ATRL Moderator Element Posted December 17, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted December 17, 2023 @Armani? @Aurora @EnterTheAttic @fiercE Welcome to the Final Immunity Challenge! For those who have followed past ATRL Survivor seasons, you might be anticipating an intensive challenge of puzzles. However, this season we are mixing things up with a brand new challenge! It has been done many times on the actual TV show, but never on ATRL. We are excited to introduce... Simmotion! Simmotion is a test of your concentration and focus. You will be responsible for managing multiple colored balls in your designated FIC channel on Discord. Every single minute, you will have to post the sequence of balls again. If your current minute sequence goes into the next minute, you will lose. When you are ready to begin, you will post Ball #1 in the channel. At the start of every single minute, you will post the Ball #1 image again. After five minutes, aka five ball posts, you will add Ball #2 into the mix. You must now post Ball #1 and Ball #2 within the same minute. Every five minutes, you will drop the next ball in. The maximum amount of balls you can have is 12. When you reach 12 balls, you must continue to post them for as long as you can. There is no break when you add a new ball; you must post it immediately after the previous ball. To make things more tricky, a five second flood control will be turned on. Not only do you have to stay organized and concentrate on what balls need to be posted, but you need to be as accurate as possible to avoid timing out due to flood control. You will be eliminated from the challenge if: - You miss/skip a ball post - Post your ball outside of the current minute window - Post the wrong numbered ball (they must be posted in order) Here is an example of how a posting sequence for this challenge may go. You might not need to follow this exact 5 second interval at first; but as the challenge progresses, it will become critical for you to adhere to the 5 second interval early in the minute, as you will run out of time on the other end of the minute. Spoiler 9:00:00 - Ball #1 9:01:00 - Ball #1 9:02:00 - Ball #1 9:03:00 - Ball #1 9:04:00 - Ball #1 9:05:00 - Ball #1 / 9:05:05 - Ball #2 9:06:00 - Ball #1 / 9:06:05 - Ball #2 9:07:00 - Ball #1 / 9:07:05 - Ball #2 9:08:00 - Ball #1 / 9:08:05 - Ball #2 9:09:00 - Ball #1 / 9:09:05 - Ball #2 9:10:00 - Ball #1 / 9:10:05 - Ball #2 / 9:10:10 - Ball #3 9:11:00 - Ball #1 / 9:11:05 - Ball #2 / 9:11:10 - Ball #3 9:12:00 - Ball #1 / 9:12:05 - Ball #2 / 9:12:10 - Ball #3 9:13:00 - Ball #1 / 9:13:05 - Ball #2 / 9:13:10 - Ball #3 9:14:00 - Ball #1 / 9:14:05 - Ball #2 / 9:14:10 - Ball #3 9:15:00 - Ball #1 / 9:15:05 - Ball #2 / 9:15:10 - Ball #3 / 9:15:15 - Ball #4 9:16:00 - Ball #1 / 9:16:05 - Ball #2 / 9:16:10 - Ball #3 / 9:16:15 - Ball #4 9:17:00 - Ball #1 / 9:17:05 - Ball #2 / 9:17:10 - Ball #3 / 9:17:15 - Ball #4 9:18:00 - Ball #1 / 9:18:05 - Ball #2 / 9:18:10 - Ball #3 / 9:18:15 - Ball #4 9:19:00 - Ball #1 / 9:19:05 - Ball #2 / 9:19:10 - Ball #3 / 9:19:15 - Ball #4 You are allowed ONE attempt to compete the challenge officially. You will also be given one hour to practice the challenge. To keep things even and fair, if you go over this hour, you will be penalized. The person who is able to stay focused and last the longest will win immunity and a spot in the Final Tribal Council! Here are the 12 colored balls: If you are curious to watch the real version: Spoiler You will have 24 hours to compete. The deadline for completion is 10 PM EST on Sunday, December 17th. Good luck everyone!

