Tyler's Rites of Passage:

JL:  You seem like a very nice guy overall and I enjoyed the chats we did manage to have near the start of the game. I'm sorry you felt the need to Quit Day 3 but you did what you felt you had to. Hope all is well with you.

Jack:  Probably the youngest person in this cast! It was so fun to chat with you when you got to open up, I thought you were a really nice person who got hit with some bad luck and couldn't recover. I hope your performance of "The Titanic" went well and you dazzled them all!

Dylan:  I never met you but it sounds like OG Karon was the life of the party, so I'm sure your a fun person! Hopefully we get the chance to meet after all this!

Fathan: Fathan! Clearly a gamer, you seemed to be thinking out scenarios all the time. I think if you got further in this game you would have been a FORCE against the rest of us. I had a great time talking with you throughout this game and hoep you are doing great!

Dan:  I also never got to meet you but I assume you are also fun much like Dylan, with the OG Karon partybus! Same thoughs as with Dylan, hopefully we get a chance to meet!

Chris:  Probably the hardest vote before the merge. Losing that challenge was heartbreaking I really didn't want any of to go. You are a very busy person but I loved when we did have the opportunity to chat. I hope you are doing well with teaching all those children!

Maynor:  I probably chatted with you the least after merge hit, but you struck me as a very thoughful and intelligent person. I was afraid of what you could do in this game and I think we are all lucky you didn't make it further. When we did talk it was very nice and it's always fun to talk about subjects I am not as familiar with, but I appreciated you bearing with me when we did! I hope you are doing well.

Derek:  Probably one of the nicest people in this cast, amazing and chatty from the get-go. You made me feel the most welcome out of the people I hadn't yet met going into merge, and I was so happy we got the chance to team up! After you were gone I was so sad we couldn't talk anymore, because we were just going on and on for a few hours a day in the short time we had playing together. I hope school is going well, and they aren't overworking you at your job. Graduation is getting ever closer too and I know your excited!

Evan:  The strategy man! Clearly very intelligent and somebody with a very tactful mind. We were never really on the same side but we still were able to talk about our lives and put the game aside to casually get to know each other. Neither of us are that great at icebreakers but we still got there! One day we will all be hearing your name in the news and it will be for very good reasons with everything you told me! I hope everything is going well for you since we last talked.

Chloe:  My OG friend! You and I were soooo close at the start of this game and I think after the swap when we reunited we could never fully get back on the same page. I know you were sick and I hope that cough finally went away, you were still trucking through school. Even though we never voted together after re-uniting I was still so glad we got to play in the merge together. You are a FORCE in this game and so fun just in general. You were bringing the fun on OG Phra Nang and it stayed with you in the merge. The decision to vote you out was very difficult, and I wrestled with the idea for over 24 hours, you are not an easy person to let down and I knew I was doing just that. Right down to the last minute you were still great and never held a grudge for anything, and I respect you so much as a player and person for everything that you are. Stay great Chloe.

Alex:  Somebody who I never thought I would connect with as much as I did. We barely talked the first couple rounds of the merge, then suddenly, we talked all the time! You were a surprise hding out with the Karon's but I am so happy we got the chance to talk and meet each other. Hopefully you are serenading everyone with your lovely singing voice to keep it all jovial at Ponderosa. You were always straight up with me in the game and it's something I always appreciated, your a very nice person and I hope you have gotten a chance to reach out with everyone in this game, so they all got a chance to talk with the real you!

Anthony:  My horror movie buddy! Also the biggest threat to win in my eyes. You are so easy to talk with and I knew it wasn't just me you had to have been chatting up! But you still chose to work with lil ol' me for most of this game. And it was so fun! We had deep game conversations during a lot of the merge up until the end there. I know it got a bit weird at the end, and you got the flu which certainly didn't help (hope your doing better btw), and suddenly we became rivals. I seriously thought you would take me out and I count my lucky stars you didn't, but you are a STRONG player in every aspect. You did well in challenges, very smart, and clearly very social. The whole Survivor package! It was an honor to play with you.

Jason:  Another one of my OG buds! You were in my first alliance way back when we were trying to come to terms with the quit that happened, and we have been working with each other ever since. Through the highs and lows, through the high school floats and us both freaking out together during every round to make sure we'd survive, you always managed to keep me smiling and appreciate you as a friend and partner in this game. Writing down your name was the hardest decision I had to make in this game, but I know you understand that. But, overall I'n not complaining that somehow we managed to get ourselves into the Final 4 togehter from the very start. You are a fierce Qween and I am so so so happy that we are friends, it's been such a fun ride Jason, and I already miss you dearly. Also, thanks for the kind words you gave me when I needed real life help, you have no idea what that meant to me. Stay Awesome.

Overall, this bit was something I was saving for getting voted out, since I never assume I will get anywhere near the endgame. Who knows maybe everyone will get to hear this twice there's still time. But I had such a fun time during this game. I went through a lot of highs and lows, but if you didn't then were you even playing an engaging game?? Everybody I met is special to me in there own way and I am so happy to hopefully be able to walk away from this experience with a new group of friends. Everybody I meet changes me a bit for the better, and you all help make me feel so much more confident in my ability to connect as a person to another person. I have struggled with this my whole life, and the Org community in general is so accepting of almost anybody, and y'all were no exception. Thanks for putting up with my nonsense all game long and I hope you all had just as much fun as I did! Much Love, Mad Respect for everyone.
