Sim Survivor 2.1! Finale on Saturday 5/9!

[T-Bone]

"Welcome to Sim Survivor! I'm your host T-Probst! Okay? Let's get started!"

Here's how it works

20 MafiaScum Survivors will be isolated on an island inside a spreadsheet on my computer.
Each person will build a bot and allocate stat points to seven different stats that will affect camp life, morale, choices, and challenges.
Relationships, alliances, and reward winners will be randomly generated.
Filling out the form below is all you have to do to play! Please post your form as a reply to this thread, and once you post it, please don't edit your post. If you want to make a change to your bot later in the sign-ups, but before the game begins, quote your original and make your changes in a new post.

DA FORME

Name: (just your forum identity please, I'll use it anyway regardless of what you put here)
Pronoun(s):

You have 17 skill points to allocate between 7 skills. Each skill must have a minimum of one point and no skill can have more than 5. .You must use all 17 points (can't believe I have to say this).

Nuts and Bolts

More details on how certain things work

- There are seven skills, general, physical, endurance, will, mental, social, and strategy.
-

General

is a minor challenge and major camp life skill. Players with high general skills can do shit around camp and do miscellaneous challenge things such as throw a ball or swing an axe.
-

Physical

is a major challenge and minor camp life skill. Players high in physical will have the ability to be useful around camp. Challenges that involve lifting or physical shows of force will benefit from this skill.
-

Endurance

is a major challenge skill. Players high in endurance can go longer in challenges that rely on it but also be able to act more frequently in other physical style challenges.
-

Will

is a minor challenge, minor social, and moral skill. Players with high Will will be able to perform in challenges even when suffering hardships (such as low morale or losing a lot). It also helps in challenges that require deep focus.
-

Mental

is a major challenge skill and minor choices skill. Players high in mental will be good at puzzles, and make better decisions when it comes to voting.
-

Social

is a major camp life and major choices skill. Players with a high social skill will make good decisions regarding alliances and voting, and will be able to make themselves useful around camp even if they have other limitations.
-

Strategy

is a challenge and choices skill. Players high in this skill will be able to navigate some challenges effectively. They will also do well in alliances and might be more aware of proper idol play.

There are also two static statistics that are controlled by the events in the game; threat and morale.

-

Threat

is the stat that governs how likely the rest of the tribe is to vote you out. The higher your threat the more likely you will receive votes at tribal council. Threat can be gained by performing well in challenges, having a stat that is high (4 or 5), having a stat that is useless (1 or sometimes 2), voting against players, and generating negative results on the camp life or tribal council rolls. Threat can go down by generating positive results or voting out enemies. This stat starts at 1 for everyone and cannot go below 0. As the game progresses threat is easier to generate and more difficult to lose.
-

Morale

is a simple positive, neutral, or negative stat. Challenge wins will help morale, repeatedly losing will tank it. Getting votes at tribal council will tank the morale of low will characters or improve the morale of high will characters.

Camp Life

Camp life is randomly generated events between castaways. A roll is made for each castaway detailing whether they have a positive, or a negative, or no result, and if they have a result a roll is made to see with whom that is.
Alliances are also formed this way, alliances will be generated with players each person likes with some exceptions.
One-sided relationships (both positive and negative) are possible.
Immunity Idol hunts will also be randomly generated on a weighted roll, with General, Strategy, and Threat ratings contributing to success. There will also be a token mechanic introduce to bring some stability to idol hunting and finding.

Challenges

Reward challenges will be static and just randomly generated based on a single skill; whichever team/player has the highest wins.
One of the winners will randomly find a clue to the hidden immunity idol.
Immunity challenges will have a description, and two or more skills will be the basis for the challenge. Sometimes the highest skill total wins, sometimes there is a knockout format, sometimes there is a race format, each weighted differently.

Tribal Council

There will be limited dice rolls that can have one final positive or negative effects on threat levels.
Players will vote for the player with the highest threat level to them.
Threat level is altered on an individual basis based on relationships and alliances, and tiebreakers will be resolved in the same way.

Things Bone Has Learned

- I've done this game several times (right here!) so I've learned some things. A lot of people's instincts after reading the nuts and bolts is to evenly distribute their bot's skills. Winning bots have had uneven distribution of skills, and even distributions of skills. This is a simulation, stuff is random, and you can't control it. Best to distribute your skills in a fun way. Perhaps in the way you think you'd fair in real life? Or some other crazy thing. Or do it evenly across the board. Whatever.
- All the skills are important. I mean it.
- The rules for good and solid idol play basically doesn't exist. I have come up with a new formula this season, but I haven't tested it. We'll see how it goes. Sometimes players will do good things with idols. Sometimes they won't. Again, whatever.
- I will write flavor based on how I can interpret the numbers. Sometimes I will write nonsensical things because random roles happen. You just have to go with it. Your character may do things that you wouldn't. It's a bot, you'll have to live with it. Otherwise I could post strings of dice rolls but that probably wouldn't be fun for anyone.
- I won't have a consistent updating schedule. Episodes take me about an hour to write, so my free time dictates how often an episode comes out. I'm planning for 1 to 2 episodes a week.
- I'll also provide commentary in this thread and maybe on Discord through out the game. No reason for me to have a ton of Mod secrets (although I won't divulge exact alliance/threat values). I also don't have plans to share my sim at this point.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: This tribe did not start off well, having trouble with camp life stats, and before the immunity challenge there was a clear target, CaptMeme. Overall the tribe had a poor beginning with a ton of negative interactions. Super bad luck for xofelf since she has a slightly higher chance for good ones, it just didn't work out. CaptMeme recovered well after the challenge though and fell off the radar. Aronis and Xofelf came in with the same threat levels. Aronis did poorly in the challenge and had bad interactions. Unfortunately for Xofelf, she had three enemies to Aronis' two, and her enemies had allies whom deferred to her enemies. Ircher, Felissan, and CaptMeme dissented on Aronis because they don't like him.

