he said he would in the excerpt of jury chat posted above to be fair.

I'm pretty confident he'll never vote Danny to win though

Ashlee Smith @ 19/12/2018 11:34

Bryce, 7:23 PM Also I'm glad I can vote Danny to win

Jury Fights:

Sarena, 11:35 AM Oh shit Chris, 11:37 AM Lol right Sarena Chris, 11:37 AM We missed out Sarena, 11:38 AM Wowza Sarena, 11:38 AM Interesting Chris, 11:38 AM I was too busy stanning Sarena on TVParty app I missed the drama Sarena, 11:38 AM I would’ve brought you to the end matt 😉 Chris, 11:39 AM Matthew just wanted to say there are no hard feelings on my end but I am confused what happened that lead to my vote out lol Matthew, 12:33 PM Okay I'm back Matthew, 12:33 PM Sarena Chris lemme get to you two first Alejandro, 12:33 PM welcome back Matthew, 12:35 PM I would’ve brought you to the end matt 😉 In retrospect not tying the vote with you against Danny last round was a mistake. I was overestimating the FTC threat Jess represented at the end of the game, so I was thinking that my only path to a W was by voting her out. It wasn't really until today that I mentally thought through everything and realized that Jess was actually not a completely terrible FTC matchup for me (and was arguably going to be easier than Danny. If I'd won FIC I would have taken Jess over Danny). I'd say that voting you out last round was the biggest strategic blunder I made this game Abby, 12:41 PM not voting Bryce out? Or voting Chris out? Abby, 12:41 PM which you also said were big mistakes you regretted after the fact? Chris, 12:41 PM Not tying for Sarena last round Abby, 12:41 PM I actually don't know I was barely there so sorry if my facts are wrong. Matthew, 12:41 PM Matthew just wanted to say there are no hard feelings on my end but I am confused what happened that lead to my vote out lol Okay, this one is going to get a little weird and will require Bryce to clarify things, and "his actions" as I relate them here are what I heard from Jess/Danny and may not be accurate representations of what actually happened. Let me start with I always wanted you or Bryce to go home at 6, but I also wanted Jess's idol gone to make her vulnerable at 5 (my preferred boot order at the time was you->Jess->Bryce->Sarena, taking Danny to the end). I also knew that Bryce was freaked out about being hit by the idol and was likely going to come for me in the coming rounds, as I knew that he knew that I felt I couldn't beat him in FTC. Basically, I got a call about 10 minutes before TC where Jess basically told me that Bryce had told her and Danny that the only way for her to get dying wish was to idol me out, and the fact that they knew exactly where all of our votes were going to land was a good indication that this was, in fact, the case. As a result, I cut a deal to vote you out, expecting Jess to still play her idol (in retrospect kind of goofy for me to expect). The reason we voted you out over Bryce is that you represented a larger immunity threat. There were probably slightly better ways to handle the round, but given how shortly I had to shift things right before TC (Jess and Danny confirmed to me that had they not talked to me, they would have idoled me out), I didn't really have time to come up with a more creative play. I ended up getting mostly what I wanted out of the next two rounds, and if I hadn't fucked up the F4 IC (I would have had a 10 minute or so faster time if I hadn't made a clerical error b/c I knew where the exit was from reading the map but got confused when the path didn't exist and didn't adjust for it well), Jess would have 100% gone at 4 (Danny told me he would have done Jess at 4, and given how drunk he was at the time I don't think he was lying). Chris, 12:41 PM Oh jk I misunderstood Matthew, 12:42 PM Alternatively, see my post on the Sarena boot about how I should have flipped back there anyways Abby, 12:43 PM It's convenient to be able to say that now Abby, 12:43 PM so. Matthew, 12:43 PM See my above post about what happened the Chris round Matthew, 12:43 PM I was going for a Lexi->Chris->Jess->Bryce->Sarena boot order once I started flipping back and forth Chris, 12:44 PM I mean yeah if Bryce or I won immunity at f6 I would’ve tried to get you out lol so I couldn’t be mad Abby, 12:44 PM Matt stop making it sound like you controlled the whole game, because there are like, a decent number of other people who were involved in making things happen. Abby, 12:44 PM It wasn't all you. Abby, 12:44 PM Just because you voted with the numbers doesn't mean you were controlling things, you were just a pawn of Jess/Danny. Abby, 12:44 PM I'm so tired of your cocky knowitall bullshit Chris, 12:44 PM When Danny told me that you immediately threw me under the bus after the final 7 vote I was pretty done Chris, 12:45 PM But obv I didn’t have much sway at that point Matthew, 12:47 PM Just because you voted with the numbers doesn't mean you were controlling things, you were just a pawn of Jess/Danny. Eh I don't think so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I didn't get to execute my vision perfectly, but at the end of the day I was the only person on the right side of every vote until F3, and I got the F5 that I wanted in the process Abby, 12:47 PM Of course you don't think so, but look who's in the F2. Matthew, 12:47 PM Obviously I'm going to showboat a bit because Survivor is performative and you need credit for shit Abby, 12:47 PM You showboat way too much Abby, 12:47 PM It's really fucking grating. Abby, 12:47 PM And I say this as someone who showboats. Matthew, 12:47 PM again, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Abby, 12:48 PM You're always acting like you're the only one who's smart enough to be here and that's not true Abby, 12:48 PM You did that the whole Capture The Flag Abby, 12:48 PM anytime somone brought up an idea that wasn't yours you'd shoot it down immediately Abby, 12:48 PM