That's right, kids. A long weekend full of backstabbing, scheming, outwitting, and outplaying! If you want to play Survivor IRL and take part in silly challenge

Seriously though <3 you all

I'm trying to write a mega-post to everyone and I'm having a really hard time because I really just don't want to do anything right now.

The gay sidekick to the straight hero was brutally slaughtered, leading to him to make a heroic run where he ultimately overcame the gay villain in the end.

GAY MEN STILL CAN'T BE THE HERO WHAT YEAR IS THIS???

You're going about this all wrong, all you have to do, as the gay sidekick, is convert him to the dark side.

I thought that's what we talked about in our last secret gay mafia meet?

Spectators: Thank you guys so much for being invested in the game. It kind of sucks that the thread starts for you guys right after the Axxle blindside - the pre-merge had a lot of crazy shit and a few crazy TCs (that I wasn't a part of QQ). You guys being engaged and talking about the game from the thread was really fun to read afterwards, and it let me see how different of a lens I had on the game from the people watching outside it. Also, I'm glad you guys enjoyed my jury speech. I was feeling a bit of pressure to deliver, especially b/c I wasn't feeling bitter enough to pull out a truly ~iconic bitter speech~. Also, I had a lot more written notes that I wasn't able to memorize :/

Will and Brock: You guys are both the best. Thank you so much again for hosting this. The fact that the post-meet blues have me holding back tears as as I write this should speak to how insanely successful this meet was. I will move heaven and earth to be able to be there next year, and for as long as I we are able to do this. You guys also took on the challenge of being the first ones to do it. Brian and I spent a good chunk of time in the car on the way to DC talking about what we can do next year to make this even more epic, and that wouldn't have been possible without you guys taking that first, gargantuan leap. You two are the absolute best.

Nuwen: I'm super happy that you were able to make it for a bit of the meet. It sucks that you couldn't play - I think you would have really had a great time. It's always a joy to hang out with you.

Xof: I had no idea what to expect with you, since I'm new to mishmash and we hadn't had much interaction. You took that first boot with amazing grace - far more than I'd have been capable of - and you were absolutely amazing all weekend. It was super awesome having all that time to shoot the shit with you about whatever the fuck we were talking about. You're a fucking gem, and I PROMISE I'LL GET THAT MLS SURVIVOR INFORMATION TO YOU SOON(ish)

UT: It was great to see you again. Sucks that we didn't get to hang out a ton during this weekend, since you're always a blast. You better ping me next time you're up in DC.

CC: You also took getting voted out early super well. Your commentary was constantly cutting and hilarious. I wish you'd gotten a chance to play the game longer, but a lot of what you set up with the spec stuff is going to end up making next year's meet super awesome. The periscopes are fucking iconic - never take those down.

Berry: You're a super awesome dude. It was fun getting to hang out and actually talk after I was voted out, especially given the context of us LITERALLY NOT TALKING UNTIL AFTER I WAS BLINDSIDED. That was super dumb. I wish we'd gotten to play more board games together (read: any), since I definitely feel like I didn't get to spend enough time with you.

Xalxe: I'M SORRY I FUCKED US OVER WITH MY OVERPLAYING THE SWAP. I finally figured out what the correct play on the swap game would have been for us obsessing over it, at least (anyone who can guess 1000 internet points). You were also super great at helping out, and it was really fun reading your shitposting in the Skype thread. Above all, you were super fun to shoot the shit with - you're a hilarious dude. Also, you/me/berry needed to be cracking way more sex jokes all weekend - we definitely didn't do a good enough job making the straights uncomfortable.

Pie: You were super fun all weekend. I'm glad you had a good time being roped into this, and I'm sorry I had to vote you out (which ended up being a mistake because GOD DAMMIT JASON)

Axxle: It was awesome to get to see you so soon after Chicago, especially since that meant we actually had time to hang out for a reasonable amount of time. That shopping trip was a ton of fun, even if it was mostly shopping + waiting for the deli to slice all of that meat for Brian. You're a super chill dude with a naturally relaxing presence, which I especially needed at this meet. I can't wait for the next meet we're at together.

Shadoweh: All I really knew about you coming into this meet was your play as Elizabeth Warren in #2016. You were fucking awesome to watch play and awesome to chat with on the jury. It's always awesome to meet someone who's as big as, if not a bigger fan, of Survivor as I am. You were also a super friendly, open person, which I think is how you managed to keep sliding through the game while accumulating SIXTEEN FUCKING VOTES. I can't wait to play more games with you on the forums.

Gamma: You played your heart out in this game, and it was awesome. It's a shame I got blindsided out when I did, because that talk we had on the porch that round was really great, and it made me seriously rethink the plans I was forming at the time. Also, just getting to hang out with you is always a pleasure.

Ryan: I was super hype to get to hang out with you this meet b/c of the awesome time we

got screwed out of getting wasted

hung out in Downtown Disney at Orlandomeet. The game obviously got in the way of that (fuck gamestates AMIRITE), but you at least got to get out early enough that we could hang a bit on the jury (and in what will be a TC that will be hard to ever top with HOW FUCKING AMAZING it was). As always, you're a super awesome dude, and maybe next meet the gamestate will let us work together.

Jason: YOU GOT ME GOOD BROSEPH. While I'm sad I didn't get to make an ~iconic bitter jury speech~ against you, you did an absolutely amazing job completely duping me about your position in the game. You're also a super fun dude, and I'm glad we actually got to hang out this meet because lol Chicagomeet (oh there's a theme here...). You're so fucking nice, it actually makes it more impressive how easily you were able to pull the wool over so many eyes for so long.

Cody: Thank you for taking that last jury speech, because I think you ended it in a way that was far more raw and emotional than I could have with how this game played out. You're super awesome, and I got to see a side of you that I didn't get to fully see in Chicago, which was really cool. You've got a lot of depth and charisma, and it was really cool to actually get to experience that after the game when we were just chilling.

Mollie: I mean what I said in my speech, that I don't think you fully understand how hard and how well you played this game, and I think it's because it was something that just comes naturally to you. You're an incredible person with a natural warmth that just makes people want to trust you. I get that you're not planning on doing one of these again, but I'm really glad you tried it out, because I think it was really special.

Matt: It kind of sucks that you made it so far in the game, because it meant we didn't get a ton of time to hang out. We did at least have the last day to get to hang out and actually talk a bit, but that didn't feel like nearly enough. You're an awesome, charismatic dude, and we need to hang out more. God damn you not being in Baltimore anymore

Brian: I know what I told you I was going to post here in the car, but I thought of something better:

Spoiler:

Oh yeah, and thanks again for the ride. That was a much more fun way to end the meet than unceremoniously flying back.

Everyone - thanks for the incredible time. This meet was a thing of beauty.