"Sorry man, you don't even know it, but you're gone." - Klick

With 5 votes that's enough, bring me your torch. The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: This was an interesting one, as four people entered into tribal council in danger of votes. IPS and Pine had bad tribal council performances and that put them in the top tier. IPS knew he was in danger going in, and he was playing the idol tonight no matter what. Pine had a poor performance at tribal, didn't have a great episode, and secretly Klick really hated him and Pine never knew (one-sided relationships!). Cephrir and Menalque have poor relationships with IPS and dissented, Skitter's allies preferred IPS. Selynee despite her big talk at tribal, really liked both IPS and Pine, and really hates Gamma who was at risk of votes tonight entering tribal, and that was her plan going in, even if everyone else changed. Had Gamma not been a possibility tonight, Selynee would have voted with one of her allies instead.

NEXT TIME ON SURVIVOR...WE DO MATH

Immunity Challenge #3 - Great Falls of Fire

The tribes will begin on a floating platform in the ocean, 25 feet high. One at a time, castaways will either have to jump from this high perch or slide down a cargo net. They will each have to retrieve a bag of balls tied to a buoy before rallying at the tribe mat on shore. Once all castaways have made it to the tribe mat with the bags of balls, one castaway will have to untie the bags and use the balls to knock down targets. The first two tribes to finish win immunity. Additionally the winning tribe gets blankets.

Ani

With 5 votes that's enough, bring me your torch. The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: Ani completely got screwed by the tribe swap, no doubt about it. A couple things happened. Ani was in a great position in original Seratiti, but sadly swapped onto a tribe with no allies. What's worse, the former Tiawiti four were already inter allied with one another, there was just no way to break through. Ani didn't even had a bad game, IPS just had a stronger social game and the margins were so small. IPS had a threat of 0, and Ani had a threat of 1, and that's it. It'll be interesting to see what this tribe does if it loses again, because IPS has made inroads and could be officially added to the alliance next episode.

[T-Bone]

Very interesting right now. Collectively Seratiti and Tiawiti each have 14 threat among them. Rochini has 0. Never seen that before.

So, I have not yet resolved this, and it can go either way. Most of the bots are locked in, but one bot can change their vote. (I might need to add voting rules in sign ups in the future)

If you were one of the players in this situation, would you change your vote or let it go to rocks?

Oh no. Micc has the white rock! The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Torch Snuff

Micc

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: You would think this would have been an easy one with original Tiawiti outnumbering Seratiti, but sadly they had major trust issues, especially between Gamma ans Selynee. Aronis and Wooper weren't on the same page either, so they couldn't take advantage. Selynee and Micc turned on Gamma and Skitter with the vote while Aronis and Wooper split their allegiances. It might have been different had Aronis had higher threat but he was able to knock himself out of vote range. Because of everyone having relationships with Gamma and Wooper, no one was able to switch their votes and we went to ROCKS. Sadly, that is where Micc met his demise.

Is Reck next???

Wooper can't come with Gamma, Gamma hates Wooper just as much as Selynee

Spoiler: Breakdown Pt 1

Reason: What was shaping up to be a tough vote ended up straight forward at the end thanks to a poor tribal council roll for Menalque. Klick and Reck were in danger, but they had good rolls. Klick to his credit did a lot to work his way out of danger, first by patching things up with Menalque completely, and then lowering his threat enough. Menalque's threat was so high that close ally Cephrir had no choice but to vote him to save himself from being in the minority. This hurts him a little less than had he voted for Reck.

Reason: Obviously Wooper was still in trouble following last tribal council. Unlike Gamma, he couldn't get it together. Micc being eliminated via rocks helped Gamma a bit, but he also made solid moves and allowed others to make poor moves. Selynee had a terrible episode and entered in tribal council with the highest threat, and so she had to play her idol. Aronis and Wooper were also high threats, but Wooper ended up going over the top with his poor relationships. Wooper disliked Aronis more than Selynee, so that's why he voted there.

With 4 votes that's enough, bring me your torch. The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: Very interesting tribal council. Gamma and Klick enter in with the highest threat with Reck and IPS not far behind. There was a version of this where Reck goes home in a 3-2-2 vote, that's how close it was. He is very much disliked by Klick and IPS, raising him a couple of votes, and Skitter was allied to Gamma, Klick, and IPS, all the other possible vote getters for her. In the end, Aura was the deciding vote. She didn't have a relationship with either person, so voted for the player with the highest threat, Klick. There was a version where CaptMeme and Aura would have voted Gamma instead, but luckily CaptMeme is allied with Reck and would vote with him rather than send an ally out. Reck also did not have the highest or second highest threat and thus did not play his idol.

By the way. Here comes THE MERGE.

[T-Bone]

It's gonna be tough for the merged tribe. The Rochini alliance is a scary one. Probably the scariest alliance I've ever seen in my sims.

Here's how it is. We have three pairs, Reck/CaptMeme, Gamma/Skitter, and Ircher/Cephrir. Then Felissan, Raybells, and Vash make up the Rochini alliance...but could easily bring back either Aura, IPS, or both with some generous dice. If you had strong relationships on previous tribes, they don't go away completely.

[T-Bone]

Actually being the best in a tribal immunity challenge lowers your threat score.

[T-Bone]

The score constantly goes up and down, and telling you at any given time would give away the game a bit I think. I could tell you what people had when they were voted out I suppose.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: Selynee most likely would have been voted out here if not for her immunity win. With that, things opened up a bit. Skitter and Gamma, while they were great allies with one another, really struggled with the rest of the tribe and both entered in tied with a very high threat. The tribe split their votes based on preferences, and just a fw people disliked Gamma more. Skitter and Gamma voted Vash because no one else was close in threat, and they both disliked Vash and could vote together and elevate his threat a bit. Again, their preferred boot was Selynee, who wasn't possible. Rochini and Selynee voted together, the others preferred a Skitter boot over Gamma.

[T-Bone]

Skitter is in a super terrible spot now. It will take a miracle.

