(+/-) Tyson Apostol ~ Tocantins, HvV, BvW

12thSep 27, 2016 by BlueBarracuda

Tyson was a castaway who originally appeared on Survivor: Tocantins as Coach’s weirdo sidekick. This earned him a spot on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains as a villain, where he made a stupid move which resulted in his own ouster. He appeared a third and final time in Survivor: Blood vs. Water with his girlfriend Rachel. Despite her early boot, he managed to play a more strategic game and was named the Sole Survivor by the jury. Tyson was originally considered for Survivor: Caramoan but was cut due to the change in the season theme, but returned the season after (BvW) instead.

 TOCANTINS – Timbira tribe | Forza merged tribe
• Placement: 8th out of 16 | Challenge Wins: 8 | Votes Against: 5 | Days Lasted: 27
• He quickly aligned with Coach Wade and was his “assistant coach” and also Debbie
• He voted with the majority in the early days, and he and Coach tried to blindside Erinn, but failed
• He remained immune due to Timbira’s winning streak and easily made the merge; upon the merge he won the first two individual immunities
• Several days into the merge, he and Coach made a Warrior Alliance, along with J.T., Stephen, and Debbie and together they blindsided Brendan
• Stephen and J.T. went back on their alliance and joined Sierra, Taj, and Erinn in blindsiding Tyson, because he was an immunity threat.
• As the second jury member, he voted for JT to win
but returned the season after (BvW) instead.

o HEROES VS. VILLAINS – Villains tribe
• Placement: 15th out of 20 | Challenge Wins: 7 | Votes Against: 3 | Days Lasted: 15
• He quickly joined Boston Rob’s alliance, along with his buddy Coach, Courtney, Sandra, and Jerri, allowing him to be in the majority
• At their second tribal council appearance, Rob’s alliance decided to split the votes between Russell and Parvati, because Russell had an Idol
• At the last minute, Tyson changed the plan and voted for Parvati instead of Russell like he was supposed to – Parvati played Russell’s Idol and negated the votes against her, making the votes 3 votes Tyson, 2 votes Russell, sending Tyson home 15th
• Had he stuck to the original plan and voted for Russell, the votes would’ve tied 3-3-3 and Russell would’ve gone home at the revote
• He was the second villain to leave the game – his move being called one of the dumbest moves in Survivor history – his demise effectively led to the end of Rob’s alliance

 BLOOD VS. WATER – Galang Tribe | Tadhana Tribe | Kasma merged tribe
• Placement: Sole Survivor | Challenge Wins: 8 | Votes Against: 2 | Days Lasted: 39
• He appeared with his loved one/girlfriend Rachel Foulger (they are now married and expecting a child – Stephen Fischbach officiated their wedding)
• Like his past seasons, he started off the game in the majority alliance, aligning himself with Tina, Gervase, Monica, and Aras, although his loved one was in the minority
• In an attempt to weaken Tyson and the Galang tribe, the other tribe voted off Rachel hoping Tyson would switch spots with him – which he did not after Rachel’s urging; she ended up losing her Redemption Island Duel
• He joined the majority in voting off Laura M., hoping she’d defeat Brad Culpepper, to ensure Monica’s loyalty to him—his plan worked
• He and Gervase formed a tight bond, calling themselves the Coconut Bandits, because of a spot where they secretly ate coconuts
• During a tribe swap, he moved to the Tadhana tribe with Gervase and Aras, and he did his best to get the others to view Aras as the leader of the returnees, in an attempt to dethrone him as leader and get him voted out
• He made the merge and also found the immunity idol and recruited people into blindsiding Aras, betraying Vytas and Tina in the process
• He orchestrated the elimination of the last surviving couples, and when Caleb, Hayden, and Katie plotted to vote him out, Ciera told him, solidifying a final 4 alliance with her, Monica, and Gervase – he also wasted his Idol by playing it unnecessarily
• Hayden called Tyson out, telling the others they wouldn’t be able to beat him in a final 3 and Tyson luckily found a Hidden Immunity Idol- Ciera turned on him and forced a tie where they had to draw rocks
• Tyson’s alliance with Monica and Gervase remained strong and they voted out successfully the rest of the remaining players; he subsequently won the last several Individual immunities, securing his spot in the finals and used his Idol on Gervase on Day 37, which upset Monica
• At the Final Tribal Council, he beat Monica and Gervase, convincing the Jury he was in control the majority of the game and played without malice, winning the votes of all but Vytas
• He is one of 6 returnees to win the game after their original season

If you like the castaway, plus (+), if you don't, neg (-). Use your own criteria. Make sure you vote in all the polls on the blogs to the left. Let me know if you want to be tagged (or untagged).
