Flava

## *Skatevivor* Career

**Flava** is a contestant on *Skatevivor: Beach City*, the second season of *Skatevivor*. He was voted out from the doomed Amethyst tribe in 17th place due to general inactivity, and is best remembered for showing up to the Marooning vote only fifteen minutes before votes were due.

## Profile

**Name:** Flava

**Age:** 28

**Pronouns:** he/him

**Timezone:** CT

**Starting tribe:** Amethyst

**Which survivor contestant would you say you are most like? Why?** I am most like Laura B. Ruperts wife because she got voted out first, someone else rescued her, and then got voted out again by her own mistake. Hahahaha.

**What is your experience with ORGs (Online Reality Games)?**  I’ve played some ORGS never won a long term.

**What is your strategy coming into this game?** My strategy is to be inactive and under the radar.

**Would you rather get to the end and be hated or get voted out early and be loved?** I’d rather be voted out early and be hated.

**Is there anything else you want the specs to know?** I want the specs to know that if you leak any information to any contestant I will backtrack your IP address and play your house as a hidden immunity idol. It obviously isn’t a hidden immunity idol; therefore, the hosts will throw your house in the fire. Don’t cheat your house will get burnt.

## Survivor

In his pre-game confessionals, Flava indicated that being inactive would be part of his strategy. During the extended Marooning twist, he was nowhere to be found and eventually became the obvious target to be "voted out" of the game.

Flava shocked Hosts, specs, and players alike when he suddenly logged on just 15 minutes before votes were due, explaining in his confessional that he had forgotten when the game was starting. He publicly announced that he was going to abstain from the vote, but voted AP, since he was the first cast member on the list alphabetically. Flava was unsurprisingly "voted out" in a 17-1-1 vote, and was Exiled to the Lunar Sea Spire for the first cycle.

Flava joined the Amethyst Tribe after Mason was voted out. Although there were no idols or advantages hidden at the Lunar Sea Spire, there was a (completely useless) command in the channel description, !crystalshrimp. As Flava was being removed from the Lunar Sea Spire, Dio, thinking he was already gone, did the command in the channel. Flava saw the command and quickly told his new tribemates about it, which made some of them worry that the picture of the shrimp was some kind of idol or advantage. He told them that the Hosts "felt bad" for him and showed him the command, which just made his tribemates even more suspicious that he was hiding something.

Flava's sporadic activity made it difficult for him to work his way into his new tribe, especially since there was a majority alliance, Early Birds, that formed before he even arrived. After Amethyst lost their second challenge in a row, Nate and Kham pushed for Pebbles to go in the hopes that Flava would still be scared enough to play anything he found on the Lunar Sea Spire. Isabella and Jamal wanted to keep Pebbles over Flava, but ultimately agreed to vote her out as planned. Flava, feeling powerless on his tribe, went along with voting out Pebbles.

When his tribe lost yet another immunity challenge, Flava was swiftly targeted as the last outsider to the Early Birds alliance. Flava voted Kham and believed that he was in full control of the vote, only to be voted out unanimously by the Early Birds alliance in 17th place.

Although he was one of the first players voted out, the legend of Flava lived on well after his exit when Kham, Nate, and Isabella spread the lie that Flava idoled Pebbles out. Flava's belated arrival to the Marooning just 15 minutes before votes were due was also voted as the funniest moment of the season by specs at the reunion.