rl231 Posted December 19, 2023 Author Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) Welcome everyone to this season's Final Tribal Council! Our Top 3 has been officially decided, so it is now time to move on to the Final Interview stage of the game. This stage of the game is a final chance for the remaining three castaways to prove why they deserve the title of Sole Survivor. Below are three sections detailing how the Finale will work on your part. Read the section corresponding to you. ______________________________________________________________________ To the Judges: We want to thank @Auburn @boys @Gateau @luckystrike @Rotunda @Staryu @supaspaz @wishfor taking out some time of their schedules to help judge this season! We appreciate for for all of your dedication over the past couple months, and we couldn't do this without you. Your jobs as judges are over, but you may all post a few questions in the thread if you're wondering anything about the castaways. See the jury section for more information. ______________________________________________________________________ To the Viewers: Thank you for being so great (and also for being as discreet as possible)! You all are definitely welcome to ask unbiased questions if you're wondering anything about the castaways. See the jury section for more information. ______________________________________________________________________ To the Jury: @ZORBIT @gardendreams @Kyuti @Titsanny @MusicLoverDude @Golden Hour @Seffers @blackoutbaby @Alldeezy @Aurora For some of you, it's been over a month since your elimination. For others, you're newer to Ponderosa. But all of you have been chatting it up on Discord, and we're grateful for that! You all have two tasks for this finale. One is optional while the other is mandatory. The first task is for you to ask questions of the final three. We have been (well you all have, thank you!) consolidating all jury questions on Discord and will post them tomorrow night for the finalists. Please join us there to send your question(s). You may submit one, a few, or none at all if you're content with your viewership of this season. Make sure to specify whether your question(s) are for one specific castaway or all of them. You may also include whatever commentary you want (go all out, if your heart desires). Also don't send us too general questions as we will have all of those covered in the interview, as you will see below. Feel free to have a civil discussion in the thread in response to the finalists' statements - followup questions are allowed but be reasonable. MOST IMPORTANT: The second (mandatory) task for the Jury will be to vote for the winner. Your voting window will start at 12 PM EST on Thursday, December 21st, which is 24 hours before the voting period ends (12 PM EST on Friday, December 22nd). More information on voting will be given after the interviews are posted. Here are the questions that we will be sending the finalists. Please do not ask them over again: Spoiler Did you have a strategy coming in here or no? What were your initial thoughts coming into this game? How did you think you'd place at the start of the season? Did you expect to make it to the Final Tribal Council? Who did you expect to see in the Final Tribal Council in your honest opinion? Why? Did you have any special memories from this season or learn anything about yourself? Based on your actions alone, why should you win this game? Why shouldn't your opponents win this game? Which other contestants deserved to be in the finale with you? Take us through your alliances this season. Did you betray any allies you had during the season? If so, who & why? Do you have any regrets in the competition that you feel could hurt you in the vote? Which part of your gameplay do you think was the strongest: social, strategic, or strength (i.e. challenge scores)? Do you think you were more of a threat or an underdog this season? Do you have any final words before we leave this vote up to the Jury? To the final 3: @Armani? @EnterTheAttic @fiercE Congratulations again on making it as far as you can go! A PM (yes, on ATRL haha) will be in your inbox consisting of your final interview. This will be the last chance to make an argument for your win so we advise you all to put great effort into it. After all, it is your last task and can be the deciding factor in who takes the win home with them this season. The deadline for your interview submission is going to be Wednesday, December 20th @ 6 PM EDT (less than 2 days). Get it done ASAP please! Once you are done with your interview, you will submit it to us and then they will all be posted on the 20th (or when all three are submitted). The voting period will be 24 hours, making our finale planned for 1 PM EDT on Friday, December 22nd!! That's it, everybody! Thanks to the judges, once again! Please attempt to submit a question if you're a Jury member. And finally, good luck to the Top 3 castaways! Armani | EnterTheAttic | fiercE Edited December 19, 2023 by rl231
Galah Posted December 19, 2023 Posted December 19, 2023 Not trying to steal any thunder from the final tribal council but since I was working during my elimination I wanted to take a moment to say a little something. Firstly... these votes?! Why am I getting sentimental. idk why y'all dragged me for the Attic vote, I find this cute af and honestly really wholesome. Like fiercE's vote for me is legitimately beautiful? How can I be mad at that. Maybe signing votes will be the new trend? #trendsetter I had so much fun playing this season. Honestly the only reason I signed up for this season was to prove that when it was my time to go, I could bow out gracefully and hopefully redeem myself a little from last season's... escapade. If you know, you know. So to go as far as one can go in a season while still having the opportunity to be voted out and accept that somewhat gracefully? Honestly, I couldn't have hoped for much more. Of course, making the final tribal council would have been amazing—and trust me, I tried every trick I could think of to potentially get there—but ultimately I am at peace with my placement, and looking forward to experiencing my role as juror. The parallels between me and Carson Garrett are honestly too much, and I mean... I'm not complaining. He's a cutie. Thanks to the hosties and judges for dedicating so much of your time into making this such a fun tournament once again. Now good luck to the finalists! 7
rl231 Posted December 20, 2023 Author Posted December 20, 2023 @Armani? @EnterTheAttic @fiercE Hi everyone, here are the jury questions that they compiled for you. Please answer ALL of these by Thursday at midnight EST, thanks! The jury is allowed to ask more questions if they so choose to (or post on their own...) @Armani?'s Questions: From @Seffers: In this game you have made several decisions that could potentially have cut ties with members of the jury. If you could undo one decision, which one would it be and why? From @blackoutbaby: You claimed you were loyal in an answer to a question asked by element before the top 6 elimination. Do you think lying blatantly is in your inherent nature or do you actually have some sense of regret? From @MusicLoverDude: What was your strategy with saving Attic during the Top 5 tribal council? You had an opportunity to save yourself and you used your power to save someone else. @EnterTheAttic's Questions: From @Seffers: Out of the remaining competitors, you played the most open and honest game. Was there any point during the game where this backfired and how would you have approached it differently if so? From @gardendreams: There seemed to be a couple moments where you didn’t vote correctly (MLD, Seffers) . Was there a strategic reasoning behind this? From @blackoutbaby: You played a game where you made many different alliances. Do you think this was smart, considering jury would take note? Or do you feel like being honest about multiple alliances worked in your favor? From @gardendreams: You were very close with MusicLoverDude throughout the whole game. When Armani voted him off, why did you not seek revenge and continued working with him? From @MusicLoverDude: Of the three people who made the final, you had the lowest cumulative score out of them. And you were vocal about your struggles with multiple challenges. But you managed to not receive a single vote during the merge until Top 5. Do you think that your social connections made up for your struggle with the challenges? @fiercE's Questions: From @MusicLoverDude: During the top 9 tribal council, you were without a vote. Were the other tribe members aware of this or and if they weren’t, were you afraid that you would have been that round’s target if so? From @MusicLoverDude: You won multiple items this season. You used both of them which evidently prevented you from being eliminated in two different tribal councils, including one where you weren’t the targeted vote. In particular, what was your strategy behind the whisk away power move at the Top 7? Is there any way you saw yourself using your items differently? Questions for ALL: From @gardendreams: You need at least 6 votes from the jury to win. Who do you think each person on the jury will vote for? This season was full of twists! Hypnosis, escaping confinement, illusions, etc. How do you think your gameplay lived up to a season full of twists? Do you think your gameplay was as captivating as the magic we saw? You three seemed to be very loyal to each other, was there a moment you wanted to betray this alliance or was there never a good time? How does your gameplay differ from each other since you’ve played so closely together.

