||FEAR THE SLICE's LAST WORDS||

Well I can't say that I didn't expect to be here right now. I had been on thin ice since Penguin left because everyone knew we were tight. While I could go and rant on the sh&t that I went through, I'd rather reflect on the game itself.

The first week and I was already labeled a challenge threat along with Penguin. Unlike Penguin though, I was labeled as eccentric and people wanted me to go immediately. With my main ally being Penguin and Penguin having connections with most of the tribe, I learned I was going to be the first one to go unless we were required to vote out an inactive. The same process went on the next 2 weeks with me being looked at as the immature child who knew too much.

The real change in my game was in week 4. That week I was switched to Nakum after being voted their by my former tribe. My first reaction to it was "F*ck you. You finally got your wish. I'm gone". Unaware was I that the tribes re-arranged that night and low and behold, Penguin was the only other former Yaxha to be switched. My main ally and I were still in trouble since there were 4 Nakums and 2 Yaxha. I left it to Penguin to keep our chances alive. We lost the immunity challenge this week due to the weakness of RaveMaster. Penguin took this as a perfect oppertunity to make his move for our safety. Rave left us in a 4-1-1 vote.

Week five, Nakum won its first ever immunity so I could buy myself another week. This week, Sky was voted out and revealed to be PlumNutzzz (Debi). She had some family issues and that is the reason for her inactivity. I do want to say that I hope her family is healthy and in good will.

Week six proved to be my downfall in this game as this round was the reason I am here now. I was on vacation this week so I did not attend tribal council so I recieved both a self-vote and a vote from Akkadian (which I cannot blame because he knew he needed only one extra vote to be safe). Low and behold, I come back to hear Akk had been voted out in a 3-2 vote.

The next week there was no tribe immunity challenge as it is a double triba council week but instead an individual immunity challenge. With God's grace, I won that immunity challenge which sealed my fate to make at least merge. While I was esctatic for that fact, I was also faced with a difficult decision. The Former Yaxha and Nakum now were equal at 2 a piece. Banana said he was going to vote twin. Twin told me earlier in the evening she was voting banana. Penguin and I were set on voting Banana at this Tribal Council. During the tribal council however, Twin told me that she wanted Penguin to go. I then had to decide if I wanted to vote with Twin, the only person besides Penguin to approach me, or vote her out to keep my #1 ally safe. I ultimately could not turn my back on Penguin and had to bid adu to Twin. I do hope that Twin is alright.

I do know have to point out the first great move made in this game. Everyone knew that going into merge, there were two alliance leaders. One was Spill and the other was Penguin. Spill's followers were Game, I Am Dracula, Dynasty, and (at the time) Durf. Penguin had the control of myself, banana, and Lil Evil Brian. Two inactives completed the 11; Nine and Bood. Well at the Yaxha Tribal Council, Spill made an ingenious move. He took out Brian so that we would be down two people at the merge. I do want to commend him for that.

That brings us to the merge. Final 10 was a blurry week. Drac put us under the false impression that he was with us. He gave the immunity he won that night to Nine so that Bood would be voted out. Bood did leave and was the last person to not become a juror.

Final 9 was upon us and spirits were high since we all knew we had made it to the core of the game. Drac won immunity again. Then came tribal council. Dagger to the heart this one is. Nine had returned from his inactivity so that meant we had to vote an active member out. On our side we had Penguin, myself, banana, Nine, and Drac (or so we thought). Game, Spill, Durf, Dynasty filled the other side. Earlier in the evening, Spill told me I had one week left in the game. I lied to penguin and told him that Spill told me that I was going this week. I do not remember the motives for this but at the time I thought it was a good idea. He did leave that night. At first, both I and Penguin thought it was Banana who switched. After referring to screenshots, it was determined that it was Drac. I was a dead man walking. I was gone next.

But under God's good will, the next week I won immunity. Fearing a tie, Durf jumped to our side and voted out dynasty who became the first one gone from the Fagtastic Four. Next week, Game quit the game. I felt that that move was remarkably stupid. He lost his jury spot because of it and now the inactive Bood became the first juror. I, in turn, am one of the few people to hold immunity for over a week during one immunity win.

Then this week, banana won immunity. I told him it would be smart to give me immunity to avoid either of us getting votes. Banana did not believe that and the paranoia-struck Banana was safe. After two deadlock ties, I was sent home as a result of that fateful round 6 weeks before. Who ever knew that going on a vacation would be the downfall of someone. Vacations are associated with fun in the sun and spending time with family.. never had it meant costing someone the game.

Overall, I believe that I did play a good game. This was the first time I played under the radar. I let Penguin take my fall and then cranked up the juice and won myself two extra rounds. Now I want to say my piece about each of the remaining players.

Banana, you were my best friend and closest ally after Penguin left. I thank you for always sticking by me even thought you didn't give me that immunity. I hope that you are following right behind me. Put up a fight because I know the jurors are cheering for you!

Nine, I really do have to say that you are not in my good books. Though you were in my alliance after you returned from inactivity, you should not be in the game. You coasted to the merge because of Yaxha's immunity streak and then because there were inactives that were higher on the pecking list than you. Good luck to you and I hope you continue being active.

Durf, you played the roll of the flip-flopper. You went back and forth between the alliances. I do not like that style of gameplay because I believe in being completely devoted to one alliance but you made it farther than me so it must do good things for you. Continue playing hard and hopefully you will get far.

Drac, you were the person who sent my game downhill. You were false in the fact that Penguin hated you. He considered you his closest friend in the game besides me and you were worried he was going to get you out. I believe karma comes to bite all those who are too blinded by paranoia in the end.I am glad we got to talk during the tribal council I left at and for that, I hope you do make final 2 because, unless banana is there, you will get my vote.

Last is Spill. Oh god. I could rant on for hours on end about Spill. The fact is that he is the best player left in the game. He made the right moves at the right time. He was upfront with his feelings and he never backed down. The reason we got into fights was because I also never hold back my emotions. Penguin was always telling me to shut up and to not fight but I'd rather tell what I feel than let it not be known. Spill, I respect you tremendously and I hope to see you next season so we can fight another battle.

And I have to commend Survivor Guy for his amazing series. It's now been six years and this series is still going strong. You are an amazing host who never loses his cool under stressful situations. I hope to play in more of your games.

And that looks to be it. Thank you all for reading in on our trials in tribulations. This game may look like it was all fun and games but it was very stressful. I hope that you see that I was myself and nothing but myself. Whether you hate me or you love me, there is only one Fear. If you've got a problem with that, apply for the next season of OLS and bring it. Love you all <3 ~*¥Ben/Fear The Slice©*~ (You have just read 1600 words)
