Gratz guys
Sierra: gj sry i was a dick
Nay: Sorry I went inactive and essentially tanked our alliance, I had fun talking to you when I was active.
Steph: ok cool
I'm covering the please compare each juror to questions this time, so each of you just pick two to do, and explain your picks pls super important. You can choose from the following:
Compare each juror to a Kanye West song Compare each juror to a House from ASOIAF/Game of Thrones (close 2 fabs ik but deal with it) Compare each juror to New England Patriots player Compare each juror to a character from LOTR (bonus points if you get that tight Silmarillion shit) Compare each juror to a kind of cheese Compare each juror to a League of Legends pro player Compare each juror to a Razzy-award winning movie

Okay I did the Kayne one for my first question. Yah I know these are mostly basic, radio song choices, but I think they fit their respective players. I put some lyrics that stand out for me for each song too. I'll do one of the other questions once I figure out enough about one of the topics..prob the Patriots one. Oh yah and it's in somewhat of a random order, my b.
Fabio = Four, Five Seconds
This song epitomizes how Fabio and I felt at various points in the game. We talked several times about watching our allies make, from our point of view, strategic missteps and how frustrating it was. But we turned that into fuel (less angry than Rihanna/Kayne though) and almost made it to the end together. “if I go to jail tonight, promise you’ll pay my bail” – I would undoubtedly bail Fabs out of jail. In a game sense it can be interpreted as I would without a doubt have gone to bat for Fabio and I think he would have for me too. “woke up an optimistic, sun was shinin’, I’m positive" – We were always positive, but then something else would go wrong for us, or as Kayne put it ‘then I heard you was talking trash’.
Brandon = Runaway
I think this speaks for itself? <3. You kinda fucked shit up for me in this game, but I would without a doubt toast many a drinks to you because I enjoyed you too.
“you been putting up with my shit just way too long” – Like I said you did some rouge things, but I loved you until the end. “baby I got a plan, runaway as fast as you can” – I feel like this describes how I felt not taking you to the trove and distancing myself in a way. I think you would have understood though and told me this.
Sierra Dawn = Good Life
This is a fun upbeat song and Sierra Dawn is definitely that kind of person. We always had good, light-hearted convos before I voted her (twice). Had she survived and I went out at the final 7 then I think she’d almost certainly be sitting here and probably be in a good position to win so that’s a #goodlife. “haters give me them salty looks” – Sierra gets undeserved hate sometimes, but she just keeps doing her. “I got to shine. Now throw ya hands up in the sky” – Sierra had a lot of fans in the game and one person who’s openly admitted to playing for her or in other words Steph’s hands were up in the air for her.
Ian = All of the Lights
All eyes (the lights) were on Ian at various points in the game. He didn’t seem to mind at all though. The video comes with an epilepsy warning and Ian’s comments had a similarly triggering effect on some. “Getting mine, baby, gotta let these negros know, yeah” – Ian was in a one person battle against several people, but didn’t back down. Getting his and owning it. “her mother, brother, grandmother hate me in that order” – A lot of people hated Ian because of his comments about Sierra
Joaquin = Welcome to Heartbreak
I think the song captures a conflicted person perfectly and it seemed like Joaquin was a conflicted person in the game. He used his vote stealer in a way that would separate himself from Sierra and Matty (and I think give him a shot at maybe winning), but then went to rocks because of the value he had for his friendships. “can’t stop having these visions. I gotta get with it and my head keeps spinning.” – I imagine the 48 hours or however long that vote lasted was filled with a lot of conflicting thoughts, like any big strategic decision. “chased the good life my whole life long. Looked back on my life and my life gone” – Having that happen is exactly what it seems Joaquin didn’t want to happen; winning but at the cost of friendships.
Matty = Diamonds from Sierra Leone
Matty had to work hard in the game just like diamond miners in Sierra Leone that Kanye gives a shoutout to throughout the video. The Diamonds are forever part can also be allegorical to the strong relationship that he and his allies shared that helped them to go far together. Plus it says Sierra in the tittle, with whom Matty was always associated. “I remember I couldn't afford a Ford Escort or even a four-track recorder, so its only right that I let the top drop on a drop-top Porsche” – Matty went from being in a potentially vulnerable position earlier on to having a lot of power later on. “diamonds forever” – forever cursed as fifth place apparently. Coach = Stronger
This was Coach’s strongest showing in the series and he probably could have gone further if not for the double vote twist. The prejury placements that didn’t kill his drive; they only made him stronger. “Th-th-that don’t kill me, can only make me stronger” – Coach came into the game without a reputation to protect and I think that gave him a stronger, more focused mindset than the other times he played. From what I’ve heard he always had a positive outlook on his previous prejury placements too. “So go ahead, go nuts, go apeshit” – I’m sure that’s what Coach especially did when it was announced jury had (finally) started. Alec = Power
Alec was a great, powerful player. A 21st century style game player doing something mean to it, if you will. But he was blindsided by the life saver, so some people must have been thinking it was too much power for one person. “No one man should have all the power. The clock’s tickin’, I just count the hours” – I saw Alec as an extremely powerful player in the game and because of that I knew that I could never go to the end with him. “Got treasures in my mind, but couldn’t open up my own vault” – It was a treasure trove item that took Alec out of the game and he never even had a chance to go there and get something to protect himself. "the system broken, the school's open, the prison's open. We ain't got nothin' to lose, motha fuckas, we rollin'" - Given what a shock Alec's boot was for those of us on the warriors side of things, I personally at least had a sense of urgency after it that I think this line captures.

Compare each juror to a kind of cheese
fabio - Västerbottensost. i picked this bc it's a very bitter cheese <3
matty - Chhena. i picked this bc it's a dessert cheese and i could eat matty like a dessert
joaquin - Molbo. it's a very light cheese, some would say it's invisible for eight rounds in a row lmao <3
sierra dawn - Rodoric. this cheese is very fucking sweet, but after it ages a while its spicy as FUCK <3
brandon - Swiss. you had a lot of holes in you this game you big ass flake, but you still taste good.
coach - Tyroleon gray. a very powerful cheese that has to be eaten quickly before it goes bad
alec - the kind of cheese you talk to once all game and its the day he gets voted out
