SEAN'S QUESTION
"Jeremy: Tell the jury how you overcame the obstacles faced"
1. I had to work, and it time away from me in the game. I won't argue this a reason I should beat Jarrod. However, I will say that it somewhat negates his Aussie social handicap (that would be such a bad thing to say without context lol). Additionally, it helped make me a Sandra-esque challenge competitor. I did at least try to message everyone in the game at least once though so that they knew I wouldn't ignore them. Even though some of them ignored me :P.
2. I had to build those damned fires. Throughout this game I became the
#Firemaster or something else Chris called it. I would have rather avoided those fires. However, I did choose the superior strategy to win both of those duels whether I was lucky (Joe duel) or not (Alex R. duel).
3. Everyone single person on the jury has voted for me at least once, yet I sit here. I think that is certainly overcoming something.

" and why they deserve your vote over someone like Jarrod."
1. The biggest reason that I deserve their votes is that I played for their votes. While Jarrod certainly made decision that gave him a clearer path to the finals. I made decisions so that if I sat here I would have a good shot to win. Basically, I tried to make it so that anybody that took me to the finals was making a mistake. I'm not sure if I achieved this, but I would consider it if I were on the jury. Basically, I'm argue that Jarrod shouldn't have taken me (even though I would have taken him too :P).
2. This is connected to the reason above. I tried to get every jury vote along the way. Jarrod played the game to get here and hope the jury votes would be here. I think you have to take total goats to guarantee a win that way. I really believe that at least 75% if not more of the jurors talked to me more in general than Jarrod, and some of it wasn't even game talk. I was forging relationships.
3. I played the most honest game of the winners and still got here. Again, I wouldn't have been so honest if we had finished the Pagonging, but everyone made their moves against me first. People don't really have a reason to be upset at me. You (Sean) are the only person that I even slightly screwed over, but I made you understand that I only did it because I had to. I feel Jarrod did do some unnecessary things like making a deal with Rich, and pseudo-breaking our F4 by voting out Eddie.
