Well, before the season begins, thought I would give you a small teaser about each of the players from their apps!

Mariche

Gabriel - I'd probably be portrayed as the token gay, and would probably in actuality be a bit clueless in their spot in the game. I could see myself being edited as a social but stupid player.

Patricia - I want my allies to like me around for my contribution, I want my enemies to want me gone (and most certainly let people know about it) and I want anyone left to feel like they can talk to me about a plan.

Vecepia - I am a risk taker and am not afraid to make big moves. I am well liked and am good at not drawing attention to myself.

Sarah - I have that habit of making myself the villain as the result of one small moment and it really tears my game down.

Gina - People put all of their trust in me, and I vote them out to further my own position. Rinse, and repeat. it wouldn't be my fault that nobody learned not to trust me.

Peter - My favorite player is Rupert because of his loving teddy bear/ huge monster appeal

General - an important thing. I'm from Quebec and my first language is French. This is why my english is sometimes average

John - I'm here to entertain myself and the viewer as much as possible. I have no trouble cheating and lying to others in order to get ahead (infact I relish it).

Sean - From games that I've played I've had polarizing effects. Either I am a very disliked player who gains that reputation or I am a very popular player that is seen as a threat in the social game.

Tamanaco

Big Tom - I want to play survivor, and love the rush of being the last man standing and watching others fall while i rise up! MWHAHAHAHAH

Lindsey - One of my main issues both in games and in life has been not thinking before I speak. I've been trying to change that, because I hate how buckwild I can get in conflict situations.

Kim P - Growing up gay in rural Michigan I had to deal with a lot of ignorant bible humpers who told me I would go to Hell for being me.

Frank - I don't lose at games.

Kim J - I like to think I'm funny, but I'm also very critical of myself. I will second and third guess myself constantly.

Linda - I'd like my relationships with other players being more important than just "SO I need to get rid of fan favorite John because he's too much of a threat". How boring.

Diane - I recently finished up my Master's degree in Theology with plans to move on to my Doctorate soon. I think this is evidence of my intelligence and determination to get things done, as well as a testament to my honesty and integrity

Lex - I have been supporting myself by playing poker. I've played ~2000 hours have made ~$47000 by risking no more than $400 at a time.

Clarence - My favorite pizza is the Pizza Hut Pan Supreme. You should try it. :3

This looks like a damn good cast! <3

Is anyone else super excited about Kim P and Diane being on the same tribe? I don't think they'll be explosive, but it will be an interesting dynamic. Wouldn't it be ironic if they became best friends.

After reading these I kinda wish I picked Patricia instead. The fact she specifically wants her enemies to tell others they want her gone <3

Chase. <333

Peter - My favorite player is Rupert because of his loving teddy bear/ huge monster appeal

First boot please. Thanks.

There's no lack of huge personalities, we just have to wait nad see who actually puts up and who shuts up.

by **Lurker_Corinne** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 7:32:37 pm

Big fan of what Sean, Gina, and Patricia had to say.

by **Jeff Probst** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 7:43:29 pm

I have noticed that for the most part Mariche has spoken of their strategy and cut throatness and Tamanaco has spoken of their personalities. I think we're in for two very different tribes here.

I hope she does well. I always love being targeted as well, so we are complete kindred spirits icon_wub

Loving the tribe names! I'm calling them "Mariachi" and "Tamanacho" icon_mml

True, plus we need at least one hag and/or middle-aged female tyrant this season to live up to the greatness that was Teresa. CMON Linda/Gina/Patricia/Diane at least one of you has to deliver.

If only we hadn't voted Jane out so soon last season. Oh what could have been icon_sad

Fun fact: Jane and Erica were supposed to return this season but Jane could not commit to the timing and we received far more applications than we needed.

And Erica......

Could this be another teaser?

by **Jeff Probst** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 9:26:53 pm

No... we just scrapped the whole thing since we got so manny great apps and just decided to do 18 new players. Another Fun Fact: Lindsey and Gabriel are the only two characters in STranded history to be reused. :o

by **Lurker Cwisty** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 9:32:22 pm

Were they inactive early boots? :O

by **Jeff Probst** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 9:33:58 pm

Lindsey was, Gabriel was just kind of there, nice kid but I don't think I'd ever bring him back. Plus I'm pretty sure he has a form of down-syndrome.

fanning at Frank <3

Go Africa tribe!

by **Lurker_Ibrehem** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 10:34:53 pm

Africa tribe ftw :D

btw Vecepia's avatar isn't showing up for me under her profile, that's kind of weird. Just wanted to point that out.