[T-Bone]

No, he was just bad at it. Same with CaptMeme

With 6 votes that's enough, bring me your torch. The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: Skitter had a tough situation, she needed a ton of things to go right to survive...and they almost did. It ended up being a competitive vote because of Skitter's efforts, but it wasn't enough. Felissan, Raybells, Vash, and Ircher took a shot at Selynee instead because of the work Skitter did to try and save herself. Vash, also had a terrible episode, annoying a ton of people and raising his threat to be highest after Skitter/Selynee, and idol rules forced him to use it even though it wasn't necessary. You could interpret it as Vash falling apart after receiving votes last time and overcompensating. It's just the way the dice ended up but it is interesting none the less.

The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Well, that was something. Let's go all the way back to right before the first tribal council. This was an episode that ended up going badly for a lot of people. Coming out of the last tribal, Selynee and Vash had the two highest threat with Vash a big ahead. Then others started creeping up (some started creeping up the previous episode). Selynee desparately needed immunity, so did Vash, fitting that they were the highest two at the challenge. But other things happened. By the time we entered tribal council, Reck, Aura, Cephrir, Felissan, and Vash were all at risk. This prompted Reck and Aura to play their idols. Luckily for Vash, his closest ally was Raybells, someone who also had an idol. If Vash gets voted out Raybells suddenly becomes the highest threat player, so Raybells must play the idol for Vash. The votes split along alliance lines, with old Rochini voting Reck, and everyone else voting Vash. CaptMeme threw his vote on Aura just because. It is of no consequence because of how much the two hate each other already, so I had him vote there instead just to make Aura's idol play look less dumb. Also he kinda likes Vash so no harm there. (I didn't know at the time we were going to rocks).

With 4 people already immune, Cephrir and Felissan were also in the high theat category, so once again the tribe split on the Rochini line. Avoiding rocks is something Ircher bot would have preferred, having the least amount of threat on the tribe. But his closest ally is Cephrir, so he couldn't flip his vote. Everyone else was locked in. Rocks were drawn, and IPS bit the dust. Rochini is now in the minority. But this is not a typical game of survivor, as your threat score matters. IPS had the second lowest threat on the tribe. Eliminating him does not change the threat of other players too much. Plus bots are never locked out of making friends with those outside of their alliance. We'll see what happens.

With 8 votes, that's enough bring me your torch. The tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Reason: Just fallout from the last episode. Lines were drawn between the Rochini alliance and the others, and thanks to rocks, the others won. Vash still had the highest threat from last episode, and just couldn't do anything about it. His threat was so high it made him the most viable voting option for even his two closest allies. I could have Felissan vote for someone else, but it just would have ended up being a bad vote for her bot. This ended up being straight forward, but as we get down to fewer bots, things will get more complicated again.

Immunity Challenge #12 - Vertigo

Castaways will begin on a narrow perch high above the water. They must toss down a bucket with tiny holes and pull it back up to dump water into a chute. The water will gradually raise a flag along the chute. Falling off the perch means instant elimination. The last person remaining on their perch or the first to retrieve their flag wins immunity.

- T-Probst notes that the wind and surf is getting choppy as the castaways take their positions.
- The game begins as castaways toss their buckets down. CaptMeme tries to pull up his bucket super fast and instead he falls from the perch!
- The rest of the cast continue to pull up their buckets at various speeds, with Fellisan seemingly taking an early lead on the flag.
- Another huge gust of wind forces the castaways to brace. Cephrir drops his bucket and leans to grab the rope again only to tumble forward into the water!
- Felissan and Aura continue to make the most progress while Selynee and Raybells trail behind them. Ircher and Reck have made little progress on their flags.
- A light mist begins to fall, making conditions more difficult for the remaining castaways.
- Selynee pulls up her bucket and dumps very little water in the chute. She angrily tosses the bucket back down into the water and the rope gets twisted around the perch. She tries to lean down to fix it but ends up having to bail into the water instead.
- Unexpectedly Aura yells about losing her balance and drops into the ocean.
- Another gust of wind also takes out Ircher as he jumps unable to stay anymore.
- Felissan and Raybells continue to work on raising their flags, while Reck seems to have abandoned that plan and just tries to hold on.
- Felissan pulls up another bucket of water and inches the flag closer to the top. Raybells dumps another as well, and then holds himself against the perch as another big gust of wind hits them.
- Reck and Raybells watch to see if Felissan can do it as she begins pulling up the bucket again. She loses her balance though and falls backwards off the perch.
- Reck and Raybells remain, with Raybell's flag a little more than halfway up and Reck's barely a third.
- Raybells decides to start using his bucket again to pull up water, while Reck chooses to just try to keep his composure.
- Raybells dumps more water down his chute inching the flag closer to the top. With the wind calming down a big Raybells moves a little faster.
- Reck watches, waiting to see if Raybells succeeds or falls off his perch.
- Raybells dumps more water down the chute as he can see the flag getting closer to his position. He tries to crotch down and gets his fingertips on it. He stretches a little further...and slips off the perch and into the water.
- Reck yells and jumps down. Reck wins individual immunity!

Roserawiti Events

The tribe heads to tribal council.

[T-Bone]

Tribal Council #13

The tribe comes in with tension in the air once more.
Reck tries to downplay his challenge strength, but the tribe does point out he used great strategy to win again.
CaptMeme is also highlighted as having failed at yet another challenge and isn't threatening in them.
Cephrir says he's worried there is a plan he doesn't know about which gives him some side-eye look at tribal.
Felissan says she isn't feeling great about what she has to do, and this resonates with the tribe.

Voting

"You can't win if you don't make big moves, so I'm making one." - Ircher
"Time for you to finally go." - Reck
"This is risky and if it doesn't work out, I'm exposed again" - Felissan

If anyone has the hidden immunity idol and wants to play it, now would be the time to do so. Okay, I'll read the votes. The person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

Bring me your torch, the tribe has spoken.

