Board Thread:Survivor: Socotra (Season 15)/@comment-31248167-20160225114307

In the words of legendary television princess icon and HBIC Tiffany "New York" Pollard; "my ass been on pause, but I’m about to press play in a motha fucking millisecond.”

In other words, I've been waiting for this moment.

=🎵 =
 * queue the music*

I'm screaming in your eardrums, I'm snatching your weaves off, trying to help y'all, so y'all need to.. Hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband 'cause I'm comin' for everybody out there. =🎵 =

To the jury, this is not 703's Best Friend Race. This is Survivor. You know what you signed up for.

You are here on the jury because Nam and Yuki outwitted, outplayed and outlasted you. They anticipated your moves and counteracted them. Maybe you don't like them, I understand why, but it's undeniable that they played great strategic games this season.

It's not cute to be butthurt over something you can't change, so go to the hardware store, buy some supplies, build a bridge, and get the fuck over it. Play differently next time and laugh about what has happened. I sure will.

To everyone, please try not to take this game personally, as it is a game at the end of the day. I know it's hard but everything said is in the heat of the moment. We're all stressed and trying to survive and we say things we don't mean in order to defend ourselves.

Maybe instead of hammering on at people about "lying", realise that you also lied, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPrc7iv5bKI, we all did. Don't lie to yourselves. Don't act like a saint when you've sinned as much as anyone else. You have nothing to hide now.

You are all nice people outside of this game, I'm sure, and I enjoyed getting to know a lot of you, but please do not pretend you were nice 100% of the time to everyone during this game. Bitchy comments here and there add up. I was a bitch at times and I feel awful for it. I hope you at least think about your behaviour.

The fighting won't stop until we can accept our mistakes and flaws, and love each other as people away from the game.

It's time to step back from the chaos and think about each vote and who determined your fate in this game, directly or indirectly.

To the finalists:

You're there, we're not, and that says eeeeverything. I'm really proud of what you've achieved. _____________

NAM, it's impressive that you made it this far. You kinda took my place after I was gone so I have to give you props honestly. Some people will hate on you a lot for the things you've said and call you a goat but that aside, you were the determining factor in the last 4 votes, the swing vote. You chose to go the way you did and it has landed you a spot in the final, so I don't think it was a mistake. I know from personal experience how hard it is when you have to vote players you wanted to work with out, and then deal with the backlash.

Just remember that they are upset with what you've said, and wanted to make the moves you already did. For respecting your game I might get a lot of hate. I don't care. You said some things that weren't nice, but so did those you were fighting with. Both parties should've been the bigger person in the situation. My question is; how do you feel about your gameplay this season and the good and bad relationships that have formed from it? I also want to know how you feel mentally at the end of this game. What are you feeling right now?

YUKI, giiirl, you are a hustler. I really like how you've played this game. You weren't afraid of anything or anyone. Fearless players are the best. I can't say I was the same so I salute you. You worked your ass off for everything in this game. From the beginning to the end. You started off at the bottom and worked your way up. It should be noted that you attended and survived 14 out of 15 of the tribals this season (excluding Ivy's).

You had some pretty strong instincts in this game and you blindsided people in your own alliances but managed to reassemble your allies. I heard you aligned with pretty much everyone and you sorta got away with it in a way. You even used your alliance with Nam to the point where he was pretty much the Woo to your Tony. I mean, you're here against a LOT of odds. You were a threat to win since winning immunity so much and playing your double vote. I'm surprised and impressed that you're still here and it shows how strong your social bonds are.

You had a few incidents of fighting with people on the jury, where they said some nasty things too. I've said my piece addressing this above but I think it won't matter as you are the one asking for their votes now. I want to ask the question on everyone's lips. Who would you have taken to the final tribal if you won immunity and why? And I also want to know how you're feeling mentally at the end of this game.

_____________

However, despite everything positive I have said about your games..

Finding out about your cross-tribal alliance from the beginning of the game makes me feel very uneasy about voting for either of you. It is what it is and I can get over it, but it just feels like this kind of unfair advantage over the rest of us, especially newcomers to the community like myself.

And on top of that, Bryce and Lex are indeed very nice people, so I don't think what you did was called for. I'm not saying mean people deserve to be treated badly though. No one does. They were on the bottom so of course they were going to be mad. It wasn't smart to go off on them like that and fuel the fire. I think it's especially moronic of you to cause/be involved in fights at final 5 and beyond.

I love a good strategic game, but think of it like this:

You basically took a dump on most of these jurors, and you're strategically wiping your assholes with toilet paper as to not get that stinging feeling of leftover poop afterwards, so you can advance with your day and go to work for your paycheck (a.k.a. the million dollars).

While the poor jurors on the other hand can't go to work because they smell like your secretion and they have to vote for one of you to get a payrise.

Think about that.

Finally, to everyone, in the words of a wise man named Enrique Iglesias, "I don't wanna fight, I'm tired of being sorry". I hope we can be friends after this. I've kept it real, I have no reason to lie so when I say I do genuinely like you all, I really mean it.

The game is over, so let's party until we get to Lindsay Lohan level.

Oh and congratulations to whoever wins, thank you hosts for letting me be a part of this messy ass but lovely season as my very first, you're all amazing. :') <3
