[Frosti]

Hello all my JURY BABIES!! A lot of familiar faces, and also a lot of “WTF WHO ARE YOU” faces. I’m going to cut the cute right now, and say this… I came into this game and entered Tuvalu with one goal in mind.

Win the game.

That was my only intention of playing the game. Not to make friends. Not to make my first appearance on SRGO. Not to have a little fun. No. My ONLY intention of playing the game was to win, and that’s what I hope on doing.

I entered the game knowing only one measly person who’s name just happens to be Simplton. Funny thing is that Simplton was NEVER EVER on my Tribe throughout this entire game (well he was on my Tribe for one early week, lol)! So I was obviously forced to find some new friends. The first person I talked to was Mookie, since both Mookie and Myself (Frosti) share names of Asian contestants on the TV Show, Survivor. I found it funny and so did he. Soon enough, the two of us formed a Final Two alliance that neither of us planned on breaking throughout the entire game. I never went against him and never would even think about betrayed him in any way shape or form. I wish he was sitting by my side tonight, rather than someone like Raymond (who no offense dude because you’re my great buddy now) who self voted many times this game. After meeting Raymond, I also talked to Phuq and ChadTwo, both of whom ended up not being on my Tribe.

Soon enough, Tribe’s were announced and I instantly found myself becoming close to Elizabeth and Vicdemort. People were soon eliminated like crazy. Mookie and I laid low though, and voted out people as a “couple”. We went after Elizabeth thinking she was a threat but Aaron went home instead. Then the week after we voted for Elizabeth AGAIN but ChadTwo went home instead since he was a tad bit inactive.

As the game went on began to talk to TLK, Michael, Raymond, Masia, and Stuff. I wanted to be on all of their good sides just in case my close allies (Mookie/Simplton/Vicdemort/Phuq) went home. I still had Elizabeth as an ally but I was secretly not so much with her, but I was definitely more with her than most other people. And guess what happened next? Phuq quits the game and Rigel comes back into the game! Hahaha! Well, I lost an ally and a HUGE threat came back into the game. No fear ladies and gentlemen, I started to talk to more people because I knew that I needed some sort of army to go against all the threats in the game such as Michael, Stuff, TLK, and Rigel.

This is the part of the game where I received the biggest scare of ALL! I was put on a Tribe with TLK, Michael, Stuff, and my boy Simplton. After talking to Simplton, he told me that he too wanted all the threats gone and that’s why he got rid of Softball and Rigel’s first life in the past. Next, Elizabeth was finally voted out of the game. SHE WAS ONE HARDCORE BEAST though! I’ve never seen someone get so many votes and not die, lolz!! This was the start of the Jury…

Next, Simplton was unfortunately voted out of the game. All the threats took him out over me because I’m fun loving Frosti. No one would hurt me, right? Soon after this, I actually won Immunity during the incredibly brutal Plate Smashing game. During this game Stuff and I had a long conversation (via PM) wherein we decided to take down everyone together. But towards the end of the game we both attacked each other and she unfortunately ended up with no Immunity around her neck, while Me/Rigel received it together.

After a lot of socializing, the game was down to Me, Michael, Stuff, Raymond, Masia, and Mookie. My Final Two partner was still, obviously, Mookie. But I was now VERY VERY close to both Masia and Raymond, whom I teamed up with to try and get rid of Stuff. Me/Mookie/Masia/Raymond noticed that with Stuff in the game, none of us would win. A lot of good we did there, huh? Also, Michael was my back up ally at this time. If Stuff won Immunity then he would go home. And guess what? Stuff won Immunity, and as promised, Michael left.

The following week I won Immunity, and we all voted for Stuff. As I voted I thought about the possibility of her having the Hidden Immunity Idol. Hm? And you know what happened next! Stuff used her Idol and voted out Masia. Poor girl, gah!

