The Anonymous 1 has its winner

Finally we know who won the first season of The Anonymous. We watched 10 eliminations, 2 handle resets, numerous lies and several back stabbings. One by one players were eliminated until the final 4 were left standing.

The Anonymous 1

First let’s explain how the show worked. The anonymous is a mixture of The Traitors and The Circle. Players compete in challenges to earn money for the prize pot and safety from elimination.

They enter anonymous mode where they vote for players to be eliminated. One player is named Anonymous who decides which player will be eliminated. One vote in anonymous mode can put you up for elimination.

The Finale started with 5 players left. Victoria, Christopher, Andy, Nina and Marcus. Marcus became the final anonymous, choosing to eliminate Victoria. This move split up the showmance. Victoria left without being able to say goodbye.

DANI informed the final 4 they would participate in a face-off to declare the winner. A face-off is where each player picks a box which in the finale contains the word LOSE or Win. 3 boxes hold the word LOSE, 1 holds the word WIN.

The Anonymous 1 is picked

Marcus, as the final anonymous, picked the order. Christopher went first, Andy went second, Nina went third and Marcus went last. Christopher tried to confuse the players to take his box but was unsuccessful.

Andy picked second. He had the box with WIN. He had to convince Nina and Marcus he had a losing box. Unfortunately for Andy Nina did not believe him. Instead of picking a new box Nina took Andy’s box.

Nina successfully convinced Marcus that Andy was telling the truth and had a losing box. DANI had both Christopher and Andy open their boxes. Both had the word LOSE in it. This left either Marcus or Nina as the winner!

Both opened their boxes at the same time revealing Nina as the winner of The Anonymous 1. Nina is no stranger to reality television. She has appeared on Survivor Australia. Her mother is considered ‘The Queen’ of Survivor US.

Sandra Diaz-Twine is Nina’s mother. Nina tried to keep her connection to Sandra a secret, but some players did figure it out. On winning Nina stated “I am the first winner of The Anonymous! My mom will be so proud, but she better watch out I’m coming for that crown.”

Of course wanting to leave the fans hanging DANI had the final word “The game is now complete. New players required.” Did you enjoy this season? Will you watch season 2.?