Firstly, congratulations to you all. One way or another, you three have managed to do what 21 other players could not, myself included. So credit to you all for that. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know you all quite closely over the past month, and now I have the even greater pleasure of being able to share my personal insights with the other jury members. The very same jury members who will be deciding your fate in this finale. Before my imminent departure, I gave you all the opportunity to fight for my vote during this final tribal council. One of you took up the opportunity willingly, one of you unwittingly told me all I needed to know, and the other stood resolute, seemingly confident enough in their ability to persuade me tonight. *Aurora adjusts her semi-translucent custom-made periwinkle Versace gown as she turns to face EnterTheAttic directly.* Attic, sweet sweet Attic. You were one of the first players on New Houdini who I connected with. We hit it off very well. So well, that when a potential opportunity came to link up with other Tamariz and Copperfield members and vote you out, I fought tooth and nail to dissuade others from voting for you, which ultimately led to the blindside of my closest ally at the time, Lemon. Despite you being defenceless without a vote in the following tribal council, and more votes being cast your way from Devon and Kyuti, I stuck true to my gut and voted alongside Armani and fiercE to protect you. Flash forward to the top five tribal council when fiercE was actively trying to blindside me, you had zero intention to inform me of this. After Alldeezy did, and I carried through with the plan to vote for you rather than the only player that was genuinely honest with me, you publicly called me out, and privately insisted that you deflected many votes from me in the past. If this was true, you never informed me when my name was brought up, which is something an honest ally would do—something I did for you. This either indicates you lied when you told me you deflected many votes from me, or you neglected to alert me to potential threats that considered voting me out. Either scenario shatters the illusion of you playing this entire game with honesty, loyalty, and integrity for me. This isn’t even taking into account how you blatantly asked me and others to leak information pertaining to a hypnosis challenge in which you already had been afforded an advantage, or incessantly voting for certain players despite what others in your alliance may have wanted or considered the best option for the group as a whole. Regardless, smiling in somebody’s face as you slide the knife in their back is not honesty. I don’t believe Golden Hour nor Alldeezy would consider it to be, and I certainly don’t, and clearly you don’t even believe that yourself after your outburst following my signed vote for you. A huge part—if not the entirety—of your game has relied on preaching honesty and loyalty, yet I and others have firsthand lived experience that these are not qualities which you can genuinely claim to possess. These are not even qualities that I would consider to be fundamental strengths in a game such as Survivor. My question to you is this: Can you own up to one single move you made independently during this entire game that did not display the qualities of honesty, loyalty, or integrity, yet was instrumental in getting you to the final tribal council? *Aurora shifts her gaze to fiercE, the glint from the VVS diamond hanging from her 18 karat gold chain blinding EnterTheAttic as she does so.* Hello, fiercE. I’d like to formally acknowledge the accuracy of the name you call yourself by. You were undoubtedly—to me, at least—a fierce player in this game. In fact, I believed this to be so true that I marked you as a potential target as early as round six, after just two rounds of being on the same tribe together. Yes, the initiator of the plan to vote for you that round was never Devon or Lemon, but me. However, my ability to read the room and switch back to voting Devon at the last minute enabled me to deflect the blame and form an alliance with you, Attic, and Armani, which persisted until the end. Throughout my final hours at the Hex tribe camp, we had quite a lengthy debate about your gameplay and your chances of winning the title of Sole Survivor against Armani and Attic. You admitted that you felt I was your greatest threat, as you believed I played a better game than either of the two castaways currently sitting beside you. I clearly broke down key aspects of your game that faltered in comparison to Armani’s—such as his successful idol play vs. your unnecessary one—or Attic’s—such as his general likeability and honourable perception by a majority of the jury. Despite this, you were incapable of separating your own lived experience in this game alongside me from the potential analysis of events through the eyes of a juror long since cut off from the day-to-day happenings