you'd be like "well tha's not awful" Abby, 12:48 PM while every idea you had was a work of genius Abby, 12:48 PM That's the kind of bullshit I'm talking about Abby, 12:48 PM And that's why I can't stand you Matthew, 12:48 PM ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Sarena, 12:48 PM Shhhhh I keep being brought to the bottom of the chat and I havnt read it all yet Abby, 12:49 PM Matt thinks he's so much smarter than he actuallyo is Abby, 12:49 PM I guarantee I could walk circles around you Matt Abby, 12:49 PM get off your fucking high horse Abby, 12:49 PM I'm so tired of mediocre men acting like they're god's gift to the universe Abby, 12:49 PM Jesus fucking chris Abby, 12:49 PM leaving that typo too good Chris, 12:49 PM WHO IS FUCKING ME??? Abby, 12:49 PM Jesus Alejandro, 12:50 PM Jesus Abby, 12:50 PM God you're so mediocre Matt, you're lucky Jess carried your lame-ass all the way to the end because that's the only way you were going to make finals when you're so aggressively unlikeable as a human Abby, 12:50 PM And I mean that in terms of the game because I only know you btiches in terms of the game Abby, 12:50 PM I don't know who you are in real life. Alejandro, 12:51 PM Abby did say Matt was a genuinely nice person who wouldn't gout of his way to hurt other people yesterday tho Alejandro, 12:51 PM #positivity Abby, 12:51 PM Oh I do agree with that, Matt I wanted to vote for you over the other two Abby, 12:51 PM because I felt like you were the only one who didn't do shitty asshole moves the whole way, you were just playing the game Abby, 12:52 PM you never aspired to be nasty or mean, like I do. Abby, 12:52 PM And that's something I can respect no matter how you got there. Abby, 12:52 PM And not something I can say about Jess or Danny. Alejandro, 12:53 PM summary: matt regrets voting you out, and thinks it was his biggest mistake. Jess/Danny calaled him ten minutes before the chris vote with a lot of info and saying they would idol him so he flipped. Matt shrugged at Abby coming for him like five times. Chris, 12:54 PM @Matt how did you plan to get me out at 6 while still pulling out the idol Chris, 12:54 PM Assuming they don’t win immunity, I guess Matthew, 12:54 PM @Matt how did you plan to get me out at 6 while still pulling out the idol Originally I was hoping that Jess/Danny would just idol assuming we were all voting Jess. I didn't expect them to find out that the plan was for you to throw your vote away on Sarena Matthew, 12:55 PM oh if they didnt win immunity? Chris, 12:55 PM Yeah I told them so that they would have less incentive to vote me Chris, 12:55 PM didn’t really work lol Matthew, 12:55 PM Yeah I told them so that they would have less incentive to vote me Wait it was YOU that sold it out and not Bryce? Matthew, 12:55 PM or did you both do it? Abby, 12:55 PM Matt's too afraid of me to engage me Abby, 12:55 PM I love it Abby, 12:55 PM Say what you really feel about me Matt Matthew, 12:55 PM Matt's too afraid of me to engage me No, I just no that there isn't anything productive for me to say Chris, 12:56 PM I said I wouldn’t be voting Jess Chris, 12:56 PM Bryce told them the plan but he asked me if he should do it first Abby, 12:56 PM "I'm sorry Abby for being such a dick all the time during the challenges" Abby, 12:56 PM LMAOO Matthew, 12:56 PM I don't hate you as a person, and I am a bit baffled that you hate me with SUCH PASSION for what I perceive to be relatively minor things. I don't need your validation about my person when I've made some great connections with people in this game, and the fact that we don't connect is fine Sarena, 12:56 PM Can the ppl he’s specifically talking about respond first lol Matthew, 12:56 PM I'm not going to apologize for shotcalling challenges that nobody was stepping up to take leadership on Matthew, 12:57 PM because we broke the record on the cube puzzle, we broke the record on Keep Talking, destroyed the Produce challenge (where I took on some leadership), and won CTF (and I don't think your assessment of me constantly shooting down people's ideas is fair. A number of our moves came from other people and I was focused more on keeping discussion moving because the first few moves everyone was really silent) Abby, 12:57 PM no one wanted you to shot call, it's collaborative Matthew, 12:58 PM You need a shotcaller Abby, 12:58 PM You didn't read instructions during Keep Talking and literally we had problems because of that Abby, 12:58 PM So stop acting like you never fucked up Matthew, 12:58 PM someone to at least facilitate discussions Abby, 12:58 PM no one wanted you to do that Matt! Matthew, 12:58 PM Im not saying I did every challenge perfectly Abby, 12:58 PM You just appointed yourself leader when no one watned that Matthew, 12:58 PM Well nobody else did it! Abby, 12:58 PM because you muscled your way into doing it and no one else had a shot Matthew, 12:58 PM and every move in CTF turning like the first few where nobody spoke for the first 5 minutes Matthew, 12:58 PM was not somethign I was going to let happen Abby, 12:58 PM you talked over other people, you didn't listen to Bryce when he told you to do the toilet paper the other way at least 5 times. Abby, 12:59 PM You're stubborn and you steamroll, and you were miserable to work with as a team Abby, 12:59 PM You never listened to me, I never felt heard around you Matthew, 12:59 PM you talked over other people, you didn't listen to Bryce when he told you to do the toilet paper the other way at least 5 times. Yes this challenge I legitimately sucked at, sorry Abby, 12:59 PM It was just what Matt wants to do because he's a genius and his way is the smartest way possible by default Abby, 12:59 PM And that's really insulting to me personally, tbh Abby, 12:59 PM because you always were acting like you were better and smarter than me and you're not bitch Matthew, 12:59 PM I'm sorry that you didn't feel