## *Skatevivor* Career

## Profile

**Name:** Andrew

**Age:** 35

**Pronouns:** he/him

**Timezone:** EST

**Starting tribe:** Scully

**What is your name, age, timezone, pronouns, and occupation?** Andrew, 35, EST, He/Him, Balance Sheet Forecaster

**Which survivor contestant would you say you are most like? Why?** I usually say Fishbach for this one. I suppose it fits pretty well. I do best when I've got a good partner to complement my ~~lack of~~ social game.

**What is your experience with ORGs (Online Reality Games)? What is your strategy coming into this game?** I've been playing since 2017 and I had a really good run through 2018. I was making ftc in almost half the games I played and winning them, but I haven't been back to another since I lost ftc for the first time. Did that break me? Have orgs changed too much since then? What do I need to do to get back there and fight for another W? Still trying to answer those questions. Strategically, I like to play a loyal game, help my premerge tribes out as much as possible, and pray that people see the value in keeping me around until it's too late to take me out.

**What do you think will make you stand out as a player to the spectators?** I like to put a good amount of effort into my confs, especially when the game is heating up. If I'm lacking, call me out because these games are just as much about the spec experience as they are about the players.

**Would you rather get to the end and be hated, or be voted out early and loved?** I love the ego boost that comes from getting out and learning that the spec lounge was a fan, but I play the game to win.

## Survivor

Andrew connected with his tribemates on the relatively quiet Scully Tribe easily and early, notably with Cadence and Nate D. Andrew suspected early on that Nate D could have the idol due to having the X-Files role but chose not to engage in the hunt himself.

When Scully lost the first immunity challenge, Rob sent DMs to Cadence, Nate D, Andrew, Moss, and Meghan in an attempt to establish alliances with each individual. Unfortunately, Rob’s decision to trust Nate D (despite some initial hesitation) proved to be a fatal folly. When Andrew and Nate D later compared notes on Rob, they discovered that they had received identical copy/pasted alliance proposals within moments of one another. Word quickly got out; Cadence, Moss, and Meghan discovered that they too had received identical messages, while Emily, Jamie, and Garrett realized they had been excluded from the conversation. Once everyone discovered the truth behind Rob’s ill-fated message, Scully banded together to unanimously boot out Rob.

Andrew was then swapped onto Scully 2.0, with original Scully tribemates Garrett, Jamie, Emily, and Moss along with original Mulder players Gia, Mani, and Alex. Andrew connected well with Mani and Alex and felt little loyalty to his original Scully tribemates, openly stating to both Mani and Alex that he would be willing to flip on his former tribemates if necessary.

Scully 2.0 remained immune through the next couple of rounds, but when they finally did go to Tribal, Andrew, along with Gia, Mani, and Garrett, all became possible targets for the vote. Jamie and Emily, having participated and lost the challenge along with Garrett and Gia, pushed Andrew's name to keep the target off of any of them for having lost the challenge by a single point.

Despite a few people voicing in their confessionals that they’d prefer to see Garrett go for being relatively inactive, all the votes fell on Andrew and he was eliminated 7-1, with Andrew voting for Garrett.
