Board Thread:Survivor: Isla Del Sol (Season 10)/@comment-5001881-20150724215643

Hey Guys!!! I first just want to start off by thanking you all for playing so well and so hard in this game. I'm not trying to kiss your ass, but this truly has been one of the most challenging and crazy games I have ever played in, and I am beyond excited to be at this point of the game speaking to you all tonight. Alright, so as some of you may know I'm currently on a cruise ship (and therefore typing this on my phone) so bare with me as I try to make this short and sweet (with minimal typos lol). Okay. So, this game has really been an up and down roller coaster for me from day 1. I was stuck on two tribes that could just not pull out a win (and as a result have been to more tribal councils than any other player in this game). I was forced to grab onto the reigns when Andrei and Minke and others started confusing my alliance into voting for other people so we wouldn't have the majority. I won immunity after a series of really bad challenge performances. And finally, I created a lot of bonds with you all that not only got me to this point, but hopefully that will also transcend this game and turn into friendships outside of the game. I don't know what you all are thinking going into this tonight. Before I sat down to write this I had all these thoughts going through my head of: do I write out a play by play of my game? Do I give each jury member a shoutout and try to make it even more personalized? Should I attempt to mend any bonds in my speech that I may have broken in the last couple of tribals? And ultimately I decided that it was best to let my game speak for itself. I know that I played a strong social game, in which I was approachable, likable and charismatic enough to have multiple people trust me and want to work with me. I know that I played a strong strategic game, in which I maneuvered through many votes both in power and in minority. I know that my physical game was not the best it could've been, but I feel like I shined when I needed to and pulled out the win when it was most important. Basically, what I'm hoping to hear from you guys is that you feel the same way. I hope that you have questions, comments, concerns about my game, and I would love to answer any and all that will help you get a better understanding of the moves I made and how I got myself here. Nobody's perfect. I know that. But all I'm asking you to do is look at the high points of my game and compare them to the lows. I think you'll find that my highs are much more impressive and "million-dollar-worthy" than my lows. I would like to also congratulate Zane and Grace, two amazing players who deserve to be here as much as I do. But where I disagree with many others is who deserves to win this game. If it were up to me, I'd analyze all the strongpoints of each, look at them against the weaknesses, and then come to the conclusion. Only a whole hearted look at each of our games will produce the proper winner. So, I am turning it over to you all, and I hope that you are as excited about this Final Tribal Council as I am, because I'm sure it'll be an amazing ending to an even more amazing game.