heard, that's a failure on the part of my leadership Abby, 1:00 PM you're not a good leader matt Abby, 1:00 PM I'm sorry, you're not Abby, 1:00 PM You should take the backseat Matthew, 1:00 PM But I don't regret taking leadership roles when nobody else would Abby, 1:00 PM That's fine, but you were a horrible leader Abby, 1:00 PM you shouldn't have done it Abby, 1:00 PM I can't believe Lachesis did as well as it did with you fucking shit up Matthew, 1:00 PM ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Abby, 1:01 PM my only regret is not throwing a challenge to vote you out xoxox Alejandro, 1:01 PM https://65.media.tumblr.com/bb0c7f05ceef8127389e17339342878a/tumblr_inline_o91qj9fHoq1sk31oq_500.gif Abby, 1:01 PM btich we've all been waiting weeks for this day I'm allowed to go off Matthew, 1:02 PM It's fine Alejandro, 1:02 PM (its a bb reference, after a super heated fight libra asks people if anybody wants cake <3) Matthew, 1:02 PM I really don't care Chris, 1:04 PM I did come away from the CTF challenge feeling very frustrated, because it felt like anything I said was second rate. But also noted that Matt had a lot of good suggestions. It did feel like I had to wait for three minutes of rambling and then afterwards Jess and I were able to get a word in. Abby, 1:05 PM oh he cares he's just saying that to spite me Chris, 1:05 PM Tbh tho I came away from that challenge most pissed at Danny because all his suggestions were awful lol Matthew, 1:05 PM Tbf Danny was trying to lose Chris, 1:05 PM Danny was trying to go to bed Matthew, 1:07 PM I did come away from the CTF challenge feeling very frustrated, because it felt like anything I said was second rate. But also noted that Matt had a lot of good suggestions. It did feel like I had to wait for three minutes of rambling and then afterwards Jess and I were able to get a word in. Thank you for the (constructive) feedback on this. Abby, 1:07 PM You only like feedback that strokes your ego Matt Chris, 1:07 PM That’s everyone lol Abby, 1:07 PM oh honey I love haters Abby, 1:08 PM ANYWAYS I'm driving home now so, get your assholery in now Matt while I'm gone for half an hour. Abby, 1:09 PM I don't want to make you a better person Matt Abby, 1:09 PM I just want to be mean. Matthew, 1:10 PM I don't want to make you a better person Matt Well I want to be a better person so this entire chain of interaction makes sense Chris, 1:12 PM I haven’t watched Tribal yet but did it seem like Jess and Danny were always going to take each other to the end no matter what? Matthew, 1:12 PM Jess did what she thought would give her the better chance to win Matthew, 1:13 PM Danny didn't seem to want to go up against Jess (not sure how authentic that was), and I was overestimating the FTC threat Jess represented so I bought into it Matthew, 1:13 PM In retrospect that was just a massive miscalculation on my part, and there were a few other things I could have done Chris, 1:13 PM How are you leaning as of now Matthew, 1:13 PM Not so much learning as much as I didn't stop to think? Chris, 1:14 PM I mean for your jury vote Matthew, 1:14 PM oh Matthew, 1:14 PM undecided af Matthew, 1:14 PM I think both have merits to their games and want to see how they frame things at FTC Matthew, 1:14 PM for as shady as they both were during this game, they actually didn't really do me dirty that much? Chris, 1:14 PM Well why would they have haha Matthew, 1:15 PM true Chris, 1:16 PM To me just looking at the game on paper it seems like Danny always had the upper hand on Jess, with Final 9 being the main clincher for that Matthew, 1:16 PM Flip side: Jess always had options of other ways to play the game, Danny didn't Matthew, 1:16 PM well, after Clotho at least Matthew, 1:16 PM Jess was 100% at Danny's mercy on Clotho from what I gathered Chris, 1:17 PM Oh yeah and Danny outplayed her on original Clotho too Chris, 1:17 PM Jess I feel like was only kept safe until final 9 because of Alex, and then after that she sat on her idol. Chris, 1:17 PM And then it seems like she made the wrong call here Alejandro, 1:18 PM pro jess: she never needed to make up unnecessary lies (she was not honest, but her lies were more necessary to advance while danny's were for no reason) Chris, 1:18 PM And Danny forcing Jess to get Alex out made her much more reliant on him and way improved his spot Matthew, 1:18 PM Counter-take Matthew, 1:19 PM Danny is gone at 7 if he loses the IC Matthew, 1:19 PM I was never actually taking the shot at Jess Matthew, 1:19 PM b/c I needed that idol in the game for a middle to still exist Chris, 1:20 PM I preferred Lexi out there over Danny at that point Chris, 1:20 PM I think Bryce did too? Matthew, 1:20 PM maybe/probably? Matthew, 1:20 PM but if I said "let's do Danny" would you guys have really objected? Matthew, 1:20 PM especially with Sarena also pushing it? Chris, 1:21 PM Fair Chris, 1:21 PM He also was never losing that challenge lol Matthew, 1:21 PM true Matthew, 1:21 PM it was an unfortunate spot for it to be that challenge Matthew, 1:21 PM from that perspective Matthew, 1:21 PM my challenge performances this game were ughhhhhh Matthew, 1:21 PM 2nd place in SO MANY Matthew, 1:22 PM well 2nd/3rd Chris, 1:22 PM Also I feel like you're in a worse spot if Danny goes there Chris, 1:22 PM Because maybe I'm wrong but I think Bryce and I were closer with Lexi than you were at that point Chris, 1:22 PM Not that this matters at all Matthew, 1:23 PM maybe? Matthew, 1:23 PM Lexi woudl have to speak to that Chris, 1:23 PM tru Lexi, 1:23 PM Speak to what Chris, 1:23 PM hi lexi Matthew, 1:23 PM Oh hey Lexi, 1:23 PM Hey boys Matthew, 1:23 PM what u do after F7 if Danny loses immunity and he gets blindsided instead of u Matthew, 1:24 PM Since I probably would have pushed for that had Danny lost the IC Anders, 1:24 PM Danny was the player always making strategic plans, Jess was just the one to sit around and wait