280. George (Axxle)- Hogwarts


Image

Thread Title: Welcome George; 1st Place
Thank you, thank you! I couldn't have done it without you all!


George is a classic example of a cockroach who keeps being in danger and keeps surviving. George started on Hufflepuff where he was the least connected active member, but he was more active than Ron, so he survived. At the swap, George ended up on a tribe with Lupin, who had literally never signed in since the swap so even though George wasn't in a great spot, he was kept around.

It's now the final 14, and after a fake merge, the players left in the game rank each other based on who they like. George finishes second to last. Luckily for him however, the ranking turns out to be for a swap and all the people nobody likes (plus Klick and DV) end up on the same tribe, and George is able to make it to merge. He's supposed to be in the majority but the other side has an idol. Even though there were bigger threats they could have gone after, George gets idoled out because George was the one person in the majority that the minority could all agree on.

This is also an Axxle character, which means that there's some fun shitposting in public, but other than that, there isn't much to George's character.

Now, cockroach stories are one of the most fun character arcs. But the problem that I have with George is that it's not even an interesting cockroach story. Nobody hated George, they just found him bland and boring, and George survived by having the good luck of always being on a tribe where there was someone who was less active/less social than him. There's also a much better "Nobody likes him but keeps surviving anyway" storyline in Hogwarts in Voldemort.

5 games left that haven't had a jury member cut yet. (Sky Pillar, Doctor Who, Arkham City PSV and Eon)

Spoiler: attempt at guessing which of these will be the last surviving complete jury
Next to go (first of each jury)
Birthday Cake - Pretty Super Vanilla
Gyarados - Sky Pillar (I have no idea and haven't read that game, 6th place looks good to me)
Greninja - Eon
Arm-Fall-Off Boy - Arkham City
Stormageddon - Doctor Who

I am not confident in any of these, but i need something else to predict and these are probably still all ages off and are more based around where I feel their impacts in the game lead rather than direct entertainment value which I don't feel confident in judging

I almost cut myself in Doctor Who, that was a tought crowd, but I decided to ignore the fact I was there.

I can change to Cherrim for Shy Pillar based solely on posts in the confessional, but i still know nothing about that game.

I was apparently a member of said birthday cake fan club .I was obviously not a good fan club member :(

Although while checking that I was a 'member' I did find this prediction about myself

279. Gobias (DoctorPepper) - Greece


Image
"And I know there cant be a fucking power struggle here, because I WILL NOT SURVIVE WHEN THIS ALLIANCE BECOMES OUTNUMBERED."


Gobias pretty much floated through the pre-merge, liking the people everyone else liked and not being a particularly relevant force. He apparently seems to wake up around merge time and realize that he is very expendable. He decides he wants to collect the swing votes and try to take out some big players! Wow, exciting! Unfortunately, instead of doing that, he instead decides to try to pagong Cergio for ??? reasons.

Midway through the merge, "I think I am?" really isn't a good thing to have to say when asked if you're in any alliances.

As someone who lived through this, Gobias was immensely frustrating to deal with. He seemed to know he was on the bottom with his alliance, but when he was told said alliance was trying to to vote him out, his reaction was "naaaaaaaaah I don't believe you bye." He refused to listen to factual events, believing apparently that he would not be betrayed because he was not a threat, and didn't give Cergio the time of day.

Not shockingly, when Cergio turned the game around, they didn't see much reason for him to continue existing.

278. Garrus Vakarian (kdowns) - Mass Effect


Image

"I purposely took myself out of the game because I didn't want to get dragged into F2 and get slaughtered.

Garrus seems similar in a lot of ways to kdowns' other 4th place game, Glenn, who was cut a while ago. Like Glenn, Garrus played a pretty UTR game most of the way, where he was towards the bottom of the majority alliance throughout the post-merge. Also, like Glenn, he had plans to take out the power players in the last stretch, but none of those plans ultimately came to fruition. The reasons why Garrus never made a move don't seem especially clear, but it seems he was never able to get the numbers on his side. However, I think Garrus had a little bit more of an arc than Glenn did, which makes him a moderately better character.

Garrus started on the AAMU tribe, where there were two easy inactives to boot in Mordin and Jack. After the swap he found himself in danger, where Samara joined with Kasumi and Narom to form a majority on Cyanide. Garrus may have been eliminated at this TC, but Tali, Garrus' secret cross-tribal partner, was able to use a reward item to give him immunity. With Garrus immune, the majority #blindsided Joker instead.

After the merge, Garrus worked with Tali, Liara, and his original tribe member Harbinger. While Garrus seemed to have a master plan to cause a power shift and eliminate the threats, ultimately he ended up in the Final 4 with his entire alliance. After Harb won immunity, Garrus decided to quit so that Tali would not be voted off, and Garrus would not be taken to the end as a FTC goat. In reality, Garrus was going to be voted off, anyway, but the situation created a nice bit of conclusion with the Garrus/Tali arc, in that they both saved each other from elimination. Sort of.
