In a rare turn of events, Alison Raybould was the one to say hello to the Survivor subreddit as she answered a ton of questions from mostly adoring fans.
It’s always fun to see when certainSurvivorcharacters pop up as fan favorites. More interesting is to see who are fan favorites in which communities at what point in the season, as it took until just before the merge before theSurvivorsubreddit’s obsession with Alison Raybould would take form. Most notably, people still offer a simple wave and a “Hi, Alison” on social media long afterDavid vs. Goliathhas ended.
As is a tradition in the offseason, Alison Raybould was approached toprovide a community AMA segmentwhere subreddit fans of hers asked her about her game. One of the more touching anecdotes is abouthow close she was to Alecand how they spoke a coded language so they can maintain their relationship without giving away their day one ride-or-die status.
Among the questions asked by the fandom, some answers were fairly indicative of the fan at heart. For example, though she liked the moment the Idol Nullifier was played, Alison wasnot a fan of piling more advantages onto fix advantagegedon. She also echoed Gabby Pascuzzi’s incorrect take ofhating pineapple on pizzas(a perfectly okay topping in Hawaiian pizza). Alison also gave one of the better, complex answerson if she would return.
When approached about the most misleading edit, Alison gave a long and thoughtful answer aboutthe role of theSurvivor: David vs. Goliathedit had on the players, remarking that besides Angelina, most women had one-dimensional archetype edits. She argued that not fitting into a particular box and staying away from the drama could explain why she was the most underrepresented castaway of the season.
Heading into the game,Alison looked to be the fun doctorwho could provide a bit of quirkiness here and there. Though she didn’t get the chance to shine as much as I hope she would, I’m glad to hear that she’s still maintaining her winning presence within theSurvivorcommunity, even ifwe could all do without the “Hi Alison” memeonce the next season begins.
