Cut - Osten Taylor

567. Osten Taylor - Season 7 - Pearl Islands

Osten was a complete flop on the island, and not in a fun way (save for his funny moment with Ryno’s pelican). I’m cutting him however because he did leave an impact on the show that can’t be overlooked - being the first official quit. While yes, other people may have asked to be voted out had Osten not quit, but him officially quitting the game opened the floodgates, and people now see it as a possibile way to leave the game pre-maturely. It’s also so frustrating and saddening to see someone quit the game, knowing that all those who left before them wanted to be there, and that there were thousands that applied that would’ve loved their spot on the island and would’ve stuck it out. So, for being the first quit, and flopping as a player, Osten is getting cut.

Save - JT Thomas Jr (34) - Looking back, I see JT’s latest performances as more of a fun, pre-merge trainwreck, so that can stay for a bit.
