Poque posted:Players please post reactions not only to viewer comments but to your fellow castaways' confessionals. I always wanna hear more more more! Man. I think I'm down for the vista but I'm really really wary to touch the confessionals. This whole shebang took a huge toll on my psyche, and I don't know how I pulled that out, but I have the distinct impression that a lot of those confessionals will be downright DEVASTATING. Like, if I were ever on real Survivor, I doubt I'd watch. I'd just watch SA and twitter live-watch and try to infer what was going on through that and Rob C recaps.

I would have voted for Ice after that final tribal as well. I thought you did a really good job of explaining your motives and highlighting your presence in the game. Fast Luck, you really oversold yourself when you didn't need to. A lot of your answers were simply unnecessary and somewhat condescending.

Maybe give it a day and then check back. If you approach it from a healthy attitude of really seeing how you come across, it can be cathartic. That said, I'm really bad at keeping up with confessionals and legitimately don't remember how other people reacted to you, heh.

King Burgundy posted:FWIW, other than your closing statement, I thought you had the best final tribal performance. That opening song was epic. Of course, worst closing statement for me was Prop, but that is mostly because I hate bitter jurors. I actually wouldn't have been bitter. I would have been a bit charmed that I was threatening enough to make it to the end and get booted last minute. Due to my positioning, I got good reads on what was happening in the game. I do not lack balls, so I wanted to just hit them with the worst and see how they responded. As I said before, I was going in with an open vote. I just don't think you should get to the end, and not be prepared to defend the very worst of what you did.

You did great and you kept the end game interesting for the viewers. We were all rooting for you and I jumped up and down when I saw you win those immunities. In the end it's just a fun internet game and you did a great job.

I got really angry on Fast Luck's behalf at calling his immunity streak luck, among other things. Last, but not least by far, in our talks you always wanted to take strong players to the end, because goats were "taking up" spots at this final tribal council that other, stronger players more "deserved." If there's a better strategy to lose for sure, I cannot tell you what it is. lol those were all lies, i couldnt let you in on my real reasons because i didnt want you to second guess my votes and wanted you to think i was inept. but i told cena weeks ahead of time the real reasons i wanted to pit you and ice against each other. i dont care if winson gets 0 votes, i have to beat a durf and keeping you + ice seemed better than bringing winsonas far as immunity wins, it wasn't fast internet connections, it was smart play, like refreshing from the reply page instead of the thread, like being the best at doing a crossword, etc. You sunk your strategic game when you chose to vote YPM out over Byers. and of course, i didn't want to keep Byers over YPM! that was bowmore being intractible. i made extensive arguments, at one point i even said, fine, let's ally with prop and byers the SECOND vote, but let's vote out winson the first vote. couldn't get him to go with it. i assume you know im not that dumb :P i know that post was partly a jury argument but i gotta give my response. how much of my response did you already know? is any of that news? i know you already know i didnt want to ally you guys in the shuffle cuz i told you about that hehe how would these answers have worked for you if you were a juror?

It's not really a good excuse, but I knew it was kinda lovely and didn't think I had the time to change it. Also reading the vista is fun even though a bunch of you hated me

I guess for constructive criticism FL, I think you didn't own enough that your social game wasn't really there. Like, convincing an ally to do what you want them to do is part of a social game. So saying "my ally did what he wanted I couldn't do anything about it, that has nothing to do with my social game" isn't really true. Being able to influence your allies actions to your benefit is really what a social game is all about.

Sorry Asiina, I literally don't think there was anything more I could have done for winson. I said every single thing I could possibly have said to earn his trust. I wrote him pining letters, I explained why I would want to ally him, I told him why I would definitely give him my idol, I did everything anyone could ever imagine. If there was ANYTHING i failed to do in my efforts to convince him he was my top ally, let me know. And if my social game wasn't there, why did I outlast Maltose? Why did bowmore and Chili make me offers? Why did Byers and Prop want to keep me?

Fast Luck posted:Yeah, I had a whole response to that post that I couldn't put up because she made her closing argument after me. I did IM her though: God, you're loving adorable! I hope you were slightly joking earlier, because in that question, I tried to make it clear: we're buddies. I like you. As a dude. For 1... Real reasons would have served you much better. I would have respected them and, gently caress, Winson would have been gone regardless and you'd have robbed me of some ammo. Also, you lsot to me. Who knows how Winson would have done. Anyway, with that line of "reasoning," you looked like a tool, in a very similar way as I'd looked like a tool weeks prior. You just had the poor sense to do it in recent memory. 2... I think...somebody else...said it better, but losing control over your alliance is absolutely the trademark of a horrible social game. You should have been able to talk bowmore out of that poo poo. Aligning with a Mafia player? Come. ON.

Like I said, I think you played a great game. And you didn't just get to the end via the immunity run, although I think that's a big part of that and as a former challenge monster myself, you should totally own it. As I said in the vista, I think you just didn't do the best job of explaining why the moves you made and the things you did mean you should win. I think by leaving those connections unsaid that's where to others it ends up coming off as possibly entitled or just unclear why you are bringing stuff up. But of course I'm talking out of my rear end since I wasn't on the jury, so feel free to disregard everything I've said.

I do wonder if players had seen my confessionals, if they maybe would have respected me more. But that's why I sold myself so hard, which was apparently a turn-off. Ah well. I don't want to throw bowmore under the bus. He was a friend and he voted for me. Bowmore and Dhaes are my best friends outa this besides Prop and Skinty. I do think Bowmore would back me up though when I say I did every single thing possible to change his mind. That's not a lie or bsing or whatever.