Spoiler: Breakdown

An emotional betrayal! (If bots had emotions) Let's of course back up. After Vash's elimination, that made Raybells the new highest threat player, and it wasn't close. You can kinda see Felissanbot start to distance herself from her doomed allies, and she ended up being the one to cut them. Since the merge Ircher had developed a secret relationship with Raybells, which kept growing steadily, to the point where Raybells was almost as important to Ircher as Cephrir is. Which is sort of cool for Ircher as this secret alliance has helped him maintain the lowest threat level since the merge. But now this was a problem for Ircher since Raybells was the biggest threat. Luckily for him he didn't like CaptMeme and had a viable alternative. CaptMeme had steadily inched up in threat, so entering tribal council he was tied for second behind Raybells. Raybells was still clear a full three points. Still, that was enough for Ircher to flip his vote, but not enough to convince Cephrir to do it. Reck, CaptMeme, Cephrir, and Selynee vote for Raybells, while Ircher and Aura are happy to vote CaptMeme. Felissan has a tie between CaptMeme and Raybells. Raybells was still this huge threat, and Felissan and Raybells had grown distant. So, when it came time to re-vote Felissan could flip her vote in a way that no other bot could. Felissan's most important relationship is with Aura, so rocks taking out Aura or Felissan would be disastrous for her game, so she flipped her vote. Raybells going isn't all that bad for Felissan at this point. Thus ends a beautiful Day 1 alliance in original Seratiti. Ircher's play backfires, and things open up a bit.

[T-Bone]

Because when you have points in a stat that no one else left in the game has...suddenly you start winning challenges. Also your 5 in strategy.

Also, Ircherbot could have reasonably expected Cephrir, his closest ally, to be onboard with the plan.

[T-Bone]

Anyway here's our schedule. Next episode will be a double episode, as they are getting short with 7 and then 6 left.

At 5 left we do the finale. If you saw the first episode I added a lot more flavor to the final episode. My plan is to do that again with the Final 5.

So we're almost there. I'm not competing with the TV Survivor finale so mine is happening first!

[T-Bone]

Episode 13

Cephrir is upset at Ircher for making a move without him, and Ircher profusely apologizes, says it won't happen again.
Selynee mentions to Cephrir how she knew Ircher couldn't be trusted, but Cephrir doesn't appreciate the shade being thrown to his ally.

Immunity Challenge #13 - Jail Break

The castaways find themselves behind a door locked with three padlocks. First they must dig up five bags containing the materials they need to construct a key retrieval tool.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Clutch immunity win by Aura. Raybells going home was bad for her, and then she won the reward challenge right after. She was high and away ahead in threat after all that, but this immunity challenge happened to be perfect for her bot. Meanwhile Selynee just had a poor episode. She actually started the episode with the lowest threat as the Raybells boot was great for her. Her rolls were bad, and rolls that were bad for others went against her. It resulted in her basically alienating her allies, of which she didn't have anyone strong besides Cephrir. Because of Aura's immunity and Felissan lowering her threat, not even Cephrir could avoid voting for Selynee as the next viable would have been Ircher and he wouldn't do that. Selynee has hated Ircher for a long time and he was finally viable for a vote, but it didn't matter because of Aura's immunity and her bad episode.

Spoiler: Breakdown

Just tough luck there at the end. Once again Ircher and Cephrir despite being in an alliance are not on the same page because of their sub-relationships which once again causes a swap in a vote. This time however, both were resolute as Ircher really disliked CaptMeme, and Cephrir really disliked Aura. Felissan and Aura are close allies, and CaptMeme and Reck were still in an alliance. So no one could change their vote, and sadly, Reck drew the white rock. The really sad part for Reckbot is that CaptMeme soured on him and might have switched his vote were the roles reversed. But CaptMeme got the votes because he has poor relationships with Aura, Ircher, and Felissan. Reck got hosed here as his best move was to vote Cephrir, but Cephrir and CaptMeme wouldn't do that. Anyway, here we are. The Finale is coming next. CaptMeme, Aura, Ircher, Cephrir, and Felissan. One of these five bots will be your sole survivor!

NEXT TIME ON SURVIVOR....THE FINAL 5 BATTLE

"My game has been flawless so far, and I am so close!" - Ircher

"I've had some close calls, some too close, but I can see the end in sight." - Cephrir

"Just two more votes, and I get the make my case to the jury." - Aura

"They sent all my friends to the jury, but I'm still here, and I'm going to win!" - Felissan

"Time to turn it on, start winning challenges, and win this game. I'm on my own now." - CaptMeme

Five castaways, three tribal councils...ONE SURVIVOR

[T-Bone]

I mean since I roll dice for everything, including the rocks, the entire game is decided by rocks.

[T-Bone]

There probably are too many rock draws. When I fixed the formula to prevent people from making sub-optimal votes that don't make sense, I've now cropped up a new problem that seems to force ties too much.

For example under the old formula Reck votes Cephrir, and CaptMeme straight up just goes home on a minority vote. In other rounds the old formula usually would have had someone make a rogue vote and otherwise screw over their allies (and themselves). The old formula produced too many minority eliminations for my liking. It's clear I'll have to write new rules for resolving ties, but alas that's for a future season.

[T-Bone]

Just a quick update. One-third of the finale is complete, I also know who the Final 4 are. I'm projecting we have finale night over the weekend.

[T-Bone]

Two thirds is done. I know who the Final 3 are, and will begin simming the jury phase tonight. We're on track for Finale Night on Saturday. Get hyped.

[T-Bone]

The winner of Sim Survivor 2 has been crowned!

I will begin posting the finale tomorrow evening. I will either be hijacking a channel on the Mish Mash Discord or asking for one to be created for the Finale, so we can do breakdowns of the sim, reactions, and whatever other discussions.

I will start posting at 7pm EST. (or around there)

[T-Bone]

I won't drag it out, it'll probably be posted within the hour.

[T-Bone]

Gonna start posting. Please note I wrote dialogue and flavor for the bots. If they don't speak like you, nothing I can do about that, sorry.

[T-Bone]

TONIGHT ON SURVIVOR

THE FINAL 5 GO TO WAR

Night 35

The tribe comes back in silence from tribal. CaptMeme narratives.

"The only way that could have gone worse for me, had I been voted out. Reck and I were together since Day 1, and now I'm all alone on this tribe, and they still want me out. If I don't start winning, I'm screwed.

Sun rises, Felissan narrates.

"Last night couldn't have gone any better for me! Ircher and Cephrir didn't vote together yet again, Reck is gone, and at this point I don't think anyone is looking at me. For the first time since the merge, I feel like I could win this game!"

