Can you believe it? Final four. You're one round away from getting to the end. icon_chaos

One immunity challenge left. How necessary is it for you to win the final immunity challenge in order to make it to the end?

Of your other 3 competitors, who's the biggest jury vote threat? Who's the biggest goat?

If there's one thing standing in your way of getting to the end, who or what is it?

Give it to me. Go down all the jury members and tell me who you think they're gonna be voting for to win. Whose votes you think you're getting? Whose votes do you think you will never get?

I REVERSED THE CURSE! OMG I FINALLY MADE IT PAST THE FINAL FIVE AGAIN! I can live happy now <3

As happy as I am that I finally broke my streak of fifth place, I can't help but be upset that Christina is still here. Like it's so disheartening for two out of the three of us to just go into the finals with Christina and be ripped apart since the jury absolutely adores Christina the underdog who has literally been on the wrong side of most votes since the Ali vote and has relied on idols and immunities to get here.

Don't get me wrong, I love an underdog too, but Simone, Ryan, and myself were all on the bottom at some point and we managed to get out of the bottom not by winning challenges/idols but by making connections and leveraging our games. Obviously, it's our fault for not voting her out way back when, but at the same time, it's annoying how the jury outwardly thinks she's playing the best game. Doesn't it say something about someone when all of their allies go home and they seemingly can't get themselves out of the bottom? Probably because they aren't playing as good as people think they are. Congrats to Christina for making herself this big threat, but she put herself in that position after the Ali vote by freaking out on everyone. She put the threat status on herself; no one else did that. Why reward someone who publically fucked up their game when you can vote for someone who made it to the end a lot easier yet still made moves? (aka Simone, Ryan, or myself).

If Christina wins the next immunity challenge, it's pretty much a death wish for the rest of us. She's got Chrissy, Ali, Jonas, and Julie already in the bag. Simone/I might get Cole/Patrick/Ryan and then Roark/Matt are anyone's guess (probably Christina since she didn't betray them).

I don't think I need to tell y'all who the biggest jury threat (Christina) is nor who the biggest goat is (Ryan), but honesty, I personally believe that anyone could still win this game if they play their cards right. It is never over until it is over. Everyone's got a story to tell and it's just a matter of whether or not that story resonates with the jury.

It is not 100% essential for me to win the next challenge to make it to the end, but it is certainly essential for me to win the next challenge if I want to win the game. Unfortunately, Simone and I will both probably be gone for the challenge so wow whoopdy doo Christina you basically won a challenge against yourself. Sorry I'm salty. I really do love and enjoy this game, but just literally having to hand the final immunity to the fan favorite because two of us have real life obligations leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Spradlin Out for possibly the last time icon_weep

Welp just finished the tiebreaker challenge! I actually think I am dead like that had to be the dullest yet most stressful hour of my life. I am pretty sure I didn't mess up (if I did, I corrected it), but by looking at Ryan's total posts, I think this race is a very close one. I didn't check how many posts he had before this, but I'm just hoping he messed up once somewhere in there. If I make it to the final tribal council, I think it will be one of the most competitive councils this game has had. Christina, Simone, and I all have great cases to make to the jury and I honestly could see all three of us getting votes. It would bring a ton of excitement to this game and I could see it being a dramatic and fun final tribal to conclude this otherwise crazy game.

Ugh, I've been in a final tribal council before, but I forgot just how exhausting they are. It's so frustrating and hard to keep your story entirely straight throughout every post because if someone catches one deviation between what you say in separate answers, they're gonna call you out on it and use it against you. I feel like I'm on the firing squad and I'm trying to manipulate my way into them letting me live. Going into this final tribal, I didn't think I had that big of a chance. However, as I answer questions, I'm thinking it might be possible to squeeze out some votes. Honestly, I could see all three of us getting votes and I think this will be a VERY competitive final vote.

Right now, I see the votes like this:

Christina: Chrissy, Ali

Kim: Cole, Matt

Simone: Patrick, Ryan

I think Julie is probably leaning towards Christina and originally I thought she might have Jonas, but now I'm not so sure. I have absolutely no idea who Roark will vote. Chrissy kept saying how her vote was COMPLETELY undecided, but I call bullshit. I think she knew she was gonna vote Christina coming into the tribal no matter what; however, her question was one of my favorite to answer because I think it will help me get other juror's votes if they read it ala Jonas and Cole.

The thing I'm not looking forward to is the live questioning. Like wtf Jeff an hour and a half session of straight questioning, that's death rolled up in a bundle. We're already exhausting ourselves answering these lengthy questions and now we gotta get kicked in the balls for 90 minutes straight? Pure torture lol and I love it. Honestly, if I don't win, I'm actually having a good time right now so I'll end this game happy and excited for whoever wins.

I would just like to thank Jeff and all the hosts for putting this game together. Y'all are amazing and this is one of the best ORGs I've ever played in so thank you for that (granted I haven't played in a whole ton of ORGS).

My current resume is:

Survivor Twisted: India - Brett Clouser, 1st Boot aka 26th Place
(granted I really had no idea what an ORG was and I didn't understand anything lol)

39 Days in Mongolia - Brett Clouser, Winner
(this game was actually very similar to Stranded in the sense that I was in the finals with a challenge beast who was clearly the frontrunner going into the final tribal, but then we tied with 4 votes each and the third place person voted for me)

Survivor FA: Indonesia - Brett Clouser, 5th Place
(this game took a year to play it was insane - it then took another entire year for the host to write all the episodes and release them, needless to say a long journey)

Survivor Proboards: Ethiopia - Erinn Lobdell, 5th Place
(this one I felt was where I finally realized that my social game was my greatest strength - I utilized it and I would have won this hands down no doubt about it, but I was extremely stupid and gave my idol away at Final 5 and was blindsided by my own alliance)

Survivor: The Benelux States - Julia Sokolowski, 5th Place
(this game I had confidence. I went out balls blazing and I blindsided everyone. I backstabbed my two closest allies and gave zero shits about anyone. in hindsight, not the best strategic choices were made, but I certainly made the all-stars list lol)

I'm hoping to add another W to my list since I honestly believe I finally found the perfect niche of my social, strategic, and physical games. It would be a great conclusion to my otherwise noteworthy resume.

Well it's finally over <3 That had to have been one of the most insane final tribals I've ever seen. Straight flames and spitting fire all over.

At the end of the day, I played an amazing game and I'm glad I had the opportunity to be here (thanks for taking a chance mypoody even though you thought I was gonna be a gamebot).

After everything that has happened, I think Christina is gonna win it. She has Chrissy, Ali, Roark, and Matt locked up and only needs one more to take it (probably Julie). I wanna say I have Ryan, Patrick, Cole, and possibly Jonas, but they're more likely to split their votes between Simone and I. Overall, I love everyone and I can't wait to end this journey on a high note!

For the very last time in this game:

Also, in case of a tie at FTC between Simone and Christina, I am voting for Christina to be the sole survivor of this game. I called on Day 1 that she was a threat to be messing with and somehow she's still here at the end with me. If I don't deserve it, then she does.
