Alumni SN: Dropsofbright

[Hosty Bo]

You're one of a handful being interviewed, but if asked to return as a Villain for SurVs 8: Heroes vs Villains...would you accept the offer? (as ...)
I most certainly would.

What would you say made you stick out the most in your original season? In Fans vs Favorites (if you were in it-if not, ignore the FvF part)?
Hm... I'd say it was the fact that I was a Grade-A, manipulative, crazy-b*tch. xD I pulled together the strongest alliance of the game, consisting of almost my entire original tribe... And then picked them off after getting as far as possible together, and did so without any of them coming after me, or questioning my loyalty to them until it was too late.

Why do you think you're being considered for SurVs 8 as a villain and not a hero?
Like I said in the last answer, I was manipulative, cutt-throat, and a biiiit of a b*tch. That's not exactly heroic material!

What mistake (if any) do you think you made last time?
Well, I think, if anything, I had two main faults in my gameplay. One was that, although I had the numbers to do whatever the heck I wanted, and maintained them well, I didn't get to know the people I DIDN'T need too well-- that could have hurt me if the unexpected happened, or if I'd gone with someone who had really tight those lasting connections, to the end. Second, well... Just not taking peoples' feelings more into account. I guess as a villain this wouldn't matter too much, but people were obviously hurt by me, by the end of the game. And lord knows, if anyone remembers me well entering Heroes Vs Villains... It's probably not gonna be in a positive way.

Would you play any different this time around and if so, how?
If I could get away with it? Hell no, I'd do the same thing all over again. But seeing as people know what I'm capable of?... Probably not so much. Don't get me wrong; I'd try to work the social angles as much, if not more so, to keep myself alive. Put people are gonna expect me to be putting myself first, and probably expect me to have side deals-- so I think I might try and lay low on the alliance spectrum, unless my hand is forced.

Who from any season would you like to see return and why?
I'd like to see any of the other winners that would qualify come back-- not to sound elitist, but I wanna see the best-of-the-best in action, if possible. Other than that, in general, just anyone who works hard, plays hard, and isn't gonna skip out on the game.

Who from any season would you NOT like to see return and why?
Well first off, any quitters(even if they were eligable) and floaters need not apply-- they just bring down the quality of the game, and I can't argue much merit to either group. Aside from that, I'd rather not see Betsy from my own season, Palau Vs Samoa, because well... She's the only person to hate me from the season that I feel DOESN'T have the justification to do so.

If not chosen, how would you react?
I'd be pretty upset, for sure. I would understand, out of all the other possible players, but I do feel like I really lived up to the villain name. That said, I think I can do well, so long as my past doesn't come back to haunt me!

You're one of a handful being interviewed, but if asked to return as a Hero for SurVs 8: Heroes vs Villains...would you accept the offer? (as ...)
Yeah, sure!

What would you say made you stick out the most in your original season? In Fans vs Favorites (if you were in it-if not, ignore the FvF part)?
Well, I think it's the fact that I got to the top 4, despite being the only member of my original tribe to make it to a full-on merge-- Leslie made it to the merge stage too, but got knocked out before everyone really came together, because of the 'team challenge'. As a result I kinda had to fight it out just to stay alive! All things considered I did well, and even got an alliance together for a 3-vs-3 final 6, but... It wasn't meant to be, I guess.

Why do you think you're being considered for SurVs 8 as a hero and not a villain?
I think it's because in my season, I really embodied the underdog! I was targeted more than I'd like to admit... but I was scrappy as hell, and refused to just roll over and die when the cards didn't fall in my favor.

What mistake (if any) do you think you made last time?
The mistake I made... Well, two of 'em stand out, to be honest. First of all, voting out Leslie at the 'team challenge', because Jon convinced me she was after me, and I that had to do it to stay. The second was wasting my idol! Gah... It was the last one in the game, and I used it for guaranteed safety... Despite being able to survive, by one vote, without it!

Would you play any different this time around and if so, how?
This time around, well... Hopefully I make it to merge with more than just myself. xD Heheh, but really, I don't think I'd change too much about my basic gameplay, at least in the parts I could control. All I can say for sure, though, is that if I got to merge, I'd try to keep in EVERYONE'S good graces-- even if I had to lie a bit, I don't want people to think they'd get a better deal by flipping to someone else's side. Playing with Chicken REALLY taught me to beward of the flipper!

Who from any season would you like to see return and why?
Um... From the third season, Palau-Vs-Samoa, I feel like Natalie would make a good hero. Although she was kind of checked out of the game towards the end, she was loyal to who she said she would be loyal to, and faithful in her tribe and her core allies, almost to a fault. From the same season, I could see Gregg as a villain. Even though he was kind of in the same 'underdog' boat as me, he played it more sneakily-- he even tried to rob Willard of his idol, and was waaaay vicious in his exit speeches, despite being pretty underhanded to the same people he was calling two-faced.

Who from any season would you NOT like to see return and why?
From my own season, China-vs-Pearl Islands, I'd like not to see Aaron again-- he had a real sense of entitlement about him, despite usually being one of the first to drop from a challenge, if he could. I don't like his work ethic much, nor the fact that he didn't seem to like ME much either, by the time he'd left.

If not chosen, how would you react?
If NOT chosen, well, I guess I WOULD be disappointed-- I know you guys do have to make cuts, since you have 7 seasons to chose from, so I would understand... But like I said, I really do want that second chance!
