SMH WIKI LOGGING ME OFF. COPYING IT HERE.

Hi Joe! Thank you for your questions!

For starters, I'd like to say that bringing up "one of the hosts" to vindicate your opinion that this final 3 sucks is honestly tasteless and uncouth. Leave the hosts out of this. They honestly get enough shade as it is for fucking stupid reasons, like rigging seasons or being "negative". If you have an opinion, then state it without feeling the need to say "LOOK AT ALL THESE PEOPLE THAT HAVE MY BACK AND AGREE WITH ME". Grab your balls and own your opinion because it's your original thought.

I'd also like to clear something else up. I didn't speak to you after our first, awkward, painful conversation, which happened BEFORE Zane's blindside. Sure, I was fine with interacting with you in tribe chat, but when someone wants to be a brick wall in conversation, I'm gonna back the fuck off because that's what I learned to do in elementary school. No use crying over someone who doesn't want to talk to me, I'll just talk to someone else. And I did. And I'm here now. So yes, I didn't put forth effort into talking to you because guess what, there are other people that are willing to talk to me, even in spite of conflict! Alex and I were fine with talking to each other, and even worked with each other on some level, even if people wanna spin some ME revenge bullshit story. Tyler and I are probably the greatest proof of overcoming bad energy in this game. Hell, even Evan and I were able to work together, and I would have worked with him for the next vote had he not voted me like a half hour after the final challenge results were up. I'm not gonna waste my time with someone who's so short-sightedly comfortable within his own alliance. And if you want to say I wasn't willing to breach my own alliances because I was comfortable too, then let's go through this together, shall we? I voted against Nuno for the Perry vote, but apparently people want to think we were conjoined at the hip. Although I knew Perry was going home, I felt like I had to try to trust his word that you and Dom were with him. I voted Alex out. He was only briefly an ally, but an ally nevertheless. When the Sam vote happened, the idea going into that was Dom had immunity obviously, but she still had an idol that everyone knew about. We weren't sure if she would play it on you, or save it for herself. In the event that she played it on you, I would vote Tyler to at least take one of your alliance out as opposed to none. We assumed Alex was the target because we didn't anticipate Evan flipping, so Alex had to use his idol to save himself. It's really simple math actually, but I understand it's difficult to see when you're not willing to give the person in question ANY benefit of the doubt. ANYWAY. I voted Szymon, someone who I really wanted to trust but couldn't because we were constantly disagreeing on who the target should be. I voted out Dom too, the person I told you I wanted to win BECAUSE I DID WANT HER TO WIN. At that point it time, I was completely gobsmacked by the plan she came up with (and tbh I still am today, that vote deserves to be in a hall of fame of plays). I wasn't lying when I said I wanted her to win, but again, I remembered I was in the midst of a competition so I couldn't just wave my Dom pennants and jump and holler from the bleachers like I wanted to. Dom would have robbed us with our pants down if I hadn't voted her out.

So, why am I deserving of being called an "All-Star"? Because contrary to what you allege, my social game was actually lethal, but I was able to be lethal while maintaining a level of honesty with people, which is extremely difficult to do. I ran the risk of slipping up with what I was telling people multiple times. With Perry for example, I was constantly feeding him information about Nuno and how he was out for Perry's blood for most of the game. At the same time, I had to keep track of what I told Perry and Nuno about each other to avoid being caught redhanded. I was very nearly caught a couple times too! This one time on New Torrin after Perry told me about a plan to test Nuno's loyalty without his knowledge, i typed IN TRIBE CHAT ACCIDENTALLY a message regarding Perry's plan that was only meant for Nuno so that I could continue to keep this mutually assured destruction at a detente. Holy shit did I shit bricks. Using my quick thinking, I was able to spin it to Perry as me trying to keep Nuno from targeting Perry, like I was merely snapping at Nuno and not actually spilling some tea I shouldn't have in Perry's eyes. And it worked. And then there was Zanegate, which turned out to not be the suicide I expected it to be because I took a bad situation and worked with it. Immediately following Zanegate, power players were ready to pick each other off (fucking finally), and who did they turn to? Me. They didn't turn to Nuno because his plans were clearly going off like landmines. They didn't turn to Tyler because he was surrounded by an alliance. They looked to me solve their power alliance struggles. But guess what? they should have voted me out instead of Sam. Alex went home after he turned to me, Dom went home after she turned to me, and Evan went home after he turned to me. I'm not anybody's fucking goat. I'm everybody's destroyer of worlds tbh, nice to fucking meet you.

Anyway, the task you assigned.

Great: Dom, Perry, Alex.

Good: Szymon, Wes, Evan.

Bad: Zane, Sam, Will.
