Honestly I love the traitors so I was so happy when I was the last one admitted... I was ready to catch a traitor or two.
Well I didnt need to put much effort to catch the traitors bc I knew them all...! Since I was one. Ive played so many traitor orgs and never have I been a traitor; I always ask to be a faithful because that's where I have more fun. So to be given a murderous role for once was exhilarating but also nerve wracking asf. Not to mention I was afk for most of the season because of finals. I'm secretly happy that I was a traitor, though. Because I'm confident i would have been murdered early as a faithful like Batya was.
The traitors turret was kinda empty but was filled w camp people. There was me, the most self interested traitor, aries, the supporting traitor (who didn't do much supporting), venharim, the smartest traitor who unfortunately got clocked too early for us to win, and Sprite, the main character traitor and final girl who had the best arc out of us all. We were kinda dysfunctional and honestly we shouldve lost so early but we got lucky with the fuckery that was going on in that mansion honey...
Sprite and I immediately got jumped by muribolt and Hare for meta reasons and some haphazard logic of activity but if I'm being honest their reasoning had to do with their expectations of how we'd play... and we were underperforming in their eyes. And this started the seasonlong battle of me having to defend myself against shaky game logic (aka gut/intuition). I had the aura of a traitor and I had to fight that aura every business day, work overtime, check into the office on weekends, all while I had exams. I thank Poof for throwing the mansion way off base and CalamityKnight for being a legend. You deserved sm better.
Along the way, I did in fact throw my fellow traitors under the bus. When I caught heat initially, I pointed out aries' sabotage and it bought me time. I consistently dropped seeds about Sprite's behavior as a "faithful." And the nail on the coffin was me voting in Sprite and Ven instead of muribolt. Now, I was going to switch my vote from Sprite to muri once the votes were there but I forgot... but the fact still lies that I was willing to sacrifice a traitor if it made me look better. Spoiler alert; it didn't. Sprite fought hard while I was hard at work irl, and she ended up being the final girl.
I do think the traitors couldve won if Ven and I had listened to our guts and killed desh when we suspected he was bluffing abt his second shield, but we played it too safe. Also if Ven and I had thrown lucky drop LMAOOO. The lengths we go to look innocent only for it to blow up in our faces. I am proud(ish) of the traitor performances for how early some of us got jumped, and it was a decent season overall from a production standpoint. Just wasnt the most fun to play for me.
Best faithful goes to muribolt for sure, with Batya desh SurferSorbet coming close behind. Poof was definitely the best big brother player...! And while i don't think Envious did anything noteworthy enough in the season to justify his win, I'll congratulate him nonetheless. I think if this started off as a public voting type of traitors, it wouldve gotten a bit more engagement, but it is what it is. Hugs my fellow traitors. Good luck celebs 9 cast, I'll be rooting for yall 🩷