and private conversations. Even more interesting was how you believed others to perceive you: as someone weak who would be sought out by others to align with and drag to the end. You may argue this facade worked, given you won the “biggest goat” category in Majority Rules, but spoiler alert: this was a three way tie between yourself, Alldeezy, and blackoutbaby. Since you proudly declared, “Apparently voting for myself is a good strategy,” only one other person actually agreed with you on this—and best believe it was not me. Ultimately, I won Majority Rules due to my perceptiveness, yet you rejected my analysis of the jury in favour of your own distorted one. I warned you that you did not have a “big move” that would convince any potentially undecided jurors to vote for you tonight. I even laid out a perfect plan that would have undoubtedly turned this game on its head, and made heads turn in your favour. Convinced I was wrong and simply selling myself short—despite my obvious involvement in voting out almost everyone on the jury—you chose the easy vote. My question to you is this: Does any part of you worry that I may be right, and if you receive the least votes to win, will you stand by—or regret—your decision? *Aurora makes what can only be described as a “stank face” at fiercE, tapping her right heel. Impatiently awaiting his response, Aurora directs her villainous gaze towards Armani.* Anthony Armani Sanders. Why do I know your government name, yet very little about your actual gameplay throughout the majority of this season despite being in an alliance with you? You were always purposely ambiguous to a fault, and never provided any more information than you deemed absolutely necessary. Most of what I was able to infer about you was either through my own perceptiveness, or provided by others. Honestly, this could be considered a very good strategy… but I’m not convinced. It’s one thing to be a covert mastermind, keeping all of your biggest strategies and boldest moves under lock and key until the perfect time, but it’s another thing entirely to just land on a good tribe, not bother making any waves, and riding with greater strategic (fiercE) and social (Attic) players than yourself. They were also your most familiar allies, and staying aligned with them was simply easy for you, as you were never on a tribe without them by your side. Despite aligning with MusicLoverDude and blackoutbaby earlier in this game, and me later in this game, you found it easier to turn on and vote for all of us, simply because we hadn’t spent as many consecutive days in contact with you. Allowing the movements of the game to dictate your core alliance rather than forging a path for yourself and staying true to others despite the separations tells me a lot about you. Regardless, I view you as somewhat of an all-rounder in this final 3: you never really excelled at any aspect of this game, but there is nothing I can truly fault you on either. But does being a jack of all trades, yet a master of none, really make for a Sole Survivor? I have to credit you for your hidden immunity idol play (which I gather you won during the quick change challenge), which for me was one of the biggest moves of the season. But again, as always, it was simply the easy thing to do: you had already won individual immunity, it was your final chance to play the idol, and Attic’s name was out there as a potential vote that night. Any sense of gamble or risk in that play was simply non-existent. As of now, were I to vote for you as Sole Survivor, it would merely be by process of elimination. In a rare moment of transparency, you indicated that you had personally considered a potential final 3 of you, Attic, and I—but were unsure how to pitch it to Attic, fearing they may have been closer to fiercE than yourself. My question to you is this: Was this hypothetical final 3 with you, Attic, and I something that genuinely crossed your mind, and if so, was playing your hidden immunity idol for Attic part of your plan to get Attic to trust you more than fiercE? *Aurora casts a vicious side eye towards Armani, smacking her lips as she turns to face the jury, quickly checking her perfectly manicured French tips in the process.* Before I rejoin you tonight, I’d like to say one final thing to my fellow jurors. I know I’m the new girl on the block in Ponderosa, but I implore you all to think not only with your own mind when deciding who to write on that pretty little parchment this evening, but also from the perspective of the viewers. Who would you root for if you were an impartial observer in this game? Despite what each of these castaways may—or may not—have done to or for you, who genuinely deserves to walk away from this experience with the title of Sole Survivor? Dulcius ex asperis. *Aurora struts back over to her place on the jury bench, graciously crossing her legs as she provides one final fiery glare at the final 3, mouthing the words, “Look it up.”* 1 2

