Mary Wakefield

**Days Lasted:** | 37

**Mary Wakefield** is a contestant from *Simvivor: Lucky Palms*.

## Profile

Mary is a mother of eight, having just shipped her youngest triplets off to university. Gifted by the fertility gods, Mary has had all eight of her children through natural means, but all within 3 pregnancies! Admittedly, Mary never takes time away from her kids for herself, so she applied for *Simvivor* to challenge what she can do in a game like this. Growing up, Mary was an athletic Sim that was partially ashamed of her Alien heritage, but raising her children has made her appreciate her bloodline unlike ever before. A green thumbed Sim, Mary believes that her outdoorsy inclination can make her an asset to her tribe. Can this nurturer-at-heart let go of her inhibitions and play boldly?

## Simvivor

Mary began *Lucky Palms* feeling insecure of herself. The first Alien Sim to compete without a disguise to mask her identity, Mary remarked that she felt completely exposed. Although Mary suffered a major nervous breakdown in the start of the game, she recovered by the time her Sahara tribe attended Tribal Council. From there, Mary showed her true strengths in her social game by connecting with each tribemate on a personal level. By the sixth episode, Mary joked that she was beginning to grow restless without voting people out.

Once she reached the merge, Mary decided to make a conscious effort to connect with everyone remaining in the game. Going along with the majority for the first three votes, Mary took action and flipped on her original tribe member Mohamed Zayd to prove her loyalty to the remaining women in the game. Mary had a brief struggle against Aaiyah Lazcano at the final six - thanks to the previous-votes tiebreaker, Mary survived a deadlock. This survival did leave her marked as the next to go, though, and Mary had to adapt her socially-conscious strategy to one of survival-at-all-costs. Winning favor with Ebony Ward, she convinced her to vote off former Bloom member Tibby Ford.

Mary made it into the final four with very little left to her game and only one target left in her way: Jordynn Glazier. However, Mary also recognized the true threat in Ebony, as well as her close ally Nicki Blakeley. Anxious and ready to make a move, Mary contemplated voting out Jordynn, but the two connected and chose to do Ebony together, knowing that Ebony had many previous votes against her, too. But Mary was unaware of Jordynn's double-crossing nature, and at an explosive Tribal Council, Mary was blindsided in an unforgettable 2-1-1 vote.

On the jury, Mary asked hard-hitting questions to both finalists, but decided to vote for Nicki, respecting her competition wins.

### Voting History

**^1**  In Episode 11, the vote ended with a 3-3 tie between Mary and Aaiyah, forcing a revote. Nobody changed their vote on the revote, eliminating Aaiyah due to prior votes at Tribal Council.
