I had way too much to keep track of without the egg in my pocket too - but I did appreciate how it forced some people to work together which was prob you goal! Massive improvement between your first game and now!

Masahiro Sakurai On the topic of eggs, I feel like I gave the players enough to keep track of without you adding even more on top of it. I do feel like it threw things off a bit at times, but there's plenty to celebrate here, and I'll accentuate the positive here. For someone who hasn't played that many ORGs, you've really settled in as a challenge monster to be feared, and you claimed some major scalps here. Part of it was from circumstance and friendly Sandbag holders, but it is a massive achievement all the same. Props for really engaging with the challenges and picking out the concepts you knew you'd excel at. More than anyone else, you made the most of the way challenges worked here. Making it to the end for the first time is a big achievement, and you have a natural charm that endears you to people. I think there's a valuable lesson in that; while it's fun to experiment with the gimmicky stuff, you never know when you'll have the opportunity to snare a win. If you'd given yourself the chance, maybe you'd have managed it here? Sandbag Oh Yoshi... I don't know what to say here. I (and the other hosts) were pretty disappointed by the egg "strategy". It definitely felt like a very artificial and intrusive set of rules to impose on your game, and while I'm sure that you are happy to see its success in making the final 3 it really is sort of just... expected at a point. You immediately gave up any chance at victory the second you gave away your means of decision making, and after 5 attempts to eliminate you it just wasn't worth the effort anymore and people were forced to include it. Personally, I don't think it was a particularly fair or fun thing to put the other players through either, as interesting as it could've seemed. But on the bright side, I thought your general performance as Yoshi was great. Cute and charming, and your pm's reveal a solid player with good social game that does exist, and I would've much preferred getting to see that person in action making their own decisions. I'm sorry I can't be more positive because I think you're a really awesome guy but this just didn't do anything for me.
The eggs were a bad gimmick, but I feel like they probably weren't intended to last all game as you make FTC lol The sad part was I think without the eggs you probably have a good shot in this game? Because people LIKED Yoshi, Yoshi was fun! And even on red the eggs were the reason you were booted, it just felt like the gimmick only ever hurt you in the long run. Despite the shtick you did have a nice social game when you were able to just talk beyond that, and your challenges skills were unmatched here. Dark Pit and Pythra are two of the better challenge players and you defeated them easily in your third game, there is a lot of power to that and you should be happy with that performance When you didn’t know the survivor answer in 20 levels i knew it was you Sammy. 😉

Yoshi likes to see that half of the people liked seeing something new and half hated it :joy:
Yoshi isn't going to want to do that again though. It was interesting but Yoshi didn't really expect to have an entire game to deal with that with and betraying the eggs just felt wrong at that point. As much as people begged Yoshi to.

Well, it was a killer game for a second game. And explains a lot. I pretty much said this word for word in my confesh, but I appreciated the Wario experience from afar, just... not so much from up close, lmfao.

Sammy & Big V, I enjoyed you both tons.
Big V - ignore the host comments - keep being rude AF it was refreshing. Sammy pay attention to host comments - lose the eggs and play a regular style game!

Great work Scott Being 6th on debut was impressive as is, so many people take a couple of games even to get that far, so to improve to 2nd just one ORG later in this veteran heavy setting? Yes your style were rough around the edges but that is entirely expected and there's so many positives to take away from this performance. It'll be scary to see you in any cast list as another player once you can refine a dimension or two. This game wouldn't have progressed the way it did without your priorities and aims. Keen to see how you evolve from here

Yoshi was Lord Yupa? I feel like I should have guessed that. At least there's some mild relief I wasn't playing because I would have gunned for you the whole game on grounds of that egg gimmick

When Robin told me Wario had asked her to just stop PMing here I cackled for a solid five minutes. Highlight of the game.

Hahaha it makes so much sense now that it was Daini I was talking to! Seeing you from afar as a host and now playing with you was such an interesting experience. Good job making it to the end and well done on getting my vote!
