**Player Ranking (5th)**

Biggy is a really close friend of mine irl, and once I got her hooked on Survivor, I knew I had to get her hooked on ORGs as well. She was nervous coming into the game, but then she proved that she had no reason to be! She ran the game from pre-merge to mid-merge, and won a few immunities along the way. Biggy was in almost every alliance of the season, usually being the one to start them. Unfortunately, what cost her the game was a combination of her growing threat level, and a fantastic blindside of JRay done by Alice and Add at Final 7, which really cut off her options to make the end. She was one of the season’s biggest power players, and I’m so happy that she’s stayed in the community as a core member of our hosting team!

**Best Duo**

These two players were inseparable from day one. They quickly took control of the OG Wayne Manor, and then were lucky enough to swap into a power position on Arkham Asylum. When the merge came around, they remained unquestionably loyal to each other. On top of their absolute control of the game, they were also both delightful to watch, and were always positive and entertaining in their confessionals.

#### **Voting History**

**Player Ranking (4th)**

Biggy was AWESOME this season, and she very nearly won Player of the Game because of it. Alongside JRay, she was one of the most consistent forces in the game. This woman was more dedicated than anyone, and it showed. She played hard, and was basically one challenge away from a winning game. Unfortunately for her, a lot of her dedication was focused on eliminating Red, which proved to be a futile goal. She couldn’t see how Izzy was keeping Red safe, and it led to both of them making the Final Five, which almost guaranteed that Izzy or Red was walking away with a win. If Biggy had cut Izzy at final five and saved Red for the final four, I think she wins the whole thing (although Rich may have given her a run for her money). Either way, it doesn’t detract from how strong of a player Biggy proved herself to be. She was one of the main protagonists of the season, and I’m so proud that one of my best friends got to FTC in my All-Star season.

### **Nominations**

**Best Duo (With JRay)**

They were Best Duo in Gotham, and now they’re back in the sequel! They didn’t even share a tribe until merge, but that didn’t break their unbreakable loyalty from carrying over from Gotham. These two reconnected like they had never been separated in the first place, and quickly found themselves with a lot of power. Things didn’t always go their way, and their allies didn’t always stay at their side, but these two never wavered from each other. It’s awesome that they got to the end the game with each other by making it to FTC, side by side.

**Best Move (Alice's Elimination)**

This is easily my favorite Tribal Council of the season, and maybe in all of SurviVARS. So many different factors were at play, and they all had different effects on the tribal. Two prior winners were targeted, which is already a recipe for a wild Tribal. It was right after the auction, so everyone was paranoid about advantages. It was also the round where the Soul Stone was revealed, so many of the heavy hitters were weighing whether or not they could safely vote against their #1. Alice played a Stone Steal, which allowed her to take the Mind Stone from Vic to steal JRay’s vote in an attempt to save herself. Great move! JRay used his extra vote to help balance this out. Great move! BK used the chaos to throw a vote towards Biggy, sacrificing Alice but earning a Soul Stone. Great move! (Although it also kind of ended BK’s game in hindsight). All of this compounded into one of the most chaotic, unpredictable Tribal Councils this ORG has seen.

**Player of the Game**

Biggy didn’t always have control, and she wasn’t always in the loop, but this doesn’t mean she didn’t play a great game. She had strong alliances with people like JRay, Izzy, Victoria, and BK, and these numbers frequently worked out in her favor. She was vocal and steered a lot of moves in the direction she wanted. Her biggest flaw was that she didn’t scheme as much as the others, and most of her allies were more than willing to scheme and leave her out of it. We don’t hold this against Biggy though, because it made her a very rootable and engaging character, and is exactly why we gave her the Hero award. She was the Godmother in many ways, and the main reason a lot of things happened outside of her circle was because people specifically didn’t want her to have as much control as she was set up to have. In some ways, she was an antagonist to the other major players because of how capable she was of controlling votes. The only way people kept Biggy out of power was by navigating under the table and by scheming in spite of her. She wasn’t always successful, but she was one of the biggest forces in the game.

### **Awards**

**Hero**

Biggy came back to this game with a lot of what made her an All-Star the first time. She was social, loyal, and an absolute challenge beast. In All-Star seasons, you usually have to be the most cutthroat person in the room to make it far, and Biggy proved that this isn’t always true. Sure, she made hard calls sometimes, but she always stuck to her gut and was there for her people (even when they didn’t always act in her best interests). In Survivor, that level of loyalty is really rare, and she deserves to be honored for that.

**Best Move (Victoria's Blindside)**

This move was a major turning point in Secret War’s merge game. Victoria had so many advantages that I don’t want to go back to count them, and was going to be able to guarantee herself F5 and potentially comp beast her way to the end like she had done in Hogwarts. She was set up to become unstoppable, and all she had to do was survive F7. Unfortunately for her, Izzy recognized this too. It should have been 4-3 against Red, but Izzy flipped to send Victoria home. Victoria took a major gamble in holding onto her idol, and other players took advantage of that to send a massive threat home. It was the moment Izzy and Red cemented themselves as the players to beat, and set the stage for the rest of the game to come.
