Young's Survivor Season Opinions
Survivor S7: India
Can I skip this season? Please? No? aw...
India was the first season to start up after the group collapsed due to Raytonlin1 winning Bali, and thus many people didn't want to apply simply due to the fact they expected to lose due to a bitter Jury. For this season, it featured a brand new Jury twist where the finalists would each pick three Jurors from any of the previously eliminated contestants, and the seventh Juror would automatically be whoever took third place. Although this made the Jury vote very predictable, it made people more willing to apply. However, on that note, due to the extremely low interest in the season, I had to cast the first sixteen players who applied... This season originally was supposed to have Redemption Island, but it was scrapped due to people not liking the idea at the time, so Exile Island returned from AS6, though it was mostly only used for free safety or to prevent people from voting out the inactives. There were four people removed for inactivity, which made the season go by relatively quickly, though there were very few people showing up for sessions, as active players were blindsided early. Eventually a premade of MikeTheMagnific and Evanester reached the Final Three, where they planned to take the inactive llConnorll to the end, until he surprisingly won the Final Immunity himself and took out Evan, the likable competition beast. Although I'd like to say the season ended on a deserving winner, in the end neither finalist deserved it. Connor was inactive and only really showed up when he absolutely needed to, and Mike coasted through the game on a premade alliance and just took out players who DID bother showing up, in order to give him and Evan an easy ride to the end, and even had an alternate account in the season to give him a free Jury vote. A huge stain on the group, and should've never happened. Season ranking: 13/13.

Winner: MikeTheMagnific, 4-3After his poor finish in Bali, MikeTheMagnific returned to hopefully finally take home the win. He took advantage of the fact little players were applying and convinced Evanester and ThunderBird667 to apply with him, and together they formed a premade and took over the season. However, they backstabbed Thunder early on when he got too dangerous. Him and Evan together took out active threats, and planned on taking all the inactive players to the end with them for an easy win. They also adopted Tonytonychopper64 into their alliance for guaranteed control, though cut him at fourth in favour of taking llConnorll to the end. While Evan was the competition beast, Mike was more of the control freak, usually deciding the votes. After Connor unexpectedly won the Final Immunity, he took Mike to the end as Evan was undoubtedly the more likely player to win. However, Mike's active gameplay was viewed superior to Connor's inactive performance, so he won 4-3. Unfortunately, it was discovered Mike disgustlingly applied with an alternate account, Happygoluckymike, who was cut for inactiveness earlier on. Mike used the account to give himself his fourth Jury vote and win the season. Played four times and had to cheat to win. Disgusting.

Runner-Up: llConnorll, 3-4llConnorll didn't really have much of a game this season. Despite having several friends in the season with him, they were voted off very early on, leaving him alone for most of the season. After missing several sessions, he became an inactive, compelling MikeTheMagnific and Evanester to drag him to the end for an easy win. He miraculously showed up to the final session, where he joined the two in voting out Tonytonychopper64, and he shockingly won the Final Immunity, and eliminated Evanester right afterwards. Despite having enough eliminated friends to give him three Jury votes, he was unable to convince either Evan to vote him. Didn't deserve to win over MikeTheMagnific, but he did play fairly.