But does being a jack of all trades, yet a master of none, really make for a Sole Survivor? I have to credit you for your hidden immunity idol play (which I gather you won during the quick change challenge), which for me was one of the biggest moves of the season. But again, as always, it was simply the easy thing to do: you had already won individual immunity, it was your final chance to play the idol, and Attic’s name was out there as a potential vote that night. Any sense of gamble or risk in that play was simply non-existent. As of now, were I to vote for you as Sole Survivor, it would merely be by process of elimination. In a rare moment of transparency, you indicated that you had personally considered a potential final 3 of you, Attic, and I—but were unsure how to pitch it to Attic, fearing they may have been closer to fiercE than yourself. My question to you is this: Was this hypothetical final 3 with you, Attic, and I something that genuinely crossed your mind, and if so, was playing your hidden immunity idol for Attic part of your plan to get Attic to trust you more than fiercE? *Aurora casts a vicious side eye towards Armani, smacking her lips as she turns to face the jury, quickly checking her perfectly manicured French tips in the process.* Before I rejoin you tonight, I’d like to say one final thing to my fellow jurors.

Armani? Posted December 20, 2023 Posted December 20, 2023 13 hours ago, Aurora said: *Aurora elegantly rises from the jury bench and stands tall before the final 3 in her Spring 2024 Jimmy Choos, her perfectly conditioned golden locks flowing with radiance in the subtle Samoan breeze.* Anthony Armani Sanders. Why do I know your government name, yet very little about your actual gameplay throughout the majority of this season despite being in an alliance with you? You were always purposely ambiguous to a fault, and never provided any more information than you deemed absolutely necessary. Most of what I was able to infer about you was either through my own perceptiveness, or provided by others. Honestly, this could be considered a very good strategy… but I’m not convinced. It’s one thing to be a covert mastermind, keeping all of your biggest strategies and boldest moves under lock and key until the perfect time, but it’s another thing entirely to just land on a good tribe, not bother making any waves, and riding with greater strategic (fiercE) and social (Attic) players than yourself. They were also your most familiar allies, and staying aligned with them was simply easy for you, as you were never on a tribe without them by your side. Despite aligning with MusicLoverDude and blackoutbaby earlier in this game, and me later in this game, you found it easier to turn on and vote for all of us, simply because we hadn’t spent as many consecutive days in contact with you. Allowing the movements of the game to dictate your core alliance rather than forging a path for yourself and staying true to others despite the separations tells me a lot about you.

