Hi!

So first off, Trent consistently using that self vote as one of his main points in his argument is insulting not only to me but to the jury, I have explained thoroughly the reason behind that. It wasn’t strategic, it wasn’t me saying that I didn’t care about this game, it wasn’t me not making a decision. It was me having a life and with the deadline at 6:30 am I obviously wasn’t awake when the hosts reminded me. And furthermore his answers have consistently tried to shade me in not trying in challenges and speaking to everyone. I did try in every single challenge except one. I didn’t do that lip-synching one because I was studying for an exam. Other than that I tried my hardest in everything. I spoke to everyone and tried to form relationships so I just want you to know that.

As for your questions

1. I did realise early on that I would be better off playing an UTR game focussing more on relationships and tried to keep my name out of people’s mouths. I realised that this game had people with big egos that needed to be stroked, case in point Trent, so I guess what stopped me from controlling the vote was the fact that I didn’t see the need to “control” the vote. In saying that I was never a “lapdog” I voted the way I wanted to vote, when I voted I took all the situations into my decision. I had opportunities sent to me and I said the words “you are the first one to ask for my opinion” to various people. After you were voted out I knew that playing this overtly strategic game would get me sent out.

2.  I do admit that I did do things wrong in this game, I did lie to many people and that is seen with people perceiving me as a “flip flopper” so if I were to change something it would be the fact that I could have been a little more transparent but by saying that if I were more transparent I could have been targeted. I do also wish that I was more vocal, the jury seems to care more for a game that is flashy and big and if I was more vocal I could have shown that.

3. To make the case for Charlie, as someone who places an importance on the social side of the game Charlie showed his prowess in that aspect of the game. He was always nice even when you had recently voted against him. He also did amazing in challenges and when he was voted out he still kept a sense of decorum.

4. Let’s start with this, I genuinely did like Zak at the start. He seemed like a nice, funny person with a cute ass cat but then I had heard that he thought I was a bitch and a chore to talk to. So if I was gonna call him a bitch it would be because he exhibited bitchy behaviour towards me.

I will do the task soon but I wanted to put this here! :)
