Off-topic Bay 13 Survivor: Cockburn (2016). We have a winner! (links in OP)

[Sainter3and7]

I still don't know how to tag someone, so I am just quoting this cause it has the two last finalists and Starburns as well.

First, thank you SO much to everyone - and I mean everyone, people who got cut from Royals onwards (come back mate)... everyone gave me a lot of smiles and laughs. The first thing I did in the morning when I got up was... check this thread. It was a real highlight of every day for me.

I've said once before that this last year has been hellish for me (my wife has battled cancer with surgery, chemo and 25 radiation treatments) so I really needed the lols. She's fine (touch wood) but it still takes a toll. I really really needed this.

In the same way as Dapper said this had been good for him, it's been good for me.
Cheers, and thank you all.
Congratulations Benwah for winning, and Dapper for making it so far.

What people probably don't realise is how close it was. The 4-4 vote was a crucial one. It was my lead with my alliance that suggested we vote fapper, bc we thought he'd cough up his idol to benwah. We knew one of them would and knew ted moist had the hidden one, but it was my misjudgement that cost us. I thought fapper would flip his, as it turned out they were less cunning than I gave them credit for.

We choose right in that vote then final four is Stronzo, TootToot!, Dinsdale and myself.

It's a game of inches!!! I really thought my 11 inches was enough, but apparently not.

Nah we were on to that actually.

Well I'd say your thinking chair or whatever you were smoking while in it definitely agrees with you. You're right, the entries were damn good across the board. Quite a few people went to a lot of trouble and there weren't really any weak contestants either. (no doubt Morganashlee will disagree!)

I had so much fun I forgot all about those vicious backstabbing ****s who voted me out & see no reason to keep the list of their names I scrawled in blood either!
Seriously, well done to everyone* involved you guys really went to a lot of trouble and we all loved reading your challenge entries.
*Except you gooses who turncoated on me. YOU know who you are

Just enjoy the 3 peat and shutup

Googling it for the pic was the first time I'd seen it too.



Couldn't use Fyfe on the pic because of Allikat and didn't want to use Jim Hird again. I've only had a handful of different avatars on here.



This year was much better than expected. In all honesty, it's not that hard to throw out a few challenge ideas (it only took a few hours in the thinking chair to go from blank slate to mapped out game) that offer enough scope to use a range of ideas and skills to bring the lulz. It's the quality of the contributions that make it, and this year was an excellent field.



Hindsight is 20/20 but you guys wasted the blindside move by voting out K4E. Benwah and Dapper were stronger in the challenges, and you could've created some division and distrust in that alliance with a 2-2 tribal split. K4E and RM say they were never with you after the merge, but they voted with you to oust Hazard, so they can't have been fully committed.

It was beneficial for K4e and I to win challenges in team Cotchin as our alliance had ascendancy in chopsticks. So we worked well there to stay in. We voted with Duritz and Dinsdale regularly when we had to at that stage as a block of four was handy. The move to vote out Hazard was also strategy as toot was next in line and we split the vote. Hazard didn't use the Hidden idol so that's his problem. Could have stayed in otherwise. K4e's work was undone by Duritz cleverly. He knew our target and covered Toot with his immunity. It was the first move in the game that shook things up and rattled as we lost the next challenge as well by dropping the ball. We had two idols and didn't cover Boydy.

That was when we were down 3-4 as well.

Basically my poker bluff was and continues to be really, really shit.

Just put a @ in front of the person you want to tag
For instance typing @DapperPong would tag DapperPong if he existed
Best of luck on your wifes recovery, it's a very difficult time.

Maybe. Duritz regarded you as a threat as you had great organisation skills. You worked really hard in the middle stages by getting Cotchin members focussed on challenges. Only you and I knew that it wa benefiting our numbers.