After this was the Final Four. Mookie and I were SO HAPPY that we were so so so close to making it to the end of the game. But just in case, I had Raymond with me on my side. There was Stuff too, and I of course tried to stay on her good side. “Frosti charm, baby!” Stuff won Immunity and Stuff/Raymond voted for Mookie while Me/Mookie voted for Raymond. RayRay won the tie breaker and my Final Two partner and great great friend was eliminated as the Final Juror.

And that is the story of how I used constant socializing mixed with a lot of challenge dominating and good old Frosti charm. All these factors, and more, is what helped me get this far in the game. “Outplay.” Yes, I did that for all seventeen of you who were already eliminated. “Outwit”. Yes, my good old Frosti charm helped get me a good team and make my way to the end of the game. “Outlast”. Yes, here I am.

My name is Frosti, and I hope you vote for me to win Survivor Tuvalu!!! Thanks for your time, Jurors. And if you have any questions then PLEASE PLEASE ask them!!

FROSTILICIOUS BABY!

[Raymond]

Hey guys. Well, first of all, I'd like to say, that yes, I know you'll bash me for being inactive & being undeserving to be in the Final 3, but lemme just say: at least I made it. I managed to do what 17(?) others weren't able to accomplish, even if it meant doing almost nothing except choosing the right set of allies. Secondly, I do apologize if I didn't talk to you in this game and get to know you better. And of course, thank you to my alliances (eventhough 5 of the 6 of them were on the other tribe before the merge and they were all voted off consecutively) because without you guys, I wouldn't even be here.

I'm keeping mine short, since my game was short & simple: as long as it's not me or my closest allies (which were reduced to Frosti after the last switch & Stuff during the Final 4 - Jake, Liz, Phuq, Simplton & Vicdemort were ALL voted off one after another), I'm going with whichever way the vote will go.

So guys, I'm looking forward to all the bashing you have for me. :laff: (PS: I won't answer if it's a personal hit).

[! Chad !]

We just are waiting on Stuff.
Juror's get ready.

[! Chad !]

All stars are up BTW

[Stuff]

Wow, I was sure I would have been one of the first people voted out. I played my game as I usually do. I started by trying to eliminate the inactives, because they are no fun to play against. Then, I talked to everyone who talked to me and there were a lot of you who would ask me who I was voting for. I never made it any secret as to who I was voting or what I was doing and still I remained safe. I never made an alliance with anyone until Rigel came back. Then Rigel asked if we could stick together, knowing that the two of us were on our own. After Rigel left I talked to Raymond and tried to make him see that Mookie, Frosti, & Masia were tight and that we had a chance if we stuck together. I don't think that he believed me at first, but I think he came around. During the plate breaking game, Frosti pm'd me to make a deal that if I didn't go after him in the challenge he wouldn't go after me. That was short lived as the first chance he got he went after me first, which led to me going after him. I knew that Frosti was just trying to tell me what he thought I wanted to hear to keep me from voting him out. I had a plan, but my plan was foiled by Frosti winning immunity. I had hoped that someone else would win immunity and I would then use my idol and vote out Frosti. Instead I had no choice but to take out Masia. Then when it came down to the f4 I tried to get Raymond to vote out Frosti, but he said that Frosti had helped him out before so he would rather vote Mookie. I knew that Frosti and Mookie would vote together and Raymond would end up going home, so I voted with Raymond to vote out Mookie. I figured that Mookie wasn't doing the challenges, he was only voting. Raymond was atleast doing challenges, even if he forgot to vote several times. I knew that Raymond would win the tie because Mookie wouldn't do the challenge as that was his pattern. I think I Outplayed, because I made it to the F3 with only making small alliance at the end. I definetely Outlasted as I made it to the F3. I believe had we gone to a F2 it would have been me and Raymond. I definetely Outwited, because I never had an alliance with anyone before the merge. I was just very social and anyone who knows me, knows that if I tell them something then that is what I am going to do and no one ever really tried to stop me. I think that because I never made an alliance it actually kept me from getting voted out. I think that people who had alliance thought that they would be safe, but usually alliance start to crumble because there are always several alliances mixed in one alliance and they start attacking their own to save themselves.

