Thank you Rain I honestly didnt expect you to take me lmfao but I appreciate you so much thank you <3 hope that speaks to my social game ;) From the beginning of this game I lost my #1 ally right away and I had merged from minority with two people omg and Sankey. Cristi I was also talking closely with from the other side and Jason here and there but at that point we had not talked enough. I was prioritizing the people I merged with and Cristi because I know she was one of few people that would make the move on Brxan but also just cause of prior games. Being in minority was not easy. Right away I lost OhEmgee. I also had a glaring problem of people wanting to protect Brxan. So it was nothing against Brxan but I know if I had a chance in this game it was to take him out. I had not realized how close Sankey was with Brxan who from past games I know would be after me 1st chance they got and Sankey being an ally of mine made it was hard with Brxan in the game so I had to kinda play around it. At the very least we still didnt go after each other so I had that going for me For 9th Camel and Cristi voted in minority to try and make a move against Brxan but sadly we were 1 vote shy and Camel went as a result For 8th me Cristi Jason were 1 vote shy and sadly she went as a result I also wasted an idol but alas it was not the end of me For 7th Jason came to me about not 1 but 2 idols he had. I also annouced in chat the beginning of the day how I had another idol but I did not. I think people always feared that in the back of their mind. The initial plan of the day was to take out Ricardo and I had ended up getting George to vote with us initially. When Jason came with me to the plan we had to make the move because no one was doing Brxan besides us. Not Ricardo Not George Not Sankey Not Rain. It ended up working in my favor and 1 because of how George vote but also how everyone else vote the votes were all over and Brxan went as a result. I knew that freed me up a good chunk of the rest of the game. Ricardo and George were people that voted for me so easy as that I just had to go after them too and they went 6-5 just like that. At 4 was tough because I had Rain who won immunity and 2 people who did a lot for me in the game. It was very hard but based off being the only 2 people to make the move against Brxan I had to owe it to Jason and it broke my heart but I had to vote Sankey here </3 At f3 I thought I was screwed. I thought no chance I was making finals but I was working extra hard to do plead my case do everything I can to pitch it to Rain to take me. He had just voted me the round before so I thought I was screwed but I did everything I could fought super hard and he ended up picking me <3 I worked my butt off in this game from beginning to end. I had made my way from a minority to a majority. Throughout the whole game I was never a main target for most people and I think that speaks a lot when I could have been as easy vote come merge. I worked overtime to work on my social game I did with everyone to make people feel good with me and it paid dividends to me up until the f3. Yes I used an idol but I did not need that kind of protection when Rain did with his immunities I did not cause of how strong my social game was. Rain also did not approach me until Brxan left when I had approached him early on so to me he didnt play the game until much later and he was one of most who would not vote off one of the biggest threats in the game. The only other one being me! Jk I do hope you see how hard I worked my butt off and how I did not need any kind of crutch to get me here and how I worked my butt off from beginning to end being in minority making it to the end of the game. Having huge social capital throughout!! Hope you can cast me as your winner <333 It would mean the world to me especially with how much I fought to get here!!! GL Rain and thank you again :)

Regardless, I feel like a speech is necessary. This was honestly a great week for me to join Outlasted. I knew I’d be too busy to commit to other games. Early on, our first tribe won the first three days, so things were pretty calm and low-stress. When it finally came time to vote, I knew sticking with Bryan was the safest option for me at that point. He was the only person I was consistently talking to, and that alliance was enough to get me through without receiving a single vote. Once we hit individuals, I had several days where I could only log on briefly. Even then, I made sure I knew where the vote was going and locked mine in. Around that time, Champ approached me about voting Bryan out, but I didn’t feel like it was in my best interest yet. I voted Camell and Cristi with Bryan and others with him, and while I do think voting with Champ earlier might have helped me go further than 4th or 5th, this was still working in my favor. I suggested to a four-person group that we tell Champ he was the vote so he’d burn his idol which he did. That was huge for my game. The following day was another busy one. I didn’t get the chance to talk to anyone, and while my vote was on Jason, I never even got to communicate it. When I logged back on and saw Bryan had been voted out, I won’t lie, it felt like a betrayal. But at the same time, it was good for my game, especially since I had just won my first immunity. From there, things really settled. I won the Immunities(all but one) I needed and tried to keep both sides of the house balanced so that if I ever did lose, I wouldn’t immediately become a target. I ultimately chose to take Champ to the finals because, aside from Bryan, he was the only person who consistently kept me in the loop during individuals. And honestly, if it’s not me winning, I think it should be him. This was my first time fully committing to an Outlasted game, and I’m proud of how it turned out — even if I end up in second place. I do believe I deserve the win after winning six immunities and never being pushed, but if some people choose to vote salty, that’s just part of the game. If you took the time to read all of this, I appreciate it. Happy holidays! I had a great time playing with most of you :) Goodluck Champ!

good job guys. i know im out here. if anyone feels inclined to try and take me to final 2 to be next to them , it might work out for u cuz in this game the only people i spoke to are Brxan, OhEmGee and Champ so i probably dont have many jury votes? but we shall see

I am the final 5 boot that gets extra screentime in finale episode but being irrelevant the whole game lmfao

IDK how you are an outsider, you voted with the majority. Eather way, I am not winning the game because I aint got these jury votes lmfao & clearly im not winning comps. Getting me out is stupid, but so be it

Sankey, I just said your name because idk whats going on. But I am also open to working with whoever. No one is working with me.

tbh George realistically the only person you could sway to join u would be the other outsider in this final 5 (me) so it is a little funny that you chose me to be your big callout vote. im voting you here and when i get 4th i wont regret voting you because you leaving now is kinda completely irrelevant. my game got torpedoed at the final 10 vote and has been on borrowed time since. so **that** vote is the one i regret. i did not really know who you were until this round. you sorta floated by unnoticed up to now.

The fact is, 2 people voted off after me will regret voting for me for 5th. Can’t wait to see which two 👀😛

Btw those of you who claim to have the last idol, don’t, I have it.

I love seeing the perspectives of other players it’s very interesting…

And Champ, if you sit next to Rain or Jason you have 3 jury votes guaranteed btw ;) Sankey has a bit too many connections on the jury not to win