Cephrir and CaptMeme are walking to the well.

"Dude, we got played last night. You can't trust Ircher!"

"I don't know what's up with him. Man, I'm sorry I didn't know."

"I know you didn't. Listen, he's a threat to win this game."

"I know."

"I know you've been together a long time, but maybe it's time to think about your own game? What are the jury going to think?"

"I don't know man."

"Hey, I got you. You kept me here last night when you didn't have to, and that goes a long way with me."

"I appreciate it."

Cephrir narrates.

"CaptMeme makes some good points. Right now, maybe I look to work with him instead. He's always been straight with me about his votes, that counts for something right?"

Aura and Felissan are sitting at the beach.

"I know the boys are still looking at me. They are so weird around camp."

"Relax, Aura. They don't trust each other fully, and we can use that. If we stay together, we'll be sitting at the end."

"I'm just worried things will go wrong."

Reward Challenge

The tribe walks up to the challenge mat. T-Probst addresses them.

"It's time for your final reward challenge. In today's challenge you will drop a ball down a track. Then another, then another, until you have 8 balls going down the track. You will need to keep the balls in motion by catching them at the bottom of the track. If you drop a ball, you're out. Last person standing wins reward, at a critical time in this game. The winner will receive a 3-course meal prepared by a local chef at camp this afternoon, that they will enjoy by themselves. No one else will share in the reward. Let's draw spots and get started."

Aura drops first. A couple minutes later Cephrir drops. Then Felissan. CaptMeme is the last to drop. Ircher wins the reward challenge!

The tribe returns to camp congratulating Ircher. He narrates.

"I'm not in the perfect position I was for most of this game, so I needed that win. Hopefully this reward gives me the edge in the immunity challenge tomorrow."

CaptMeme is sitting by the fire at camp. Aura walks by and CaptMeme watches. Aura snaps.

"What? Wondering how you're going to get me out? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"What are you talking about? I'm just sitting here."

"Sure you are."

Felissan narrates.

"Why is she blowing up now? I gotta get her to cool off."

Felissan walks into camp and takes Aura away. CaptMeme mouths the word "crazy" to the camera.

"Would you relax?"

"Meme wants me out, I can feel it."

"He's only one vote, do you want the boys to also have a reason to vote you?"

Ircher comes up into camp. He narrates.

"At this point, I'm looking for any reason to get someone out, and Aura may have just gifted one to me."

Cephrir narrates.

"I have to talk to Ircher and find out if we're on the same page or not. This is getting ridiculous."

Cephrir pulls Ircher down into the woods.

"Dude, I'm trying to figure out if you're with me or not."

"I am!"

"Then why do you keep flipping the vote on me? Skitter, Raybells, now Aura. What are you doing?"

"I'm just trying to do what's best for our game! I'm sorry, I know I should have told you, but I had to do it."

"Best for our game? Or yours? Am I your partner, or is Felissan? Because you voted with her more recently than me!"

"I'm sorry, it was all last minute. Trust me, you can trust me."

"Okay. Okay. Fine."

Cephrir in confessional just puts his head in his hands.

[T-Bone]

Immunity Challenge #15 - Take The Reigns

"Come on in guys! For today's challenge, you must balance a ball on a plate, using two ropes to keep the plate level and the ball from dropping, while standing on a narrow beam. At regular intervals more balls will be added until you're balancing three balls. If at any time a ball drops from the plate, or you step down, you're out. The last person balancing balls wins individual immunity and has a one in four shot in winning this game. Ircher, I hope that reward last night serves you well. Felissan, I'll take the immunity necklace back. Let's get started."

- The challenge is on as each castaway places a ball on their plate and gets started.
- T-Probst walks up and down the row. Aura wobbles a bit but recovers. CaptMeme stands like a statue.

- CaptMeme stares straight forward as his balls gently roll on the plate.
- Aura is shaking on her perch as she maneuvers the balls on her plate. CaptMeme starts shaking on his perch as he tries to steady the ropes.
- CaptMeme seems to lose his balance and lets out a grunt. Aura chances a look over to him and then looks back to see her balls rolling.
- Aura jerks the ropes to save her ball but a different one rolls off. CaptMeme throws up his ropes in celebration!
- CaptMeme wins individual immunity! He is guaranteed a spot in the Final 4!

CaptMeme narrates.

"Finally! I've been wanting this for so long, and it has come at the best time! They can't get rid of me tonight!"

The tribe comes back from the challenge. CaptMeme hangs up his necklace and walks down to the beach. Aura and Felissan head to the well with all the canteens.

"He's the swing vote. We're gonna have to make nice with him, Aura."

"Ugh. I know. What is he even going to do?"

"He either votes you, or he votes Ircher. I think he likes Cephrir too much."

"I'm cool. Are you okay with that?"

Felissan narratives.

"I'm not sure I'm okay with that."

Ircher is laying in the shelter while Cephrir checks the fire. Ircher looks around and then leans over.

"This is easy right? CaptMeme is the swing vote, but you can get him."

"You and I are voting together this time?"

"Why would you ask that?"

"Come on dude, you know why."

"I'm sorry. How many times do I have to say it?"

Cephrir sits in confessional and just shakes his head.

"I can't trust him. He could be winding me up to flip the vote on me tonight. I have to do something."

Aura joins CaptMeme on the beach.

"Come to make your case?"

"You did it man, you have all the power. But, if you take Cephrir or Ircher to the end, they are gonna beat you with the jury."

"How do you mean?"

"Everyone loves Cephrir, and Ircher made moves. What have you or I done? Won a challenge?"

"Okay, give me a name."

"Cephrir."

"And if I don't?"

"What do you want me to say?"

CaptMeme narrates.

"I was surprised, but Aura makes an interesting point."

The tribe heads for Tribal Council.

[T-Bone]

Tribal Council #16

The tribe enters the tribal council area as the jury takes their seats as well.

"Let's talk about the last tribal council. Cephrir, you seemed surprised after the votes were read. Why was that?"

"I was just expecting certain people to vote the same way I was."