I really enjoyed playing with all of you and I am glad that for the most part that everyone was active. I look forward to playing with you all again.

for everyone
3 reasons (per person) why you should win over the other remaining survivors. in the end you should have 6 reasons ( 3 for each remmainig survivor)

Frosti- lets say the week i left stuff didnt get immunity and u got rid of her then the following week i won immunity who would have u gotten rid of out of ur 4 alliance members and why? and the same if i continued to win the rest of the immunity challenges. basically i want a boot list order of your alliance members at that time and why?

Raymond- was it a stratergy to not vote having people think u were inactive there for keeping you longer? if so why did u come up with this stratergy if not then what was your startergy

Stuff- going back to what frosti said about that if u didnt win the immunity the week i left, you would have left say i won that immunity would have u played the idol at TC or did you believe you were safe. if you did play the idol who would have you voted to get rid of? why?

[Frosti]

Michael’s Questions:

1.) Three reasons (for both Raymond/Stuff) that I played a better game than them…

Three reasons I should win over Stuff are:
a) I was more social than her. She went through the beginning of the game without talking to people or allying anyone. She began to make allies towards the end of the game (Rigel/Raymond-ish), while I had a large number of allies all game. In fact, my Final Two partner, Mookie, talked to me during the first day of the game and we decided to stick by each other no matter what since we were both new to the site. And look how far we both got, haha!! I also allied Vicdemort, Simplton, and Elizabeth very early on in the game, and didn’t meet my other allies until constant merges later in the game. I had SO MANY allies this game, and I don’t know how nobody noticed that, hehe.

b) I always had a back up plan while Stuff didn’t. Once one of my allies was eliminated from the game I would always have a backup ally to fall back on. For example, when Vicdemort was eliminated I started to contact Rigel and Michael and TLK. Stuff did not do this, as she stuck with a minimal amount of people throughout the game. She did not try to gain allies in a sense, unless she was contacted by someone.

c.) I was new to the game and didn’t know anyone. Stuff is a HUGE veteran and HUGE threat on SRGO, and everyone already knew and loved her. As someone new to SRGO, it was difficult for me to get to learn who everyone was in a short amount of time. After much socialization, I slowly gained the knowledge as to what everyone was all about. But for Stuff, she already knew what to expect and what not to say/do to people. So to make it this far without knowing ANYONE, well, that’s just awesome. Oh, and I also received ZERO VOTES for me ALL GAME!! Stuff, however, received a few here and there. So even with no one knowing who I was, I still managed to receive absolutely NO VOTES for myself ALL GAME! That’s so cool, lolz.

Three reasons I should win over Raymond are:
a.) I voted at every single Tribal Council. Haha, sorry for this low blow Raymond, but c’mon, you knew this was coming man. I think this one speaks for itself. Raymond self-voted a lot of the game because he missed the voting deadline, while I never self-voted the entire game.

b.) I was a larger Immunity Challenge whore compared to Raymond. He never won Immunity all game, wherein I won Immunity several times here and there. I was a larger competition dominator, simply.

c.) I was much more social than Raymond. He didn’t really talk much at all, where I was messaging constant people all game. I became close to Raymond after PM’ing him and seeing where he stood in the game. I had a LOT LOT LOT of allies, wherein I don’t think he had all that many, at least not as much as me.

2.) Frosti- Let’s say the week I left Stuff didn’t get Immunity and you got rid of her then the following week I won Immunity who would have you gotten rid of out of your four alliance members and why?
If Stuff went home instead of you that week then things would have been a LOT easier, first off. But if you won Immunity that following week, hypothetically speaking, then I would have pushed for Raymond to be eliminated next over Myself, Mookie, and Masia. This is for two reasons. One being that Raymond was less active that Mookie/Masia and that he had self voted a few times during the game, thus becoming slightly less deserving of staying longer in the game. The second reason is that Mookie was my Final Two partner since day one of the game and I trusted him with my life, and Masia I met only a tiny while before Raymond because we both had a common goal in mind (getting rid of Stuff). I trusted Masia more than Raymond, and because of this, I would have wanted Raymond gone before her. (FYI- my ideal Final Three was Me/Mookie/Masia, with Raymond as our fourth.)

