Survivor FOFC: The Final Tribal Council

stkelly52 · 05-13-2003, 03:44 AM

16 Survivors stranded on a message board. One by one they voted each other off untill just 2 remain, Ardent Enthusiast and Kodos. Now the very people they helped vote off will be the ones who will vote on who deserves the title: FOFC's Sole Survivor.

For this tribal council, unlike the others, you will be voting on who you want to win, not who who want to vote off. So if you send in your vote and you write "player A", then that means you want player A to be the winner, which would be really stupid because the only choices are Kodos and Ardent Enthusiast.

The following contestants submitted questions, so they are the only ones who are elegible to vote and should send thier vote to me by PM.
Coffee Warlord
John Galt
SplitPersonality1
Draft Dodger
McSweeny
Marmel
Swaggs
JeeberD
Radii

The FOFC as a whole gets one vote (the poll at the top of this page). HOWEVER, in the event of a tie (which can only happen if someone does not vote), the FOFC's vote will be cast out to determine the winner.

It is time to cast your vote.

stkelly52 · 05-13-2003, 10:42 AM

Well it looks like Kodos is off to the surprising lead in the popular vote. Can he take the 5 needed votes to win from the contestants?

Radii · 05-13-2003, 10:42 AM

I asked questions too!

I should be on the list that gets to vote.

stkelly52 · 05-13-2003, 11:01 AM

oops, yes you did, I'll edit that now

stkelly52 · 05-13-2003, 06:02 PM

Let's move this back onto the first page

Radii · 05-13-2003, 06:46 PM

I think we have the answer. People see Kodos' name and just start drooling wildly and thinking POLL POLL ITS A POLL and click next to Kodos

He wins whether him "winning" is a good or a bad thing!

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:04 AM

Interesting theory Radii. I was rather surprised that Kodos was winning this poll considering he has lost most of the other polls.

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 02:05 AM

Swaggs is the only survivor who has not yet cast his vote. Could his be the deciding vote?

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:00 PM

Ardent is catching up. Just one vote seperates the two.

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 12:06 PM

D'oh! That one vote is all that is saving me from a possible shutout loss.

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:13 PM

Or perhaps it is just what gives you a shut out win?

Poli · 05-14-2003, 12:21 PM

Just curious...when are you going to read the vote? I have 45 minutes of online time left and then I'm off for 12 hours. It would be nice to find out before I hit the rack, but not necessary.

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 12:22 PM

I'll believe that when I see it.

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:50 PM

OK, everyone has had plenty of time to vote. It is time to count the votes

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:50 PM

The first vote:
Kodos

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:51 PM

"I vote for Ardent to win"

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 12:51 PM

Nice job logging in with your 6 nicknames and voting for yourself Alien.

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:52 PM

"Gotta vote for the man defending our country, ardent..."

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:52 PM

"kodos is off, ardent is the winner"

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:54 PM

"Kodos had a funnier response, therefore I must vote AE off."

2-3, ardent is ahead

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:55 PM

"I vote for Kodos to win. He is going to need a lot of help to beat ardent, I think.

To be honest, I was hoping Radii would make it to the finals since I am having a difficult time choosing between former allies."

3-3, the score is tied

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:57 PM

"Were it not for Kodos' ingenious(though misguided) plot to get Marmel out of the game, I never would have survived... I vote for Kodos to win the game."

4-3 Kodos

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:58 PM

"Ardent Enthusiast"

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 12:59 PM

The score is tied at 4 votes each

There is just one vote left...Now for a word from our sponsor

heybrad · 05-14-2003, 01:01 PM

If Kodos wins I hope he doesnt do... "some sort of self-aggrandizing pose or facial expression."

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:02 PM

If Kodos wins this will be the worst Jury since........

well, Sunday night's Survivor!

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:02 PM

Hey brad

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:03 PM

Drat! first time I try a hey brad, and someone gets a post in there first

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:07 PM

Are we going to have a reunion show?