Dulcius ex asperis. *Aurora struts back over to her place on the jury bench, graciously crossing her legs as she provides one final fiery glare at the final 3, mouthing the words, “Look it up.”* @MusicLoverDude would have survived longer in this game, but they were exposed pre plotting voting me off, so it was only logical to get rid of them before I was in the next round struggling to whip votes to save myself It was purely a strategic move on my part. Obviously they were too competitive in the challenges as well, so that sealed the deal. I only voted for you in the Top 4 Aurora lol. And you're also a much bigger threat than Attic to winning this. You did say we should vote off whoever has the best chance of getting votes from the jury yourself from your own perspective. Attic didn't become one of my very closest allies from my perspective till the round MLD tried backdooring me which completely changed my game layout. Attic was in my 2nd alliance which didn't happen till the swap. That said, Attic was never a threat to me, so in that way it was easy to cruise to the Top 3 alongside him. Also Blackoutbaby was becoming too distant to literally everyone after the merge by their social activity. At the very beginning, my strategy (in my own confessional) was indeed getting Attic to trust me more by using the idol to save him so I wouldn't be voted off the next episode. However at this specific time I think, I hadn't inboxed you yet, so in my mind was only Fierce telling me you wanted Attic off (I lied about not talking to Fierce, although he pressured Attic much more to vote you since Fierce didn't exactly prefer me to be Top 3 compared to Attic for obvious reasons.) Obviously that changed when we did talk which made it much more confusing. But the strategy was still the same, while also getting Alldeezy out the game so that Fierce didn't have such a easy pathway to Top 3 in the Top 4. Yes, the hosts @Element @rl231 or viewers can confirm on this top 3 brainstorming. On December 4th, 7:25pm I did consider a Top 3 between me, you & Attic. I thought of you, and that you obviously weren't just going to be content with 4th place without a fight. I also was aware of the challenge of clearly getting Attic to be closer to me than Fierce. 15 hours ago, rl231 said: @Armani? @EnterTheAttic @fiercE Hi everyone, here are the jury questions that they compiled for you. Please answer ALL of these by Thursday at midnight EST, thanks! The jury is allowed to ask more questions if they so choose to (or post on their own...) @Armani?'s Questions: From @Seffers: In this game you have made several decisions that could potentially have cut ties with members of the jury. If you could undo one decision, which one would it be and why? From @blackoutbaby: You claimed you were loyal in an answer to a question asked by element before the top 6 elimination. Do you think lying blatantly is in your inherent nature or do you actually have some sense of regret? From @MusicLoverDude: What was your strategy with saving Attic during the Top 5 tribal council? You had an opportunity to save yourself and you used your power to save someone else. The 1st two answers were already pretyped & will be a part of my bigger essay with the questions lol To @blackoutbaby "I do try to be loyal in my gameplay to my allies instead of just blindly & carelessly backstabbing or manipulating everyone I come across but I guess I technically betrayed Blackoutbaby by voting them. That said, my vote was purely logical, Blackoutbaby lost their vote by the way in this specific tribal council. I did not want the vote to go to a tie because Blackoutbaby wouldn't survive it(what really ended up happening is that Blackoutbaby was 100% screwed either way since Alldeezy voted or bootlist voted Blackout & not Attic like they told me.) If it did tie, it would have potentially tied again 2nd vote since both Fierce & Aurora wanted Blackoutbaby OUT (which made sense strategically from their point of view), and that would only leave me & Attic to vote since Alldeezy loses their vote in a tie, in which case it would go to the rocks potentially. I know they were upset with me but I couldn't do anything that round, it was their time to go to the afterlife. They should have built more relationships with the players in the game. Could I have used my idol? Yes, I guess. But I felt that would have made me a target the next round which I learned allegedly was already being discussed regardless according to @fiercE soon after. To @Seffers "We weren't in a alliance but I guess in this specific round I positioned myself to be ally. I usually try white lying or avoiding saying something upright just so I can say I didn't lie lmao. Although I guess in the round you were eliminated I did lie & say I wanted to vote off Alldeezy. Why? Well you were a challenge threat with your alleged vote nullifier & hypnosis. That couldn't continue in future rounds & I can't say I necessarily regret it. I don't regret any of my gameplay moves." To @MusicLoverDude I think you missed I already had immunity from winning/being #1 on the challenge that round. So I still had an extra immunity item to use which would expire that round. As for saving Attic, Aurora asked the same question. I wanted to be on the good side of Attic & get rid of Alldeezy because Fierce didn't want any possibilities of being voted off in the Top 4. 15 hours ago, rl231 said: Questions for ALL: From @gardendreams: You need at least 6 votes from the jury to win. Who do you think each person on the jury will vote for? This season was full of twists! Hypnosis, escaping confinement, illusions, etc. How do you think your gameplay lived up to a season full of twists? Do you think your gameplay was as captivating as the magic we saw? You three seemed to be very loyal to each other, was there a moment you wanted to betray this alliance or was there never a good time? How does your gameplay differ from each other since you’ve played so closely together. @gardendreams I never felt Attic to be necessarily a threat game wise, so there wasn't any motive for me to betray them & they were loyal albeit not always to be counted on for the votes lol As for Fierce, I felt alligned closest to him simply because of the game dynamics & them being in both alliances I was in. However, as the game came towards the Top 7, the thought of betraying him was posted in my confessional as I've stated above. As for my gameplay, I feel as though the viewers & hosts were much more engaged with it than the players, since I communicated with you all more ambiguously on purpose & I was more of a open book in my confessional. Towards the end, I believe it may have been only me & Aurora spilling the tea. That said, I think I was fairly entertaining. I think this game will definitely be in between me & Fierce. I am not sure how anyone on the jury will vote however.

