Hype Survivor: Mods vs Members - Day 14: All Good Things....

[JewishHobbit]

I never expected to make final 2 this game so my main goal was to see SF get his win. I of course wanted to win once I got here but if I had to lose I'm glad I lost how I did.


So now who's the best player to have never won the game? POWder? Did he win one before retiring?

 

[Matt]

Alex.

Good game, JewHob.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Why you jerks, I...wait, I won? I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

I seriously can't believe I finally got a dubyuh! The monkey is off the back, WOOOOOOTZILLA!!!!!

JewHob man, you played a good game and glad I got to play beside ya. You're a worthy opponent

I know I said this before, but Kal...You're my bro dude! I really couldn't have gotten this far in this game or past ones without ya!

CC, I know we have had....differences to say the least in the past, but glad I got to work with you in this game as well. I know it ended a bit muddy, but I can see your reasonings gamewise, and no harm done

Craig, in this game one of the brightest spots was getting to know ya better, and I hope we can shoot the breeze more

Parker, I think you're gonna develop into a solid player broski. You made a gutsy call late, and while it cost ya, it shows initiative. I think you have the buildings of a good player.

Matt, thanks for hosting a fun game and being around for some of my prior defeats and guiding me through what I did right/wrong

Thank you guys for picking me. I can now do this with confidence. With a win now under my belt, I am officially retiring as a player. I may play again one day under interesting circumstances, but for the time being, I am stepping away from gameplay. With this win, I feel my career is complete. I will still host, judge, and give advice to people who ask. But, it would take a lot for me to comback anytime soon. I think the era of SF, Kal, and CC needs to be handed down to the next generation of players, and we should all take a step back and let them all learn the game themselves.

With that said...I know someone who is yelling at me for being on the computer too much, LOL! So, I have sign off for a while and enjoy the moment.

Thanks once again everybody! I had loads of fun in this game and glad I decided to be a part of it

 

[Spider-Fan]

I seriously don't know how to process this right now, LOL! When ya chase something for a while, and you get it....I just don't know how to react.

 

[Kane52630]

You forgot to thank me for something, ya jerk!

 

[Matt]

: A well deserved win.

 

[KALEL114]

Great game Matt and HR. Thanks for putting the time into it and making it fun.

 

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

And so the end is near, we have reached the final curtain!....In my mind SML has already won but we'll let this play out.

You only think that because sometimes we talk about....things....in messages.

Ha. Kidding. But thanks.

& congrats to SF on the win. Well deserved.

 

[POWdER-man]

Congrats SF on getting your ever elusive Survivor win. Knowing you it was well deserved.

 

[Matt]

To answer Jewhob's question about the best player to not have a W, now that Spider-Fan has one, I'd say it is probably Hunter or POWdER.

 

[The Squirrel]

Well the kid finally got one.

 

[ComicChick]

Heh I could see what you mean when you said you were intentionallly trying to lose at competitions with that grid.

I agree. Very visually appealing and fits the overall game theme perfectly. I have been wondering, though. Which God was I CC? Been meaning to ask, but kept forgetting during the early part of the game, lol.

you expect me to still remember? lol

i'm almost certain you were Poseidon. people usually just associate him with the sea, but he also known as the "earth shaker" because of his role in earthquakes. i went with that cuz you like to shake things up lol

the finals ended up being between Hercules (jewhob) and Poseidon (spider-fan)

ones i do remember:

C.lee - zeus
spider-fan - poseidon
kalel - ares
matt - hades
'fire - hephaestus
cc - athena
sage - chronos

 

[ComicChick]

The four votes were ComicChick, SML28, Craig and Kal....

Congratulations to Spider-Fan. It is long overdue and a well earned win to one of our best Survivor players ever! :

i thought they were supposed to be anonymous? they always are

 

[craigdbfan]

Congrats SF and thanks for the compliment man that means a lot as I also enjoyed getting to know you better and it was my pleasure!

JewHob you did quite well too. I had a great time playing in this game and I thought most people really played it intelligently and those that did deserved to move as far as they got.

I'm grateful for Matt and Hunters contributions, organization, & effort they put into making this into a compelling tourney.

Thanks CC. I think Poseidon was a great choice for me, especially with the explanation

 

[Spider-Fan]

Woot! Congrats bro!

Great game JH.

Congratulations on finally winning Hype Survivor, Spider-Fan!

Booyah! Congrats SF!!! Long time coming.

YES! Yay to Fan

Get me a ginger ale to celebrate

t:t:t:

You forgot to thank me for something, ya jerk!

I have a great many things to thank you for, man. You've helped me a lot with Survivor, as a host very in particular with grids and various art, so thanks man

I would go with Powder myself. No offense to Hunter, but I just never played a game he was in and only co-hosted the one game he played. Powder I have more experience with, and I know exactly how strong a player/competitor he can be.

 

[ComicChick]

there are many suitable bridesmaids out there who have yet to find their groom (survivor win) lol

Very true. I just can't think of them off hand. It's been a while since I saw the excel document we used to have around. Does anyone still have that? I don't remember if that has been used in the last few games or not.

 

[enterthemadness]

Congrats Spider-Fan and runner up Jew-Hob. I honestly didn't pay much attention to this game, but from what I know seems like I missed out on a epic game.

i might have actually been supposed to be keeping up with that :uhoh:

 

[Spider-Fan]

We need to do some backlogging, LOL! I know Byrd won Oscar Night, and Matt won Big Brother. I don't think we ever updated after Oscar Night. Gotta look into if we did for Big Brother.

EDIT-Checking the final pages for Oscar Night, Big Brother, and Spy vs Spy, I see we never updated for any of those games. We need to do that one of these days (if you still have the document).

 

[Matt]

i thought they were supposed to be anonymous? they always are

I've always made jury votes public record. In-game votes are anonymous because of the strategic element, but I've always revealed jury votes.

Craig, you were without a doubt, our rookie of the year. I hope to see you playing again.

Hunter is, IMO, a better strategic player. In my experience both hosting and playing with him, POWdER dominates challenges and is strategically adept, but unable to really take it to the next level where he can entirely mastermind and run an entire game. Hunter is capable of that and to me, that gives him a slight edge. Bella has a win, but it is rightfully Hunter's who ran that game and voted himself out in order to give Bella the W (so in that regard he won).

That game is sadly before my time

My opinion would maybe be different had I witnessed him play some games. I just don't have much experience with him. But, I have experienced him as host/co-host t:
