Since you've made some comments that I don't agree with, I'll argue them here too.

My first example of this is in your ROP, when you say Jenna had the best move of the pre merge by flying UTR when she secretly had the idol the whole time.
 * I never said she secretly had the idol the whole time, I said she had one of the best premerge moves that I witnessed due to her idol play.

And I know this has already been pointed out but no, you’re not the reason I’m gone.
 * I was literally the third vote against you in that tribal council, if I voted Vincent like I was supposed to you would've survived, so yes I was the reason you went home.

We hardly talked strategically (even though you said in your ROP for me that we talked strategically a ton) and both times we did talk strategically (my boot and Tyler’s boot) it was because I needed a number
 * It was my impression you trusted me enough to leak the Tyler elimination to me, so why wouldn't I presume our relationship was closer as a result of you giving me information you really didn't need to? Also, we talked strategy during the Pory boot as we came up with a plan to split the votes between Vincent and either Pory or Lexi, with you specifically saying "I like Vincent but I don’t like Vincent with an idol". That means we talked strategy for 3/4 of the merge tribal councils, and we obviously didn't for the first one as I voted you off.

My last thing is that based on your speeches it seems like most of your post merge game is based on that f11 rocks tribal
 * Well for starters, your elimination was completely irrelevant to the Rock Draw at Final 11. I explained how I made a move against Seamus at the Final 5 and how I tried to eliminate Zach at Final 4, both of which again were irrelevant to the Rock Draw.

Explain to me again how you yourself caused Vincent and I to go home
 * I know you said I can keep it brief, although I wouldn't be properly explaining myself if I did.
 * For your elimination, my alliance of 5 organised a split between you and Vincent in the case Vincent uses his idol. I already knew coming into this tribal council that I was going to make this move against you because I didn't want people to think we were a duo as you told me a lot of things about the game, such as Tyler's elimination and an apparent fight between you and Big Z/Seamus. Lexi already told Seamus that she thought me and you were a duo, which Seamus relayed to me, and from that point I knew I couldn't afford to keep you in the game. Seamus then suggested that I flipped to vote you anyway since if Vincent did play his idol the tie wouldn't have occurred, but obviously I wasn't going to give away that me flipping onto you was my plan all along, so I played along with what Seamus said as in effect I could do the same thing and blame him if it backfired. Then I voted you and you went home 3-2-2-1, exactly how it was supposed to happen.
 * Vincent's vote wasn't as heavily influenced by myself although I ended up being in the swing position again, either voting for him or Zach, and I wanted to stay strong with my alliance of four since flipping at that stage wouldn't have benefited me at all, and Lexi already broken trust between us by keeping Drew's rock decision a secret from myself. I wanted the idol gone though, so the decision wasn't as convoluted as the previous tribal council.

Rank my relationships with everyone remaining in the game at 8:59 AM, one minute before votes were due at the final 8.
 * Vincent > Lexi > Seamus > Jp > Liam > Damien > Big Z

Also, please rank your relationships at that point in the game
 * Seamus > Damien > Marty > Jp > Big Z > Lexi > Vincent

how likely do you think you are to get my vote?
 * A 5 or a 6 depending on Jp's response to your questions. Throughout this entire final tribal council I've been fighting and justifying myself constantly, despite whether people believe what I'm saying. I used logical thinking in all of my decisions and used information I gathered from people to aid me in making decisions which I thought would impact my game for the better. I think I've also demonstrated that I've understood a lot of what happened in the game as of the merge after the Final 11 rock draw. It may not have been clear at the time, but I did step up my game following that tribal council especially as I myself was so close to being rocked out and I really wouldn't have been satisfied with the game I had played up until that point.
