Well yeah because I was the last vote and one would assume that one would put themselves at the top of their own list for self-preservation's sake

You're not going to make reference to mine in reverse?

But I wouldn't have actually cared if Porunga had kept the vote on me. I was out hiking in the blue mountains at the time of the vote, my head had long gone out of the game.

I meant it when I said you would have been a deserving winner of this game, Cheery. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. :(

I wasn't lying when I responded that I hadn't been 15 minutes before you asked.

I think if I hadn't taken my head out of the game completely in the final days, I could have actually done something.

Someone noted that my FTC game was improving as it progressed somewhere - that was simply because I was at home and had then had a good nights sleep in my own bed. Most of my first answers were done straight after I got home, and after a long drive/sitting in the car, it probably wasn't the best decision to attempt them going well past midnight.
Maybe I should have made DeathNote push it out another day, but I felt my schedule was infringing enough already.

I'll be back next time I look like I've dropping off the active players list to fail a game. - I still don't see how my ELO can have grown that much though. If I can actually just work out my own gameplan :P

Yeah, if you'd owned your game more during FTC, you probably would have won :/

What I really learned from this game is that while a lot of skill is required to go far, it's a lot of luck in terms of what challenges come up or who you get put on tribes with. I dare even say the game is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill

Dank memeing broseph.

And when the challenges that come up all have massive luck components, it makes the luck factor even more.

I'm the only person who liked telling xof to Shut Up and winning aren't I? :good:
It was an early merge immunity challenge so in the long run it wasn't that terribly important. I don't think it was a bad design at all and I would have said that regardless of who won. I much preferred it to the challenges that took days to complete and I figured all along it would give immunity at some point which is why I was stalking it so much.

I also really liked Battleship because it punished lurking and took a lot of coordination, but didn't punish people for their timezones. Same with the VPL challenge although that was more timezone insensitive. The Cooler challenge would have been great if the other tribe could also have done it, which is a problem with live challenges that take more then an hour.

I was also forced to rewrite my starting blurb because apparently falling asleep on calls is too identifying. <.<

The Tron challenge was actually a lot of fun except for the part where I was up till like 5am doing the challenge for SOMEONE ELSE.

You're lucky I lost concentration because I was worried about missing Survivor AU since it was starting then.
That's totally my excuse for failing on a challenge that was a perfect fit my timezone

There was no guaranteed way of winning that challenge. You basically had to take risks and try to read where other people would go.

My reads in the last 5 or so rounds were nearly perfect >.>
