious before that also didn't judge or was a bigot. You are truly a nice person, simple as that, and you gave positive energy to the game. Thank you.



Sam. You were considered a huge threat early on, ever since the Oliver vote. There were a lot of people that agreed that you should not be given momentum. To be considered such a huge threat so early in the game really says something about you. Within days you were considered the largest target. Had you made it past the swap/merge, I have no doubt you would be standing here in the Final 4, not me.



Samm. I’ll always remember you as a fun guy. When we talked, we didn’t talk game all that often, more other things. I think that we could’ve become great friends. But the tribe was weary of you, since you were the one coming up with the Oliver vote. It seemed to us you had a lot of connections everywhere, and that made you dangerous. Like with Sam, to be seen as a huge threat that early on really is commendable. I also don’t doubt that you would’ve rocked in these individual immunity challenges, and that you would’ve brought much-needed fun to our tribe.



Danny. Oh, Danny. We’re buds, you know that. When we first got into tribes I was so, so happy I was with you, ‘cause I knew I could trust you. I never would’ve thought you’d go before the merge, EVER. I was absolutely certain you would make the jury, at least. But alas, sometimes things go differently. You know what I think of you, I think you’re an awesome dude to talk to, a really good strategist, an excellent social player, and I absolutely, absolutely wish you were here standing besides me right now. That vote broke my heart, but it really flared me to do well in this season. Thank you, Danny.



Joshua. Certainly the hardest vote to do, probably on par with Danny. I was heartbroken when I had to vote you out. It sucked you were just on the wrong side of the numbers. In this game, I remember you as a fun guy, always ready for a talk, and never angry, and that’s a lot in a game like Survivor. I think that you also would’ve been a very big challenge beast, had the time come around. I was very sorry to see you go.



Kevin. I guess the first real blindside of the game. If there’s one thing I’ll give you, it’s that you were very aware of the game. You were absolutely correct in seeing the Dutchies were running things. I guess your downfall was that you were too obvious with your plans, trusting some people too much. Had you gone to the merge, you no doubt would’ve made an alliance and wrecked shit up. You were a very dangerous social player.



Gaston. The first merge boot. Seeing as you were chosen as a team captain when the mass mutiny happened, and after that leading an undefeated tribe up to the merge, you were considered a huge threat. I’m sorry you didn’t have time to develop into the merge. I remember just before you were voted off, that we had a nice chat about parties and all. I keep that as a reference of how we had our interactions: nice and fun.



Yannick. My bud, my man, my superhero. I think we had a pretty special bond ever since we got into the merge, seeing as we were pretty much both the outsiders on the tribe. That bonded us, I think, and a great friendship came in. You’re a great guy, and super fun to just be around. If we’re ever in the same place, I’d totally just cancel all my appointments of the day, and just hang out all the time. You’d be the dude I’d do that with. Thanks for the great fun.



Mantis. You pulled yourself from the game due to personal reasons, which I will respect and therefore keep it short. Mantis, I remember when we first started. I was sitting in the library at 10 in the morning, trying to finish a paper due that afternoon, but I also saw I was gonna be in this game. Not many people were online, but you were, and we immediately clicked over anime. We were split up during the tribal phase, and unfortunately couldn’t bond again in the merge. Mantis, my friend, all the best in the world.



Jack. When I first came into this game, I’d just been voted out first in Wonderland, the 80-persons season going on at that time, also by you. So immediately we had a bit of a rivalry going on. But I’m glad to say we got over that quickly and became friends. You were the first person I went to when I was thinking of getting a blindside done, and you stuck through with it till the end, thank you for that. In short, started as enemies, became friends. Thanks.



Simon. You were absolutely the funny guy of the season. You were always the one trying to get the boring chat to conversation, and when it worked we always had fun. You were a great social player, having bonds with everyone on the tribe, and that’s why we voted you out. You’ve made this game to what it is, because you never stopped having fun with us. Thank you for that.



Jimmy. When I was at a low point in this game, I came to you and you gave me honest advice, not related to the game, straight to the point but very nicely delivered. Thank you so, so much for that, it really showed me the way I wanted to go in this game. But besides that, we were friends, true friends I feel, even while we lived on different sides of the planet. But most of all, you beard is awesome so never shave that thing off or I’ll hunt you down and glue it back on.



Amber. I didn’t know you when we went into this game, and I still sometimes wonder if I ever truly knew you. When my blindside backfired on me, you were shocked and hurt, and I again want to apologize for that. But even after that, you kept me around and never treated me like how I should be treated after that. You’re a truly good person for doing that. Sorry again, and thank you for everything you’ve done for me.

And that’s it for me.
