Board Thread:Survivor: Mongolia (Season 5)/@comment-1775521-20150201031827



Hello finalists, Congrats on making it this far. I’d love to sincerely say that, but sadly I can’t. All three of you are from different tribes and played extremely different games. Sadly, I don’t exactly love any of your strategies, but I guess they bested me if I’m sitting on the jury.

Bryce



Bryce, why are you still here? I’m starting with you because there’s not much more to say than that. You were nice when you were active, but all of a sudden dropped off the face of the Earth and not only self-voted once, but you were barred from the vote for not doing the challenges three times in a row. It’s really quite tragic that you are sitting there right now instead of me because you basically have zero game. It would be a miracle if you got anything higher than 2nd-Runner-Up. I’m not gonna bother asking you a question, because I doubt you will be on to answer it.

Martynas



Martynas, my friend from Greece. I wanted to work with you so many times in this game, but your allegiance to everybody besides me got in the way of that. I also don’t think that you had any game besides convincing Kaeden to vote me out at the final four. You didn’t flip, you didn’t make moves, you didn’t vote how you wanted, you just won challenges and did what other people told you to. You played a great physical game, an okay social game, and honestly a pretty terrible strategic game, and should you be rewarded for that? Many times in this game, the way you were talking made me know something was up. The vote where Bailey went home, I could tell that the vote wasn’t going to be Bryce. You were trying so hard to drill it into my head that it was him, and frankly it was fake and unnatural. Another instance of this is when you randomly asked me how I was before the vote at the final four. We’ve talked almost this entire game, and not once have you came to me and said “Hey, how are you?” besides then. Just saying that made me know for sure you were writing my name down. Do you think you deserve my vote, and if so, what did you do to deserve it?

Kaeden, Kaeden, Kaeden… You were my closest ally for the entirety of the game and obviously you don’t understand my loyalty to you all season considering the final vote. As early as the second vote on Gechii, you were being targeted by <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Josh and Ziggy <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">. I was able to convince them that the vote should definitely not be you, and Andrew needed to go. I wanted you in this game and did not think you deserved to go so soon. Then we ended up on Bayartai together. After our ally Jake had to leave the game, I was certain we were done right there if he had gone to tribal, luckily we didn’t and made the merge together. This is when I became very close to you. You were the only person that I trusted 100%. You were the only person that I told I had the idol. I came to you with every vote idea. You and I voted together every time except twice the whole game. The first time was part of a split vote, and the second time was when you decided to backstab me. If I was betrayed by anyone else in this game it wouldn’t have affected me, but from <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> you <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> of all people, it hurt. Whenever I felt like I was in trouble, instead of playing my idol, I gave it to you. Do you know why? It’s because if I went home, I wanted you to have the idol and use it as you wanted to improve your game. I was also afraid of wasting it because it would affect <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">our <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> game. Not <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">my <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> game, <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">our <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'TimesNewRoman';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> game. Every decision I made, I considered you in it. There was not a single time in this game where I ever even thought of writing your name down because you were my ally and friend. Obviously you couldn’t have thought the same if you decided to coldly vote me out right at the final four without even so much as a hint. You literally told me “Martynas is so desperate trying to vote you out lol” and then proceeded to vote me out. You completely duped me and it hurts because I wanted the underdog story of the tribe that sucked and only had two members in the top ten, make up a majority of the final three. Instead you bring someone who hasn’t spoken since like day 25 and someone who’s friends with almost everyone on the jury. What happened to us praising eachothers games to knock Martynas down a peg? I guess you have to do that alone now. Especially after hearing you say, “Start writing your FTC speech” it hurt to be then voted out by you. I’m glad I didn’t waste my time doing that because I would have looked so foolish preparing a speech only to then be voted out. Why didn’t I deserve to know that I was going? Why did you leave it to be a shock to me? A better question would be why did you decide to betray your friend and ally since day one to give someone who is liked by everyone on the jury one less obstacle to overcome? Please don’t make me vote for Bryce because he’s the only one that didn’t vote me out after saying the vote isn’t me. I’m well aware I played a game where I was a lying flipper-bitch the entire time, but you were the one person I never was going to betray so it really hurts to see you write my name down.

I honestly believe that the three representatives from the original tribes should be different, but instead we have you three. I’m done here, have a nice night.