Lexi, 1:24 PM I was close to jess and Chris the most so try something with them Chris, 1:24 PM ayyy Chris, 1:24 PM rip me Chris, 1:24 PM i dont know if that makes me happy or sad lol Lexi, 1:25 PM Chris used those fall in love questions and it got me Lexi, 1:25 PM And then he ripped my heart out Chris, 1:25 PM ugh i shouldve just flipped at f8 or f7 rip Matthew, 1:26 PM ugh i shouldve just flipped at f8 or f7 rip Oh my god if this happens this game looks so fucking different Chris, 1:39 PM remember the church of wump Chris, 1:39 PM what a solid alliance that very much succeeded Alejandro, 1:39 PM I mean... three members made f4 Alejandro, 1:40 PM best alliance name wasted Alejandro, 1:40 PM I waited the whole game to put it in a good alliance Chris, 1:40 PM it was made at f10 and eliminated someone lol so we had a 6/9 shot Alejandro, 1:40 PM and then Chris, 1:40 PM Passion, Fluids, & Friction was the best alliance name I was a part of Vic, 1:40 PM Alejandro said put it in ha ha ha Vic, 1:41 PM Do not act unamused by my jokes Alexis Vic, 1:42 PM Yous only get one more day with me before I'm gone forever Vic, 1:42 PM Enjoy it Matthew, 1:42 PM The me/Jess/Danny alliance was called the "Not Kilby" alliance b/c Kilby accidentally thought it was once of his game chats when he was added to it Edited an above post to this so now it makes no sense woops Chris, 1:42 PM ......forever? ;( Bryce, 1:46 PM Matthew I told Jess in final 6 because you literally told me to. We've been over this. Bryce, 1:46 PM Why you flipped after telling me to do that made no sense Bryce, 1:47 PM And now that you explained yourself and said you asked Jess to still play the idol baffles me Bryce, 1:47 PM You were a strategic player. But that's easily the worst play of the entire game imo Chris, 1:47 PM yeah haha it was very silly to expect jess to play the idol if you ever said you were voting with her Bryce, 1:47 PM I don't care when you wanted me out. That sealed your fate. Bryce, 1:47 PM If anything, you played her exactly as you should have and you could have been a HERO for her not playing it and getting voted out Matthew, 1:47 PM I don't care when you wanted me out. That sealed your fate. I probably did objectively misplay that round but I was also very close to being idoled out. Saying that it sealed my fate is a bit of an exaggeration Chris, 1:48 PM and then voting sarena at f5 just felt like you were actively trying to make yourself a jury goat Matthew, 1:48 PM If anything, you played her exactly as you should have and you could have been a HERO for her not playing it and getting voted out I didnt want you and Chris together at F4, which Jess going home there guaranteed Bryce, 1:48 PM You got paranoid and, to quote what you called me, "frantic" and you lost 3 people the game Bryce, 1:48 PM YOU NEEDED THE IDOL OUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT Matthew, 1:48 PM and then voting sarena at f5 just felt like you were actively trying to make yourself a jury goat Oh this was to flip on Danny if they didn't have the idol Matthew, 1:48 PM while still having plausible deniability Bryce, 1:48 PM I don't give a single shit who needed to go where. You knew Chris was going home. Just be a man and admit it Chris, 1:49 PM but like why not just vote them then lol Matthew, 1:49 PM I don't give a single shit who needed to go where. You knew Chris was going home. Just be a man and admit it I did yes Matthew, 1:49 PM I fucked you and Chris over that round Matthew, 1:49 PM 100% Bryce, 1:49 PM AND Sarena Bryce, 1:49 PM AND yourself Lexi, 1:49 PM Should of voted jess over me to kill the idol Bryce, 1:49 PM You single handedly gave Jess a pass to the final tribal Bryce, 1:50 PM Should of voted jess over me to kill the idol You should have flipped earlier to give yourself a shot to win and not get voted out Lexi, 1:50 PM I thought Bryce was nice Chris, 1:50 PM If Jess goes there Matt you don't think Danny sides with you and Sarena? Matthew, 1:50 PM I thought Bryce was nice Hey is Matthew, 1:50 PM If Jess goes there Matt you don't think Danny sides with you and Sarena? Do Sarena and Danny work together? Bryce, 1:50 PM I am nice Chris, 1:50 PM I thought they would if you were middleman Bryce, 1:51 PM But you're telling me what I should have done or what we should have done and you're not taking any of your own gameplay into account of why you lost Chris, 1:51 PM Maybe that's naive Alejandro, 1:51 PM without jess dannywould have sided with anyone he needed Lexi, 1:51 PM Yes I am Bryce wtf Matthew, 1:52 PM without jess dannywould have sided with anyone he needed Sarena would also have to have been on board Matthew, 1:52 PM which, again, I didn't trust Sarena, 1:52 PM I would’ve some what? Sarena, 1:52 PM Done* Alejandro, 1:52 PM Sarena is super intelligent, I feel she would do what she needed to advance further? Matthew, 1:52 PM I would’ve some what? worked with me/danny at 5 if Jess went at 6 Matthew, 1:52 PM versus sticking with Chris/Bryce Alejandro, 1:52 PM OH Alejandro, 1:53 PM vs chris and Bryce, i missed that part Alejandro, 1:53 PM nvm Chris, 1:53 PM lmao Sarena, 1:53 PM Oh for sure no lmao. Chris, 1:53 PM lol rip Alejandro, 1:53 PM omg a sarena, chris, Bryce f3 would have made me so happy Matthew, 1:53 PM VINDICATION Matthew, 1:54 PM omg a sarena, chris, Bryce f3 would have made me so happy THIS IS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO AVOID Sarena, 1:54 PM Why are you telling Sarena, 1:54 PM Yelling Matthew, 1:54 PM fair Alejandro, 1:54 PM you ruined all my desires :'( Matthew, 1:55 PM Does Danny get all butt hurt and wrote his manifesto still? Manifesto had already happened Chris, 1:55 PM It's post-that Sarena, 1:55 PM Oh Sarena, 1:55 PM Then I would’ve worked with Matt but never danny. Chris, 1:55 PM so what we're saying is that danny writing the manifesto actually secured him final two... 5D Chess Matthew, 1:56 PM Then I