Survivor was a huge part of how SRGO got its start, and what kept it going at times. In This thread I will be ranking and reviewing my favorite and least favorite games by Season. I will be including Pontine, even though it did not finish. There is a poll you will be able to vote on(above) to decide the publics favorite season. You didn't have to be in it, just have a healthy knowledge of the seasons to decide your favorite. Please state why you said what you said. My Favorite SRGO Survivor Season #8(Least Favorite):  Some of you may be thinking I chose this one because it didn't finish, that may be part of it. However, This game introduced no new players that made it very far, and had a failed twist that couldn't keep players entertained(My Fault). My issues in life also made the game slow and die which may be a part of it. No players really made that good of diaries and players strategies were predictable and elementary. However, there was some interesting turns alliance wise and drama was building which might've been a good sign. I am guessing that Crazy James, Jason, and Kathleen would have made it far and that one of them would win. Overall though This game just didn't work out. (The next seven will be alot harder to rank) Stay Tuned... |

It's that time again.... My Favorite SRGO Survivor Season #7:  My seventh favorite(or second least favorite) survivor season of the SRGO series was the original first season. This season was good, I am happy with how it went and turned out, but it seems prehistoric now. The games evolved very quickly after the first season and the game play was simple when you compare it to any other season. As the second game on the site(I bet no one can tell me what the very first game was...) it was a major part of keeping the site alive and growing. The cast was majorly active which is unusual for a first season of anything; but the cast did not like to post confessionals. Of all the seasons, this season was one of the worst for confessionals. This season brought Softball, Michael, Iceman, Rigel, Brit541541, and Stuff to SRGO, all of which stayed for a rather long time before eventually retiring(Softball and Michael are still here). While the gameplay was simple it was still interesting, as there were a couple major alliance changes by a few different people. It was predictable but it gave the underdog tribe a road to the finals and Thelousyllama was forever hated by some of his tribe. This tribe was one of the best performers in all stars however, which may be contradicting to what I just said. This season had fewer participants but I believe everyone made the jury. Was I right in choosing this season next? Post here with your thoughts. Stay Tuned... |

It's that time again.... My Favorite SRGO Survivor Season #6:  My sixth favorite season, was is season two: Tuvalu. This season saw a small jump in activity over the first, had alot more power players, and alot more drama. However, the reason I ranked it so low was the fact that it was predictable. Everyone new that Frosti would win and that Stuff would end up making the finals. The only thing that suprised me was that Raymond made it to the finals; No offense to Raymond. This season was alot better confessional wise, but still only a few really went for it. This season was the season for me, as a host, that really wanted to host ORGS for a long time and step up my game as much as possible. This season brought the dramatic TLG/Frosti to SRGO, he ended up playing in 3 seasons and was in the finals for another. It also brought Raymond and Elizabeth, two other important players in SRGO's history. Bottom Line, this season for me was like a 7/10, it had some great enjoyable moments where I was really pulling for someone to do something, but everyone played it safe which made the end more of a 5 or 6/10. Was I right in choosing this season next? Post here with your thoughts. Stay Tuned... |

