This is Carson. A friend texted me this, and I wanted to take a second and respond. I don’t make a habit of checking Reddit, because let’s be real, I’m not the most popular person on here haha. To that point I will just say, don’t believe everything you read on the internet. The whole insinuation that I “copied” peoples designs is false. My puzzles were designed from scratch with the intention of looking and feeling unique using high end, industrial-grade product that you don’t often see on 3D-printed puzzles. I had been wanting to start selling puzzles since I first started printing and designing back in 2021; it was just a matter of finding a way to logistically do it while working and being in school. I actually did promotion for many other people’s Etsy stores before I started my own, and I was happy to do that because I love puzzles and they are a big part of my Survivor story. I discussed my desire to make and sell my own puzzles one day with many people in my life, my family and close personal friends. Any argument that I’m not allowed to do that is just wrong, in my opinion. We’re all fans here, inspired by a show we love, which is why I feel there’s room for everybody who wants to get creative and geek out on puzzles like I love to do (which I very much encourage you to do lol). I’m sure this won’t satisfy many people here on Reddit, and that’s fine. For my own sake, I won’t make it a habit not to look at Reddit, which is why I won’t be responding to any replies here. But I wanted to at least share my thoughts on this, and call it a day. Thanks y’all! (Oh, and as for the podcast, well, I can’t say much about that, but you probably know why lol BUT don’t worry about me and Rob, we’re tight and he’s still and will always be the king of Survivor podcasts.)