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:07 PM

Well I guess I should read the final vote:

"Ardent Enthusiast - down with the Ricky Martin-loving alien!"

Lady and Gentlemen, the winner of Survivor FOFC I

Ardent Enthusiast

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 01:10 PM

Congrats to Ardent! Strikes a pose, then realizes that he has lost - pretends he is stretching

And Marmel - I did NOT stuff the ballot box!

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:12 PM

Congrats Ardent.

Also, glad to see the Alien get his.

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:12 PM

By the way, the vote that was just added up above will not make any difference, Kodos still doesn't win.

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:13 PM

dola.

Thanks to stkelly for taking a lot of time to do this entire survivor game. You did it very well stkelly!

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 01:15 PM

Yeah, this was fun stkelly! Thanks for taking the time and effort to run the show. I just wish we had had more active participation! Thanks to everyone who voted for me - and damn you, Ricky Martin. You cost me the game!

McSweeny · 05-14-2003, 01:15 PM

yes, well done stkelly

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:15 PM

With all the big talk about shutouts and what not, I was surprised by how close the vote was.

How is it that the guy who frequently couldn't even make it to the challenges never got voted off?

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 01:15 PM

He was in the right alliance.

I couldn't bring myself to vote for the guy who was missing the challenges because he was on his way to the Persian Gulf. It would have been un-American...

Radii · 05-14-2003, 01:20 PM

What marmel said

This was a very well run game and you deserve a ton of credit for it stkelly.

I'm sure it's pretty clear which vote was mine, but just in case:

"Were it not for Kodos' ingenious(though misguided) plot to get Marmel out of the game, I never would have survived... I vote for Kodos to win the game."

in terms of alliances, I was just lurking along the entire time and wasn't active at all in trying to form anything. the only reason I made the final 3 was because Kodos brought me along on it when he decided to make a push to get rid of Marmel. I think getting Marmel out of the competition made the endgame a lot more wild and exciting, and because of all that, Kodos had my vote the entire time. I did seriously consider voting for Ardent because of how well thought out his response to my final question was, but I stuck with Kodos anyway.

Great game guys

stkelly52 · 05-14-2003, 01:21 PM

From my impressions, I always felt that Marmel was in control of the game until he was voted off. Would you say that is accurate, and is so, where did he go wrong?

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:26 PM

If I was in fact in control (which I really am not sure of), I went wrong in my response to Ardent's email, and then not telling Kodos what I told Ardent. I should have just said, I don't know, vote with your heart, or said Kodos, but told Kodos that I had to tell him something.

I guess I just didn't feel like putting the time into sending out another PM., and that might have cost me.

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 01:26 PM

I think he went wrong by assuming the leadership role in the first place. That always makes you a target (just watch the real Survivor). People like to see the guy who is running the show fall.

I'm glad I could make that happen!

That being said, I would have stuck with his alliance if I didn't have strong reason to believe that he was plotting against me. It just seemed like he was aligning against me in his last round, so I started the rebellion to save my green alien hide.

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:28 PM

Kodos, I flat out told you the only person I at least had a chance to beat in the Final 2 was you, so I wanted to take you along to the final 2 and vice versa.......did you not get that message?

Kodos · 05-14-2003, 01:30 PM

I got that message. But it was after my suspicions had been formed and the rebellion had been made. I figured it was just trying to keep me off guard, since I had gotten wind of the fact that you had promised just about everyone that they would be in the final three with you and Splits.

Marmel · 05-14-2003, 01:32 PM

hehe. You are so damn goofy. You, splits and I were the original 3 person alliance. What the heck was I supposed to tell everybody else when they asked? We obviously needed more than 3 people to vote others out earlier in the game.

The original, original plan was me and splits, but as the game moved on, I realized I could never beat him in the final 2, and you were the only person that at least gave me a chance. I suspect you would have won this whole thing if you didn't break the alliance because if you only lost to ardent by 1, you would have beat me by a couple votes.
