Semi

Semi is a contestant on Genius Island: Agate

Genius Island I
For an individual game that didn't really start until day eighteen, Semi actually managed to accomplish quite a lot during his run. He won four tribe challenges, two individual challenges, voted in the majority at every tribal council other than two, and made it to the finale to cap it all off.

Although his game was quiet for a majority of the season, Semi definitely started to step it up at the final five. Once Dan targeted Steven he realized that things were really coming down to the wire, moves were being made, and no one was safe. And more importantly, he was close to the finale and had nothing to lose.

After Steven was eliminated, it was time for Semi to start playing seriously to ensure that he and his number on ally Dan would make it to the finale together. Semi clutched out and frankly dominated the final four and final three immunity challenges to guarantee his spot in the finale. But he wanted to make sure that Dan made it with him.

At the final four tribal council Semi and Dan targeted Elx as the final former Achilles member left in the game. However, the simple task proved to be quite difficult when Dano made the decision to force a tie in order to improve his own odds of making the finale. Fortunately, Dan won the tie breaker which sent Elx home. With their then majority, Semi was able to eliminate Dano after winning the final immunity challenge.

At the final tribal council things weren't looking too great for Semi. He already didn't have a very strong shot of beating anyone in the final five due to his lack of gameplay and short resume. And on top of that he questionably chose to take the strategical juggernaut Dan with him. And if that wasn't enough, he failed to give the jury opening and closing speeches in addition to not answering any of their questions. With all the odds stacked against him and then some, Semi became the first Genius Island runner up in a unanimous 7-0 vote.
