I don't know how many times prior to this game starting, I said to Sandy, Kirin, or the entire alumni chat, "Dear God, please cast this poor kid and put him out of his misery." I think he was the first person to comment on like every single cast reveal. He was overzealous, to say the least. I am surprised that he was never an original casting choice. He totally delivered. So glad he was in this season. It was sorta hard to not be a little endeared towards him, just because he was so into the game. Sometimes his behaviour came off a little desperate and needy, but meh. He was a great choice this season, and I really appreciated watching him pull off some underhanded moves. I do have to say, though, that I wasn't really fond of him saying that Ricky was fat. IDK if that's a joke because I don't really know their relationship but I really have an issue with former fatties (since he apparently is one) making comments like that. It bugs me a lot.

Eric, you were one of my favorites all season long! I love that you were always willing to turn the game around instead of stick with the status quo. Such an entertaining/endearing person to root for. Was bummed to see you leave when you did, but a game well played! I have a feeling you'll be back again. Hope you stick around for Alumni fun times ahead!

Eric was such a strong player in this game and definitely had the potential to take this game by storm. I think he played sloppy in the beginning by trying too hard to be a villain, and it was going to cost him had his tribe lost any more than they did, but he wound up working overtime and making relationships with the right people in order to protect him and I think he played strategically to assert himself in the perfect power position until it all came crashing down by those whose trust he had abused, basically. I think he was definitely a star character this season and it sucked seeing it all come crashing down for him!

I was rooting for you for as long as you were in the cast, because you're frigging hilarious, and play with that 'don't-give-a-damn' style that I wish I could play with. Your videos were awesome, too. You were one of the first people in years to completely have me baffled as to what you were going to do next, and a lot of the game was shaped by whatever move YOU made that round. That's amazing!

I know it's been said a million times, but it's true that this season would not have been the same without you. You were so amazing to watch in this game, you always had some extravagant plan and you were always thinking about your next move and I loved that. You really were entertaining and you kept the game so exciting because you brought so much to the table! I loved your video confessionals, your recorded skype calls, and just watching you dominate the challenges. It was amazing to watch! Oh, and I can't forget when you colored your face!! Hahaha. I really enjoyed getting to know you this season and I can't wait to talk to you more after this. It'll be so great to have you in the alumni!! #TeamCerealBowl!!! (I still want a signed cereal bowl!)

Forever #TeamCerealBowl
You were super entertaining and went from the power alliance to being unaware then in control. Quite an accomplishment and your confessionals were pretty entertaining!

I am truly happy that Naomi ended dropping last minute so that you could be in the case. At first I liked you based solely in physical attraction but the moment you admitted to be a chronic masturbator I literally LOL'd and figured out that you would be SO entertaining. I think you are hilarious, somewhat evil, and just the right kind of villain. I think I said it since the beginning but you were the villain that the game needed. You delivered SO much, round after round after round you just kept getting better. Your story-arc is impressive, your handle of strategy and awkward social interactions were just amusing to watch. You are entertainment and without you the season would not have been as amazing as it was. So, thank you for all you brought and sorry that I missed your downfall because of college, definitely something I wish I had been able to watch.

I've watched you grow as a player from stickam for gods sake and now look at you! Still awesome as before.
You're a great kid and I hope you play again and stick around for the future.
