Season 30 Survivor: Worlds Apart

Previous Finish: 8th place

What will you do differently this time around? "The first time I played, I felt like a Survivor tourist. Coconut popcorn! Monkey sex! My enthusiasm for being in the game caused me to lose focus. This time around I would be dialed into the game from the get-go. Having a second chance to play with other returning players would help me take my game to the next level. I perform best when going up against the best."

Analysis of Shirin Oskooi (original Ta Keo Tribe).
 
Following Episode 1 (posted in the wrong place last week): I do not think Shirin learned her lesson of lowering the intensity of her Survivor fandom while speaking to other players. I certainly understand how her mind works -- always looking at the numbers and perceptions of her allies and potential enemies -- but there are kinder, gentler ways of accomplishing those conversions. She stands the greatest chance of anyone (including Abi-Maria) of alienating members of her tribe, who will not appreciate her headstrong attitude at inappropriate times.
 
Following Episode 2: As I suspected, Shirin failed to treat her fellow tribe members as people as much as she simplistically viewed them as competitors and chess pieces toward accomplishing her personal goals. This was best exemplified in her failure to sympathize with Abi-Maria (and was also exemplified by Stephen's misguided perception Jeremy on the other tribe), which ultimately led to the tide quickly turning against her. While Shirin's point of view is commonplace in 21st Century Corporate America, sge should have been smart enough to realize that it is one of the biggest complaints people have about corporate management (i.e. the depersonalization and out-for-oneself attitude). Contrary to the way Abi-Maria and others are visibly trying to change their games, Jeff Probst was correct in pointing out how Shirin made the same mistakes all over again.

Glad that she's gone. She played sympathy card last time and was even worse this time. Bye.

She got on the show by sheer luck. She left the show by sheer lack of skills.

So being bullied by her tribe on Flops Apart is her playing the sympathy card? :res:

And how was she worse, she wasn't even as grating as her earlier self on Flops Apart????

She was portrayed awfully at tribal council. She didnt even fight her for her place instead she went to the "back in my season" story that no one cares about. It's about the there and now and second chance for a reason, probably why Spencer survived over her.

I caught up with Survivor over the weekend and I was actually VERY sad to see her go. Yes, she made (big) mistakes and yes, she dug her own grave, admitted by herself. But she would have brought a lot of fun and strategy to the season.

Idk, maybe I still feel bad for her mistreating on WA, but even though I didn't love Shirin as much this time, I would have liked to see her make the merge.

There's just something about her that sits well with me. She's charming. :luvya:
