The Torch Burial Ceremony
Host: Every season at final 3 I ask for the remaining tribe members to reflect back on the past survivors and give them an opportunity to say a few words about them. Sammi reflects…. Preston - He was a good guy. He wasnt around long and I feel badd, cuz he couldve been a great alli and fun to talk too. I hope he can forgive me for when he messaged me before Tribal Council and asked who was the votes for... I sayd something along the lines of 'I dont know' and he was later gone. He was a good guy, just didnt have the time to show it.
2. Rachel - I didnt know you.
3. Fey - There isnt much for me to say about her. I hardly talked to her and when I did there wasnt much to say. She seemed like a sweet girl w/ a fiery personality. Which could of been fun to watch as long as it wasnt directed towards me. Best of luck.
4. Kitty - I didnt know you.
5. Myke - What is there to say about Myke? Overall he's a good guy that means well. The fact that he was taking out of the game the way he was, really sucks, but things happen. Hope he can forgive, for it was nothing personal.
6. Kyle - I didnt know you.
7. Mathew - Mat was one of my favorite ppl pre-merge. He was nice and fun to talk too. His time in this game was cut WAY to short and I wish he was still around after merge. I just want him to remember that I was by his side and voted to keep him in even when everyone else voted him out. Im sorry that it happened that way. I look forward to speaking with you again.
8. Mike - I didnt know you
9. Jason - I never had any problems with Jason. He was always pretty nice to me. In my opinion he was a good guy. Whenever he knew he was gone, he didn't cause a scene, he took it like a man and bowed out. Thats a good way to go out, even if he did trash me behind my back.
10. Gerald - I dont even know what to say about Gerald. I've been told numerous times that the way he was to me after merge is how he is and people have got to get use to it. I think it was wrong and inconsiderate of him to do what he did and I refuse to forgive him for it. I know what I did, helping get rid of Jason - which led to him leaving, was the best decision I have yet to make in this game and I dont regret it at all. Even after the immaturity and low blows, I wouldnt be standing at Final 3 if I didnt weather the storm.
11. Joe - After lil tiffs in the challenge threads about what time we should make them, I kind of knew that we wouldnt be much of friends and I was right. Im sure under different circumstances he was a great guy and fun to talk to, but I didnt see it and never will.
12. Lisa - The one I was told would be a contender. I dont think her heart was set on the game all too much. She came out when she needed too and did nothing more. But because of that I think she stayed around a lot longer then some people.
13. Amanda - A hard player when she needs to be, but towards the end started getting sloppy. She knew her partner, Gerald, was gone and it was a matter of time before she was also taken down. If she focused more at the end, she could have done something damaging with her abilities, but became more or less inactive.
14. Jacob - The guy in the beginning I trusted 100% and stuck with me after merge. Who hardly gave me a reason not to trust him until the last 2 weeks of him being around. He began to get shady which I knew wasnt going to work in my best interest. I feel badd that he went down 4 - 1, but its a game and things must be done. Do I regret it? Not at all.
15. Bob - A great game player. He was always the 3 C's - cool, calm, and collected. Even when he knew he was going, he stuck to his guns and didnt try to make some last ditch effort to keep himself around. A good guy that if things were different could of most deffiently won the game. But as Ive sayd before, things happen.
Dylan reflects… I made it to the Final Three.. Who would have thought? I've dodged a lot of bullets to get this far and its definitely been a bumpy road. I've met a lot of great/annoying/stupid/smart/weird people along the way so without further adue..
1. Preston: I played with Preston in another game, I do believe its him. We weren't in the same tribe but still, its hard to judge someone who got voted out first. I'm sure you're a good guy and all but being voted out first is just pathetic.
2. Rachel: You were an annoying little bitch. First I felt bad for bashing you and then I realized how much you didn't fit in... You were too, what's the word... nice? Even when Kitty attacked you, you just turned around and ignored it. You're lucky you got spared early... It is Survivor and there's really no room for nice people here. Besides, you were too young anyways..
3. Fey: You sound like such and awesome girl but I really don't think talking back to the host is such a good idea.
4. Kitty: You are one bad bitch. Intimidating as hell and yet you didn't really know how to use or control that quality of your's. True, you pretty much demanded the Rachel boot but after that people REALLY got sick and tired of you shoving things down their throats. I saw the damage you can make the second I talked to you and so I decided to buddy up. Kiss ass, suck up, however you want to call it. I didn't want to get on your bad side and so I pretended that I was ok with everything you did. Did we surprise you when you got voted out? Well, we really wanted you to make a scene but I guess that never happened.
5. Myke: You're a good looking guy. I probably would have either loved you to death or hated you. There's no in between with good looking people, haha.
6. Kyle: The whole thing about two people voting for Lisa instead of Kitty is still not clear to me. I'm still not sure if you were telling the truth about how you voted or if I was lied to and convinced to vote you out with you not doing anything wrong. Well if it isn't the second option, we all make mistakes.. I was sorry to see you go but still, you weren't very trust-worthy.
7. Mathew: I.don't.know.you.
8. Mike: Mike.. you were a cool cat. It was nice playing with you and it must have sucked to be voted out right before the merge. So sorry for that. You really did have the same case as Kyle..
9. Jason: God, you are one annoying kid. I never liked you but when it comes down to it I'll kiss ass to save myself and that's exactly what I did. When I heard you were gunning for your tribemates during the merge with your ally Gerald I couldn't wait to write your name down and vote you out. We just never clicked so bleh, glad you left pre-jury.
