Welcome to Survivor: Hyrule! During Tribal Council you will cast your vote here. You must cast a vote before deadline, but you may change it as much as you like before deadline until all votes are submitted. If you fail to cast a vote before deadline, you will receive a self-vote. Giving a reason for your vote is encouraged but not mandatory. Good luck! |

You have shown yourself to be a clever player and a strong competitor in challenges. Perhaps you are a bit overbearing in your leadership and you certainly could work on your social game. |

Vote: Agitha It has been a long time since I have heard from you and from what I gather, this is true for many folks on our tribe. I know you are sick so I hope you feel better soon, but if you were too sick to play this game for that long, then it is not going to be hard to go after you. |

Vote: Link From what I can tell from Skull Kid, something changed with you. You might have had a lot of potential coming into this game but your conversations with me are less than stellar. I have dealt with some difficult PMers in my time but you take the cake. I get the impression that your heart might not be in it right now and it is a shame. Maybe I needed my immunity, maybe I didn't, but me having it pretty much seals your fate. |

Vote: Auru This is one of those ones that hits you right in the feels. I have really been enjoying our conversations and getting to know you but in my endevor to survive as a Kokiri in a Korok tribe, I ended up bonding with Ruto and Skull Kid, and Ruto has offered an alliance between the three of us, which I in turn mentioned to Skull Kid so if all goes well, you are going home and not me. I could easily be going home, but really this seems like the best plan for this point. I do not really know what else to do. I really think everyone on Fairy deserves to stay, but it cannot happen, and I have to make sure it is not me. |

Vote: Princess Ruto You are the last person (besides Epona) that I want to be voting for right now, but I think all the Gerudo's are going for it, even Skull Kid. The tribe swaps were really unfavorable in that they supported the Korok vs. Kokiri mentality. I knew I had to make strong bonds with people on the Fairy tribe in order to survive. You had a tougher task in that there were more people you had to win over, and there was no "Link" player who would be a good counter wagon. Unfortunately it seems like you have not made the bonds necessary to keep you in the game. Right now I do not have the strength or the means to fight this. I will miss playing this game with you. As a side note, I am pretty sure I know who you are and I really was hoping that this time I could work with you in this game as opposed to Conclave and Dr. Who where we did not get the opportunity to work together or bond as much as we did this time around. I only wish we could have gone farther together. |

Vote: Mido I am sorry buddy. I really do kind of like you, but at this point it is probably either you or SKBarinade and I cannot have it be SK/me. Because if it is me I am out, and if it is SK, I figure I am going to be next, so it hast to be someone else. Plus my name has been thrown around too. I think maybe you could have focused some of your PMing elsewhere? I do not know. I got a decent about of PMs from you, many of them short, but I know a lot of people did not hear so much from you, which made you an easier target to pull this one off. |

Vote: Navi I am sorry it came to this. I would rather have gotten Dampe instead, but I am going with the majority on this one, and hoping that I can ride away from any of the the fallout of joining one side or another. |

Vote: Eldin You do not talk to me that much, so I see no reason to keep you in this game. I do not think you will benefit my game that much by being in it. Maybe you will respect the role I played in taking you out if I get to the end. Peace. |

Vote: Colin Mother F***ing Colin. XD You had to blow it like that. B) I think it is funny because I might have been the one to set you off. Not funny that you got upset for that but funny that something I did might have actually sabotaged my own damn efforts to get Eldin out! I wanted another vote so I told you people were pushing you and Eldin and suggested you vote Eldin, but I guess bam, it backfired and you blew up at everyone. Now everyone wants you out. I worked so hard pushing Eldin though and it went up in smoke in a matter or seconds. |

Vote: Eldin Barring no one blowing up or blindsiding me or lying to me, I think this one is going to go down this way this time. Again, you are not really helpful for my game, and I have no belief that I can rely on you to be helpful to my game in the future. Maybe there are bigger and better moves to be made, but if you want people to make them with you, you have to get their trust. Right now a lot of folks do not think they can trust you, as opposed to folks who are more talkative. |

Vote: Bow-Wow Sorry buddy. I am voting you. My plan involves working with Navi and more importantly SK for the moment. So I have to go against you. This vote could cost us though. It might end in a tie where SK goes home instead and you get to turn on Epona and I for lying and trying to vote you out. Oi, this could go horribly wrong in so many ways. I hope it doesn't. |

Vote: Mido I guess Eldin might have a powerful item that seems really OP to me, so we are going to keep him around. With Tetra being immune, it means you are next. Sorry buddy. |

Vote: Tetra At this point I am hoping everything works out. Things could fall apart if my alliance does not stick to the plan. That is what I am concerned about. I think we should be good though. It was fun talking to you Tetra, but you continuing in this game does not really factor into my plans for wining this game. Hindsight will tell if this is a good idea or not. |