"Certain people?"

"Ircher."

"Ircher, care to respond?"

"I thought we were on the same page."

"What? No way, that's not what you told me!"

Aura and Felissan look at each other wide-eyed.

"Aura, what was that right there as Cephrir and Ircher argued?"

"I'm just shocked. Those two were so tight throughout the entire game."

"T-Probst, we can't have been that tight, Ircher and I haven't always voted together like Aura and Felissan have."

"Is that your pitch to say that Aura and Felissan are a more threatening pair than you and Ircher?"

"No, I'm just saying we haven't really been a pair at all. Not one that has been on the same page."

CaptMeme makes a whistle sound.

"Could have fooled me, since when I made the same case about Reck and I, I got targeted last tribal."

"So is it fair to say you want to send a message to the 'pairs' left in the game?"

"It's fair to say I am out to get myself to the end. Whether I have people with me, or if I have to do it myself."

The rest of the tribe looks silently at T-Probst.

"Are we ready to vote? Alright. CaptMeme, you're up."

Voting

"You are definitely a threat to win this game, and I'm glad everyone is starting to realize it." - CaptMeme
"Hey man, you played a great game and that's why you have to go tonight." - Aura

T-Probst retrieves the urn.

"Once the vote is read, the person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes."

Day 38

Ircher sits on the beach and narrates.

"Do I feel bad about the vote last night? No. Cephrir and I were together a long time, but I think the two votes cast against me last night prove I made the right decision."

CaptMeme is sitting by the fire. In the shelter Aura yawns and wakes up.

"Sleep good?"

"About as well as any night."

"Well after I win immunity I hope it keeps you up all night. Assuming your best buds don't decide to cut you."

"I think you have a good shot at winning."

"Thanks."

Aura rolls her eyes in confessional.

"I'll play nice for now, and when he loses, we'll cut him."

Ircher and Aura are walking in the woods.

"You should have heard him earlier, he is really confident he's going to win today."

"He's not...but if he does...what do you think?"

"I don't want to think about that. Positive thinking, it's three against one."

"Right."

Cut to a shot of Felissan and Ircher walking.

"What do you think happens if he wins?"

"I don't want to think that far ahead. I want it to be you, me, and Aura at the end."

"Me too. But we have to think about it. Would you take Aura, or me?"

"Please don't make me answer that now."

"She's good. But, okay, okay. I'm sorry."

Ircher in confessional.

"Beating CaptMeme would be ideal. But if not, I need to start planting the seed with Aura and Felissan so they take me instead of each other."

[T-Bone]

Immunity Challenge #17 - Roundabout

Castaways will race out in a turnstile maze to retrieve four medallions at different stations near the corners of the maze. At the stations castaways will use a machete to free the medallions from where they are secured. Once they have all four medallions, they can use them to open a chest at the center of the maze, which has cog puzzle pieces. They will use the cogs to solve a puzzle that once completed will allow the castaway to turn a wheel and raise a flag. The first castaway to raise their flag wins immunity.

- The four remaining castaways take spots at the four corners of the maze. From clockwise upper left corner to lower right corner, the order is Aura, Ircher, CaptMeme, Felissan.

- Ircher navigates to CaptMeme and starts following him as he searches for the way to the station.
- Felissan finally gets to her first station. She starts chopping away at her medallion.
- CaptMeme and Ircher both get to the station and start chopping at the medallions. CaptMeme makes quick work of his ropes and takes off leaving Ircher behind.
- Aura finds her first station and walks to it. Breathing heavily she starts cutting through her ropes.
- CaptMeme races out to the center of the maze and drops the second medallion at his station. He then starts towards the corner where Aura is.
- Ircher continues to hack at the rope, trying to pull the medallion free but struggling at this stage.
- Felissan finally pulls her first medallion free. She starts walking back through the maze.
- CaptMeme joins Aura at her station and starts working on his third medallion. Aura is still having trouble cutting through hers.
- Ircher gets his first medallion free and starts back into the maze.
- CaptMeme pulls his third medallion free and races back into the maze.
- Felissan gets to the center and drops her first medallion. She goes ahead and starts heading towards the section Aura started in.
- CaptMeme and Felissan pass one another in the maze, and Aura gets her medallion free.
- Ircher makes it to the center of the maze and drops his first medallion. He turns to watch CaptMeme and waits for him. CaptMeme returns with his third medallion and heads out for his final one, and Ircher follows him.
- Aura calls out to Felissan to guide her to the station. She arrives and starts working on it while Aura starts making her way to the center.
- CaptMeme arrives at the station to grab his final medallion with Ircher right behind him. CaptMeme ferociously attacks the rope with his machete to free it and starts heading back.
- Aura makes it to the center of the maze and drops her first medallion at her station. She turns and watches CaptMeme start to make his way back and goes towards him to try and figure the path.
- Felissan frees her medallion and starts heading back.
- Aura tries to obstruct CaptMeme in the maze to slow him down.
- Ircher gets his second free and starts walking back through the maze.
- CaptMeme pushes pass Aura and works back towards the center. Aura calls out to Ircher to try and help him with the path.
- CaptMeme arrives at his station and unlocks his chest. He starts to untie the cog puzzle pieces.
- Felissan and Ircher meet up in the center and both drop their next medallions. They talk to each other to try and point out the paths to the stations.
- Aura gets to her second station while Felissan and Ircher break their huddle to go look for their third.
- CaptMeme gets all the puzzle pieces out and starts working on the puzzle, placing a couple of cogs.
- Aura turns to where Icher is running and shouts directions to her original station. With a little assistance Ircher arrives and starts chopping at the rope.
- CaptMeme lays out his remaining pieces on the sand and looks over the puzzle some more before swapping a couple of pieces he had placed.
- Felissan finds her way to her third medallion and starts chopping at it. Ircher gets his free and starts running back while Aura shouts directions at him.
- CaptMeme starts putting more pieces on the puzzle and tests the rotation. He starts shouting as he places the final piece and starts cranking the wheel for his flag. It goes up!
- Ircher tosses down his medallion in the sand just as he trots to the center while CaptMeme celebrates the biggest blowout victory in Sim Survivor history.
- CaptMeme wins individual immunity! He is guaranteed a spot in the Final 3!