would’ve worked with Matt but never danny. Yeah and at that F5 Chris/Bryce never break up Matthew, 1:56 PM So Danny could maybe work with them to vote out Sarena or me (although w/o Jess there I probably win that IC unless Chris does?) Sarena, 1:56 PM I image y’all would’ve taken each other out and Danny would still make it to the end Chris, 1:56 PM I mean I wanted Bryce out pretty ASAP Sarena, 1:57 PM Idk what we are trying to conclude lol Chris, 1:57 PM me either Lexi, 1:57 PM When Danny made a f3 chat with me and Chris I said to him you know Chris is going to win right? Please don’t add me to stuff without my consent Chris, 1:57 PM lol Matthew, 1:57 PM I image y’all would’ve taken each other out and Danny would still make it to the end yes Chris, 1:58 PM the final 3 chat that had 2 messages in it Lexi, 1:58 PM Yeah best alliance by far Lexi, 1:58 PM That’s the round I left Matthew, 1:58 PM Honestly if I thought I had a better chance vs Jess (or had realized it sooner) I would have done a kill-the-goat on Danny too Chris, 1:58 PM MAYBE IF YOU TALKED IN IT YOU WOULDNT HAVE LEFT ;( Alejandro, 1:58 PM omg lexi telling danny off <3 Lexi, 1:58 PM I always got mad at Danny. He was a very unstable game player Lexi, 1:59 PM And alliance member Bryce, 1:59 PM I mean I wanted Bryce out pretty ASAP Excuse me? Chris, 1:59 PM I couldn't make the end with you!!!!!! Chris, 1:59 PM you crush me!!!!!!! Chris, 1:59 PM lol Bryce, 1:59 PM No. You get Naomi, Lexi, Danny votes locked Lexi, 2:00 PM Yeah they had #teambryce in the jury title Chris, 2:00 PM ^ Chris, 2:00 PM lol Matthew, 2:00 PM Yeah Bryce you crushed literally everyone in FTC Alejandro, 2:00 PM that was my doing Matthew, 2:00 PM I was actually shocked when you were taken aback when I said I knew I couldn't beat you Matthew, 2:00 PM that you didn't understand how loved you were in this game Chris, 2:00 PM You get Abby, Jess, Alex, Matt, Sarena. Chris, 2:00 PM Probably Danny Chris, 2:00 PM Maybe not abby Matthew, 2:04 PM Honestly Matthew, 2:04 PM in retrospect Matthew, 2:04 PM I should have tried to get Jess to idol me at 8 Matthew, 2:04 PM that was another option Abby, 2:04 PM for the record, I would've 100% voted for Bryce in the final Bryce. Bryce and Chris were my top two picks, Bryce, 2:05 PM No i understand Bryce. But if I went with Naomi and Chris I would of gotten crushed. They were everyone favs everyone loved them lol So all I was meaning is you can't say we should have done something different. The choice to vote you out made the most sense at the time. Yes, after she didn't play it we wished we voted her, but that's easy to say. All day we debated you or her Lexi, 2:06 PM But Matt knew jess wasn’t playing the idol because she believed he was with us Lexi, 2:06 PM I tried all day to get jess to play her idol on one of us Lexi, 2:06 PM She was very stingy with her idol :( Sam, 2:07 PM devon was the true winner of this season i'm crowning him tomorrow night Lexi, 2:14 PM The only think jack had going for him was his looks tbh Lexi, 2:14 PM Thing Jayden, 2:14 PM Jack is beautiful Matthew, 2:14 PM Man this sure would have been a crappy season if JAKE made the merge! Matthew, 2:14 PM instead of me Bryce, 2:14 PM Jake is the man Alejandro, 2:14 PM imagine how different that would have been Matthew, 2:15 PM Hey remember that time he did 0 work on a challenge so Sarena and I put in a combined 25 or so hours? Matthew, 2:15 PM That was REALLY COOL of him Sam, 2:15 PM and his one anders confessional Jayden, 2:15 PM and his one anders confessional best confessional of the game Sam, 2:15 PM hands down best confessional of the game Stephen, 2:15 PM Jack actually had a redemption arc storyline going on, he was one of the most compelling characters in the game with a lot of traction to do big things if he made the merg Stephen, 2:15 PM e Stephen, 2:15 PM wish we woulda got to see it Stephen, 2:15 PM but COCKROACH SAID NO Matthew, 2:16 PM hands down best confessional of the game Not the one of mine that got taken down from Youtube b/c I had a mental breakdown for 12 minutes? Abby, 2:16 PM oh Matt I designed that whole board I carried y'all Abby, 2:16 PM I got 1's across the board. Matthew, 2:16 PM oh Matt I designed that whole board I carried y'all ur graphics were amazing Abby, 2:16 PM THEEENKS Abby, 2:16 PM aw thanks Matt Abby, 2:16 PM TBH I thought you were gonna fuck it up so bad, but you did something cool. Abby, 2:16 PM I was like, well this is pointless Matt is gonna lose this for us, he's gonna go really high concept and it's not gonna work out and it's just gonna be a mess. Matthew, 2:16 PM Writing that flavor text was maybe my favorite thing in this game Abby, 2:17 PM And like, I was fully expecting that the whole time. Abby, 2:17 PM And then I like, looked at it after the fact, like recently. Abby, 2:17 PM And I was like "ok I was wrong" Matthew, 2:17 PM And like, I was fully expecting that the whole time. So the me 2 years ago would have done that and you can ask Naomi about how that goes! Abby, 2:17 PM Abby has strong opinions but is always open to changing them if presented with a better argument. Matthew, 2:18 PM it did not go over well Anders, 4:44 PM Some may argue that advantageous position is a Matt thing, but it wasn’t funny when he did it 12 times in the chat Abby, 4:44 PM LMAO Anders, 4:45 PM Am I wrong? Anders, 4:48 PM Speaking of getting fucked, Atropos deserved better in this game Abby, 4:48 PM amen Anders, 4:49 PM Cloth-oh my god I hate them so much amirite Chris, 4:52 PM we were cursed when we voted ceejae Anders, 4:55 PM Honestly I wish we had seen Sequester first so that we sent Jenn out instead Chris, 5:01 PM if ceejae stays past round 1 i probably wouldve ended up sheeping her Abby, 5:05 PM I only wish Jack hadn't bailed on a challenge u no Abby, 5:06 PM like I wish I had met Real Jack Abby, 5:06 PM I just met Jake Abby, 5:06 PM he seems dope tho.

