Okay so firstly I want to thank Slothy for bringing me to final 2.
Now for why I think I deserve to win this game.
I started the game with a very unsure outlook on group games having played 1 in the last 10 years on this website.
I started by aligning with a solid final 4 called FOUSLAY with myself, Slothy, Nick and Paul.
3 of us made the final 3 so I would say this was a good & loyal alliance.
As well as this, I made good connections with the rest of the cast, especially with Sam who I actually told about this alliance and trusted fully.
I knew I played a good social game (not all of this was game as I formed some amazing friendships) with a lot of people and didn’t want to throw off my alliance by not nominating their targets. So I made a big thing of inactives PUBLICALLY in the chat and how they should be kicked from the game. I actually threatened to leave and got really stressed out and argumentative, but this was all part of my game so people in FOUSLAY wouldn’t suspect me when I went for inactive players rather than the threats, therefore allowing the rest of my alliance to get all the blood on their hands.
I then set myself up in case I won HOH (knowing I could just nominate inactives) because they all knew how ‘I would leave the game '.
I also stayed in close with people not in my main alliance by messaging them veto help like ‘remember to post sits on shelf’ without actually having proper alliances with these people (Brittany, you for example). I led them to believe that I was an asset to them within the game in case they managed to pull off a HOH win. This therefore set me up on all sides of the house.
When it got nearer to the end I ensured I won competitions. For example winning 2 POVs and saving Sloth 2 times in a row. So you could say he brought me here with Final HOH, but then again would he have been in F3 if it wasn’t for me saving him both those times?
I then won Final 4 HOH knowing I could keep myself safe from 4th place and nominate without necessarily gaining any blood on my hands.
I was on the block once all game (until final 3, when Slothy won HOH) and i convinced all but 1 person not to evict me.
Therefore my stats are:
-Nominated once until final 3
-One eviction vote cast against me AL GAME
-3 HOH’s
-3 POV’s
Credits to the jury:
9th - Birks - I would say you are a mastermind of games like these, you seem great at conversations and the social aspect of the game and strategy. I really do think it makes my case the fact that you got evicted on my HOH because I think you would have been very difficult to beat in the end if I hadn't have nominated you at this early point of jury.
8th - Paul - You are the robbed goddess of FOUSLAY. We knew each other coming into this game, but I think the game has ultimately just brought us much closer together. We were on the block together and I think I played well because even though you are my friend I didn't let this affect how I campaigned to stay in the game, I stayed by a 4-1 vote and therefore only 1 person saved you over me. I think you should reward me on this gameplay honestly.
7th - Keizo - You are somebody I grew to love chatting to in this game, but we had never really spoken much on a game level. Remember SLOTHY evicted you in a tie against Brittany. I saw you as a bit of a floater honestly, but I do respect that you played with integrity and didn't lie to me and were always there to speak to no matter what I really hope I have done enough to get your vote.
6th - Christian - I know early on I made a side alliance with yourself and Nick which was called 'Phase 3', but there was no talk in this chat after the first hour or so. I really hope you are not bitter about this, because ultimately I stayed very truthful and loyal to an alliance that was formed on Day 1. When Sam was HOH, I used POV on Slothy to ensure that you left instead of him as I knew that FOUSLAY would control the vote in the end to get you out and you were much more of a threat to us as an alliance than Brittany. I feel like maybe if I hadn't have used the VETO on Slothy here, you would have stayed and Slothy would not have the trust in me to get me to this point I am at now. Sorry, I hope you respect my game.
5th - Brittany - We seldom spoke about game Brittany, but when we did I was always honest with you, you asked me for my vote and I told you straight up whether or not I was saving you. I never lied to you and at F5 although Slothy kept you and myself and Nick voted you out, I hope you realise I was always honest and did what I had to do to get myself to the end.
4th - Sam - SAMMMMY. We were this seasons Showmance, we called ourselves International Love very early in if you remember. I was honest with you, i told you about the FOUSLAY alliance from early days and always made sure if I was to veto someone etc that you would not be getting evicted. I proved this when I vetoed Slothy knowing you would go up (but I knew that you would have mine and Nick's votes to stay). I know you are robbed because you had to go on holiday, but real life is more important! I had a great time getting to know you just sucks you aren't closer :O
3rd - Nick - Honestly Nick, I have so so so enjoyed getting to know you with our conversations, I think you did amazing to get so far without being on Tengaged. I will be fully honest with you, I think myself and Slothy are the most worthy finalists for that reason as we were always able to play in the comps etc, but I do think you did crazy well to get so far. Do what your heart tells you..
GOOD LUCK to you Slothy me and you killed this season with a massive amount of competition wins. I really hope the person who played the best game wins.
