Notable Moments

Season 9

Waiver started off Season 9 in a great position, in a powerful alliance with players such as Wizard. However, after the swap, it was clear he had fallen out of power and was going to be taken out unless his tribe won out. He was able to win challenges until the reset, which caused Lightning to unintentionally lose an idol and a vote block which would've sent Waiver home. Lightning was voted out that tribal, thus causing a controversial topic in the general chat: Was this a fair elimination? However, soon after Lightning's boot, a second super idol would be spawned, which Waiver found. He was on the wrong side of a 5-1 number disadvantage, and when his tribe lost a challenge. It soon became clear he was going home thanks to the work of Aurora and Lunar. When the votes came out and read 5-1, Waiver said the lines "Well. That is rather unfortunate, but I don't think I'm going anywhere.", and soon after, he played his super idol to save himself. After that tribal, it became clear he would become the target at merge, and after unsuccessfully targeting lunar, he went home in an 8-2 vote. Many felt like he played a weak game and that he was swap screwed. He voted Erwin to win, citing that there had to be a 2nd place, and he thought it might as well be Erwin.

Season 11

After feeling robbed after Season 9, Waiver came back for Social Butterflies vs Strategic Beasts, going onto the Strategic Beasts tribe. However, a day one target was put on his back from Rosie, which he was never able to shake off. The eventual winner of the season, Athy, dragged him through the premerge stage of the game, preventing him from going home. As soon as he reached merge, he was voted out 7-5 after unsuccessfully targeting Rosie. Many felt as though the cast had it out for him. He voted Athy to win, as he felt she was calling the shots for most of the game, which was true.

Season 12

After feeling like he's been robbed of a fair shake, he came back for a 3rd time in 4 seasons for Season 12: David vs. Goliath. He made quick early game bonds with Dev and Matthew, both of which would work in his favor through premiere. Waiver became of a seemingly stacked alliance containing Mikey, ZJ, Man, Ozzy, and himself. This alliance ran the premerge stage of the game, and thus put Waiver in a power position. However, something strange would happen at a tribal council. After Ozzy unintentionally voted for himself, 3 other people hopped on to send him home in a messy 4-3-2 vote, thus causing Waiver's strategy of bringing Ozzy and ZJ as meat shields to the merge to fail. It seemed like he would be fine, controlling the Tyrone and Julfen boots after his tribe was whittled down to 5 members as opposed to the Davids 7. For the first time, Waiver survived the first merge tribal as he wasn't the initial target coming into it. However, Parrot would spot that he was going to be an issue coming later into the game, and the Davids numbers decided to stick together to boot him out. These 7 would stick together for his boot, led by Parrot as he attempted to turn the tides in the game. Afterwards, Waiver became enraged and put it into general. After about an hour, he was able to settle down and understand his failures, but still feel robbed in the process. He voted Matthew to win, as he was a dependable ally to Waiver.

Eviction Notice Season 1

Waiver came back for another season, Eviction Notice Season 1. He initially was unable to start with an ally, before a rep, Vinn, reached out to him and became his ally. Waiver quickly formed alliances with the likes of Season 4's winner Xavier, as well as Ice and Keeper. However, at the first Eviction Ceremony, Vinn won the challenge, and nominated Waiver's ally Vinn along with Ice and Parrot. Vinn won safety, and chose to discard. At the votes, Waiver tried his hardest to save his allies, but it did not work, and Keeper and Van were sent home 16th and 15th, respectively. After that, Vinn and Waiver went on a quiet stretch, being safe due to Ice and Xavier, his allies, winning the next 3 household challenges before Vinn finally came back and won another. Waiver's direct input left Ice and Parrot on the chopping block, and due to that input and his connections through the game at that point, they went home. Shortly after came the Jury Return Competition, which Ice came victorious in. This was great news for Waiver, as he could fake it as though Vinn did it and he had no control over what happened. Ice would later get his revenge. However, for the time being, as long as Xavier and Vinn were winning HoH's, he was never in danger. He was not nominated until the f5, when Juji17 put him against Ice. However, Waiver finally pulled his act together and won the safety, saving himself, and Juji nominating Xavier instead. To Waiver's dismay, his ally was evicted in a 2-1 vote, leaving him with only Vinn at that point in the game. It was at that point where Vinn won HoH, but something wild happened. He nominated himself after using the safety on Juji, and he was sent home by Juji's sole vote, wishing to save Ice. At the final 3, Waiver knew he had to win or he was a goner, and he came close, losing by .25 in the final competition, Paint Wars. He was promptly sent home by Juji's sole vote.

Waiver voted Juji to win.
