Description
:

Another game where the lack of old FGC has killed my ability to recollect many important details about who played as which character and who placed where. I'm hoping that since many of the players that I remember still post here, they might be able to help me fill in some of the blanks.

I do remember having a great time cohosting this game with the wonderful Valerie/snowydayze, whose presence is missed dearly at this board. <3 I also remember it being SERIOUSLY dramatic. Eliza and Ethan, the final two, were especially devious—I'm almost positive that Eliza backstabbed almost every single person in the game, sometimes really cruelly, because that was just how she played at the time. Ultimately, that cost her the jury's votes, which at the time had Val and I pretty upset—while I like Ethan/Josh now, I didn't back then, and unfortunately, his win was pretty underwhelming. (Sorry Josh, if you ever read this, but you've gotten a lot better as a player since then.)

I remember there being a lot of drama between Brooke W. and Danny, who became friends mid-game, and then became enemies and friends several more times over the following years. I remember there being a fake double-eviction at the final eight that was a pretty good twist. I also remember the final jury Q&A being brutal. There were a lot of great things about this game; I just wish they hadn't faded with time.

All in all, it was a stressful game to host, but really interesting to watch. Help me fill in more details please, people!