Honestly, I’ve been on a jury with Bryce. He is insufferable and bitter as fuck. This game is the most grace he’s ever shown.

Also I want to give credit to Matthew because I just finally watched that Jessaca & Matthew call, and I feel like he was about as bang on regarding his perception of the jury. He was super aware of how everybody would swing and nailed the whole "Danny was sketchy, but he advertised that and expectations are a huge factor". His pitch was great and he was super classy, and now that he's in the jury he's been fantastic. Abby has been coming for him hardcore and he totally diffused the situation without turning the jury chat into some huge brawl, while also deflecting some shit coming from Bryce too.

Being the Final Juror is rough as hell, but he's handled it like a champ. Matthew is great.

Jayden Osborne @ 18/12/2018 23:45

Michael 'Vic' Vicario @ 19/12/2018 13:23 I'm pretty confident he'll never vote Danny to win though Ashlee Smith @ 19/12/2018 11:34 Bryce, 7:23 PM Also I'm glad I can vote Danny to win

Ok I know he said that in the jury but he's told me differently in private so well see

ok probably my final post, overall I want to congratulate all of the players, you made my first experience as a viewer a great one, you all played great!

Ugh Danny is my irl friend but I have to say I really want Jess to win, I called the first day he would either be first boot or make the end, and he made it. However, I think Jess played a great game and has been probably my favorite for probably most of the game, so with that I really hope she wins

Obviously anything said in here is strictly game related and nothing personal. I want to thank all of the players for dedicating so much time to this game and helping make it a great season to watch and host. I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

Echoed, thank you to the whole cast for a great, great season. You're all stars.

i hated you all equally, except Naomi. She was fantastic and the undeserved gem of the season.

