I guess I’ll do a closing statement as well.
Coming into this game with 16 people, I knew this was going to be a whirlwind of a season. From the very start to the very end, I had to play on the defense due to the fact that every single round of this game, somebody either was actively targeting me, or wanted to target me. It wasn’t an easy road by any means, but I somehow am sitting here at the end.
I will be the first to say that I did not play a perfect game, because had I done so, I would’ve waltzed through this game with relative ease and not had to worry. But no, every single round I was worried for my life because I was this big target.
My opponent Newz is going to keep bringing up the fact that all I did was win competitions, however that is not the case. He said that he had to work his butt off from Final 6 onward to save himself? Well I had to work from Final SIXTEEN to make sure I wasn’t one of the first to go. From Day 1 I had somebody so openly targeting me and yet here I sit in the Final 2. That’s not by luck or comp wins ALONE, that’s by having good intuition, a good strategic read on people in the game, and socially placing myself in the right positions to gain longevity throughout this season.
Strategically and socially I worked my tail off to ensure that on weeks where I could not compete…I was not targeted. And that proved to be very effective considering I did not go on the block after Week 2 all the way until the Final 5.
I played my heart out, and I really do think I played the winning game this season. Regardless of these ‘too good to be true’ moves that Newz allegedly pulled off, I hope you can see through it all and notice that I had a decent hold on this game, and that there’s no way this would be the Final 2 without my presence this season.
I very kindly ask for your votes tonight as I really do think I deserve to win and represent our season as a whole. I’ll respect whatever you do and goodluck Newz.
