The person outside of the final 3 that I think was probably most deserving is Julio. He was well connected and could consistently get his way.
Harry - After Tristan was idol'd out, I saw you as someone who had a locked in spot in the Final 3. After that vote, nobody was looking at you, and you even had Charlie and I apologizing to you profusely for lying to you that round. You really could've hand picked who to go against in the finals here. I think your biggest mistake now is bringing John so far. After hearing John's speech, do you believe bringing him to the Final 4 over me or Jamie or Sydney was a good move for your game?
If I had my way, I would have wanted to bring Jamie to 4 instead, but the deal you made with Alex made it impossible to save Jamie at that point. If I was able to cut you at 6 as John & I planned, my goal would have been to go to 3 with Alex and Jamie, eliminating John & Charlie along the way. Your social game made that difficult to execute, as I had to adapt in order to guarantee my own safest path to the f3.
I knew I could trust John to view the game the same way as I do. I needed him to help execute the blindside against you. If I had the choice, I would have cut him, as I tried to do at 4. I think this is more of a mistake on Charlie’s part than mine, as I told Charlie that John was the clear frontrunner, yet he essentially threw away his own best final scenario. With most of the quieter players leaving early merge, there were many threats to consider late game. Even though I was not able to take John out, I had the correct read on his threat level and knew I didn’t want to sit next to him. Charlie’s mistake doesn’t take away from the accuracy of my perception.
