Welcome zach ! That was quite a tribal council to go out on  Were you expecting the initial votes for you? Did you think you had a chance to stay in the revote? Do you feel betrayed by anyone? Thank you so much for playing! Please be an active juror and answer the general questions in the first post when you can. |

I should sleep on it, but I can't.
-What was the fatal error you made in your game?
Trusting Silas. Alicia was right all along, and I really should've listened to her. I guess I don't have that good of a read on people.
-Any regrets?
I took a bullet for Aubry, we were close allies since the very beginning, and I didn't feel good about my friend possibly getting blindsided. I don't regret trying to save her, but I do regret throwing Locky under the bus. He voted me out, he probably doesn't like me anymore - being so inconsiderate is my only regret.
-Who are you rooting for?
Aubry, Alicia, Andrea and Locky
-Who do you want to see join you in Ponderosa next?
One of the people that voted me out.
-What was your favourite moment in the game?
-Say one word (or use gifs from the smileys) about the remaining players
Alicia: hilarious
Andrea: cool
Aubry: great
Hayden: boring
Jamal: lame
Jefra: cute
Locky: amazing
Phoebe: Australian
Sarah: phony
Silas: sociopath

Were you expecting the initial votes for you? Did you think you had a chance to stay in the revote? Do you feel betrayed by anyone?
I was expecting it to be 6-4. Why would Silas vote for me? I still don't get it. I talked with him for hours, every single day. I protected him for 3 rounds. There's been rumors, about how he's been kissing everyone's ass, and basically talking 24/7, but I refused to listen. It sucks. He said he's going to tell me the reason why he voted me out, after the game is over. What kind of psycho do you have to be - to mist someone so badly for 10 days? Ugh. Even after the votes were read, he still kept complimenting me for hours. How could I not see it coming?
Locky told me he's going to tell me whether he was going to keep me or not. He never said anything. I honestly thought we were so close. It really sucks to build relationships, only to find out they weren't real. I guess it was a one-sided friendship, but I completely destroyed it, by leaking the info he gave me. I don't think I'm going to get over it anytime soon.
I do feel betrayed by Silas. And it was an unnecessary move, too! He's in the minority, all he had to do, was hide under the radar, build relationship and make it to the end. Why would you wanna alienate jury members? He's not likely to get my vote, that's for sure.
-What was your favourite moment in the game?
Alicia calling out Sarah, basically anything Alicia ever said. I do feel so bad for ever doubting her, ugh! Looking for an idol with Aubry and Andrea was interesting, and I feel like we bonded over that. Talking with Locky - I don't know why I decided to ruin his game, I feel worse about that than getting voted out.

Sorry to see you here zach  I felt like you were playing a decent game for the most part but then it blew up in your face. I definitely did not see you as the merge boot but holy shit what a round. It sucks to be blindsided  but you seem to be taking it well. Now that you're on the receiving end of a blindside, can you relate to Brenda? Would you have voted Locky out if he was in a tie against Aubry/Andrea/Alicia? Also do you feel like you weren't being your real self when it came to confessionals?  Thanks so much for playing  |

I'm not dealing well with my blindside! It's been only 12 hours, I already started drinking and I'm not celibate anymore. I'm a mental health advocate, and people like myself and Brenda shouldn't be allowed to play these games. I would've voted out Locky over Aubry/Andrea/Alicia. I tried my hardest not to step on anyone's toes, I was asked to read people's posts and judge whether they're "problematic", there's also been talk about pronouns and sexuality. I didn't take my confessional to that level, since I'm very casual. I tried to be respectful, but at the end of the day, I'm probably the least liked contestant on the cast. I thought I made some good friends, but I don't think that's the case anymore.

zach omg hi, I'm a ~huge fan~ and you were my #1 pick for my fantasy team!!!! I'm sorry you were voted out, but you were in no way a disappointment to me; you really delivered in gameplay and in entertainment. I thought you were playing such a strong game and were well integrated all over that I definitely did not expect you to be the merge boot. It really was such a crazy round that it feels like almost anything could have happened, so don't beat yourself up too much. You always did what you felt was right in the moments and hindsight is 20/20, you know? I was just recently eliminated in a game that I got so much hate in and I felt so similarly (that people hated me) so I can completely understand where you're coming from. I hope that as people join you in the jury, you are able to have some good conversations that ease your frustrations and help you realize that you are not as hated as you fear. These games can be so tough and the social aspect of it just plays mind games on everyone. (I'm a big mental health advocate too [lol hi siggy] so if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to reach out, even if it's just to vent!!)

Thank you, Estelle! What game did you compete in? Any time! I was in GPS IX: One Piece! I got third and then walked into a jury with multiple threads personally bashing me, the hosts had to warn me before I came in; it was rough. I made it through and found comfort in some people sending me support, so I'm determined that you'll get through this.  Edit: and you won't be alone for much longer!! I hope you get the answers and closure you deserve |

Welcome aliciarosa ! These were some strange circumstances to go out on as you don’t know how many votes it took to get rid of you! Where do you think it all fell apart? Do you stand by voting for Sarah if she makes the end? Thank you so much for playing! You were a mess at times, but you did provide some drama and had quite the personality (Although, we would have like to see a bit more of that in your confessionals)! Please stick around to watch the game unfold and answer the general questions in the first post when you can! |

Sorry to see you here aliciarosa You were hilarious from what we saw and the game definitely needed someone with your personality in it. It seemed like you gave up this round due to what happened at Zach's boot which is a shame because you said you were gonna win this game. Also I loved your Wentworth gif usage in your call-out to Sarah  Did Sarah try to speak to you at all? Do you think there was anything you could have done this round? Thanks so much for playing |

 zach Can you say shooooooooooook What a blindside man. I think for the most part, you were playing good but a little clueless regarding Silas which you definitely found out. I really thought you would make it far. Keep your head up! Thanks so much for playing and not being a Flop  Do you regret not working Vuku when the tribes swapped? Do you feel if you did you would not be sitting here? We will see you back here at the finale when you have a say in crowing the winner of SRNF1!  |

aliciarosa Sorry to see you here What a way to go out though you were sweet and played a good under the radar game. You were starting to come into your own and I don't think people knew that you were more aware than you let on. If only you kept it together after the Zach blindside only a select few can cause a drama and stay in the game it's a skill Who is playing the best game right now? Who are you rooting for/against? Thanks Alicia! We will see you back here at the finale when you have a say in crowing the winner of SRNF1!  |
