Hey Nathan, so I hope that I will be able to do your task to your liking, I did talk to everyone on the jury, if the facts are personal or important enough, that’s up to you, but in the end I’ll tell you what I learned from them. I don’t form bonds in the same way as maybe you would feel is personal, so if it seems a little off, that’s probably why. I’ll still do my best.

Stephane: I learned about Stephane that he has a really great taste in music, you may see that as something small and insignificant, random thing about someone’s life, but that was like the conversation that I remember most with him. We just talked about music, and it was awesome, and I’m pretty sure that was how I actually bonded with Stephane before I went all crazy at the merge. And I don’t know if you’ll count this as me knowing him personally or if it’s too game related, but his mind is like always moving, he’s always thinking like ten steps ahead of everything. We didn’t talk about much personal, deep stuff, but I talked a lot to him. It wasn’t that sort of deep personal relationship that we had, but it was a friendship, at least for a large majority of this game.

Andy: Admittedly, Andy is one of those ones that I didn’t talk to very much, but still we did talk, and we did get along for a short while even. One of the things I remember about Andy is he hangs out with strong females, and I remember that because I took him calling me “queen bee” as like him throwing shade because I’ve only ever heard that as a shady comment, but it wasn’t. And then the second thing is just his personality, or at least how I perceived him. He’s really chill, and really easy to talk to. The few times we did talk, it was easy to get along with him. He had a calm personality, and we could talk about random stuff like what sort of bars there were in Vancouver, or the current season of survivor.

Alex: For me Alex is actually one of the easier ones because in like one of our first conversations we actually did discuss life and what we were doing. What makes Alex tick is helping people, he’s a good guy. He wants to become a school councillor. That’s what we talked about like in one of our first conversations, and I totally respect it from him.

Julian: Julian is a complete sweetheart. We’ve been friends since the start and I’ve loved talking to him. This is the first org he’s ever played on, which is great because I think he played fantastically. But away from game stuff, he was just the person that I could go to and talk about anything, he’s a great listener in that way. good at conversations. But really, what I learned about him is that he’s strong, he’s all chill, and sweet, but he told me himself, if you mess with him he won’t be so chill and sweet. He’s a sweet guy who doesn’t take shit, I respect that. We had a lot of conversations about survivor, general stuff, life, so it’s hard to pinpoint exact things to say about him, but he’s a great guy, if you want more specifics just say so.

Kaffe: Kaffe I knew a bit before this season, so we went into it with somewhat of a relationship beforehand. What I knew about Kaffe before this season is he is endlessly patient. I mean he put up with me being like the worst person in his TAR org history most likely. But anyway, onto this game, he’s like a duck, water just rolls off his back. (I know this isn’t an animal question but couldn’t resist) But really, he’s just forgiving, and nice, and that’s his way. But also, Kaffe is smart, I mean he crushed the puzzle challenge, and just generally. I talked a lot of game with Kaffe, and when we weren’t talking game it was a lot of amazing race org. That was just how our friendship was.

Jake: Jake is a hard worker, I mean seriously. One of the things I remember talking about with him clearly is how he was working for like 28 days straight I think? Might be off by a few, but he worked that hard. And that was while putting his heart into this game too, so he was killing it on all fronts. Then the other thing he would tell me about was waiting for his tram to get to work (or maybe back) but I remember he brought that up a few times.

Nathan: And last but not least, you. We talked kind of sporadically, never really had big long expansive conversations, but we did talk. You’re a senior in high school, which I wish you the best in because the final year is always hard, and takes a lot of work. On a personal level, you’re a nice, funny guy. One of the few in this game that didn’t feel awkward sending smiley faces to, which sounds really weird but in my head it makes sense. You weren’t just nice and friendly to me, but I saw you were friendly to everyone in the tribe chat as well, a trait that I respect and wish I could have almost. But you’re also a fighter, you showed me last round how hard you were willing to fight to stay.

I don’t know if this answer will satisfy you, or if you’ll just think I was even less social than I was, idk. But all I know is that I don’t form bonds the same as some people, I didn’t get deep and intimate with a lot of people because that’s just hard for me to do. I know the little things, and I pick up on personalities in general. So if this isn’t enough, sorry you couldn’t get what you wanted, but I hope that this helps your decision in any way.