Are we supposed to vote now? This vote is conditional in the case that Eldin does not show up, but there is no point in dallying if he isn't going to show up again. So if Eldin doesn't appear this is my vote. If Eldin does show up and says anything in whatever time he has left to say it, this is all null and void. Everything after this paragraph is the vote + reasoning. I went into this expecting to vote Eldin. Hands down I thought Eldin had it in the bag. I thought he deserved it more. He had the largest hand in booting me from this game, which is something I respected, especially through the clever way he did it. Now some of the moves were done by Tetra as well (I mean in survivor a lot of moves are made with others) But I think he had a bigger hand in it. He managed to turn a losing hand into a winning one. I knew he was dangerous and I knew he was a threat to my game. I tried to get him out, but I let Colin distract me, and I got as blindsided as to what my alliance was doing when I wanted another push on Eldin as Vee did when she was booted. I want to cast my vote for Eldin to win. He outwitted everyone. He outplayed everyone. But he didn't outlast everyone. For whatever reason, his comments to the jury were minimal. Tetra is out there fighting for everyone's vote. Eldin is MIA. The effort, the passion, the chutzpah that I am seeing from Tetra shows she's still standing. She's still fighting. Eldin... It is my opinion that you should have won this game. I want to vote for you. But I won't. You didn't post in my thread. You didn't post in Navi's thread. You didn't post in Bow-Wow's thread. I don't blame you for not posting in Epona or SK's threads. But I wish you had posted in my/Navi's/Bow-Wow's thread. If you stood up for yourself, and showed that you still wanted it, I'd have voted for you. But there's no fight left in you. It's why I ultimately wanted to vote out Colin. His heart wasn't in this game. He basically gave up fighting. And it looks like you did too. And that makes me B( Tetra. You're still fighting for it. And that's why I'm voting for you. It's the only reason I'm voting for you. It's not that you've played poorly, you played rather well. Your social connections were better than Eldin's were. I like that when this jury, the most vehemently bitter jury I have seen pushed you, you unapologetically pushed back and told it like it was. With that, you earn my respect, and my vote. I vote for Tetra to win |

I think I misinterpreted Eldin's absence and I counted it a bit harsh against him. Let me try to weight this out. Eldin: Pros: Pulled off a long con which removed me from the game. This was important because over the course of several rounds, he managed to turn a losing situation into a winning one, Not only succeeding in tearing apart the majority alliance, which Tetra had tried to do before and failed, but getting that alliance to turn on the one person who actually had the power to make this reversal of fortune fall apart. Personally, I am a bit surprised that the bluff worked so well, but it did and thus it was legendary. Eldin is also a nice guy and a standup guy. He was pleasant to talk to. Cons: Weak social game. In this game you do only truly work with so many people, but for the most part you are still talking to everyone. I sounds bad for me to say based on the sacrifices he apparently made in his real life to be playing this game, but his lack of communication with people in this game made him a target more than once. Even if I did try to start working with him my concern would have been would he have been reliable. A good social game is all about connections. Does this person like me enough to keep me around? Does this person think that maybe they can work with me in the future if things go south for them, putting me in an advantageous position? Does this person like me/respect my game enough to vote me in the end. It was really hit and miss whether I heard from Eldin or not. Like I said, it was nice when he did talk to me, but it was too infrequent for his interactions with me to be helpful for his game. In fact they were more negative to his game. As I mentioned before, he was a target in part because of it. It's up to each individual how much they put into it, but this game requires a lot of effort and commitment. If I routinely expect not to hear from you for days, it's going to look from my end that you aren't giving a lot into this game. Tetra: Pros: Comparatively better social game. Right through the end she was there fighting for her place in this game. You were always playing this game. You were fun to talk to from the get go. I think you entered into the merge in a better positions because of you social game. Vee trusted you to her downfall for example. You had better connections with some of us because of our time on Kokiri and Gerudo. You answered the jury questions with a non-nonsense attitude, with chutzpah, spunk, and charisma, like you played this entire game. Cons: I think you said it yourself, a lot of luck brought you here. But luck brought both of you here. Part of this game is luck. You played an under the radar game that did seem to lend itself more to social elements rather than many strategic plays. Maybe they just blend together too much that I can't tell where you actually made a move or not. There are good reasons to vote for either one of you to win, and good reasons not to vote for each of you. You guys both played very well. Eldin, I'm sorry to hear about what's happening in your life right now and I hope things go well with you. Tetra, it's been a real great experience interacting with you and your character. I vote for Tetra to win. Coming into this, I thought I would be voting for Eldin, hands down. Things changed when Tetra gave what I thought were great answers dealing with the most bitter jury I have seen. Eldin was nowhere to be found and I was concerned that without his answers to my and others' questions I felt cheated out of being able to make an informed choice. But after sleeping on it, and thinking about it, and getting insight into why Eldin hadn't been around, I went to rethink my vote. The FTC isn't the only thing I should be judging the two finalists on. It's their entire game play, including but not limited to the FTC. Although Eldin had more important things to take care of, his absence from the jury questions was not as negative as I had perceived it. I had felt last night that his absence didn't allow me a chance to even consider him. After thinking about things, this is not the case. I have weighed both of them on their merits throughout the game and come to my conclusion. Had he been around, he would have had a greater chance at receiving my vote. But RL is more important. This is a silly game. Looking at overall game play, I have come to the decision that Tetra is the one who I want to win this game. |
