Board Thread:Survivor: Isla Del Sol (Season 10)/@comment-5098907-20150725050503



Hey guys! Before I start I wanna thank the hosts, you three, and the rest of the players for making this season as much fun as it was. From Day 1 it has been nonstop excitement and even though I feel like I've lost a few years of my life due to all the stress, this has literally been my favorite season to play in. Yay!

Grace, Trace, Zane. I'm so proud and happy that the three of you made it to the end. It bums me out that I wasn't able to join you especially since I feel like I had to haul ass to make it as far as I did, but nevertheless I'm glad that for once I won't have to drag anybody in my Jury speech! However, because of the fact that you're all baes, I can honestly say that I have not made up my mind on who to vote for. I had completely different experiences with all three of you, so earning my vote is doing to depend on how you answer my questions as well as the questions of my fellow Jury members.



GRACE

Let me start with Satan's spawn herself. Grace, we only started talking after we merged, but you surely secured yourself a spot in my "Can't Let Reach FTC" list after you obliterated everyone in that Winterbells challenge. But after talking for a while I immediately fell in love with you and you became one of my best allies in this game. It's rare for me to trust and become friends with someone so quickly, especially in a game like this, but it looks like you won me over.



Anyways, after Will's unexpected exit all I had left was the trifecta of me, you, and Trace. Everyone else gave me a reason not to trust them. But let me be real for a second. As much as I loved you, I knew I couldn't bring you to the end. In my mind I thought everyone loved you as well and even the Brantsteele IDS simulation I did predicted your win. It knew. But obviously things didn't pan out that way as you're sitting there and I'm sitting here.



So Grace, here are the questions I would like you to answer! Please be honest with your responses.

1. Was there a point during our time together where you were dishonest with me?

'''2. Was I correct in identifying you as my biggest threat in the game? Or do you think I should have focused my attention elsewhere?'''

3. Rank all 10 other members of the merged tribe by how much of a bond you had with them (1 being the person you bonded with the most) and tell me whether or not you had a hand in their elimination.

Thanks!

TRACE

Oh my God, it's Trace! When we got swapped to nuCobo I knew we would become great friends and allies. We, along with Will, dominated that tribe until the merge came and together we made it to the F5 where we then made that F2 deal. Things didn't go so well for me but I'm happy you managed to make it that far. But let's be honest here.



There was a point in this game when I got so frustrated with you. You could probably tell I was tiffed but I tried to keep calm in front of you. Let's just say that I gave quite the expletive-filled confessional and now one of the episode titles is directed at you. Oops. But yeah, if you don't know what I'm referring to, it was when we couldn't agree on who to keep between Blake and Casey. At that point I had just voted out one of my closest allies in Lucky and I kinda expected you to return the favor by booting Casey but you just wouldn't budge. It made me feel for just a moment that I should have stuck with my Cobo peeps instead of you guys. Things changed and I eventually just shrugged it off, but I just wanted to let you know about it before you read it when the confessionals came out.



I would like you to answer these questions.

1. Was that F2 deal we made sincere or did you have similar deals with other players?

'''2. How did you have to alter your strategy after Will got voted out? '''

3. How bad did you going on a cruise hurt your game, if at all, and do you think the Jury should overlook it when making their decision?

Thanks!

ZANE

And finally we have Zane! Since Day 1 we have had our ups and downs and I'm so glad that we were able to end our journey on an up. When we were together on Cobo, I considered you by closest ally and even when we got separated I tried to keep in contact with you. We shared notes and bitched about Tom, and I even let you know what was happening in my tribe. IDK what exactly was said to you that got you to vote against me at that first merged tribal but I was completely loyal to you up until then. Like Trace, I too had some foul words to say about you in a confessional afterwards.



But luckily we got passed that as well, until the Casey vote lol But the fact that we were constantly at odds showed me that you weren't willing to commit to just one person's plans. You told me that you would do what you had to to make final tribal, and you did just that. So bravo!



So here's what I want to ask you.

1. If things went your way each tribal, who would have your desired F3 consisted of?

2. What was your biggest obstacle in this game?

3. Rank your top 5 best allies in this game and if they're not sitting in the F3 with you, tell me why you couldn't/didn't take them there.

Thanks!

So, yeah. If I could split my vote into three pieces and give each of you a vote I would, but I unfortunately can only vote for one of you. So please show me that you played a game that's as crazy and exciting as this season was!



And if you all would be so nice to answer a few more bonus questions, that would be bonks. ♥

4. If you had to make the DVD cover for this season, which 5 other players would you pick to be on it (assuming that you won and had a guaranteed spot)?

5. Was I in any of your plans to make it to the end and were you secretly glad I got voted out when I did?

Thanks guys for making this a spectacular season! I'm really glad I got to meet all three of you I hope we can stay in contact after this is over. Fight hard and good luck in answering all our questions!

And if it feels like my enthusiasm dropped as you read this, it's probably cause it's taken me like 5 hours to write this omfg. But GL <3
