## *Skatevivor* Career

## Profile

**Name:** Antony

**Age:** 24

**Pronouns:** he/him

**Timezone:** GMT+10

**Starting tribe:** Pearl

**Which survivor contestant would you say you are most like? Why?**

I'll be honest I've not watched much survivor, however a friend of mine compared me to Jay from MvGx. Mostly because I respect the game and I'm pretty easygoing and I have a strong social game, I also didn't come from much in my family so we have similar upbringings.
**What is your experience with ORGs (Online Reality Games)?**

I've played 3 other ORGs, Essential was my first where I came third in the FTC, DDORG where I placed 7th and Minks Survivor where I placed 13th
 **What is your strategy coming into the game?**

My strategy in this game is to fully utilize my social game, I was trying to play UTR in Minks, but like **my** version of UTR just ends up being a person still with a high threat level with not good enough social game for people to be loyal to me haha. So I'm just gonna fully embrace who I am, I'm known for having a very wack playstyle, but people say it somehow works.
**Would you rather get to the end and be hated or get voted out early and be loved?**

I'm usually an extremely loyal player, probably to a fault, I might be able to fix this because being a villain for a game sounds like fun, usually I'm just 100% with you until I know you're coming for me, then you're my enemy.
**Is there anything else you want the specs to know?**

I tend to voicecall to get to know people a lot, this usually changes the dyanmics of the game I feel, as the game becomes a lot more personable and information flows much faster.

## Survivor

Upon the announcement of the Marooning vote twist, Antony's plan was to lay low in the marooning chat to avoid drawing the vote to himself. But Antony stayed safe during the vote regardless when Flava didn’t show up at all and became the obvious target to be “voted out.” Antony was one of the first people to openly state in the marooning that he was voting for Flava. Flava eventually got online just 15 minutes before the votes were due, but the vote didn’t change, and Flava was exiled with 17 votes against him.

After the Marooning vote, Antony was placed on the dominant and quiet Pearl Tribe. Due to the tribe's winning streak, Antony was less active in confessionals but seemed to bond the most with Brandon and Dumpy.

During the swap, Antony was placed once again on the more dominant of the tribes, Sapphire 1.0. Sapphire 1.0 was made up of four Garnets (Rhone, Vivi, Joey, and Simone), three Pearls (Brandon, Antony, and Dumpy), and one Amethyst (Jamal), and went on to dominate the next two challenges. Antony was pulled into an original Pearl Tribe alliance, The Tummy Triplets, with Brandon and Dumpy, but also bonded with Simone who quickly moved up to number 2 in his trust rankings. Antony leaked The Tummy Triplets alliance to Simone and tried to throw Brandon and Dumpy under the bus for forming it in hopes that he could influence the vote come tribal, but nothing came of it since Sapphire 1.0 never attended tribal council.

The next swap saw Antony on Sapphire 2.0, still with his Sapphire 1.0 tribemates, Brandon, Rhone, Jamal, and Vivi. When Brandon grew suspicious about Jamal's closeness with the original Garnets after Vivi told him that Jamal was trying to set up an alliance with herself, Rhone, and Treavor, Brandon laid the groundwork for a majority alliance with himself, Antony, Vivi, and Olly called Groot.

After no one took the Greed necklace, Groot targeted Treavor using the knowledge Brandon had gathered that Vivi didn't trust him. The alliance led Rhone, Jamal, and Treavor to believe that Antony was the vote instead. Treavor threw his vote on Brandon in case Antony had an idol, but was blindsided in a 4-2-1 vote instead. During the next cycle, Antony voted for Rhone with the rest of the Groot alliance, believing that Rhone was be too hurt by the Treavor blindside to stay loyal to Sapphire 2.0 come merge.

At the merge, Antony didn't participate in the idol hunt when Vivi told him that the idol was already gone and Vivi shot to the top of his trust rankings. Before challenge results, Antony's name was brought up as a potential vote for inactivity, but his long time ally Brandon planned to try to save him. After Vivi won immunity, Joey started pushing for an Olly blindside. The Amethysts, particularly Nate and Kham, jumped on board with the Olly blindside plan with Joey as the decoy.

The merge vote shifted when Dumpy leaked the Olly blindside plan to Brandon, who leaked it to Olly and Vivi in a new alliance called Hmmmm. Dumpy, Vivi, Olly, and Brandon decided to vote out Kham and pulled in Simone and Antony. The subsequent scrambling led to the most chaotic tribal of the season, wherein Brandon and Antony's names were thrown out as targets. At tribal, Vivi played her Garnet idol on Brandon and Olly played Vivi's merge idol on himself. Dumpy threw their vote on Olly to try to cover their tracks and hide the fact that they were the one who leaked the Olly plan to Brandon, Olly, and Vivi. Kham was eliminated in a 5-4-1-~~1~~ vote, with Brandon receiving no votes against him and Olly negating Dumpy's rogue vote against him.

After the tumultuous merge vote, Antony believed Dumpy was the source of the chaos and would be a target for the next vote. Antony worked to convince Brandon that Dumpy wouldn't be the right move since they would continue to be seen as a chaos agent. Brandon ultimately agreed and convinced Vivi and Olly to save Dumpy and vote out Nate instead, who he claimed was the real architect of the merge vote chaos. Vivi and Olly hopped on board, and the three of them steered the vote towards Nate, who was voted out 7-2-1, with Joey and Nate voting Dumpy and Isabella voting Vivi out of spite.

At the Final 9, Brandon decided to make his move against Vivi and Olly. Knowing Olly still had the Pearl idol, Brandon rallied Simone, Antony, Jamal, and Dumpy to blindside Olly with the idol in his pocket, leaving Isabella, Olly, Vivi, and Joey in the dark by telling them the vote was Antony. Surprisingly, no one leaked the vote to Olly. However, Olly's intuition told him that he was being blindsided and he told Vivi and Isabella. Vivi didn't believe that they were actually being blindsided, but Isabella entertained the possibility. Olly and Isabella considered idoling out Brandon, but decided against it. Olly played the idol on himself, successfully negating the five votes against him, and sent Antony out of the game with just three votes against him.

As a member of the Jury, Antony was leaning toward giving his vote to Vivi, but Simone's strong FTC performance swayed his opinion and he ultimately voted for Simone to win the game.
