Stars 161 Finals Blog

4thDec 18, 2011 by Markb101
imageI want to start this by saying a huge thank you to everyone that has supported me this week, whether you're supporting me because of my gameplay or not, it means a lot to me that some of you go out of your way to message me wishing me luck and congratulations < 3 :)

Oh and also a warning: I suck at doing these type of speeches :| inb4 tl;dr

I came into this game completely unknown more-or-less i literally had people blogging asking who i was because they had never heard of me before, most of the screenies didn't show me ending on a high spot and i kind of agreed with them to a certain point, i knew if i got nominated that would probably be the end of my stars journey.

On the first day i was a counter-nomination and i didn't really understand why they was targetting me, it didn't make sense at all to me. But after it sank in, i realised that maybe i wasn't so certain of getting far because of my unpopular nature, if they was willing to put me up for 16th, i could go up any time. This is where i realised if i'm going to do anything worthwhile in this game, i HAVE to try and go un-nominated or i'd be out.

On Day 3, i started talking to Danny, who was probably playing the game at the time, but we spent so much time talking that we actually formed a friendship from this game, but without anyone knowing, i was nominating with him for a while.  Then once TopChef/Superman/Sweet_Susan flipped, AFTER i'd already done it, they took the full brunt of the blame whilst i just sat back and let them take it. I went round after round of nominating how i wanted with both sides not suspecting anything, until we got to Sweet_Susan/TopChef which was the nomination which basically drew the line in the sand.

Renominating TopChef straight away was one of the only options to be made at the time, snoofle was gaining so much momentum because of her mom that it was either Top or Dino that had to go up against her, But yet again her mom makes a blog (this time a vlog of random singing for no reason), she used Etiennes crotch as a picture and tengaged saves her undoubtedly, I thought it was kind of low, Kyle(Top) had actually played the game so hard and to be evicted to her because of that was a low blow.

Getting down to 5th, TopChef gave me his vote to use, i was sceptical but i thought i'd take a chance, Me and Dino started talking and we both decided snoofle was gaining too much momentum and if she went up again she would be steamrolling her way to the finals, so Dino nommed Danny/Tim, Danny nominated Dino/Tim, Tim nominated Dino/Danny, snoofle nominated Dino/Danny, TopChef nominated Danny/Tim after speaking to me and Dino about it, I actually went ahead and nominated Dino/Tim leaving it a 4-4-4 Tie in which anyone could have gone up. Bringing me to the final 5, just 1 more step was needed to get here un-nominated, snoofle/dino/me wasn't nominated this day which i had hoped gave me a leverage to sway Tim and Danny to nominate the two biggest popularity threats in this game, i wasn't sure that was going to happen but because of what happened the day before with Dino nominating Danny, he wanted him up but knew he would survive against me, so Me/Tim/Danny all nominated Dino/Snoofle for the final day.

And Lexi can say all she wants about how no-one was targetting me blah blah blah, fact is, she nominated me/dino on that day, she wanted me up but she failed :\ Dino also wanted me up this day, obviously no-one wants an un-nommed player in the finals, but it was too little too late, i got the votes i needed to stay un-nominated.

You can call me a sheep, you can call me a flipper, you can call me a floater, you can call me a liar. But you're also going to have to call me un-nominated and a gameplayer along with those names, the reason i had to lie and promise people the world is that i knew as soon as i was up, i was gone, i couldn't play honest and risk getting put up. Overall: My strategy was to remain quiet whilst the others around me imploded at each other, people never pointed the finger at me even when they had valid reason to.

Dannyjr0587 - I didn't think i could come into the game and form a friendship like we did, but it happened and i'm very happy that i gained that from this game :)
Timster - You played really well for your first stars, grats on surviving not 1 but 2 evictions, i couldn't have done that :)
Seal - In the early days you was like the mentor for me and Tim, then you got out to Dino which sucked, i'll definitely be supporting you 3 in the next stars.
TopChef - You played a great game! Sad you got evicted to someone with high popularity because it could have been you here.
Sweet_Susan - I know you're probably disgusted i got here, but that's only because you went up and out for 7th, sorry Gabe :s
Snoofle - I don't think i've ever seen someone so bitter in my entire life, You can't comment on gameplay when yours relies on getting your mom to sing for you.
DiNoM - I'd rather you made the finals, but you didn't and i'm quite shocked tbh, you worked the public all week, but what can i say, in the early days we both said i could go un-nommed and not win this game, you agreed with me, i wonder if we was right.

Everyone in this cast was fun to either work with or work against, IF i ever joined again, i hope i get a cast even half as good to suit me as this one did.

Just because you went un-nominated doesn't mean you deserve to win. /: A lot of people nominate based on popularity, and since you had basically none, well that makes it a lot easier for you to skate by. You even mentioned in your speech, people wanted Lexi up because she was gaining popularity. Just because you went un-nominated doesn't mean you're the best gameplayer.
I went un-nominated in my first stars and princesskk was just as good if not better than me. just saying. :|

Ahhh, great game!
Only thing that kinda bigs me was that you played all sides ... its people like you in stars that can be rattish and frustrating lol, but I'm a firm believer in sticking to one side, unless absolutely forced to change plans lol. So muchlying too ... but it got you there unnommed, so I have to give you props!

I think you'd be one of my nightmare players if we were ever in stars together, but eh, good luck! :)
