John Weber

**John Weber** was a contestant on Survivor: Blood vs. Water: Redemption Island and Survivor: Last Chance.

A quiet strategist, John played the quiet route for parts of the game, soaking up information as much as he could to help him make decisions as to which side would benefit him the most to vote with in his first season. However, this led people to distrust him, and he was swiftly taken out once people caught onto his strategy. In his second appearance, John's stealthy gameplay would make him an early target, and he would swiftly be eliminated when he was dealt a rough hand at a tribe swap.

## Survivor: Blood vs. Water: Redemption Island

John would begin the game on the successful Tribe Natalie, where he would help his tribe to win the first three immunity challenges of the season. At camp, he would make alliances with Cody and Nathan and he would bond with the rest of his tribe, becoming very well-liked by everyone.

However, a tribe swap would add some spice to his then-quiet game, as he was quickly thrust into survival mode when he heard his name get tossed out when his new tribe lost the next immunity challenge. Not wanting to go against the majority and ruffle any feathers just yet, he decided that his best bet would be to ultimately help to vote out Breanne in a unanimous 4-1 vote, sending her to Redemption Island and being replaced by Lea on their tribe. When the new Tribe Natalie lost the next immunity challenge, John was immediately the target. However, he would quickly agree with Vin's plan to take Kathy out of the game, with the both of them noting how great the move was due to her connections to multiple people on the other tribe combined with the impending merge. At tribal council, John would receive a vote from Lea, but it would not be enough to force him into the tiebreaker vote that would occur between Kathy and Lea, with the former being voted out in a 2-1 vote with John's help.

Despite his initial shock at Breanne's return to the game, it would be the least shocking thing for him to hear, as he would be approached by Cody and Breanne, alongside Nathan and Lita, in regards of Christian's ever-increasing threat status, now thanks to his involvement in the *Jersey Alliance*. It was because of this that John knew he was safe at tribal council as he voted Christian, despite losing the first individual immunity challenge to Breanne. However, he would get a random vote thrown at him by Corey, who was getting weary of John.

After he lost the next individual immunity challenge to Corey, John would quickly help to set a target on Breanne to secure his safety, all the while being concerned with his chances of going forward as people started to question if they could trust him if he would turn on someone he was just working with. Although Breanne would be the next voted out at that tribal council, his gameplay would come back to haunt him the next round, as people set their sights on him and Corey after Cody won the next individual immunity challenge. While John would initially be successful at pushing the target onto Corey, his opponent would have other plans for that tribal council. Corey would play a hidden immunity idol on himself, causing a tied vote between him and Lea. In the tiebreaker, John's threat status in the game as a continuously unpredictable swing voter was more threatening, and he paid the price for it. John would place 8th out of 14th and would become the third member of the jury.

At the Final Tribal Council, John would congratulate the finalists and would draw inspiration from Christian's earlier question to Em for his question to Lea and Vin, asking them about their biggest move in the game that helped them to get to their spot. Satisfied by his game, John would cast his vote for Vin to win the season, having much respect for his game.

## Survivor: Last Chance

Back for his second chance, John joined the Targaryen Tribe along with Elizabeth, Jake, Jack D., JP, Kyle, Maggie, and Tom and they would be immediately thrown into their first immunity challenge of the season in a narrow race against the other tribe. Back at camp, the men would all quickly align with each other, due to most of them having a close bond with each other outside of the game, and the men would quickly agree to vote off Elizabeth. In private, John would relay his plan and would vocalize his future plans to get rid of Maggie if they had to go to a second Tribal Council after voting off his current target. However, what John was unaware of was that his name was already being thrown around by Elizabeth and Maggie, both fighting for their spots in the game and were using his name as a scapegoat after a conversation with his ally, Tom. At Tribal Council though, the women's efforts were of no use, and John would be saved in a 6-2 vote as Elizabeth would become the first person voted out of the game.

After Tribal Council, John and his tribemates were immediately welcomed by their new tribemate, Jack M., who was replacing Elizabeth after being exiled in the Solo Room the first round, and they would all bond with each other as they headed to their next challenge. At the immunity challenge, John and his tribe would have much difficulty with each other, as Jack M.'s actions during the challenge would put them behind for parts of the challenge, of which they would end up losing. Back at camp, John would immediately be tossed out as an option once more, as Jake would attempt to convince their tribemates that John would be a big threat later in the game. In private, John would express his concerns about being a target, citing that no one was talking to him, and that it might be "scramble season" for him as he planned to vote for Jack M. at Tribal Council. Luckily for John, he seemed to have some allies with him, and his entire tribe was more upset with Jack M., so much so that he was included in on a few conversations where they planned to vote off Jack M. for his performance at the challenge. At Tribal Council, John would be spared and Jack M. was unanimously eliminated in a 7-1 vote, with John not even getting Jack M.'s sole vote, which went to Jake.

Although John seemed to be in a weird spot in the game, a tribe swap would seem to present potential for John to see greener grasses within the game. However, John would be put onto Tribe Parvati alongside Ashley, Kyle, Lita, and Maggie, seemingly in a worse spot now than before. At the next immunity challenge, John and Kyle would be blindfolded together, and an accident would end up costing their tribe the win as they would drop their bucket and waste too much time searching for their bucket, sending him back to Tribal Council once more. At camp, John would attempt to search for their tribe's hidden immunity idol as Ashley and Maggie would immediately align with each other as they both attempted to pull in Lita to vote off John. John would then talk to Kyle, who would essentially accidentally reveal that he was conversing with the women to vote off John, who now decided to try to convince the women to target Kyle. In private, John would talk about how he was able to identify how he knows Kyle's intentions, and talked about how his safest route was to get Kyle voted out of the game, despite him wanting to try to sway Lita to vote off Ashley. At Tribal Council, John would vote against Kyle, predicting that this would be the last time he would cast a vote against someone. Unfortunately, John would be proven right, as he would be eliminated in a 4-1 vote due to him being seen as a good player that the others did not want to go up against later in the game. John would be the third person voted out of the game, placing 15th out of 17th.