And the same if I continued to win the rest of the Immunity Challenges, basically I want a boot list order of your alliance members at that time and why?
Well, I basically answered this question above, but I’ll do it again. My bootlist for the Final Five (if you kept winning Immunity each week) would have been a Final Three of Me/Mookie/Michael. The fourth would be Masia, and the fifth would be Raymond. As I stated above, Mookie was my Final Two partner since day one and we would never break that pact. Michael, you would have hypothetically won every Immunity Challenge and have made it that far. Masia is the fourth because she’s my girl and I would have wanted her to be in the Final Three over you, Mister Mike (even though I love you too man) because Masia and I had a common goal and thought VERY MUCH alike. Raymond would be the fifth because he was a tad bit inactive at times and less deserving than the rest of us.

thanx frosti

[Mookie Lee]

First of all, Congratulations on making the Final 3. My question is the same for all of you. So what was the best decision you made in the game that got you to the Final 3?

[Frosti]

Mookie's Question:

1.) First of all, Congratulations on making the Final 3. My question is the same for all of you. So what was the best decision you made in the game that got you to the Final 3?

The best decision of the game I made, and this is NOT me trying to suck up... was contacting Mookie via PM. This was my best decision of the game because within only a few days Mookie had become my Final Two partner in the game, and we both told one another that we would stick by that pact NO MATTER WHAT! We both stuck to the alliance all the way until the Final Four, where Raymond beat Mookie in the tie breaker at the final tribal council.

Going along these lines, I'd say my best "general" move of the game is obviously contacting a large majority of people on a daily basis just to see what was going on in the game. And sometimes me PM'ing them would turn into an alliance or at least a mutual agreement. So PM'ing people daily was my best "general move", but in more detail, my best MOVE of the game was contacting and allying Mookie.

[Raymond]

Keeping my answers short & simple.

Michael's Questions:

Well, I do think that it will be hard defending myself against Frosti & Stuff as they played much more foolproof games, but I think I should win over both for the three same reasons.

1) I actually formed alliances which I was sure wouldn't break so I won't need to do anything else (Liz/Vic/Jake pre-game, Simplton/Phuq once tribes were given, Frosti at the last switch & Stuff towards the end).
2) I actually had a strategy that wasn't fully dependent on me winning challenges & voting for someone (consequently removing the target of being inactive/a silent threat/undeserving out of me even though I played numerous games before & some of the jurors know how I play, thus preventing me getting voted off pre-merge).
3) I also happened to be at the right place at the right time.

Well, it wasn't really a strategy to self-vote (I always planned to vote, but I either forget I haven't voted yet or I can't get online) but it was my strategy to stay low and UTR, so I hope that answers your questions.

Mookie's Question:

Best move: Aligning with Simplton & Phuq in the beginning & aligning with Stuff in the end. Because honestly, if I had not aligned with Simplton & Phuq, I would've not allied with Frosti after the switch in the first place (thus putting me at risk somewhere during the Final 7 to 9) and if I had not talked to Stuff, I'd have been doomed.

[Elizabeth]

This games has the longest opening statements I've ever seen. And I've played in a lot. lol.

I don't have many questions, so...each of you can pick a number between 1 and 500.

[Frosti]

Elizabeth's Question:

1.) Pick a number between 1 and 500.
444

[Rigel]

Hmm... Okay, then...

Frosti: We know that social gameplay was one of your biggest strengths over the course of the game. I'm wondering though, in your opinion, does it show more strength to get here with a social network to catch you, or to come this far essentially on your own? Also, hypothetically, if social aspects didn't effect the game, and you were eliminated only based on how you did in challenges, how do you think the game would have worked differently for you?

Raymond: If you could play this game again, but do one thing differently, what would it be and why?

Stuff: What was the biggest challenge/obstacle in the game for you, and why was it a problem?

All: Make a short statement about each member of the jury.

Okay, there's my questions. Good luck, you three.