Was there any point during the game where this backfired and how would you have approached it differently if so? Hey, thanks for recognizing that! Being honest with people can never be a bad thing. If you're honest with people you cannot set false expectations with them. Therefore, me being honest didn't backfire. At least not to my knowledge. If my actions while being honest made someone uncomfortable or they simply didn't like it then I guess it's their problem. Thank you for your question @Seffers 3

Do you think this was smart, considering jury would take note? Or do you feel like being honest about multiple alliances worked in your favor? I don't think having a lot of alliances is a bad thing. It's how you use them that's important. I don't think I ever denied being in an alliance with anyone. I think it worked in my favor because of how I treated everyone. Yes, I had many alliances but I also protected all of them. I warned them about possible threats. I saw other alliances backstabbing each other and voting for each other and I'm glad I wasn't one of them. What you saw is what you got. Thank you for your question @blackoutbaby! You're still the funniest person in the game, I had a blast with you! 3

We have different opinions of what a 'correct vote' is haha I didn't care being part of the majority votes. I felt very close to both of these players at the time of their elimination so it wouldn't make sense for me to vote for them. Not part of any strategic reasoning at all.

Do you think it was snakey to go around and have other alliances - confirmed when you told me my tie with golden hour was “apart of the plan” - without including me? Do you think it was good gameplay or just being a backstabber that led you to not including people who went out of their way to include you in their alliances? And let you know MLD’s plan to turn on someone in the alliance to begin with? While I’m at it - @fiercE After our four person alliance imploded, you and Armani had a cute little side alliance to turn to. Why was I the only one not included? And why did you want to vote me out, when from day one you were in my dms saying we’re good and acting like our alliance was solid?

