Favs

Lonin Kora

The ***12th*** season of **Skolvivor** premiered on *April 16, 2022* where ten new Castaways entered the game, as well as 10 returnees. The season lasted approximately 41 days. At the finale, taking place on *May 27, 2022*, Kremit won in a **5-4** vote against Nina making him the Winner of **Season 12: Marshall Islands "Fans vs Favs"**.

## Twists

- The Fire Task was first introduced in season 3. This task enforced activity to complete your fire tending task. Each episode the tribes would be given a # to tend to (I tend to the fire "#"). If This task was not complete by the end of the episode the tribe that failed this task would receive a **Challenge disadvantage** for the next Challenge.

- **Fans vs Favs** : To give the Favs an advantage towards their experience, their fire task was always half of what the Fans fire task was. This twist ended when tribes swapped.

## Castaway Analyses

### Winner: Josh

"Truly an all around great person with a big heart. Josh was kinda all over the place this game haha. Being so vocal and not afraid to say what came to their mind you would think that a player like this wouldn't get to the end, just like me: YOU THOUGHT WRONG!!!Josh had an impressive social game that led to most of the jury liking him and with a great FTC performance it led a couple swing votes to vote for him to win. A job well done and welcome to the Elite Circle!!! "

### Runner-up: Ben

"It's not often in a final 2 you have 2 players that deserved their spot and to claim **Sole Survivor**. Ben played a great UTR game (maybe too great). Early on Ben found himself in potential danger on the Vero tribe, but with a good social game and the ability the link up with Mango and become the **Duo of the Season** that quickly diminished. Ben was always on the right side and managed to evade a single vote going their way up until the Final 4. Bens biggest mistake was underestimating our eventual winner and their connections to the Jury. This was such a close ftc and it did pain me to see you lose, cause I knew you gave it all. Definitely would love to have you back Ggs!"

### 3rd: Tommy

"Its weird... every aussie i've watched and played with is damn near amazing (must be something in those wheaties). Tommy used his strong bonds to thrive on the Auahi tribe. So bonds and Tommy's ability to adapt helped them get into the finale. If its a finale 3 I don't think you could win luckily enough it was a final 2. However a simple little mistake costed you. So close to the end and with how great of a player you are I would not be surprised if you were able to win with your FTC performance. Was great watching you! "

### 4th: Mango

"I've been waiting for you to play this game. I know your a great player and when you applied last second words cannot say how excited I was. Mango started out on the Vero tribe very well. Building up strong bonds early on and managing to find the Vero Idol early on helped tremendously. Once merge came Mango did a good job hiding her challenge ability. Mango was so close to winning this entire thing, but the way people realized how dangerous of a player she was at the final 4 was the seal. A great game all around and truly thank you for playing!"

### 5th: Nick

"It's not to often you have a player eliminated by default. A player right off the bat who I could tell was really really smart right away. Nick did a good job finding bonds with the right players and having their name be an actual target. In fact Josh never had their name written down. Although, Nick was busy and we just didn't get to see much of it confessional wise with a lot more time Nick could be a really great player."

### 6th: Tvu

"Very early on it looked like Tvu wasn't going be active and an easy boot. The fact that Tvu quickly adapted to build the bonds he had to goes to show how good of a player Tvu is. Tvu was always calculated and brought a fresh perspective towards this game. Strategic wise Tvu brought everything to the table to win this game, simply they just couldn't win immunity and with how sneaky they were perceived it costed tvu"

### 7th: Danny

"Danny, one of the more villionist characters as of the season. Danny's social game brought him into a more so leader role early on. Danny used that to his advantage as a way of people wanting to use him as a shield. During multiple tribals Danny brought a variety amount of entertainment making multiple live and open tribal councils happen. Eventually the top dog leader role was too much and at F7 the majority was scared to have him in this game any further."

### 8th: Cyan

"Cyan played a game that for me was easily rootable for. From early on being on the struggling Ava'e tribe, to the early on struggles at the merge. Cyan was able to adapt enough to get him into the final 9. After losing a key ally in Nikki Cyan didn't have anyone left and it ended up costing him, making Cyan an easy vote. The confessionals were great thanks for playing!"

### 9th: Nikki

"A really REALLY strategic and manipulative player this season. Nikki early on showed how strong the game she was bringing being able to to the key player on the auahi tribe early on. After a rumored pre-game relationship Nikki slowly lost power as we got deeper into the merge. What was supposed to be a really exciting vote, Nikki waved the white flag and was ready for their journey to end. These games take a toll while playing, it does suck you went out the way you did but without a doubt still a great player!"

### 10th: Day

"All around a chaotic and sassy player (which I love). With all the chaos Day did a good job maintaining relationships until their demise at the **final 10**. Up until the final 10 Day did not receive votes. With a vote that had a lot of potential to be exciting Day was perceived as playing the middle. After both sides exchanged notes the vote quickly changed to Day. It was a blast to have you Day and thank you for playing!"

### 11th: Kokichi

"Known for their hilarious parchments Kokichi did well early on, being apart of the trio in Ava'e tribe. That quickly came when merge hit. A rumor started that Kokichi had pregame relations with Nikki and with Ava'e kinda being on the bottom for this vote. Kokichi became a name everyone was content with. Really wish we got to see more of your parchments haha, thanks for playing!"

### 12th: Sean

"Sean started this game out very very fast. He tried to set himself up in the middle, people caught on and eventually started to distrust him. Sean kinda disappeared and it just kinda became an easy excuse once there was two groups. However the way Sean started this game he really didn't have enough shelf life left to make a deep run. Thanks for playing and hope all is well!"

### 13th: Tyson

"Tyson did just enough to survive two votes, but with 4 people left and a trio already made. There was really nothing tyson could do. Ava'e really had a tough time early on and even if tyson has a strong alliance early on in a season like this its hard to see a win from a player like tyson."

### 14th: Nugget

"Our first player on our most competitive tribe on the season. Nugget got labeled the "least active" and people rolled with it. Its insanely difficult to survive in a group of 6 with a group like this, Nugget just got the short end of the stick"

### 15th: Edwin

"After the Baile Blindside, it left Edwin stunned. Edwin tried to pin Josh and Nikki as a dangerous duo but people ignored him. At the end of the day Edwin was wrong lol. Thanks for playing!"

### 16th: Diego

"Our Shmoe of the season! Diego kinda similar to MGB just did not have the connections and putting up a zero in the challenge was basically the nail in the coffin. I do feel that if Diego put their full effort into this game they coulda have thrived on this tribe."

### 17th: Baile

"The biggest blindsides of the **Pre-merge**. From the outside it looked like Auahi was going to have a fairly easy tribal with Tvu not being very active early on, but Nikki, Tommy and Josh saw this as a perfect time to pick up an ally in Tvu to maintain control of the tribe. Really wish we got to see more of Baile. which is why they defiantly deserved the **most robbed pre-jurror** award. Thanks for playing!"

### 18th: MGB

"Was labeled as the least active, and for a first vote off that tends to send a player packing. MGB could have made it a lot further , they just didnt sink their claws into the key players on the tribe"