10. Gerald: Someone who quits doesn't deserve to be remembered. Please jump off a cliff. What you did was pathetic.
11. Joe: Joe, what can I say? We were tight until Jason and Gerald got their hands on you and made you vote with them. After that event your days were really numbered so you can't really blame us for voting you out. Besides, the minute I first talked to you I new I wouldn't get a long with you at all. But when all that drama happened pre-merge I knew I had to buddy up to you and hey, it saved my ass more than a couple of times. When you were voted out I was sooo happy because then I didn't have to pretend I like Paris Hilton's songs just so we can find something to talk about. God, I hated those days when you'd send me stuff. In reality I never uploaded any of the songs you sent me. I just pretended that I liked it since you liked it.
12. Lisa: You were lucky to have made it this far. With all your alliances and crap.. people wanted you gone like the second week but we knew that you'd be a swing vote so it was better to keep you around. Again, I pretended that I cared about your stories over and over and over just to have your votes. I never really listened to any of them, I just posted smilies and the occasional "yeah, I know." And remember when we made that deal where I never vote for you and you never vote for me? Yeah, I got a self-vote when it was time for you to leave. But honey, that was accidental. I would have voted your ass home anytime.
13. Amanda: Yeah, you were non-existent. We had like one conversation and that was the night of the merge. I told you to shut the fuck up because I was in another challenge (well I sugar coated it and told you nicely of course) and we never talked again.
14. Jacob: Your whole game was confusing. I don't really know if the rumor about you coming after me was true or not but still, I had to go with majority. I doubt the rumor after you voted Bob at that TC and if you really were innocent then it sucks that you got voted out over that.
15. Bob: Too little too late. I'm loyal... until I see that by jumping ship I will further myself in the game. And I didn't see that happening with your deal. I can win against Brian. Sammi? Maybe. You... I'm so not even going to try.
Brian reflects… 1. Preston - From what I hear, you were a player, so maybe it was a good thing that you were gone early. It sucks for those who go first because you most likely never got to see their potential. Maybe another game.
2. Rachel - If you were only a little more active and fought to stay, I would've done the same for you. It's a shame how they treated you, but if you realized, she went right after you because of it. You seemed sweet.
3. Fey - You had a mouth on you and couldn't accept that it was just a game. I'm sort of glad you quit so I wouldn't have to put up with you. You seemed like you were a little too much to handle for myself.
4. Kitty - I thought you were great at the beginning, but that quickly faded out from your massive alliances deals with everyone that was online at the moment. I was hoping you'd be a potential ally, but your attitude got in the way. Funny that the two crazy girls got eliminated in the same round.
5. Myke - I know absolutely nothing about you, so I can't really say anything.
6. Kyle - You nearly got your way during that vote, but I convinced Jason to switch, and that changed everything. It was a close one, but I managed to skate right through it. I admire your tenacity for trying to stay. Not everything works out the way you want to though.
7. Mathew - Any friend of Sammi's is a friend of mine. Would've like to have known you better, but I heard you sort of vanished near the end. You could've been great for us, but I'm not if Sammi would've been as close with me. No point in guessing now though.
8. Mike - You were just guilty by association. You seemed like a really cool guy, but unlike Kyle, you just gave up when it came down to the votes. Sucks that you tried to go behind my back because I really liked you. Guess there's nothing we can do about it now.
9. Jason - haha, one of the biggest players in this game. You kind of surprised me by how nonchalant you were playing in the beginning, and I think that's what cost you where you're at now. I was able to build stronger relationships. You nearly had me eliminated, but it was an excellent fight to the end. I know if I'd be standing where you're at now, you'd be standing where I'm at now. I suppose there's only one sherriff that runs this town lol
10. Gerald - You may not realize this, but I did fully trust you in the beginning and wanted to work with you. It was just your constant backtracking and shadiness that made me move onto better things. I'm sure you despise me right now, but it was either me or you guys. Sucks that you quit, but it helped me out a lot because you were a major threat with the challenges, so I can't say that I was complaining when you did.
11. Joe - We were the powerhouse in the beginning, but I think the poewr got to your head near the end of the game. You thought you ran the show, so when I turned on your "gay" alliance, I could understand why you'd be upset. It did cost you a closer spot near the end of the game, but I still think you were an awesome and funny guy. It was great getting to know you.
12. Lisa - I had such high expectations from you at the beginning of the game. You were mature, sweet, and I thought you were really genuine. However, that slowly did fizzle out. You made alliances with everyone but never managed to do a thing. I don't appreciate the Under The Radar strategy, and can't even imagine letting someone coast through like that. I do admire that you tried to stay in the game, but it wasn't good enough apparently.
13. Amanda - You were also sweet, but you were also never around. When you were, all you talked about how busy you were. I wish you could've been here more, but that always can't be the case for everyone. You eventually got on my nerves as to you only voted who a certain someone told you to and didn't even bother to come on and talk with anyone. It sucks that you haven't got to talk to most of my tribe, but I think you put it on yourself a little bit.
14. Jacob - You are one of the smartest kids I know for your age. The reason why I got rid of you was because you were so threatening. I knew you had other deals as far getting to the final 2, and that can't work with me. There were too many factors for me not to keep you, and in a way I'm glad because I know you would've got me out before I got you. You would've won this game if you got to the final 2, simple as that.
15. Bob - You stuck by me thick and thin. You were the sole reason why I'm here today, and I feel terrible to see that you're standing on the other side. But the whole reason why I did this was because I know who the jury wants to win, and you were the next in line for their votes. Your vote was the one I felt the most bad on because you have done nothing but be honest with me. I wish things were different, but it's the best strategic move for myself. Sorry, man. You were awesome.
