“ | If I wasn't already out of the game, I'd quit in protest. | ” |
–Brendan |
Bwburke94, aka "Brendan", is a contestant from Survivor: Nepal, Survivor: Revival, and Survivor: Mortals vs. Immortals.
He is known for receiving votes at almost every Tribal Council he attended, and for receiving 22 votes against him in his two seasons, at the time a Survivor: Wikia record. He also had memorable feuds with Ash and Hoenn in Nepal, and with Luke and Joshie in Revival.
However, he is most well-known for his "quit in protest" rant shortly after his Revival elimination, when he (incorrectly) judged the tiebreaker challenge between Raphael and Joshie to be biased in favor of Raphael.
Brendan became an ORG Wiki admin in 2013, but was fired from the role in early 2014 due to his tendency to add badly-coded CSS to the wiki. He continued to run the Survivor Wiki bot on the ORG Wiki until early 2016.
Profile[]
As a child, I was often singled out due to my aggressive behavior and learning differences. In early 2005, I learned that I had Asperger Syndrome (later redefined as part of the autism spectrum), explaining a lot of my differences.
I bounced around from school to school for a while - at one point, I attended four or five schools in a six-year span. I found a school for autistic students in Brattleboro, Vermont that helped me realize who I really was.
A few years ago, I began watching Survivor. I know I haven't been watching quite as long as some of you, but my opinions as a fan are much more aligned with those of long-term viewers. I despise Russell Hantz and don't understand his fans, despite his antisocial behavior sometimes matching mine. I also think that returning players have been overdone in recent years.
Survivor: Nepal[]
Name (Age): Brendan Burke (18)
Tribe Designation: Chitwan
Current Residence: Conway, Massachusetts, USA
Personal Claim Of Fame: Getting pwned by Francesca Hogi on Facebook.
Inspiration In Life: My parents. They have done so much for me over these past 18 years to get me through school, and their efforts have finally paid off.
Hobbies: Video games, Survivor, and sleeping.
Pet Peeves: People who think Russell Hantz should have won, people who think Kim Spradlin is a top-10 winner, and people who think Redemption Island is a good idea.
3 Words To Describe You: Awesome, crazy, strategic.
If you could have 3 things on an island what would they be and why: Food, water, and women. The first two are for my survival, the third one is because I'd go even more crazy if I didn't have someone with me on the island.
Survivor Contestant you are Most Like: Ken Hoang. Though I'm not as good at SSBM as he is.
Reason for being on Survivor: To show everyone here that I'm more than just a know-it-all.
Why do you think you will be Sole Survivor: I won't be Sole Survivor. All of Chris's sockpuppets will vote me out first.

Survivor: Revival[]
Name (Age): Brendan Burke (18)
Tribe Designation: Regreso
Current Residence: Brattleboro, Vermont, USA
Personal Claim Of Fame: Getting blindsided last time out. Unanimously.
Inspiration In Life: My parents. Same reason as last season - that rhyme wasn't intentional, I swear.
Hobbies: I'm not so sure sleeping counts as a hobby, so I'll just say Survivor and video games.
Pet Peeves: People who change text colors in tribeboxes. We've been over this already.
3 Words To Describe You: I. WANT. REVENGE.
If you could have 3 things on an island what would they be and why: Same as last time.
Survivor Contestant you are Most Like: Ken Hoang. Though I'm not Asian and he's not autistic.
Reason for being on Survivor: I'm not going down so easily this time. I know what to look out for this time.
Why do you think you will be Sole Survivor: Having people from outside the USA on my tribe will help, for once.

Survivor: Mortals vs Immortals[]
Profile[]
Name (Age, Pronouns): Brendan (28, He/Him)
Hometown: Leverett, MA (or maybe Brattleboro, VT if you stretch it; I was technically living there during Revival)
Current Residence: Belchertown, MA
Personal Claim to Fame: On this ORG, it's being the "quit in protest" guy, and maybe getting kicked off the Turkey hosting team before Day 1. Outside of Survivor, I haven't done much of note.
Pet Peeves: Waiting a decade of real time to come back for my third shot. Part of this is the lack of good themes for me; I'd already played twice so an outright Second Chance season wouldn't work, and I went out pre-merge both times so an outright All-Stars wouldn't work.
Favorite Past Moment: I have a hard time answering this because I only played 27 days (albeit that's still longer than a New Era season), so I have to say it's the Jastine blindside in Revival. Not only is it a rare case of me voting for the eventual boot, but I'd been planning it for quite a while, as could be seen from my confessionals.
Favorite Real-Life Survivor Player: I'm answering with the Alligabler because I plan on hiding in plain sight. Even this answer is part of my plan.
Survivor ORG Player You Respect The Most: [Response redacted]
Survivor ORG Player You Respect The Least: From my own seasons, Joshie. (Yes, it's Joshie and not Luke; this rivalry of ours predated Main.) Outside my own seasons, it's Chris, Cassie, and Lance.
Why did you come back?: Because this season apparently needs an emergency replacement.
Why are you a(n) Mortal/Immortal?: I'm a Mortal because I went out pre-merge in dumb circumstances both times. The mutiny/penalty switch gave me a chance to survive rather than being stuck at the bottom of an 11-4 minority; it just didn't work out.
Why will you become Sole Survivor?: Post-Revival, I've become the eternal merge boot, and with a cast like this I don't think I can even get that far... but Survivor isn't played on paper. Maybe I can do the impossible.