Jordan, 2:10 PM I always root for Jess Jordan, 2:10 PM she's too fucking good Vic, 2:11 PM I also think she should've taken Matt Ned, 2:11 PM if what people said in public holds chris/bryce/anders/abby will vote danny and like naomi is 100% jess with others leaning towards her Ned, 2:11 PM apparently bryce might actually not thoug Jordan, 2:11 PM I'm excited for questioning Ned, 2:13 PM lmao at the quotes he has on his wall btw, i never noticed them before Jordan, 2:13 PM now danny's camera is off Vic, 2:14 PM yeah we were trying to fix it before we went live Vic, 2:14 PM is jess' working fine? Kilby, 2:14 PM yea Paige, 2:15 PM lmao at the quotes he has on his wall btw, i never noticed them before that's cuz he was at school most of the season, he went home yesterday or monday Kilby, 2:16 PM if danny wins with this speech Kilby, 2:16 PM like Kilby, 2:16 PM this is the worst Ned, 2:16 PM "while jess didn't have to worry about leaving until final 6 i was a target since swap when i rubbed people the wrong way" Ned, 2:17 PM winner quote right there lads? (/s) Jordan, 2:17 PM i mean i feel like jess was a target all game no? Kilby, 2:17 PM yea she just didnt get votes Jordan, 2:18 PM Jess sent Anders home single handedly which made her one of the most visible targets Paige, 2:18 PM true Ashlee, 2:19 PM wow these technical issues tonight Ashlee, 2:24 PM these jurors acting like their shit don't stink is honestly annoying Vic, 2:25 PM agreed Ashlee, 2:25 PM Matt keeps commenting about how much better he would have been Paige, 2:25 PM ugh matt Ned, 2:25 PM is the jury chat annoying Ned, 2:25 PM sad Ashlee, 2:25 PM very Kilby, 2:26 PM matt is being awful lol Kilby, 2:26 PM so is everyone tbh Ned, 2:26 PM damn it i wondered when it would set in Vic, 2:26 PM they're talking about jess being manipulative because she's mentioning she's upset about the alex vote lol Jordan, 2:26 PM she is allowed to be upset with a friend leaving even if she voted them... Jordan, 2:27 PM like you're allowed to not like the decision but still have to do it to better your game Tyler Poirier, 2:27 PM Unfortunately I think the mood of the jury chat was set to be bitter early on and I think it's gotten everyone into a nit-picky mood Kilby, 2:27 PM they were like Kilby, 2:27 PM "shes muted, LOL so cringe" Kilby, 2:27 PM to show how bitter they were Jayden, 2:27 PM im not able to watch atm so thank you for the updates Jayden, 2:28 PM matthew wouldve given the single worst tribal council speech ever i know it Joe, 2:28 PM I disagree. Joe, 2:28 PM I know matt's philosophy on FTCs, and I understand why he absolutely hated both of these. Ned, 2:28 PM it would have been very very eloquent and contained nearly every wrong piece of information possible imo\ Jayden, 2:28 PM did you see him in rites of passage? Tyler Poirier, 2:28 PM Alex isn't being too bad in the jury chat but he also was late to the party Kilby, 2:28 PM calling her over emotional, lol Joe, 2:29 PM Both were reading from bullet points, both still managed to ramble, and both talked about stuff every juror pretty much could've inferred. Kilby, 2:29 PM She's trying to cut off any of us from saying anything mean though. So it's still strategic that she's playing that up. Jordan, 2:29 PM i'm loving the nbcsports in vic's background tbh Kilby, 2:29 PM like what? Joe, 2:29 PM Matt is overconfident but I'm certain he would've had a polished, well thought-through FTC. Jayden, 2:29 PM bryce is my least favourite juror next to anders Ashlee, 2:30 PM oh no, anders, matt and abby are all awful Ashlee, 2:30 PM for various reasons Ned, 2:30 PM i'm so glad i can't see this ayyyyy Jordan, 2:30 PM i text alex who is winning and he said no idea Kilby, 2:30 PM matt was good Kilby, 2:30 PM until like Kilby, 2:31 PM 5 mins ago Ashlee, 2:31 PM basically until it started matt was fine Kilby, 2:31 PM abby and especially anders Kilby, 2:31 PM are the worst Ned, 2:31 PM they ruined the roundtable tbh lol Ned, 2:32 PM i dislike abby's "i'm not going to be a fake bitch" routine Paige, 2:33 PM wow Joey, 2:33 PM These people need to get a grip Paige, 2:34 PM who is going to be the closer from jury? Kilby, 2:35 PM matt, lol Vic, 2:35 PM i have no idea why abby is so bitter Vic, 2:35 PM other than being stuck with anders for weeks Kilby, 2:35 PM anders Paige, 2:35 PM oh my this look on abby isn't good Kilby, 2:35 PM yea this is terrible Joey, 2:35 PM Such sore losers lol Jordan, 2:36 PM are they all going to try being like this Kilby, 2:36 PM yeep Ashlee, 2:36 PM I don't think all of them Ned, 2:36 PM serena/alex/naomi should be ok Joey, 2:36 PM Also like Abby got voted out a year ago aren't you over it yet sis Ashlee, 2:36 PM i think alex will b e fine Ashlee, 2:36 PM sarena will probably have words for danny Kilby, 2:36 PM theres a few good ones Vic, 2:36 PM they wont all be like this Vic, 2:36 PM mostly just anders and abby i think Kilby, 2:36 PM most of them though Kilby, 2:36 PM bryce too Ashlee, 2:36 PM naomi is so loveable she wouldn't be able to be mean Vic, 2:37 PM i really dont think bryce will be too bad Kilby, 2:37 PM hes talking it up Kilby, 2:37 PM but apparently hes dif to vic in dms Kilby, 2:37 PM so who knows Joey, 2:37 PM So basically it's last seasons jury. A few bad seeds of irrational bitterness sprinkled in with rational humans Kilby, 2:37 PM yea Ned, 2:37 PM my guess is naomi is basically 30 seconds of "hi i love you both, i love jess more, bye" Kilby, 2:37 PM pretty much Vic, 2:37 PM yes thats whats causing this to be an unpredicatble winner Ashlee, 2:37 PM ya naomi has no idea what to say Kilby, 2:38 PM tis basically how much anders seeds work, i think? Kilby, 2:38 PM like theyre legit just trying to manipulate the jury lol Kilby, 2:38 PM abby....never malicious Kilby, 2:38 PM OK Ned, 2:38 PM abby clearly never said anything mean to serena lol Jordan, 2:39 PM i don't understand why she's spending all this time to talk about herself Jordan, 2:39 PM is she going to get to fucking questions Paige, 2:39 PM abby "basically I let anders get into my head" Kilby, 2:39 PM ^ Vic, 2:39 PM she stated that she already knows how shes voting Vic, 2:39 PM so this is just putting on a show i think Ned, 2:39 PM she said she isnt asking anything ya Kilby, 2:40 PM like why is she talking Jordan, 2:40 PM this is annoying Paige, 2:40 PM Jordan she said no questions cuz she doesn't care what they say and she has already made up her mind Jordan, 2:40 PM i'm working on stuff so thanks paige :) Paige, 2:40 PM im a slow typer sorry they both beat me to saying it :( Jordan, 2:40 PM well your response is the only one that matters Paige, 2:41 PM thanks Jordan <3 Daniel, 2:41 PM :o Jordan, 2:41 PM is jess tearing up? Paige, 2:41 PM Daniel! Daniel, 2:41 PM Hi! Paige, 2:42 PM omg I love jess Ned, 2:43 PM id be crying too tbh Jordan, 2:43 PM i feel like jess played this off amazing Paige, 2:44 PM wow how abby has changed Vic, 2:44 PM i was not expecting this turn of events Paige, 2:44 PM same vic Kilby, 2:44 PM its because she never actually had anything against jess. Vic, 2:44 PM right Kilby, 2:44 PM shockingly Ned, 2:44 PM "wow i had some good lines here" Joe, 2:45 PM ugh at abby not being able to push through honestly Vic, 2:46 PM Chris, 11:45 PM wow jess is really winning abby over huh Chris, 11:45 PM good for her Joe, 2:46 PM jess obviously did hurt her in the moment. but now jess is able to cry away all these problems in this moment. Kilby, 2:47 PM Yeah, I'm not buying into anything these two are selling Kilby, 2:47 PM bryce back to being wonderful Ashlee, 2:47 PM @ naomi fans, she's up next Kilby, 2:47 PM don't be cheap bryce Joe, 2:47 PM what's worse: bitter jury or bitter viewers hmmmmm Daniel, 2:49 PM Well when Survivor is a social experiment people should be allowed to feel bitter about someone else doing better than them right Paige, 2:49 PM the viewers don't have influence on the game as its happening so bitter jury is worse Daniel, 2:50 PM like maybe don’t make people feel bitter against you?? 