This is my first Survivor season, and I binged through all the aired episodes so far this season, and man, I was hoping every season was this great. :ese:

Reading through this thread tells me that I just happened to have stumbled upon a great season though, so I may just check out the few seasons everyone talks about here as some binge material.

Binge through Tocantins, you don't need any prior knowledge to enjoy it.

Someone roped me into playing Awful Survivor "this season". I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, and im actually getting scared as crap :lol: since it starts tomorrow. It's probably the closest I'll ever get to actual survivor. Hahaha! I can't talk with people afterwards about the game, but I think it's ok if I say that I'm in it, particularly since this is just about the most relevant thread to announce it.

My first and only season was a debacle. One thing about these games is that there is a pool of players that play, so odds are the person you make an alliance with will probably have an alliance with at least one other player that they know. Also show up to the challenges because if you don't you are an easy target.

Tocantins is so good :kimchi: My personal favorite is Cook Islands because everyone was terrified it would end up in a race war, but it ended up being one of the best underdog-rooting seasons. I don't think a single episode disappointed me. I think that one's a good intro to the "weird idea to split up tribes" type of seasons. Especially since they drop it early.

Yay lots of talk about Awful Survivor! This season just started today and you can watch the game in the thread here:

And you can PM me for a link to the Viewer's Vista where we talk about what's happening in the game and follow players' confessionals and stuff. It's actually fun to watch if you're a Survivor fan!

I liked Cook Islands because the premise lead it to being the most diverse cast Survivor's ever had, and probably ever will have. But it had a lot of boring people on it.
It was really surprising to me watching it knowing one of its players would return and win, because I didn't think much of their gameplay.
