Jury, This game wasn’t about flashy moves for me. It was about information, trust, and timing. Before the merge, I built a key relationship with Ice, and that relationship was the first time I changed my entire trajectory. Ice trusted me enough to tell me about an idol, and because I had that information, I was able to prepare for votes before they happened. Knowing where the votes were going allowed me to influence outcomes, including idoling someone on the opposing alliance, forcing a tie, and putting myself in a position where I was never the target. When I was vulnerable, I leaned into my social game. My relationship with Jake kept me safe in a round where I was likely going home. At the merge, I entered in the minority, but instead of scrambling, I adapted. I formed genuine bonds with Lee and Trueblood, stayed off the radar, and once again gained critical information…another idol. When Charlie told me the Jake vote was locked in, I passed that information to Lee, which allowed our alliance to flip the game and take control. That round paved the way for me to sit here today. The only time I truly felt in danger was at final three, and even then, my social connection…even with someone I didn’t work closely with all game kept me in it. I won one immunity, but far more importantly, I never needed immunity because my relationships and decisions protected me. I knew who had every single idols this game and knew it would be used never to put me at a disadvantage by rather advance me further. Throughout the entire merge, I only had two votes cast against me. I didn’t dominate by force. I survived and advanced by building trust, managing information, and making the right moves at the right time. That’s why I believe my game deserves your vote. Good luck, Charlie. I’m happy to answer any questions.

This was definitely the most dramatic outcasted I have played, from a terrible comp start on my tribe, everyone fighting at merge, and to surviving these last few votes when I truly had no business making it this far. Clearly, some of my closest friends here got slayed really early into this game and I had to make and build new connections to get here. All of you guys were very kind to me and that helps a lot during this holiday season. I had a ton of fun playing with all of you and I hope you can say the same <3 gg everyone

First game writing something like this but I think this cast deserves some tributes Metropolis - Well we didn't talk which lead to us voting eachother here. I was a little surprised you wanted to come for me since I thought we worked well together our last game we played. I dont know if it was your idea at first or if you just thought I was most likely to get the votes but I hope next game we try to talk. Haus - Im not not sure how much you remember but I dont think we got along on the old site so I was a little nervous when trueblood said you were their #1 ally :/ Kovaze is a place for new beginnings so im glad we got to talk and work together here, I dont understand your last message you sent because I definitely did vote with you! An idol and a stacker score really had you screwed either way and it would've been interesting to see how this game played out if we could've taken control. Travis - First thing I heard at merge was that you were coming for me.. I wasn't completely shocked but a little since I didn't think we had a negative relationship. You did end up saving me tho which I appreciate greatly and im sorry I was ignoring you the day you went home. I was already in too deep with everyone else in the game and I didn't want to start making more promises I wouldn't be able to keep, even if I tried to save you that round there wasn't much I would be able to do for you after and after hearing what you said when we merged I wasn't sure how much I could trust you personally. Trueblood - You were genuinely my final two. You were so sweet to me ever since this game first started and you helped me so much. My biggest regret was not being able to fight for you as much as you fought for me. Our only real option to take control back would've been to flip light and vote jake but he kept winning immunity so we didn't have a lot of options. I tried to get myself voted out before you to give you another chance to fight or at least one better placement and they didn't want to listen so obv I had to lock back in and make it here for you <3. Lee - I loved talking to you this game and meant a lot of what I said. I was very very interested in making it to the end with you when this game started but it just didn't work out that way. I'm sorry that I hurt you when I voted you out, I gave everyone a chance to get rid of me the day change before when I was clearly working a little too close with everyone to manage and no one wanted to take it. The next day I got approached by cray and light saying we could be the final three and I thought it would be cool for our tribe to make the end so I went with it. You also did betray me first, I didn't think it was fair to hold things I said about the last day change against me when you went back on your word and said you wouldn't vote me an hour before you locked me in and almost got me sent home when I trusted you completely. Light - King, we definitely were in the most interesting spot this game. I was pretty sad you weren't around for the merge dc because I was really trying to see where your head was at and what direction we should go because we were right in the middle. You said for most of the game you would be fine taking third to me and cray so you not volunteering when jake won immunity was a little messy but im not holding it against you. Hope we can play again soon Jake - Sorry to do this to you, especially after you just saved me last round. I just felt like I had to take cray since me and him have talked so much since day 1 and every day after. I don't think you made any enemies this game and played a really quiet game on my end and I still dont understand a few things you did, like voting out Cameron or what really happened at the merge tribal. But thank you for pulling through for me at f4 you will always have my love and respect. Cray - Well we did it. We finally worked together lol. You have always been a sweet presence in games and always try to reach out just to usually end up with a knife in your back from me. I lowkey definitely shouldn't be taking you after you lied about voting out light with me, but you did have my back throughout the game and you worked very hard to get here. You are a strong player and I hope we get to work together again soon. Gl <3

LMAO I had to do that for old times sake