Roserawiti Camp Life

CaptMeme stands alone on the beach with the immunity necklace.

"Oh my, I can't believe I did this! It was three on one and I was toast without this. Now I have a shot to face the jury! I just have one more thing to do, to decide who best to sit next to at the end."

Felissan asks Ircher and Aura if they want anything from the well and then walks off.

"Psst, Aura. Do you think you can beat her?"

"I'm more worried about beating CaptMeme."

"I know, but I mean, Felissan played a better game than you or I have, think about it."

Aura narrates in confessional.

"Ircher brings up a good point. Felissan made moves, I think people felt Felissan was in-charge of the Rochini alliance, she has a good shot. But, can I beat her? I'm not sure."

Ircher approaches CaptMeme who is still sitting on the beach.

"Hey man, can we talk?"

"What's up?"

"Those girls are tight. I know we haven't seen eye to eye recently, but I want to appeal to you to give me a shot."

"Okay, what are you thinking?"

"You're a competitor, and I'm a competitor. I know you know I wanted to take you out because you're better than those two. But thinking about it, and knowing you, I think your better move is to keep me and vote out Aura."

"Yeah?"

"Then you can tell the jury that you are sitting next to the best. Felissan and I have both had moments, what has Aura had? If you take her, the jury isn't going to respect you."

"You think so?"

"I know I won't. I mean, I don't want to threaten you."

"Right, let me think about it."

CaptMeme narrates.

"I could kind of see what Ircher was saying, but why did he tell me he thinks I can beat the girls and that he would work against me on the jury? I have a lot to think about, as this could decide whether I win or lose."

The tribe grabs their stuff and heads to tribal council.

[T-Bone]

Tribal Council #17

The remaining four castaways take their seats and watch the jury enter. T-Probst turns to the Final 4.

"That was one heck of a challenge. How important was this win to you, CaptMeme?"

"T-Probst, if I didn't win I was joining the jury. Simple as that. Those three are tight."

"Felissan, do you agree with that assessment?"

"I do. I'm not gonna lie. I really respect CaptMeme as a player, and that's why he would have had to have gone if he didn't win today."

"Ircher?"

"I don't know, maybe there would have been merits to not voting out CaptMeme. Had I won immunity today, I'd have to strongly consider proving myself to the jury by going against a competitor."

Aura shakes her head. T-Probst looks over to her.

"Wow Aura, you shook your head immediately."

"He's lying."

"Do you want to elaborate?"

"He's lying because he wants CaptMeme to vote with him now. He's lying because there are only three of us left and one of us is going home in a few minutes. I'm sorry CaptMeme, the three of us would have voted you out, and Ircher was going to lead that charge."

"No I wasn't."

"CaptMeme, what do you think?"

"I think anything could happen. The three of them don't even need me to vote with them to settle things tonight. They could do it themselves."

Felissan raises her hand.

"But why would you say that?"

"I only have one vote, you all have three. Just like the three of you tried to work together in the competition."

"I wanted to talk to you, but you hung out on the beach all by yourself today."

CaptMeme just shrugs.

"Are we ready to vote?"

The tribe nods.

"Alright, CaptMeme you are up."

Voting

"This is the best move for me." - CaptMeme
"I don't think you deserve to be here anymore." - Ircher
"Time for you to go, sorry." - Aura
"I hope things work out as planned and you go quietly." - Felissan

T-Probst retrieves the urn.

"Once the vote is read, the person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes."

Nine players you had a hand in voting out of this game, who have been watching you every tribal council. Three of you will face the jury, but only one of you will be crowned sole survivor. Head back to camp, goodnight."

[T-Bone]

Day 39

The sun rises on camp for the final day. CaptMeme walks back from treemail with a crate of food. He narrates.

"Day 39. This is a dream come true. Just one more thing to do now."

CaptMeme drops the crate near the fire and calls to the others.

"It's our day 39 feast!"

The three remaining tribemates settle in for a hearty breakfast, Aura narrates.

"Getting here was great. Just thinking about how hard this journey has been, and now I get to make my case to the jury tonight."

Its late in the day as the three remaining tribemates have finished setting their camp on fire as is tradition. Felissan narrates.

"I know I played a winning game. I got here to Day 39. I've been rehersing my speech all day."

CaptMeme, Aura, and Felissan collect their torches and head to tribal council.

Final Tribal Council

The Final three arrive and take their seats. Moments later, T-Probst leads the jury into the tribal council area.

"CaptMeme, Aura, and Felissan. You are the final three. You have gone as far as you can go in this game. But we're not done. Now the power shifts to the jury. Nine people you all had a hand in eliminating to get to this point. Here's how this will work. You will each get a chance to make an opening statement. Then, the jury will get to ask you questions to determine their vote. Tonight, you want to have your name written down. Welcome to the Final Tribal Council. I will give you all a moment to gather your thoughts."

The three remaining castaways stare intently at the jury.

"Alright. It is time for opening statements. CaptMeme, you are up."

CaptMeme stands up and faces the jury.

"Hi jury. I'm CaptMeme, and I am your next Sole Sim Survivor. I've done it all in this game. I have vanquished foes, I have survived the votes, and I have won do or die challenges. No one else has the resume I have. I played a strong game, and I'm proud of it. It deserves your votes. Thank you."

CaptMeme sits down and T-Probst points to Aura who stands up.

"Jury, you should cast your votes for Sole Sim Survivor for me tonight. I'm an underdog come to life. I spent most of the game at the bottom, climbing up towards the top on every tribe, whether it was Rochini, Seratiti, or even the merged tribe, but I persevered. My game was about survival, despite people wanting me out time and time again. No one else could do what I did, and that's why I'm here tonight. Thank you."

Aura sits down. Felissan stands up and turns towards the jury.

"Thank you. I should be crowned Sole Sim Survivor tonight. I played the best game. I controlled my tribe and alliance during the pre-merge. I was in such a power position that it took a random rock to take me down. And when that rock took me down, I got to work again. I had to lose some friends along the way, but by the time we got near the end of this game, I was in a power position once again, sending all of you to the jury. I had to play cut throat at times, but that game play is why I should win this game."

