Hey, it's a good sign for MS when a newbie wins.

Also, that was a fun game and I don't blame anybody for how it went down. I'm rather okay with how I did.

That awkward moment when you realize two people with strangely similar names get voted out right next to each other.

No, I didn't play in this, but I just wanted to point that out.

Just for the record, I will forever and for always use this game as an example of "why General Discussion in Survivor is a bad idea." Because it is.

Hey kdowns, nobody likes you. Granted, I'm not on this list either, but meh, I'm not that good anyways. But yeah, kdowns, go jump in a lava pool with Haldir.

Modkilled people don't get to be on the list, which means that Pizza is double banned.


Honestly, I just didn't think about it at the time, but yeah, your name can go in the list as well.

That hurts even as a joke. Granted, my ELO is better than kdowns, so IRDC.

I played my worst game ever, on account of wanting to do something weird, and just not ever letting go of it until it was too late.

Thanks everyone for voting for me. I'm so happy to win, and it was a lot of fun to play with/against you all. This was a great game, and Nich/Ani/Shii/TS did a great job.

Also, Radagast played a great game as well. If he had won, I would have been sad, but he would have definitely deserved it. And Gothmog getting to the F3 in his first game is pretty impressive.

Eh, Betch isn't that bad. I like meeting new people, and Betch is new to me.

I don't understand how your ELO is higher though.

S:DI You were Modkilled and I got third
S:SI We both were Modkilled
S:AS My Placing was Higher
S:ME You placed Higher.

GamePizzadudes7kdowns
Total Drama: World Tour14-
Destiny Islands123
Galapagos910
Seafoam1920
All Stars83
Middle Earth1017


Here's what happens:
When a provisional score is calculated (read: first game), it is usually bloated and brought down in the next game (see: my change from Seafoam to now). Your score is bloated after S:DI, while Pizza is sitting at a below average score. When Pizza beats you in Galapagos, the numbers look at that and say "wow, you beat a good player, have a nice bump!" and take yours down a few pegs. When Pizza's numbers beat you in 2 of the next three games, he claws his way above you. It also helps that Pizza's mediocre score beat very good scores (Cybele, myself, yours) in S:ME.

PEDIT: I love you, but don't argue your own case.

Modkill =/= Last place
Mods can use their own discretion as to the placement.

In S:DI, I was awarded 12th place (I believe that was my place had I been voted out at that time and not modkilled)
In S:SI, I was awarded 19th place as you took 20th b/c you were modkilled first.
