survivor philippines: why gigit lost

cesar "gigit" sulit is definitely a good fit to be a cast away. he is a logical thinker. he is fit despite his age. he is very likeable and has not had any fights with the tribemates so far. he is a mountain climber, he is an outdoor person. so why did he lose the game?

first, he did not made a move to make alliances, he waited for the alliance to come to him. he is a very strategic player, we have seen that. he is planning to vote for patani but did not approach anyone about it. yes, he was in an alliance but he was the last person in to that alliance. jace, john, vern and marlon are already in the alliance when they offered it to him. he would definitely be the easiest one to sacrifice, if the need arises.

second, when he went into the alliances, the first thing he did was to contradict john's view that nina should be the first one to go. being the last person in the alliance, he should have thought that i should listen to them first because they are already in the alliance before i got in. he did not negotiate for them to vote for patani. he dictated them. he said that if its nina, he would not go with them. this might have pissed off john or jace.

third, he was very analytical and he showed it to them. he has plans which is definitely not aligned with the other's plans and he is very persistent with what he thinks. other tribemates might thought that he will definitely become a threat.

fourth, he became too comfortable with his alliance with the guys and vern that he did not mind the girls alliance. he did not bother to know which one of them is the girls' target. if he had known that he is the target, he might have negotiated it with nina, since he already saved her ass in the boys alliance.

and lastly, he did not adjust to the situation well. before tribal council, he already kn ew that patani and nina are the odd girls in the tribe that could be voted out and he is the odd man in their alliance. with this, he could have talked with nina for a possible secret alliance and watch each other's back. that was complacency, and you should never relax in this game called survivor.

gigit definitely did his best. he strategized and came prepared. but it felt short. i would like to see him in all stars and do better in that season, if all stars is already in the plans of gma 7.
