Noooo Alec! So close!!! Oh well, bold move hanging on to the idol. You played well.

How did you enjoy the game if at all? Would you play again? What would you do differently? Where do you think you went wrong in the game? Highs? Lows?

PLEASE stick around and join us in Ponderosa (below tribal council) where we can bash all the stupid shit the players still in the game do :P

Thanks, Jeff. I really should've been more sketched out when Seb wouldn't be specific on who he trusted , it's the final 7 for crying out loud. Hopefully, it's an experience to learn from, haha!

I absolutely loved it, man, and want to take the opprotunity to thank you and all the mods (yes, even you, Caryn <3) for taking so much of your personal time to do this. I'd play again in a heartbeat, I can't stress enough how fun this was. I know it got stressful for everyone at times but I think I speak for everyone when I say we really, truly appreciate this.

What would I do differently? : Feel more comfortable with my idol. That shit could've been huge, like I'm already wallowing in the lost potential there haha. I just truly should've hit that submit button tonight when eyeing down the seconds ticking away to 11:30...instead I let it slip. You live and you learn, and I've learned that sometimes, you can only trust yourself (and Gabby lmao like honestly love her, she voted chels tn if I'm reading the votes right, hers seems like the other Chelsea).

Went wrong not keeping tighter lipped with Don today. The guy was tight with Chelsea from the start but I trusted him to vote her...yeah dumb one on my part. Hope Don makes FTC so he can get no votes oof

My highs were somehow surviving to this point after being the only one to vote for Robb alongside Mike. I really thought I was done the next night but I think I managed to weasel further than it seemed I would have!

Lows, honestly probably Clay quitting. Just knowing that the votes could've been there for Robb that night while I had immunity sucks, but I'm not gonna sit here and complain about it, that's the game.

But uh, can you tell me if we had the votes for Robb that night after FTC cause I wanna know so bad LMAO I know it could impact my FTC vote so no worries about it till after but would love to know after!

[Alec]

and you know it, I'm gonna stick around for sure!

Cool, no worries! I don't have any issue chatting publically would just PM Mike if we were allowed

Still sorta just sitting here reflecting and dude...

it must be fucking tough taking all these social politics and then being on a legitimate desert island, with literally just a bit of rice and dealing with hunger, comfort, etc on top of the INSANELY COMPLEX social political side of things. Really think this experience is gonna make me look at the game with a more human eye, a deeper understanding of why it's so easy for us at home to say "oh you dumb bitch, they were clearly against you, play the idol!" but as a player, it can be insanely difficult to look past the facade people put on and be able to tell what they're really going to do next.

[Alec]

Basically, thanks for making this experience 10x as educational as I expected. I'm really blown away by just how much I was able to take away from what is, in simple terms, a bunch of crazy (lovely) folks pretending to be people they aren't on a website on a forum based on a popular TV show. It's truly fantastic, the community you have here, and I'm honoured to have been a part of this season. Hope things pick up in the final 6 and that this goes down as an overall not bad season of Stranded, because for me, it was truly one of the most unique experiences I've had so far in my life :)

[Alec]

Side note: getting to the end of the ongoing game discussion thread and seeing that I wasn't roasted too hard is nice HAHA

You are such an angel.

When I put Davie down last night, it just felt a bit wrong tbh. I was more blown back by the guts Seb showed in FTC than anything and after continuing to put pressure on him, he didnt crack. I give him props for that, I admire that the guy really stood by his actions even when I acted like I wasnt considering him anymore.