Were the other tribe members aware of this or and if they weren’t, were you afraid that you would have been that round’s target if so? From @MusicLoverDude: You won multiple items this season. You used both of them which evidently prevented you from being eliminated in two different tribal councils, including one where you weren’t the targeted vote. In particular, what was your strategy behind the whisk away power move at the Top 7? Is there any way you saw yourself using your items differently? @MusicLoverDude I told so many lies this game I don't even remember if I told anyone I don't have a vote that round, I might have told @Aurora or @Armani?about it but I think it was after the votes were read. No I'm not going to be the target on that round because clearly there is a "war" against you and @Golden Hour/ @Seffers duo and with your plot against Armani being out, it was really an easy choice for us to do the flipping. I even managed to plan how the voting work to make sure you're out out. Just to be clear, yes both items I had in the game were for my protection. TRIBAL ESCAPE I used the Tribal Escape because 1. I told @Aurorathat I won the Card challenge which she helped me win it. 2. I told her my prize was the Hidden Immunity Idol and I want to slightly hint to her that I also have another item but I don't want her to know that I do so I made a lie about the Idol I won on the card challenge to be the Tribal Escape. We had a very I mean veeeerry long discussion about that and I said to her that I'll just use it if she don't believe me, so when I used it she apologized that I didn't believe it and still not sure why the host lied to her . I already said it on my confession that I'll use my items just for fun because I know with the alliances I have I am safe. HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL The only time I would've considered to used my hidden Immunity Idol was during the top 6 when @blackoutbaby got voted out, I wanted to help you so bad, if @Aurora was vulnerable that round then I would save you in a heartbeat but she was immune, I thought about using it in exchange of @Armani? being voted out but he has something that you couldn't or didn't have which is to beat Aurora on the challenges. I did not use it on @Alldeezy during top 5 because I want her to trust me, but I guess she's more loyal to her fellow Aussie than me, I told her everything that's going to happen on the top 5 votes including the Hidden Immunity Idol usage to save @EnterTheAttic, at one point Armani said he won't use the idol but I know for sure he'll do it since he'll be on the bottom of the barrel if he didn't do it.
gardendreams Posted December 20, 2023 Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) gngdkangdakgnak I asked as many questions as the hosts omg, but I have more. @fiercE - Hey babes! I'm not surprised you are in the top 3 but I do have some thoughts on your game. I feel like you had an unfair advantage coming into Survivor. It was revealed to me early on in the game that there was a large TABS alliance which included: you, MLD, BOB, Stupidjock and Poki. You also had a long term friendship with Alldeezy which was pivotal during your time in the tribe swap, saving you from being potentially eliminated. You also happened to be with 2 of your friends in Houdini, which set you up for a fairly secure position in the game. I'm bringing all of this up because I feel like you didn't have to try as hard compared to Armani and Attic. Do you think that I am wrong about your game? @Armani? If we don't include Zorbit's round, you and I did not share a tribal council. Which resulted in us not getting very close. Do you regret not being as social as fierce/attic?

Do you think that your social connections made up for your struggle with the challenges? Hey love! I don't shy away from my shortcomings! I have a very self-deprecating sense of humour, so every time I flopped it was another chance for me to poke fun at myself. I remember I did receive votes by @Kyuti and @Devon Robot, but I can't remember if that was pre-merge or during the merge. Either way, my social connections definitely made up for my struggle with challenges. It was my personality and relationships with people that got me to the Final.

I feel like it would be a bit naive to very blatantly expose my 2nd alliance, even to someone I consider a close ally I did tell you a lot though. The 2nd alliance was created during the swap where you were on the other side of the pond where I couldnt communicate anymore & updated to include Aurora(who was on the tribe) after merge, no I don't feel as though I was a snake because of it. That said, I don't personally or logically view you as not to be trusted so yes, perhaps me & Fierce could have discussed it in the very least. 49 minutes ago, gardendreams said: @Armani?

If I didn't win immunity or if the surprise 1 round, 2 tribes were split differently, it definitely would have been in my interest to connect with you more in the game.

But I was also very close with @Armani? too. So I wouldn't avenge MLD because Armani voted for him. Both were my friends. Plus, Armani had not told me he was voting for Ryan, otherwise I would have tried to change his mind. I remember that that specific tribal council took place during night time here in Greece and I was sleeping. When I woke up, I was shocked to see MLD go and I felt very sad and unprotected. It was tough, but I wouldn't turn on Armani for that reason. There were so many other people I was not close to that I could vote for. Thank you for your questions @gardendreams 💚 1

The 2nd alliance was created during the swap where you were on the other side of the pond where I couldnt communicate anymore & updated to include Aurora(who was on the tribe) after merge, no I don't feel as though I was a snake because of it. That said, I don't personally or logically view you as not to be trusted so yes, perhaps me & Fierce could have discussed it in the very least. A bit, Fierce did tell me you were thinking of voting me since we weren't really close. But that didn't happen since we had a surprise double elimination? I also believe I won immunity that round if I'm not mistaken. If I didn't win immunity or if the surprise 1 round, 2 tribes were split differently, it definitely would have been in my interest to connect with you more in the game. Well I’m glad you found people who you could trust more than the person you made an alliance with on day one.
