Hello Jurors,
When I originally got the invite to All-stars back in August/September, I declined. I got a lot of shit in my original season and just kind of backed away from the series as a whole.
I was very hesitant to play again. Every season that went by, Poohsnap would tell me how the cast still constantly shits on me for playing on a multi, Coyote (at the time that was my main account and I was not using my Piddu account). My previous win is often seen as a fluke, a joke, and just outright undeserving. Not only did I feel like I wasn't very liked or welcomed in the series, but I assumed I'd be quickly targeted and ruin my legacy.
About 3 days before the cast reveal, I had a change of heart and mailed PoohSnap and asked to be part of the season, in which he replied saying the cast was already finalized but he'd talk to Kat. Thankfully, I was accepted. I decided I wanted to play a second time, this time under my Piddu account, and actually prove to the cast and viewers that I did deserve my win.
I feel like I played a strong strategic game, strong social game, and strong physical game. I won a ton of competitions, I made alliances and bonds and played a crucial role in the early stages of the game by playing both sides, and I spammed my ass off when I was in danger.
Overall, my target/threat level was extremely high coming in and grew throughout the game. I didn't have the luxury to coast/float. I won the Launch Night immunity challenge, the double nomination power and the quadruple eviction twist, thus making enemies.
I know a lot of the cast is like "he's a good spammer," but literally even a monkey can spam? It's not a SKILL to be good at spamming. Anyone can send out 100s of mails and ask for votes. I never had it easy, since people like to say I was able to rely on my popularity. The 100s of pages in my outbox of me spamming and the countless hours I put into spamming says otherwise.
I had a lot of fight in me, especially after the Coyote fiasco and I had a lot to prove this time around by coming in with the reputation I had. I feel like every single person on the jury can validate that I did talk game with them and I didn't just float or take a backseat.
