Host Comments:
At the end of the day, we have selected DaBackpack as the sole survivor. He showed wit, skill, and leadership, all qualities necessary for life at camp.

As for our other contestants, we do have a few comments to say:
Town was a bit too comfortable lynching the "question mark" players like reuben and T-Force and not players that might be sneakier. The mislynch award might go to one of these two if flashflash account didn't already deserve it for his fate this game and his previous games.

Town also had a great start competing in the challenges, but too many people gave up instead of digging deep and earning the reward and immunity challenges. The saboteurs snatched a large majority of the prizes, so town was at a loss.

The saboteurs had a really weird bus relationship with each other, with Soundwave naming the entire saboteur team with only his name replaced. Bold strategy. neeee unfortunately ran out of free time so he got sent home, and Hakulyte racked up the challenges for the team.

The hidden idol took much longer than expected, but there was one design flaw that had the puzzle unsolvable from the start. The same person responsible for that design flaw was also responsible for losing the removal link for the hidden idol host, so more people than the original finder got to see it. We'll have a chat with that producer. I'm not saying it was roundbox, but it was roundbox.

We thank you loyal watchers for tuning in, and hope to see you next season if ratings are high! Who knows, maybe a superfan like yourself might make it on!
