Survivor: Sky Pillar - {SOLE SURVIVOR}

[Mewtwo]

{ROUND EIGHTEEN}

---

Following the Torch Walk Ceremony, Giratina emerged from Distortion World. Seeking torches of fallen castaways, the Renegade Pokémon ransacked the island, collected the relics, and vanished into its own warped reality. For their last challenge, the Final Three had to chase Giratina through Distortion World, competing in a three-part Challenge 21 for the Guiding Champ Medal and Individual Immunity. After some back-and-forth with the remaining members of Platinum,

{Forretress}

chose to sit out, and the challenge erupted into a face-off between his comrades. In the end,

{Toxicroak}

won two of three phases and earned an invitation to the Final Tribal Council.

{TRIBAL COUNCIL EIGHTEEN}

The veil between player and arbiter was quickly dissolving. With Immunity in hand, Toxicroak possessed all the authority in Tribal Council 18. As the final act of castaway control, the Toxic Mouth Pokémon eliminated

{Forretress}

and solidified a Final Tribal Council showdown with Stoutland. The power now shifts to the Jury of seven, who will soon pass judgment on our finalists and declare one of them the Sole Survivor of Sky Pillar.

{FINAL TRIBAL COUNCIL}

---

After two months of competition,

{Stoutland}

and

{Toxicroak}

made the all too familiar trek to Tribal Council together. The power shifted to the seven members of the Jury. It would be up to these players, many of whom the finalists had helped eliminate, to decide which one of them was most deserving of the title of Sole Survivor. The Tribal Council began smoothly with the two competitors' Opening Statements, but soon escalated as the Jury began their inquisition. When all sides had expressed themselves, however, a consensus was reached.

By a vote of

{5}

to

{2}

,

{Toxicroak}

became the winner of

Survivor: Sky Pillar

, and joined Chansey in the Pokèmon Hall of Fame. Congratulations, Stoutland, on a hard-fought game. Congratulations, Toxicroak! You have officially earned the title of Sole Survivor.

i'm just upset i didn't get in the quotes thread tbh

[animorpherv1]

I would like to state one thing that I feel needs to be said in here regarding the spectators. I know someone is going to mention Blackberry and Betch again, however, that was

not

the case. I was getting messages from Betch into Middle Earth, wondering when the next game would start. Betch's decision to watch this game was Betch's and Betch's alone, and was not influenced by Blackberry, who posted once or twice in total.

That said, congratulations to Shiidaji on first place. You really deserve it.

I really loved hosting you all, and would LOVE you all to join

Mass Effect Survivor

(which I'm posting, like, now), if you can fit in the time. You were truly an amazing group, and I couldn't have asked for better.

I would also like to take the time to congratulate Shiidaji, Stoutland, and the entirety of the cast. It was such a privilege to undertake this experience with brilliant co-moderators, and to watch each of you tackle this game head on. The past few weeks have been really hard on me IRL, so even though "thank you" doesn't adequately express my gratitude for your unyielding enthusiasm, I suppose it is a start. The fact that each of you remained so involved in the events of Sky Pillar truly inspired me. You each gave me something to look forward to when, personally, things were starting to crumble. Though my Confessional entries and AIM antics might suggest I only enjoyed stealing away your hopes and dreams {heh} I also took from each of you an unspoken sense of community, and that means so much to me. So yeah, emotions aside, thank you.

Unfortunately, I was not able to complete my post-game analysis prior to all the votes coming in {was somewhat distracted by making all the graphics and getting this thread prepared} but I will continue to work on those entries in my Confessional.

[Cybele]

This was a fantastic game. Serious congratulations are in order for Shii.

[Blackberry]

As far as I can remember: the last time me and Betch spoke directly to each other about anything was long before middle earth even begin. Just ftr.

Congrats to Shiidaji, it's great seeing her back in survivor (and making it past merge), let alone winning. XD

Anyway, as I put in my confessional, I'd like to apologize to everyone involved for my subpar play this round, I'll be back with a vengeance for mass effect.

[Blastoide]

Congratulations, Shii! It was a well deserved win.

Thank you, Kloud and Animorph for creating such a fun game! I enjoyed it immensely.

Time to read EVERYTHING! :3

>never playing survivor again
(My elimination being exactly when I moved into college meant I wasn't paying any attention to the forum after I was booted, either)
(so lol @ everyone)

[DeasVail]

Shiidaji!!!! I'm so glad you won, and you really played very well.

Thanks to the mods for all your effort. The game was extremely fun.

And like Blastoide, I have A LOT of reading to do!

Noooo JDGA you need to play again.

[Crazy]

Congrats Shiidaji. Very well-played; I'm glad you won.

Great game, mods, players, etc.

I am also co-modding Mass Effect Survivor with Ani and Snakes. So join that!

Twinz.

[Jal]

Grats Shiidaji. Well played.

This was a very fun game and I felt that it was well run. Met a lot of good people in this game. I missed talking to my allies the most as they or I were eliminated.

[Cybele]

Jal, I hope we see you more in Mish Mash, or in future Survivors, at least. I'm looking forward to your Confessional (working my way down).

[animorpherv1]

I have to agree. Jal is newbie of the game, hands down.