Felissan nods and sits down. T-Probst turns towards the jury.

"Jury, you've heard their opening statements. Now it is your turn to address the final three. One at a time you'll come forward. IPS, start us off."

"Thanks. Tribe, my vote is up in the air tonight. As was just alluded to, I was eliminated not by a vote, but a rock. CaptMeme, this random rock argubly helped you more than the other two. Why should you earn my vote?"

"We still beat your alliance. We know the Rochini five would have steamrolled us otherwise. It wasn't a perfect move, but it was still the right one."

"Okay. Thank you."

"Thanks. Skitter, you're up."

"Hi everyone. Aura and Felissan. You two were allies, and CaptMeme is here by himself. Why should the jury view your achievements as tougher than his? Aura you can go first."

"Sure Felissan and I are good friends and allies...but Felissan hid behind me and the threat I posed. When it was time to break up our alliance you all were keen on targetting me before targetting her, cause I'm the bigger threat."

"That's not true. I don't think Aura had the game awareness I had. I was the one who made the tough decision to turn on some of my allies after we got thrust into the minority, which I know seems bad, but Aura wanted to go down with the sinking ship."

"Thank you both."

"Raybells, you're next."

"Can the three of you tell me your best move of the game? I'll go left to right, CaptMeme, Aura, and Felissan."

"My back was against the wall after Reck left, and I came with two decisive immunity victories."

"That's your move? Okay. Aura?"

"When we eliminated Selynee. I know the tribe was eying me up, and then I won immunity. The tribe could have eliminated Felissan, but I think I flipped the vote onto Selynee instead."

"Felissan?"

"I don't think she can take full credit for that. Ray, sorry, but it was eliminating you. As I said our alliance was a sinking ship, and I got off. It changed the way the tribe saw me and then we went and eliminated Selynee and Reck next instead of me."

"Alright, thank you."

"Cephrir, you're up."

"Thank you. I think one player had the more impressive game. So I want to ask Felissan, who was responsible for my falling out with Ircher. Was it his decision, or was it your alliance with him?"

"I can't say what his motives were. But this was an underated element of my strategy. Ircher wasn't in my alliance at the merge, but I cultivated a strong relationship with him, and that helped keep me safe even when you all were trying to dismantle my alliance."

"Okay, thank you."

"Reck, you're up."

"I haven't decided my vote yet. Can the three of you describe what your plans were if a rock draw didn't cause two random eliminations? CaptMeme?"

"I would hope that we'd be sitting here together."

"Aura?"

"I think you were my biggest threat to winning this game. Instead of a rock draw, I think we just would have worked harder to isolate you and CaptMeme and eliminate you both."

"Okay. Felissan?"

"You can't re-write history Reck."

"If that's your answer, I'm finished. Thanks, everyone."

"Vash you're up."

"Thanks. One question for all of you. What is the one thing the jury should respect about your game. CaptMeme?"

"My strength. I used it to great effect, as I dominated during the pre-merge and at times carried my tribes to victory. Then I was able to turn it on again in the last two challenges. Being the big obvious physical threat is hard in a game like this, everyone is looking at you all the time, but I made it work."

"Okay. Aura?"

"I think I played a well rounded game. I found an idol, I won an immunity challenge, I voted correctly more often than anyone else. CaptMeme did one thing better than everyone else. But I did just about everything you have to do in this game."

"Felissan?"

"I was always in the right place at the right time and was never really endangered. I think that counts for everything in a game like this."

"Thank you all."

"Ircher, you're up."

"Long time no see eh? Aura, I feel you were a non-factor in this game. Here's your chance to change my mind. Why am I wrong?"

"Harsh. You're wrong because I was active in every facet of the game. I made it a point not to piss people off, I played hard in challenges and around camp, and again, I cast more correct votes then either CaptMeme or Felissan. Plus, you tried to get me out at the end. If I was the non-factor you claim, you wouldn't have been trying to sit next me here tonight."

"Okay, thank you."

"Selynee?"

"I honestly can't say I'm still not bitter about everyone teaming up to vote me out. CaptMeme, why didn't we finish the job against Rochini?"

"Cause you were a threat. It was the right move. You won some challenges, and I couldn't risk that you'd go on a winning streak."

"Thank you. Aura and Felissan, why did you give me the cold shoulder at the merge?"

"I didn't do it on purpose, I just didn't think I could trust you. You did help flip the game against us, so wasn't I right?"

"Couldn't trust you, sorry. I'm not going to butter you up. You were a threat and you had to go"

"Alright, thank you."

"Okay Gamma, bring us home."

"I've been watching you all for a long time. I'm not particularly impressed. I think you all had serious errors in your game, and I don't mean voting me out. CaptMeme, how come you and Reck didn't have the awareness to know that Rochini would take control at the merge?"

"I think we knew, and it worked out."

"Yeah, with a rock. Aura, how come everyone credits the Rochini alliance as Felissan and Raybells? Were you riding coattails?"

"I didn't have the benefit of sticking with a majority of my friends, I got separated from what you all call the Rochini alliance and had to survive on my own. I found an idol, and I ended up playing it at the right time. Had I not been separated, I would have never found the idol, and could have been eliminated by a rock."

"Okay. Felissan, you said you turned on your allies because it was a sinking ship, but you were the captain of that ship."

"This isn't the navy. This is Survivor. There is no reason I should have gone down with the ship. As you alluded to, a rock did us in. I think without that rock I would have been able to play a more dominate game and you wouldn't be up here talking about mistakes you think I made."

"Alright, thank you."

"Jury, thank you for your questions. Everyone, thank you for a great season. Jury, it is now time to vote. You are voting for a winner tonight. Reck, you're up."

Now I wanna see an anon game where all the decisions are made by bots and not the actual people in the slot. That would be hilarious.

This was super cool! Thanks T-Probst!

All the bots do make the decisions though?

[T-Bone]

I'm working on a game where people play the social and the bots do everything else, actually.
