Terry Dimple

Terry was a castaway on Essential Survivor: 
==Yemen==
Terry was one of the top contenders during the premerge. A truly exceptional player who positioned himself extremely well without people catching on. Even in the swapped phase of the game, coming into a 3-2 minority with a tribemate who he didn’t even trust, he still managed to do all of the right things to position himself in a domineering spot. Unfortunately, Terry’s actions finally caught up with him as he landed in 12th Place. Let’s see how. 
Beginning on the Extroverts tribe, Terry ended up in an early majority alliance consisting of Owen, Alison, James, Felix, and Khamp. Although this alliance had no real substance as they ended up breaking in half, they stayed together long enough for Terry to recognize that Khamp was a good social player. And this is only the start of Terry;’s observations regarding Khamp. After the first TC where Tony was quickly booted, everyone was confused about the vote count. While the tribe consensus was Tony, the vote ended up being 6-2-1-1 (6 Tony, 2 Cass, 1 Joshua, 1 Owen). Terry knew that Cass self voted due to inactivity, but he was having trouble solidifying who that 2nd Cass vote was. This is important to note later.
As time went on, Terry started to pick up that the majority alliance definitely had some further layers than he expected. He began to realize that Khamp and Alison were a tight duo and wanted to break that up immediately. Specifically, Khamp. Although, he wanted to do this while not upping his threat level. As he wanted to be the least threatening in his trio of himself, James and Felix. Both of whom he really trusted. With now 2 tribal immunity wins after the Tony boot, not much was happening. Terry continued to distrust Khamp which wasn’t a surprise. However, what was a surprise was how Terry began to catch onto Felix. Realizing that he wasn’t the only person Felix shared crucial info with. It didn’t change his perception of him too much though as they remained to closely align. 
Now, the Extroverts have lost their second challenge and the once majority alliance has now fully broken up. Alison, Khamp and Owen split one way while James, Terry and Felix split another. Ready to kick off his campaign towards Khamp leaving, a voting bloc is formed between Terry’s trio with Joshua and Matt. Matt, as he was clearly the other side’s target and Joshua as he was picked up from the bottom of the tribe, resulting in Terry being shaky about him flipping (which in reality could’ve been Felix) but nonetheless, the five stuck strong to the plan and voted out Khamp. Terry knew that he was in control of the game at this point, so as he got cocky in his confessional entries, a swap was just waiting to screw everything up.
During the swap, Terry was put in a bad 3-2 minority split with Cedrick, Josh and Preston. His only ally was Cass, but he managed to squash all previous ties he had with her to forward themselves in the game. The first thing to do when in a minority, is to try and find a crack in the majority. The clear crack in the majority was Josh, due to his inactivity but Josh also expressed wanting to work with Terry, so he had 2 options. Either pull Josh in, or rat him out. 
After 2 swapped challenge wins and a whole lot of 0 development, Mahjuz finally loses a challenge and it's all in the hands of Terry. But instead of taking the smarter route and voting him out, they voted out Cass… for some reason? Even Terry was bamboozled but didn’t let it cloud his gameplay, Mahjuz lost another challenge right after that, but the vote was nowhere NEAR just a 3-1 Terry vote. 
Remember when Terry thought Josh was the crack in the Mahjuz 3? Yeah, well there was a far deeper crack between Cedrick and Preston. Terry first chose to align with Preston and take out Cedrick with a 2-1-1 plan. (Him and Pres vote Cedrick, Cedrick votes Josh and Josh votes Terry) But after thinking it over, Terry registered that it’d be more beneficial to align with Cedrick for this vote as it rewards more long-term benefits. And now with Josh on-board with the Preston vote, it looked like Terry was covered on all bases. If everyone’s telling the vote about their votes, Preston goes home 3-1. If Preston plays an idol, his vote would be on Cedrick and Terry still survives. However, that 2nd scenario was half-right. Preston DID play his idol and negate 3 votes, but he placed his vote onto Terry and not Cedrick, knowing how much of a threat he’d be in the upcoming merge.