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️ Joe, 2:50 PM ^^^ Ned, 2:50 PM i'm perfectly fine with bitterness as a whole to an extent yes. Kilby, 2:50 PM ^ Joe, 2:51 PM just not when it gets in the way of gamebottiness and perfect pawns? Daniel, 2:51 PM What do you mean by that Ned, 2:51 PM i mean that i'm not against these jurors mostly, no Kilby, 2:52 PM bitterness is fine if its authentic Kilby, 2:52 PM put on bitterness is super blah Ned, 2:52 PM i'm complaining about them because they annoy me, not because bitterness should be eradicated from the game of survivor Paige, 2:52 PM people are human you are never going to completely get rid of bitterness Daniel, 2:53 PM I guess my random points about bitterness stems from being a horribly bitter juror in some instances, and a very understanding juror in others. I think Jess played a way better strategic game than Danny, right? So like, what’s the reason for people not voting for her if they end up voting for Danny? Because they don’t want her to win? Kilby, 2:54 PM uh anders mostly Daniel, 2:54 PM he mostly...what? Daniel, 2:54 PM I’m not like trying to be a bitch I genuinely don’t know lol Ashlee, 2:54 PM i don't mind bitterness as long as there is still some sense of rationalization to it Kilby, 2:54 PM and like shes not the best at straight jury management Kilby, 2:54 PM but like Ashlee, 2:54 PM and I think it's gone across that line a few times Kilby, 2:54 PM danny is the worst at it Kilby, 2:54 PM yea Kilby, 2:54 PM its like honestly? Kilby, 2:54 PM anders is bitter that he had no impact Daniel, 2:55 PM yikes Joe, 2:55 PM and that's honestly fine. Kilby, 2:55 PM and decided to poison jury lol Kilby, 2:55 PM to show he had impact Jordan, 2:55 PM i hope anders gets red again tonight Jordan, 2:55 PM but like poisoning the jury is gross Jordan, 2:55 PM let people make their own choices Ned, 2:55 PM it's within his rights to do that as long as he doesn't make unacceptable attacks or w/e Joe, 2:55 PM like it sucks to feel irrelevant in a game. and if you can pin that blame on someone, why not? Daniel, 2:55 PM Damn. Daniel, 2:55 PM Y’all going on. Daniel, 2:56 PM In* Ned, 2:56 PM within his rights doesn't mean me as a spectator would like him to do that Joe, 2:56 PM but it's within his rights. Kilby, 2:56 PM hes like admitted lol Joe, 2:56 PM so: bitter juries vs. bitter viewers Kilby, 2:56 PM hes allowed to do w.e Daniel, 2:56 PM I think bitter viewers have absolutely no say in anything that happens Daniel, 2:57 PM Therefore...irrelevant? So bitter juries by default are worse? Joe, 2:57 PM they have no stake, doesn't that make it by default worse? jay, 2:57 PM Lmao Anders dressed up Ned, 2:58 PM i hope that we as viewers haven't said anything personal enough to genuinely upset the players when they read back Ned, 2:58 PM i guess that's the issue with spec bitterness Jordan, 2:59 PM but that jacket is so fetch Daniel, 2:59 PM they have no stake, doesn't that make it by default worse? Are you asking like, what is sadder in the grand scheme? Those who are bitter about a game they are in vs. those who are bitter about a game they aren’t in? You shouldn’t give a shit about the game more than the people who are actually in the game. Daniel, 2:59 PM I guess. But I think that’s subjective right Paige, 3:00 PM I cared more about this season than the season I played (I think) Daniel, 3:00 PM Sobs at the accuracy Paige, 3:01 PM shh Daniel but I know its true :( Paige, 3:01 PM I have learned through the last month and a half that I enjoy being a viewer more than a player though Joey, 3:02 PM It's fun in a diff way Daniel, 3:03 PM I agree. Especially when you have a friend or someone in the game Kilby, 3:03 PM anders is WAY better than i thought hed be Kilby, 3:03 PM in the actual speech Kilby, 3:03 PM thank god Daniel, 3:03 PM it’s hard on the flip side when you know there are viewers who are your friends. The pressure is so on it sucks Vic, 3:04 PM agreed Vic, 3:04 PM I was gonna mute Anders but he isnt being that bad Ned, 3:05 PM you'd rather someone be super angry in the jury chat and not in the ftc than the reverse i guess Paige, 3:05 PM i was expecting this to be way way worse, its actually better than the start of abby's Paige, 3:06 PM and Daniel i think you are right, though when i became a viewer i had no clue danny was going to be casted, i had recently reconnected with sam so i figured give it a shot Daniel, 3:06 PM If there’s any game to be a viewer in, Endure is the best place to do it Paige, 3:07 PM so true Jordan, 3:07 PM agreed, endure has the bet viewing always Jordan, 3:07 PM best* Paige, 3:11 PM well i am glad this was my first experience with viewing Paige, 3:12 PM and we got the 2 seconds of yelling Ashlee, 3:12 PM "danny I don't like you at all " Jordan, 3:12 PM but it wasn't as loud or red Kilby, 3:13 PM queen sarena Daniel, 3:13 PM Oh. I have to root for Jess so we can have another 4 letter name winner Daniel, 3:13 PM I don’t care that her name is Jessaca Daniel, 3:14 PM her name is Jess. Ned, 3:14 PM you don't want a winner named daniel? Jordan, 3:14 PM I don’t care that her name is Jessaca first off, it's queen jessocka Jordan, 3:14 PM please get it right Paige, 3:14 PM I really want jess Kilby, 3:14 PM goshocka Daniel, 3:14 PM you don't want a winner named daniel? I don’t believe in miracles love Ned, 3:26 PM danny isn't uh...he's not doing that well imo Paige, 3:27 PM why am I not surprised Kilby, 3:40 PM god alex rico is a god Paige, 3:40 PM true Ashlee, 3:41 PM I forgot I was the host of the hangout and almost clicked on my own picture to look at my hair lmao so you're welcome that I caught myself at the last second Kilby, 3:41 PM it looks lovely Ashlee, 3:41 PM thank u Paige, 3:42 PM we wouldn't have minded, the others who knows, but then again who wouldn't want to see you Ashlee, 3:43 PM <3 Jayden, 3:46 PM Finally I’ve caught up Paige, 3:47 PM is it just Bryce and matt that we still have? Vic, 3:48 PM yes Paige, 3:51 PM alex said he was going to talk fast, and this isn't even fast Paige, 4:08 PM i loved danny throwing shade at himself when he was talking about the irl game because I believe in the ones he played a lot of the challenges came from different ones he hosted Jordan, 4:24 PM god they still have closing statements too huh Paige, 4:24 PM oh my Paige, 4:24 PM longer finale than the actual show Vic, 4:24 PM We've literally never had this many people take their full 15 minutes Ashlee, 4:25 PM this is literally so long Kilby, 4:25 PM this is the worst yes Paige, 4:26 PM so long Paige, 4:26 PM thank you ashlee for only giving them 5 minutes Ashlee, 4:27 PM its what we always do. I vote next season (if there is an 8) that jurors only get 10 min Joey, 4:27 PM I support it Paige, 4:27 PM sounds a lot better Joe, 4:27 PM This is why big brother finalists only get 1 minute now! Vic, 4:27 PM I agree Kilby, 4:27 PM jurors get 20 seconds Joey, 4:28 PM I feel like so many jurors just like to hear themselves talk anyway Ashlee, 4:28 PM definitely this one Ashlee, 4:28 PM this jury I mean Paige, 4:29 PM I think that is true of this cast Kilby, 4:41 PM one of these votes will shock you Paige, 4:42 PM anders voted jess? Jordan, 4:50 PM omg jayden Paige, 4:53 PM the final 3 being the 3 biggest villains Joe, 4:58 PM kween naomi winning fan favorite <3 Paige, 5:03 PM so happy for jess!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jordan, 5:03 PM Jess can never play another game ever again (cwl) Reegs, 5:09 PM Nah she's like Katie people will think they can take her far and eventually cut her but she'll still slide right through Joe, 5:23 PM Honestly what's the point of playing in ORGs Joe, 5:24 PM I'm never going to be that Good

Sean Faulk @ 19/12/2018 3:54

Honestly, I’ve been on a jury with Bryce. He is insufferable and bitter as fuck. This game is the most grace he’s ever shown.

The one jury you were on with me was Sausage AS and I was always voting for Syd, did vote for Syd and never said otherwise. This was also like 4 years ago, so let it go. You don't even know me