It's that time again.... My Favorite SRGO Survivor Season #5:  I see this thread is slowly gaining interest  . This is now really, really hard for me but since I have ton continue this, my fifth favorite season of the series is Arabia. Season four was a step down from season three in my opinion, it was slightly more predictable and when things happened they weren't as controversial as they could have been. The game started out merged which caused a haze of votes for all sorts of different people, but made it interesting at the same time. However, this twist caused so many people to be out of the loop and diaries were mostly boring. This was followed by two weeks in tribes and then back to merge, the tribes didn't have much of an effect on the game since Renny came back shortly after. I blame the fact that Renny came back as the reason why this game wasn't as epic as other seasons. As the game went on it got alot more interesting and alliances such as the Renny-Katie-Eliza-Gladys and the Max-Jason-James were formed; the latter being victorious due to floaters Christian, Michael and Wowi. The floaters in this game had probably one of the biggest impacts floater-wise of any season. This was partly due to the fact that the merge counted for 10 weeks of the game and alliances were relatively small for the number of players in the merge. Wowi seemed to float inbetween the girls alliance with some earlier votes and then when they started to lose steam she switched brilliantly to the male alliance relatively unnoticed. Wowi was actually my favorite to win in the finals, and she might have due to Gladys(Who vanished) having a close proximity to the girls who voted for Wowi, we could have had SRGO's first tie. Christian and Michael's votes always seemed to confuse me as to their goal, Christian was seemingly with the male alliance for most of the votes until he tried to over throw it in the final seven. I never did figure out Michaels strategy for this season. Another great thing about this season was also one that made it not as good overall was the elimination of Jason at the final 4. Jason obviously deserved to duke it out in the final 3 and was a favorite to win by the jury. James and Wowi ended up backstabbing him by not voting for Max, the member of their foursome who was not at the live challenge. An even crazier thing was the fact that Jason was the only one to vote for him in the finals. Yes, I know this post was full of me rambling.Was I right in choosing this season next? Post here with your thoughts. Stay Tuned... |

I'm quite sad that Arabia only made #6. I think the elimination of Jason at F4 would end up making it better - considering how unexpected it was. I did indeed get Jason's vote in the final because Jason understood the whole 'had to do what I to do' and forgave me for it. Jason is... awesome.  |

(I made a mistake, Arabia was #5, I hit the wrong number, does that make you feel better James lol. It's that time again.... My Favorite SRGO Survivor Season #4:  (What The hell was I thinking with some of these graphics)That's right, the last of the pre-all stars games. This was by far my favorite season of the first four for four main reasons: The tribal tension, The merge alliance shifts, The Unpredictability of the players and the spy twist. We also saw introduction of arguably the best players, Renny, Crazy James, Christian, and Max. Oh ya, and one of the best jurors lounges too. The game started out as Cauto and Almendares, both tribes had a commeradery that caused severe tension between tribes after immunity challenges. This lead to interesting diaries, always a plus for me. The tribes were so equal too, I never knew which tribe would win. Then when tribes were shuffled, everything changed and tribal tensions dissolved. At merge, Old Cauto members seemed so confused and scattered. Meanwhile, old almendares members were backstabbing each other and getting cauto votes to try and get a advantage. Which was kind've stupid as Cauto would then have an advatage that ended up taking them to the end. It was a battle between James and Max that Max barely avoided due to his extra vote. The Next week, old tribal lines seemed to come back a little as old cauto members formed an alliance of PG - Renny - Shadowz - and later Kathleen who was kind've a free spirit. Eliza and Brit541541 tagged along from Almendares which ended up leading to their demise. As the game went on Almendares went and went until finally only the alliance was left. Almednares had pagonged themselves. At the final five things got really interesting and Kathleen and Max teamed up against Renny and Shadowz, PG wanted a tie. There would have been a tie if it wasn't for the last extra vote which sent Max packing and left a very strong final four. At this point Kathleen, played a solid game and I was hoping for her to win but she got sick and got last in a deciding challenge. Renny got first and decided to take PG for the fact of getting shadowz's vote and wanting a challenge(like in Siberia). Peih Gee won 6-3. Funny, Everyone knew Eliza was a spy but never said anything until after they got to the jury. Almost no one ever suspected Renny until it was revealed at the end which cost her the game. The Spy twist had a fun effect on the game that kept everyone on the toes and to me, this season while having its errors was very successful. I lost my train of thought over and over again in this post lol. Voting chart to explain:  (Once Again, What the hell, there are mistakes I think)Quote of the game(Late Merge): From Max: "Guess what? Renny's under the radar" Analyze this how you want. I rambled again, I know these posts are boring and you just want to see number one Was I right in choosing this season next?

Does EP 8 stand for episode 8? because that does not really make sense.
